ade80dc845 virtio-pci: fill in notifier support
Support host/guest notifiers in virtio-pci.
The last one only with kvm, that's okay
because vhost relies on kvm anyway.

Note on kvm usage: kvm ioeventfd API
is implemented on non-kvm systems as well,
this is the reason we don't need if (kvm_enabled())
around it.

c81131db15 Don't check for bus master for old guests
Older Linux guests don't activate the bus master enable bit. So for those we
can just try to be clever and track if they set the DEVICE_OK bit even though
bus mastering is still disabled.

Under that condition we can disable the windows safety check. With that logic
in place both guests should work just fine. Without PCI hotplug breaks
virtio-net in Linux < 2.6.34 guests.

1ecda02b24 error: Replace qemu_error() by error_report()
error_report() terminates the message with a newline.  Strip it it
from its arguments.

This fixes a few error messages lacking a newline:
net_handle_fd_param()'s "No file descriptor named %s found", and
tap_open()'s "vnet_hdr=1 requested, but no kernel support for
IFF_VNET_HDR available" (all three versions).

There's one place that passes arguments without newlines
intentionally: load_vmstate().  Fix it up.

428c149b0b block: add topology qdev properties
Add three new qdev properties to export block topology information to
the guest.  This is needed to get optimal I/O alignment for RAID arrays
or SSDs.

The options are:

 - physical_block_size to specify the physical block size of the device,
   this is going to increase from 512 bytes to 4096 kilobytes for many
   modern storage devices
 - min_io_size to specify the minimal I/O size without performance impact,
   this is typically set to the RAID chunk size for arrays.
 - opt_io_size to specify the optimal sustained I/O size, this is
   typically the RAID stripe width for arrays.

I decided to not auto-probe these values from blkid which might easily
be possible as I don't know how to deal with these issues on migration.

Note that we specificly only set the physical_block_size, and not the
logial one which is the unit all I/O is described in.  The reason for
that is that IDE does not support increasing the logical block size and
at last for now I want to stick to one meachnisms in queue and allow
for easy switching of transports for a given backing image which would
not be possible if scsi and virtio use real 4k sectors, while ide only
uses the physical block exponent.

To make this more common for the different block drivers introduce a
new BlockConf structure holding all common block properties and a
DEFINE_BLOCK_PROPERTIES macro to add them all together, mirroring
what is done for network drivers.  Also switch over all block drivers
to use it, except for the floppy driver which has weird driveA/driveB
properties and probably won't require any advanced block options ever.

Example usage for a virtio device with 4k physical block size and
8k optimal I/O size:

  -drive file=scratch.img,media=disk,cache=none,id=scratch \
  -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=scratch,physical_block_size=4096,opt_io_size=8192

98b19252cf virtio-console: qdev conversion, new virtio-serial-bus
This commit converts the virtio-console device to create a new
virtio-serial bus that can host console and generic serial ports. The
file hosting this code is now called virtio-serial-bus.c.

The virtio console is now a very simple qdev device that sits on the
virtio-serial-bus and communicates between the bus and qemu's chardevs.

This commit also includes a few changes to the virtio backing code for
pci and s390 to spawn the virtio-serial bus.

As a result of the qdev conversion, we get rid of a lot of legacy code.
The old-style way of instantiating a virtio console using

    -virtioconsole ...

is maintained, but the new, preferred way is to use

    -device virtio-serial -device virtconsole,chardev=...

With this commit, multiple devices as well as multiple ports with a
single device can be supported.

For multiple ports support, each port gets an IO vq pair. Since the
guest needs to know in advance how many vqs a particular device will
need, we have to set this number as a property of the virtio-serial
device and also as a config option.

In addition, we also spawn a pair of control IO vqs. This is an internal
channel meant for guest-host communication for things like port
open/close, sending port properties over to the guest, etc.

This commit is a part of a series of other commits to get the full
implementation of multiport support. Future commits will add other
support as well as ride on the savevm version that we bump up here.

Since patch ed757e140c0ada220f213036e4497315d24ca8bct, virtio will
sometimes clear all status registers on bus master disable, which loses
information such as VIRTIO_CONFIG_S_FAILED bit.  This is a result of
a patch being misapplied: code uses !  instead of ~ for bit
operations as in Yan's original patch.  This obviously does not make

c2039bd0ff Support PCI based option rom loading
Currently, we preload option roms into the option rom space in memory.  This
prevents DDIM from functioning correctly which severely limits the number
of roms we can support.

This patch introduces a pci_add_option_rom() which registers the
PCI_ROM_ADDRESS bar which points to our option rom.  It also converts over
the cirrus vga adapter, the rtl8139, virtio, and the e1000 to use this
new mechanism.

The result is that PXE boot functions even with three unique types of cards.

  * drive_uninit() calls are moved over to the ->exit()

81a322d4a1 qdev: add return value to init() callbacks.
Sorry folks, but it has to be.  One more of these invasive qdev patches.

We have a serious design bug in the qdev interface:  device init
callbacks can't signal failure because the init() callback has no
return value.  This patch fixes it.

We have already one case in-tree where this is needed:
Try -device virtio-blk-pci (without drive= specified) and watch qemu
segfault.  This patch fixes it.

With usb+scsi being converted to qdev we'll get more devices where the
init callback can fail for various reasons.

d176c495b6 qdev-ify virtio-blk.
First user of the new drive property.  With this patch applied host
and guest config can be specified separately, like this:

  -drive if=none,id=disk1,file=/path/to/disk.img
  -device virtio-blk-pci,drive=disk1

You can set any property for virtio-blk-pci now.  You can set the pci
address via addr=.  You can switch the device into 0.10 compat mode
using class=0x0180.  As this is per device you can have one 0.10 and one
0.11 virtio block device in a single virtual machine.

Old syntax continues to work.  Internally it does the same as the two
lines above though.  One side effect this has is a different
initialization order, which might result in a different pci address
being assigned by default.

Long term plan here is to have this working for all block devices, i.e.
once all scsi is properly qdev-ified you will be able to do something
like this:

  -drive if=none,id=sda,file=/path/to/disk.img
  -device lsi,id=lsi,addr=<pciaddr>
  -device scsi-disk,drive=sda,bus=lsi.0,lun=<n>

21d58b575e Change default PCI class of virtio-console to PCI_CLASS_SERIAL_OTHER
We're using PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_OTHER now, but qemu-kvm.git is using
PCI_CLASS_OTHERS because:

  "As a PCI_CLASS_DISPLAY_OTHER, it reduces primary display somehow on
   Windows XP (possibly Windows disables acceleration since it fails
   to find a driver)."

While this is valid, many versions of X will get confused by it.
Class major number of 0 gets treated as a possibly prehistoric VGA
device, and then the autoconfig logic gets confused trying to figure
out whether the virtio console or the pv vga device are the real VGA.

We should really set a proper class ID. 0x0780 (serial / other) seems
most appropriate. This shouldn't require any kernel changes, the
modalias for virtio looks like:

  alias:          pci:v00001AF4d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i*

so won't care what the base class or subclass are.

It shows up in the guest as:

Makes pci_qdev_register take a PCIDeviceInfo struct instead of a bunch
of parameters.  Also adds config_read and config_write callbacks to
PCIDeviceInfo, so drivers needing these can be converted to the qdev
device API too.

a08d43677f Revert "Introduce reset notifier order"
This reverts commit 8217606e6e (and
updates later added users of qemu_register_reset), we solved the
problem it originally addressed less invasively.

7055e687cd qemu/virtio: virtio support for many interrupt vectors
Extend virtio to support many interrupt vectors, and rearrange code in
preparation for multi-vector support (mostly move reset out to bindings,
because we will have to reset the vectors in transport-specific code).
Actual bindings in pci, and use in net, to follow.
Load and save are not connected to bindings yet, so they are left
stubbed out for now.

efeea6d048 virtio: add support for indirect ring entries
Support a new feature flag for indirect ring entries. These are ring
entries which point to a table of buffer descriptors.

The idea here is to increase the ring capacity by allowing a larger
effective ring size whereby the ring size dictates the number of
requests that may be outstanding, rather than the size of those
requests.

This should be most effective in the case of block I/O where we can
potentially benefit by concurrently dispatching a large number of
large requests. Even in the simple case of single segment block
requests, this results in a threefold increase in ring capacity.
