/*
 * These macros are intended to wrap calls into a paravirt_ops
 * operation, so that they can be later identified and patched at
 * runtime.
 *
 * Normally, a call to a pv_op function is a simple indirect call:
 * (paravirt_ops.operations)(args...).
 *
 * Unfortunately, this is a relatively slow operation for modern CPUs,
 * because it cannot necessarily determine what the destination
 * address is.  In this case, the address is a runtime constant, so at
 * the very least we can patch the call to e a simple direct call, or
 * ideally, patch an inline implementation into the callsite.  (Direct
 * calls are essentially free, because the call and return addresses
 * are completely predictable.)
 *
 * These macros rely on the standard gcc "regparm(3)" calling
 * convention, in which the first three arguments are placed in %eax,
 * %edx, %ecx (in that order), and the remaining arguments are placed
 * on the stack.  All caller-save registers (eax,edx,ecx) are expected
 * to be modified (either clobbered or used for return values).
 *
 * The call instruction itself is marked by placing its start address
 * and size into the .parainstructions section, so that
 * apply_paravirt() in arch/i386/kernel/alternative.c can do the
 * appropriate patching under the control of the backend paravirt_ops
 * implementation.
 *
 * Unfortunately there's no way to get gcc to generate the args setup
 * for the call, and then allow the call itself to be generated by an
 * inline asm.  Because of this, we must do the complete arg setup and
 * return value handling from within these macros.  This is fairly
 * cumbersome.
 *
 * There are 5 sets of PVOP_* macros for dealing with 0-4 arguments.
 * It could be extended to more arguments, but there would be little
 * to be gained from that.  For each number of arguments, there are
 * the two VCALL and CALL variants for void and non-void functions.
 *
 * When there is a return value, the invoker of the macro must specify
 * the return type.  The macro then uses sizeof() on that type to
 * determine whether its a 32 or 64 bit value, and places the return
 * in the right register(s) (just %eax for 32-bit, and %edx:%eax for
 * 64-bit).
 *
 * 64-bit arguments are passed as a pair of adjacent 32-bit arguments
 * in low,high order.
 *
 * Small structures are passed and returned in registers.  The macro
 * calling convention can't directly deal with this, so the wrapper
 * functions must do this.
 *
 * These PVOP_* macros are only defined within this header.  This
 * means that all uses must be wrapped in inline functions.  This also
 * makes sure the incoming and outgoing types are always correct.
