[RFC PATCH v11bis 00/26] Emulated XenStore and PV backend support


From: David Woodhouse
Subject: [RFC PATCH v11bis 00/26] Emulated XenStore and PV backend support
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2023 09:44:10 +0000

The non-RFC patch submisson¹ is just the basic platform support for Xen
on KVM. This RFC series is phase 2, adding an internal XenStore and
hooking up the PV back end drivers to that and the emulated grant tables
and event channels.

With this, we can boot a Xen guest with PV disk, under KVM. Full support
for migration isn't there yet because it's actually missing in the PV
back end drivers in the first place (perhaps because upstream Xen doesn't
yet have guest transparent live migration support anyway). I'm assuming
that when the first round is merged and we drop the [RFC] from this set,
that won't be a showstopper for now?

I'd be particularly interested in opinions on the way I implemented
serialization for the XenStore, by creating a GByteArray and then dumping
it with VMSTATE_VARRAY_UINT32_ALLOC().

I may eventually attempt to make xs_node_walk() not actually recursive,
if I can do so without my brain exploding. Since the first time the
XenStore code was showed, I've stopped the XsNode from being an actual
Object; that just made it larger for almost no benefit.
