Juergen Gross 2f69a110e7 xen/xenbus: fix locking
Commit 060eabe8fb ("xenbus/backend: Protect xenbus callback with
lock") introduced a bug by holding a lock while calling a function
which might schedule.

Fix that by using a semaphore instead.

Dongli Zhang 8130b9d5b5 xenbus: req->err should be updated before req->state
This patch adds the barrier to guarantee that req->err is always updated
before req->state.

Otherwise, read_reply() would not return ERR_PTR(req->err) but
req->body, when process_writes()->xb_write() is failed.

Dongli Zhang 1b6a51e86c xenbus: req->body should be updated before req->state
The req->body should be updated before req->state is updated and the
order should be guaranteed by a barrier.

Otherwise, read_reply() might return req->body = NULL.

Below is sample callstack when the issue is reproduced on purpose by
reordering the updates of req->body and req->state and adding delay in
code between updates of req->state and req->body.

SeongJae Park 060eabe8fb xenbus/backend: Protect xenbus callback with lock
A driver's 'reclaim_memory' callback can race with 'probe' or 'remove'
because it will be called whenever memory pressure is detected.  To
avoid such race, this commit embeds a spinlock in each 'xenbus_device'
and make 'xenbus' to hold the lock while the corresponded callbacks are
running.

SeongJae Park 8a105678fb xenbus/backend: Add memory pressure handler callback
Granting pages consumes backend system memory.  In systems configured
with insufficient spare memory for those pages, it can cause a memory
pressure situation.  However, finding the optimal amount of the spare
memory is challenging for large systems having dynamic resource
utilization patterns.  Also, such a static configuration might lack
flexibility.

To mitigate such problems, this commit adds a memory reclaim callback to
'xenbus_driver'.  If a memory pressure is detected, 'xenbus' requests
every backend driver to volunarily release its memory.

Note that it would be able to improve the callback facility for more
sophisticated handlings of general pressures.  For example, it would be
possible to monitor the memory consumption of each device and issue the
release requests to only devices which causing the pressure.  Also, the
callback could be extended to handle not only memory, but general
resources.  Nevertheless, this version of the implementation defers such
sophisticated goals as a future work.

Paul Durrant 672b7763cb xenbus: limit when state is forced to closed
If a driver probe() fails then leave the xenstore state alone. There is no
reason to modify it as the failure may be due to transient resource
allocation issues and hence a subsequent probe() may succeed.

If the driver supports re-binding then only force state to closed during
remove() only in the case when the toolstack may need to clean up. This can
be detected by checking whether the state in xenstore has been set to
closing prior to device removal.

NOTE: Re-bind support is indicated by new boolean in struct xenbus_driver,
      which defaults to false. Subsequent patches will add support to
      some backend drivers.

Paul Durrant c534374ecf xenbus: move xenbus_dev_shutdown() into frontend code...
...and make it static

xenbus_dev_shutdown() is seemingly intended to cause clean shutdown of PV
frontends when a guest is rebooted. Indeed the function waits for a
conpletion which is only set by a call to xenbus_frontend_closed().

This patch removes the shutdown() method from backends and moves
xenbus_dev_shutdown() from xenbus_probe.c into xenbus_probe_frontend.c,
renaming it appropriately and making it static.

NOTE: In the case where the backend is running in a driver domain, the
      toolstack should have already terminated any frontends that may be
      using it (since Xen does not support re-startable PV driver domains)
      so xenbus_dev_shutdown() should never be called.

Ross Lagerwall d10e0cc113 xenbus: Avoid deadlock during suspend due to open transactions
During a suspend/resume, the xenwatch thread waits for all outstanding
xenstore requests and transactions to complete. This does not work
correctly for transactions started by userspace because it waits for
them to complete after freezing userspace threads which means the
transactions have no way of completing, resulting in a deadlock. This is
trivial to reproduce by running this script and then suspending the VM:

    import pyxs, time
    c = pyxs.client.Client(xen_bus_path="/dev/xen/xenbus")
    c.connect()
    c.transaction()
    time.sleep(3600)

Even if this deadlock were resolved, misbehaving userspace should not
prevent a VM from being migrated. So, instead of waiting for these
transactions to complete before suspending, store the current generation
id for each transaction when it is started. The global generation id is
incremented during resume. If the caller commits the transaction and the
generation id does not match the current generation id, return EAGAIN so
that they try again. If the transaction was instead discarded, return OK
since no changes were made anyway.

This only affects users of the xenbus file interface. In-kernel users of
xenbus are assumed to be well-behaved and complete all transactions
before freezing.

Kirill Smelkov 10dce8af34 fs: stream_open - opener for stream-like files so that read and write can run simultaneously without deadlock
Commit 9c225f2655 ("vfs: atomic f_pos accesses as per POSIX") added
locking for file.f_pos access and in particular made concurrent read and
write not possible - now both those functions take f_pos lock for the
whole run, and so if e.g. a read is blocked waiting for data, write will
deadlock waiting for that read to complete.

This caused regression for stream-like files where previously read and
write could run simultaneously, but after that patch could not do so
anymore. See e.g. commit 581d21a2d0 ("xenbus: fix deadlock on writes
to /proc/xen/xenbus") which fixes such regression for particular case of
/proc/xen/xenbus.

The patch that added f_pos lock in 2014 did so to guarantee POSIX thread
safety for read/write/lseek and added the locking to file descriptors of
all regular files. In 2014 that thread-safety problem was not new as it
was already discussed earlier in 2006.

However even though 2006'th version of Linus's patch was adding f_pos
locking "only for files that are marked seekable with FMODE_LSEEK (thus
avoiding the stream-like objects like pipes and sockets)", the 2014
version - the one that actually made it into the tree as 9c225f2655 -
is doing so irregardless of whether a file is seekable or not.

See

    https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/53022DB1.4070805@gmail.com/
    https://lwn.net/Articles/180387
    https://lwn.net/Articles/180396

for historic context.

The reason that it did so is, probably, that there are many files that
are marked non-seekable, but e.g. their read implementation actually
depends on knowing current position to correctly handle the read. Some
examples:

	kernel/power/user.c		snapshot_read
	fs/debugfs/file.c		u32_array_read
	fs/fuse/control.c		fuse_conn_waiting_read + ...
	drivers/hwmon/asus_atk0110.c	atk_debugfs_ggrp_read
	arch/s390/hypfs/inode.c		hypfs_read_iter
	...

Despite that, many nonseekable_open users implement read and write with
pure stream semantics - they don't depend on passed ppos at all. And for
those cases where read could wait for something inside, it creates a
situation similar to xenbus - the write could be never made to go until
read is done, and read is waiting for some, potentially external, event,
for potentially unbounded time -> deadlock.

Besides xenbus, there are 14 such places in the kernel that I've found
with semantic patch (see below):

	drivers/xen/evtchn.c:667:8-24: ERROR: evtchn_fops: .read() can deadlock .write()

	drivers/gnss/core.c:45:1-17: ERROR: gnss_fops: .read() can deadlock .write()

In addition to the cases above another regression caused by f_pos
locking is that now FUSE filesystems that implement open with
FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, can no longer implement bidirectional
stream-like files - for the same reason as above e.g. read can deadlock
write locking on file.f_pos in the kernel.

FUSE's FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE was added in 2008 in a7c1b990f7 ("fuse:
implement nonseekable open") to support OSSPD. OSSPD implements /dev/dsp
in userspace with FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flag, with corresponding read and
write routines not depending on current position at all, and with both
read and write being potentially blocking operations:

See

    https://github.com/libfuse/osspd
    https://lwn.net/Articles/308445

    https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1406
    https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1438-L1477
    https://github.com/libfuse/osspd/blob/14a9cff0/osspd.c#L1479-L1510

Corresponding libfuse example/test also describes FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE as
"somewhat pipe-like files ..." with read handler not using offset.
However that test implements only read without write and cannot exercise
the deadlock scenario:

    https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L124-L131
    https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L146-L163
    https://github.com/libfuse/libfuse/blob/fuse-3.4.2-3-ga1bff7d/example/poll.c#L209-L216

I've actually hit the read vs write deadlock for real while implementing
my FUSE filesystem where there is /head/watch file, for which open
creates separate bidirectional socket-like stream in between filesystem
and its user with both read and write being later performed
simultaneously. And there it is semantically not easy to split the
stream into two separate read-only and write-only channels:

    https://lab.nexedi.com/kirr/wendelin.core/blob/f13aa600/wcfs/wcfs.go#L88-169

Let's fix this regression. The plan is:

1. We can't change nonseekable_open to include &~FMODE_ATOMIC_POS -
   doing so would break many in-kernel nonseekable_open users which
   actually use ppos in read/write handlers.

2. Add stream_open() to kernel to open stream-like non-seekable file
   descriptors. Read and write on such file descriptors would never use
   nor change ppos. And with that property on stream-like files read and
   write will be running without taking f_pos lock - i.e. read and write
   could be running simultaneously.

3. With semantic patch search and convert to stream_open all in-kernel
   nonseekable_open users for which read and write actually do not
   depend on ppos and where there is no other methods in file_operations
   which assume @offset access.

4. Add FOPEN_STREAM to fs/fuse/ and open in-kernel file-descriptors via
   steam_open if that bit is present in filesystem open reply.

   It was tempting to change fs/fuse/ open handler to use stream_open
   instead of nonseekable_open on just FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE flags, but
   grepping through Debian codesearch shows users of FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE,
   and in particular GVFS which actually uses offset in its read and
   write handlers

	https://codesearch.debian.net/search?q=-%3Enonseekable+%3D
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1080
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1247-1346
	https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gvfs/blob/1.40.0-6-gcbc54396/client/gvfsfusedaemon.c#L1399-1481

   so if we would do such a change it will break a real user.

5. Add stream_open and FOPEN_STREAM handling to stable kernels starting
   from v3.14+ (the kernel where 9c225f2655 first appeared).

   This will allow to patch OSSPD and other FUSE filesystems that
   provide stream-like files to return FOPEN_STREAM | FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE
   in their open handler and this way avoid the deadlock on all kernel
   versions. This should work because fs/fuse/ ignores unknown open
   flags returned from a filesystem and so passing FOPEN_STREAM to a
   kernel that is not aware of this flag cannot hurt. In turn the kernel
   that is not aware of FOPEN_STREAM will be < v3.14 where just
   FOPEN_NONSEEKABLE is sufficient to implement streams without read vs
   write deadlock.

This patch adds stream_open, converts /proc/xen/xenbus to it and adds
semantic patch to automatically locate in-kernel places that are either
required to be converted due to read vs write deadlock, or that are just
safe to be converted because read and write do not use ppos and there
are no other funky methods in file_operations.

Regarding semantic patch I've verified each generated change manually -
that it is correct to convert - and each other nonseekable_open instance
left - that it is either not correct to convert there, or that it is not
converted due to current stream_open.cocci limitations.

The script also does not convert files that should be valid to convert,
but that currently have .llseek = noop_llseek or generic_file_llseek for
unknown reason despite file being opened with nonseekable_open (e.g.
drivers/input/mousedev.c)

Juergen Gross 7a048cec59 xen: drop writing error messages to xenstore
xenbus_va_dev_error() will try to write error messages to Xenstore
under the error/<dev-name>/error node (with <dev-name> something like
"device/vbd/51872"). This will fail normally and another message
about this failure is added to dmesg.

I believe this is a remnant from very ancient times, as it was added
in the first pvops rush of commits in 2007.

So remove the additional message when writing to Xenstore failed as
a minimum step.

Simon Gaiser 2a22ee6c3a xen: xenbus_dev_frontend: Fix XS_TRANSACTION_END handling
Commit fd8aa9095a ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple
concurrent xenstore accesses") made a subtle change to the semantic of
xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() and xenbus_transaction_end().

Before on an error response to XS_TRANSACTION_END
xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() would not decrement the active
transaction counter. But xenbus_transaction_end() has always counted the
transaction as finished regardless of the response.

The new behavior is that xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() and
xenbus_transaction_end() will always count the transaction as finished
regardless the response code (handled in xs_request_exit()).

But xenbus_dev_frontend tries to end a transaction on closing of the
device if the XS_TRANSACTION_END failed before. Trying to close the
transaction twice corrupts the reference count. So fix this by also
considering a transaction closed if we have sent XS_TRANSACTION_END once
regardless of the return code.

Joao Martins 29fee6eed2 xenbus: track caller request id
Commit fd8aa9095a ("xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple concurrent
xenstore accesses") optimized xenbus concurrent accesses but in doing so
broke UABI of /dev/xen/xenbus. Through /dev/xen/xenbus applications are in
charge of xenbus message exchange with the correct header and body. Now,
after the mentioned commit the replies received by application will no
longer have the header req_id echoed back as it was on request (see
specification below for reference), because that particular field is being
overwritten by kernel.

struct xsd_sockmsg
{
  uint32_t type;  /* XS_??? */
  uint32_t req_id;/* Request identifier, echoed in daemon's response.  */
  uint32_t tx_id; /* Transaction id (0 if not related to a transaction). */
  uint32_t len;   /* Length of data following this. */

  /* Generally followed by nul-terminated string(s). */
};

Before there was only one request at a time so req_id could simply be
forwarded back and forth. To allow simultaneous requests we need a
different req_id for each message thus kernel keeps a monotonic increasing
counter for this field and is written on every request irrespective of
userspace value.

Forwarding again the req_id on userspace requests is not a solution because
we would open the possibility of userspace-generated req_id colliding with
kernel ones. So this patch instead takes another route which is to
artificially keep user req_id while keeping the xenbus logic as is. We do
that by saving the original req_id before xs_send(), use the private kernel
counter as req_id and then once reply comes and was validated, we restore
back the original req_id.

Linus Torvalds a9a08845e9 vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement
This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
variables as described by Al, done by this script:

    for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
        L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
        for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
    done

with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.

NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.

The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
should be all done.

Greg Kroah-Hartman b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Juergen Gross 529871bb3c xen: avoid deadlock in xenbus
When starting the xenwatch thread a theoretical deadlock situation is
possible:

xs_init() contains:

    task = kthread_run(xenwatch_thread, NULL, "xenwatch");
    if (IS_ERR(task))
        return PTR_ERR(task);
    xenwatch_pid = task->pid;

And xenwatch_thread() does:

    mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
    ...
    event->handle->callback();
    ...
    mutex_unlock(&xenwatch_mutex);

The callback could call unregister_xenbus_watch() which does:

    ...
    if (current->pid != xenwatch_pid)
        mutex_lock(&xenwatch_mutex);
    ...

In case a watch is firing before xenwatch_pid could be set and the
callback of that watch unregisters a watch, then a self-deadlock would
occur.

Avoid this by setting xenwatch_pid in xenwatch_thread().

Jan Beulich ac4cde398a xenbus: remove transaction holder from list before freeing
After allocation the item is being placed on the list right away.
Consequently it needs to be taken off the list before freeing in the
case xenbus_dev_request_and_reply() failed, as in that case the
callback (xenbus_dev_queue_reply()) is not being called (and if it
was called, it should do both).

Juergen Gross fd8aa9095a xen: optimize xenbus driver for multiple concurrent xenstore accesses
Handling of multiple concurrent Xenstore accesses through xenbus driver
either from the kernel or user land is rather lame today: xenbus is
capable to have one access active only at one point of time.

Rewrite xenbus to handle multiple requests concurrently by making use
of the request id of the Xenstore protocol. This requires to:

- Instead of blocking inside xb_read() when trying to read data from
  the xenstore ring buffer do so only in the main loop of
  xenbus_thread().

- Instead of doing writes to the xenstore ring buffer in the context of
  the caller just queue the request and do the write in the dedicated
  xenbus thread.

- Instead of just forwarding the request id specified by the caller of
  xenbus to xenstore use a xenbus internal unique request id. This will
  allow multiple outstanding requests.

- Modify the locking scheme in order to allow multiple requests being
  active in parallel.

- Instead of waiting for the reply of a user's xenstore request after
  writing the request to the xenstore ring buffer return directly to
  the caller and do the waiting in the read path.

Additionally signal handling was optimized by avoiding waking up the
xenbus thread or sending an event to Xenstore in case the addressed
entity is known to be running already.

As a result communication with Xenstore is sped up by a factor of up
to 5: depending on the request type (read or write) and the amount of
data transferred the gain was at least 20% (small reads) and went up to
a factor of 5 for large writes.

In the end some more rough edges of xenbus have been smoothed:

- Handling of memory shortage when reading from xenstore ring buffer in
  the xenbus driver was not optimal: it was busy looping and issuing a
  warning in each loop.

- In case of xenstore not running in dom0 but in a stubdom we end up
  with two xenbus threads running as the initialization of xenbus in
  dom0 expecting a local xenstored will be redone later when connecting
  to the xenstore domain. Up to now this was no problem as locking
  would prevent the two xenbus threads interfering with each other, but
  this was just a waste of kernel resources.

- An out of memory situation while writing to or reading from the
  xenstore ring buffer no longer will lead to a possible loss of
  synchronization with xenstore.

- The user read and write part are now interruptible by signals.

Juergen Gross 5584ea250a xen: modify xenstore watch event interface
Today a Xenstore watch event is delivered via a callback function
declared as:

void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
                 const char **vec, unsigned int len);

As all watch events only ever come with two parameters (path and token)
changing the prototype to:

void (*callback)(struct xenbus_watch *,
                 const char *path, const char *token);

is the natural thing to do.

Apply this change and adapt all users.

Juergen Gross 332f791dc9 xen: clean up xenbus internal headers
The xenbus driver has an awful mixture of internally and globally
visible headers: some of the internally used only stuff is defined in
the global header include/xen/xenbus.h while some stuff defined in
internal headers is used by other drivers, too.

Clean this up by moving the externally used symbols to
include/xen/xenbus.h and the symbols used internally only to a new
header drivers/xen/xenbus/xenbus.h replacing xenbus_comms.h and
xenbus_probe.h

When the xenbus driver does some special handling for a Xenstore
command any error condition related to the command should be returned
via an error response instead of letting the related write operation
fail. Otherwise the user land handler might take wrong decisions
assuming the connection to Xenstore is broken.

Juergen Gross 639b08810d xen: xenbus driver must not accept invalid transaction ids
When accessing Xenstore in a transaction the user is specifying a
transaction id which he normally obtained from Xenstore when starting
the transaction. Xenstore is validating a transaction id against all
known transaction ids of the connection the request came in. As all
requests of a domain not being the one where Xenstore lives share
one connection, validation of transaction ids of different users of
Xenstore in that domain should be done by the kernel of that domain
being the multiplexer between the Xenstore users in that domain and
Xenstore.

In order to prohibit one Xenstore user "hijacking" a transaction from
another user the xenbus driver has to verify a given transaction id
against all known transaction ids of the user before forwarding it to
Xenstore.
