git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip Pull x86 boot updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest changes in this cycle were: - reworking of the e820 code: separate in-kernel and boot-ABI data structures and apply a whole range of cleanups to the kernel side.

2017-01-28x86/boot/e820: Prefix the E820_* type names with "E820_TYPE_"Ingo Molnar
So there's a number of constants that start with "E820" but which are not types - these create a confusing mixture when seen together with 'enum e820_type' values: E820MAP E820NR E820_X_MAX E820MAX To better differentiate the 'enum e820_type' values prefix them with E820_TYPE_.

In line with the rename to 'struct e820_array', harmonize the naming of common e820 table variable names as well: e820 => e820_array e820_saved => e820_array_saved e820_map => e820_array initial_e820 => e820_array_init This makes the variable names more consistent and easier to grep for.

2017-01-28x86/boot/e820: Rename the basic e820 data types to 'struct e820_entry' and ↵Ingo Molnar
'struct e820_array' The 'e820entry' and 'e820map' names have various annoyances: - the missing underscore departs from the usual kernel style and makes the code look weird, - in the past I kept confusing the 'map' with the 'entry', because a 'map' is ambiguous in that regard, - it's not really clear from the 'e820map' that this is a regular C array. Rename them to 'struct e820_entry' and 'struct e820_array' accordingly. ( Leave the legacy UAPI header alone but do the rename in the bootparam.h and e820/types.h file - outside tools relying on these defines should either adjust their code, or should use the legacy header, or should create their private copies for the definitions. ) No change in functionality.

2015-02-13tools/lguest: handle device reset correctly in example launcher.Rusty Russell

2015-02-11lguest: support backdoor window.Rusty Russell
The VIRTIO_PCI_CAP_PCI_CFG in the PCI virtio 1.0 spec allows access to the BAR registers without mapping them. This is a compulsory feature, and we implement it here. There are some subtleties involving access widths which we should note: 4.1.4.7.1 Device Requirements: PCI configuration access capability ... Upon detecting driver write access to pci_cfg_data, the device MUST execute a write access at offset cap.offset at BAR selected by cap.bar using the first cap.length bytes from pci_cfg_data. Upon detecting driver read access to pci_cfg_data, the device MUST execute a read access of length cap.length at offset cap.offset at BAR selected by cap.bar and store the first cap.length bytes in pci_cfg_data. So, for a write, we copy into the pci_cfg_data window, then write from there out to the BAR. This works correctly if cap.length != width of write. Similarly, for a read, we read into window from the BAR then read the value from there. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2015-02-11lguest: Convert net device to virtio 1.0 PCI.Rusty Russell
The only real change here (other than using the PCI bus) is that we didn't negotiate VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF before, so the format of the packet header changed with virtio 1.0; we need TUNSETVNETHDRSZ on the tun fd to tell it about the extra two bytes.

2012-10-22lguest: fix block request handling in example launcher.Rusty Russell
virtio requests are scatter-gather-style descriptors, but no assumptions should be made about the layout. lguest was lazy here, but saved by the fact that the network device hands all requests to tun (which does it correctly) and console and random devices simply use readv and writev. Block devices, however, are broken: we convert to iovecs internally, just make sure we handle the correctly. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
