Subject: [PATCH v5 COLOPre 05/18] tools/libxc: support to resume uncooperative HVM guests
Date: Thu, 17 Dec 2015 15:48:09 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1450338502-27335-6-git-send-email-wency@cn.fujitsu.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1450338502-27335-1-git-send-email-wency@cn.fujitsu.com>

Befor this patch:
1. suspend
a. PVHVM and PV: we use the same way to suspend the guest (send the suspend
   request to the guest). If the guest doesn't support evtchn, the xenstore
   variant will be used, suspending the guest via XenBus control node.
b. pure HVM: we call xc_domain_shutdown(..., SHUTDOWN_suspend) to suspend
   the guest

2. Resume:
a. fast path
   In this case, we don't change the guest's state. And we will call
   libxl__domain_resume(..., 1) to resume the guest.
   PV:       modify the return code to 1, and than call the domctl
             XEN_DOMCTL_resumedomain
   PVHVM:    same with PV
   pure HVM: do nothing in modify_returncode, and than call the domctl:
             XEN_DOMCTL_resumedomain
b. slow
   Used when the guest's state have been changed. And we will call
   libxl__domain_resume(..., 0) to resume the guest.
   PV:       update start info, and reset all secondary CPU states. Than call
             the domctl: XEN_DOMCTL_resumedomain
   PVHVM:    can not be resumed. You will get the following error message:
                 "Cannot resume uncooperative HVM guests"
   purt HVM: same with PVHVM

After this patch:
1. suspend
   unchanged

2. Resume
a. fast path:
   unchanged
b. slow
   PV:       unchanged
   PVHVM:    call XEN_DOMCTL_resumedomain to resume the guest. Because we
             don't modify the return code, the PV driver will disconnect
             and reconnect. I am not sure if we should update start info
             and reset all secondary CPU states.
   Pure HVM: call XEN_DOMCTL_resumedomain to resume the guest.

Under COLO, we will update the guest's state(modify memory, cpu's registers,
device status...). In this case, we cannot use the fast path to resume it.
Keep the return code 0, and use a slow path to resume the guest. While
resuming HVM using slow path is not supported currently, this patch is to
make the resume call do not fail.
