[v2,00/19] xen: introduce CONFIG_SYSCTL

Message

Penny, Zheng March 26, 2025, 5:50 a.m. UTC

It can be beneficial for some dom0less systems to further reduce Xen footprint
and disable some hypercalls handling code, which may not to be used & required
in such systems. Each hypercall has a separate option to keep configuration
flexible.

Options to disable hypercalls:
- sysctl
- domctl
- hvm
- physdev
- platform

This patch serie is only focusing on introducing CONFIG_SYSCTL. Different
options will be covered in different patch serie.

Features, like LIVEPATCH, Overlay DTB, which fully rely on sysctl op, are also
being wrapped with proper CONFIG_SYSCTL, to reduce Xen footprint as much as
possible.

It is based on Stefano Stabellini's commit "xen: introduce kconfig options to
disable hypercalls"(
https://lore.kernel.org/xen-devel/[e-mail])
