4860853d60 Add 'query-events' command to QMP to query async events
Sometimes it is neccessary for an application to determine
whether a particular QMP event is available, so they can
decide whether to use compatibility code instead. This
introduces a new 'query-events' command to QMP to do just
that

 { "execute": "query-events" }
 {"return": [{"name": "WAKEUP"},
             {"name": "SUSPEND"},
             {"name": "DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED"},
             {"name": "BLOCK_JOB_CANCELLED"},
             {"name": "BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETED"},
             ...snip...
             {"name": "SHUTDOWN"}]}

* monitor.c: Turn MonitorEvent -> string conversion
  into a lookup from a static table of constant strings.
  Add impl of qmp_query_events monitor command handler
* qapi-schema.json, qmp-commands.hx: Define contract of
  query-events command

928059a37b qapi: convert netdev_add
This is not a full QAPI conversion, but an intermediate step.

In essence, do_netdev_add() is split into three functions:

 1. netdev_add(): performs the actual work. This function is fully
    converted to Error (thus, it's "qapi-friendly")

 2. qmp_netdev_add(): the QMP front-end for netdev_add(). This is
    coded by hand and not auto-generated (gen=no in the schema). The
    reason for this it's a lot easier and simpler to with QemuOpts
    this way

 3. hmp_netdev_add(): HMP front-end.

This design was suggested by Paolo Bonzini.

8be7e7e4c7 qemu-option: qemu_opts_create(): use error_set()
This commit converts qemu_opts_create() from qerror_report() to
error_set().

Currently, most calls to qemu_opts_create() can't fail, so most
callers don't need any changes.

The two cases where code checks for qemu_opts_create() erros are:

 1. Initialization code in vl.c. All of them print their own
    error messages directly to stderr, no need to pass the Error
    object

 2. The functions opts_parse(), qemu_opts_from_qdict() and
    qemu_chr_parse_compat() make use of the error information and
    they can be called from HMP or QMP. In this case, to allow for
    incremental conversion, we propagate the error up using
    qerror_report_err(), which keeps the QError semantics

783e9b4826 introduce a new monitor command 'dump-guest-memory' to dump guest's memory
The command's usage:
   dump-guest-memory [-p] protocol [begin] [length]
The supported protocol can be file or fd:
1. file: the protocol starts with "file:", and the following string is
   the file's path.
2. fd: the protocol starts with "fd:", and the following string is the
   fd's name.

Note:
  1. If you want to use gdb to process the core, please specify -p option.
     The reason why the -p option is not default is:
       a. guest machine in a catastrophic state can have corrupted memory,
          which we cannot trust.
       b. The guest machine can be in read-mode even if paging is enabled.
          For example: the guest machine uses ACPI to sleep, and ACPI sleep
          state goes in real-mode.
  2. If you don't want to dump all guest's memory, please specify the start
     physical address and the length.

9c92bf7f6c Revert "rtl8139: do the network/host communication only in normal operating mode"
This reverts commit ff71f2e8ca. This is because
the linux 8139cp driver would leave the card in "Config Register Write Enable"
mode after the eeprom were read or write ( which is unexpected in the spec
). Also a physical 8139 card can still DMA into host memory in modes other than
Normal mode, so we need revert this commit to align with the behavior of
physical card.

The issue of 8139cp driver should be fixed in linux seperately.

136be99e6e virtio-blk: Fix geometry sector calculation
Currently the sector value for the geometry is masked, even if the
user usesa command line parameter that explicitely gives a number.
This breaks dasd devices on s390. A dasd device can have
a physical block size of 4096 (== same for logical block size)
and a typcial geometry of 15 heads and 12 sectors per cyl.
The ibm partition detection relies on a correct geometry
reported by the device. Unfortunately the current code changes
12 to 8. This would be necessary if the total size is
not a multiple of logical sector size,  but for dasd this
is not the case.

This patch checks the device size and only applies sector
mask if necessary.

c2d76497b6 block: prevent snapshot mode $TMPDIR symlink attack
In snapshot mode, bdrv_open creates an empty temporary file without
checking for mkstemp or close failure, and ignoring the possibility
of a buffer overrun given a surprisingly long $TMPDIR.
Change the get_tmp_filename function to return int (not void),
so that it can inform its two callers of those failures.
Also avoid the risk of buffer overrun and do not ignore mkstemp

Update both callers (in block.c and vvfat.c) to propagate
temp-file-creation failure to their callers.

get_tmp_filename creates and closes an empty file, while its
callers later open that presumed-existing file with O_CREAT.
The problem was that a malicious user could provoke mkstemp failure
and race to create a symlink with the selected temporary file name,
thus causing the qemu process (usually root owned) to open through
the symlink, overwriting an attacker-chosen file.

1352672860 Expose CPUID leaf 7 only for -cpu host
Changes v2 -> v3;
  - Check for kvm_enabled() before setting cpuid_7_0_ebx_features

Changes v1 -> v2:
  - Use kvm_arch_get_supported_cpuid() instead of host_cpuid() on
    cpu_x86_fill_host().

  We should use GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID for all bits on "-cpu host"
  eventually, but I am not changing all the other CPUID leaves because
  we may not be able to test such an intrusive change in time for 1.1.

Description of the bug:

Since QEMU 0.15, the CPUID information on CPUID[EAX=7,ECX=0] is being
returned unfiltered to the guest, directly from the GET_SUPPORTED_CPUID
return value.

The problem is that this makes the resulting CPU feature flags
unpredictable and dependent on the host CPU and kernel version. This
breaks live-migration badly if migrating from a host CPU that supports
some features on that CPUID leaf (running a recent kernel) to a kernel
or host CPU that doesn't support it.

Migration also is incorrect (the virtual CPU changes under the guest's
feet) if you migrate in the opposite direction (from an old CPU/kernel
to a new CPU/kernel), but with less serious consequences (guests
normally query CPUID information only once on boot).

Fortunately, the bug affects only users using cpudefs with level >= 7.

The right behavior should be to explicitly enable those features on
[cpudef] config sections or on the "-cpu" command-line arguments. Right
now there is no predefined CPU model on QEMU that has those features:
the latest Intel model we have is Sandy Bridge.

I would like to get this fixed on 1.1, so I am submitting this patch,
that enables those features only if "-cpu host" is being used (as we
don't have any pre-defined CPU model that actually have those features).
After 1.1 is released, we can make those features properly configurable
on [cpudef] and -cpu configuration.

One problem is: with this patch, users with the following setup:
- Running QEMU 1.0;
- Using a cpudef having level >= 7;
- Running a kernel that supports the features on CPUID leaf 7; and
- Running on a CPU that supports some features on CPUID leaf 7
won't be able to live-migrate to QEMU 1.1. But for these users
live-migration is already broken (they can't live-migrate to hosts with
older CPUs or older kernels, already), I don't see how to avoid this
problem.

9e2fa418fb qemu-ga: avoid blocking on atime update when reading /etc/mtab
Currently we re-read/re-process /etc/mtab to get an updated list of
mounts when guest-fsfreeze-thaw is called. This can cause an atime
update on /etc/mtab, which will block if we're in a frozen state.

Instead, use /proc's version of mtab, which may not be up-to-date with
options passed via -o remount, but is compatible for our use cases since
we only care about the filesystem type.
