This reverts commits eea2d14117 ("Makefile: remove $(TESTS_PYTHON)",
2023-05-26) and 9c6692db55 ("tests: Use configure-provided pyvenv for
tests", 2023-05-18).
Right now, there is a conflict between wanting a ">=" constraint when
using a distro-provided package and wanting a "==" constraint when
installing Avocado from PyPI; this would provide the best of both worlds
in terms of resiliency for both distros that have required packages and
distros that don't.
The conflict is visible also for meson, where we would like to install
the latest 0.63.x version but also accept a distro 1.1.x version.
But it is worse for avocado, for two reasons:
1) we cannot use an "==" constraint to install avocado if the venv
includes a system avocado. The distro will package plugins that have
"==" constraints on the version that is included in the distro, and, using
"pip install avocado==88.1" on a venv that includes system packages will
result in this error:
ERROR: pip's dependency resolver does not currently take into account all the packages that are installed. This behaviour is the source of the following dependency conflicts.
avocado-framework-plugin-varianter-yaml-to-mux 98.0 requires avocado-framework==98.0, but you have avocado-framework 88.1 which is incompatible.
avocado-framework-plugin-result-html 98.0 requires avocado-framework==98.0, but you have avocado-framework 88.1 which is incompatible.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/berrange/src/virt/qemu/build'
2) we cannot use ">=" either if the venv does _not_ include a system
avocado, because that would result in the installation of v101.0 which
is the one we've just reverted.
So the idea is to encode the dependencies as an (acceptable, locked)
tuple, like this hypothetical TOML that would be committed inside
python/ and used by mkvenv.py:
[meson]
meson = { minimum = "0.63.0", install = "0.63.3", canary = "meson" }
[docs]
# 6.0 drops support for Python 3.7
sphinx = { minimum = "1.6", install = "<6.0", canary = "sphinx-build" }
sphinx_rtd_theme = { minimum = "0.5" }
[avocado]
avocado-framework = { minimum = "88.1", install = "88.1", canary = "avocado" }
Once this is implemented, it would also be possible to install avocado in
pyvenv/ using "mkvenv.py ensure", thus using the distro package on Fedora
and CentOS Stream (the only distros where it's available). But until
this is implemented, keep avocado in a separate venv. There is still the
benefit of using a single python for meson custom_targets and for sphinx.

qatomic_mb_read and qatomic_mb_set were the very first atomic primitives
introduced for QEMU; their semantics are unclear and they provide a false
sense of safety.
The last use of qatomic_mb_read() has been removed, so delete it.
qatomic_mb_set() instead can survive as an optimized
qatomic_set()+smp_mb(), similar to Linux's smp_store_mb(), but
rename it to qatomic_set_mb() to match the order of the two
operations.

Although we already covered the need for padding bytes with our
changes in commit 3ae3fcfa, commit 66fcbca5 (both v5.0.0) added one
byte and relied on the rest of the text for implicitly covering 7
padding bytes. For consistency with other parts of the header (such
as the header extension format listing padding from n - m, or the
snapshot table entry listing variable padding), we might as well call
out the remaining 7 bytes as padding until such time (as any) as they
gain another meaning.

Document the named field syntax that we want to implement for the
decodetree script. This allows a field to be defined in terms of
some other field that the instruction pattern has already set, for
example:
%sz_imm 10:3 sz:3 !function=expand_sz_imm
to allow a function to be passed both an immediate field from the
instruction and also a sz value which might have been specified by
the instruction pattern directly (sz=1, etc) rather than being a
simple field within the instruction.
Note that the restriction on not having the format referring to the
pattern and the pattern referring to the format simultaneously is a
restriction of the decoder generator rather than inherently being a
silly thing to do.

[volatile-memdev] and [persistent-memdev]
The existing [memdev] property has been deprecated and will default the
memory region to a persistent memory region (although a user may assign
the region to a ram or file backed region). It cannot be used in
combination with the new [persistent-memdev] property.
Partitioning volatile memory from persistent memory is not yet supported.
Volatile memory is mapped at DPA(0x0), while Persistent memory is mapped
at DPA(vmem->size), per CXL Spec 8.2.9.8.2.0 - Get Partition Info.

Convert the u2f.txt file to rST, and place it in the right place
in our manual layout. The old text didn't fit very well into our
manual style, so the new version ends up looking like a rewrite,
although some of the original text is preserved:
* the 'building' section of the old file is removed, since we
generally assume that users have already built QEMU
* some rather verbose text has been cut back
* document the passthrough device first, on the assumption
that's most likely to be of interest to users
* cut back on the duplication of text between sections
* format example command lines etc with rST
As it's a short document it seemed simplest to do this all
in one go rather than try to do a minimal syntactic conversion
and then clean up the wording and layout.

Python 3.6 was EOL 2021-12-31. Newer versions of upstream libraries have
begun dropping support for this version and it is becoming more
cumbersome to support. Avocado-framework and qemu.qmp each have their
own reasons for wanting to drop Python 3.6, but won't until QEMU does.
Versions of Python available in our supported build platforms as of today,
with optional versions available in parentheses:
openSUSE Leap 15.4: 3.6.15 (3.9.10, 3.10.2)
CentOS Stream 8: 3.6.8 (3.8.13, 3.9.16)
CentOS Stream 9: 3.9.13
Fedora 36: 3.10
Fedora 37: 3.11
Debian 11: 3.9.2
Alpine 3.14, 3.15: 3.9.16
Alpine 3.16, 3.17: 3.10.10
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS: 3.8.10
Ubuntu 22.04 LTS: 3.10.4
NetBSD 9.3: 3.9.13*
FreeBSD 12.4: 3.9.16
FreeBSD 13.1: 3.9.16
OpenBSD 7.2: 3.9.16
Note: Our VM tests install 3.9 explicitly for FreeBSD and 3.10 for
NetBSD; the default for "python" or "python3" in FreeBSD is
3.9.16. NetBSD does not appear to have a default meta-package, but
offers several options, the lowest of which is 3.7.15. "python39"
appears to be a pre-requisite to one of the other packages we request in
tests/vm/netbsd. pip, ensurepip and other Python essentials are
currently only available for Python 3.10 for NetBSD.
CentOS and OpenSUSE support parallel installation of multiple Python
interpreters, and binaries in /usr/bin will always use Python 3.6. However,
the newly introduced support for virtual environments ensures that all build
steps that execute QEMU Python code use a single interpreter.
Since it is safe to under our supported platform policy, bump our
minimum supported version of Python to 3.7.

Save a bit of build time by passing the number of jobs option to
sphinx.
We cannot use the -j option from make because meson does not support
setting build time parameters for custom targets. Use nproc instead or
the equivalent sphinx option "-j auto", if that is available (version
>=1.7.0).
Also make sure our plugins support parallelism and report it properly
to sphinx. Particularly, implement the merge_domaindata method in
DBusDomain that is used to merge in data from other subprocesses.

When new dependencies and packages are added to containers, its important to
run CI container generation pipelines on gitlab to make sure that there are no
obvious conflicts between packages that are being added and those that are
already present. Running CI container pipelines will make sure that there are
no such breakages before we commit the change updating the containers. Add a
line in the documentation reminding developers to run the pipeline before
submitting the change. It will also ease the life of the maintainers.

conversion of the old info docs to rST (the '005f' is because ASCII
0x5f is '_' and the old info link names had underscores in them).

The QAPI schema doc comment language provides special syntax for
command and event arguments, struct and union members, alternate
branches, enumeration values, and features: descriptions starting with
"@name:".
By convention, we format them like this:
# @name: Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit,
# sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore
# magna aliqua.
Okay for names as short as "name", but we have much longer ones. Their
description gets squeezed against the right margin, like this:
# @dirty-sync-missed-zero-copy: Number of times dirty RAM synchronization could
# not avoid copying dirty pages. This is between
# 0 and @dirty-sync-count * @multifd-channels.
# (since 7.1)
The description text is effectively just 50 characters wide. Easy
enough to read, but can be cumbersome to write.
The awkward squeeze against the right margin makes people go beyond it,
which produces two undesirables: arguments about style, and descriptions
that are unnecessarily hard to read, like this one:
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime: list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is
# only present when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability
# is enabled. (Since 3.0)
We could instead format it like
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime:
# list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is only present
# when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability is
# enabled. (Since 3.0)
or, since the commit before previous, like
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime:
# list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU. This is only present
# when the postcopy-blocktime migration capability is
# enabled. (Since 3.0)
However, I'd rather have
# @postcopy-vcpu-blocktime: list of the postcopy blocktime per vCPU.
# This is only present when the postcopy-blocktime migration
# capability is enabled. (Since 3.0)
because this is how rST field and option lists work.
To get this, we need to let the first non-blank line after the
"@name:" line determine expected indentation.
This fills up the indentation pitfall mentioned in
docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst. A related pitfall still exists. Update
the text to show it.

[Work around lack of walrus operator in Python 3.7 and older]
QAPI doc comments are for QMP users: they go into the "QEMU QMP
Reference Manual" and the "QEMU Storage Daemon QMP Reference Manual".
The doc comment TODO sections are for somebody else, namely for the
people who can do: developers. Do not emit them into the user
manuals.
This elides the following TODOs:
* SchemaInfoCommand
# TODO: @success-response (currently irrelevant, because it's QGA, not QMP)
This is a note to developers adding introspection to the guest
agent. It makes no sense to users.
* @query-hotpluggable-cpus
# TODO: Better documentation; currently there is none.
This is a reminder for developers. It doesn't help users.
* @device_add
# TODO: This command effectively bypasses QAPI completely due to its
# "additional arguments" business. It shouldn't have been added to

Turn them into comments. QAPI developers will still see them (they

The 'singlestep' member of StatusInfo has never done what the QMP
documentation claims it does. What it actually reports is whether
TCG is working in "one guest instruction per translation block" mode.
We no longer need this field for the HMP 'info status' command, as
we've moved that information to 'info jit'. It seems unlikely that
anybody is monitoring the state of this obscure TCG setting via QMP,
especially since QMP provides no means for changing the setting. So
simply deprecate the field, without providing any replacement.
Until we do eventually delete the member, correct the misstatements
in the QAPI documentation about it.
If we do find that there are users for this, then the most likely way
we would provide replacement access to the information would be to
put the accelerator QOM object at a well-known path such as
/machine/accel, which could then be used with the existing qom-set
and qom-get commands.
