Subject: [PATCH v3 4/4] xen-blkback: support dynamic unbind/bind
By simply re-attaching to shared rings during connect_ring() rather than
assuming they are freshly allocated (i.e assuming the counters are zero)
it is possible for vbd instances to be unbound and re-bound from and to
(respectively) a running guest.
This has been tested by running:
while true;
do fio --name=randwrite --ioengine=libaio --iodepth=16 \
--rw=randwrite --bs=4k --direct=1 --size=1G --verify=crc32;
done
in a PV guest whilst running:
while true;
do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind;
echo unbound;
sleep 5;
echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >bind;
echo bound;
sleep 3;
done
in dom0 from /sys/bus/xen-backend/drivers/vbd to continuously unbind and
re-bind its system disk image.
This is a highly useful feature for a backend module as it allows it to be
unloaded and re-loaded (i.e. updated) without requiring domUs to be halted.
This was also tested by running:
while true;
do echo vbd-$DOMID-$VBD >unbind;
echo unbound;
sleep 5;
rmmod xen-blkback;
echo unloaded;
sleep 1;
modprobe xen-blkback;
echo bound;
cd $(pwd);
sleep 3;
done
in dom0 whilst running the same loop as above in the (single) PV guest.
Some (less stressful) testing has also been done using a Windows HVM guest
with the latest 9.0 PV drivers installed.

v3:
- Constify sring_common and re-work error handling in xen_blkif_map()
v2:
- Apply a sanity check to the value of rsp_prod and fail the re-attach
if it is implausible
- Set allow_rebind to prevent ring from being closed on unbind
- Update test workload from dd to fio (with verification)
