Subject: [PATCH v7 00/11] KVM: xen: update shared_info and vcpu_info handling

The following text from the original cover letter still serves as an
introduction to the series:

"Currently we treat the shared_info page as guest memory and the VMM
informs KVM of its location using a GFN. However it is not guest memory as
such; it's an overlay page. So we pointlessly invalidate and re-cache a
mapping to the *same page* of memory every time the guest requests that
shared_info be mapped into its address space. Let's avoid doing that by
modifying the pfncache code to allow activation using a fixed userspace HVA
as well as a GPA."

This version of the series is functionally the same as version 6. I have
simply added David Woodhouse's R-b to patch 11 to indicate that he has
now fully reviewed the series.

Paul Durrant (11):
  KVM: pfncache: add a map helper function
  KVM: pfncache: add a mark-dirty helper
  KVM: pfncache: add a helper to get the gpa
  KVM: pfncache: base offset check on khva rather than gpa
  KVM: pfncache: allow a cache to be activated with a fixed (userspace)
    HVA
  KVM: xen: allow shared_info to be mapped by fixed HVA
  KVM: xen: allow vcpu_info to be mapped by fixed HVA
  KVM: selftests / xen: map shared_info using HVA rather than GFN
  KVM: selftests / xen: re-map vcpu_info using HVA rather than GPA
  KVM: xen: advertize the KVM_XEN_HVM_CONFIG_SHARED_INFO_HVA capability
  KVM: xen: allow vcpu_info content to be 'safely' copied
