4728b57410 hostmem: introduce host_memory_backend_mr_inited()
We were checking this against memory region size of host memory
backend's mr field to see whether the mr has been inited. This is
efficient but less elegant. Let's make a helper for it to avoid
confusions, along with some notes.

658ae5a7b9 Revert "hostmem: fix QEMU crash by 'info memdev'"
This reverts commit 1454d33f05.

The string input visitor regression fixed in the previous commit made
visit_type_uint16List() fail on empty input.  query_memdev() calls it
via object_property_get_uint16List().  Because it doesn't expect it to
fail, it passes &error_abort, and duly crashes.

Commit 1454d33 "fixes" this crash by making
host_memory_backend_get_host_nodes() return a list containing just
MAX_NODES instead of the empty list.  Papers over the regression, and
leads to bogus "info memdev" output, as shown below; revert.

I suspect that if we had bisected the crash back then, we would have
found and fixed the actual bug instead of papering over it.

To reproduce, run HMP command "info memdev" with

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 --nodefaults -S -display none -monitor stdio -object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=4k

With this commit, "info memdev" prints

    memory backend: mem1
      size:  4096
      merge: true
      dump: true
      prealloc: false
      policy: default
      host nodes:

exactly like before commit 74f24cb.

Between commit 1454d33 and this commit, it prints

    memory backend: mem1
      size:  4096
      merge: true
      dump: true
      prealloc: false
      policy: default
      host nodes: 128

The last line is bogus.

Between commit 74f24cb and 1454d33, it crashes like this:

    Unexpected error in parse_str() at /work/armbru/tmp/qemu/qapi/string-input-visitor.c:126:

1e356fc14b mem-prealloc: reduce large guest start-up and migration time.
Using "-mem-prealloc" option for a large guest leads to higher guest
start-up and migration time. This is because with "-mem-prealloc" option
qemu tries to map every guest page (create address translations), and
make sure the pages are available during runtime. virsh/libvirt by
default, seems to use "-mem-prealloc" option in case the guest is
configured to use huge pages. The patch tries to map all guest pages
simultaneously by spawning multiple threads. Currently limiting the
change to QEMU library functions on POSIX compliant host only, as we are
not sure if the problem exists on win32. Below are some stats with
"-mem-prealloc" option for guest configured to use huge pages.

Changed in v2:

 - removed 64GB memory restriction for spawning memset threads.

Changed in v3:
 - limit number of threads spawned based on
   min(sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN), 16, smp_cpus)
 - implement memset thread specific siglongjmp in SIGBUS signal_handler.

Changed in v4
 - remove sigsetjmp/siglongjmp and SIGBUS unblock/block for main thread
   as main thread no longer touches any pages.
 - simplify code my returning memset_thread_failed status from
   touch_all_pages.

e1ff3c67e8 monitor: fix qmp/hmp query-memdev not reporting IDs of memory backends
Considering 'id' is mandatory for user_creatable objects/backends
and user_creatable_add_type() always has it as an argument
regardless of where from it is called CLI/monitor or QMP,
Fix issue by adding 'id' property to hostmem backends and
set it in user_creatable_add_type() for every object that
implements 'id' property. Then later at query-memdev time
get 'id' from object directly.

056b68af77 fix qemu exit on memory hotplug when allocation fails at prealloc time
When adding hostmem backend at runtime, QEMU might exit with error:
  "os_mem_prealloc: Insufficient free host memory pages available to allocate guest RAM"

It happens due to os_mem_prealloc() not handling errors gracefully.

Fix it by passing errp argument so that os_mem_prealloc() could
report error to callers and undo performed allocation when
os_mem_prealloc() fails.

2aece63c8a hostmem: detect host backend memory is being used properly
Currently, we use memory_region_is_mapped() to detect if the host
backend memory is being used. This works if the memory is directly
mapped into guest's address space, however, it is not true for
nvdimm as it uses aliased memory region to map the memory. This is
why this bug can happen:
   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1352769

Fix it by introduce a new filed, is_mapped, to HostMemoryBackend,

da34e65cb4 include/qemu/osdep.h: Don't include qapi/error.h
Commit 57cb38b included qapi/error.h into qemu/osdep.h to get the
Error typedef.  Since then, we've moved to include qemu/osdep.h
everywhere.  Its file comment explains: "To avoid getting into
possible circular include dependencies, this file should not include
any other QEMU headers, with the exceptions of config-host.h,
compiler.h, os-posix.h and os-win32.h, all of which are doing a
similar job to this file and are under similar constraints."
qapi/error.h doesn't do a similar job, and it doesn't adhere to
similar constraints: it includes qapi-types.h.  That's in excess of
100KiB of crap most .c files don't actually need.

Add the typedef to qemu/typedefs.h, and include that instead of
qapi/error.h.  Include qapi/error.h in .c files that need it and don't
get it now.  Include qapi-types.h in qom/object.h for uint16List.

Update scripts/clean-includes accordingly.  Update it further to match
reality: replace config.h by config-target.h, add sysemu/os-posix.h,
sysemu/os-win32.h.  Update the list of includes in the qemu/osdep.h
comment quoted above similarly.

This reduces the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h from "all
of them" to less than a third.  Unfortunately, the number depending on
qapi-types.h shrinks only a little.  More work is needed for that one.

d7bce9999d qom: Swap 'name' next to visitor in ObjectPropertyAccessor
Similar to the previous patch, it's nice to have all functions

(Coccinelle insisted on adding some trailing whitespace).

51e72bc1dd qapi: Swap visit_* arguments for consistent 'name' placement
JSON uses "name":value, but many of our visitor interfaces were
called with visit_type_FOO(v, &value, name, errp).  This can be
a bit confusing to have to mentally swap the parameter order to
match JSON order.  It's particularly bad for visit_start_struct(),
where the 'name' parameter is smack in the middle of the
otherwise-related group of 'obj, kind, size' parameters! It's
time to do a global swap of the parameter ordering, so that the
'name' parameter is always immediately after the Visitor argument.

Additional reason in favor of the swap: the existing include/qjson.h
prefers listing 'name' first in json_prop_*(), and I have plans to
unify that file with the qapi visitors; listing 'name' first in
qapi will minimize churn to the (admittedly few) qjson.h clients.

Later patches will then fix docs, object.h, visitor-impl.h, and
those clients to match.

Done by first patching scripts/qapi*.py by hand to make generated
files do what I want, then by running the following Coccinelle
script to affect the rest of the code base:
 $ spatch --sp-file script `git grep -l '\bvisit_' -- '**/*.[ch]'`
I then had to apply some touchups (Coccinelle insisted on TAB
indentation in visitor.h, and botched the signature of
visit_type_enum() by rewriting 'const char *const strings[]' to
the syntactically invalid 'const char*const[] strings').  The
movement of parameters is sufficient to provoke compiler errors
if any callers were missed.

a3567ba1e6 hostmem: Ignore ENOSYS while setting MPOL_DEFAULT
Currently hostmem backend fails if CONFIG_NUMA is enabled in QEMU
(the default) but NUMA is not supported by the kernel. This makes
it impossible to use ivshmem in such configurations.

This patch fixes the problem by ignoring ENOSYS error if policy is set to
MPOL_DEFAULT. This way the code behaves in the same way as if CONFIG_NUMA
was not defined. qemu will still fail if the user specifies some other
policy, so that the user knows it.

1f07048933 add memdev backend infrastructure
Provides framework for splitting host RAM allocation/
policies into a separate backend that could be used
by devices.

Initially only legacy RAM backend is provided, which
uses memory_region_init_ram() allocator and compatible
with every CLI option that affects memory_region_init_ram().
