33 * Guest Scheduler Operations
35 * The SCHEDOP interface provides mechanisms for a guest to interact
36 * with the scheduler, including yield, blocking and shutting itself
37 * down.
41 * The prototype for this hypercall is:
42 * long HYPERVISOR_sched_op(enum sched_op cmd, void *arg, ...)
44 * @cmd == SCHEDOP_??? (scheduler operation).
45 * @arg == Operation-specific extra argument(s), as described below.
46 * ... == Additional Operation-specific extra arguments, described below.
48 * Versions of Xen prior to 3.0.2 provided only the following legacy version
49 * of this hypercall, supporting only the commands yield, block and shutdown:
50 * long sched_op(int cmd, unsigned long arg)
51 * @cmd == SCHEDOP_??? (scheduler operation).
52 * @arg == 0 (SCHEDOP_yield and SCHEDOP_block)
53 * == SHUTDOWN_* code (SCHEDOP_shutdown)
55 * This legacy version is available to new guests as:
56 * long HYPERVISOR_sched_op_compat(enum sched_op cmd, unsigned long arg)
60 * Voluntarily yield the CPU.
61 * @arg == NULL.
63 #define SCHEDOP_yield 0
66 * Block execution of this VCPU until an event is received for processing.
67 * If called with event upcalls masked, this operation will atomically
68 * reenable event delivery and check for pending events before blocking the
69 * VCPU. This avoids a "wakeup waiting" race.
70 * @arg == NULL.
72 #define SCHEDOP_block 1
75 * Halt execution of this domain (all VCPUs) and notify the system controller.
76 * @arg == pointer to sched_shutdown structure.
78 * If the sched_shutdown_t reason is SHUTDOWN_suspend then
79 * x86 PV guests must also set RDX (EDX for 32-bit guests) to the MFN
80 * of the guest's start info page. RDX/EDX is the third hypercall
81 * argument.
83 * In addition, which reason is SHUTDOWN_suspend this hypercall
84 * returns 1 if suspend was cancelled or the domain was merely
85 * checkpointed, and 0 if it is resuming in a new domain.
87 #define SCHEDOP_shutdown 2
90 * Poll a set of event-channel ports. Return when one or more are pending. An
91 * optional timeout may be specified.
92 * @arg == pointer to sched_poll structure.
94 #define SCHEDOP_poll 3
97 * Declare a shutdown for another domain. The main use of this function is
98 * in interpreting shutdown requests and reasons for fully-virtualized
99 * domains. A para-virtualized domain may use SCHEDOP_shutdown directly.
100 * @arg == pointer to sched_remote_shutdown structure.
102 #define SCHEDOP_remote_shutdown 4
105 * Latch a shutdown code, so that when the domain later shuts down it
106 * reports this code to the control tools.
107 * @arg == sched_shutdown, as for SCHEDOP_shutdown.
109 #define SCHEDOP_shutdown_code 5
112 * Setup, poke and destroy a domain watchdog timer.
113 * @arg == pointer to sched_watchdog structure.
114 * With id == 0, setup a domain watchdog timer to cause domain shutdown
115 * after timeout, returns watchdog id.
116 * With id != 0 and timeout == 0, destroy domain watchdog timer.
117 * With id != 0 and timeout != 0, poke watchdog timer and set new timeout.
119 #define SCHEDOP_watchdog 6
122 * Override the current vcpu affinity by pinning it to one physical cpu or
123 * undo this override restoring the previous affinity.
124 * @arg == pointer to sched_pin_override structure.
126 * A negative pcpu value will undo a previous pin override and restore the
127 * previous cpu affinity.
128 * This call is allowed for the hardware domain only and requires the cpu
129 * to be part of the domain's cpupool.

175 * reset internal Xen state for the domain returning it to the point where it
176 * was created but leaving the domain's memory contents and vCPU contexts
177 * intact. This will allow the domain to start over and set up all Xen specific
178 * interfaces again.
