hw/arm/virt: Add 'compact-highmem' property
After the improvement to high memory region address assignment is
applied, the memory layout can be changed, introducing possible
migration breakage. For example, VIRT_HIGH_PCIE_MMIO memory region
is disabled or enabled when the optimization is applied or not, with
the following configuration. The configuration is only achievable by
modifying the source code until more properties are added to allow
users selectively disable those high memory regions.
pa_bits = 40;
vms->highmem_redists = false;
vms->highmem_ecam = false;
vms->highmem_mmio = true;
# qemu-system-aarch64 -accel kvm -cpu host \
-machine virt-7.2,compact-highmem={on, off} \
-m 4G,maxmem=511G -monitor stdio
Region compact-highmem=off compact-highmem=on
----------------------------------------------------------------
MEM [1GB 512GB] [1GB 512GB]
HIGH_GIC_REDISTS2 [512GB 512GB+64MB] [disabled]
HIGH_PCIE_ECAM [512GB+256MB 512GB+512MB] [disabled]
HIGH_PCIE_MMIO [disabled] [512GB 1TB]
In order to keep backwords compatibility, we need to disable the
optimization on machine, which is virt-7.1 or ealier than it. It
means the optimization is enabled by default from virt-7.2. Besides,
'compact-highmem' property is added so that the optimization can be
explicitly enabled or disabled on all machine types by users.
