Build an aggregate set of smbios tables and an entry point structure.
Insert tables and entry point into fw_cfg respectively under
"etc/smbios/smbios-tables" and "etc/smbios/smbios-anchor".
Machine types <= 2.0 will for now continue using field-by-field
overrides to SeaBIOS defaults, but for machine types 2.1 and up we

When on KVM mode, enable x2apic by default on all CPU models.
Normally we try to keep the CPU model definitions as close as the real
CPUs as possible, but x2apic can be emulated by KVM without host CPU
support for x2apic, and it improves performance by reducing APIC access
overhead. x2apic emulation is available on KVM since 2009 (Linux
2.6.32-rc1), there's no reason for not enabling x2apic by default when
running KVM.

commit 04920fc0fa
loader: store FW CFG ROM files in RAM
RAM MRs including ROM files in FW CFGs are created
and named using the file basename.
This becomes problematic if these names are
supplied by user, since the basename might not
be unique.
There are two cases we care about:
- option-rom flag.
- option ROM for devices. This triggers e.g. when
using rombar=0.
At the moment we get an assert. E.g
qemu -option-rom /usr/share/ipxe/8086100e.rom -option-rom
/usr/share/ipxe.efi/8086100e.rom
RAMBlock "/rom@genroms/8086100e.rom" already registered, abort!
This is a regression from 1.6.
For now let's keep it simple and just avoid creating the
MRs in case of option ROMs.
when using 1.7 machine types, enable
option ROMs in RAM to match that version.

When we have 2 separate qdev devices that both create a qbus of the
same type without specifying a bus name or device name, we end up
with two buses of the same name, such as ide.0 on the Mac machines:
dev: macio-ide, id ""
bus: ide.0
type IDE
dev: macio-ide, id ""
bus: ide.0
type IDE
If we now spawn a device that connects to a ide.0 the last created
bus gets the device, with the first created bus inaccessible to the
command line.
After some discussion on IRC we concluded that the best quick fix way
forward for this is to make automated bus-class type based allocation
count a global counter. That's what this patch implements. With this
we instead get
dev: macio-ide, id ""
bus: ide.1
type IDE
dev: macio-ide, id ""
bus: ide.0
type IDE
on the example mentioned above.
This also means that if you did -device ...,bus=ide.0 you got a device
on the first bus (the last created one) before this patch and get that
device on the second one (the first created one) now. Breaks
migration unless you change bus=ide.0 to bus=ide.1 on the destination.
This is intended and makes the bus enumeration work as expected.
As per review request follows a list of otherwise affected boards and
the reasoning for the conclusion that they are ok:
target machine bus id times
------ ------- ------ -----
aarch64 n800 i2c-bus.0 2
aarch64 n810 i2c-bus.0 2
arm n800 i2c-bus.0 2
arm n810 i2c-bus.0 2
-> Devices are only created explicitly on one of the two buses, using
s->mpu->i2c[0], so no change to the guest.
aarch64 vexpress-a15 virtio-mmio-bus.0 4
aarch64 vexpress-a9 virtio-mmio-bus.0 4
aarch64 virt virtio-mmio-bus.0 32
arm vexpress-a15 virtio-mmio-bus.0 4
arm vexpress-a9 virtio-mmio-bus.0 4
arm virt virtio-mmio-bus.0 32
-> Makes -device bus= work for all virtio-mmio buses. Breaks
migration. Workaround for migration from old to new: specify
virtio-mmio-bus.4 or .32 respectively rather than .0 on the
destination.
aarch64 xilinx-zynq-a9 usb-bus.0 2
arm xilinx-zynq-a9 usb-bus.0 2
mips64el fulong2e usb-bus.0 2

We used to try and make addresses aligned so they are easier to cover

Keep old memory layout for (a) old machine types and (b) in case all
memory fits below 4G and thus we don't have to split RAM into pieces
in the first place. The later makes sure this change doesn't take

So, with i440fx and up to 3.5 GB of memory, all of it will be mapped

Owning to some different hardware design, piix and q35 need
different compat. So making them diverge.
On q35, IRQ2/8 can be reserved for hpet timer 0/1. And pin 16~23
can be assigned to hpet as guest chooses. So we introduce intcap
property to do that.
Consider the compat and piix/q35, we finally have the following
value for intcap: For piix, hpet's intcap is hard coded as IRQ2.
For pc-q35-1.7 and earlier, we use IRQ2 for compat reason. Otherwise
IRQ2, IRQ8, and IRQ16~23 are allowed.

While this should never affect the PC system which at the moment always

This causes two slight backwards-incompatibilities between "-M pc-1.5"
and 1.5's "-M pc":
(1) a fw_cfg file is removed with this patch. This is only a problem
if migration stops the virtual machine exactly during fw_cfg enumeration.
(2) after migration, a VM created without an explicit "-device pvpanic"
will stop reporting panics to management.
The first problem only occurs if migration is done at a very, very
early point (and I'm not sure it can happen in practice for reasonable-size
VMs, since it will likely take more time to send the RAM to destination,
than it will take for BIOS to scan fw_cfg).
The second problem only occurs if the guest panics _and_ has a guest
driver _and_ management knows to look at the crash event, so it is
mostly theoretical at this point in time.
Thus keep the code simple, and pretend it was never broken.

This adds C code for generating ACPI tables at runtime,
imported from seabios git tree
commit 51684b7ced75fb76776e8ee84833fcfb6ecf12dd
Although ACPI tables come from a system BIOS on real hw,
it makes sense that the ACPI tables are coupled with the
virtual machine, since they have to abstract the x86 machine to
the OS's.
This is widely desired as a way to avoid the churn
and proliferation of QEMU-specific interfaces
associated with ACPI tables in bios code.
Notes:
As BIOS can reprogram devices prior to loading
ACPI tables, we pre-format ACPI tables but defer loading
hardware configuration there until tables are loaded.
The code structure was intentionally kept as close
to the seabios original as possible, to simplify
comparison and making sure we didn't lose anything
in translation.
Minor code duplication results, to help ensure there are no functional
regressions, I think it's better to merge it like this and do more code
changes in follow-up patches.
Cross-version compatibility concerns have been addressed:
ACPI tables are exposed to guest as FW_CFG entries.
When running with -M 1.5 and older, this patch disables ACPI
table generation, and doesn't expose ACPI
tables to guest.
As table content is likely to change over time,
the following measures are taken to simplify
cross-version migration:
- All tables besides the RSDP are packed in a single FW CFG entry.
This entry size is currently 23K. We round it up to 64K
to avoid too much churn there.
- Tables are placed in special ROM blob (not mapped into guest memory)
which is automatically migrated together with the guest, same
as BIOS code.
- Offsets where hardware configuration is loaded in ACPI tables
are also migrated, this is in case future ACPI changes make us
rearrange the tables in memory.
This patch reuses some code from SeaBIOS, which was originally under
LGPLv2 and then relicensed to GPLv3 or LGPLv3, in QEMU under GPLv2+. This
relicensing has been acked by all contributors that had contributed to the
code since the v2->v3 relicense. ACKs approving the v2+ relicensing are

This patch partially implements the e1000 interrupt mitigation mechanisms.
Using a single QEMUTimer, it emulates the ITR register (which is the newer
mitigation register, recommended by Intel) and approximately emulates
RADV and TADV registers. TIDV and RDTR register functionalities are not
emulated (RDTR is only used to validate RADV, according to the e1000 specs).
RADV, TADV, TIDV and RDTR registers make up the older e1000 mitigation
mechanism and would need a timer each to be completely emulated. However,
a single timer has been used in order to reach a good compromise between
emulation accuracy and simplicity/efficiency.
The implemented mechanism can be enabled/disabled specifying the command
line e1000-specific boolean parameter "mitigation", e.g.
qemu-system-x86_64 -device e1000,mitigation=on,... ...
For more information, see the Software developer's manual at
http://download.intel.com/design/network/manuals/8254x_GBe_SDM.pdf.
Interrupt mitigation boosts performance when the guest suffers from
an high interrupt rate (i.e. receiving short UDP packets at high packet
rate). For some numerical results see the following link

except "pseries" and "moxiesim", even though very few boards actually
care for boot order, and "cad" makes sense for even fewer.
Machines that care:
* pc and its variants
Accept up to three letters 'a', 'b' (undocumented alias for 'a'),
'c', 'd' and 'n'. Reject all others (fatal with -boot).
* nseries (n800, n810)
Check whether order starts with 'n'. Silently ignored otherwise.
* prep, g3beige, mac99
Extract the first character the machine understands (subset of
'a'..'f'). Silently ignored otherwise.
* spapr
Accept an arbitrary string (vl.c restricts it to contain only
'a'..'p', no duplicates).
* sun4[mdc]
Use the first character. Silently ignored otherwise.
Strip characters these machines ignore from their default boot order.
For all other machines, remove the unused default boot order
alltogether.
Note that my rename of QEMUMachine member boot_order to
default_boot_order and QEMUMachineInitArgs member boot_device to
boot_order has a welcome side effect: it makes every use of boot
orders visible in this patch, for easy review.

All callers always use the same values (get_system_memory(),
get_system_io()), so the parameters are pointless.
If one day we decide to eliminate get_system_memory() and
get_system_io(), we will be able to do that more easily by adding the
values to struct QEMUMachineInitArgs.

Making the older compat functions call the newer compat functions at the
beginning allows the older functions undo what's done by newer compat
functions. e.g.: pc_compat_1_4() will be able to call pc_compat_1_5()
and then set has_pvpanic=false.

The pc_init_pci_1_2()/pc_init_pci_1_0() split was made on commit
6fd028f64f, in preparation for commit
9953f8822c. The latter was reverted, so there's
no reason to keep two separate functions that do exactly the same, anymore.

ROM files that are put in FW CFG are copied to guest ram, by BIOS, but
they are not backed by RAM so they don't get migrated.
Each time we change two bytes in such a ROM this breaks cross-version
migration: since we can migrate after BIOS has read the first byte but
before it has read the second one, getting an inconsistent state.
Future-proof this by creating, for each such ROM,
an MR serving as the backing store.
This MR is never mapped into guest memory, but it's registered
as RAM so it's migrated with the guest.
Naturally, this only helps for -M 1.7 and up, older machine types
will still have the cross-version migration bug.
Luckily the race window for the problem to trigger is very small,
which is also likely why we didn't notice the cross-version
migration bug in testing yet.

This patch is based on Hu Tao's:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-08/msg00124.html
No need to hard-code pvpanic as part of the machine.
It can be added with "-device pvpanic" from command line (The next patch).
Anyway, for backport compatibility it is still part of 1.5
machine.

With the new semantics of pc_sysfw (no -pflash implies "old-style" ROM setup,
-pflash implies "new-style" ROM setup), there is no need anymore for a compat
property. Old machines simply will never use -pflash, and thus will always
use old-style setup.

The BIOS that we ship in 1.6 does not use pci info
from host (yet). Several issues turned up
(e.g. around winXP boot crashes). So it's safest to disable that
interface for 1.6 machine types for now, leave it on for 1.7
as we have enough time to fix issues if any.

It turns out that some 32 bit windows guests crash
if 64 bit PCI hole size is >2G.
Limit it to 2G for piix and q35 by default.
User may override default 64-bit PCI hole size by
using "pci-hole64-size" property.
Examples:
-global i440FX-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=4G
-global q35-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=4G
