The only way object_property_add() can fail is when a property with
the same name already exists. Since our property names are all
hardcoded, failure is a programming error, and the appropriate way to
handle it is passing &error_abort.
Same for its variants, except for object_property_add_child(), which
additionally fails when the child already has a parent. Parentage is
also under program control, so this is a programming error, too.
We have a bit over 500 callers. Almost half of them pass
&error_abort, slightly fewer ignore errors, one test case handles
errors, and the remaining few callers pass them to their own callers.
The previous few commits demonstrated once again that ignoring
programming errors is a bad idea.
Of the few ones that pass on errors, several violate the Error API.
The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL. Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call. ich9_pm_add_properties(), sparc32_ledma_realize(),
sparc32_dma_realize(), xilinx_axidma_realize(), xilinx_enet_realize()
are wrong that way.
When the one appropriate choice of argument is &error_abort, letting
users pick the argument is a bad idea.
Drop parameter @errp and assert the preconditions instead.
There's one exception to "duplicate property name is a programming
error": the way object_property_add() implements the magic (and
undocumented) "automatic arrayification". Don't drop @errp there.
Instead, rename object_property_add() to object_property_try_add(),
and add the obvious wrapper object_property_add().

object_property_set_description() and

is not found.
There are 85 calls of object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description(). None of them can fail:
* 84 immediately follow the creation of the property.
* The one in spapr_rng_instance_init() refers to a property created in
spapr_rng_class_init(), from spapr_rng_properties[].
Every one of them still gets to decide what to pass for @errp.
51 calls pass &error_abort, 32 calls pass NULL, one receives the error
and propagates it to &error_abort, and one propagates it to
&error_fatal. I'm actually surprised none of them violates the Error
API.
What are we gaining by letting callers handle the "property not found"
error? Use when the property is not known to exist is simpler: you
don't have to guard the call with a check. We haven't found such a
use in 5+ years. Until we do, let's make life a bit simpler and drop

[One semantic rebase conflict resolved]
Since 5.0 QEMU uses hostmem backend for allocating main guest RAM.
The backend however calls mbind() which is typically NOP
in case of default policy/absent host-nodes bitmap.
However when runing in container with black-listed mbind()
syscall, QEMU fails to start with error
"cannot bind memory to host NUMA nodes: Operation not permitted"
even when user hasn't provided host-nodes to pin to explictly
(which is the case with -m option)
To fix issue, call mbind() only in case when user has provided
host-nodes explicitly (i.e. host_nodes bitmap is not empty).
That should allow to run QEMU in containers with black-listed
mbind() without memory pinning. If QEMU provided memory-pinning
is required user still has to white-list mbind() in container
configuration.

When option -mem-prealloc is used with one or more memory-backend
objects, created backends may not obey configured bind policy or
creation may fail after kernel attempts to move pages according
to bind policy.
Reason is in file_ram_alloc(), which will pre-allocate
any descriptor based RAM if global mem_prealloc != 0 and that
happens way before bind policy is applied to memory range.
One way to fix it would be to extend memory_region_foo() API
and add more invariants that could broken later due implicit
dependencies that's hard to track.
Another approach is to drop adhoc main RAM allocation and
consolidate it around memory-backend. That allows to have
single place that allocates guest RAM (main and memdev)
in the same way and then global mem_prealloc could be
replaced by backend's property[s] that will affect created
memory-backend objects but only in correct order this time.
With main RAM now converted to hostmem backends, there is no
point in keeping global mem_prealloc around, so alias
-mem-prealloc to "memory-backend.prealloc=on"
machine compat[*] property and make mem_prealloc a local
variable to only stir registration of compat property.
*) currently user accessible -global works only with DEVICE
based objects and extra work is needed to make it work
with hostmem backends. But that is convenience option
and out of scope of this already huge refactoring.
Hence machine compat properties were used.

Neither stat(2) nor lseek(2) report the size of Linux devdax pmem
character device nodes. Commit 314aec4a6e
("hostmem-file: reject invalid pmem file sizes") added code to
hostmem-file.c to fetch the size from sysfs and compare against the
user-provided size=NUM parameter:
if (backend->size > size) {
error_setg(errp, "size property %" PRIu64 " is larger than "
"pmem file \"%s\" size %" PRIu64, backend->size,
fb->mem_path, size);
return;
}
It turns out that exec.c:qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd() already has an
equivalent size check but it skips devdax pmem character devices because
lseek(2) returns 0:
if (file_size > 0 && file_size < size) {
error_setg(errp, "backing store %s size 0x%" PRIx64
" does not match 'size' option 0x" RAM_ADDR_FMT,
mem_path, file_size, size);
return NULL;
}
This patch moves the devdax pmem file size code into get_file_size() so
that we check the memory size in a single place:
qemu_ram_alloc_from_fd(). This simplifies the code and makes it more
general.
This also fixes the problem that hostmem-file only checks the devdax
pmem file size when the pmem=on parameter is given. An unchecked
size=NUM parameter can lead to SIGBUS in QEMU so we must always fetch
the file size for Linux devdax pmem character device nodes.

This is useful because getting the size wrong results in confusing
errors inside the guest.
However, the code doesn't work properly for files where struct
stat::st_size is zero. Hostmem-file's ->alloc() function returns early
without setting an Error, causing the following assertion failure:

When QEMU exposes a VirtIO-RNG device to the guest, that device needs a
source of entropy, and that source needs to be "non-blocking", like
`/dev/urandom`. However, currently QEMU defaults to the problematic
`/dev/random`, which on Linux is "blocking" (as in, it waits until
sufficient entropy is available).
Why prefer `/dev/urandom` over `/dev/random`?

of /dev/urandom were not widely trusted. It will return random
bytes only within the estimated number of bits of fresh noise in the
entropy pool, blocking if necessary. /dev/random is suitable for
applications that need high quality randomness, and can afford
indeterminate delays."
Further, the "Usage" section of the said man pages state:
"The /dev/random interface is considered a legacy interface, and
/dev/urandom is preferred and sufficient in all use cases, with the
exception of applications which require randomness during early boot
time; for these applications, getrandom(2) must be used instead,
because it will block until the entropy pool is initialized.
"If a seed file is saved across reboots as recommended below (all
major Linux distributions have done this since 2000 at least), the
output is cryptographically secure against attackers without local
root access as soon as it is reloaded in the boot sequence, and
perfectly adequate for network encryption session keys. Since reads
from /dev/random may block, users will usually want to open it in
nonblocking mode (or perform a read with timeout), and provide some
sort of user notification if the desired entropy is not immediately
available."
And refer to random(7) for a comparison of `/dev/random` and
`/dev/urandom`.
What about other OSes?
----------------------
`/dev/urandom` exists and works on OS-X, FreeBSD, DragonFlyBSD, NetBSD
and OpenBSD, which cover all the non-Linux platforms we explicitly
support, aside from Windows.
On Windows `/dev/random` doesn't work either so we don't regress.
This is actually another argument in favour of using the newly
proposed 'rng-builtin' backend by default, as that will work on
Windows.

Given the above, change the entropy source for VirtIO-RNG device to
`/dev/urandom`.

vhost-user backend (or "slave" process) and can be referenced from
virtio devices that support it. See later patches for input & gpu

Note: a previous iteration of this object made it user-creatable, and
allowed managed sub-process spawning, but that has been dropped for

Guests started with NVDIMMs larger than the underlying host file produce
confusing errors inside the guest. This happens because the guest
accesses pages beyond the end of the file.
Check the pmem file size on startup and print a clear error message if
the size is invalid.

when trying to get value of not set hostmem's "host-nodes"

any bits set in it, which leads to find_first_bit() returning
MAX_NODES and consequently to an early return from

Fix it by calling visitor even if "host-nodes" property wasn't

However, other POSIX-based hosts (such as macOS) can support

When QEMU emulates vNVDIMM labels and migrates vNVDIMM devices, it
needs to know whether the backend storage is a real persistent memory,
in order to decide whether special operations should be performed to
ensure the data persistence.
This boolean option 'pmem' allows users to specify whether the backend
storage of memory-backend-file is a real persistent memory. If
'pmem=on', QEMU will set the flag RAM_PMEM in the RAM block of the
corresponding memory region. If 'pmem' is set while lack of libpmem
support, a error is generated.
