For those monitors who have enabled IO thread, we'll offload the
responding procedure into IO thread. The main reason is that chardev is
not thread safe, and we need to do all the read/write IOs in the same
thread. For use_io_thr=true monitors, that thread is the IO thread.
We do this isolation in similar pattern as what we have done to the
request queue: we first create one response queue for each monitor, then
instead of replying directly in the main thread, we queue the responses
and kick the IO thread to do the rest of the job for us.
A funny thing after doing this is that, when the QMP clients send "quit"
to QEMU, it's possible that we close the IOThread even earlier than
replying to that "quit". So another thing we need to do before cleaning
up the monitors is that we need to flush the response queue (we don't
need to do that for command queue; after all we are quitting) to make
sure replies for handled commands are always flushed back to clients.

Having "allow-oob":true for a command does not mean that this command
will always be run in out-of-band mode. The out-of-band quick path will
only be executed if we specify the extra "run-oob" flag when sending the
QMP request:
{ "execute": "command-that-allows-oob",
"arguments": { ... },
"control": { "run-oob": true } }
The "control" key is introduced to store this extra flag. "control"
field is used to store arguments that are shared by all the commands,
rather than command specific arguments. Let "run-oob" be the first.
Note that in the patch I exported qmp_dispatch_check_obj() to be used to
check the request earlier, and at the same time allowed "id" field to be
there since actually we always allow that.

Here "oob" stands for "Out-Of-Band". When "allow-oob" is set, it means
the command allows out-of-band execution.
The "oob" idea is proposed by Markus Armbruster in following thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-09/msg02057.html
This new "allow-oob" boolean will be exposed by "query-qmp-schema" as
well for command entries, so that QMP clients can know which commands
can be used in out-of-band calls. For example the command "migrate"
originally looks like:
{"name": "migrate", "ret-type": "17", "meta-type": "command",
"arg-type": "86"}
And it'll be changed into:
{"name": "migrate", "ret-type": "17", "allow-oob": false,
"meta-type": "command", "arg-type": "86"}
This patch only provides the QMP interface level changes. It does not
contain the real out-of-band execution implementation yet.

This patch does this:

So the parsing job and the dispatching job is isolated now. It gives us

The isolation is done using one QEMUBH. Only one dispatcher QEMUBH is

There were no QMP capabilities defined. Define the first capability,
"oob", to allow out-of-band messages.
After this patch, we will allow QMP clients to enable QMP capabilities
when sending the first "qmp_capabilities" command. Originally we are
starting QMP session with no arguments like:
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
Now we can enable some QMP capabilities using (take OOB as example,
which is the only capability that we support):
{ "execute": "qmp_capabilities",
"arguments": { "enable": [ "oob" ] } }
When the "arguments" key is not provided, no capability is enabled.
For capability "oob", the monitor needs to be run on a dedicated IO
thread, otherwise the command will fail. For example, trying to enable
OOB on a MUXed typed QMP monitor will fail.
One thing to mention is that QMP capabilities are per-monitor, and also
when the connection is closed due to some reason, the capabilities will
be reset.
Also, touch up qmp-test.c to test the new bits.

For each Monitor, add one field "use_io_thr" to show whether it will be
using the dedicated monitor IO thread to handle input/output. When set,
monitor IO parsing work will be offloaded to the dedicated monitor IO
thread, rather than the original main loop thread.
This only works for QMP. HMP will always be run on the main loop
thread.
Currently we're still keeping use_io_thr off always. Will turn it on
later at some point.
One thing to mention is that we cannot set use_io_thr for every QMP
monitor. The problem is that MUXed typed chardevs may not work well
with it now. When MUX is used, frontend of chardev can be the monitor
plus something else. The only thing we know would be safe to be run
outside main thread so far is the monitor frontend. All the rest of the
frontends should still be run in main thread only.

This does not make much sense as a single patch. However, this will be

This is a dynamic casting macro that, given a QObject type, returns an
object as that type or NULL if the object is of a different type (or

The macro uses lower-case letters because:
1. There does not seem to be a hard rule on whether qemu macros have to
be upper-cased,
2. The current situation in qapi/qmp is inconsistent (compare e.g.
QINCREF() vs. qdict_put()),
3. qobject_to() will evaluate its @obj parameter only once, thus it is
generally not important to the caller whether it is a macro or not,
4. I prefer it aesthetically.
The macro parameter order is chosen with typename first for
consistency with other QAPI macros like QAPI_CLONE(), as well as
for legibility (read it as "qobject to" type "applied to" obj).

CentOS 6 lacks a realpath binary on the base install, which makes
all iotests runs fail since the 2.11 release:

./check: line 815: realpath: command not found
diff: missing operand after `/home/dummy/qemu/tests/qemu-iotests/001.out'
diff: Try `diff --help' for more information.
Many of the uses of 'realpath' in the check script were being
used on the output of 'type -p' - but that is already an
absolute file name. While a canonical name can often be
shorter (realpath gets rid of /../), it can also be longer (due
to symlink expansion); and we really don't care if the name is
canonical, merely that it was an executable file with an
absolute path. These were broken in commit cceaf1db.
The remaining use of realpath was to convert a possibly relative
filename into an absolute one before calling diff to make it
easier to copy-and-paste the filename for moving the .bad file
into place as the new reference file even when running iotests
out-of-tree (see commit 93e53fb6), but $PWD can achieve the same
purpose.

When doing drive mirror to a low speed shared storage, if there was heavy
BLK IO write workload in VM after the 'ready' event, drive mirror block job
can't be canceled immediately, it would keep running until the heavy BLK IO
workload stopped in the VM.
Libvirt depends on the current block-job-cancel semantics, which is that
when used without a flag after the 'ready' event, the command blocks
until data is in sync. However, these semantics are awkward in other
situations, for example, people may use drive mirror for realtime
backups while still wanting to use block live migration. Libvirt cannot
start a block live migration while another drive mirror is in progress,
but the user would rather abandon the backup attempt as broken and
proceed with the live migration than be stuck waiting for the current
drive mirror backup to finish.
The drive-mirror command already includes a 'force' flag, which libvirt
does not use, although it documented the flag as only being useful to
quit a job which is paused. However, since quitting a paused job has
the same effect as abandoning a backup in a non-paused job (namely, the
destination file is not in sync, and the command completes immediately),
we can just improve the documentation to make the force flag obviously
useful.

Perform the rounding to match a CHS geometry only in the legacy code
path in .bdrv_co_create_opts. QMP now requires that the user already
passes a CHS aligned image size, unless force-size=true is given.
CHS alignment is required to make the image compatible with Virtual PC,
but not for use with newer Microsoft hypervisors.

like the other recently converted block drivers.

Originally we added parallels as a read-only format to qemu-iotests
where we did just some tests with a binary image. Since then, write and
image creation support has been added to the driver, so we can now
enable it in _supported_fmt generic.
The driver doesn't support migration yet, though, so we need to add it
to the list of exceptions in 181.
