Subject: [PATCH v2 00/21] dom0less step1: boot multiple domains from device tree
Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2018 16:11:57 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.10.1807061523160.13502@sstabellini-ThinkPad-X260> (raw)

Hi all,

This is first step toward "dom0less" as discussed in the various
certifications related threads and discussions.

The goal of this series is to enable Xen to boot multiple domains in
parallel, in addition to dom0, out of information found on device tree.

The device tree based boot protocol is extended to carry information
about DomUs. Based on that information, Xen creates and starts one or
more DomUs. DomUs created this way don't have access to xenstore for the
moment. This is actually OK, because this is meant for mission critical
applications that typically only access directly assigned devices. They
cannot tolerate interference or increased IRQ latency due to PV
protocols. Device assignment is not actually covered by this series, it
will be added later.

DomUs can print to the Xen serial using the CONSOLEIO hypercalls. A
virtual PL011 is also emulated for them so that they can use their
regular PL011 driver. This allows unmodified guests to run as Xen on ARM
guests -- no Xen support needed at all. Console input also comes from
the Xen serial: the Ctrl-AAA switching mechanism is extended to switch
among domUs, dom0, and Xen.

Cheers,

Stefano
