Following the recent extension of QEMU with a TPM emulator device,
update the specs describing for how to interact with the device.
The results of commands run inside a Linux VM are expected to be
similar to those when the TPM passthrough device is used, so we
just reuse that.

Legacy PCI device assignment has been removed from Linux in 4.12,
and had been deprecated 2 years ago there. We can remove it from
QEMU as well.
The ROM loading code was shared with Xen PCI passthrough, so move
it to hw/xen.

Proper support of persistent reservation for multipath devices requires
communication with the multipath daemon, so that the reservation is
registered and applied when a path comes up. The device mapper
utilities provide a library to do so; this patch makes qemu-pr-helper.c
detect multipath devices and, when one is found, delegate the operation
to libmpathpersist.
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
Introduce a privileged helper to run persistent reservation commands.
This lets virtual machines send persistent reservations without using
CAP_SYS_RAWIO or out-of-tree patches. The helper uses Unix permissions
and SCM_RIGHTS to restrict access to processes that can access its socket
and prove that they have an open file descriptor for a raw SCSI device.
The next patch will also correct the usage of persistent reservations
with multipath devices.
It would also be possible to support for Linux's IOC_PR_* ioctls in
the future, to support NVMe devices. For now, however, only SCSI is
supported.
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
It is a common requirement for virtual machine to send persistent
reservations, but this currently requires either running QEMU with
CAP_SYS_RAWIO, or using out-of-tree patches that let an unprivileged
QEMU bypass Linux's filter on SG_IO commands.
As an alternative mechanism, the next patches will introduce a
privileged helper to run persistent reservation commands without
expanding QEMU's attack surface unnecessarily.
The helper is invoked through a "pr-manager" QOM object, to which
file-posix.c passes SG_IO requests for PERSISTENT RESERVE OUT and
PERSISTENT RESERVE IN commands. For example:
$ qemu-system-x86_64
-device virtio-scsi \
-object pr-manager-helper,id=helper0,path=/var/run/qemu-pr-helper.sock
-drive if=none,id=hd,driver=raw,file.filename=/dev/sdb,file.pr-manager=helper0
-device scsi-block,drive=hd
or:
$ qemu-system-x86_64
-device virtio-scsi \
-object pr-manager-helper,id=helper0,path=/var/run/qemu-pr-helper.sock
-blockdev node-name=hd,driver=raw,file.driver=host_device,file.filename=/dev/sdb,file.pr-manager=helper0
-device scsi-block,drive=hd
Multiple pr-manager implementations are conceivable and possible, though
only one is implemented right now. For example, a pr-manager could:
- talk directly to the multipath daemon from a privileged QEMU
(i.e. QEMU links to libmpathpersist); this makes reservation work
properly with multipath, but still requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO
- use the Linux IOC_PR_* ioctls (they require CAP_SYS_ADMIN though)
- more interestingly, implement reservations directly in QEMU
through file system locks or a shared database (e.g. sqlite)

It's possible for address_space_get_flatview() as it currently stands
to cause a use-after-free for the returned FlatView, if the reference
count is incremented after the FlatView has been replaced by a writer:
thread 1 thread 2 RCU thread
-------------------------------------------------------------
rcu_read_lock
read as->current_map
set as->current_map
flatview_unref
'--> call_rcu
flatview_ref
[ref=1]
rcu_read_unlock
flatview_destroy
<badness>
Since FlatViews are not updated very often, we can just detect the
situation using a new atomic op atomic_fetch_inc_nonzero, similar to
Linux's atomic_inc_not_zero, which performs the refcount increment only if
it hasn't already hit zero. This is similar to Linux commit de09a9771a53

credentials", 2010-07-29).

This patch documents (including their QMP invocations) all the four
major kinds of live block operations:
- `block-stream`
- `block-commit`
- `drive-mirror` (& `blockdev-mirror`)
- `drive-backup` (& `blockdev-backup`)
Things considered while writing this document:
- Use reStructuredText as markup language (with the goal of generating
the HTML output using the Sphinx Documentation Generator). It is
gentler on the eye, and can be trivially converted to different
formats. (Another reason: upstream QEMU is considering to switch to
Sphinx, which uses reStructuredText as its markup language.)
- Raw QMP JSON output vs. 'qmp-shell'. I debated with myself whether
to only show raw QMP JSON output (as that is the canonical
representation), or use 'qmp-shell', which takes key-value pairs. I
settled on the approach of: for the first occurrence of a command,
use raw JSON; for subsequent occurrences, use 'qmp-shell', with an
occasional exception.
- Usage of `-blockdev` command-line.
- Usage of 'node-name' vs. file path to refer to disks. While we have
`blockdev-{mirror, backup}` as 'node-name'-alternatives for
`drive-{mirror, backup}`, the `block-commit` command still operates
on file names for parameters 'base' and 'top'. So I added a caveat
at the beginning to that effect.
Refer this related thread that I started (where I learnt
`block-stream` was recently reworked to accept 'node-name' for 'top'
and 'base' parameters):
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2017-05/msg06466.html
"[RFC] Making 'block-stream', and 'block-commit' accept node-name"
All commands showed in this document were tested while documenting.
Thanks: Eric Blake for the section: "A note on points-in-time vs file
names". This useful bit was originally articulated by Eric in his
KVMForum 2015 presentation, so I included that specific bit in this
document.

bdrv_aio_readv/writev/flush()") removed

A bitmap directory entry is sometimes called a 'bitmap header'. This
patch leaves only one name - 'bitmap directory entry'. The name 'bitmap
header' creates misunderstandings with 'qcow2 header' and 'qcow2 bitmap
header extension' (which is extension of qcow2 header)

Developer documentation should be its own manual. As a start, move all
developer-oriented files to a separate directory.
Also move non-text files to their own directories: docs/config/ for
QEMU -readconfig input, and docs/spin/ for formal models to be used
with the SPIN model checker.

This patch specifies and implements the master/slave communication
to support device IOTLB in slave.
The vhost_iotlb_msg structure introduced for kernel backends is
re-used, making the design close between the two backends.
An exception is the use of the secondary channel to enable the
slave to send IOTLB miss requests to the master.

The preferred way of adding USB devices is via "-device" and
"device_add" nowadays, so let's start to get rid of "-usbdevice"
and "usb_add" in the documentation. While we're at it, also
add the new USB devices there which have been added to QEMU
during the last years, and get rid of the old "vendorid" and
"productid" parameters of "-usbdevice serial" which have been
removed in QEMU version 0.14.0 already.
