We've got a separate option to configure the accelerator nowadays, which
is shorter to type and the preferred way of specifying an accelerator.
Use it in the source and examples to show that it is the favored option.
(However, do not touch the places yet which also specify other machine
options or multiple accelerators - these are currently still better
handled with one single "-machine" statement instead)

This is a simple move of Python code that wraps common QEMU

By treating that code as a real Python module, we can more easily:

Several changes:
- We only allow generate header "inside" the tree. Why? Because we
need to connit the result, so it makes no sense to generate them on
the build dir.
- We only generate a single target each time. Getting all the
cross-compilers correctly is an impossible task. So know you do:
make -C tests/migration $target (native)
make CROSS_PREFIX=foo- -C tests/migratiion $target (cross)
And you are done.
- If we are building out of tree, we have no data about if we are
cross-compile or whatever. So instead of guess what is happening,
just do what I pointed on previous point.

Fixed up Makefile since the aarch patch sneaked in first
This patch adds migration test support for aarch64. The test code, which
implements the same functionality as x86, is booted as a kernel in qemu.
Here are the design choices we make for aarch64:
* We choose this -kernel approach because aarch64 QEMU doesn't provide a
built-in fw like x86 does. So instead of relying on a boot loader, we
use -kernel approach for aarch64.
* The serial output is sent to PL011 directly.
* The physical memory base for mach-virt machine is 0x40000000. We change
the start_address and end_address for aarch64.
In addition to providing the binary, this patch also includes the source
code and the build script in tests/migration/aarch64. So users can change
the source and/or re-compile the binary as they wish.

Recently a new configure option, CROSS_CC_GUEST, was added to
$(TARGET)-softmmu/config-target.mak to support TCG-related tests. This
patch tries to leverage this option to support cross compilation when the
migration boot block file is being re-generated:
* The x86 related files are moved to a new sub-dir (named ./i386).
* A new top-layer Makefile is created in tests/migration/ directory.
This Makefile searches and parses CROSS_CC_GUEST to generate CROSS_PREFIX.
The CROSS_PREFIX, if available, is then passed to migration/$ARCH/Makefile.

The x86 boot block header currently is generated with a shell script.
To better support other CPUs (e.g. aarch64), we convert the script
into Makefile. This allows us to 1) support cross-compilation easily,
and 2) avoid creating a script file for every architecture.
Note that, in the new design, the cross compiler prefix can be specified by
setting the CROSS_PREFIX in "make" command. Also to allow gcc pre-processor
to include the C-style file correctly, it also renames the
x86-a-b-bootblock.s file extension from .s to .S.

This introduces a moderately general purpose framework for
testing performance of migration.
The initial guest workload is provided by the included 'stress'
program, which is configured to spawn one thread per guest CPU
and run a maximally memory intensive workload. It will loop
over GB of memory, xor'ing each byte with data from a 4k array
of random bytes. This ensures heavy read and write load across
all of guest memory to stress the migration performance. While
running the 'stress' program will record how long it takes to
xor each GB of memory and print this data for later reporting.
The test engine will spawn a pair of QEMU processes, either on
the same host, or with the target on a remote host via ssh,
using the host kernel and a custom initrd built with 'stress'
as the /init binary. Kernel command line args are set to ensure
a fast kernel boot time (< 1 second) between launching QEMU and
the stress program starting execution.
None the less, the test engine will initially wait N seconds for
the guest workload to stablize, before starting the migration
operation. When migration is running, the engine will use pause,
post-copy, autoconverge, xbzrle compression and multithread
compression features, as well as downtime & bandwidth tuning
to encourage completion. If migration completes, the test engine
will wait N seconds again for the guest workooad to stablize on
the target host. If migration does not complete after a preset
number of iterations, it will be aborted.
While the QEMU process is running on the source host, the test
engine will sample the host CPU usage of QEMU as a whole, and
each vCPU thread. While migration is running, it will record
all the stats reported by 'query-migration'. Finally, it will
capture the output of the stress program running in the guest.
All the data produced from a single test execution is recorded
in a structured JSON file. A separate program is then able to
create interactive charts using the "plotly" python + javascript
libraries, showing the characteristics of the migration.
The data output provides visualization of the effect on guest
vCPU workloads from the migration process, the corresponding
vCPU utilization on the host, and the overall CPU hit from
QEMU on the host. This is correlated from statistics from the
migration process, such as downtime, vCPU throttling and iteration
number.
While the tests can be run individually with arbitrary parameters,
there is also a facility for producing batch reports for a number
of pre-defined scenarios / comparisons, in order to be able to
get standardized results across different hardware configurations
(eg TCP vs RDMA, or comparing different VCPU counts / memory
sizes, etc).
To use this, first you must build the initrd image
$ make tests/migration/initrd-stress.img
To run a a one-shot test with all default parameters
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf.py > result.json
This has many command line args for varying its behaviour.
For example, to increase the RAM size and CPU count and
bind it to specific host NUMA nodes
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf.py \
--mem 4 --cpus 2 \
--src-mem-bind 0 --src-cpu-bind 0,1 \
--dst-mem-bind 1 --dst-cpu-bind 2,3 \
> result.json
Using mem + cpu binding is strongly recommended on NUMA
machines, otherwise the guest performance results will
vary wildly between runs of the test due to lucky/unlucky
NUMA placement, making sensible data analysis impossible.
To make it run across separate hosts:
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf.py \
--dst-host somehostname > result.json
To request that post-copy is enabled, with switchover
after 5 iterations
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf.py \
--post-copy --post-copy-iters 5 > result.json
Once a result.json file is created, a graph of the data
can be generated, showing guest workload performance per
thread and the migration iteration points:
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf-plot.py --output result.html \
--migration-iters --split-guest-cpu result.json
To further include host vCPU utilization and overall QEMU
utilization
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf-plot.py --output result.html \
--migration-iters --split-guest-cpu \
--qemu-cpu --vcpu-cpu result.json
NB, the 'guestperf-plot.py' command requires that you have
the plotly python library installed. eg you must do
$ pip install --user plotly
Viewing the result.html file requires that you have the
plotly.min.js file in the same directory as the HTML
output. This js file is installed as part of the plotly
python library, so can be found in
$HOME/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages/plotly/offline/plotly.min.js
The guestperf-plot.py program can accept multiple json files
to plot, enabling results from different configurations to
be compared.
Finally, to run the entire standardized set of comparisons
$ ./tests/migration/guestperf-batch.py \
--dst-host somehost \
--mem 4 --cpus 2 \
--src-mem-bind 0 --src-cpu-bind 0,1 \
--dst-mem-bind 1 --dst-cpu-bind 2,3
--output tcp-somehost-4gb-2cpu
will store JSON files from all scenarios in the directory
named tcp-somehost-4gb-2cpu
