Linking code from multiple separate QAPI schemata into the same
program is possible, but involves some weirdness around built-in
types:
* We generate code for built-in types into .c only with option
--builtins. The user is responsible for generating code for exactly
one QAPI schema per program with --builtins.
* We generate code for built-in types into .h regardless of
--builtins, but guarded by #ifndef QAPI_VISIT_BUILTIN. Because all
copies of this code are exactly the same, including any combination
of these headers works.
Replace this contraption by something more conventional: generate code
for built-in types into their very own files: qapi-builtin-types.c,
qapi-builtin-visit.c, qapi-builtin-types.h, qapi-builtin-visit.h, but
only with --builtins. Obey --output-dir, but ignore --prefix for
them.
Make qapi-types.h include qapi-builtin-types.h. With multiple
schemata you now have multiple qapi-types.[ch], but only one
qapi-builtin-types.[ch]. Same for qapi-visit.[ch] and
qapi-builtin-visit.[ch].
Bonus: if all you need is built-in stuff, you can include a much
smaller header. To be exploited shortly.

Whenever qapi-schema.json changes, we run six programs eleven times to
update eleven files. Similar for qga/qapi-schema.json. This is
silly. Replace the six programs by a single program that spits out
all eleven files.
The programs become modules in new Python package qapi, along with the
helper library. This requires moving them to scripts/qapi/. While
moving them, consistently drop executable mode bits.

It is used by GTK-VNC, SPICE-GTK and libvirt for mapping keys.
Using it in QEMU will let us replace many hand written lookup

Currently if DTC is required by configure and not available in the host
OS install, we exit with an error message telling the user to checkout a

This introduces automatic handling of the git submodule checkout process
and enables it for dtc. This only runs if building from GIT, so users of
release tarballs still need the system library install. The current state
of the git checkout is stashed in .git-submodule-status, and a helper
program is used to determine if this state matches the desired submodule
state. A dependency against 'Makefile' ensures that the submodule state
is refreshed at the start of the build process

vhost-scsi (today), VMs using vhost-user-scsi can be live migrated.
To use it, start Qemu with a command line equivalent to:
qemu-system-x86_64 \
-chardev socket,id=vus0,path=/tmp/vus.sock \
-device vhost-user-scsi-pci,chardev=vus0,bus=pci.0,addr=...

qapi/introspect.json defines the introspection schema. It's designed
for QMP introspection, but should do for similar uses, such as QGA.
The introspection schema does not reflect all the rules and
restrictions that apply to QAPI schemata. A valid QAPI schema has an
introspection value conforming to the introspection schema, but the
converse is not true.
Introspection lowers away a number of schema details, and makes
implicit things explicit:
* The built-in types are declared with their JSON type.
All integer types are mapped to 'int', because how many bits we use
internally is an implementation detail. It could be pressed into
external interface service as very approximate range information,
but that's a bad idea. If we need range information, we better do
it properly.
* Implicit type definitions are made explicit, and given
auto-generated names:
- Array types, named by appending "List" to the name of their
element type, like in generated C.
- The enumeration types implicitly defined by simple union types,
named by appending "Kind" to the name of their simple union type,
like in generated C.
- Types that don't occur in generated C. Their names start with ':'
so they don't clash with the user's names.
* All type references are by name.
* The struct and union types are generalized into an object type.
* Base types are flattened.
* Commands take a single argument and return a single result.
Dictionary argument or list result is an implicit type definition.
The empty object type is used when a command takes no arguments or
produces no results.
The argument is always of object type, but the introspection schema
doesn't reflect that.
The 'gen': false directive is omitted as implementation detail.
The 'success-response' directive is omitted as well for now, even
though it's not an implementation detail, because it's not used by
QMP.
* Events carry a single data value.
Implicit type definition and empty object type use, just like for
commands.
The value is of object type, but the introspection schema doesn't
reflect that.
* Types not used by commands or events are omitted.
Indirect use counts as use.
* Optional members have a default, which can only be null right now
Instead of a mandatory "optional" flag, we have an optional default.
No default means mandatory, default null means optional without
default value. Non-null is available for optional with default
(possible future extension).
* Clients should *not* look up types by name, because type names are
not ABI. Look up the command or event you're interested in, then
follow the references.
TODO Should we hide the type names to eliminate the temptation?
New generator scripts/qapi-introspect.py computes an introspection
value for its input, and generates a C variable holding it.
It can generate awfully long lines. Marked TODO.
A new test-qmp-input-visitor test case feeds its result for both
tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json and qapi-schema.json to a
QmpInputVisitor to verify it actually conforms to the schema.
New QMP command query-qmp-schema takes its return value from that
variable. Its reply is some 85KiBytes for me right now.
If this turns out to be too much, we have a couple of options:
* We can use shorter names in the JSON. Not the QMP style.
* Optionally return the sub-schema for commands and events given as
arguments.
Right now qmp_query_schema() sends the string literal computed by
qmp-introspect.py. To compute sub-schema at run time, we'd have to
duplicate parts of qapi-introspect.py in C. Unattractive.
* Let clients cache the output of query-qmp-schema.
It changes only on QEMU upgrades, i.e. rarely. Provide a command
query-qmp-schema-hash. Clients can have a cache indexed by hash,
and re-query the schema only when they don't have it cached. Even
simpler: put the hash in the QMP greeting.

When libtool support was added to configure, the new temporary files
were left out of the list of files cleaned up on exit; this results
in a lot of stale .lo files being left around in /tmp. Worse, libtool
creates a /tmp/.libs directory which we can't easily clean up.
Put all our temporary files in a single temporary directory created
as a subdirectory of the build directory, so we can easily clean it up,
and don't need fragile or complicated code for creation to avoid it
clashing with temporary directories from other instances of QEMU
configure or being subject to attack from adversaries who can write
to /tmp.
Since the temporaries now live in the build tree, we have no
need to jump through hoops with a trap handler to try to remove
them when configure exits; this fixes some weird bugs where hitting
^C during a configure run wouldn't actually make it stop, because
we would run the trap handler but then not stop. (It is possible
to get the trap handler semantics right but it is convoluted largely
because of bugs in dash, so it is simpler to just avoid it.)
Note that "temporary files go in the build directory, not /tmp" is
the way autoconf behaves.

Add necessary rules and flags for shared object generation.
The new rules introduced here are:
1) %.o in $(common-obj-m) is compiled to %.o, then linked to %.so.
2) %.mo in $(common-obj-m) is the placeholder for %.so for pattern
matching in Makefile. It's linked to "-shared" with all its dependencies
(multiple *.o) as input. Which means the list of depended objects must
be specified in each sub-Makefile.objs:
foo.mo-objs := bar.o baz.o qux.o
in the same style with foo.o-cflags and foo.o-libs. The objects here
will be prefixed with "$(obj)/" if it's a subdirectory Makefile.objs.
3) For all files ending up in %.so, the following is added automatically:
foo.o-cflags += -fPIC -DBUILD_DSO
Also introduce --enable-modules in configure, the option will enable
support of shared object build. Otherwise objects are static linked to
executables.

in .gitignore is ignored in all subdirectores. This is good
for, say. object files (*.o), but not good for particular
names which should be ignored only in one directory. For
example, qemu-img.1 file is generated in the top directory,
and it should be ignored only there, not in some subdir.
At first, this might not matter much, but we have lots of
examples already where it actually does not help at all.
For example, top-level .gitignore ignores a file/dir named
"patches" (which is very questionable by itself), but it
is applied recursively, so git also ignores, for example,
debian/patches/ which should not be ignored.
So anchor all the names where appropriate. .gitignore
should be cleaned up further, which will be addressed in
a subsequent patch.
