afbe70535f main-loop: introduce qemu_mutex_iothread_locked
This function will be used to avoid recursive locking of the iothread lock
whenever address_space_rw/ld*/st* are called with the BQL held, which is
almost always the case.

Tracking whether the iothread is owned is very cheap (just use a TLS
variable) but requires some care because now the lock must always be
taken with qemu_mutex_lock_iothread().  Previously this wasn't the case.
Outside TCG mode this is not a problem.  In TCG mode, we need to be
careful and avoid the "prod out of compiled code" step if already
in a VCPU thread.  This is easily done with a check on current_cpu,
i.e. qemu_in_vcpu_thread().

Hopefully, multithreaded TCG will get rid of the whole logic to kick
VCPUs whenever an I/O event occurs!

2e7f7a3c86 main-loop: use qemu_mutex_lock_iothread consistently
The next patch will require the BQL to be always taken with
qemu_mutex_lock_iothread(), while right now this isn't the case.

Outside TCG mode this is not a problem.  In TCG mode, we need to be
careful and avoid the "prod out of compiled code" step if already

c6bd8c706a qerror: Clean up QERR_ macros to expand into a single string
These macros expand into error class enumeration constant, comma,
string.  Unclean.  Has been that way since commit 13f59ae.

The error class is always ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR since the previous
commit.

Clean up as follows:

* Prepend every use of a QERR_ macro by ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR, and
  delete it from the QERR_ macro.  No change after preprocessing.

* Rewrite error_set(ERROR_CLASS_GENERIC_ERROR, ...) into
  error_setg(...).  Again, no change after preprocessing.

5cd8cadae8 migration: Use normal VMStateDescriptions for Subsections
We create optional sections with this patch.  But we already have
optional subsections.  Instead of having two mechanism that do the
same, we can just generalize it.

For subsections we just change:

- Add a needed function to VMStateDescription
- Remove VMStateSubsection (after removal of the needed function
  it is just a VMStateDescription)
- Adjust the whole tree, moving the needed function to the corresponding
  VMStateDescription

bdd459a00a cpus: Don't kick un-realized cpus.
following a464982499, it's now possible for
there to be attempts to take the BQL before CPUs have been realized in
cases where a machine model inits peripherals before the first CPU.

BQL lock aquisition kicks the first_cpu, leading to a segfault if this
happens pre-realize. Guard the CPU kick routine to perform no action for
a CPU that doesn't exist or doesn't have a thread yet.

There was a fix to this with commit
6b49809c59, but the check there misses
the case where the CPU has been inited and not realized. Strengthen the
check to make sure that the first_cpu has a thread (i.e. it is
realized) before allowing the kick.

89d5cbddee profiler: Reenable built-in profiler
2ed1ebcf6 "timer: replace time() with QEMU_CLOCK_HOST" broke compile
when configured with --enable-profiler. Turned out the profiler has been
broken for a while.

This does s/qemu_time/tcg_time/ as the profiler only works in a TCG mode.
This also fixes the compile error.

This changes profile_getclock() to return nanoseconds rather than
CPU ticks as the "profile" HMP command prints seconds and there is no
platform-independent way to get ticks-per-second rate.
Since TCG is quite slow and get_clock() returns nanoseconds (fine
enough), this should not affect precision much.

This removes unused qemu_time_start and tlb_flush_time.

0dc9daf0be memsave: Improve and disambiguate error message
When requesting a size which cannot be read, the error message shows
a different address which is misleading to the user and it looks like
something's wrong with the address parsing. This is because the input
@addr variable is incremented in the memory dumping loop:

(qemu) memsave 0xffffffff8418069c 0xb00000 mem
Invalid addr 0xffffffff849ffe9c specified

Fix that by saving the original address and size and use them in the
error message:

Invalid addr 0xffffffff8418069c/size 11534336 specified

   thread 1 calls qemu_mutex_lock_iothread
   thread 2 calls qemu_mutex_lock_iothread
   VCPU thread are created
   VCPU thread enters execution loop

results in the VCPU threads letting the other two threads run
and obeying iothread_requesting_mutex even if the VCPUs are
not halted.  To do this, check iothread_requesting_mutex
before execution starts.

6b49809c59 cpus: fix deadlock and segfault in qemu_mutex_lock_iothread
When two threads (other than the low-priority TCG VCPU thread)
are competing for the iothread lock, a deadlock can happen.  This
is because iothread_requesting_mutex is set to false by the first
thread that gets the mutex, and then the VCPU thread might never
yield from the execution loop.  If iothread_requesting_mutex is
changed from a bool to a counter, the deadlock is fixed.

However, there is another bug in qemu_mutex_lock_iothread that
can be triggered by the new call_rcu thread.  The bug happens
if qemu_mutex_lock_iothread is called before the CPUs are
created.  In that case, first_cpu is NULL and the caller
segfaults in qemu_mutex_lock_iothread.  To fix this, just
do not do the kick if first_cpu is NULL.

efef88b3d9 qtest: Fix deadloop by running main loop AIO context's timers
qemu_clock_run_timers() only takes care of main_loop_tlg, we shouldn't
forget aio timer list groups.

Currently, the qemu_clock_deadline_ns_all (a few lines above) counts all
the timergroups of this clock type, including aio tlg, but we don't fire
them, so they are never cleared, which makes a dead loop.

For example, this function hangs when trying to drive throttled block
request queue with qtest clock_step.

3dd7852f19 s390x: Migrate to new NMI interface
This implements an NMI interface for s390 and s390-ccw machines.

This removes #ifdef s390 branch in qmp_inject_nmi so new s390's
nmi_monitor_handler() callback is going to be used for NMI.

Since nmi_monitor_handler()-calling code is platform independent,
CPUState::cpu_index is used instead of S390CPU::env.cpu_num.
There should not be any change in behaviour as both @cpu_index and
@cpu_num are global CPU numbers.

Note that s390_cpu_restart() already takes care of the specified cpu,
so we don't need to schedule via async_run_on_cpu().

Since the only error s390_cpu_restart() can return is ENOSYS, convert
it to QERR_UNSUPPORTED.

9cb805fd26 cpus: Define callback for QEMU "nmi" command
This introduces an NMI (Non Maskable Interrupt) interface with
a single nmi_monitor_handler() method. A machine or a device can
implement it. This searches for an QOM object with this interface
and if it is implemented, calls it. The callback implements an action
required to cause debug crash dump on in-kernel debugger invocation.
The callback returns Error**.

This adds a nmi_monitor_handle() helper which walks through
all objects to find the interface. The interface method is called
for all found instances.

This adds support for it in qmp_inject_nmi(). Since no architecture
supports it at the moment, there is no change in behaviour.

This changes inject-nmi command description for HMP and QMP.

c2aa5f8199 cpu-exec: Add sleeping algorithm
The goal is to sleep qemu whenever the guest clock
is in advance compared to the host clock (we use
the monotonic clocks). The amount of time to sleep
is calculated in the execution loop in cpu_exec.

At first, we tried to approximate at each for loop the real time elapsed
while searching for a TB (generating or retrieving from cache) and
executing it. We would then approximate the virtual time corresponding
to the number of virtual instructions executed. The difference between
these 2 values would allow us to know if the guest is in advance or delayed.
However, the function used for measuring the real time
(qemu_clock_get_ns(QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME)) proved to be very expensive.
We had an added overhead of 13% of the total run time.

Therefore, we modified the algorithm and only take into account the
difference between the 2 clocks at the begining of the cpu_exec function.
During the for loop we try to reduce the advance of the guest only by
computing the virtual time elapsed and sleeping if necessary. The overhead
is thus reduced to 3%. Even though this method still has a noticeable
overhead, it no longer is a bottleneck in trying to achieve a better
guest frequency for which the guest clock is faster than the host one.

As for the the alignement of the 2 clocks, with the first algorithm
the guest clock was oscillating between -1 and 1ms compared to the host clock.
Using the second algorithm we notice that the guest is 5ms behind the host, which
is still acceptable for our use case.

The tests where conducted using fio and stress. The host machine in an i5 CPU at
3.10GHz running Debian Jessie (kernel 3.12). The guest machine is an arm versatile-pb
built with buildroot.

Currently, on our test machine, the lowest icount we can achieve that is suitable for
aligning the 2 clocks is 6. However, we observe that the IO tests (using fio) are
slower than the cpu tests (using stress).

7146839505 icount: Fix virtual clock start value on ARM
When using the icount option on ARM, the virtual
clock starts counting at realtime clock but it
should start at 0.

The reason why the virtual clock starts at realtime clock
is because the first time we call qemu_clock_warp (which
calls icount_warp_rt) in tcg_exec_all, qemu_icount_bias
(which is part of the virtual time computation mechanism)
will increment by realtime - vm_clock_warp_start, with
vm_clock_warp_start being 0 (see icount_warp_rt in cpus.c).

By changing the value of vm_clock_warp_start from 0 to -1,
the first time we call qemu_clock_warp which calls
icount_warp_rt, we will return immediatly because
icount_warp_rt first checks if vm_clock_warp_start is -1
and if it's the case it returns. Therefore, qemu_icount_bias
will first be incremented by the value of a virtual timer
deadline when the virtual cpu goes from active to inactive.

The virtual time will start at 0 and increment based
on the instruction counter when the vcpu is active or
the qemu_icount_bias value when inactive.

74892d2468 vl: allow other threads to do qemu_system_vmstop_request
There patch protects vmstop_requested with a lock and introduces
qemu_system_vmstop_request_prepare.

Together with the new call to qemu_vmstop_requested in vm_start,
qemu_system_vmstop_request_prepare avoids a race where the VM could remain
stopped even though the iostatus of a block device has already been set
(for example).

qemu_system_vmstop_request_prepare however also lets the caller thread
delay observation of the state change until it has itself communicated
that change to the user.  This delay avoids any possibility of a wrong
reordering of the BLOCK_IO_ERROR event and the subsequent STOP event.

35d08458a9 savevm: Remove all the unneeded version_minimum_id_old (rest)
After previous Peter patch, they are redundant.  This way we don't
assign them except when needed.  Once there, there were lots of case
where the ".fields" indentation was wrong:

     .fields = (VMStateField []) {
and
     .fields =      (VMStateField []) {

Change all the combinations to:

     .fields = (VMStateField[]){

The biggest problem (appart from aesthetics) was that checkpatch complained
when we copy&pasted the code from one place to another.
