By making use of libvhost-user, block device drive can be shared to
the connected vhost-user client. Only one client can connect to the
server one time.
Since vhost-user-server needs a block drive to be created first, delay
the creation of this object.

Some of the qtests use "-accel kvm -accel tcg" to run real guest code.
This causes some error messages when kvm is not available. We do not
really care about these messages since the fallback to tcg is expected
here. So let's silence them to avoid that they spoil the output of
the tests.
Unfortunately, we can not use the qtest_enabled() wrapper in this case,
since the qtest accelerator itself is not initialized. Thus we have to
test for the qtest_chrdev variable instead.

have been moved to accel/tcg; what's left is mostly the low-level part

However exec.c also hosts 4-500 lines of code for the target specific
parts of the CPU QOM object, plus a few functions for user-mode
emulation that do not have a better place (they are not TCG-specific so
accel/tcg/user-exec.c is not a good place either).

This patch adds support of the reverse continue operation for gdbstub.
Reverse continue finds the last breakpoint that would happen in normal
execution from the beginning to the current moment.
Implementation of the reverse continue replays the execution twice:
to find the breakpoints that were hit and to seek to the last breakpoint.
Reverse continue loads the previous snapshot and tries to find the breakpoint
since that moment. If there are no such breakpoints, it proceeds to
the earlier snapshot, and so on. When no breakpoints or watchpoints were
hit at all, execution stops at the beginning of the replay log.

GDB remote protocol supports two reverse debugging commands:
reverse step and reverse continue.
This patch adds support of the first one to the gdbstub.
Reverse step is intended to step one instruction in the backwards
direction. This is not possible in regular execution.
But replayed execution is deterministic, therefore we can load one of
the prior snapshots and proceed to the desired step. It is equivalent
to stepping one instruction back.
There should be at least one snapshot preceding the debugged part of
the replay log.

refactoring of cpus.c continues with cpu timer state extraction.
cpu-timers: responsible for the softmmu cpu timers state,
including cpu clocks and ticks.
icount: counts the TCG instructions executed. As such it is specific to
the TCG accelerator. Therefore, it is built only under CONFIG_TCG.
One complication is due to qtest, which uses an icount field to warp time
as part of qtest (qtest_clock_warp).
In order to solve this problem, provide a separate counter for qtest.
This requires fixing assumptions scattered in the code that
qtest_enabled() implies icount_enabled(), checking each specific case.

clang's C11 atomic_fetch_*() functions only take a C11 atomic type
pointer argument. QEMU uses direct types (int, etc) and this causes a
compiler error when a QEMU code calls these functions in a source file
that also included <stdatomic.h> via a system header file:
$ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure ... && make
../util/async.c:79:17: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('unsigned int *' invalid)
Avoid using atomic_*() names in QEMU's atomic.h since that namespace is
used by <stdatomic.h>. Prefix QEMU's APIs with 'q' so that atomic.h
and <stdatomic.h> can co-exist. I checked /usr/include on my machine and
searched GitHub for existing "qatomic_" users but there seem to be none.
This patch was generated using:
$ git grep -h -o '\<atomic\(64\)\?_[a-z0-9_]\+' include/qemu/atomic.h | \
sort -u >/tmp/changed_identifiers
$ for identifier in $(</tmp/changed_identifiers); do

Meson doesn't enjoy the same flexibility we have with Make in choosing
the include path. In particular the tracing headers are using
$(build_root)/$(<D).
In order to keep the include directives unchanged,
the simplest solution is to generate headers with patterns like
"trace/trace-audio.h" and place forwarding headers in the source tree
such that for example "audio/trace.h" includes "trace/trace-audio.h".
This patch is too ugly to be applied to the Makefiles now. It's only
a way to separate the changes to the tracing header files from the
Meson rewrite of the tracing logic.

This is a regression caused by commit d10e05f15d "tpm: Clean up error

continues to use error_report(), and we don't set an error when it

Similarly to commit 6fd5bef10b "qom: Make functions taking Error**
return bool, not void", let fw_cfg_add_from_generator() return a
boolean value, not void.
This allow to simplify parse_fw_cfg() and fixes the error handling
issue reported by Coverity (CID 1430396):
In parse_fw_cfg():
Variable assigned once to a constant guards dead code.
Local variable local_err is assigned only once, to a constant
value, making it effectively constant throughout its scope.
If this is not the intent, examine the logic to see if there
is a missing assignment that would make local_err not remain
constant.
It's the call of fw_cfg_add_from_generator():
Error *local_err = NULL;
fw_cfg_add_from_generator(fw_cfg, name, gen_id, errp);
if (local_err) {
error_propagate(errp, local_err);
return -1;
}
return 0;
If it fails, parse_fw_cfg() sets an error and returns 0, which is
wrong. Harmless, because the only caller passes &error_fatal.
