This is mostly for readability of the code. Let's make it clear which
callers can create an implicit monitor when the chardev is muxed.
This will also enforce a safer behaviour, as we don't really support
creating monitor anywhere/anytime at the moment. Add an assert() to
make sure the programmer explicitely wanted that behaviour.
There are documented cases, such as: -serial/-parallel/-virtioconsole
and to less extent -debugcon.
Less obvious and questionable ones are -gdb, SLIRP -guestfwd and Xen
console. Add a FIXME note for those, but keep the support for now.
Other qemu_chr_new() callers either have a fixed parameter/filename
string or do not need it, such as -qtest:
* qtest.c: qtest_init()
Afaik, only used by tests/libqtest.c, without mux. I don't think we
support it outside of qemu testing: drop support for implicit mux
monitor (qemu_chr_new() call: no implicit mux now).
* hw/
All with literal @filename argument that doesn't enable mux monitor.
* tests/
All with @filename argument that doesn't enable mux monitor.
On a related note, the list of monitor creation places:
- the chardev creators listed above: all from command line (except
perhaps Xen console?)
- -gdb & hmp gdbserver will create a "GDB monitor command" chardev
that is wired to an HMP monitor.
- -mon command line option
From this short study, I would like to think that a monitor may only
be created in the main thread today, though I remain skeptical :)

With this flag, kvm allows guest to control host CPU power state. This
increases latency for other processes using same host CPU in an
unpredictable way, but if decreases idle entry/exit times for the
running VCPU, so to use it QEMU needs a hint about whether host CPU is
overcommitted, hence the flag name.
Follow-up patches will expose this capability to guest
(using mwait leaf).

We currently have got three ways of turning on the HAX accelerator:
"-machine accel=hax", "-accel hax" and "-enable-hax". That's really
confusing and overloaded. Since "-accel" is our preferred way to enable
an accelerator nowadays, and "-accel hax" is even less to type than
"-enable-hax", let's deprecate the "-enable-hax" option now.
Note: While "-enable-kvm" is available since a long time and can hardly be
removed since it is used in a lot of upper layer tools and scripts, the
"-enable-hax" option is still rather new and not very widespread yet, so
I think that it should be OK if we remove this in a couple of releases again
(we'll see whether someone complains after seeing the deprecation message -
then we could still reconsider to keep it if there a well-founded reasons).

some users when using --daemonize expect that QEMU will parse CLI options,
initialize VM and only then complete daemonzation by signalling lead
process to exit and start listening on monitor socket. So users treat
parent process exit as sync point to connect to QEMU's monitor.
That however doesn't work when --preconfig options is used, since it
provides monitor before completing daemonization and expects user to
issue exit-preconfig command when additional configuration via monitor
is finished. We also can't move completing daemonization before
preconfig monitor becomes available, since that would imply:
* partially loosing ability to configure QEMU instance in --preconfig
mode since QEMU might drop privileges, chroot and do other things
when daemonization is completed
* lead to loss of error messages in case they would happen after
daemonization
Be proactive now and make options mutually exclusive, so users would
get clear error message instead of waiting for lead process exit
indefinitely before connecting to monitor.
PS:
In case someone would come up with usecase where both options should
be enabled at the same time we could drop this restriction as far
as daemonization point is left where it is now (os_setup_post).

After 047f7038f5 it is possible for event loop to run two
times. First time whilst parsing command line options (the idea
is to bring up monitor early so that management applications can
tweak config before machine is initialized). And the second time
is after everything is set up (this is the usual place). In both
cases the event loop is called as main_loop_wait(nonblocking =
false) which causes the event loop to block until at least one
event occurred.
Now, consider that somebody (i.e. libvirt) calls us with
-daemonize. This operation is split in two steps. The main()
calls os_daemonize() which fork()-s and then waits in read()
until child notifies it via write():
/qemu.git $ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -S -daemonize \
-no-user-config -nodefaults -nographic
main(): child:
os_daemonize():
read(pipe[0])
main_loop():
main_loop_wait(false)
os_setup_post():
write(pipe[1])
main_loop():
main_loop_wait(false)
Here it can be clearly seen that main() does not exit until an
event occurs, but at the same time nobody will touch the monitor
socket until their exec("qemu-system-*") finishes. So the whole
thing deadlocks.
The solution is to not call main_loop_wait() unless --preconfig was
specified (in which case caller knows they must connect to the
socket before exec() finishes).
Patch also fixes hang when -nodefaults option is used, which were
causing QEMU hang in the early main_loop_wait() indefinitely by
the same means (not calling main_loop_wait() unless --preconfig
is present on CLI)

This option allows pausing QEMU in the new RUN_STATE_PRECONFIG state,
allowing the configuration of QEMU from QMP before the machine jumps
into board initialization code of machine_run_board_init()
The intent is to allow management to query machine state and additionally
configure it using previous query results within one QEMU instance
(i.e. eliminate the need to start QEMU twice, 1st to query board specific
parameters and 2nd for actual VM start using query results for
additional parameters).
The new option complements -S option and could be used with or without
it. The difference is that -S pauses QEMU when the machine is completely
initialized with all devices wired up and ready to execute guest code
(QEMU needs only to unpause VCPUs to let guest execute its code),
while the "preconfig" option pauses QEMU early before board specific init
callback (machine_run_board_init) is executed and allows the configuration
of machine parameters which will be used by board init code.
When early introspection/configuration is done, command 'exit-preconfig'
should be used to exit RUN_STATE_PRECONFIG and transition to the next
requested state (i.e. if -S is used then QEMU will pause the second
time when board/device initialization is completed or start guest
execution if -S isn't provided on CLI)
PS:
Initially 'preconfig' is planned to be used for configuring numa
topology depending on board specified possible cpus layout.

The dangling remainder of the -tdf option revealed a deficiency in our
option parsing: Options that have been declared, but are not supported
in the switch-case statement in vl.c and not handled in the OS-specifc
os_parse_cmd_args() functions are currently silently ignored. We should
rather tell the users that they specified something that we can not
handle, so let's print an error message and exit instead.

The qemu-doc already states that this option is only maintained for
backward compatibility and "-device virtconsole" should be used
instead. So let's take the next step and mark this option officially
as deprecated.

We will be able to have memory devices (e.g. virtio) not requiring the
slot parameter (e.g. not exposed via ACPI). We still need the maxmem
parameter to setup a proper memory region for device memory. And some
architectures (e.g. s390x) will have to set up the maximum possible guest
address space size based on the maxmem parameter.
As far as I can see, all code (pc.c,spapr.c,ACPI code) should handle
!slots just fine, even though maxmem is set.

The consoles ("sclpconsole" and "sclplmconsole") can only be configured
with "-device" and "-chardev" so far. Other machines use the convenience
option "-serial" to configure the default consoles, even for virtual
consoles like spapr-vty on the pseries machine. So let's support this
option on s390x, too. This way we can easily enable the serial console
here again with "-nodefaults", for example:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -nodefaults -serial mon:stdio
... which is way shorter than typing:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -nodefaults \
-chardev stdio,id=c1,mux=on -device sclpconsole,chardev=c1 \
-mon chardev=c1
The -serial parameter can also be used if you only want to see the QEMU
monitor on stdio without using -nodefaults, but not the console output.
That's something that is pretty impossible with the current code today:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -serial none
While we're at it, this patch also maps the second -serial option to the
"sclplmconsole", so that there is now an easy way to configure this second
console on s390x, too, for example:
qemu-system-s390x -no-shutdown -nographic -serial null -serial mon:stdio
Additionally, the new code is also smaller than the old one and we have
less s390x-specific code in vl.c :-)
I've also checked that migration still works as expected by migrating
a guest with console output back and forth between a qemu-system-s390x
that has this patch and an instance without this patch.

This is called just before os_setup_post. Currently none of the
accelerators provide this hook, but the Xen one is going to provide
one in a moment.
