Under Xen the toolstack is responsible for managing the domains in
the system, e.g. creating, destroying, and otherwise manipulating
them.
To do this it uses a number of ioctls on the /proc/xen/privcmd
device. Most of these (the MMAPBATCH ones) simply set things up such
that a subsequenct mmap call will map the desired guest memory. Since
valgrind has no way of knowing what the memory contains we assume
that it is all initialised (to do otherwise would require valgrind to
be observing the complete state of the system and not just the given
process).
The most interesting ioctl is XEN_IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL which
allows the toolstack to make arbitrary hypercalls. Although the
mechanism here is specific to the OS of the guest running the
toolstack the hypercalls themselves are defined solely by the
hypervisor. Therefore I have split support for this ioctl into a part
in syswrap-linux.c which handles the ioctl itself and passes things
onto a new syswrap-xen.c which handles the specifics of the
hypercalls themselves. Porting this to another OS should just be a
matter of wiring up syswrap-$OS.c to decode the ioctl and call into
syswrap-xen.c. In the future we may want to split this into
syswrap-$ARCH-xen.c but for now this is x86 only.
The hypercall coverage here is pretty small but is enough to get
reasonable(-ish) results out of the xl toolstack when listing,
creating and destroying domains.
One issue is that the hypercalls which are exlusively used by the
toolstacks (as opposed to those used by guest operating systems) are
not considered a stable ABI, since the hypervisor and the lowlevel
tools are considered a matched pair. This covers the sysctl and
domctl hypercalls which are a fairly large chunk of the support
here. I'm not sure how to solve this without invoking a massive
amount of duplication. Right now this targets the Xen unstable
interface (which will shortly be released as Xen 4.2), perhaps I can
get away with deferring this problem until the first change .
On the plus side the vast majority of hypercalls are not of interest
to the toolstack (they are used by guests) so we can get away without
implementing them.
Note: a hypercall only reads as many words from the ioctl arg
struct as there are actual arguments to that hypercall and the
toolstack only initialises the arguments which are used. However
there is no space in the DEFN_PRE_TEMPLATE prototype to allow this to
be communicated from syswrap-xen.c back to syswrap-linux.c. Since a
hypercall can have at most 5 arguments I have hackily stolen ARG8 for
this purpose.

I tried using 'svn merge' to do the merge but it did a terrible job and
there were bazillions of conflicts. So instead I just took the diff between
the branch and trunk at r10155, applied the diff to the trunk, 'svn add'ed
the added files (no files needed to be 'svn remove'd) and committed.

interface, except for the syscall numbers, into that. Mostly this
means moving include/vki-*.h to include/vki/vki-*.h.
include/pub_tool_basics.h previously dragged in the entire kernel
interface. I've done away with that, so that modules which need to
see the kernel interface now have to include pub_{core,tool}_vki.h
explicitly. This is why there are many modified .c files -- they have
all acquired an extra #include line.
This certainly breaks all platforms except x86. Will fix shortly.
