2008-06-02xen: resume timers on all vcpusJeremy Fitzhardinge
On resume, the vcpu timer modes will not be restored. The timer infrastructure doesn't do this for us, since it assumes the cpus are offline. We can just poke the other vcpus into the right mode directly though. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2008-06-02xen: restore vcpu_info mappingJeremy Fitzhardinge
If we're using vcpu_info mapping, then make sure its restored on all processors before relasing them from stop_machine. The only complication is that if this fails, we can't continue because we've already made assumptions that the mapping is available (baked in calls to the _direct versions of the functions, for example). Fortunately this can only happen with a 32-bit hypervisor, which may possibly run out of mapping space. On a 64-bit hypervisor, this is a non-issue.

2008-05-27xen: implement save/restoreJeremy Fitzhardinge
This patch implements Xen save/restore and migration. Saving is triggered via xenbus, which is polled in drivers/xen/manage.c. When a suspend request comes in, the kernel prepares itself for saving by: 1 - Freeze all processes. This is primarily to prevent any partially-completed pagetable updates from confusing the suspend process. If CONFIG_PREEMPT isn't defined, then this isn't necessary. 2 - Suspend xenbus and other devices 3 - Stop_machine, to make sure all the other vcpus are quiescent. The Xen tools require the domain to run its save off vcpu0. 4 - Within the stop_machine state, it pins any unpinned pgds (under construction or destruction), performs canonicalizes various other pieces of state (mostly converting mfns to pfns), and finally 5 - Suspend the domain Restore reverses the steps used to save the domain, ending when all the frozen processes are thawed.
