Introduce an iommufd object which allows the interaction
with the host /dev/iommu device.
The /dev/iommu can have been already pre-opened outside of qemu,
in which case the fd can be passed directly along with the
iommufd object:
This allows the iommufd object to be shared accross several
subsystems (VFIO, VDPA, ...). For example, libvirt would open
the /dev/iommu once.
If no fd is passed along with the iommufd object, the /dev/iommu
is opened by the qemu code.

When the discard-no-unref flag is enabled, we keep the reference for

But when a discard is executed on a snapshot/qcow2 image with backing,

When committing the snapshot to the backing file, not
discard_in_l2_slice is called but zero_in_l2_slice. Which did not had

Extend the migration URI to support file:<filename>. This can be used for
any migration scenario that does not require a reverse path. It can be
used as an alternative to 'exec:cat > file' in minimized containers that
do not contain /bin/sh, and it is easier to use than the fd:<fdname> URI.
It can be used in HMP commands, and as a qemu command-line parameter.
For best performance, guest ram should be shared and x-ignore-shared
should be true, so guest pages are not written to the file, in which case
the guest may remain running. If ram is not so configured, then the user
is advised to stop the guest first. Otherwise, a busy guest may re-dirty
the same page, causing it to be appended to the file multiple times,
and the file may grow unboundedly. That issue is being addressed in the
"fixed-ram" patch series.

These have been deprecated for a long time, and the introduction of
-audio in 7.1.0 has cemented the new way of specifying an audio backend's
parameters. However, there is still a need for simple configuration
of the audio backend in the desktop case; therefore, if no audiodev is
passed to audio_init(), go through a bunch of simple Audiodev* structures
and pick the first that can be initialized successfully.
The only QEMU_AUDIO_* option that is left in, waiting for a better idea,
is QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none which is used by qtest.
Remove all the parsing code, including the concept of "can_be_default"
audio drivers: now that audio_prio_list[] is only used in a single place,
wav can be excluded directly in that function.

For now, "share=off,readonly=on" would always result in us opening the
file R/O and mmap'ing the opened file MAP_PRIVATE R/O -- effectively
turning it into ROM.
Especially for VM templating, "share=off" is a common use case. However,
that use case is impossible with files that lack write permissions,
because "share=off,readonly=on" will not give us writable RAM.
The sole user of ROM via memory-backend-file are R/O NVDIMMs, but as we
have users (Kata Containers) that rely on the existing behavior --
malicious VMs should not be able to consume COW memory for R/O NVDIMMs --
we cannot change the semantics of "share=off,readonly=on"
So let's add a new "rom" property with on/off/auto values. "auto" is
the default and what most people will use: for historical reasons, to not
change the old semantics, it defaults to the value of the "readonly"
property.
For VM templating, one can now use:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=on,rom=off,...
But we'll disallow:
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=on,rom=off,...
because we would otherwise get an error when trying to mmap the R/O file
shared and writable. An explicit error message is cleaner.
We will also disallow for now:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=off,rom=on,...
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=off,rom=on,...
It's not harmful, but also not really required for now.
Alternatives that were abandoned:
* Make "unarmed=on" for the NVDIMM set the memory region container
readonly. We would still see a change of ROM->RAM and possibly run
into memslot limits with vhost-user. Further, there might be use cases
for "unarmed=on" that should still allow writing to that memory
(temporary files, system RAM, ...).
* Add a new "readonly=on/off/auto" parameter for NVDIMMs. Similar issues
as with "unarmed=on".
* Make "readonly" consume "on/off/file" instead of being a 'bool' type.
This would slightly changes the behavior of the "readonly" parameter:
values like true/false (as accepted by a 'bool'type) would no longer be
accepted.

AF_XDP is a network socket family that allows communication directly
with the network device driver in the kernel, bypassing most or all
of the kernel networking stack. In the essence, the technology is
pretty similar to netmap. But, unlike netmap, AF_XDP is Linux-native
and works with any network interfaces without driver modifications.
Unlike vhost-based backends (kernel, user, vdpa), AF_XDP doesn't
require access to character devices or unix sockets. Only access to
the network interface itself is necessary.
This patch implements a network backend that communicates with the
kernel by creating an AF_XDP socket. A chunk of userspace memory
is shared between QEMU and the host kernel. 4 ring buffers (Tx, Rx,
Fill and Completion) are placed in that memory along with a pool of
memory buffers for the packet data. Data transmission is done by
allocating one of the buffers, copying packet data into it and
placing the pointer into Tx ring. After transmission, device will
return the buffer via Completion ring. On Rx, device will take
a buffer form a pre-populated Fill ring, write the packet data into
it and place the buffer into Rx ring.
AF_XDP network backend takes on the communication with the host
kernel and the network interface and forwards packets to/from the
peer device in QEMU.
Usage example:
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=guest1,mac=00:16:35:AF:AA:5C
-netdev af-xdp,ifname=ens6f1np1,id=guest1,mode=native,queues=1
XDP program bridges the socket with a network interface. It can be
attached to the interface in 2 different modes:
1. skb - this mode should work for any interface and doesn't require
driver support. With a caveat of lower performance.
2. native - this does require support from the driver and allows to
bypass skb allocation in the kernel and potentially use
zero-copy while getting packets in/out userspace.
By default, QEMU will try to use native mode and fall back to skb.
Mode can be forced via 'mode' option. To force 'copy' even in native
mode, use 'force-copy=on' option. This might be useful if there is
some issue with the driver.
Option 'queues=N' allows to specify how many device queues should
be open. Note that all the queues that are not open are still
functional and can receive traffic, but it will not be delivered to
QEMU. So, the number of device queues should generally match the
QEMU configuration, unless the device is shared with something
else and the traffic re-direction to appropriate queues is correctly
configured on a device level (e.g. with ethtool -N).
'start-queue=M' option can be used to specify from which queue id
QEMU should start configuring 'N' queues. It might also be necessary
to use this option with certain NICs, e.g. MLX5 NICs. See the docs
for examples.
In a general case QEMU will need CAP_NET_ADMIN and CAP_SYS_ADMIN
or CAP_BPF capabilities in order to load default XSK/XDP programs to
the network interface and configure BPF maps. It is possible, however,
to run with no capabilities. For that to work, an external process
with enough capabilities will need to pre-load default XSK program,
create AF_XDP sockets and pass their file descriptors to QEMU process
on startup via 'sock-fds' option. Network backend will need to be
configured with 'inhibit=on' to avoid loading of the program.
QEMU will need 32 MB of locked memory (RLIMIT_MEMLOCK) per queue
or CAP_IPC_LOCK.
There are few performance challenges with the current network backends.
First is that they do not support IO threads. This means that data
path is handled by the main thread in QEMU and may slow down other
work or may be slowed down by some other work. This also means that
taking advantage of multi-queue is generally not possible today.
Another thing is that data path is going through the device emulation
code, which is not really optimized for performance. The fastest
"frontend" device is virtio-net. But it's not optimized for heavy
traffic either, because it expects such use-cases to be handled via
some implementation of vhost (user, kernel, vdpa). In practice, we
have virtio notifications and rcu lock/unlock on a per-packet basis
and not very efficient accesses to the guest memory. Communication
channels between backend and frontend devices do not allow passing
more than one packet at a time as well.
Some of these challenges can be avoided in the future by adding better
batching into device emulation or by implementing vhost-af-xdp variant.
There are also a few kernel limitations. AF_XDP sockets do not
support any kinds of checksum or segmentation offloading. Buffers
are limited to a page size (4K), i.e. MTU is limited. Multi-buffer
support implementation for AF_XDP is in progress, but not ready yet.
Also, transmission in all non-zero-copy modes is synchronous, i.e.
done in a syscall. That doesn't allow high packet rates on virtual
interfaces.
However, keeping in mind all of these challenges, current implementation
of the AF_XDP backend shows a decent performance while running on top
of a physical NIC with zero-copy support.
Test setup:
2 VMs running on 2 physical hosts connected via ConnectX6-Dx card.
Network backend is configured to open the NIC directly in native mode.
The driver supports zero-copy. NIC is configured to use 1 queue.
Inside a VM - iperf3 for basic TCP performance testing and dpdk-testpmd
for PPS testing.
iperf3 result:
TCP stream : 19.1 Gbps
dpdk-testpmd (single queue, single CPU core, 64 B packets) results:
Tx only : 3.4 Mpps
Rx only : 2.0 Mpps
L2 FWD Loopback : 1.5 Mpps
In skb mode the same setup shows much lower performance, similar to

Now that we have Eager Page Split support added for ARM in the kernel,
enable it in Qemu. This adds,
-eager-split-size to -accel sub-options to set the eager page split chunk size.
-enable KVM_CAP_ARM_EAGER_SPLIT_CHUNK_SIZE.
The chunk size specifies how many pages to break at a time, using a
single allocation. Bigger the chunk size, more pages need to be
allocated ahead of time.

HAX is deprecated since commits 73741fda6c ("MAINTAINERS: Abort
HAXM maintenance") and 90c167a1da ("docs/about/deprecated: Mark
HAXM in QEMU as deprecated"), released in v8.0.0.
Per the latest HAXM release (v7.8 [*]), the latest QEMU supported
is v7.2:
Note: Up to this release, HAXM supports QEMU from 2.9.0 to 7.2.0.
The next commit (https://github.com/intel/haxm/commit/da1b8ec072)
added:
HAXM v7.8.0 is our last release and we will not accept
pull requests or respond to issues after this.
It became very hard to build and test HAXM. Its previous
maintainers made it clear they won't help. It doesn't seem to be
a very good use of QEMU maintainers to spend their time in a dead
project. Save our time by removing this orphan zombie code.

We recently introduced "-run-with" for options that influence the
runtime behavior of QEMU. This option has the big advantage that it
can group related options (so that it is easier for the users to spot
them) and that the options become introspectable via QMP this way.
So let's start moving more switches into this option group, starting
with "-chroot" now.

When we for example have a sparse qcow2 image and discard: unmap is enabled,
there can be a lot of fragmentation in the image after some time. Especially on VM's
that do a lot of writes/deletes.
This causes the qcow2 image to grow even over 110% of its virtual size,
because the free gaps in the image get too small to allocate new
continuous clusters. So it allocates new space at the end of the image.
Disabling discard is not an option, as discard is needed to keep the
incremental backup size as low as possible. Without discard, the
incremental backups would become large, as qemu thinks it's just dirty
blocks but it doesn't know the blocks are unneeded.
So we need to avoid fragmentation but also 'empty' the unneeded blocks in
the image to have a small incremental backup.
In addition, we also want to send the discards further down the stack, so
the underlying blocks are still discarded.
Therefor we introduce a new qcow2 option "discard-no-unref".
When setting this option to true, discards will no longer have the qcow2
driver relinquish cluster allocations. Other than that, the request is
handled as normal: All clusters in range are marked as zero, and, if
pass-discard-request is true, it is passed further down the stack.
The only difference is that the now-zero clusters are preallocated
instead of being unallocated.
This will avoid fragmentation on the qcow2 image.

Add an option for hostmem-file to start the memory object at an offset

both an audio sink and source. This backend is available on most systems
Add Pipewire entry points for QEMU Pipewire audio backend
Add wrappers for QEMU Pipewire audio backend in qpw_pcm_ops()
qpw_write function returns the current state of the stream to pwaudio
and Writes some data to the server for playback streams using pipewire
spa_ringbuffer implementation.
qpw_read function returns the current state of the stream to pwaudio and
reads some data from the server for capture streams using pipewire
spa_ringbuffer implementation. These functions qpw_write and qpw_read
are called during playback and capture.
Added some functions that convert pw audio formats to QEMU audio format
and vice versa which would be needed in the pipewire audio sink and
source functions qpw_init_in() & qpw_init_out().
These methods that implement playback and recording will create streams
for playback and capture that will start processing and will result in
the on_process callbacks to be called.
Built a connection to the Pipewire sound system server in the
qpw_audio_init() method.

This commit adds 'one-insn-per-tb' as a property on the TCG
accelerator object, so you can enable it with
-accel tcg,one-insn-per-tb=on
It has the same behaviour as the existing '-singlestep' command line
option. We use a different name because 'singlestep' has always been
a confusing choice, because it doesn't 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 (such as analysing debug logs).
The existing '-singlestep' commandline options are decoupled from the
global 'singlestep' variable and instead now are syntactic sugar for
setting the accel property. (These can then go away after a
deprecation period.)
The global variable remains for the moment as:
* what the TCG code looks at to change its behaviour
* what HMP and QMP use to query and set the behaviour
In the following commits we'll clean those up to not directly
look at the global variable.

Our 'file' chardev backend supports both "output from this chardev
is written to a file" and "input from this chardev should be read
from a file" (except on Windows). However, you can only set up
the input file if you're using the QMP interface -- there is no
command line syntax to do it.
Add command line syntax to allow specifying an input file
as well as an output file, using a new 'input-path' suboption.
The specific use case I have is that I'd like to be able to
feed fuzzer reproducer input into qtest without having to use
'-qtest stdio' and put the input onto stdin. Being able to
use a file chardev like this:
-chardev file,id=repro,path=/dev/null,input-path=repro.txt -qtest chardev:repro
means that stdio is free for use by gdb.

Currently we'll always generate a cluster node no matter user has
specified '-smp clusters=X' or not. Cluster is an optional level
and will participant the building of Linux scheduling domains and
only appears on a few platforms. It's unncessary to always build
it when it cannot reflect the real topology on platforms having no
cluster implementation and to avoid affecting the linux scheduling
domains in the VM. So only generate the cluster topology in ACPI
PPTT when the user has specified it explicitly in -smp.
Tested qemu-system-aarch64 with `-smp 8` and linux 6.1-rc1, without
this patch:
estuary:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology$ cat cluster_*
ff # cluster_cpus
0-7 # cluster_cpus_list
56 # cluster_id
with this patch:
estuary:/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/topology$ cat cluster_*
ff # cluster_cpus
0-7 # cluster_cpus_list
36 # cluster_id, with no cluster node kernel will make it to
physical package id

This reverts commit 59d1ce4439.
The "zpcii-disable" machine property is redundant with the "interpret"
zPCI device property. Remove it for clarification.
