As an FYI, after posting I realized I was not on the tip of staging, I have a v5 ready, which is at the tip of staging and corrects a small type issue with initrdidx in start_xen() and is 100% on CI. I'm holding off on posting back-to-back revisions of a large series, which would only results in a few code gyrations with no logical impact that would not result in different review than would have occurred on v4.

The Boot Modules for Hyperlaunch series is an effort to split out preliminary changes necessary for the introduction of the Hyperlaunch domain builder logic. These preliminary changes revolve around introducing the struct boot_module and struct boot_domain structures. This includes converting the dom0 construction path to use these structures. These abstractions lay the groundwork to transform and extend the dom0 construction logic into a limited, but general domain builder. The splitting of Hyperlaunch into a pair of series was twofold, to reduce the effort in reviewing a much larger series, and to reduce the effort in handling the knock-on effects to the construction logic from requested review changes. A note on v4: For v4, two significant direction changes occurred. First, the series was pulled back from attempting to be in common and instead focused on being purely an x86 capability. Second, the changes were broken down into much smaller change sets and ordered to provide a more ordered evolution of the code. To the most extent possible, it was attempted to ensure all v3 comments were transcribed accordingly with the scope change. Much thanks to AMD for supporting this work. Documentation on Hyperlaunch: https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Hyperlaunch Original Hyperlaunch v1 patch series: https://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2022-07/msg00345.html V/r, Daniel P. Smith Changes since v3: - reduced scope to x86 only - broke changes into a smaller chunks with a linear progression - concerns about deconflicting with Arm deferred - conversion from mb1 to boot modules no longer attempted at entry points - the temporary conversion function is now the permenant means to convert - incorporated suggestion from Andy Cooper for handling bootstrap_map Changes since v2: - combined v2 patches 7 and 8 for common review - rebased the v2 series onto the current tip of staging (sorry) - fixed the placement of the patch changelogs - provided the changes description in the cover letter Changes since v1: - the v2 and v3 series implement functionality from v1 patches 2-4 - v2 series objective is to enable efficient patch review in support of merging the functionality into the hypervisor. It implements a subset of the v1 series, incorporating changes from community feedback. - the bootstrap map is made accessible early in the v2 series via both multiboot and boot module arguments until later in the series where multiboot use is retired. This allows for incremental conversion across several patches from multiboot to boot modules. - the 32-bit x86 boot environment header is removed, and changes are made to allow the new common bootinfo headers to be used instead. - Arm and RISC-V architecture bootinfo headers are added to ensure that builds on those architectures can complete correctly. - The KConfig patch to set the maximum number of boot modules allowed is not included in this series, replaced with a static maximum define.
