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.

If there is still work to do, it is not safe to assume we
can end the dirty tracking. Specifically, kvm can update the dirty
tracking log inside ram_save_block(), leaving pages still out of sync
if we go with the current code.

qcow2 files are not growable but we rely on them being growable to do
savevm/loadvm. Temporarily allow them to be growable by introducing a new

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.

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.

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.

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.

qcow2's get_cluster_offset() scans forward in the l2 table to find other
clusters that have the same allocation status as the first cluster.
This is used by (among others) qcow_is_allocated().
Unfortunately, it was not checking to be sure that it didn't fall off
the end of the l2 table. This patch adds that check.
The symptom that motivated me to look into this was that
bdrv_is_allocated() was returning false when there was in fact data
there. This is one of many ways this bug could lead to data corruption.
I checked the other place that scans for consecutive unallocated blocks
(alloc_cluster_offset()) and it appears to be OK:
nb_clusters = MIN(nb_clusters, s->l2_size - l2_index);
appears to prevent the same problem from occurring.

target-ppc/translate.c puts values of type opcode_t into .opcodes
section, using GCC extension to do so, and hoping that this will make
them appear contiguously and in the source order in the resulting
executable. This assumption is not safe and is known to be violated
with certain versions of GCC, certain flags passed to it and on
certain platforms (gcc 4.3.0, -O and PPC/PPC64 for instance)
The workaround consists of adding -fno-unit-at-a-time to the list of
GCC command line options while building PPC translate.o on a PPC.
