[RFC PATCH v1 00/25] Enable PV backends with Xen/KVM emulation

[David Woodhouse]

Now that the basic platform support is hopefully on the cusp of being 
merged, here's phase 2 which wires up the XenBus and PV back ends.

It starts with a basic single-tenant internal implementation of a 
XenStore, with a copy-on-write tree, watches, transactions, quotas.

Then we introduce operations tables for the grant table, event channel,
foreignmen and xenstore operations so that in addition to using the Xen
libraries for those, QEMU can use its internal emulated versions.

A little bit of cleaning up of header files, and we can enable the build
of xen-bus in the CONFIG_XEN_EMU build, and run a Xen guest with an
actual PV disk...

   qemu-system-x86_64 -serial mon:stdio -M q35 -display none -m 1G -smp 2 \
      -accel kvm,xen-version=0x4000e,kernel-irqchip=split \
      -kernel bzImage -append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/xvda1 selinux=0" \
      -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora28.qcow2,if=none,id=disk \
      -device xen-disk,drive=disk,vdev=xvda

The main thing that isn't working here is migration. I've implemented it 
for the internal xenstore and the unit tests exercise it, but the 
existing PV back ends don't support it, perhaps partly because support 
for guest transparent live migration support isn't upstream in Xen yet. 
So the disk doesn't come back correctly after migration. I'm content 
with that for 8.0 though.

The other pre-existing constraint is that only the block back end has
yet been ported to the "new" XenBus infrastructure, and is actually
capable of creating its own backend nodes. Again, I can live with
that for 8.0. Maybe this will motivate us to finally get round to
converting the rest off XenLegacyBackend and killing it.

We also don't have a simple way to perform grant mapping of multiple
guest pages to contiguous addresses, as we can under real Xen. So we
don't advertise max-ring-page-order for xen-disk in the emulated mode.
Fixing that — if we actually want to — would probably require mapping
RAM from an actual backing store object, so that it can be mapped again
at a different location for the PV back end to see.
