Kashyap Chamarthy cd6b1674d6 docs: Fix botched rST conversion of 'submitting-a-patch.rst'
I completely botched up the merged[0] rST conversion of this document by
accidentally dropping entire hunks (!) of text. :-(  I made it very hard
for reviewers to spot it, as the omitted text was buried deep in the
document.  To fix my hatchet job, I reconverted the "SubmitAPatch"
wiki[1] page from scratch and replaced the existing rST with it, while
making sure I incorporated previous feedback.

In summary, in this reconverted edition:

- I did a careful (to the extent my eyes allowed) para-by-para
  comparison of the wiki and the rST to make sure I didn't omit
  anything accidentally.

- I made sure to work in the cosmetic feedback[2] that Thomas Huth
  pointed out in the merged (and botched) edition:

   - fix the hyperlinks in "Split up long patches"

   - replace ".". with "does not end with a dot" (in "Write a meaningful
     commit message" section)

   - replace "---" with ``---`` so that it doesn't render as an em-dash
     (there were two other occurrences; I fixed those too)

- Use "QEMU" spelling consistently in prose usage

- Add a consistent "refer to git-config" link where appropriate

Thanks to Thomas Huth and Alex Bennée for noticing it on IRC.  And sorry
for my sloppiness.

Thomas Huth 6b717a8d44 hw/misc/sifive_u_otp: Use IF_PFLASH for the OTP device instead of IF_NONE
Configuring a drive with "if=none" is meant for creation of a backend
only, it should not get automatically assigned to a device frontend.
Use "if=pflash" for the One-Time-Programmable device instead (like
it is e.g. also done for the efuse device in hw/arm/xlnx-zcu102.c).

Since the old way of configuring the device has already been published
with the previous QEMU versions, we cannot remove this immediately, but
have to deprecate it and support it for at least two more releases.

Kashyap Chamarthy 9f73de8df0 docs: rSTify the "SubmitAPatch" wiki
- The original wiki is here[1]. I copied the wiki source[2] into a .wiki
  file, and used `pandoc` to convert it to rST:

    $> pandoc -f Mediawiki -t rst submitting-a-patch.wiki -o
       submitting-a-patch.rst

- The only minor touch-ups I did was to fix URLs.  But 99%, it is a 1-1
  conversion.

  (An example of a "touch-up": under the section "Patch emails must
  include a Signed-off-by: line", I updated the "see SubmittingPatches
  1.12"  to "1.12) Sign your work")

- I have also converted a couple other related wiki pages (included in
  this patch series) that were hyperlinked within the SubmitAPatch page,
  or a page that it refers to:

  - SubmitAPullRequest: https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/SubmitAPullRequest
  - TrivialPatches: https://wiki.qemu.org/Contribute/TrivialPatches

- Over time, many people contributed to this wiki page; you can find all
  the authors in the wiki history[3].

Cleber Rosa d7c2e2b3f4 Jobs based on custom runners: add CentOS Stream 8
This introduces three different parts of a job designed to run
on a custom runner managed by Red Hat.  The goals include:

  a) propose a model for other organizations that want to onboard
     their own runners, with their specific platforms, build
     configuration and tests.

  b) bring awareness to the differences between upstream QEMU and the
     version available under CentOS Stream, which is "A preview of
     upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor and major releases".

  c) because of b), it should be easier to identify and reduce the gap
     between Red Hat's downstream and upstream QEMU.

The components of this custom job are:

  I) OS build environment setup code:

     - additions to the existing "build-environment.yml" playbook
       that can be used to set up CentOS/EL 8 systems.

     - a CentOS Stream 8 specific "build-environment.yml" playbook
       that adds to the generic one.

 II) QEMU build configuration: a script that will produce binaries with
     features as similar as possible to the ones built and packaged on
     CentOS stream 8.

III) Scripts that define the minimum amount of testing that the
     binaries built with the given configuration (point II) under the
     given OS build environment (point I) should be subjected to.

 IV) Job definition: GitLab CI jobs that will dispatch the build/test
     jobs (see points #II and #III) to the machine specifically
     configured according to #I.

Kevin Wolf 4d8b0f0a95 docs: Deprecate incorrectly typed device_add arguments
While introducing a non-QemuOpts code path for device creation for JSON
-device, we noticed that QMP device_add doesn't check its input
correctly (accepting arguments that should have been rejected), and that
users may be relying on this behaviour (libvirt did until it was fixed
recently).

Let's use a deprecation period before we fix this bug in QEMU to avoid
nasty surprises for users.

Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 1084159b31 qapi: deprecate drive-backup
Modern way is using blockdev-add + blockdev-backup, which provides a
lot more control on how target is opened.

As example of drive-backup problems consider the following:

User of drive-backup expects that target will be opened in the same
cache and aio mode as source. Corresponding logic is in
drive_backup_prepare(), where we take bs->open_flags of source.

It works rather bad if source was added by blockdev-add. Assume source
is qcow2 image. On blockdev-add we should specify aio and cache options
for file child of qcow2 node. What happens next:

drive_backup_prepare() looks at bs->open_flags of qcow2 source node.
But there no BDRV_O_NOCAHE neither BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO: BDRV_O_NOCAHE is
places in bs->file->bs->open_flags, and BDRV_O_NATIVE_AIO is nowhere,
as file-posix parse options and simply set s->use_linux_aio.

The documentation is updated in a minimal way, so that drive-backup is
noted only as a deprecated command, and blockdev-backup used in most of
places.

To run user-mode emulation tests, we introduced the
avocado_qemu.QemuUserTest which inherits from avocado_qemu.QemuBaseTest.
System-mode emulation tests are based on the avocado_qemu.Test class,
which also inherits avocado_qemu.QemuBaseTest. To avoid confusion,
rename it as avocado_qemu.QemuSystemTest.

Willian Rampazzo bbbd9b6ec6 tests/acceptance: rename tests acceptance to tests avocado
In the discussion about renaming the `tests/acceptance` [1], the
conclusion was that the folders inside `tests` are related to the
framework running the tests and not directly related to the type of
the tests.

This changes the folder to `tests/avocado` and adjusts the MAKEFILE, the
CI related files and the documentation.

John Snow 450e0f28a4 docs: remove non-reference uses of single backticks
The single backtick markup in ReST is the "default role". Currently,
Sphinx's default role is called "content". Sphinx suggests you can use
the "Any" role instead to turn any single-backtick enclosed item into a
cross-reference.

This is useful for things like autodoc for Python docstrings, where it's
often nicer to reference other types with `foo` instead of the more
laborious :py:meth:`foo`. It's also useful in multi-domain cases to
easily reference definitions from other Sphinx domains, such as
referencing C code definitions from outside of kerneldoc comments.

Before we do that, though, we'll need to turn all existing usages of the
"content" role to inline verbatim markup wherever it does not correctly
resolve into a cross-refernece by using double backticks instead.

Daniel P. Berrangé 7c8d295b27 hw/misc: deprecate the 'sga' device
This is obsolete since SeaBIOS 1.11.0 introduced native support for
sending messages to the serial console. The new support can be
activated using -machine graphics=off on x86 targets.

Daniel P. Berrangé 3d312f417d docs/devel: document expectations for HMP commands in the future
We no longer wish to have commands implemented in HMP only. All commands
should start with a QMP implementation and the HMP merely be a shim
around this. To reduce the burden of implementing QMP commands where
there is low expectation of machine usage, requirements for QAPI
modelling are relaxed provided the command is under the "x-" name
prefix.

Daniel P. Berrangé a45cfcbb01 docs/devel: add example of command returning unstructured text
This illustrates how to add a QMP command returning unstructured text,
following the guidelines added in the previous patch. The example uses
a simplified version of 'info roms'.

Daniel P. Berrangé f2de406f29 docs/devel: document expectations for QAPI data modelling for QMP
Traditionally we have required that newly added QMP commands will model
any returned data using fine grained QAPI types. This is good for
commands that are intended to be consumed by machines, where clear data
representation is very important. Commands that don't satisfy this have
generally been added to HMP only.

In effect the decision of whether to add a new command to QMP vs HMP has
been used as a proxy for the decision of whether the cost of designing a
fine grained QAPI type is justified by the potential benefits.

As a result the commands present in QMP and HMP are non-overlapping
sets, although HMP comamnds can be accessed indirectly via the QMP
command 'human-monitor-command'.

One of the downsides of 'human-monitor-command' is that the QEMU monitor
APIs remain tied into various internal parts of the QEMU code. For
example any exclusively HMP command will need to use 'monitor_printf'
to get data out. It would be desirable to be able to fully isolate the
monitor implementation from QEMU internals, however, this is only
possible if all commands are exclusively based on QAPI with direct
QMP exposure.

The way to achieve this desired end goal is to finese the requirements
for QMP command design. For cases where the output of a command is only
intended for human consumption, it is reasonable to want to simplify
the implementation by returning a plain string containing formatted
data instead of designing a fine grained QAPI data type. This can be
permitted if-and-only-if the command is exposed under the 'x-' name
prefix. This indicates that the command data format is liable to
future change and that it is not following QAPI design best practice.

The poster child example for this would be the 'info registers' HMP
command which returns printf formatted data representing CPU state.
This information varies enourmously across target architectures and
changes relatively frequently as new CPU features are implemented.
It is there as debugging data for human operators, and any machine
usage would treat it as an opaque blob. It is thus reasonable to
expose this in QMP as 'x-query-registers' returning a 'str' field.

Daniel P. Berrangé 6fa6b54f5b docs/devel: update error handling guidance for HMP commands
Best practice is to use the 'hmp_handle_error' function, not
'monitor_printf' or 'error_report_err'. This ensures that the
message always gets an 'Error: ' prefix, distinguishing it
from normal command output.
