For details on the hypercall please see commit
c58ae69360ccf2495a19bf4ca107e21cf873c75b (VCPUOP_register_vcpu_info) and
the c/s 23143 (git commit
6b063a4a6f44245a727aa04ef76408b2e00af9c7)
(x86: move pv-only members of struct vcpu to struct pv_vcpu)
that introduced the regression.
The current code allows the PVHVM guest to make this hypercall.
But for PVHVM guest it always returns -EINVAL (-22) for Xen 4.2
and above. Xen 4.1 and earlier worked.
The reason is that the check in map_vcpu_info would fail
at:
if ( v->arch.vcpu_info_mfn != INVALID_MFN )
The reason is that the vcpu_info_mfn for PVHVM guests ends up by
defualt with the value of zero (introduced by c/s 23143).
The code in vcpu_initialise which initialized vcpu_info_mfn to a
valid value (INVALID_MFN), would never be called for PVHVM:
if ( is_hvm_domain(d) )
{
rc = hvm_vcpu_initialise(v);
goto done;
}
v->arch.pv_vcpu.vcpu_info_mfn = INVALID_MFN;
while previously it would be:
v->arch.vcpu_info_mfn = INVALID_MFN;
[right at the start of the function in Xen 4.1]
This fixes the problem with Linux advertising this error:
register_vcpu_info failed: err=-22
