Symptom:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 10000000
Unexpected error in ram_block_add() at /work/armbru/qemu/exec.c:1456:
upstream-qemu: cannot set up guest memory 'pc.ram': Cannot allocate memory
Aborted (core dumped)
Root cause: commit ef701d7 screwed up handling of out-of-memory
conditions. Before the commit, we report the error and exit(1), in
one place, ram_block_add(). The commit lifts the error handling up
the call chain some, to three places. Fine. Except it uses
&error_abort in these places, changing the behavior from exit(1) to
abort(), and thus undoing the work of commit 3922825 "exec: Don't
abort when we can't allocate guest memory".
The three places are:
* memory_region_init_ram()
Commit 4994653 (right after commit ef701d7) lifted the error
handling further, through memory_region_init_ram(), multiplying the
incorrect use of &error_abort. Later on, imitation of existing
(bad) code may have created more.
* memory_region_init_ram_ptr()
The &error_abort is still there.
* memory_region_init_rom_device()
Doesn't need fixing, because commit 33e0eb5 (soon after commit
ef701d7) lifted the error handling further, and in the process
changed it from &error_abort to passing it up the call chain.
Correct, because the callers are realize() methods.
Fix the error handling after memory_region_init_ram() with a
Coccinelle semantic patch:
@r@
expression mr, owner, name, size, err;
position p;
@@
memory_region_init_ram(mr, owner, name, size,
(
- &error_abort
+ &error_fatal
|
err@p
)
);
@script:python@
p << r.p;
@@
print "%s:%s:%s" % (p[0].file, p[0].line, p[0].column)
When the last argument is &error_abort, it gets replaced by
&error_fatal. This is the fix.
If the last argument is anything else, its position is reported. This
lets us check the fix is complete. Four positions get reported:
* ram_backend_memory_alloc()
Error is passed up the call chain, ultimately through
user_creatable_complete(). As far as I can tell, it's callers all
handle the error sanely.
* fsl_imx25_realize(), fsl_imx31_realize(), dp8393x_realize()
DeviceClass.realize() methods, errors handled sanely further up the
call chain.
We're good. Test case again behaves:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 10000000
qemu-system-x86_64: cannot set up guest memory 'pc.ram': Cannot allocate memory
[Exit 1 ]
The next commits will repair the rest of commit ef701d7's damage.

commit e938ba0c tried to enable -mem-path for ppc but breaked some ppc
boards.
The problems are:
1. it fails when allocating memory for rom, sram whose sizes are less
than huge page size:
./ppc-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc -m 512 -mem-path /hugepages/ \
-kernel /home/hutao/Downloads/vmlinux-ppc -initrd \
/home/hutao/Downloads/initrd-ppc.gz
qemu-system-ppc: /mnt/data/projects/qemu/exec.c:1184: qemu_ram_set_idstr: Assertion `new_block' failed.
2. if there is a numa node backed by memory backend object, qemu fails
with message:
./ppc-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc -m 512 \
-object memory-backend-file,size=512M,mem-path=/hugepages,id=f0 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,memdev=f0 \
-kernel /home/hutao/Downloads/vmlinux-ppc \
-initrd /home/hutao/Downloads/initrd-ppc.gz
qemu-system-ppc: memory backend f0 is used multiple times. Each -numa option must use a different memdev value.
This patch does following:
1. replaces memory_region_allocate_system_memory() with
memory_region_init_ram() for rom, sram. Then only system memory
is backed by hugepages when specifying mem-path.
2. for memory banks, allocates all ram with
one memory_region_allocate_system_memory(), and use
memory_region_init_alias() to initialize memory banks.
Tested machines: default(g3beige), mac99, taihu, bamboo, ref405ep.

Commit 0b183fc871:"memory: move mem_path handling to
memory_region_allocate_system_memory" split memory_region_init_ram and
memory_region_init_ram_from_file. Also it moved mem-path handling a step
up from memory_region_init_ram to memory_region_allocate_system_memory.
Therefore for any board that uses memory_region_init_ram directly,
-mem-path is not supported.
Fix this by replacing memory_region_init_ram with
memory_region_allocate_system_memory.

Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification.
Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending
on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target.
However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.
