The 'singlestep' HMP command is confusing, because it doesn't
actually have anything to do with single-stepping the CPU. What it
does do is force TCG emulation to put one guest instruction in each
TB, which can be useful in some situations.
Create a new HMP command 'one-insn-per-tb', so we can document that
'singlestep' is just a deprecated synonym for it, and eventually
perhaps drop it.
We aren't obliged to do deprecate-and-drop for HMP commands,
but it's easy enough to do so, so we do.

Running the test-hmp with V=2 up to V=9 runs the test in verbose mode,
but running for example with V=10 falls back to non-verbose mode ...
Improve this oddity by properly treating the argument as a number.

The generic 'migrate_set_parameters' command handle all types of param.
Only the QMP commands were documented in the deprecations page, but the
rationale for deprecating applies equally to HMP, and the replacements
exist. Furthermore the HMP commands are just shims to the QMP commands,
so removing the latter breaks the former unless they get re-implemented.

These were deprecated since 4.0, remove both HMP and QMP variants.
Users should use device_add command instead. To get list of
possible CPUs and options, use 'info hotpluggable-cpus' HMP
or query-hotpluggable-cpus QMP command.

With QEMU 4.0 an incompatible change was added to pc_piix, which makes it
practical impossible to migrate domUs started with qemu2 or qemu3 to
newer qemu versions. Commit 7fccf2a068
added and enabled a new member "smbus_no_migration_support". In commit
4ab2f2a8aa the vmstate_acpi got new
elements, which are conditionally filled. As a result, an incoming
migration expected smbus related data unless smbus migration was
disabled for a given MachineClass. Since first commit forgot to handle
'xenfv', domUs started with QEMU 4.x are incompatible with their QEMU
siblings.
Using other existing machine types, such as 'pc-i440fx-3.1', is not
possible because 'xenfv' creates the 'xen-platform' PCI device at
00:02.0, while all other variants to run a domU would create it at
00:04.0.
To cover both the existing and the broken case of 'xenfv' in a single
qemu binary, a new compatibility variant of 'xenfv-4.2' must be added
which targets domUs started with qemu 4.2. The existing 'xenfv' restores
compatibility of QEMU 5.x with qemu 3.1.
Host admins who started domUs with QEMU 4.x (preferrable QEMU 4.2)
have to use a wrapper script which appends '-machine xenfv-4.2' to
the device-model command line. This is only required if there is no
maintenance window which allows to temporary shutdown the domU and
restart it with a fixed device-model.
The wrapper script is as simple as this:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 "$@" -machine xenfv-4.2
With xl this script will be enabled with device_model_override=, see
xl.cfg(5). To live migrate a domU, adjust the existing domU.cfg and pass
it to xl migrate or xl save/restore:
xl migrate -C new-domU.cfg domU remote-host
xl save domU CheckpointFile new-domU.cfg
xl restore new-domU.cfg CheckpointFile
With libvirt this script will be enabled with the <emulator> element in
domU.xml. Use 'virsh edit' prior 'virsh migrate' to replace the existing
<emulator> element to point it to the wrapper script.
