5config XEN_BALLOON
6	bool "Xen memory balloon driver"
7	default y
8	help
9	  The balloon driver allows the Xen domain to request more memory from
10	  the system to expand the domain's memory allocation, or alternatively
11	  return unneeded memory to the system.
12
13config XEN_BALLOON_MEMORY_HOTPLUG
14	bool "Memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver"
15	depends on XEN_BALLOON && MEMORY_HOTPLUG
16	default y
17	help
18	  Memory hotplug support for Xen balloon driver allows expanding memory
19	  available for the system above limit declared at system startup.
20	  It is very useful on critical systems which require long
21	  run without rebooting.
22
23	  It's also very useful for non PV domains to obtain unpopulated physical
24	  memory ranges to use in order to map foreign memory or grants.
25
26	  Memory could be hotplugged in following steps:
27
28	    1) target domain: ensure that memory auto online policy is in
29	       effect by checking /sys/devices/system/memory/auto_online_blocks
30	       file (should be 'online').
31
32	    2) control domain: xl mem-max <target-domain> <maxmem>
33	       where <maxmem> is >= requested memory size,
34
35	    3) control domain: xl mem-set <target-domain> <memory>
36	       where <memory> is requested memory size; alternatively memory
37	       could be added by writing proper value to
38	       /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/target or
39	       /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/target_kb on the
40	       target domain.
41
42	  Alternatively, if memory auto onlining was not requested at step 1
43	  the newly added memory can be manually onlined in the target domain
44	  by doing the following:
45
46		for i in /sys/devices/system/memory/memory*/state; do \
47		  [ "`cat "$i"`" = offline ] && echo online > "$i"; done
48
49	  or by adding the following line to udev rules:
50
51	  SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/bin/sh -c '[ -f /sys$devpath/state ] && echo online > /sys$devpath/state'"

57	depends on MEMORY_HOTPLUG
58	help
59	  Maximum amount of memory (in GiB) that a PV guest can be
60	  expanded to when using memory hotplug.
61
62	  A PV guest can have more memory than this limit if is
63	  started with a larger maximum.
64
65	  This value is used to allocate enough space in internal
66	  tables needed for physical memory administration.
67
68config XEN_SCRUB_PAGES_DEFAULT
69	bool "Scrub pages before returning them to system by default"
70	depends on XEN_BALLOON
71	default y
72	help
73	  Scrub pages before returning them to the system for reuse by
74	  other domains.  This makes sure that any confidential data
75	  is not accidentally visible to other domains.  It is more
76	  secure, but slightly less efficient. This can be controlled with
77	  xen_scrub_pages=0 parameter and
78	  /sys/devices/system/xen_memory/xen_memory0/scrub_pages.
79	  This option only sets the default value.
80
81	  If in doubt, say yes.

99config XENFS
100	tristate "Xen filesystem"

102	default y
103	help
104	  The xen filesystem provides a way for domains to share
105	  information with each other and with the hypervisor.
106	  For example, by reading and writing the "xenbus" file, guests
107	  may pass arbitrary information to the initial domain.
108	  If in doubt, say yes.
109
110config XEN_COMPAT_XENFS
111	bool "Create compatibility mount point /proc/xen"
112	depends on XENFS
113	default y
114	help
115	  The old xenstore userspace tools expect to find "xenbus"
116	  under /proc/xen, but "xenbus" is now found at the root of the
117	  xenfs filesystem.  Selecting this causes the kernel to create
118	  the compatibility mount point /proc/xen if it is running on
119	  a xen platform.
120	  If in doubt, say yes.

148	help
149	  Allows userspace processes and kernel modules to use Xen backed
150	  dma-buf implementation. With this extension grant references to
151	  the pages of an imported dma-buf can be exported for other domain
152	  use and grant references coming from a foreign domain can be

164config XEN_GRANT_DMA_ALLOC
165	bool "Allow allocating DMA capable buffers with grant reference module"
166	depends on XEN && HAS_DMA
167	help
168	  Extends grant table module API to allow allocating DMA capable
169	  buffers and mapping foreign grant references on top of it.
170	  The resulting buffer is similar to one allocated by the balloon
171	  driver in that proper memory reservation is made by
172	  ({increase|decrease}_reservation and VA mappings are updated if
173	  needed).
174	  This is useful for sharing foreign buffers with HW drivers which
175	  cannot work with scattered buffers provided by the balloon driver,
176	  but require DMAable memory instead.
