7536ee4bc3 vnc: added initial websocket protocol support
This patch adds basic Websocket Protocol version 13 - RFC 6455 - support
to QEMU VNC. Binary encoding support on the client side is mandatory.

Because of the GnuTLS requirement the Websockets implementation is
optional (--enable-vnc-ws).

To activate Websocket support the VNC option "websocket"is used, for
example "-vnc :0,websocket".
The listen port for Websocket connections is (5700 + display) so if
QEMU VNC is started with :0 the Websocket port would be 5700.
As an alternative the Websocket port could be manually specified by
using ",websocket=<port>" instead.

Parts of the implementation base on Anthony Liguori's QEMU Websocket
patch from 2010 and on Joel Martin's LibVNC Websocket implementation.

5a49d3e9a7 spice-qemu-char: add spiceport chardev
Add a new spice chardev to allow arbitrary communication between the
host and the Spice client via the spice server.

Examples:

This allows the Spice client to have a special port for the qemu
monitor:

... -chardev spiceport,name=org.qemu.monitor,id=monitorport
    -mon chardev=monitorport

v2:
- remove support for chardev to chardev linking
- conditionnaly compile with SPICE_SERVER_VERSION

587ed6be0b qemu-config: Add new -add-fd command line option
This option can be used for passing file descriptors on the
command line.  It mirrors the existing add-fd QMP command which
allows an fd to be passed to QEMU via SCM_RIGHTS and added to an
fd set.

This can be combined with commands such as -drive to link file
descriptors in an fd set to a drive:

    qemu-kvm -add-fd fd=3,set=2,opaque="rdwr:/path/to/file"
             -add-fd fd=4,set=2,opaque="rdonly:/path/to/file"
             -drive file=/dev/fdset/2,index=0,media=disk

This example adds dups of fds 3 and 4, and the accompanying opaque
strings to the fd set with ID=2.  qemu_open() already knows how
to handle a filename of this format.  qemu_open() searches the
corresponding fd set for an fd and when it finds a match, QEMU
goes on to use a dup of that fd just like it would have used an
fd that it opened itself.

ac05f34924 add a boot parameter to set reboot timeout
Added an option to let qemu transfer a configuration file to bios,
"etc/boot-fail-wait", which could be specified by command
    -boot reboot-timeout=T
T have a max value of 0xffff, unit is ms.

With this option, guest will wait for a given time if not find
bootabled device, then reboot. If reboot-timeout is '-1', guest
will not reboot, qemu passes '-1' to bios by default.

This feature need the new seabios's support.

Seabios pulls the value from the fwcfg "file" interface, this
interface is used because SeaBIOS needs a reliable way of
obtaining a name, value size, and value. It in no way requires
that there be a real file on the user's host machine.

f278d4947f i8259: add -no-spurious-interrupt-hack option
This patch provides a way to optionally suppress spurious interrupts,
as a workaround for systems described below:

Some old operating systems do not handle spurious interrupts well,
and qemu tends to generate them significantly more often than
real hardware.

Examples:
  - Microport UNIX System V/386 v 2.1 (ca 1987)
    (The main problem I'm fixing: Without this patch, it panics
    sporadically when accessing the hard disk.)
  - AT&T UNIX System V/386 Release 4.0 Version 2.1a (ca 1991)
    See screenshot in "QEMU Official OS Support List":
    http://www.claunia.com/qemu/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=9
    (I don't have this system to test.)

482f7bf86b vga: add some optional CGA compatibility hacks
This patch adds some optional compatibility hacks (default
disabled) to allow Microport UNIX to function under qemu.

I've tried to structure it to be easy to add more hacks for other
old CGA programs, if anyone ever needs them.

Microport UNIX System V/386 v 2.1 (ca 1987) tries to program
the CGA registers directly with neither the assistance of BIOS, nor
with proper handling of EGA/VGA-only registers.  Note that it didn't
work on real VGA hardware, either (although in that case, the most
obvious problems seemed to be out-of-range hsync and/or vsync
signalling, rather than the issues in this patch).

Eventually real MDA and/or CGA support might provide an alternative to
this patch, although a hybrid approach like this patch might still
be useful in marginal cases.

Add a new '[,dump-guest-core=on|off]' option to the '-machine' option. When
'dump-guest-core=off' is specified, guest memory is omitted from the core dump.
The default behavior continues to be to include guest memory when a core dump is
triggered. In my testing, this brought the core dump size down from 384MB to 6MB
on a 2GB guest.

Is anything additional required to preserve this setting for migration or
savevm? I don't believe so.

31459f463a iscsi: Pick default initiator-name based on the name of the VM
This patch updates the iscsi layer to automatically pick a 'unique'
initiator-name based on the name of the vm in case the user has not set
an explicit iqn-name to use.

Create a new function qemu_get_vm_name() that returns the name of the VM,
if specified.

This way we can thus create default names to use as the initiator name
based on the guest session.

If the VM is not named via the '-name' command line argument, the iscsi
initiator-name used wiull simply be

    iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm

If a name for the VM was specified with the '-name' option, iscsi will
use a default initiatorname of

    iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm:<name>

These names are just the default iscsi initiator name that qemu will
generate/use only when the user has not set an explicit initiator name
via the commandlines or config files.

0f66998ff6 vnc: disable VNC password authentication (security type 2) when in FIPS mode
FIPS 140-2 requires disabling certain ciphers, including DES, which is used
by VNC to obscure passwords when they are sent over the network.  The
solution for FIPS users is to disable the use of VNC password auth when the
host system is operating in FIPS compliance mode and the user has specified
'-enable-fips' on the QEMU command line.

This patch causes QEMU to emit a message to stderr when the host system is
running in FIPS mode and a VNC password was specified on the commend line.
If the system is not running in FIPS mode, or is running in FIPS mode but
VNC password authentication was not requested, QEMU operates normally.

c8057f951d Support 'help' as a synonym for '?' in command line options
For command line options which permit '?' meaning 'please list the
permitted values', add support for 'help' as a synonym, by abstracting
the check out into a helper function.

This change means that in some cases where we were being lazy in
our string parsing, "?junk" will now be rejected as an invalid option
rather than being (undocumentedly) treated the same way as "?".

Update the documentation to use 'help' rather than '?', since '?'
is a shell metacharacter and thus prone to fail confusingly if there
is a single character filename in the current working directory and
the '?' has not been escaped. It's therefore better to steer users
towards 'help', though '?' is retained for backwards compatibility.

We do not, however, update the output of the system emulator's -help
(or any documentation autogenerated from the qemu-options.hx which
is the source of the -help text) because libvirt parses our -help
output and will break. At a later date when QEMU provides a better
interface so libvirt can avoid having to do this, we can update the
-help text too.

b65ee4fa29 qemu-doc: Use QEMU instead of qemu for product name
When 'qemu' was used as a product name or as a generic process name,
it is now replaced by the official upper case 'QEMU'.

v2:
Added missing period (hint from Andreas Färber).

3804da9dbe qemu-doc: Fix executable name in examples
The executable name qemu was replaced some time ago by qemu-system-i386.
Fix all examples accordingly.

Some examples will only work with qemu-system-i386 or qemu-system-x86_64
for obvious reasons ("dos.img").

To keep things simple, I did not vary the executable name.
Place holders like qemu-system-TARGET were also only used once
in the enhanced description for QEMU launches using Wine.

c7f0f3b1c8 qtest: add test framework
The idea behind qtest is pretty simple.  Instead of executing a CPU via TCG or
KVM, rely on an external process to send events to the device model that the CPU
would normally generate.

qtest presents itself as an accelerator.  In addition, a new option is added to
establish a qtest server (-qtest) that takes a character device.  This is what
allows the external process to send CPU events to the device model.

qtest uses a simple line based protocol to send the events.  Documentation of
that protocol is in qtest.c.

I considered reusing the monitor for this job.  Adding interrupts would be a bit
difficult.  In addition, logging would also be difficult.

qtest has extensive logging support.  All protocol commands are logged with
time stamps using a new command line option (-qtest-log).  Logging is important
since ultimately, this is a feature for debugging.
