Vpl011 emulation is enabled for a guest domain in Xen only when it is
enabled through an option in libxl provided by the user through
guest configuration.

The pl011 enable/disable knob in libxl is introduced in the following
patch:

xen/arm: vpl011: Add support for vuart in libxl

This is ARM code, so my opinion may not mean much, but why two
if()s instead of one, and why no blank line after your addition?

As expressed before, I object to this addition, as doing things this
way does not scale. I don't think I've seen any proper reply to my
previous objection, and the patch description here certainly does
not justify why an exception should be made in this case. As a
side note, why bit 6 instead of the first available one (5)?

I am planning to remove the usage of domain creation flag to check
whether vuart is enabled/disabled. Please see my next comment. With
that change, domain_vpl011_init() will be called always. The
domain_vpl011_init() will check whether vuart is enabled or disabled
in the config structure passed. If vuart is enabled then it will go
ahead with vpl011 initialization else it will return without
initializing vpl011.

Sorry I missed to address this review comment. I will pass the vuart
enable/disable information through the configuration structure
xc_domain_configuration_t, which is passed transparently to
domain_vpl011_init() by the tool stack. With that change, we need not
use domain creation flags.

Please don't do that. The arch code decides whether domain_vpl011_init 
not the invert.

I would much prefer if you do:

if ( enable_vuart && ((rc = domain_vpl011_init(d, config) != 0) )
   goto fail;

or
    rc = (enable_vuart) ? domain_vpl011_init(d, config) : 0;
    if ( rc != 0 )
      goto fail;

I was wondering whether it would be better to defer the PL011 creation 
to a domctl. This could be called after the domain is created with all 
the information required (MMIO region, Console PFN...).

This would also make the migration support more trivial as the we will 
not need to know in advance whether a UART is been used.

Any opinions?

Wasn't that the suggestion given during v1 review?

Would there be race condition where the guest tries to access the
pl011 mmio region (as the domain has been created) but pl011 is not
initialized yet as domctl is not called? What could be an appropriate
place to call this domctl? It should be before xenstore is populated
with vuart ring-ref/port information.

There are no race condition. The domain will only be started when 
everything has been created by calling XEN_DOMCTL_unpausedomain.

The DOMCTL createdomain only initialize the basic structure for the 
domain, after the hypercall the domain is not in state to be run 
because, for instance, the vCPUs were not allocated (see 
XEN_DOMCTL_max_vcpus) and the guest RAM were not populated.

I am not very familiar with the libxl code, but I think 
libxl__arch_domain_create should be a good candidate. I will let Ian and 
Wei confirm that.

I have defined a new DOMCTL xc_dom_vpl011_init() which collects all
the required information such as
ring buffer GFN, console domid and returns the event channel. This
function is being called from libxl__build_dom(), which is called
from inside libxl__build_pv() at the last.

This new function does away with the earlier set of domctls defined
for get/set of gfn/eventchannels. It also does away with the tinkering
of
domain creation flags while creating a domain.
