xenbus: add xenbus_device parameter to xenbus_read_driver_state()

treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types

2026-02-21T09:02:28+00:00

This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union object instances: Single allocations: kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...) Array allocations: kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...) Flex array allocations: kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...) are replaced with: kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...) (where TYPE may also be *VAR) The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning "TYPE *". Signed-off-by: Kees Cook

x86: always initialize xen-swiotlb when xen-pcifront is enabling

2023-07-31T15:54:27+00:00

Remove the dangerous late initialization of xen-swiotlb in pci_xen_swiotlb_init_late and instead just always initialize xen-swiotlb in the boot code if CONFIG_XEN_PCIDEV_FRONTEND is enabled and Xen PV PCI is possible. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Reviewed-by: Juergen Gross

PCI: Introduce pci_dev_for_each_resource()

2023-04-04T15:43:52+00:00

Instead of open-coding it everywhere introduce a tiny helper that can be used to iterate over each resource of a PCI device, and convert the most obvious users into it. While at it drop doubled empty line before pdev_sort_resources(). No functional changes intended.

xen: make remove callback of xen driver void returned

2022-12-15T15:06:10+00:00

Since commit fc7a6209d571 ("bus: Make remove callback return void") forces bus_type::remove be void-returned, it doesn't make much sense for any bus based driver implementing remove callbalk to return non-void to its caller. This change is for xen bus based drivers.

xen/pcifront: move xenstore config scanning into sub-function

2022-10-07T05:36:44+00:00

pcifront_try_connect() and pcifront_attach_devices() share a large chunk of duplicated code for reading the config information from Xenstore, which only differs regarding calling pcifront_rescan_root() or pcifront_scan_root(). Put that code into a new sub-function. It is fine to always call pcifront_rescan_root() from that common function, as it will fallback to pcifront_scan_root() if the domain/bus combination isn't known yet (and pcifront_scan_root() should never be called for an already known domain/bus combination anyway). In order to avoid duplicate messages for the fallback case move the check for domain/bus not known to the beginning of pcifront_rescan_root(). While at it fix the error reporting in case the root-xx node had the wrong format. As the return value of pcifront_try_connect() and pcifront_attach_devices() are not used anywhere make those functions return void. As an additional bonus this removes the dubious return of -EFAULT in case of an unexpected driver state. Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross Reviewed-by: Jason Andryuk Signed-off-by: Juergen Gross

xen-pcifront: Handle missed Connected state

2022-10-04T15:47:03+00:00

An HVM guest with linux stubdomain and 2 PCI devices failed to start as libxl timed out waiting for the PCI devices to be added. It happens intermittently but with some regularity. libxl wrote the two xenstore entries for the devices, but then timed out waiting for backend state 4 (Connected) - the state stayed at 7 (Reconfiguring). (PCI passthrough to an HVM with stubdomain is PV passthrough to the stubdomain and then HVM passthrough with the QEMU inside the stubdomain.) The stubdomain kernel never printed "pcifront pci-0: Installing PCI frontend", so it seems to have missed state 4 which would have called pcifront_try_connect() -> pcifront_connect_and_init_dma() Have pcifront_detach_devices() special-case state Initialised and call pcifront_connect_and_init_dma(). Don't use pcifront_try_connect() because that sets the xenbus state which may throw off the backend. After connecting, skip the remainder of detach_devices since none have been initialized yet. When the backend switches to Reconfigured, pcifront_attach_devices() will pick them up again.
