From: David Woodhouse <dwmw@amazon.co.uk>

Include basic support for setting HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_IRQ to the global
vector method HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_VECTOR, which is handled in-kernel
by raising the vector whenever the vCPU's vcpu_info->evtchn_upcall_pending
flag is set.

Doesn't this always result in -ENOSYS?

Hm?

Even at this point in the series, HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_VECTOR works
and doesn't result in -ENOSYS.

But even if xen_evtchn_set_callback_param() *was* a stub that just
returned -ENOSYS at this point, that would be OK, surely? We add the
(other) HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_* support later, which warrants
separate review because of the GSI and iothread lock fun.

I'm just having a hard time seeing why passing 0 to 
xen_evtchn_set_callback_param() does anything useful...

+    switch (param >> CALLBACK_VIA_TYPE_SHIFT) {
+    case HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_VECTOR: {
+        struct kvm_xen_hvm_attr xa = {
+            .type = KVM_XEN_ATTR_TYPE_UPCALL_VECTOR,
+            .u.vector = (uint8_t)param,
+        };

HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_VECTOR is 2 AFAICT, so it won't hit that case. 
Also, you appear to be passing the unshifted param to kernel anyway.

What is the call trying to achieve?

Zero is HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_GSI, with GSI==0. It's basically
disabling event channel delivery for the new kernel.

AFAICT it is doing nothing at this point. Unless I am going insane it 
results in this codepath:

+    default:
+        ret = -ENOSYS;
+        break;
+    }
+
+    if (!ret) {
+        s->callback_param = param;
+        s->evtchn_in_kernel = in_kernel;
+    }

So it doesn't result in any cleanup. What am I missing?

Indeed, it doesn't result in any cleanup at *this* point in the series
because HVM_PARAM_CALLBACK_TYPE_GSI hasn't been implemented yet; it's
in a later patch.

The series is broken up into sensible individual patches for review,
not so people can actually *run* with some partial subset of them.

Otherwise I'd have to implement vmstate migration versioning for every
change in the series, and that way lies madness :)

I *will* add a comment in the code explaining what zero means though,
and note in the commit message that it doesn't actually have any effect
will, but will do in a few patches' time.

That's fine. It's just confusing for a reviewer to know whether you are 
intentionally introducing code that has no effect, or whether that is a bug.

That would certainly help, thanks.
