    Subject[PATCH V4 0/4] xen: privcmd: Add ioeventfd and fix irqfd support
    Date
    Hello,

    Now that irqfd support (backend to guest interrupt) is already merged, this
    series solves the other part of the problem, i.e. ioeventfd (guest to
    backend interrupt).

    More details inside the commits.

    Arnd reported few issues with the ioctl macro usage and argument's layout, fixed
    them for irqfd too, which was added recently.

    V3->V4:
    - Use __u64 for indirect pointers in an ioctl command's arguments.
    - Use u64_to_user_ptr() in kernel driver to access the same.
    - Use _IOW() macro instead of the internal one: _IOC().

    V2->V3:
    - Remove explicit barriers and depend on spin lock instead to take care of it.
    - Move check for empty ioeventfds list to privcmd_ioeventfd_deassign(), which
    could earlier call ioreq_free() even when the list wasn't empty and so we
    returned without printing a warning in v1 earlier. V2 implemented it
    incorrectly.

    V1->V2:
    - Increment irq_info refcnt only for valid info.
    - Use u64 type for addr.
    - Add comments for use of barriers.
    - Use spin lock instead of mutex as we need to use them in irq handler.
    - Add a warning when kioreq is getting freed and ioeventfds list isn't empty.
    - Use struct_size().
    - Validate number of vcpus as well.
