[RFC PATCH v5 4/4] x86/acrn: Add hypercall for ACRN guest

From: Zhao Yakui
Date: Tue Apr 23 2019 - 20:57:08 EST


When ACRN hypervisor is detected, the hypercall is needed so that the
ACRN guest can query/config some settings. For example: it can be used
to query the resources in hypervisor and manage the CPU/memory/device/
interrupt for the guest operating system.

So add the hypercall so that ACRN guest can communicate with the
low-level ACRN hypervisor. It is implemented with the VMCALL instruction.

V1->V2: Refine the comments for the function of acrn_hypercall0/1/2
v2->v3: Use the "vmcall" mnemonic to replace hard-code byte definition
v4->v5: Use _ASM_X86_ACRN_HYPERCALL_H instead of _ASM_X86_ACRNHYPERCALL_H to
align the header file of acrn_hypercall.h
Use the "VMCALL" mnemonic in comment/commit log.
Uppercase r8/rdi/rsi/rax for hypercall parameter registers in comment.
