dbfe4c3611 linux-user: fix problems with inotify syscalls
The sys_inotify* calls are defined if the target supports them and the
host supports the necessary syscalls.  But the syscalls are handled if
the target supports them.  This situation leads to compilation failures
when the host doesn't support the necessary syscalls, as the linker will
complain about undefined functions.

Fix this state of affairs by making the handling conditions the same as
the call definition conditions.

9d1b494a2d Fix crash on resolution change -> screen dump -> vga redraw (Avi Kivity)
The vga screen dump function updates last_width and last_height,
but does not change the DisplaySurface that these variables describe.
A consequent vga_draw_graphic() will therefore fail to resize the
surface and crash.

Fix by invalidating the display state after a screen dump, forcing
vga_draw_graphic() to reallocate the DisplaySurface.

79d342dc6b tcg/x86_64: optimize register allocation order
The beginning of the register allocation order list on the TCG x86_64
target matches the list of clobbered registers. This means that when an
helper is called, there is almost always clobbered registers that have
to be spilled.

The same way register %rsi and %rdi are at the top of the register
allocation order list, while they can't be used for load/store
operations. This means the data and/or address registers are very often
%rsi and %rdi, and their values have to be spilled, and then moved back
to another register.

This patches changes to the allocation order to avoid those effects.
It results in a 8% gain speed in qemu-x86_64 to compress a bzip2 file,
and a 6% gain in qemu-system-mips64 to compile a small application.

0a8e1acd4d qemu-io - an I/O path exerciser (Christoph Hellwig)
This patch adds a new qemu-io tool that links against the block layer and
image formats and allow to exercise them without needing a guest image.
It is inspired by the xfs_io tool which does the same for plain file I/O.
In fact the libxcmd library which is the backend of xfs_io is reused by this
tool in a limited fashing (cmd.[ch] files).

This version tests out most of the plain block I/O commands with the
most notable absent commands beeing snapshot handling and real aio.

This tool is the basis of the I/O path test suite I'm working on right now.

9586fefefe Fix display breakage when resizing the screen (v2) (Avi Kivity)
When the vga resolution changes, a new display surface is not allocated
immediately; instead that is deferred until the next update.  However,
if we're running without a display client attached, that won't happen
and the next bitblt is likely to cause a segfault by overflowing the
display surface.

Fix by reallocating the display immediately when the resolution changes.

Tested with (Windows|Linux) x (cirrus|std) x (curses|sdl).

Changes from v1:

1625af873a Make binary stripping conditional (Riku Voipio)
Currently qemu unconditionally strips binaries on install. This
is a problem for packagers who may want to store/ship debug symbols
of compiled packages for debugging purposes.

Keep stripping as default for the oldtimers and add a
 --disable-strip flag to override.

2d2431f03f qcow2: fix image creation for large, > ~2TB, images (Chris Wright)
When creating large disk images w/ qcow2 format, qcow2_create is hard
coded to creating a single refcount block.  This is insufficient for
large images, and will cause qemu-img to segfault as it walks off the
end of the refcount block.  Keep track of the space needed during image
create and create proper number of refcount blocks accordingly.

8707eccac8 pci_add storage: fix error handling for 'if' parameter (Eduardo Habkost)
This fixes:

 - The error message to show the actual if= argument value. It was showing
   the filename instead, because 'buf' is reaused on the filename parsing.
 - A bug that makes a block device to be created even when an unsupported if= arg
   is passed to pci_add.

93c65b47a6 Add host_device support to qemu-img. (Nolan Leake)
This patch allows the use a host_device as the destination for "qemu-img
convert".

I added a ->bdrv_create function host_device.  It merely verifies that
the device exists and is large enough.

A check is needed in the qemu-img convert loop to ensure that we write
out all 0 sectors to the host_device.  Otherwise they end up with stale
garbage where all zero sectors were expected.

I also made the check against bdrv_is_allocated enabled for everything
_except_ host devices, since there is no point in making the block
backend write a bunch of zeros just so that we can memcmp them
immediately afterwards.  Host devices can't benefit from this because
there is no way to differentiate between a sector being unallocated
because it was never written, or because it was written with all zeros
and then made a trip through qemu-img convert.

Finally, there is an unrelated fix for a typo in the error message
printed if the destination device does not support ->bdrv_create.
