commit ff1e22e7a638a0782f54f81a6c9cb139aca2da35 upstream.

Moving an unmasked irq may result in irq handler being invoked on both
source and target CPUs.

With 2-level this can happen as follows:

On source CPU:
        evtchn_2l_handle_events() -&gt;
            generic_handle_irq() -&gt;
                handle_edge_irq() -&gt;
                   eoi_pirq():
                       irq_move_irq(data);

                       /***** WE ARE HERE *****/

                       if (VALID_EVTCHN(evtchn))
                           clear_evtchn(evtchn);

If at this moment target processor is handling an unrelated event in
evtchn_2l_handle_events()'s loop it may pick up our event since target's
cpu_evtchn_mask claims that this event belongs to it *and* the event is
unmasked and still pending. At the same time, source CPU will continue
executing its own handle_edge_irq().

With FIFO interrupt the scenario is similar: irq_move_irq() may result
in a EVTCHNOP_unmask hypercall which, in turn, may make the event
pending on the target CPU.

We can avoid this situation by moving and clearing the event while
keeping event masked.

Commit 8135cf8b092723dbfcc611fe6fdcb3a36c9951c5 (xen/pciback: Save
xen_pci_op commands before processing it) broke enabling MSI-X because
it would never copy the resulting vectors into the response.  The
number of vectors requested was being overwritten by the return value
(typically zero for success).

Save the number of vectors before processing the op, so the correct
number of vectors are copied afterwards.

Commit 408fb0e5aa7fda0059db282ff58c3b2a4278baa0 (xen/pciback: Don't
allow MSI-X ops if PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY is not set) prevented enabling
MSI-X on passed-through virtual functions, because it checked the VF
for PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY but this is not a valid bit for VFs.

Instead, check the physical function for PCI_COMMAND_MEMORY.

When len is greater than UINT_MAX - sizeof(*rb), in next allocation,
it can overflow integer range and allocates small size of heap.
After that, memcpy will overflow the allocated heap.
Therefore, it needs to check the size of given length.

<title>xen/scsiback: avoid warnings when adding multiple LUNs to a domain</title>

When adding more than one LUN to a frontend a warning for a failed
assignment is issued in dom0 for each already existing LUN. Avoid this
warning by checking for a LUN already existing when existence is
allowed (scsiback_do_add_lun() called with try == 1).

As the LUN existence check is needed now for a third time, factor it
out into a function. This in turn leads to a more or less complete
rewrite of scsiback_del_translation_entry() which will now return a
proper error code in case of failure.

When adding a new frontend to xen-scsiback don't decrement the number
of active frontends in case of no error. Doing so results in a failure
