Currently Qemu can read from posix I/O and NBD. This patch adds a
third protocol to the game: HTTP.
In certain situations it can be useful to access HTTP data directly,
for example if you want to try out an http provided OS image, but
don't know if you want to download it yet.
Using this patch you can now try it on on the fly. Just use it like:
qemu -cdrom http://host/path/my.iso

Add in a workaround to allow the usb serial devices to work with the
usb pass through mechanism. The ioctl() to request an alternate
interface will always return < 0 for a usb-serial device based on the
kernel driver. This means there is no alternate interface end point.
This was fully tested with a pl2303 usb serial device.

After creating an automated regression test to test the sysrq
responses while running a linux image in qemu, I found that the
simulated uart was eating the character right after the sysrq about
75% of the time.
The problem is that the qemu sets the LSR_DR (data ready) bit on a
serial break. The automated tests can send a break and the sysrq
character quickly enough that the qemu serial fifo has a real
character available. When there is valid character in the fifo, it
gets consumed by the serial driver in the guest OS.
The real hardware also appears to set the LSR_DR but always appears to
have a null byte in this condition. This patch changes the qemu
behavior to match the tested characteristics of a real 16550 chip.

Implement the serial break via usb serial.
The second data byte in ftdi status packet contains the break status.
The values were already defined in usb-serial.c so it was a matter of
making use of the event_trigger to form a urb to send over to the host
controller with the serial break status set.
This was tested against a linux development image which enables sysrq
via a serial break on the ftdi usb console.

Save and restore all so far neglected KVM-specific CPU states. Handling
the TSC stabilizes migration in KVM mode. The interrupt_bitmap and
mp_state are currently unused, but will become relevant for in-kernel
irqchip support. By including proper saving/restoring already, we avoid
having to increment CPU_SAVE_VERSION later on once again.

Add the parameter 'order' to qemu_register_reset and sort callbacks on
registration. On system reset, callbacks with lower order will be
invoked before those with higher order. Update all existing users to the
standard order 0.
Note: At least for x86, the existing users seem to assume that handlers
are called in their registration order. Therefore, the patch preserves
this property. If someone feels bored, (s)he could try to identify this
dependency and express it properly on callback registration.

It adds proper synchronization before/after saving/restoring the VCPU

at KVM level, and synchronizes that drity log into QEMU's view before

Now we can make use of the newly introduced option structures. Instead of

This patch creates a new header file and the corresponding implementation file
for parsing of parameter strings for options (like used in -drive). Part of
this is code moved from vl.c (so qemu-img can use it later).
The idea is to have a data structure describing all accepted parameters. When
parsing a parameter string, the structure is copied and filled with the
parameter values.

My previous commit, f92f8afebe, broke -vnc (spotted by Glauber Costa). This
is because it's necessary to tell when the no special display parameters have
been passed and default to SDL or VNC appropriately.

the effect of fixing the regression mentioned above.

--disable-gfx-check predates VNC server support. It made sense back then
because the only thing you could do without SDL was use -nographic mode or
similar tricks. Since this is a very advanced mode of operation, gfx-check
provided a good safety net for casual users.
A casual user is very likely to use VNC to interact with a guest. In fact, it's
often frustrating to install QEMU on a server and have to specify
disable-gfx-check when you only want to use VNC.
This patch eliminates disable-gfx-check and makes SDL behave like every other
optional dependency. If SDL is not available, instead of failing ungracefully
if no special options are specified, we default to -vnc localhost:0,to=99.
When we do default to VNC, we also print a message to tell the user that we've
done this include which port we're currently listening on.
