In previous patches, we changed some transactionable functions to be
marked as GRAPH_WRLOCK, but required that tran_finalize() is still
called without the lock. This was because all callbacks that can be in
the same transaction need to follow the same convention.
Now that we don't have conflicting requirements any more, we can switch
all of the transaction callbacks to be declared GRAPH_WRLOCK, too, and
call tran_finalize() with the lock held.
Document for each of these transactionable functions that the lock needs
to be held when completing the transaction, and make sure that all
callers down to the place where the transaction is finalised actually
have the writer lock.

bdrv_unref() is called by a lot of places that need to hold the graph
lock (it naturally happens in the context of operations that change the
graph). However, bdrv_unref() takes the graph writer lock internally, so
it can't actually be called while already holding a graph lock without
causing a deadlock.
bdrv_unref() also can't just become GRAPH_WRLOCK because it drains the
node before closing it, and draining requires that the graph is
unlocked.
The solution is to defer deleting the node until we don't hold the lock
any more and draining is possible again.
Note that keeping images open for longer than necessary can create
problems, too: You can't open an image again before it is really closed
(if image locking didn't prevent it, it would cause corruption).
Reopening an image immediately happens at least during bdrv_open() and
bdrv_co_create().
In order to solve this problem, make sure to run the deferred unref in
bdrv_graph_wrunlock(), i.e. the first possible place where we can drain
again. This is also why bdrv_schedule_unref() is marked GRAPH_WRLOCK.
The output of iotest 051 is updated because the additional polling
changes the order of HMP output, resulting in a new "(qemu)" prompt in
the test output that was previously on a separate line and filtered out.

When the permission related BlockDriver callbacks are called, we are in
the middle of an operation traversing the block graph. Polling in such a
place is a very bad idea because the graph could change in unexpected
ways. In the future, callers will also hold the graph lock, which is
likely to turn polling into a deadlock.
So we need to get rid of calls to functions like bdrv_getlength() or
bdrv_truncate() there as these functions poll internally. They are
currently used so that when no parent has write/resize permissions on
the image any more, the preallocate filter drops the extra preallocated
area in the image file and gives up write/resize permissions itself.
In order to achieve this without polling in .bdrv_check_perm, don't
immediately truncate the image, but only schedule a BH to do so. The
filter keeps the write/resize permissions a bit longer now until the BH
has executed.
There is one case in which delaying doesn't work: Reopening the image
read-only. In this case, bs->file will likely be reopened read-only,
too, so keeping write permissions a bit longer on it doesn't work. But
we can already cover this case in preallocate_reopen_prepare() and not
rely on the permission updates for it.

When updating ioeventfds, we need to iterate all address spaces,
but some address spaces do not register eventfd_add|del call when
memory_listener_register() and they do nothing when updating ioeventfds.
So we can skip these AS in address_space_update_ioeventfds().
The overhead of memory_region_transaction_commit() can be significantly
reduced. For example, a VM with 8 vhost net devices and each one has
64 vectors, can reduce the time spent on memory_region_transaction_commit by 20%.

For migration purposes, users might want to reuse the default RAM
backend id, but specify a different memory backend.
For example, to reuse "pc.ram" on q35, one has to set
-machine q35,memory-backend=pc.ram
Only then, can a memory backend with the id "pc.ram" be created
manually.
Let's improve the error message by improving the hint. Use
error_append_hint() -- which in turn requires ERRP_GUARD().

It's easy to miss that memory-backend-file with "share=off" (default)

have write permissions to the file.
In that case, the user has to explicit specify "readonly=on,rom=off" to
get usable RAM, for example, for VM templating.
Let's hint that '-object memory-backend-file,readonly=on,rom=off,...'
exists to consume R/O files in a private mapping to create writable RAM,
but only if we have permissions to open the file read-only.

open() does not fail on directories when opening them readonly (O_RDONLY).
Currently, we succeed opening such directories and fail later during
mmap(), resulting in a misleading error message.

To identify directories and handle them accordingly in file_ram_open()
also when readonly=true was specified, detect if we just opened a directory
using fstat() instead. Then, fail file_ram_open() right away, similarly
to how we now fail if the file does not exist and we want to open the
file readonly.
With this change, we get a nicer error message:

theoretically work, however, ftruncate() will refuse to resize the new
empty file and we'll get a warning:
ftruncate: Invalid argument
And later eventually more problems when actually mmap'ing that file and
accessing it.
If someone intends to let QEMU open+mmap a file read-only, better
create+resize+fill that file ahead of time outside of QEMU context.
We'll now fail with:
./qemu-system-x86_64 \
-object memory-backend-file,id=ram0,mem-path=tmp,readonly=true,size=1g
qemu-system-x86_64: can't open backing store tmp for guest RAM: No such file or directory
All use cases of readonly files (R/O NVDIMMs, VM templating) work on
existing files, so silently creating new files might just hide user
errors when accidentally specifying a non-existent file.
Note that the only memory-backend-file will end up calling
memory_region_init_ram_from_file() -> qemu_ram_alloc_from_file() ->
file_ram_open().
Move error reporting to the single caller.

For now, "share=off,readonly=on" would always result in us opening the
file R/O and mmap'ing the opened file MAP_PRIVATE R/O -- effectively
turning it into ROM.
Especially for VM templating, "share=off" is a common use case. However,
that use case is impossible with files that lack write permissions,
because "share=off,readonly=on" will not give us writable RAM.
The sole user of ROM via memory-backend-file are R/O NVDIMMs, but as we
have users (Kata Containers) that rely on the existing behavior --
malicious VMs should not be able to consume COW memory for R/O NVDIMMs --
we cannot change the semantics of "share=off,readonly=on"
So let's add a new "rom" property with on/off/auto values. "auto" is
the default and what most people will use: for historical reasons, to not
change the old semantics, it defaults to the value of the "readonly"
property.
For VM templating, one can now use:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=on,rom=off,...
But we'll disallow:
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=on,rom=off,...
because we would otherwise get an error when trying to mmap the R/O file
shared and writable. An explicit error message is cleaner.
We will also disallow for now:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=off,rom=on,...
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=off,rom=on,...
It's not harmful, but also not really required for now.
Alternatives that were abandoned:
* Make "unarmed=on" for the NVDIMM set the memory region container
readonly. We would still see a change of ROM->RAM and possibly run
into memslot limits with vhost-user. Further, there might be use cases
for "unarmed=on" that should still allow writing to that memory
(temporary files, system RAM, ...).
* Add a new "readonly=on/off/auto" parameter for NVDIMMs. Similar issues
as with "unarmed=on".
* Make "readonly" consume "on/off/file" instead of being a 'bool' type.
This would slightly changes the behavior of the "readonly" parameter:
values like true/false (as accepted by a 'bool'type) would no longer be
accepted.

There is a difference between how we open a file and how we mmap it,
and we want to support writable private mappings of readonly files. Let's
define RAM_READONLY and RAM_READONLY_FD flags, to replace the single
"readonly" parameter for file-related functions.
In memory_region_init_ram_from_fd() and memory_region_init_ram_from_file(),
initialize mr->readonly based on the new RAM_READONLY flag.
While at it, add some RAM_* flags we missed to add to the list of accepted
flags in the documentation of some functions.
No change in functionality intended. We'll make use of both flags next
and start setting them independently for memory-backend-file.

Currently, when using a true R/O NVDIMM (ROM memory backend) with a label
area, the VM can easily crash QEMU by trying to write to the label area,
because the ROM memory is mmap'ed without PROT_WRITE.
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl disable-region region0
disabled 1 region
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl zero-labels nmem0
-> QEMU segfaults
Let's remember whether we have a ROM memory backend and properly
reject the write request:
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl disable-region region0
disabled 1 region
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl zero-labels nmem0
zeroed 0 nmem
In comparison, on a system with a R/W NVDIMM:
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl disable-region region0
disabled 1 region
[root@vm-0 ~]# ndctl zero-labels nmem0
zeroed 1 nmem
For ACPI, just return "unsupported", like if no label exists. For spapr,
return "H_P2", similar to when no label area exists.
Could we rely on the "unarmed" property? Maybe, but it looks cleaner to
only disallow what certainly cannot work.
After all "unarmed=on" primarily means: cannot accept persistent writes. In
theory, there might be setups where devices with "unarmed=on" set could
be used to host non-persistent data (temporary files, system RAM, ...); for
example, in Linux, admins can overwrite the "readonly" setting and still
write to the device -- which will work as long as we're not using ROM.
Allowing writing label data in such configurations can make sense.

Update all relevant PowerPC entries as follows:
- Nick Piggin is promoted to Maintainer in all qemu-ppc subsystems.
Nick has been a solid contributor for the last couple of years and
has the required knowledge and motivation to drive the boat.
- Greg Kurz is being removed from all qemu-ppc entries. Greg has moved
to other areas of interest and will retire from qemu-ppc. Thanks Mr
Kurz for all the years of service.
- David Gibson was removed as 'Reviewer' from PowerPC TCG CPUs and PPC
KVM CPUs. Change done per his request.
- Daniel Barboza downgraded from 'Maintainer' to 'Reviewer' in sPAPR and
PPC KVM CPUs. It has been a long since I last touched those areas and
it's not justified to be kept as maintainer in them.
- Cedric Le Goater and Daniel Barboza removed as 'Reviewer' in VOF. We
don't have the required knowledge to justify it.
- VOF support downgraded from 'Maintained' to 'Odd Fixes' since it
better reflects the current state of the subsystem.

Use a heap allocation instead of a variable length array in
tap_receive_iov().
The codebase has very few VLAs, and if we can get rid of them all we
can make the compiler error on new additions. This is a defensive
measure against security bugs where an on-stack dynamic allocation
isn't correctly size-checked (e.g. CVE-2021-3527).
