For now, "share=off,readonly=on" would always result in us opening the
file R/O and mmap'ing the opened file MAP_PRIVATE R/O -- effectively
turning it into ROM.
Especially for VM templating, "share=off" is a common use case. However,
that use case is impossible with files that lack write permissions,
because "share=off,readonly=on" will not give us writable RAM.
The sole user of ROM via memory-backend-file are R/O NVDIMMs, but as we
have users (Kata Containers) that rely on the existing behavior --
malicious VMs should not be able to consume COW memory for R/O NVDIMMs --
we cannot change the semantics of "share=off,readonly=on"
So let's add a new "rom" property with on/off/auto values. "auto" is
the default and what most people will use: for historical reasons, to not
change the old semantics, it defaults to the value of the "readonly"
property.
For VM templating, one can now use:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=on,rom=off,...
But we'll disallow:
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=on,rom=off,...
because we would otherwise get an error when trying to mmap the R/O file
shared and writable. An explicit error message is cleaner.
We will also disallow for now:
-object memory-backend-file,share=off,readonly=off,rom=on,...
-object memory-backend-file,share=on,readonly=off,rom=on,...
It's not harmful, but also not really required for now.
Alternatives that were abandoned:
* Make "unarmed=on" for the NVDIMM set the memory region container
readonly. We would still see a change of ROM->RAM and possibly run
into memslot limits with vhost-user. Further, there might be use cases
for "unarmed=on" that should still allow writing to that memory
(temporary files, system RAM, ...).
* Add a new "readonly=on/off/auto" parameter for NVDIMMs. Similar issues
as with "unarmed=on".
* Make "readonly" consume "on/off/file" instead of being a 'bool' type.
This would slightly changes the behavior of the "readonly" parameter:
values like true/false (as accepted by a 'bool'type) would no longer be
accepted.

Let's allow for specifying a thread context via the "prealloc-context"
property. When set, preallcoation threads will be crated via the
thread context -- inheriting the same CPU affinity as the thread
context.
Pinning preallcoation threads to CPUs can heavily increase performance
in NUMA setups, because, preallocation from a CPU close to the target
NUMA node(s) is faster then preallocation from a CPU further remote,
simply because of memory bandwidth for initializing memory with zeroes.
This is especially relevant for very large VMs backed by huge/gigantic
pages, whereby preallocation is mandatory.

Let's make it easier to pin threads created via a ThreadContext to
all host CPUs currently belonging to a given set of host NUMA nodes --
which is the common case.
"node-affinity" is simply a shortcut for setting "cpu-affinity" manually
to the list of host CPUs belonging to the set of host nodes. This property
can only be written.
A simple QEMU example to set the CPU affinity to host node 1 on a system
with two nodes, 24 CPUs each, whereby odd-numbered host CPUs belong to
host node 1:
qemu-system-x86_64 -S \
-object thread-context,id=tc1,node-affinity=1
And we can query the cpu-affinity via HMP/QMP:
(qemu) qom-get tc1 cpu-affinity
[

We cannot query the node-affinity:
(qemu) qom-get tc1 node-affinity
Error: Insufficient permission to perform this operation
But note that due to dynamic library loading this example will not work
before we actually make use of thread_context_create_thread() in QEMU
code, because the type will otherwise not get registered. We'll wire
this up next to make it work.
Note that if the host CPUs for a host node change due do CPU hot(un)plug
CPU onlining/offlining (i.e., lscpu output changes) after the ThreadContext
was started, the CPU affinity will not get updated.

Setting the CPU affinity of QEMU threads is a bit problematic, because
QEMU doesn't always have permissions to set the CPU affinity itself,
for example, with seccomp after initialized by QEMU:
-sandbox enable=on,resourcecontrol=deny
General information about CPU affinities can be found in the man page of
taskset:
CPU affinity is a scheduler property that "bonds" a process to a given
set of CPUs on the system. The Linux scheduler will honor the given CPU
affinity and the process will not run on any other CPUs.
While upper layers are already aware of how to handle CPU affinities for
long-lived threads like iothreads or vcpu threads, especially short-lived
threads, as used for memory-backend preallocation, are more involved to
handle. These threads are created on demand and upper layers are not even
able to identify and configure them.
Introduce the concept of a ThreadContext, that is essentially a thread
used for creating new threads. All threads created via that context
thread inherit the configured CPU affinity. Consequently, it's
sufficient to create a ThreadContext and configure it once, and have all
threads created via that ThreadContext inherit the same CPU affinity.
The CPU affinity of a ThreadContext can be configured two ways:
(1) Obtaining the thread id via the "thread-id" property and setting the
CPU affinity manually (e.g., via taskset).
(2) Setting the "cpu-affinity" property and letting QEMU try set the
CPU affinity itself. This will fail if QEMU doesn't have permissions
to do so anymore after seccomp was initialized.
A simple QEMU example to set the CPU affinity to host CPU 0,1,6,7 would be:
qemu-system-x86_64 -S \
-object thread-context,id=tc1,cpu-affinity=0-1,cpu-affinity=6-7
And we can query it via HMP/QMP:
(qemu) qom-get tc1 cpu-affinity
[
0,
1,
6,
7
]
But note that due to dynamic library loading this example will not work
before we actually make use of thread_context_create_thread() in QEMU
code, because the type will otherwise not get registered. We'll wire
this up next to make it work.
In general, the interface behaves like pthread_setaffinity_np(): host
CPU numbers that are currently not available are ignored; only host CPU
numbers that are impossible with the current kernel will fail. If the
list of host CPU numbers does not include a single CPU that is
available, setting the CPU affinity will fail.
A ThreadContext can be reused, simply by reconfiguring the CPU affinity.
Note that the CPU affinity of previously created threads will not get
adjusted.

The thread pool regulates itself: when idle, it kills threads until
empty, when in demand, it creates new threads until full. This behaviour
doesn't play well with latency sensitive workloads where the price of
creating a new thread is too high. For example, when paired with qemu's
'-mlock', or using safety features like SafeStack, creating a new thread
has been measured take multiple milliseconds.
In order to mitigate this let's introduce a new 'EventLoopBase'
property to set the thread pool size. The threads will be created during
the pool's initialization or upon updating the property's value, remain
available during its lifetime regardless of demand, and destroyed upon
freeing it. A properly characterized workload will then be able to
configure the pool to avoid any latency spikes.

Introduce the 'event-loop-base' abstract class, it'll hold the
properties common to all event loops and provide the necessary hooks for

EventLoopBaseClass is defined as user creatable and provides a hook for
its children to attach themselves to the user creatable class 'complete'
function. It also provides an update_params() callback to propagate
property changes onto its children.
The new 'event-loop-base' class will live in the root directory. It is
built on its own using the 'link_whole' option (there are no direct
function dependencies between the class and its children, it all happens
trough 'constructor' magic). And also imposes new compilation
dependencies:
qom <- event-loop-base <- blockdev (iothread.c)
And in subsequent patches:
qom <- event-loop-base <- qemuutil (util/main-loop.c)
All this forced some amount of reordering in meson.build:
- Moved qom build definition before qemuutil. Doing it the other way
around (i.e. moving qemuutil after qom) isn't possible as a lot of
core libraries that live in between the two depend on it.
- Process the 'hw' subdir earlier, as it introduces files into the
'qom' source set.
No functional changes intended.

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

Let's provide a way to control the use of RAM_NORESERVE via memory
backends using the "reserve" property which defaults to true (old
behavior).
Only Linux currently supports clearing the flag (and support is checked at
runtime, depending on the setting of "/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory").
Windows and other POSIX systems will bail out with "reserve=false".
The target use case is virtio-mem, which dynamically exposes memory
inside a large, sparse memory area to the VM. This essentially allows
avoiding to set "/proc/sys/vm/overcommit_memory == 0") when using
virtio-mem and also supporting hugetlbfs in the future.
As really only Linux implements RAM_NORESERVE right now, let's expose
the property only with CONFIG_LINUX. Setting the property to "false"
will then only fail in corner cases -- for example on very old kernels
or when memory overcommit was completely disabled by the admin.

The qtest server right now can only be created using the -qtest
and -qtest-log options. Allow an alternative way to create it
using "-object qtest,chardev=...,log=...".
This is part of the long term plan to make more (or all) of
QEMU configurable through QMP and preconfig mode.

The ObjectType enum and ObjectOptions are included from qapi-types-qom.h
into common code. We should not use target-specific config switches like
CONFIG_VIRTIO_CRYPTO here, since this is not defined in common code and
thus the enum will look differently between common and target specific
code. For this case, it's hopefully enough to check for CONFIG_VHOST_CRYPTO
only (which is a host specific config switch, i.e. it's the same on all
targets).

ObjectType and ObjectOptions are defined in a target-independent file,
therefore they do not have access to target-specific configuration
symbols such as CONFIG_PSERIES or CONFIG_SEV. For this reason,
pef-guest and sev-guest are currently omitted when compiling the
generated QAPI files. In addition, this causes ObjectType to have
different definitions depending on the file that is including
qapi-types-qom.h (currently this is not causing any issues, but it
is wrong).
Define the two enum entries and the SevGuestProperties type
unconditionally to avoid the issue. We do not expect to have
many target-dependent user-creatable classes, so it is not
particularly problematic.

This converts object-add from 'gen': false to the ObjectOptions QAPI
type. As an immediate benefit, clients can now use QAPI schema
introspection for user creatable QOM objects.
It is also the first step towards making the QAPI schema the only
external interface for the creation of user creatable objects. Once all
other places (HMP and command lines of the system emulator and all
tools) go through QAPI, too, some object implementations can be
simplified because some checks (e.g. that mandatory options are set) are
already performed by QAPI, and in another step, QOM boilerplate code
could be generated from the schema.

This adds a QAPI schema for the properties of the throttle-group object.
The only purpose of the x-* properties is to make the nested options in
'limits' available for a command line parser that doesn't support
structs. Any parser that will use the QAPI schema will supports structs,
though, so they will not be needed in the schema in the future.
To keep the conversion straightforward, add them to the schema anyway.
We can then remove the options and adjust documentation, test cases etc.
in a separate patch.

The various schemas included in QEMU use a JSON-based format which
is, however, strictly speaking not valid JSON.
As a consequence, when vim tries to apply syntax highlight rules
for JSON (as guessed from the file name), the result is an unreadable
mess which mostly consist of red markers pointing out supposed errors
in, well, pretty much everything.
Using Python syntax highlighting produces much better results, and
in fact these files already start with specially-formatted comments
that instruct Emacs to process them as if they were Python files.
This commit adds the equivalent special comments for vim.

The current doc generation doesn't care much about indentation levels,
but we would like to switch to an rST format, and rST does care about
indentation.
Make the doc comments more strongly consistent about indentation
for multiline constructs like:
@arg: description line 1
description line 2
Returns: line one
line 2
so that there is always exactly one space after the colon, and
subsequent lines align with the first.
This commit is a purely whitespace change, and it does not alter the
generated .texi files (because the texi generation code strips away
all the extra whitespace). This does mean that we end up with some
over-length lines.
Note that when the documentation for an argument fits on a single
line like this:
@arg: one line only
then stray extra spaces after the ':' don't affect the rST output, so
I have not attempted to methodically fix them, though the preference
is a single space here too.
