2017-06-02spec/vhost-user spec: Add IOMMU supportMaxime Coquelin1-0/+84
This patch specifies and implements the master/slave communication to support device IOTLB in slave. The vhost_iotlb_msg structure introduced for kernel backends is re-used, making the design close between the two backends. An exception is the use of the secondary channel to enable the slave to send IOTLB miss requests to the master. Signed-off-by: Maxime Coquelin <maxime.coquelin@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S.

2017-05-12qemu-doc: Update to use the new way of attaching USB devicesThomas Huth1-4/+2
The preferred way of adding USB devices is via "-device" and "device_add" nowadays, so let's start to get rid of "-usbdevice" and "usb_add" in the documentation. While we're at it, also add the new USB devices there which have been added to QEMU during the last years, and get rid of the old "vendorid" and "productid" parameters of "-usbdevice serial" which have been removed in QEMU version 0.14.0 already.

2017-03-28trace: fix tcg tracing build breakageStefan Hajnoczi1-0/+3
Commit 0ab8ed18a6fe98bfc82705b0f041fbf2a8ca5b60 ("trace: switch to modular code generation for sub-directories") forgot to convert "tcg" trace events to the modular code generation approach where each sub-directory has its own trace-events file. This patch fixes compilation for "tcg" trace events. Currently they are only used in the root ./trace-events file. "tcg" trace events can only be used in the root ./trace-events file for the time being. Reported-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Tested-by: Emilio G.

2017-03-16qapi: The #optional tag is redundant, dropMarkus Armbruster2-9/+7
We traditionally mark optional members #optional in the doc comment. Before commit 3313b61, this was entirely manual. Commit 3313b61 added some automation because its qapi2texi.py relied on #optional to determine whether a member is optional. This is no longer the case since the previous commit: the only thing qapi2texi.py still does with #optional is stripping it out. We still reject bogus qapi-schema.json and six places for qga/qapi-schema.json. Thus, you can't actually rely on #optional to see whether something is optional. Yet we still make people add it manually. That's just busy-work. Drop the code to check, fix up and strip out #optional, along with all instances of #optional. To keep it out, add code to reject it, to be dropped again once the dust settles. No change to generated documentation.

2017-03-16qapi: Make doc comments optional where we don't need themMarkus Armbruster1-13/+30
Since we added the documentation generator in commit 3313b61, doc comments are mandatory. That's a very good idea for a schema that needs to be documented, but has proven to be annoying for testing. Make doc comments optional again, but add a new directive { 'pragma': { 'doc-required': true } } to let a QAPI schema require them. Add test cases for the new pragma directive. While there, plug a minor hole in includ directive test coverage. Require documentation in the schemas we actually want documented: qapi-schema.json and qga/qapi-schema.json. We could probably make qapi2texi.py cope with incomplete documentation, but for now, simply make it refuse to run unless the schema has 'doc-required': true.

2017-01-18fw-cfg: bump "x-file-slots" to 0x20 for 2.9+ machine typesLaszlo Ersek1-2/+2
More precisely, the "x-file-slots" count is bumped for all machine types that: (a) use fw_cfg, and (b) are not versioned (hence migration is not expected to work for them across QEMU releases anyway), or have version 2.9. This affects machine types implemented in the following source files: - "hw/arm/virt.c". The "virt-*" machine type is versioned, and the <= 2.8 versions already depend on HW_COMPAT_2_8 (see commit e353aac51b944). Therefore adding the "x-file-slots" compat values to HW_COMPAT_2_8 suffices. - "hw/i386/pc.c". The "pc-i440fx-*" (including "pc-*") and "pc-q35-*" machine types are versioned. Modifying HW_COMPAT_2_8 is sufficient here too (see commit "pc: Add 2.9 machine-types"). The "isapc" machtype is not versioned. The "xenfv" machine type, which uses fw_cfg for direct kernel booting, is also not versioned. - "hw/ppc/mac_newworld.c". The "mac99" machine type is not versioned. - "hw/ppc/mac_oldworld.c".

2017-01-18fw-cfg: turn FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS into a device propertyLaszlo Ersek1-1/+1
We'd like to raise the value of FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS. Doing it naively could lead to problems with backward migration: a more recent QEMU (running an older machine type) would allow the guest, in fw_cfg_select(), to select a high key value that is unavailable in the same machine type implemented by the older (target) QEMU. On the target host, fw_cfg_data_read() for example could dereference nonexistent entries. As first step, size the FWCfgState.entries[*] and FWCfgState.entry_order arrays dynamically. All three array sizes will be influenced by the new field FWCfgState.file_slots (and matching device property). Make the following changes: - Replace the FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS macro with FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS_MIN (minimum count of fw_cfg file slots) in the header file. The value remains 0x10. - Replace all uses of FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS with a helper function called fw_cfg_file_slots(), returning the new property. - Eliminate the macro FW_CFG_MAX_ENTRY, and replace all its uses with a helper function called fw_cfg_max_entry(). - In the MMIO- and IO-mapped realize functions both, allocate all three arrays dynamically, based on the new property. - The new property defaults to FW_CFG_FILE_SLOTS_MIN. This is going to be customized in the following patches. Cc: "Gabriel L. Somlo" <somlo@cmu.edu> Cc: "Michael S.

Useful to send guest data back to QEMU. Changes from Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com>: - rebase the patch from Michael Tsirkin's original postings at [1] and [2] to the following patches: - loader: Allow a custom AddressSpace when loading ROMs - loader: Add AddressSpace loading support to uImages - loader: fix handling of custom address spaces when adding ROM blobs - reject such writes immediately that would exceed the end of the array, rather than performing a partial write before setting the error bit: see the (len != dma.length) condition - document the write interface [1] http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-02/msg04968.html [2] http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-03/msg02735.html Cc: "Gabriel L.

2017-01-16qemu-thread: introduce QemuLockCntPaolo Bonzini1-0/+278
A QemuLockCnt comprises a counter and a mutex, with primitives to increment and decrement the counter, and to take and release the mutex. It can be used to do lock-free visits to a data structure whenever mutexes would be too heavy-weight and the critical section is too long for RCU. This could be implemented simply by protecting the counter with the mutex, but QemuLockCnt is harder to misuse and more efficient.

2017-01-16qapi: add qapi2texi scriptMarc-André Lureau1-33/+147
As the name suggests, the qapi2texi script converts JSON QAPI description into a texi file suitable for different target formats (info/man/txt/pdf/html...). It parses the following kind of blocks: Free-form: ## # = Section # == Subsection # # Some text foo with *emphasis* # 1. with a list # 2. like that # # And some code: # | $ echo foo # | -> do this # | <- get that # ## Symbol description: ## # @symbol: # # Symbol body ditto ergo sum. Foo bar # baz ding. # # @param1: the frob to frobnicate # @param2: #optional how hard to frobnicate # # Returns: the frobnicated frob. # If frob isn't frobnicatable, GenericError. # # Since: version # Notes: notes, comments can have # - itemized list # - like this # # Example: # # -> { "execute": "quit" } # <- { "return": {} } # ## That's roughly following the following EBNF grammar: api_comment = "##\n" comment "##\n" comment = freeform_comment | symbol_comment freeform_comment = { "# " text "\n" | "#\n" } symbol_comment = "# @" name ":\n" { member | tag_section | freeform_comment } member = "# @" name ':' [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment tag_section = "# " ( "Returns:", "Since:", "Note:", "Notes:", "Example:", "Examples:" ) [ text ] "\n" freeform_comment text = free text with markup Note that the grammar is ambiguous: a line "# @foo:\n" can be parsed both as freeform_comment and as symbol_comment. The actual parser recognizes symbol_comment. See docs/qapi-code-gen.txt for more details. Deficiencies and limitations: - the generated QMP documentation includes internal types - union type support is lacking - type information is lacking in generated documentation - doc comment error message positions are imprecise, they point to the beginning of the comment. - a few minor issues, all marked TODO/FIXME in the code Signed-off-by: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20170113144135.5150-16-marcandre.lureau@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> [test-qapi.py tweaked to avoid trailing empty lines in .out] Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
