Commit fe0480d6 and friends added BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK as a way to
avoid wasting time on a preliminary write-zero request that will later
be rewritten by actual data, if it is known that the write-zero
request will use a slow fallback; but in doing so, could not optimize
for NBD. The NBD specification is now considering an extension that
will allow passing on those semantics; this patch updates the new
protocol bits and 'qemu-nbd --list' output to recognize the bit, as
well as the new errno value possible when using the new flag; while
upcoming patches will improve the client to use the feature when
present, and the server to advertise support for it.
The NBD spec recommends (but not requires) that ENOTSUP be avoided for
all but failures of a fast zero (the only time it is mandatory to
avoid an ENOTSUP failure is when fast zero is supported but not
requested during write zeroes; the questionable use is for ENOTSUP to
other actions like a normal write request). However, clients that get
an unexpected ENOTSUP will either already be treating it the same as
EINVAL, or may appreciate the extra bit of information. We were
equally loose for returning EOVERFLOW in more situations than
recommended by the spec, so if it turns out to be a problem in
practice, a later patch can tighten handling for both error codes.

[eblake: tweak commit message, also handle EOPNOTSUPP]
The NBD specification defines NBD_FLAG_CAN_MULTI_CONN, which can be
advertised when the server promises cache consistency between
simultaneous clients (basically, rules that determine what FUA and
flush from one client are able to guarantee for reads from another
client). When we don't permit simultaneous clients (such as qemu-nbd
without -e), the bit makes no sense; and for writable images, we
probably have a lot more work before we can declare that actions from
one client are cache-consistent with actions from another. But for
read-only images, where flush isn't changing any data, we might as
well advertise multi-conn support. What's more, advertisement of the
bit makes it easier for clients to determine if 'qemu-nbd -e' was in
use, where a second connection will succeed rather than hang until the
first client goes away.
This patch affects qemu as server in advertising the bit. We may want
to consider patches to qemu as client to attempt parallel connections
for higher throughput by spreading the load over those connections
when a server advertises multi-conn, but for now sticking to one
connection per nbd:// BDS is okay.

The vhost-user specification does not explain when
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ must be implemented. This may lead
implementors of vhost-user masters to believe that this protocol feature
is required for any device that has multiple virtqueues. That would be
a mistake since existing vhost-user slaves offer multiple virtqueues but
do not advertise VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ.
For example, a vhost-net device with one rx/tx queue pair is not
multiqueue. The slave does not need to advertise
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ. Therefore the master must assume it has these
virtqueues and cannot rely on askingt the slave how many virtqueues
exist.
Extend the specification to explain the different between true
multiqueue and regular devices with a fixed virtqueue layout.

The "Multiple queue support" section makes references to vhost-user-net
"queue pairs". This is confusing for two reasons:
1. This actually applies to all device types, not just vhost-user-net.
2. VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM returns the number of virtqueues, not the
number of queue pairs.
Reword the section so that the vhost-user-net specific part is relegated
to the very end: we acknowledge that vhost-user-net historically
automatically enabled the first queue pair.

Add a new vhost-user message to give a unix socket to a vhost-user

Back when I started that work, I added a new GPU channel because the
vhost-user protocol wasn't bidirectional. Since then, there is a
vhost-user-slave channel for the slave to send requests to the master.
We could extend it with GPU messages. However, the GPU protocol is
quite orthogonal to vhost-user, thus I chose to have a new dedicated
channel.

By default Sphinx wants to build a single manual at once.
For QEMU, this doesn't suit us, because we want to have
separate manuals for "Developer's Guide", "User Manual",
and so on, and we don't want to ship the Developer's Guide
to end-users. However, we don't want to completely duplicate
conf.py for each manual, and we'd like to continue to
support "build all docs in one run" for third-party sites
like readthedocs.org.
Make the top-level conf.py support two usage forms:
(1) as a common config file which is included by the conf.py
for each of QEMU's manuals: in this case sphinx-build is run
multiple times, once per subdirectory.
(2) as a top level conf file which will result in building all
the manuals into a single document: in this case sphinx-build is
run once, on the top-level docs directory.
Provide per-manual conf.py files and top level pages for
our first two manuals:
* QEMU Developer's Guide (docs/devel)
* QEMU System Emulation Management and Interoperability Guide

It can be useful to figure out which NBD protocol features are
exposed by a server, as well as what features a client will
take advantage of if available, for a given qemu release. It's
not always precise to base features on version numbers (thanks
to downstream backports), but any documentation is better than
making users search through git logs themselves.
This patch originally stemmed from a request to document that
pristine 3.0 has a known bug where NBD_OPT_LIST_META_CONTEXT
with 0 queries forgot to advertise an available
"qemu:dirty-bitmap" context, but documenting bugs like this (or
the fact that 3.0 also botched NBD_CMD_CACHE) gets to be too
much details, especially since buggy releases will be less
likely connection targets over time. Instead, I chose to just
remind users to check stable release branches.

When a QMP client sends in-band commands more quickly that we can
process them, we can either queue them without limit (QUEUE), drop
commands when the queue is full (DROP), or suspend receiving commands
when the queue is full (SUSPEND). None of them is ideal:
* QUEUE lets a misbehaving client make QEMU eat memory without bounds.
Not such a hot idea.
* With DROP, the client has to cope with dropped in-band commands. To
inform the client, we send a COMMAND_DROPPED event then. The event is
flawed by design in two ways: it's ambiguous (see commit d621cfe0a1),
and it brings back the "eat memory without bounds" problem.
* With SUSPEND, the client has to manage the flow of in-band commands to
keep the monitor available for out-of-band commands.
We currently DROP. Switch to SUSPEND.
Managing the flow of in-band commands to keep the monitor available for
out-of-band commands isn't really hard: just count the number of
"outstanding" in-band commands (commands sent minus replies received),
and if it exceeds the limit, hold back additional ones until it drops
below the limit again.
Note that we need to be careful pairing the suspend with a resume, or
else the monitor will hang, possibly forever. And here since we need to
make sure both:
(1) popping request from the req queue, and
(2) reading length of the req queue
will be in the same critical section, we let the pop function take the
corresponding queue lock when there is a request, then we release the
lock from the caller.

Although off_t permits up to 63 bits (8EB) of file offsets, in
practice, we're going to hit other limits first. Document some
of those limits in the qcow2 spec (some are inherent, others are
implementation choices of qemu), and how choice of cluster size
can influence some of the limits.
While we cannot map any uncompressed virtual cluster to any
address higher than 64 PB (56 bits) (due to the current L1/L2
field encoding stopping at bit 55), qemu's cap of 8M for the
refcount table can still access larger host addresses for some
combinations of large clusters and small refcount_order. For
comparison, ext4 with 4k blocks caps files at 16PB.
Another interesting limit: for compressed clusters, the L2 layout
requires an ever-smaller maximum host offset as cluster size gets
larger, down to a 512 TB maximum with 2M clusters. In particular,
note that with a cluster size of 8k or smaller, the L2 entry for
a compressed cluster could technically point beyond the 64PB mark,
but when you consider that with 8k clusters and refcount_order = 0,
you cannot access beyond 512T without exceeding qemu's limit of an
8M cap on the refcount table, it is unlikely that any image in the
wild has attempted to do so. To be safe, let's document that bits
beyond 55 in a compressed cluster must be 0.

Moreover, it's not specific to QGA.

Commit cf869d5317 "qmp: support out-of-band (oob) execution" added a
general mechanism for command-independent arguments just for an
out-of-band flag:
The "control" key is introduced to store this extra flag. "control"
field is used to store arguments that are shared by all the commands,
rather than command specific arguments. Let "run-oob" be the first.
However, it failed to reject unknown members of "control". For
instance, in QMP command
{"execute": "query-name", "id": 42, "control": {"crap": true}}
"crap" gets silently ignored.
Instead of fixing this, revert the general "control" mechanism
(because YAGNI), and do it the way I initially proposed, with key
"exec-oob". Simpler code, simpler interface.
An out-of-band command
{"execute": "migrate-pause", "id": 42, "control": {"run-oob": true}}
becomes
{"exec-oob": "migrate-pause", "id": 42}

this is not made explicit in the specs, so let's document it.

Without a dedicated protocol feature, QEMU cannot know whether
the backend can handle VHOST_USER_SET_CONFIG and
VHOST_USER_GET_CONFIG messages.
This patch adds a protocol feature that is only advertised by
QEMU if the device implements the config ops. Vhost user init
fails if the device support the feature but the backend doesn't.
The backend should only send VHOST_USER_SLAVE_CONFIG_CHANGE_MSG
requests if the protocol feature has been negotiated.

This message is sent just before the end of postcopy to get the
client to stop using userfault since we wont respond to any more
requests. It should close userfaultfd so that any other pages
get mapped to the backing file automatically by the kernel, since
at this point we know we've received everything.

We need a better way, but at the moment we need the address of the
mappings sent back to qemu so it can interpret the messages on the
userfaultfd it reads.
This is done as a 3 stage set:
QEMU -> client
set_mem_table
mmap stuff, get addresses
client -> qemu
here are the addresses
qemu -> client
OK - now you can use them
That ensures that qemu has registered the new addresses in it's
userfault code before the client starts accessing them.
Note: We don't ask for the default 'ack' reply since we've got our own.

Move qapi-schema.json to qapi/, so it's next to its modules, and all
files get generated to qapi/, not just the ones generated for modules.
Consistently name the generated files qapi-MODULE.EXT:
qmp-commands.[ch] become qapi-commands.[ch], qapi-event.[ch] become
qapi-events.[ch], and qmp-introspect.[ch] become qapi-introspect.[ch].
This gets rid of the temporary hacks in scripts/qapi/commands.py,
scripts/qapi/events.py, and scripts/qapi/common.py.

This patch fixes several mistakes in the documentation of the
compressed cluster descriptor:
1) the documentation claims that the cluster descriptor contains the
number of sectors used to store the compressed data, but what it
actually contains is the number of sectors *minus one* or, in other
words, the number of additional sectors after the first one.
2) the width of the fields is incorrectly specified. The number of bits
used by each field is
x = 62 - (cluster_bits - 8) for the offset field
y = (cluster_bits - 8) for the size field
So the offset field's location is [0, x-1], not [0, x] as stated.
3) the size field does not contain the size of the compressed data,
but rather the number of sectors where that data is stored. The
compressed data starts at the exact point specified in the offset
field and ends when there's enough data to produce a cluster of
decompressed data. Both points can be in the middle of a sector,
allowing several compressed clusters to be stored next to one
another, sharing sectors if necessary.
