This addresses the comments from v22.
The functional changes are (the VOF ones need retesting with Pegasos2):
(VOF) setprop will start failing if the machine class callback
did not handle it;
(VOF) unit addresses are lowered in path_offset();
(SPAPR) /chosen/bootargs is initialized from kernel_cmdline if
the client did not change it.

Linux uses RTAS functions to access PCI devices so we need to provide
these with VOF. Implement some of the most important functions to
allow booting Linux with VOF. With this the board is now usable
without a binary ROM image and we can enable it by default as other

The pegasos2 board comes with an Open Firmware compliant ROM based on
SmartFirmware but it has some changes that are not open source
therefore the ROM binary cannot be included in QEMU. Guests running on
the board however depend on services provided by the firmware. The
Virtual Open Firmware recently added to QEMU implements a minimal set
of these services to allow some guests to boot without the original
firmware. This patch adds VOF as the default firmware for pegasos2
which allows booting Linux and MorphOS via -kernel option while a ROM
image can still be used with -bios for guests that don't run with VOF.

There are several new L1D cache flush bits added to the hcall which reflect
hardware security features for speculative cache access issues.
These behaviours are now being specified as negative in order to simplify
patched kernel compatibility with older firmware (a new problem found in
existing systems would automatically be vulnerable).
[dwg: Technically this changes behaviour for existing machine types.
After discussion with Nick, we've determined this is safe, because
the worst that will happen if a guest gets the wrong information due
to a migration is that it will perform some unnecessary workarounds,
but will remain correct and secure (well, as secure as it was going
to be anyway). In addition the change only affects cap-cfpc=safe
which is not enabled by default, and in fact is not possible to set
on any current hardware (though it's expected it will be possible on
POWER10)]

The PAPR platform describes an OS environment that's presented by
a combination of a hypervisor and firmware. The features it specifies
require collaboration between the firmware and the hypervisor.
Since the beginning, the runtime component of the firmware (RTAS) has
been implemented as a 20 byte shim which simply forwards it to
a hypercall implemented in qemu. The boot time firmware component is
SLOF - but a build that's specific to qemu, and has always needed to be
updated in sync with it. Even though we've managed to limit the amount
of runtime communication we need between qemu and SLOF, there's some,
and it has become increasingly awkward to handle as we've implemented
new features.
This implements a boot time OF client interface (CI) which is
enabled by a new "x-vof" pseries machine option (stands for "Virtual Open
Firmware). When enabled, QEMU implements the custom H_OF_CLIENT hcall
which implements Open Firmware Client Interface (OF CI). This allows
using a smaller stateless firmware which does not have to manage
the device tree.
The new "vof.bin" firmware image is included with source code under
pc-bios/. It also includes RTAS blob.
This implements a handful of CI methods just to get -kernel/-initrd
working. In particular, this implements the device tree fetching and
simple memory allocator - "claim" (an OF CI memory allocator) and updates
"/memory@0/available" to report the client about available memory.
This implements changing some device tree properties which we know how
to deal with, the rest is ignored. To allow changes, this skips
fdt_pack() when x-vof=on as not packing the blob leaves some room for
appending.
In absence of SLOF, this assigns phandles to device tree nodes to make
device tree traversing work.
When x-vof=on, this adds "/chosen" every time QEMU (re)builds a tree.
This adds basic instances support which are managed by a hash map
ihandle -> [phandle].
Before the guest started, the used memory is:
0..e60 - the initial firmware
8000..10000 - stack
400000.. - kernel
3ea0000.. - initramdisk
This OF CI does not implement "interpret".
Unlike SLOF, this does not format uninitialized nvram. Instead, this
includes a disk image with pre-formatted nvram.
With this basic support, this can only boot into kernel directly.
However this is just enough for the petitboot kernel and initradmdisk to
boot from any possible source. Note this requires reasonably recent guest
kernel with:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=df5be5be8735
The immediate benefit is much faster booting time which especially
crucial with fully emulated early CPU bring up environments. Also this
may come handy when/if GRUB-in-the-userspace sees light of the day.
This separates VOF and sPAPR in a hope that VOF bits may be reused by
other POWERPC boards which do not support pSeries.
This assumes potential support for booting from QEMU backends
such as blockdev or netdev without devices/drivers used.

This commit attempts to fix a technical hiccup first mentioned by Richard
Henderson in
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-05/msg06247.html
To sumarize the hiccup here, when radix-style mmus are translating an
address, they might need to call a second level of translation, with
hypervisor privileges. However, the way it was being done up until
this point meant that the second level translation had the same
privileges as the first level. It could lead to a bug in address
translation when running KVM inside a TCG guest, but this bug was never
experienced by users, so this isn't as much a bug fix as it is a
correctness cleanup.
This patch attempts that cleanup by making radix64_*_xlate functions
receive the mmu_idx, and passing one with the correct permission for the
second level translation.
The mmuidx macros added by this patch are only correct for non-bookE
mmus, because BookE style set the IS and DS bits inverted and there
might be other subtle differences. However, there doesn't seem to be
BookE cpus that have radix-style mmus, so we left a comment there to
document the issue, in case a machine does have that and was missed.
As part of this cleanup, we now need to send the correct mmmu_idx
when calling get_phys_page_debug, otherwise we might not be able to see the
memory that the CPU could

QEMU reserves space for RTAS via /rtas/rtas-size which tells the client
how much space the RTAS requires to work which includes the RTAS binary
blob implementing RTAS runtime. Because pseries supports FWNMI which
requires plenty of space, QEMU reserves more than 2KB which is
enough for the RTAS blob as it is just 20 bytes (under QEMU).
Since FWNMI reset delivery was added, RTAS_SIZE macro is not used anymore.
This replaces RTAS_SIZE with RTAS_MIN_SIZE and uses it in
the /rtas/rtas-size calculation to account for the RTAS blob.

PowerPC CPUs use big endian by default but starting with POWER7,
server grade CPUs use the ILE bit of the LPCR special purpose
register to decide on the endianness to use when handling
interrupts. This gives a clue to QEMU on the endianness the
guest kernel is running, which is needed when generating an
ELF dump of the guest or when delivering an FWNMI machine
check interrupt.
Commit 382d2db62b ("target-ppc: Introduce callback for interrupt
endianness") added a class method to PowerPCCPUClass to modelize
this : default implementation returns a fixed "big endian" value,
while POWER7 and newer do the LPCR_ILE check. This is suboptimal
as it forces to implement the method for every new CPU family, and
it is very unlikely that this will ever be different than what we
have today.
We basically only have three cases to consider:
a) CPU doesn't have an LPCR => big endian
b) CPU has an LPCR but doesn't support the ILE bit => big endian
c) CPU has an LPCR and supports the ILE bit => little or big endian
Instead of class methods, introduce an inline helper that checks the
ILE bit in the LPCR_MASK to decide on the outcome. The new helper
words little endian instead of big endian. This allows to drop a !
operator in ppc_cpu_do_fwnmi_machine_check().

Switch from QemuOpts to keyval. This enables the introduction
of non-scalar machine properties, and JSON syntax in the future.
For JSON syntax to be supported right now, we would have to
consider what would happen if string-based dictionaries (produced by
-M key=val) were to be merged with strongly-typed dictionaries
(produced by -M {'key': 123}).
The simplest way out is to never enter the situation, and only allow one
-M option when JSON syntax is in use. However, we want options such as
-smp to become syntactic sugar for -M, and this is a problem; as soon
as -smp becomes a shortcut for -M, QEMU would forbid using -M '{....}'
together with -smp. Therefore, allowing JSON syntax right now for -M
would be a forward-compatibility nightmare and it would be impossible
anyway to introduce -M incrementally in tools.
Instead, support for JSON syntax is delayed until after the main
options are converted to QOM compound properties. These include -boot,
-acpitable, -smbios, -m, -semihosting-config, -rtc and -fw_cfg. Once JSON
syntax is introduced, these options will _also_ be forbidden together
with -M '{...}'.

Allow parsing multiple keyval sequences into the same dictionary.
This will be used to simplify the parsing of the -M command line
option, which is currently a .merge_lists = true QemuOpts group.

This patch introduces a function that merges two keyval-produced
(or keyval-like) QDicts. It can be used to emulate the behavior of
.merge_lists = true QemuOpts groups, merging -readconfig sections and
command-line options in a single QDict, and also to implement -set.
