      tracing/events: Add bounce tracing to swiotbl · 2b2b614d
      Zoltan Kiss authored
      Ftrace is currently not able to detect when SWIOTLB has to do double buffering.
      Under Xen you can only see it indirectly in function_graph, when
      xen_swiotlb_map_page() doesn't stop after range_straddles_page_boundary(), but
      calls spinlock functions, memcpy() and xen_phys_to_bus() as well. This patch
      introduces the swiotlb:swiotlb_bounced event, which also prints out the
      following informations to help you find out why bouncing happened:
      
      dev_name: 0000:08:00.0 dma_mask=ffffffffffffffff dev_addr=9149f000 size=32768
      swiotlb_force=0
      
      If you use Xen, and (dev_addr + size + 1) > dma_mask, the buffer is out of the
      device's DMA range. If swiotlb_force == 1, you should really change the kernel
      parameters. Otherwise, the buffer is not contiguous in mfn space.

      xen/hvc: If we use xen_raw_printk let it also work on HVM guests. · 04b772d2
      Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk authored
      The xen_raw_printk works great for debugging purposes. We use
      for PV guests and we can also use it for HVM guests.
      
      However, for HVM guests we have a fallback of using the 0xe9
      port in case the hypervisor does not support an HVM guest of
      using the console_io hypercall. As such lets use 0xe9 during
      early bootup, and once the hyper-page is setup and if the
      console_io hypercall is supported - use that. Otherwise we
      will fallback to using the 0xe9 after early bootup.
      
      We also alter the return value for dom0_write_console to return
      an error value instead of zero. The HVC API has been supporting
      returning error values for quite some time.
      
      P.S.
      To use (and to see the output in the Xen ring buffer) one has to build
      the hypervisor with 'debug=y'.
