Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 2ebdc42630 xen/pciback: Have 'passthrough' option instead of XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND_PASS and XEN_PCIDEV_BACKEND_VPCI
.. compile options. This way the user can decide during runtime whether they
want the default 'vpci' (virtual pci passthrough) or where the PCI devices
are passed in without any BDF renumbering. The option 'passthrough' allows
the user to toggle the it from 0 (vpci) to 1 (passthrough).

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 778999703d xen/pciback: Remove the DEBUG option.
The latter is easily fixed - by the developer compiling the
module with -DDEBUG. And during runtime - the loglvl provides
quite a lot of useful data.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk a92336a117 xen/pciback: Drop two backends, squash and cleanup some code.
- Remove the slot and controller controller backend as they
   are not used.
 - Document the find pciback_[read|write]_config_[byte|word|dword]
   to make it easier to find.
 - Collapse the code from conf_space_capability_msi into pciback_ops.c
 - Collapse conf_space_capability_[pm|vpd].c in conf_space_capability.c
   [and remove the conf_space_capability.h file]
 - Rename all visible functions from pciback to xen_pcibk.
 - Rename all the printk/pr_info, etc that use the "pciback" to say
   "xen-pciback".
 - Convert functions that are not referenced outside the code to be
   static to save on name space.
 - Do the same thing for structures that are internal to the driver.
 - Run checkpatch.pl after the renames and fixup its warnings and
   fix any compile errors caused by the variable rename
 - Cleanup any structs that checkpath.pl commented about or just
   look odd.

Ian Campbell a0b2fa8ef8 xen: rename pciback module to xen-pciback.
pciback is rather generic for a modular distro style kernel.

Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk 30edc14bf3 xen/pciback: xen pci backend driver.
This is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
drivers/pci/xen-pcifront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs.

The PV protocol is rather simple. There is page shared with the guest,
which has the 'struct xen_pci_sharedinfo' embossed in it. The backend
has a thread that is kicked every-time the structure is changed and
based on the operation field it performs specific tasks:

 XEN_PCI_OP_conf_[read|write]:
   Read/Write 0xCF8/0xCFC filtered data. (conf_space*.c)
   Based on which field is probed, we either enable/disable the PCI
   device, change power state, read VPD, etc. The major goal of this
   call is to provide a Physical IRQ (PIRQ) to the guest.

   The PIRQ is Xen hypervisor global IRQ value irrespective of the IRQ
   is tied in to the IO-APIC, or is a vector. For GSI type
   interrupts, the PIRQ==GSI holds. For MSI/MSI-X the
   PIRQ value != Linux IRQ number (thought PIRQ==vector).

   Please note, that with Xen, all interrupts (except those level shared ones)
   are injected directly to the guest - there is no host interaction.

 XEN_PCI_OP_[enable|disable]_msi[|x] (pciback_ops.c)
   Enables/disables the MSI/MSI-X capability of the device. These operations
   setup the MSI/MSI-X vectors for the guest and pass them to the frontend.

   When the device is activated, the interrupts are directly injected in the
   guest without involving the host.

 XEN_PCI_OP_aer_[detected|resume|mmio|slotreset]: In case of failure,
  perform the appropriate AER commands on the guest. Right now that is
  a cop-out - we just kill the guest.

Besides implementing those commands, it can also

 - hide a PCI device from the host. When booting up, the user can specify
   xen-pciback.hide=(1:0:0)(BDF..) so that host does not try to use the
   device.

The driver was lifted from linux-2.6.18.hg tree and fixed up
so that it could compile under v3.0. Per suggestion from Jesse Barnes
moved the driver to drivers/xen/xen-pciback.
