The tutorial doesn't match reality since at least 2013. Repairing it
involves fixing the following issues:
* Update for commit 6d32717155 (aio / timers: Remove alarm timers):
replace the broken examples. Instead of having one for returning a
struct and another for returning a list of structs, do just one for
the latter. This resolves the FIXME added in commit
e218052f92 (aio / timers: De-document -clock) back in 2014.
* Update for commit 895a2a80e0 (qapi: Use 'struct' instead of 'type'
in schema).
* Update for commit 3313b6124b (qapi: add qapi2texi script): add
required documentation to the schema snippets, and drop section
"Command Documentation".
* Update for commit a3c45b3e62 (qapi: New special feature flag
"unstable"): supply the required feature, deemphasize the x- prefix.
* Update for commit dd98234c05 (qapi: introduce x-query-roms QMP
command): rephrase from "add new command" to "examine existing
command".
* Update for commit 9492718b7c (qapi misc: Elide redundant has_FOO in

has_message, add a second argument that does.
* Update for moved and renamed files.

Add a new migration capability 'mapped-ram'.
The core of the feature is to ensure that RAM pages are mapped
directly to offsets in the resulting migration file instead of being
streamed at arbitrary points.
The reasons why we'd want such behavior are:
- The resulting file will have a bounded size, since pages which are
dirtied multiple times will always go to a fixed location in the
file, rather than constantly being added to a sequential
stream. This eliminates cases where a VM with, say, 1G of RAM can
result in a migration file that's 10s of GBs, provided that the
workload constantly redirties memory.
- It paves the way to implement O_DIRECT-enabled save/restore of the
migration stream as the pages are ensured to be written at aligned
offsets.
- It allows the usage of multifd so we can write RAM pages to the
migration file in parallel.
For now, enabling the capability has no effect. The next couple of
patches implement the core functionality.

With the new plugin register API we can now track changes to register
values. Currently the implementation is fairly dumb which will slow
down if a large number of register values are being tracked. This
could be improved by only instrumenting instructions which mention
registers we are interested in tracking.
Example usage:
./qemu-aarch64 -D plugin.log -d plugin \
-cpu max,sve256=on \
-plugin contrib/plugins/libexeclog.so,reg=sp,reg=z\* \
./tests/tcg/aarch64-linux-user/sha512-sve
will display in the execlog any changes to the stack pointer (sp) and
the SVE Z registers.
As testing registers every instruction will be quite a heavy operation
there is an additional flag which attempts to optimise the register
tracking by only instrumenting instructions which are likely to change
its value. This relies on the QEMU disassembler showing up the register
names in disassembly so is an explicit opt-in.

We have an OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED macro, plus several variations
on it, which emits the boilerplate for the TypeInfo and ensures it is
registered with the type system. However, all the existing macros
insist that the type being defined has its own FooClass struct, so
they aren't useful for the common case of a simple leaf class which
doesn't have any new methods or any other need for its own class
struct (that is, for the kind of type that OBJECT_DECLARE_SIMPLE_TYPE
declares).
Pull the actual implementation of OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED out
into a new DO_OBJECT_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED which parameterizes the
value we use for the class_size field. This lets us add a new
OBJECT_DEFINE_SIMPLE_TYPE which does the same job as the various
existing OBJECT_DEFINE_*_TYPE_* family macros for this kind of simple
type, and the variant OBJECT_DEFINE_SIMPLE_TYPE_WITH_INTERFACES for
when the type will implement some interfaces.

We can't just embed labels directly into files like qemu-options.hx which
are included from multiple top-level rST files, because Sphinx sees the
labels as duplicate: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/9707
So add an optional argument to the SRST directive which causes a label
of the form '.. _DOCNAME-HXFILE-LABEL:' to be emitted, where 'DOCNAME'
is the name of the top level rST file, 'HXFILE' is the filename of the
.hx file, and 'LABEL' is the text provided within the 'SRST()' directive.
Using the DOCNAME of the top-level rST document means that it is unique
even when the .hx file is included from two different documents, as is
the case for qemu-options.hx
Now where the Xen PV documentation refers to the documentation for the
-initrd command line option, it can emit a link directly to it as
'<system/invocation-qemu-options-initrd>'.

Create an index page for migration module. Move VFIO migration there too.
A trivial touch-up on the title to use lower case there.
Since then we'll have "migration" as the top title, make the main doc file
renamed to "migration framework".

Migration documentation is growing into a single file too large. Create a
sub-directory for it for a split.
We also already have separate vfio/virtio documentations, move it all over
into the directory.
Note that the virtio one is still not yet converted to rST. That is a job
for later.

We don't currently document the syntax of .hx files anywhere
except in a few comments at the top of individual .hx files.
We don't even have somewhere in the developer docs where we
could do this.
Add a new files docs/devel/docs.rst which can be a place to
document how our docs build process works. For the moment,
put in only a brief introductory paragraph and the documentation
of the .hx files. We could later add to this file by for
example describing how the QAPI-schema-to-docs process works,
or anything else that developers might need to know about
how to add documentation.
Make the .hx files refer to this doc file, and clean
up their header comments to be more accurate for the
usage in each file and less cut-n-pasted.

The term "QEMU global mutex" is identical to the more widely used Big
QEMU Lock ("BQL"). Update the code comments and documentation to use
"BQL" instead of "QEMU global mutex".

The term "iothread lock" is obsolete. The APIs use Big QEMU Lock (BQL)
in their names. Update the code comments to use "BQL" instead of
"iothread lock".

This variable is about the host OS, not the target. It is used a lot
more since the Meson conversion, but the original sin dates back to 2003.
Time to fix it.

CONFIG_ALL is tricky to use and was ported over to Meson from the
recursive processing of Makefile variables. Meson sourcesets
however have all_sources() and all_dependencies() methods that
remove the need for it.
