Convert the documentation to rST format, and present it to the user as:

The qemu-img rST document uses the new hxtool extension

The documentation of the various options and commands is rather
muddled, with some options being described inside the relevant
command description and some in a more general section near the start
of the manual. All the command synopses are replicated in the .hx
file and then again in the manual. A lot of text is also duplicated
in the qemu-img.c code for the help text. I have not attempted to
deal with any of this, but have simply transposed the existing
structure into rST.
As usual, there are some minor formatting changes but no
textual changes, except that as with one or two other conversions
I have dropped the 'see also' section since it's not very
informative and looks odd in the HTML.

The qemu-nbd documentation is currently in qemu-nbd.texi in Texinfo
format, which we present to the user as:
* a qemu-nbd manpage
* a section of the main qemu-doc HTML documentation
Convert the documentation to rST format, and present it to the user as:
* a qemu-nbd manpage
* part of the interop/ Sphinx manual
This follows the same pattern as commit 27a296fce9 did for the
qemu-ga manpage.
All the content of the old manpage is retained, except that I have
dropped the "This is free software; see the source for copying
conditions. There is NO warranty..." text that was in the old AUTHOR
section; Sphinx's manpage builder doesn't expect that much text in
the AUTHOR section, and since none of our other manpages have it it
seems easiest to delete it rather than try to figure out where else
in the manpage to put it.
The only other textual change is that I have had to give the
--nocache option its own description ("Equivalent to --cache=none")
because Sphinx doesn't have an equivalent of using item/itemx
to share a description between two options.
Some minor aspects of the formatting have changed, to suit what is
easiest for Sphinx to output. (The most notable is that Sphinx
option section option syntax doesn't support '--option foo=bar'
with bar underlined rather than bold, so we have to switch to
'--option foo=BAR' instead.)
The contents of qemu-option-trace.texi are now duplicated in
docs/interop/qemu-option-trace.rst.inc, until such time as we complete
the conversion of the other files which use it; since it has had only
3 changes in 3 years, this shouldn't be too awkward a burden.
(We use .rst.inc because if this file fragment has a .rst extension
then Sphinx complains about not seeing it in a toctree.)

Commit fe0480d6 and friends added BDRV_REQ_NO_FALLBACK as a way to
avoid wasting time on a preliminary write-zero request that will later
be rewritten by actual data, if it is known that the write-zero
request will use a slow fallback; but in doing so, could not optimize
for NBD. The NBD specification is now considering an extension that
will allow passing on those semantics; this patch updates the new
protocol bits and 'qemu-nbd --list' output to recognize the bit, as
well as the new errno value possible when using the new flag; while
upcoming patches will improve the client to use the feature when
present, and the server to advertise support for it.
The NBD spec recommends (but not requires) that ENOTSUP be avoided for
all but failures of a fast zero (the only time it is mandatory to
avoid an ENOTSUP failure is when fast zero is supported but not
requested during write zeroes; the questionable use is for ENOTSUP to
other actions like a normal write request). However, clients that get
an unexpected ENOTSUP will either already be treating it the same as
EINVAL, or may appreciate the extra bit of information. We were
equally loose for returning EOVERFLOW in more situations than
recommended by the spec, so if it turns out to be a problem in
practice, a later patch can tighten handling for both error codes.

[eblake: tweak commit message, also handle EOPNOTSUPP]
The NBD specification defines NBD_FLAG_CAN_MULTI_CONN, which can be
advertised when the server promises cache consistency between
simultaneous clients (basically, rules that determine what FUA and
flush from one client are able to guarantee for reads from another
client). When we don't permit simultaneous clients (such as qemu-nbd
without -e), the bit makes no sense; and for writable images, we
probably have a lot more work before we can declare that actions from
one client are cache-consistent with actions from another. But for
read-only images, where flush isn't changing any data, we might as
well advertise multi-conn support. What's more, advertisement of the
bit makes it easier for clients to determine if 'qemu-nbd -e' was in
use, where a second connection will succeed rather than hang until the
first client goes away.
This patch affects qemu as server in advertising the bit. We may want
to consider patches to qemu as client to attempt parallel connections
for higher throughput by spreading the load over those connections
when a server advertises multi-conn, but for now sticking to one
connection per nbd:// BDS is okay.

The vhost-user specification does not explain when
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ must be implemented. This may lead
implementors of vhost-user masters to believe that this protocol feature
is required for any device that has multiple virtqueues. That would be
a mistake since existing vhost-user slaves offer multiple virtqueues but
do not advertise VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ.
For example, a vhost-net device with one rx/tx queue pair is not
multiqueue. The slave does not need to advertise
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ. Therefore the master must assume it has these
virtqueues and cannot rely on askingt the slave how many virtqueues
exist.
Extend the specification to explain the different between true
multiqueue and regular devices with a fixed virtqueue layout.

Further, some versions of Sphinx can not apply custom lexers to "code"

make that change at this time as well.

The "Multiple queue support" section makes references to vhost-user-net
"queue pairs". This is confusing for two reasons:
1. This actually applies to all device types, not just vhost-user-net.
2. VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM returns the number of virtqueues, not the
number of queue pairs.
Reword the section so that the vhost-user-net specific part is relegated
to the very end: we acknowledge that vhost-user-net historically
automatically enabled the first queue pair.

Add a new vhost-user message to give a unix socket to a vhost-user
backend for GPU display updates.
Back when I started that work, I added a new GPU channel because the
vhost-user protocol wasn't bidirectional. Since then, there is a
vhost-user-slave channel for the slave to send requests to the master.
We could extend it with GPU messages. However, the GPU protocol is
quite orthogonal to vhost-user, thus I chose to have a new dedicated
channel.
See vhost-user-gpu.rst for the protocol details.

We already use (we didn't notice it) IN_USE flag for marking bitmap
metadata outdated, such as AUTO flag, which mirrors enabled/disabled
bitmaps. Now we are going to support bitmap resize, so it's good to
write IN_USE meaning with more details.

By default Sphinx wants to build a single manual at once.
For QEMU, this doesn't suit us, because we want to have
separate manuals for "Developer's Guide", "User Manual",
and so on, and we don't want to ship the Developer's Guide
to end-users. However, we don't want to completely duplicate
conf.py for each manual, and we'd like to continue to
support "build all docs in one run" for third-party sites
like readthedocs.org.
Make the top-level conf.py support two usage forms:
(1) as a common config file which is included by the conf.py
for each of QEMU's manuals: in this case sphinx-build is run
multiple times, once per subdirectory.
(2) as a top level conf file which will result in building all
the manuals into a single document: in this case sphinx-build is
run once, on the top-level docs directory.
Provide per-manual conf.py files and top level pages for
our first two manuals:
* QEMU Developer's Guide (docs/devel)
* QEMU System Emulation Management and Interoperability Guide
(docs/interop)

It can be useful to figure out which NBD protocol features are
exposed by a server, as well as what features a client will
take advantage of if available, for a given qemu release. It's
not always precise to base features on version numbers (thanks
to downstream backports), but any documentation is better than
making users search through git logs themselves.
This patch originally stemmed from a request to document that
pristine 3.0 has a known bug where NBD_OPT_LIST_META_CONTEXT
with 0 queries forgot to advertise an available
"qemu:dirty-bitmap" context, but documenting bugs like this (or
the fact that 3.0 also botched NBD_CMD_CACHE) gets to be too
much details, especially since buggy releases will be less
likely connection targets over time. Instead, I chose to just
remind users to check stable release branches.

When a QMP client sends in-band commands more quickly that we can
process them, we can either queue them without limit (QUEUE), drop
commands when the queue is full (DROP), or suspend receiving commands
when the queue is full (SUSPEND). None of them is ideal:
* QUEUE lets a misbehaving client make QEMU eat memory without bounds.
Not such a hot idea.
* With DROP, the client has to cope with dropped in-band commands. To
inform the client, we send a COMMAND_DROPPED event then. The event is
flawed by design in two ways: it's ambiguous (see commit d621cfe0a1),
and it brings back the "eat memory without bounds" problem.
* With SUSPEND, the client has to manage the flow of in-band commands to
keep the monitor available for out-of-band commands.
We currently DROP. Switch to SUSPEND.
Managing the flow of in-band commands to keep the monitor available for
out-of-band commands isn't really hard: just count the number of
"outstanding" in-band commands (commands sent minus replies received),
and if it exceeds the limit, hold back additional ones until it drops
below the limit again.
Note that we need to be careful pairing the suspend with a resume, or
else the monitor will hang, possibly forever. And here since we need to
make sure both:
(1) popping request from the req queue, and
(2) reading length of the req queue
will be in the same critical section, we let the pop function take the
corresponding queue lock when there is a request, then we release the
lock from the caller.

Although off_t permits up to 63 bits (8EB) of file offsets, in
practice, we're going to hit other limits first. Document some
of those limits in the qcow2 spec (some are inherent, others are
implementation choices of qemu), and how choice of cluster size
can influence some of the limits.
While we cannot map any uncompressed virtual cluster to any
address higher than 64 PB (56 bits) (due to the current L1/L2
field encoding stopping at bit 55), qemu's cap of 8M for the
refcount table can still access larger host addresses for some
combinations of large clusters and small refcount_order. For
comparison, ext4 with 4k blocks caps files at 16PB.
Another interesting limit: for compressed clusters, the L2 layout
requires an ever-smaller maximum host offset as cluster size gets
larger, down to a 512 TB maximum with 2M clusters. In particular,
note that with a cluster size of 8k or smaller, the L2 entry for
a compressed cluster could technically point beyond the 64PB mark,
but when you consider that with 8k clusters and refcount_order = 0,
you cannot access beyond 512T without exceeding qemu's limit of an
8M cap on the refcount table, it is unlikely that any image in the
wild has attempted to do so. To be safe, let's document that bits
beyond 55 in a compressed cluster must be 0.

Section "QGA Synchronization" specifies that sending "a raw 0xFF
sentinel byte" makes the server "reset its state and discard all
pending data prior to the sentinel." What actually happens there is a
lexical error, which will produce one or more error responses.
Moreover, it's not specific to QGA.
Create new section "Forcing the JSON parser into known-good state" to
document the technique properly. Rewrite section "QGA
Synchronization" to document just the other direction, i.e. command
guest-sync-delimited.
Section "Protocol Specification" mentions "synchronization bytes
(documented below)". Delete that.
While there, fix it not to claim '"Server" is QEMU itself', but
'"Server" is either QEMU or the QEMU Guest Agent'.

Commit cf869d5317 "qmp: support out-of-band (oob) execution" added a
general mechanism for command-independent arguments just for an
out-of-band flag:
The "control" key is introduced to store this extra flag. "control"
field is used to store arguments that are shared by all the commands,
rather than command specific arguments. Let "run-oob" be the first.
However, it failed to reject unknown members of "control". For
instance, in QMP command
{"execute": "query-name", "id": 42, "control": {"crap": true}}
"crap" gets silently ignored.
Instead of fixing this, revert the general "control" mechanism
(because YAGNI), and do it the way I initially proposed, with key
"exec-oob". Simpler code, simpler interface.
An out-of-band command
{"execute": "migrate-pause", "id": 42, "control": {"run-oob": true}}
becomes
{"exec-oob": "migrate-pause", "id": 42}

[Commit message typo fixed]
Commit cf869d5317 "qmp: support out-of-band (oob) execution" made
"id" mandatory for all commands when the client accepted capability
"oob". This is rather onerous when you play with QMP by hand, and
unnecessarily so: only out-of-band commands need an ID for reliable
matching of response to command.
Revert that part of commit cf869d5317 for now, but have documentation
advise on the need to use "id" with out-of-band commands.

* 3. QMP Examples

Add a schema that describes the different uses and properties of virtual
machine firmware.
Each firmware executable installed on a host system should come with at
least one JSON file that conforms to this schema. Each file informs the
management applications about
- the firmware's properties and one possible use case / feature set,
- configuration bits that are required to run the firmware binary.
In addition, define rules for management apps for picking the highest
priority firmware JSON file when multiple such files match the search
criteria.
