eb8f77761e target-sh4: switch sh4 to softfloat
We need to be able to catch exceptions correctly and thus enable softfloat
on SH4.

As all machines except i386 and x86_64 are using softfloat, make it the
default and change the case to detect i386 and x86_64. Note that CRIS
doesn't have an FPU, so it can be configured with both softfloat-native
and softfloat.

eae30c8f40 configure: fix broken test
Since commit d1807a4f83 ./configure tries
to test files and directories with "test -f", which only test for regular
files. Test with "test -e", which looks for any kind of files.

This unbreak the configure script when not using a separate object
directory.

Non-existent -I paths are dropped silently by the compiler, but still
it is not polite to pass bogus options.  Configure-time tests do not

b3d08c029d Add a DTrace tracing backend targetted for SystemTAP compatability
This introduces a new tracing backend that targets the SystemTAP
implementation of DTrace userspace tracing. The core functionality
should be applicable and standard across any DTrace implementation
on Solaris, OS-X, *BSD, but the Makefile rules will likely need
some small additional changes to cope with OS specific build
requirements.

This backend builds a little differently from the other tracing
backends. Specifically there is no 'trace.c' file, because the
'dtrace' command line tool generates a '.o' file directly from
the dtrace probe definition file. The probe definition is usually
named with a '.d' extension but QEMU uses '.d' files for its
external makefile dependancy tracking, so this uses '.dtrace' as
the extension for the probe definition file.

The 'tracetool' program gains the ability to generate a trace.h
file for DTrace, and also to generate the trace.d file containing
the dtrace probe definition.

Example usage of a dtrace probe in systemtap looks like:

  probe process("qemu").mark("qemu_malloc") {
    printf("Malloc %d %p\n", $arg1, $arg2);
  }

* .gitignore: Ignore trace-dtrace.*
* Makefile: Extra rules for generating DTrace files
* Makefile.obj: Don't build trace.o for DTrace, use
  trace-dtrace.o generated by 'dtrace' instead
* tracetool: Support for generating DTrace data files

d61a4ce8f0 Add Intel HD Audio support to qemu.
This patch adds three devices to qemu:

intel-hda
	Intel HD Audio Controller, the PCI device.  Provides a HDA bus.
	Emulates ICH6 at the moment.  Adding a ICH9 PCIE
	variant shouldn't be hard.

hda-duplex
	HDA Codec.  Attaches to the HDA bus.  Supports 16bit stereo,
	rates 16k -> 96k, playback, recording and volume control
	(with CONFIG_MIXEMU=y).

hda-output
	HDA Codec without recording support.  Subset of the hda-duplex
	codec.  Use this if you don't want your guests access your mic.

Usage: add '-device intel-hda -device hda-duplex' to your command line.

Tested guests:
 * Linux works.
 * Win7 works.
 * DOS (mpxplay) works.
 * WinXP doesn't work.

[ v2 changes ]
 * Fixed endianess, big endian hosts work now.
 * Fixed some emulation bugs.
 * Added immediate command emulation.
 * Added vmstate support.
 * Make it behave like all other sound card drivers:
   - can be configured via '--audio-card-list=hda'
   - can be added to a VM using '-soundhw hda'
 * Code style fixups.
 * Zapped guest-triggerable asserts.
 * Handle partial reads/writes of audio data correctly.

e78815a554 Introduce qemu_madvise()
vl.c has a Sun-specific hack to supply a prototype for madvise(),
but the call site has apparently moved to arch_init.c.

Haiku doesn't implement madvise() in favor of posix_madvise().
OpenBSD and Solaris 10 don't implement posix_madvise() but madvise().
MinGW implements neither.

Check for madvise() and posix_madvise() in configure and supply qemu_madvise()
as wrapper. Prefer madvise() over posix_madvise() due to flag availability.
Convert all callers to use qemu_madvise() and QEMU_MADV_*.

Note that on Solaris the warning is fixed by moving the madvise() prototype,
not by qemu_madvise() itself. It helps with porting though, and it simplifies
most call sites.

v7 -> v8:
* Some versions of MinGW have no sys/mman.h header. Reported by Blue Swirl.

v6 -> v7:
* Adopt madvise() rather than posix_madvise() semantics for returning errors.
* Use EINVAL in place of ENOTSUP.

v5 -> v6:
* Replace two leftover instances of POSIX_MADV_NORMAL with QEMU_MADV_INVALID.
  Spotted by Blue Swirl.

v4 -> v5:
* Introduce QEMU_MADV_INVALID, suggested by Alexander Graf.
  Note that this relies on -1 not being a valid advice value.

v3 -> v4:
* Eliminate #ifdefs at qemu_advise() call sites. Requested by Blue Swirl.
  This will currently break the check in kvm-all.c by calling madvise() with
  a supported flag, which will not fail. Ideas/patches welcome.

v2 -> v3:
* Reuse the *_MADV_* defines for QEMU_MADV_*. Suggested by Alexander Graf.
* Add configure check for madvise(), too.
  Add defines to Makefile, not QEMU_CFLAGS.
  Convert all callers, untested. Suggested by Blue Swirl.
* Keep Solaris' madvise() prototype around. Pointed out by Alexander Graf.
* Display configure check results.

v1 -> v2:
* Don't rely on posix_madvise() availability, add qemu_madvise().

a21493e009 Use a few more gcc warning flags
If the compiler supports the following warning flags, use them:

-Wformat-security -Wformat-y2k -Winit-self -Wignored-qualifiers
-Wmissing-include-dirs

Currently, these flags don't produce any warnings.

7e24e92a06 trace: Add LTTng Userspace Tracer backend
This patch adds LTTng Userspace Tracer (UST) backend support.  The UST
system requires no kernel support but libust and liburcu must be
installed.

$ ./configure --trace-backend ust
$ make

Start the UST daemon:
$ ustd &

List available tracepoints and enable some:
$ ustctl --list-markers $(pgrep qemu)
[...]
{PID: 5458, channel/marker: ust/paio_submit, state: 0, fmt: "acb %p
opaque %p sector_num %lu nb_sectors %lu type %lu" 0x4b32ba}
$ ustctl --enable-marker "ust/paio_submit" $(pgrep qemu)

Run the trace:
$ ustctl --create-trace $(pgrep qemu)
$ ustctl --start-trace $(pgrep qemu)
[...]
$ ustctl --stop-trace $(pgrep qemu)
$ ustctl --destroy-trace $(pgrep qemu)

Trace results can be viewed using lttv-gui.

When using the 'ust' backend, check if the relevant headers are
available at host.
