  52 * Feature and Parameter Negotiation
  53 * =================================
  54 * The two halves of a Xen block driver utilize nodes within the XenStore to
  55 * communicate capabilities and to negotiate operating parameters.  This
  56 * section enumerates these nodes which reside in the respective front and
  57 * backend portions of the XenStore, following the XenBus convention.
  58 *
  59 * All data in the XenStore is stored as strings.  Nodes specifying numeric
  60 * values are encoded in decimal.  Integer value ranges listed below are
  61 * expressed as fixed sized integer types capable of storing the conversion
  62 * of a properly formated node string, without loss of information.
  63 *
  64 * Any specified default value is in effect if the corresponding XenBus node
  65 * is not present in the XenStore.
  66 *
  67 * XenStore nodes in sections marked "PRIVATE" are solely for use by the
  68 * driver side whose XenBus tree contains them.
  69 *
  70 * XenStore nodes marked "DEPRECATED" in their notes section should only be
  71 * used to provide interoperability with legacy implementations.
  72 *
  73 * See the XenBus state transition diagram below for details on when XenBus
  74 * nodes must be published and when they can be queried.

  79 *
  80 *------------------ Backend Device Identification (PRIVATE) ------------------
  81 *
  82 * mode
  83 *      Values:         "r" (read only), "w" (writable)
  84 *
  85 *      The read or write access permissions to the backing store to be
  86 *      granted to the frontend.
  87 *
  88 * params
  89 *      Values:         string
  90 *
  91 *      A free formatted string providing sufficient information for the
  92 *      hotplug script to attach the device and provide a suitable
  93 *      handler (ie: a block device) for blkback to use.
  94 *
  95 * physical-device
  96 *      Values:         "MAJOR:MINOR"
  97 *      Notes: 11
  98 *
  99 *      MAJOR and MINOR are the major number and minor number of the
 100 *      backing device respectively.
 101 *
 102 * physical-device-path
 103 *      Values:         path string
 104 *
 105 *      A string that contains the absolute path to the disk image. On
 106 *      NetBSD and Linux this is always a block device, while on FreeBSD
 107 *      it can be either a block device or a regular file.
 108 *
 109 * type
 110 *      Values:         "file", "phy", "tap"
 111 *
 112 *      The type of the backing device/object.
 113 *
 114 *
 115 * direct-io-safe
 116 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 117 *      Default Value:  0
 118 *
 119 *      The underlying storage is not affected by the direct IO memory
 120 *      lifetime bug.  See:
 121 *        http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-12/msg01154.html
 122 *
 123 *      Therefore this option gives the backend permission to use
 124 *      O_DIRECT, notwithstanding that bug.
 125 *
 126 *      That is, if this option is enabled, use of O_DIRECT is safe,
 127 *      in circumstances where we would normally have avoided it as a
 128 *      workaround for that bug.  This option is not relevant for all
 129 *      backends, and even not necessarily supported for those for
 130 *      which it is relevant.  A backend which knows that it is not
 131 *      affected by the bug can ignore this option.
 132 *
 133 *      This option doesn't require a backend to use O_DIRECT, so it
 134 *      should not be used to try to control the caching behaviour.
 135 *
 136 *--------------------------------- Features ---------------------------------
 137 *
 138 * feature-barrier
 139 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 140 *      Default Value:  0
 141 *
 142 *      A value of "1" indicates that the backend can process requests
 143 *      containing the BLKIF_OP_WRITE_BARRIER request opcode.  Requests
 144 *      of this type may still be returned at any time with the
 145 *      BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP result code.
 146 *
 147 * feature-flush-cache
 148 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 149 *      Default Value:  0
 150 *
 151 *      A value of "1" indicates that the backend can process requests
 152 *      containing the BLKIF_OP_FLUSH_DISKCACHE request opcode.  Requests
 153 *      of this type may still be returned at any time with the
 154 *      BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP result code.
 155 *
 156 * feature-discard
 157 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 158 *      Default Value:  0
 159 *
 160 *      A value of "1" indicates that the backend can process requests
 161 *      containing the BLKIF_OP_DISCARD request opcode.  Requests
 162 *      of this type may still be returned at any time with the
 163 *      BLKIF_RSP_EOPNOTSUPP result code.
 164 *
 165 * feature-persistent
 166 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 167 *      Default Value:  0
 168 *      Notes: 7
 169 *
 170 *      A value of "1" indicates that the backend can keep the grants used
 171 *      by the frontend driver mapped, so the same set of grants should be
 172 *      used in all transactions. The maximum number of grants the backend
 173 *      can map persistently depends on the implementation, but ideally it
 174 *      should be RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST. Using this
 175 *      feature the backend doesn't need to unmap each grant, preventing
 176 *      costly TLB flushes. The backend driver should only map grants
 177 *      persistently if the frontend supports it. If a backend driver chooses
 178 *      to use the persistent protocol when the frontend doesn't support it,
 179 *      it will probably hit the maximum number of persistently mapped grants
 180 *      (due to the fact that the frontend won't be reusing the same grants),
 181 *      and fall back to non-persistent mode. Backend implementations may
 182 *      shrink or expand the number of persistently mapped grants without
 183 *      notifying the frontend depending on memory constraints (this might
 184 *      cause a performance degradation).
 185 *
 186 *      If a backend driver wants to limit the maximum number of persistently
 187 *      mapped grants to a value less than RING_SIZE *
 188 *      BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST a LRU strategy should be used to
 189 *      discard the grants that are less commonly used. Using a LRU in the
 190 *      backend driver paired with a LIFO queue in the frontend will
 191 *      allow us to have better performance in this scenario.
 192 *
 193 *----------------------- Request Transport Parameters ------------------------
 194 *
 195 * max-ring-page-order
 196 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 197 *      Default Value:  0
 198 *      Notes:          1, 3
 199 *
 200 *      The maximum supported size of the request ring buffer in units of
 201 *      lb(machine pages). (e.g. 0 == 1 page,  1 = 2 pages, 2 == 4 pages,
 202 *      etc.).
 203 *
 204 * max-ring-pages
 205 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 206 *      Default Value:  1
 207 *      Notes:          DEPRECATED, 2, 3
 208 *
 209 *      The maximum supported size of the request ring buffer in units of
 210 *      machine pages.  The value must be a power of 2.
 211 *
 212 *------------------------- Backend Device Properties -------------------------
 213 *
 214 * discard-enable
 215 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 216 *      Default Value:  1
 217 *
 218 *      This optional property, set by the toolstack, instructs the backend
 219 *      to offer (or not to offer) discard to the frontend. If the property
 220 *      is missing the backend should offer discard if the backing storage
 221 *      actually supports it.
 222 *
 223 * discard-alignment
 224 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 225 *      Default Value:  0
 226 *      Notes:          4, 5
 227 *
 228 *      The offset, in bytes from the beginning of the virtual block device,
 229 *      to the first, addressable, discard extent on the underlying device.
 230 *
 231 * discard-granularity
 232 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 233 *      Default Value:  <"sector-size">
 234 *      Notes:          4
 235 *
 236 *      The size, in bytes, of the individually addressable discard extents
 237 *      of the underlying device.
 238 *
 239 * discard-secure
 240 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 241 *      Default Value:  0
 242 *      Notes:          10
 243 *
 244 *      A value of "1" indicates that the backend can process BLKIF_OP_DISCARD
 245 *      requests with the BLKIF_DISCARD_SECURE flag set.
 246 *
 247 * info
 248 *      Values:         <uint32_t> (bitmap)
 249 *
 250 *      A collection of bit flags describing attributes of the backing
 251 *      device.  The VDISK_* macros define the meaning of each bit
 252 *      location.
 253 *
 254 * sector-size
 255 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 256 *
 257 *      The logical block size, in bytes, of the underlying storage. This
 258 *      must be a power of two with a minimum value of 512.
 259 *
 260 *      NOTE: Because of implementation bugs in some frontends this must be
 261 *            set to 512, unless the frontend advertizes a non-zero value
 262 *            in its "feature-large-sector-size" xenbus node. (See below).
 263 *
 264 * physical-sector-size
 265 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 266 *      Default Value:  <"sector-size">
 267 *
 268 *      The physical block size, in bytes, of the backend storage. This
 269 *      must be an integer multiple of "sector-size".
 270 *
 271 * sectors
 272 *      Values:         <uint64_t>
 273 *
 274 *      The size of the backend device, expressed in units of "sector-size".
 275 *      The product of "sector-size" and "sectors" must also be an integer
 276 *      multiple of "physical-sector-size", if that node is present.

 292 *      Notes:          6
 293 *
 294 *      The Xen grant reference granting permission for the backend to map
 295 *      the sole page in a single page sized ring buffer.
 296 *
 297 * ring-ref%u
 298 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 299 *      Notes:          6
 300 *
 301 *      For a frontend providing a multi-page ring, a "number of ring pages"
 302 *      sized list of nodes, each containing a Xen grant reference granting
 303 *      permission for the backend to map the page of the ring located
 304 *      at page index "%u".  Page indexes are zero based.
 305 *
 306 * protocol
 307 *      Values:         string (XEN_IO_PROTO_ABI_*)
 308 *      Default Value:  XEN_IO_PROTO_ABI_NATIVE

 317 *      Notes:          1, 3
 318 *
 319 *      The size of the frontend allocated request ring buffer in units
 320 *      of lb(machine pages). (e.g. 0 == 1 page, 1 = 2 pages, 2 == 4 pages,

 322 *
 323 * num-ring-pages
 324 *      Values:         <uint32_t>

 326 *      Maximum Value:  MAX(max-ring-pages,(0x1 << max-ring-page-order))
 327 *      Notes:          DEPRECATED, 2, 3
 328 *
 329 *      The size of the frontend allocated request ring buffer in units of
 330 *      machine pages.  The value must be a power of 2.
 331 *
 332 *--------------------------------- Features ---------------------------------
 333 *
 334 * feature-persistent
 335 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 336 *      Default Value:  0
 337 *      Notes: 7, 8, 9
 338 *
 339 *      A value of "1" indicates that the frontend will reuse the same grants
 340 *      for all transactions, allowing the backend to map them with write
 341 *      access (even when it should be read-only). If the frontend hits the
 342 *      maximum number of allowed persistently mapped grants, it can fallback
 343 *      to non persistent mode. This will cause a performance degradation,
 344 *      since the backend driver will still try to map those grants
 345 *      persistently. Since the persistent grants protocol is compatible with
 346 *      the previous protocol, a frontend driver can choose to work in
 347 *      persistent mode even when the backend doesn't support it.
 348 *
 349 *      It is recommended that the frontend driver stores the persistently
 350 *      mapped grants in a LIFO queue, so a subset of all persistently mapped
 351 *      grants gets used commonly. This is done in case the backend driver
 352 *      decides to limit the maximum number of persistently mapped grants
 353 *      to a value less than RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST.
 354 *
 355 * feature-large-sector-size
 356 *      Values:         0/1 (boolean)
 357 *      Default Value:  0
 358 *
 359 *      A value of "1" indicates that the frontend will correctly supply and
 360 *      interpret all sector-based quantities in terms of the "sector-size"
 361 *      value supplied in the backend info, whatever that may be set to.
 362 *      If this node is not present or its value is "0" then it is assumed
 363 *      that the frontend requires that the logical block size is 512 as it
 364 *      is hardcoded (which is the case in some frontend implementations).
 365 *
 366 *------------------------- Virtual Device Properties -------------------------
 367 *
 368 * device-type
 369 *      Values:         "disk", "cdrom", "floppy", etc.
 370 *
 371 * virtual-device
 372 *      Values:         <uint32_t>
 373 *
 374 *      A value indicating the physical device to virtualize within the
 375 *      frontend's domain.  (e.g. "The first ATA disk", "The third SCSI
 376 *      disk", etc.)
 377 *
 378 *      See docs/misc/vbd-interface.txt for details on the format of this
 379 *      value.
 380 *
 381 * Notes
 382 * -----
 383 * (1) Multi-page ring buffer scheme first developed in the Citrix XenServer
 384 *     PV drivers.
 385 * (2) Multi-page ring buffer scheme first used in some RedHat distributions
 386 *     including a distribution deployed on certain nodes of the Amazon
 387 *     EC2 cluster.
 388 * (3) Support for multi-page ring buffers was implemented independently,
 389 *     in slightly different forms, by both Citrix and RedHat/Amazon.
 390 *     For full interoperability, block front and backends should publish
 391 *     identical ring parameters, adjusted for unit differences, to the
 392 *     XenStore nodes used in both schemes.
 393 * (4) Devices that support discard functionality may internally allocate space
 394 *     (discardable extents) in units that are larger than the exported logical
 395 *     block size. If the backing device has such discardable extents the
 396 *     backend should provide both discard-granularity and discard-alignment.
 397 *     Providing just one of the two may be considered an error by the frontend.
 398 *     Backends supporting discard should include discard-granularity and
 399 *     discard-alignment even if it supports discarding individual sectors.
 400 *     Frontends should assume discard-alignment == 0 and discard-granularity
 401 *     == sector size if these keys are missing.
 402 * (5) The discard-alignment parameter allows a physical device to be
 403 *     partitioned into virtual devices that do not necessarily begin or
 404 *     end on a discardable extent boundary.
 405 * (6) When there is only a single page allocated to the request ring,
 406 *     'ring-ref' is used to communicate the grant reference for this
 407 *     page to the backend.  When using a multi-page ring, the 'ring-ref'
 408 *     node is not created.  Instead 'ring-ref0' - 'ring-refN' are used.
 409 * (7) When using persistent grants data has to be copied from/to the page
 410 *     where the grant is currently mapped. The overhead of doing this copy
 411 *     however doesn't suppress the speed improvement of not having to unmap
 412 *     the grants.
 413 * (8) The frontend driver has to allow the backend driver to map all grants
 414 *     with write access, even when they should be mapped read-only, since
 415 *     further requests may reuse these grants and require write permissions.
 416 * (9) Linux implementation doesn't have a limit on the maximum number of
 417 *     grants that can be persistently mapped in the frontend driver, but
 418 *     due to the frontent driver implementation it should never be bigger
 419 *     than RING_SIZE * BLKIF_MAX_SEGMENTS_PER_REQUEST.
 420 *(10) The discard-secure property may be present and will be set to 1 if the
 421 *     backing device supports secure discard.
 422 *(11) Only used by Linux and NetBSD.
 423 */
 424
 425/*
 426 * Multiple hardware queues/rings:
 427 * If supported, the backend will write the key "multi-queue-max-queues" to
 428 * the directory for that vbd, and set its value to the maximum supported
 429 * number of queues.
 430 * Frontends that are aware of this feature and wish to use it can write the
 431 * key "multi-queue-num-queues" with the number they wish to use, which must be
 432 * greater than zero, and no more than the value reported by the backend in
 433 * "multi-queue-max-queues".
 434 *
 435 * For frontends requesting just one queue, the usual event-channel and
 436 * ring-ref keys are written as before, simplifying the backend processing
 437 * to avoid distinguishing between a frontend that doesn't understand the
 438 * multi-queue feature, and one that does, but requested only one queue.
 439 *
 440 * Frontends requesting two or more queues must not write the toplevel
 441 * event-channel and ring-ref keys, instead writing those keys under sub-keys
 442 * having the name "queue-N" where N is the integer ID of the queue/ring for
 443 * which those keys belong. Queues are indexed from zero.
 444 * For example, a frontend with two queues must write the following set of
 445 * queue-related keys:
 446 *
 447 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/multi-queue-num-queues = "2"
 448 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0 = ""
 449 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0/ring-ref = "<ring-ref#0>"
 450 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0/event-channel = "<evtchn#0>"
 451 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1 = ""
 452 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1/ring-ref = "<ring-ref#1>"
 453 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1/event-channel = "<evtchn#1>"
 454 *
 455 * It is also possible to use multiple queues/rings together with
 456 * feature multi-page ring buffer.
 457 * For example, a frontend requests two queues/rings and the size of each ring
 458 * buffer is two pages must write the following set of related keys:
 459 *
 460 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/multi-queue-num-queues = "2"
 461 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/ring-page-order = "1"
 462 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0 = ""
 463 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0/ring-ref0 = "<ring-ref#0>"
 464 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0/ring-ref1 = "<ring-ref#1>"
 465 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-0/event-channel = "<evtchn#0>"
 466 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1 = ""
 467 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1/ring-ref0 = "<ring-ref#2>"
 468 * /local/domain/1/device/vbd/0/queue-1/ring-ref1 = "<ring-ref#3>"

 527 *       o A frontend may transition to XenbusStateInitialised without
 528 *         waiting for the backend to enter XenbusStateInitWait.  In this
 529 *         case, default transport parameters are in effect and any
 530 *         transport parameters published by the frontend must contain
 531 *         their default values.
 532 *
 533 *       o A backend may transition to XenbusStateInitialised, bypassing
 534 *         XenbusStateInitWait, without waiting for the frontend to first
 535 *         enter the XenbusStateInitialised state.  In this case, default
 536 *         transport parameters are in effect and any transport parameters
 537 *         published by the backend must contain their default values.
 538 *
 539 *       Drivers that support optional features and/or transport parameter
 540 *       negotiation must tolerate these additional state transition paths.
 541 *       In general this means performing the work of any skipped state
 542 *       transition, if it has not already been performed, in addition to the
 543 *       work associated with entry into the current state.
