Peter Maydell 6fe6d6c9a9 docs: Be consistent about capitalization of 'Arm'
The company 'Arm' went through a rebranding some years back
involving a recapitalization from 'ARM' to 'Arm'. As a result
our documentation is a bit inconsistent between the two forms.
It's not worth trying to update everywhere in QEMU, but it's
easy enough to make docs/ consistent.

Note that "ARMv8" and similar architecture names, and
older CPU names like "ARM926" still retain all-caps.

Pavel Dovgalyuk 878ec29b9c replay: record and replay random number sources
Record/replay feature of icount allows deterministic running of execution
scenarios. Some CPUs and peripheral devices read random numbers from
external sources making deterministic execution impossible.
This patch adds recording and replaying of random read operations
into guest-random module, which is used by the virtual hardware.

Alex Bennée d759c951f3 replay: push replay_mutex_lock up the call tree
Now instead of using the replay_lock to guard the output of the log we
now use it to protect the whole execution section. This replaces what
the BQL used to do when it was held during TCG execution.

We also introduce some rules for locking order - mainly that you
cannot take the replay_mutex while holding the BQL. This leads to some
slight sophistry during start-up and extending the
replay_mutex_destroy function to unlock the mutex without checking
for the BQL condition so it can be cleanly dropped in the non-replay
case.

Pavel Dovgalyuk 646c5478c0 record/replay: add network support
This patch adds support of recording and replaying network packets in
irount rr mode.

Record and replay for network interactions is performed with the network filter.
Each backend must have its own instance of the replay filter as follows:
 -netdev user,id=net1 -device rtl8139,netdev=net1
 -object filter-replay,id=replay,netdev=net1

Replay network filter is used to record and replay network packets. While
recording the virtual machine this filter puts all packets coming from
the outer world into the log. In replay mode packets from the log are
injected into the network device. All interactions with network backend
in replay mode are disabled.

v5 changes:
 - using iov_to_buf function instead of loop

Pavel Dovgalyuk 63785678f3 replay: introduce block devices record/replay
This patch introduces block driver that implement recording
and replaying of block devices' operations.
All block completion operations are added to the queue.
Queue is flushed at checkpoints and information about processed requests
is recorded to the log. In replay phase the queue is matched with
events read from the log. Therefore block devices requests are processed
deterministically.

Pavel Dovgalyuk e76d1798fa icount: decouple warp calls
qemu_clock_warp function is called to update virtual clock when CPU
is sleeping. This function includes replay checkpoint to make execution
deterministic in icount mode.
Record/replay module flushes async event queue at checkpoints.
Some of the events (e.g., block devices operations) include interaction
with hardware. E.g., APIC polled by block devices sets one of IRQ flags.
Flag to be set depends on currently executed thread (CPU or iothread).
Therefore in replay mode we have to process the checkpoints in the same thread
as they were recorded.
qemu_clock_warp function (and its checkpoint) may be called from different
thread. This patch decouples two different execution cases of this function:
call when CPU is sleeping from iothread and call from cpu thread to update
virtual clock.
First task is performed by qemu_start_warp_timer function. It sets warp
timer event to the moment of nearest pending virtual timer.
Second function (qemu_account_warp_timer) is called from cpu thread
before execution of the code. It advances virtual clock by adding the length
of period while CPU was sleeping.
