Instead of testing specially next_cpu in host_alarm_handler, just do
that in qemu_notify_event. The idea is, if we are not running (or
not yet running) target CPU code, prepare things so that the execution
loop is exited asap; just make that clear.

qemu_notify_event in the non-iothread case is only stopping the current
CPU. However, if the CPU is idle and the main loop is in the select
call then a call to qemu_event_increment is needed too (as done in
host_alarm_handler). Since in general one doesn't know whether the CPU
is executing or not, it is a safe bet to always do qemu_event_increment.
Another way to see it: after this patch qemu_event_increment is the
"common part" of qemu_notify_event for both the CONFIG_IOTHREAD and
!CONFIG_IOTHREAD cases, which makes sense.

The timer_alarm_pending variable is related to the alarm timer but not
placed in the struct. Also, in qemu_mod_timer the wrong flag was being
tested: the timer is rearmed in the alarm timer "bottom half", so the
right flag to test there is the "pending" flag.
Finally, I hoisted the NULL checks from alarm_has_dynticks to
host_alarm_handler.

The code is initializing an unsigned int to UINT_MAX using "-1", so that

simpler to unconditionally store the result of timeGetDevCaps into

We sometimes permit omitting the first option name, for example
-device foo is short for -device driver=foo. The name to use
("driver" in the example) is passed as argument to qemu_opts_parse().
For each QemuOptsList, we use at most one such name.
Move the name into QemuOptsList, and pass whether to permit the
abbreviation. This ensures continued consistency, and simplifies the
commit after next in this series.
New LOC_CMDLINE. Use it for tracking option with argument in
lookup_opt(). We now report errors like this
qemu: -device smbus-eeprom: Did not find I2C bus for smbus-eeprom
New LOC_FILE. Use it for tracking file name and line number in
qemu_config_parse(). We now report errors like
qemu:foo.conf:42: Did not find I2C bus for smbus-eeprom
In particular, gems like this message:
-device: no driver specified
become almost nice now:
qemu:foo.conf:44: -device: no driver specified
(A later commit will get rid of the bogus -device:)
error_report() terminates the message with a newline. Strip it it
from its arguments.
This fixes a few error messages lacking a newline:
net_handle_fd_param()'s "No file descriptor named %s found", and
tap_open()'s "vnet_hdr=1 requested, but no kernel support for
IFF_VNET_HDR available" (all three versions).
There's one place that passes arguments without newlines
intentionally: load_vmstate(). Fix it up.
qemu_error_sink can either point to a monitor or a file. In practice,
it always points to the current monitor if we have one, else to
stderr. Simply route errors to the current monitor or else to stderr,
and remove qemu_error_sink along with the functions to control it.
Actually, the old code switches the sink slightly later, in
handle_user_command() and handle_qmp_command(), than it gets switched
now, implicitly, by setting the current monitor in monitor_read() and
monitor_control_read(). Likewise, it switches back slightly earlier
(same places). Doesn't make a difference, because there are no calls
of qemu_error() in between.
Something bad has happened in the merge of commit 0ee44250, as
the log message says it's supposed to be in qemu_system_reset()
but it is do_vm_stop().
Possibly, it was a problem with the conflict resolution with
ea375f9a (which has been merged first).
This commit moves (again) the RESET event into qemu_system_reset().

This grand cleanup drops all reset and vmsave/load related
synchronization points in favor of four(!) generic hooks:
- cpu_synchronize_all_states in qemu_savevm_state_complete
(initial sync from kernel before vmsave)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in qemu_loadvm_state
(writeback after vmload)
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_init in main after machine init
- cpu_synchronize_all_post_reset in qemu_system_reset
(writeback after system reset)
These writeback points + the existing one of VCPU exec after
cpu_synchronize_state map on three levels of writeback:
- KVM_PUT_RUNTIME_STATE (during runtime, other VCPUs continue to run)
- KVM_PUT_RESET_STATE (on synchronous system reset, all VCPUs stopped)
- KVM_PUT_FULL_STATE (on init or vmload, all VCPUs stopped as well)
This level is passed to the arch-specific VCPU state writing function
that will decide which concrete substates need to be written. That way,
no writer of load, save or reset functions that interact with in-kernel
KVM states will ever have to worry about synchronization again. That
also means that a lot of reasons for races, segfaults and deadlocks are
eliminated.
cpu_synchronize_state remains untouched, just as Anthony suggested. We
continue to need it before reading or writing of VCPU states that are
also tracked by in-kernel KVM subsystems.
Consequently, this patch removes many cpu_synchronize_state calls that
are now redundant, just like remaining explicit register syncs.

This is a reimplementation of prior versions which adds
the ability to define cpu models for contemporary processors.
The added models are likewise selected via -cpu <name>,
and are intended to displace the existing convention
of "-cpu qemu64" augmented with a series of feature flags.
A primary motivation was determination of a least common
denominator within a given processor class to simplify guest
migration. It is still possible to modify an arbitrary model
via additional feature flags however the goal here was to
make doing so unnecessary in typical usage. The other
consideration was providing models names reflective of
current processors. Both AMD and Intel have reviewed the
models in terms of balancing generality of migration vs.
excessive feature downgrade relative to released silicon.
This version of the patch replaces the prior hard wired
definitions with a configuration file approach for new
models. Existing models are thus far left as-is but may
easily be transitioned to (or may be overridden by) the
configuration file representation.
Proposed new model definitions are provided here for current
AMD and Intel processors. Each model consists of a name
used to select it on the command line (-cpu <name>), and a
model_id which corresponds to a least common denominator
commercial instance of the processor class.
A table of names/model_ids may be queried via "-cpu ?model":
:
x86 Opteron_G3 AMD Opteron 23xx (Gen 3 Class Opteron)
x86 Opteron_G2 AMD Opteron 22xx (Gen 2 Class Opteron)
x86 Opteron_G1 AMD Opteron 240 (Gen 1 Class Opteron)
x86 Nehalem Intel Core i7 9xx (Nehalem Class Core i7)
x86 Penryn Intel Core 2 Duo P9xxx (Penryn Class Core 2)
x86 Conroe Intel Celeron_4x0 (Conroe/Merom Class Core 2)
:
Also added is "-cpu ?dump" which exhaustively outputs all config
data for all defined models, and "-cpu ?cpuid" which enumerates
all qemu recognized CPUID feature flags.
The pseudo cpuid flag 'check' when added to the feature flag list
will warn when feature flags (either implicit in a cpu model or
explicit on the command line) would have otherwise been quietly
unavailable to a guest:
# qemu-system-x86_64 ... -cpu Nehalem,check
warning: host cpuid 0000_0001 lacks requested flag 'sse4.2|sse4_2' [0x00100000]
warning: host cpuid 0000_0001 lacks requested flag 'popcnt' [0x00800000]
A similar 'enforce' pseudo flag exists which in addition
to the above causes qemu to error exit if requested flags are
unavailable.
Configuration data for a cpu model resides in the target config
file which by default will be installed as:
/usr/local/etc/qemu/target-<arch>.conf
The format of this file should be self explanatory given the
definitions for the above six models and essentially mimics
the structure of the static x86_def_t x86_defs.
Encoding of cpuid flags names now allows aliases for both the
configuration file and the command line which reconciles some
Intel/AMD/Linux/Qemu naming differences.
This patch was tested relative to qemu.git.

The default action of coalesced MMIO is, cache the writing in buffer, until:
1. The buffer is full.
2. Or the exit to QEmu due to other reasons.
But this would result in a very late writing in some condition.
1. The each time write to MMIO content is small.
2. The writing interval is big.
3. No need for input or accessing other devices frequently.
This issue was observed in a experimental embbed system. The test image
simply print "test" every 1 seconds. The output in QEmu meets expectation,
but the output in KVM is delayed for seconds.
Per Avi's suggestion, I hooked flushing coalesced MMIO buffer in VGA update
handler. By this way, We don't need vcpu explicit exit to QEmu to
handle this issue.
