[PATCH 1/4] xen kconfig: keep XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND builtin

[Andrew Jones]

When XEN_XENBUS_FRONTEND gets selected as a module it can lead to
unbootable configs. If we need it, then we should just build it in.

[PATCH 2/4] xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps

[Andrew Jones]

PV-on-HVM guests may want to use the xen keyboard/mouse frontend, but
they don't use the xen frame buffer frontend. For this case it doesn't
make much sense for INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND to depend on
XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND. The opposite direction always makes more sense, i.e.
if you're using xenfb, then you'll want xenkbd. Switch the dependencies.

But here you need to either depend on or select INPUT as select does not
resolve dependencies for selected symbol.

Would I actually need 'select INPUT' and select 'INPUT_MISC'? Maybe
'depends on' would just be cleaner and safer. I'll send a V2.

[PATCH 2/4 v2] xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps

[Andrew Jones]

PV-on-HVM guests may want to use the xen keyboard/mouse frontend, but
they don't use the xen frame buffer frontend. For this case it doesn't
make much sense for INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND to depend on
XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND. The opposite direction always makes more sense, i.e.
if you're using xenfb, then you'll want xenkbd. Switch the dependencies.

Ok, but PV does?

That sounds like it would be universal irregardless if it is
PV or PVonHVM?

This patch makes it such that if you want to use both, then you must
select both. It also says that if you want FB, then you need the
KBD. However, if you only want the KBD then you're fine with just
that. So there isn't any risk of breaking configs designed to use
FB, because FB should be manually selected for those configs anyway.

Dmitry,

I am OK with this patch. Should I pick it up on my tree for 3.4 or
are you OK doing it via your tree?

This looks OK. Let me test this out to see if there is any silly

There's currently an issue using EXPERT. It doesn't make this
patch wrong, but any users that would want to turn EXPERT on, in
order to turn DOM0 off, would find that their configs have gotten
twisted in other ways as well. I've posted a patch for EXPERT, and
if it gets merged, then I really can't see any good arguments against
this patch.

> Describe dom0 support in the config menu and supply help text for it.

So I had this reply in my draft and forgot to send it. Sorry about that.

My understanding from the converstion was that we try to "squash"
the XEN_DOM0 option so that it would not be present. But that did not
work as it lead to a string of X86_LOCAL_APIC, X86_IO_ACPI, ACPI, PCI,
and so on. Then the .h with #define XEN_something based on those
symbols, but that is not the job of a header file. It is the job
of Kconfig.

The other way was to squash this in with the backend support. Since
we are moving away from having one initial domain, to having
multitple "initial domains" (priviliged domains) where each can
server as a backend.  However (quoting Jeremy) "it is more of
disaggregating the privilege to reduce the amount concentrated in any one
part.  Backends don't need any more privilege than to be able to
access the specific device(s) they're being the backend for."

Interestingly, that means DOM0 is kind of .. well, it should be
no different from a normal HVM guest. The old-style PV dom0 remains
would be ..well, almost nothing. The Xen MMU, and Xen SWIOTLB - those
are the ones that pop in mind for Dom0, but they are also used
for PV PCI. In fact, all (I think?) of the CONFIG_XEN_DOM0 functionality
can be _used_ in a PV guest. The 'if (initial_xen_domain()' should
probably be addressed first and to figure which one of those can be
altered as the "backend domain" can run both frontend and backend drivers
(oh joy!). So more relaxing those config options and/or "if (xen..)".

Anyhow, back to the HVM dom0 - that is in the future - and it is going
to take a couple of years to get it. I would rather not shoot my
foot by removing these CONFIG_* option until we get a better grasp of how
we want to deal with the PV hybrid.

What I am saying is that I don't know what the right answer is,
but I don't believe the patch below is it. I wish I had a better
answer in terms of "do this instead", but none of those worked.

Perhaps we can brainstorm some of this at XenSummit by which time
I hope Mukesh's PV hybrid work will be completed and a lot of the
work on the toolstack for backend drivers will be laid out.

I am not sure what this patch gets us. If this is to minimize the
size of the module - so say it gets loaded, but tmem-enabled is 
not set nor cleancache and we just have it consuming memory - we can do it
via returning -ENODEV on the module load.

Like this (completley untested nor compiled tested):

.. otherwise the driver might still reside in the memory consuming

But why compile in something that one may never use? At least with this patch
I'll have a choice to turn it off if I don't need it.
For example when I build hardened kernel, I'd like to turn of all unnecessary
features for a particular config (i.e. reduce attack surface as much as possible).

Then this patch is misleading. It should state at the start
what its purpose is. It sounds like adding the description is just
a way for the real purpose of this patch - which is to disable tmem.

The 'tmem' gets turned off if you disable cleancache. Can't you just
disable cleancache in your hardened config?

[PATCH 2/4] xen kconfig: relax INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND deps

[Andrew Jones]

PV-on-HVM guests may want to use the xen keyboard/mouse frontend, but
they don't use the xen frame buffer frontend. For this case it doesn't
make much sense for INPUT_XEN_KBDDEV_FRONTEND to depend on
XEN_FBDEV_FRONTEND. The opposite direction always makes more sense, i.e.
if you're using xenfb, then you'll want xenkbd. Switch the dependencies.
