In the real SMP hardware topology world, it's much more likely that
we have high cores-per-socket counts and few sockets totally. While
the current preference of sockets over cores in smp parsing results
in a virtual cpu topology with low cores-per-sockets counts and a
large number of sockets, which is just contrary to the real world.
Given that it is better to make the virtual cpu topology be more
reflective of the real world and also for the sake of compatibility,
we start to prefer cores over sockets over threads in smp parsing
since machine type 6.2 for different arches.
In this patch, a boolean "smp_prefer_sockets" is added, and we only
enable the old preference on older machines and enable the new one
since type 6.2 for all arches by using the machine compat mechanism.

Currently we directly calculate the omitted cpus based on the given
incomplete collection of parameters. This makes some cmdlines like:
-smp maxcpus=16
-smp sockets=2,maxcpus=16
-smp sockets=2,dies=2,maxcpus=16
-smp sockets=2,cores=4,maxcpus=16
not work. We should probably set the value of cpus to match maxcpus
if it's omitted, which will make above configs start to work.
So the calculation logic of cpus/maxcpus after this patch will be:
When both maxcpus and cpus are omitted, maxcpus will be calculated
from the given parameters and cpus will be set equal to maxcpus.
When only one of maxcpus and cpus is given then the omitted one
will be set to its counterpart's value. Both maxcpus and cpus may
be specified, but maxcpus must be equal to or greater than cpus.
Note: change in this patch won't affect any existing working cmdlines
but allows more incomplete configs to be valid.

In the SMP configuration, we should either provide a topology
parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just
omit it and QEMU will compute the missing value.
The users shouldn't provide a configuration with any parameter
of it specified as zero (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) which could
possibly cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So we
deprecate this kind of configurations since 6.2 by adding the
explicit sanity check.

Because SGX EPC is enumerated through CPUID, EPC "devices" need to be
realized prior to realizing the vCPUs themselves, i.e. long before
generic devices are parsed and realized. From a virtualization
perspective, the CPUID aspect also means that EPC sections cannot be
hotplugged without paravirtualizing the guest kernel (hardware does
not support hotplugging as EPC sections must be locked down during
pre-boot to provide EPC's security properties).
So even though EPC sections could be realized through the generic
-devices command, they need to be created much earlier for them to
actually be usable by the guest. Place all EPC sections in a
contiguous block, somewhat arbitrarily starting after RAM above 4g.
Ensuring EPC is in a contiguous region simplifies calculations, e.g.
device memory base, PCI hole, etc..., allows dynamic calculation of the
total EPC size, e.g. exposing EPC to guests does not require -maxmem,
and last but not least allows all of EPC to be enumerated in a single
ACPI entry, which is expected by some kernels, e.g. Windows 7 and 8.
The new compound properties command for sgx like below:
......
-object memory-backend-epc,id=mem1,size=28M,prealloc=on \
-object memory-backend-epc,id=mem2,size=10M \
-M sgx-epc.0.memdev=mem1,sgx-epc.1.memdev=mem2

The alt_grab and ctrl_grab parameter of the -display sdl option prevent
the QAPIfication of the "sdl" part of the -display option, so we should
eventually remove them. And since this feature is also rather niche anyway,
we should not clutter the top-level option list with these, so let's
also deprecate the "-alt-grab" and the "-ctrl-grab" options while we're
at it.
Once the deprecation period of "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" is over, we
then can finally switch the -display sdl option to use QAPI internally,
too.

The -display sdl option is not using QAPI internally yet, and uses hand-
crafted parsing instead (see parse_display() in vl.c), which is quite
ugly, since most of the other code is using the QAPIfied DisplayOption
already. Unfortunately, the "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" use underscores in
their names which has recently been forbidden in new QAPI code, so
a straight conversion is not possible. While we could add some exceptions
to the QAPI schema parser for this, the way these parameters have been
designed was maybe a bad idea anyway: First, it's not possible to enable
both parameters at the same time, thus instead of two boolean parameters
it would be better to have only one multi-choice parameter instead.
Second, the naming is also somewhat unfortunate since the "alt_grab"
parameter is not about the ALT key, but rather about the left SHIFT key
that has to be used additionally when the parameter is enabled.
So instead of trying to QAPIfy "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab", let's rather
introduce an alternative to these parameters instead, a new parameter
called "grab-mod" which can either be set to "lshift-lctrl-lalt" or to
"rctrl". In case we ever want to support additional modes later, we can
then also simply extend the list of supported strings here.

Passing arguments to plugins had to be done through "arg=<argname>".
This is redundant and introduces confusion especially when the argument
has a name and value (e.g. `-plugin plugin_name,arg="argname=argvalue"`).
This allows passing plugin arguments directly e.g:
`-plugin plugin_name,argname=argvalue`
For now, passing arguments through "arg=" is still supports but outputs
a deprecation warning.
Also, this commit makes boolean arguments passed to plugins in the
`argname=on|off` form instead of the deprecated short-boolean form.

The `aio-max-batch` parameter will be propagated to AIO engines
and it will be used to control the maximum number of queued requests.
When there are in queue a number of requests equal to `aio-max-batch`,
the engine invokes the system call to forward the requests to the kernel.
This parameter allows us to control the maximum batch size to reduce
the latency that requests might accumulate while queued in the AIO
engine queue.
If `aio-max-batch` is equal to 0 (default value), the AIO engine will
use its default maximum batch size value.

The -smp option help is peculiarly specific about mentioning the CPU
upper limits, but these are wrong. The "PC" target has varying max
CPU counts depending on the machine type picked. Notes about guest
OS limits are inappropriate for QEMU docs. There are way too many
machine types for it to be practical to mention actual limits, and
some limits are even modified by downstream distribtions. Thus it
is better to remove the specific limits entirely.
The CPU topology reporting is also not neccessarily specific to the
PC platform and descriptions around the rules of usage are somewhat

Type 41 defines the attributes of devices that are onboard. The
original intent was to imply the BIOS had some level of control over
the enablement of the associated devices.
If network devices are present in this table, by default, udev will
name the corresponding interfaces enoX, X being the instance number.
Without such information, udev will fallback to using the PCI ID and
this usually gives ens3 or ens4. This can be a bit annoying as the
name of the network card may depend on the order of options and may
change if a new PCI device is added earlier on the commande line.
Being able to provide SMBIOS type 41 entry ensure the name of the
interface won't change and helps the user guess the right name without
booting a first time.
This can be invoked with:
$QEMU -netdev user,id=internet
-device virtio-net-pci,mac=50:54:00:00:00:42,netdev=internet,id=internet-dev \
-smbios type=41,designation='Onboard LAN',instance=1,kind=ethernet,pcidev=internet-dev
The PCI segment is assumed to be 0. This should hold true for most
cases.

New option -compat lets you configure what to do when deprecated
interfaces get used. This is intended for testing users of the
management interfaces. It is experimental.
-compat deprecated-input=<input-policy> configures what to do when
deprecated input is received. Input policy can be "accept" (accept
silently), or "reject" (reject the request with an error).
-compat deprecated-output=<out-policy> configures what to do when
deprecated output is sent. Output policy can be "accept" (pass on
unchanged), or "hide" (filter out the deprecated parts).
Default is "accept". Policies other than "accept" are implemented
later in this series.
For now, -compat covers only syntactic aspects of QMP, i.e. stuff
tagged with feature 'deprecated'. We may want to extend it to cover
semantic aspects, CLI, and experimental features.
Note that there is no good way for management application to detect

The possible choices for panic, reset and watchdog actions are inconsistent.
"-action panic=poweroff" should be renamed to "-action panic=shutdown"
on the command line. This is because "-action panic=poweroff" and
"-action watchdog=poweroff" have slightly different semantics, the first
does an unorderly exit while the second goes through qemu_cleanup(). With
this change, -no-shutdown would not have to change "-action panic=pause"
"pause", just like it does not have to change the reset action.
"-action reboot=none" should be renamed to "-action reboot=reset".
This should be self explanatory, since for example "-action panic=none"
lets the guest proceed without taking any action.

The "XVP" (Xen VNC Proxy) extension defines a mechanism for a VNC client
to issue power control requests to trigger graceful shutdown, reboot, or
hard reset.
This option is not enabled by default, since we cannot assume that users
with VNC access implicitly have administrator access to the guest OS.
Thus is it enabled with a boolean "power-control" option e.g.
-vnc :1,power-control=on
While, QEMU can easily support shutdown and reset, there's no easy way
to wire up reboot support at this time. In theory it could be done by
issuing a shutdown, followed by a reset, but there's no convenient
wiring for such a pairing in QEMU. It also isn't possible to have the
VNC server directly talk to QEMU guest agent, since the agent chardev is
typically owned by an external mgmt app.

The current default action of pausing a guest after a panic event
is received leaves the responsibility to resume guest execution to the
management layer. The reasons for this behavior are discussed here:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/52148F88.5000509@redhat.com/
However, in instances like the case of older guests (Linux and
Windows) using a pvpanic device but missing support for the
PVPANIC_CRASHLOADED event, and Windows guests using the hv-crash
enlightenment, it is desirable to allow the guests to continue
running after sending a PVPANIC_PANICKED event. This allows such
guests to proceed to capture a crash dump and automatically reboot
without intervention of a management layer.
Add an option to avoid stopping a VM after a panic event is received,
by passing:
-action panic=none
in the command line arguments, or during runtime by using an upcoming
QMP command.

-action shutdown=poweroff|pause
-action watchdog=reset|shutdown|poweroff|pause|debug|none|inject-nmi

The documentation for the icount documentation has some minor issues:

* the synopsis line for the documentation has drifted out of sync
with the synopsis line in the DEF() macro (used for "-help" output)
* the synopsis line in the DEF() macro is missing a "][" between
the sleep= part and the rr= part
* the synopsis line doesn't indicate that rrsnapshot is an optional
part of the rr=mode,rrfile=filename subgrouping
* we don't document that sleep=on can't be used with shift=auto
or align=on
* the rr option description had some minor grammar and formatting
errors and was a bit terse
* in commit f1f4b57e88 in 2015 the documentation of the sleep=
suboption got added between the two paragraphs defining general
behaviour of the icount option. This meant that the second
paragraph talking about the behaviour of "this option" reads as
if it's talking about sleep=on, when it's really describing -icount
as a whole. The paragraph is better moved back up to above the
sleep= section.
* the summary text displayed in "-help" output didn't mention

Normally these information can be fetched from host smbios.
Strictly speaking, the "max speed" and "current speed" in type 4

"max speed" identifies a capability of the system, and "current speed"
identifies the processor's speed at boot (see smbios spec), but some

On the host OS, various aspects of TLS operation are configurable.
In particular it is possible for the sysadmin to control the TLS
cipher/protocol algorithms that applications are permitted to use.
* Any given crypto library has a built-in default priority list
defined by the distro maintainer of the library package (or by
upstream).
* The "crypto-policies" RPM (or equivalent host OS package)
provides a config file such as "/etc/crypto-policies/config",
where the sysadmin can set a high level (library-independent)
policy.
The "update-crypto-policies --set" command (or equivalent) is
used to translate the global policy to individual library
representations, producing files such as
"/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/*.config". The generated files,
if present, are loaded by the various crypto libraries to
override their own built-in defaults.
For example, the GNUTLS library may read
"/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/gnutls.config".
* A management application (or the QEMU user) may overide the
system-wide crypto-policies config via their own config, if
they need to diverge from the former.
Thus the priority order is "QEMU user config" > "crypto-policies
system config" > "library built-in config".
Introduce the "tls-cipher-suites" object for exposing the ordered
list of permitted TLS cipher suites from the host side to the
guest firmware, via fw_cfg. The list is represented as an array
of bytes.
The priority at which the host-side policy is retrieved is given
by the "priority" property of the new object type. For example,
"priority=@SYSTEM" may be used to refer to
"/etc/crypto-policies/back-ends/gnutls.config" (given that QEMU
uses GNUTLS).
The firmware uses the IANA_TLS_CIPHER array for configuring
guest-side TLS, for example in UEFI HTTPS Boot.

This commit contains hand-written fixes for some issues with the
autogenerated rST fragments in qemu-options.hx:
* Sphinx complains about the UTF-8 art table in the documentation of
the -drive option. Replace it with a proper rST format table.
* rST does not like definition list entries with no actual
definition, but it is possible to work around this by putting a
single escaped literal space as the definition line.
* The "-g widthxheight" option documentation suffers particularly
badly from losing the distinction between italics and fixed-width
as a result of the auto conversion, so put it back in again.
* The script missed some places that use the |qemu_system| etc
macros and need to be marked up as parsed-literal blocks.
* The script autogenerated an expanded out version of the
contents of qemu-option-trace.texi; replace it with an
qemu-option-trace.rst.inc include.
This is sufficient that we can enable inclusion of the
option documentation from invocation.rst.

The SPARC and PPC targets currently have a fragment of target-specific
information about the -g and -prom options which would be better placed
as part of the general documentation of those options in qemu-options.hx.
Move the relevant information to those locations.
SPARC also has a bit of text about the -M option which is out of
date and provides no useful information over the generic documentation
of that option, so just delete it.
The motivation here is again to avoid having to awkwardly include
this text into the rST version of the qemu.1 manpage.

Currently the per-target documentation for those targets that
implement semihosting includes a bit of text that goes into both the

text is redundant with the earlier generic option description of the

to create a lot of stub include files to include into the rST

The default NIC model for QEMU varies per machine type, and is liable to
change across machine type versions. Documenting e1000 NIC as the
default for PC/i386 is thus misleading to users at best. In particular
the PC q35 machine type switched to use e1000e, but only in machine
type versions after 2.11.
Rather than try to explain which NIC model is used for each machine
type version, remove mention of e1000 as the default, and steer users
towards always specifying their desired model.

The qemu-block-drivers documentation is currently in
docs/qemu-block-drivers.texi in Texinfo format, which we present
to the user as:
* a qemu-block-drivers 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-block-drivers manpage
* part of the system/ Sphinx manual
This follows the same pattern we've done for qemu-ga and qemu-nbd.
We have to drop a cross-reference from the documentation of the
-cdrom option back to the qemu-block-drivers documentation, since
they're no longer within the same texinfo document.
As noted in a comment, the manpage output is slightly compromised
due to limitations in Sphinx. In an ideal world, the HTML output
would have the various headings like 'Disk image file formats'
as top-level section headings (which then appear in the overall
system manual's table-of-contents), and it would not have the
section headings which make sense only for the manpage like
'synopsis', 'description', and 'see also'. Unfortunately, the
mechanism Sphinx provides for restricting pieces of documentation
is limited to the point of being flawed: the 'only::' directive
is implemented as a filter that is applied at a very late stage
in the document processing pipeline, rather than as an early
equivalent of an #ifdef. This means that Sphinx's process of
identifying which section heading markup styles are which levels
of heading gets confused if the 'only::' directive contains
section headings which would affect the heading-level of a
later heading. I have opted to prioritise making the HTML format
look better, with the compromise being that in the manpage
the 'Disk image file formats' &c headings are top-level headings
rather than being sub-headings under the traditional 'Description'
top-level section title.

It's been deprecated since QEMU v3.1. We've explicitly asked in the
deprecation message that people should speak up on qemu-devel in case
they are still actively using the bluetooth part of QEMU, but nobody
ever replied that they are really still using it.
I've tried it on my own to use this bluetooth subsystem for one of my
guests, but I was also not able to get it running anymore: When I was
trying to pass-through a real bluetooth device, either the guest did
not see the device at all, or the guest crashed.
Even worse for the emulated device: When running
qemu-system-x86_64 -bt device:keyboard
QEMU crashes once you hit a key.
So it seems like the bluetooth stack is not only neglected, it is
completely bitrotten, as far as I can tell. The only attention that
this code got during the past years were some CVEs that have been
spotted there. So this code is a burden for the developers, without
any real benefit anymore. Time to remove it.
Note: hw/bt/Kconfig only gets cleared but not removed here yet.
Otherwise there is a problem with the *-softmmu/config-devices.mak.d
dependency files - they still contain a reference to this file which
gets evaluated first on some build hosts, before the file gets
properly recreated. To avoid breaking these builders, we still need
the file around for some time. It will get removed in a couple of
weeks instead.

This will allow us to disable mixeng when we use a decent backend.
Disabling mixeng have a few advantages:
* we no longer convert the audio output from one format to another, when
the underlying audio system would just convert it to a third format.
We no longer convert, only the underlying system, when needed.
* the underlying system probably has better resampling and sample format
converting methods anyway...
* we may support formats that the mixeng currently does not support (S24
or float samples, more than two channels)
* when using an audio server (like pulseaudio) different sound card
outputs will show up as separate streams, even if we use only one
backend
Disadvantages:
* audio capturing no longer works (wavcapture, and vnc audio extension)
* some backends only support a single playback stream or very picky
about the audio format. In this case we can't disable mixeng.
Originally thw two main use cases of the disabled option was: using
unsupported audio formats (5.1 and 7.1 audio) and having different
pulseaudio streams per audio frontend. Since we can have multiple
-audiodevs, the latter is not that important, so currently you only need
this option if you want to use 5.1 or 7.1 audio (implemented in a later

'warn' (default): Only log an error message (once) on host if more than one
device is shared by same export, except of that just ignore this config
error though. This is the default behaviour for not breaking existing
installations implying that they really know what they are doing.
'forbid': Like 'warn', but except of just logging an error this
also denies access of guest to additional devices.
'remap': Allows to share more than one device per export by remapping
inodes from host to guest appropriately. To support multiple devices on the
9p share, and avoid qid path collisions we take the device id as input to
generate a unique QID path. The lowest 48 bits of the path will be set
equal to the file inode, and the top bits will be uniquely assigned based
on the top 16 bits of the inode and the device id.

Using the UUID that qemu generates probably isn't the best thing
to do, allow it to be passed in via properties, and use QemuUUID
for the type.
If the UUID is not set, return an unsupported command error. This
way we are not providing an all-zero (or randomly generated) GUID
to the IPMI user. This lets the host fall back to the other
method of using the get device id command to determind the BMC
being accessed.

In our documentation, we use a mix of "$QEMU", "qemu-system-i386" and
"qemu-system-x86_64" when we give examples to the users how to run
QEMU. Some more consistency would be good here. Also some distributions
use different names for the QEMU binary (e.g. "qemu-kvm" in RHEL), so
providing more flexibility here would also be good. Thus let's define
some variables for the names of the QEMU command and use those in the
documentation instead: @value{qemu_system} for generic examples, and
@value{qemu_system_x86} for examples that only work with the x86
binaries.

When QEMU exposes a VirtIO-RNG device to the guest, that device needs a
source of entropy, and that source needs to be "non-blocking", like
`/dev/urandom`. However, currently QEMU defaults to the problematic
`/dev/random`, which on Linux is "blocking" (as in, it waits until
sufficient entropy is available).
Why prefer `/dev/urandom` over `/dev/random`?
---------------------------------------------
The man pages of urandom(4) and random(4) state:
"The /dev/random device is a legacy interface which dates back to a
time where the cryptographic primitives used in the implementation
of /dev/urandom were not widely trusted. It will return random
bytes only within the estimated number of bits of fresh noise in the
entropy pool, blocking if necessary. /dev/random is suitable for
applications that need high quality randomness, and can afford
indeterminate delays."
Further, the "Usage" section of the said man pages state:
"The /dev/random interface is considered a legacy interface, and
/dev/urandom is preferred and sufficient in all use cases, with the
exception of applications which require randomness during early boot
time; for these applications, getrandom(2) must be used instead,
because it will block until the entropy pool is initialized.
"If a seed file is saved across reboots as recommended below (all
major Linux distributions have done this since 2000 at least), the
output is cryptographically secure against attackers without local
root access as soon as it is reloaded in the boot sequence, and
perfectly adequate for network encryption session keys. Since reads
from /dev/random may block, users will usually want to open it in
nonblocking mode (or perform a read with timeout), and provide some
sort of user notification if the desired entropy is not immediately
available."
And refer to random(7) for a comparison of `/dev/random` and
`/dev/urandom`.
What about other OSes?
----------------------
`/dev/urandom` exists and works on OS-X, FreeBSD, DragonFlyBSD, NetBSD
and OpenBSD, which cover all the non-Linux platforms we explicitly
support, aside from Windows.
On Windows `/dev/random` doesn't work either so we don't regress.
This is actually another argument in favour of using the newly
proposed 'rng-builtin' backend by default, as that will work on
Windows.
- - -
Given the above, change the entropy source for VirtIO-RNG device to
`/dev/urandom`.

When a file supporting DAX is used as vNVDIMM backend, mmap it with
MAP_SYNC flag in addition which can ensure file system metadata
synced in each guest writes to the backend file, without other QEMU
actions (e.g., periodic fsync() by QEMU).
Current, We have below different possible use cases:
1. pmem=on is set, shared=on is set, MAP_SYNC supported:
a: backend is a dax supporting file.
- MAP_SYNC will active.
b: backend is not a dax supporting file.
- mmap will trigger a warning. then MAP_SYNC flag will be ignored
2. The rest of cases:
- we will never pass the MAP_SYNC to mmap2
