Remove the default compiled out tunnel channel, add the always available
cursor channel. Optimally the man page would depend on compiled in

fb0490f69f block: add -drive copy-on-read=on|off
This patch adds the -drive copy-on-read=on|off command-line option:

  copy-on-read=on|off
  copy-on-read is "on" or "off" and enables whether to copy read backing
  file sectors into the image file.  Copy-on-read avoids accessing the
  same backing file sectors repeatedly and is useful when the backing
  file is over a slow network.  By default copy-on-read is off.

92196b2f56 block: add cache=directsync parameter to -drive
This patch adds -drive cache=directsync for O_DIRECT | O_SYNC host file
I/O with no disk write cache presented to the guest.

This mode is useful when guests may not be sending flushes when
appropriate and therefore leave data at risk in case of power failure.
When cache=directsync is used, write operations are only completed to
the guest when data is safely on disk.

This new mode is like cache=writethrough but it bypasses the host page
cache.

104bf02eb5 revamp acpitable parsing and allow to specify complete (headerful) table
This patch almost rewrites acpi_table_add() function

The result is that it's now possible to specify whole table
(together with a header) in an external file, instead of just
data portion, with a new file= parameter, but at the same time
it's still possible to specify header fields as before.

3d3b8303c6 showing a splash picture when start
Added options to let qemu transfer two configuration files to bios:
"bootsplash.bmp" and "etc/boot-menu-wait", which could be specified by command
    -boot splash=P,splash-time=T
P is jpg/bmp file name or an absolute path, T have a max value of 0xffff, unit
is ms. With these two options, if user invoke qemu with menu=on option, then
a splash picture would be showed in a given time. For example:
    qemu -boot menu=on,splash=/root/boot.bmp,splash-time=5000
would make boot.bmp shown as a brand with 5 seconds in the booting up process.
This feature need the new seabios's support, which could be got from git.

48b3ed0a68 spice: add SASL support
Turn on SASL support by appending "sasl" to the spice arguments, which
requires that the client use SASL to authenticate with the spice.  The
exact choice of authentication method used is controlled from the
system / user's SASL configuration file for the 'qemu' service. This
is typically found in /etc/sasl2/qemu.conf. If running QEMU as an
unprivileged user, an environment variable SASL_CONF_PATH can be used
to make it search alternate locations for the service config.  While
some SASL auth methods can also provide data encryption (eg GSSAPI),
it is recommended that SASL always be combined with the 'tls' and
'x509' settings to enable use of SSL and server certificates. This
ensures a data encryption preventing compromise of authentication
credentials.

It requires support from spice 0.8.1.

This option gives the ability to switch one "accelerator" like kvm, xen
or the default one tcg. We can specify more than one accelerator by
separate them by a colon. QEMU will try each one and use the first whose
works.

So,
./qemu -machine accel=xen:kvm:tcg

which would try Xen support first, then KVM and finally TCG if none of
the other works.

By default, QEMU will use TCG. But we can specify another default in the
global configuration file.
