Modify the pre_save method on VMStateDescription to return an int
rather than void so that it potentially can fail.
Changed zillions of devices to make them return 0; the only
case I've made it return non-0 is hw/intc/s390_flic_kvm.c that already
had an error_report/return case.
Note: If you add an error exit in your pre_save you must emit
an error_report to say why.

Calculating default node-ids for CPUs in possible_cpu_arch_ids()
is rather fragile since defaults calculation uses nb_numa_nodes but
callback might be potentially called early before all -numa CLI
options are parsed, which would lead to cpus assigned only upto
nb_numa_nodes at the time possible_cpu_arch_ids() is called.
Issue was introduced by
(7c88e65 numa: mirror cpu to node mapping in MachineState::possible_cpus)
and for example CLI:
-smp 4 -numa node,cpus=0 -numa node
would set props.node-id in possible_cpus array for every non
explicitly mapped CPU to the first node.
Issue is not visible to guest nor to mgmt interface due to
1) implictly mapped cpus are forced to the first node in
case of partial mapping
2) in case of default mapping possible_cpu_arch_ids() is
called after all -numa options are parsed (resulting
in correct mapping).
However it's fragile to rely on late execution of
possible_cpu_arch_ids(), therefore add machine specific
callback that returns node-id for CPU and use it to calculate/
set defaults at machine_numa_finish_init() time when all -numa
options are parsed.

The same thing occurs when running a pseries-2.7 with
-global spapr-pci-host-bridge.mem_win_size=2147483648
This happens because we always create a 64-bit MMIO window, even if
we didn't explicitely requested it (ie, mem64_win_size == 0) and the
32-bit window is below 2GiB. It doesn't seem to have an impact on the
guest though because spapr_populate_pci_dt() doesn't advertise the
bogus windows when mem64_win_size == 0.
Since these memory regions don't induce any state, we can safely
choose to not create them when their address is equal to -1,
without breaking migration from existing setups.

KVM now allows writing to KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT which has previously been
read only. Doing so causes KVM to act, for that VM, as if the host's
SMT mode was the given value. This is particularly important on Power
9 systems because their default value is 1, but they are able to
support values up to 8.
This patch introduces a way to control this capability via a new
machine property called VSMT ("Virtual SMT"). If the value is not set
on the command line a default is chosen that is, when possible,
compatible with legacy systems.
Note that the intialization of KVM_CAP_PPC_SMT has changed slightly
because it has changed (in KVM) from a global capability to a
VM-specific one. This won't cause a problem on older KVMs because VM
capabilities fall back to global ones.

KVM PR doesn't allow to set a compat mode. This causes ppc_set_compat_all()

makes sense if raw mode isn't explicitely disabled (ie, the user didn't
set the machine "max-cpu-compat" property). If this is the case, we can

ppc_get_vcpu_dt_id() is actually badly named - it only differs from
cpu_index in cases where you're running on KVM HV and the host's
number of threads differs from the guests. Since KVM HV only supports
PAPR, not e500, it doesn't make sense to use it here.

This patch is a follow up on the discussions made in patch
"hw/ppc: disable hotplug before CAS is completed" that can be
found at [1].
At this moment, we do not support CPU/memory hotplug in early
boot stages, before CAS. When a hotplug occurs, the event is logged
in an internal RTAS event log queue and an IRQ pulse is fired. In
regular conditions, the guest handles the interrupt by executing
check_exception, fetching the generated hotplug event and enabling
the device for use.
In early boot, this IRQ isn't caught (SLOF does not handle hotplug
events), leaving the event in the rtas event log queue. If the guest
executes check_exception due to another hotplug event, the re-assertion
of the IRQ ends up de-queuing the first hotplug event as well. In short,
a device hotplugged before CAS is considered coldplugged by SLOF.
This leads to device misbehavior and, in some cases, guest kernel
Ooops when trying to unplug the device.
A proper fix would be to turn every device hotplugged before CAS
as a colplugged device. This is not trivial to do with the current
code base though - the FDT is written in the guest memory at
ppc_spapr_reset and can't be retrieved without adding extra state
(fdt_size for example) that will need to managed and migrated. Adding
the hotplugged DT in the middle of CAS negotiation via the updated DT
tree works with CPU devs, but panics the guest kernel at boot. Additional
analysis would be necessary for LMBs and PCI devices. There are
questions to be made in QEMU/SLOF/kernel level about how we can make
this change in a sustainable way.
With Linux guests, a fix would be the kernel executing check_exception
at boot time, de-queueing the events that happened in early boot and
processing them. However, even if/when the newer kernels start
fetching these events at boot time, we need to take care of older
kernels that won't be doing that.
This patch works around the situation by issuing a CAS reset if a hotplugged
device is detected during CAS:
- the DRC conditions that warrant a CAS reset is the same as those that
triggers a DRC migration - the DRC must have a device attached and
the DRC state is not equal to its ready_state. With that in mind, this
patch makes use of 'spapr_drc_needed' to determine if a CAS reset
is needed.
- In the middle of CAS negotiations, the function
'spapr_hotplugged_dev_before_cas' goes through all the DRCs to see
if there are any DRC that requires a reset, using spapr_drc_needed. If
that happens, returns '1' in 'spapr_h_cas_compose_response' which will set
spapr->cas_reboot to true, causing the machine to reboot.
No changes are made for coldplug devices.

machine reboot. This allows for unprocessed hotplug/epow events

check_exception later on, these will be being processed by the OS.
This patch implements a new function called 'spapr_clear_pending_events'

old/deprecated events from persisting after a reset.

This patch makes a small fix in 'spapr_drc_needed' to change how we detect
if a DRC has a device attached. Previously it used dr_entity_sense for this,
which works for physical DRCs.
However, for logical DRCs, it didn't cover the case where a logical DRC has
a drc->dev but the state is LOGICAL_UNUSABLE (e.g. a hotplugged CPU before
CAS). In this case, the dr_entity_sense of this DRC returns UNUSABLE and the
code was considering that there were no dev attached, making spapr_drc_needed
return 'false' when in fact we would like to migrate the DRC.
Changing it to check for drc->dev instead works for all DRC types.

this is bad in a function that is used in the hot-plugging calling chain
since this can also cause QEMU to exit unexpectedly.
So let's fix these issues in a proper way now: Add a "Error **errp"
parameter to pc_dimm_get_memory_region() which we use in case the 'memdev'
property has not been set by the user, and which we can use instead of
the &error_abort, and change the callers of get_memory_region() to make
use of this "errp" parameter for proper error checking.
