2018-06-27trace: forbid floating point typesStefan Hajnoczi1-0/+5
Only one existing trace event uses a floating point type. Unfortunately float and double cannot be supported since SystemTap does not have floating point types. Remove float and double from the whitelist and document this limitation. Update the migrate_transferred trace event to use uint64_t instead of double.

2018-06-22qapi: allow empty branches in flat unionsAnton Nefedov1-3/+5
It often happens that just a few discriminator values imply extra data in a flat union. Existing checks did not make possible to leave other values uncovered. Such cases had to be worked around by either stating a dummy (empty) type or introducing another (subset) discriminator enumeration. Both options create redundant entities in qapi files for little profit. With this patch it is not necessary anymore to add designated union fields for every possible value of a discriminator enumeration.

2018-06-15tcg: remove tb_lockEmilio G. Cota1-4/+7
Use mmap_lock in user-mode to protect TCG state and the page descriptors. In !user-mode, each vCPU has its own TCG state, so no locks needed. Per-page locks are used to protect the page descriptors. Per-TB locks are used in both modes to protect TB jumps. Some notes: - tb_lock is removed from notdirty_mem_write by passing a locked page_collection to tb_invalidate_phys_page_fast. - tcg_tb_lookup/remove/insert/etc have their own internal lock(s), so there is no need to further serialize access to them. - do_tb_flush is run in a safe async context, meaning no other vCPU threads are running. Therefore acquiring mmap_lock there is just to please tools such as thread sanitizer. - Not visible in the diff, but tb_invalidate_phys_page already has an assert_memory_lock. - cpu_io_recompile is !user-only, so no mmap_lock there. - Added mmap_unlock()'s before all siglongjmp's that could be called in user-mode while mmap_lock is held. + Added an assert for !have_mmap_lock() after returning from the longjmp in cpu_exec, just like we do in cpu_exec_step_atomic.

2018-06-15translate-all: protect TB jumps with a per-destination-TB lockEmilio G. Cota1-2/+4
This applies to both user-mode and !user-mode emulation. Instead of relying on a global lock, protect the list of incoming jumps with tb->jmp_lock. This lock also protects tb->cflags, so update all tb->cflags readers outside tb->jmp_lock to use atomic reads via tb_cflags(). In order to find the destination TB (and therefore its jmp_lock) from the origin TB, we introduce tb->jmp_dest[]. I considered not using a linked list of jumps, which simplifies code and makes the struct smaller. However, it unnecessarily increases memory usage, which results in a performance decrease. See for instance these numbers booting+shutting down debian-arm: Time (s) Rel. err (%) Abs. err (s) Rel. slowdown (%) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ before 20.88 0.74 0.154512 0. after 20.81 0.38 0.079078 -0.33524904 GTree 21.02 0.28 0.058856 0.67049808 GHashTable + xxhash 21.63 1.08 0.233604 3.5919540 Using a hash table or a binary tree to keep track of the jumps doesn't really pay off, not only due to the increased memory usage, but also because most TBs have only 0 or 1 jumps to them. The maximum number of jumps when booting debian-arm that I measured is 35, but as we can see in the histogram below a TB with that many incoming jumps is extremely rare; the average TB has 0.80 incoming jumps. n_jumps: 379208; avg jumps/tb: 0.801099 dist: [0.0,1.0)|▄█▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ ▁▁▁▁▁▁ ▁▁▁ ▁▁▁ ▁|[34.0,35.0] Reviewed-by: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Emilio G.

There's a common pattern in QEMU where a function needs to perform a data load or store of an N byte integer in a particular endianness. At the moment this is handled by doing a switch() on the size and calling the appropriate ld*_p or st*_p function for each size. Provide a new family of functions ldn_*_p() and stn_*_p() which take the size as an argument and do the switch() themselves.

2018-05-15docs: Document the new default sizes of the qcow2 cachesAlberto Garcia1-17/+16
We have just reduced the refcount cache size to the minimum unless the user explicitly requests a larger one, so we have to update the documentation to reflect this change.

2018-05-14net: Remove the deprecated "vlan" parameterThomas Huth1-3/+0
It's been marked as deprecated since QEMU v2.9.0, so that should have been enough time for everybody to either just drop unnecessary "vlan=0" parameters, to switch to the modern -device + -netdev syntax for connecting guest NICs with host network backends, or to switch to the "hubport" netdev in case hubs are really wanted instead.

2018-05-04qobject: Replace qobject_incref/QINCREF qobject_decref/QDECREFMarc-André Lureau1-1/+1
Now that we can safely call QOBJECT() on QObject * as well as its subtypes, we can have macros qobject_ref() / qobject_unref() that work everywhere instead of having to use QINCREF() / QDECREF() for QObject and qobject_incref() / qobject_decref() for its subtypes. The replacement is mechanical, except I broke a long line, and added a cast in monitor_qmp_cleanup_req_queue_locked(). Unlike qobject_decref(), qobject_unref() doesn't accept void *. Note that the new macros evaluate their argument exactly once, thus no need to shout them.

2018-04-09vhost-user: back SET/GET_CONFIG requests with a protocol featureMaxime Coquelin1-9/+12
Without a dedicated protocol feature, QEMU cannot know whether the backend can handle VHOST_USER_SET_CONFIG and VHOST_USER_GET_CONFIG messages. This patch adds a protocol feature that is only advertised by QEMU if the device implements the config ops. Vhost user init fails if the device support the feature but the backend doesn't. The backend should only send VHOST_USER_SLAVE_CONFIG_CHANGE_MSG requests if the protocol feature has been negotiated.

We need a better way, but at the moment we need the address of the mappings sent back to qemu so it can interpret the messages on the userfaultfd it reads. This is done as a 3 stage set: QEMU -> client set_mem_table mmap stuff, get addresses client -> qemu here are the addresses qemu -> client OK - now you can use them That ensures that qemu has registered the new addresses in it's userfault code before the client starts accessing them.

2018-03-12replay: push replay_mutex_lock up the call treeAlex Bennée1-0/+22
Now instead of using the replay_lock to guard the output of the log we now use it to protect the whole execution section. This replaces what the BQL used to do when it was held during TCG execution. We also introduce some rules for locking order - mainly that you cannot take the replay_mutex while holding the BQL. This leads to some slight sophistry during start-up and extending the replay_mutex_destroy function to unlock the mutex without checking for the BQL condition so it can be cleanly dropped in the non-replay case.
