2015-03-16xen: balloon: Use static attribute groups for sysfs entriesTakashi Iwai1-25/+20
Instead of manual calls of device_create_file(), device_remove_file() and sysfs_create_group(), assign static attribute groups to the device to register. This simplifies the code and avoids possible races. Signed-off-by: Takashi Iwai <tiwai@suse.de> Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com>
2013-06-28xen: Convert printks to pr_<level>Joe Perches1-2/+4
Convert printks to pr_<level> (excludes printk(KERN_DEBUG...) to be more consistent throughout the xen subsystem. Add pr_fmt with KBUILD_MODNAME or "xen:" KBUILD_MODNAME Coalesce formats and add missing word spaces Add missing newlines Align arguments and reflow to 80 columns Remove DRV_NAME from formats as pr_fmt adds the same content This does change some of the prefixes of these messages but it also does make them more consistent.

2012-03-22Merge tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xenLinus Torvalds1-1/+1
Pull xen updates from Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk: "which has three neat features: - PV multiconsole support, so that there can be hvc1, hvc2, etc; This can be used in HVM and in PV mode. - P-state and C-state power management driver that uploads said power management data to the hypervisor. It also inhibits cpufreq scaling drivers to load so that only the hypervisor can make power management decisions - fixing a weird perf bug. There is one thing in the Kconfig that you won't like: "default y if (X86_ACPI_CPUFREQ = y || X86_POWERNOW_K8 = y)" (note, that it all depends on CONFIG_XEN which depends on CONFIG_PARAVIRT which by default is off). I've a fix to convert that boolean expression into "default m" which I am going to post after the cpufreq git pull - as the two patches to make this work depend on a fix in Dave Jones's tree. - Function Level Reset (FLR) support in the Xen PCI backend. Fixes: - Kconfig dependencies for Xen PV keyboard and video - Compile warnings and constify fixes - Change over to use percpu_xxx instead of this_cpu_xxx" Fix up trivial conflicts in drivers/tty/hvc/hvc_xen.c due to changes to a removed commit. * tag 'stable/for-linus-3.4-tag' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen: xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps xen/acpi-processor: C and P-state driver that uploads said data to hypervisor. xen: constify all instances of "struct attribute_group" xen/xenbus: ignore console/0 hvc_xen: introduce HVC_XEN_FRONTEND hvc_xen: implement multiconsole support hvc_xen: support PV on HVM consoles xenbus: don't free other end details too early xen/enlighten: Expose MWAIT and MWAIT_LEAF if hypervisor OKs it. xen/setup/pm/acpi: Remove the call to boot_option_idle_override. xenbus: address compiler warnings xen: use this_cpu_xxx replace percpu_xxx funcs xen/pciback: Support pci_reset_function, aka FLR or D3 support. pci: Introduce __pci_reset_function_locked to be used when holding device_lock. xen: Utilize the restore_msi_irqs hook.

2011-07-08xen: tmem: self-ballooning and frontswap-selfshrinkingDan Magenheimer1-0/+2
This patch introduces two in-kernel drivers for Xen transcendent memory ("tmem") functionality that complement cleancache and frontswap. Both use control theory to dynamically adjust and optimize memory utilization. Selfballooning controls the in-kernel Xen balloon driver, targeting a goal value (vm_committed_as), thus pushing less frequently used clean page cache pages (through the cleancache code) into Xen tmem where Xen can balance needs across all VMs residing on the physical machine. Frontswap-selfshrinking controls the number of pages in frontswap, driving it towards zero (effectively doing a partial swapoff) when in-kernel memory pressure subsides, freeing up RAM for other VMs. More detail is provided in the header comment of xen-selfballooning.c.

2011-03-16xen-balloon: Move core balloon functionality out of moduleDaniel De Graaf1-0/+256
The basic functionality of ballooning pages is useful for Xen drivers in general. Rather than require a dependency on the balloon module, split the functionality that is reused into the core. The balloon module is still required to follow ballooning requests from xenstore or to view balloon statistics in sysfs.
