This grand cleanup drops all reset and vmsave/load related
synchronization points in favor of four(!) generic hooks:
- cpu_synchronize_all_states in qemu_savevm_state_complete
(initial sync from kernel before vmsave)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in qemu_loadvm_state
(writeback after vmload)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in main after machine init
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset in qemu_system_reset
(writeback after system reset)
These writeback points + the existing one of VCPU exec after
cpu_synchronize_state map on three levels of writeback:
- KVM_PUT_RUNTIME_STATE (during runtime, other VCPUs continue to run)
- KVM_PUT_RESET_STATE (on synchronous system reset, all VCPUs stopped)
- KVM_PUT_FULL_STATE (on init or vmload, all VCPUs stopped as well)
This level is passed to the arch-specific VCPU state writing function
that will decide which concrete substates need to be written. That way,
no writer of load, save or reset functions that interact with in-kernel
KVM states will ever have to worry about synchronization again. That
also means that a lot of reasons for races, segfaults and deadlocks are
eliminated.
cpu_synchronize_state remains untouched, just as Anthony suggested. We
continue to need it before reading or writing of VCPU states that are
also tracked by in-kernel KVM subsystems.
Consequently, this patch removes many cpu_synchronize_state calls that
are now redundant, just like remaining explicit register syncs.

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.

This commit adds QError support in the Monitor.
A QError member is added to the Monitor struct. This new member
stores error information and is also used to check if an error
has occurred when the called handler returns.
Additionally, a new macro called qemu_error_new() is introduced.
It builds on top of the QemuErrorSink API and should be used in
place of qemu_error().
When all conversion to qemu_error_new() is done, qemu_error() can
be turned private.
Basically, Monitor's error flow is something like this:
1. An error occurs in the handler, it calls qemu_error_new()
2. qemu_error_new() builds a new QError object and stores it in
the Monitor struct
3. The handler returns
4. Top level Monitor code checks the Monitor struct and calls
qerror_print() to print the error

This patch introduces block migration called during live migration. Block
are being copied to the destination in an async way. First the code will
transfer the whole disk and then transfer all dirty blocks accumulted during
the migration.
Still need to improve transition from the iterative phase of migration to the
end phase. For now transition will take place when all blocks transfered once,
all the dirty blocks will be transfered during the end phase (guest is
suspended).
Changes from v4:
- Global variabels moved to a global state structure allocated dynamically.
- Minor coding style issues.
- Poll block.c for tracking of dirty blocks instead of manage it here.

Switch RTC emulations to the new host_clock instead of vm_clock by
default. This has the advantage that the emulated RTC will follow
automatically the host time while it might be tuned via NTP. vm_clock
can still be selected by passing '-rtc clock=vm' on the command line.
Note that some RTC emulations (at least M48T59) already use the host
time unconditionally while others (namely MC146818) do not. This patch
introduces the required infrastructure for selecting the base clock but
only converts MC146818 for now.

This patch adds some functions for error reporting to address the
problem that error messages should be routed to different destinations
depending on the context of the caller, i.e. monitor command errors
should go to the monitor, command line errors to stderr.
qemu_error() is a printf-like function to report errors.
qemu_errors_to_file() and qemu_errors_to_mon() switch the destination
for the error message to the specified file or monitor. When setting a
new destination the old one will be kept. One can switch back using
qemu_errors_to_previous(). i.e. it works like a stack.
main() calls qemu_errors_to_file(stderr), so errors go to stderr by
default. monitor callbacks are wrapped into qemu_errors_to_mon() +
qemu_errors_to_previous(), so any errors triggered by monitor commands
will go to the monitor.
Each thread has its own error message destination. qemu-kvm probably
should add a qemu_errors_to_file(stderr) call to the i/o-thread
initialization code.

kqemu introduces a number of restrictions on the i386 target. The worst is that
it prevents large memory from working in the default build.
Furthermore, kqemu is fundamentally flawed in a number of ways. It relies on
the TSC as a time source which will not be reliable on a multiple processor
system in userspace. Since most modern processors are multicore, this severely
limits the utility of kqemu.
kvm is a viable alternative for people looking to accelerate qemu and has the
benefit of being supported by the upstream Linux kernel. If someone can
implement work arounds to remove the restrictions introduced by kqemu, I'm
happy to avoid and/or revert this patch.
N.B. kqemu will still function in the 0.11 series but this patch removes it from
the 0.12 series.

Hi,
After discussing the issue with Avi, Gleb and a couple others on irq,
we came to the conclusion that it is preferred to have QEMU request
features from the BIOS, rather than notifying the BIOS that it is
running on QEMU or KVM. This way memory ranges can change etc. and
an older BIOS will continue to work on newer QEMU if it receives the
info as a fw_cfg value.
This one also matches what qemu-kvm does for irq0override, except I
haven't made it configurable. I leave that as an exercise for whoever
would be interested in switching off irq0override.
Thanks,
Jes
Set irq0 override in fw_cfg, informing the BIOS that QEMU expects
override on irq0. This matches qemu-kvm, and will help sharing a
single BIOS binary.
