2021-10-05meson: switch minimum meson version to 0.58.2, minimum recommended to 0.59.2Paolo Bonzini1-7/+7
Meson 0.58.2 does not need b_staticpic=$pie anymore, and has stabilized the keyval module. Remove the workaround and use a few replacements for features deprecated in the 0.57.0 release cycle. One feature that we would like to use is passing dependencies to summary. However, that was broken in 0.59.0 and 0.59.1. Therefore, use the embedded Meson if the host has anything older than 0.59.2, but allow --meson= to use 0.58.2.

2021-10-01i386: Change the default Hyper-V version to match WS2016Vitaly Kuznetsov1-1/+1
KVM implements some Hyper-V 2016 functions so providing WS2008R2 version is somewhat incorrect. While generally guests shouldn't care about it and always check feature bits, it is known that some tools in Windows actually check version info. For compatibility reasons make the change for 6.2 machine types only.

Currently, we hardcode Hyper-V version id (CPUID 0x40000002) to WS2008R2 and it is known that certain tools in Windows check this. It seems useful to provide some flexibility by making it possible to change this info at will.

2021-10-01i386: Implement pseudo 'hv-avic' ('hv-apicv') enlightenmentVitaly Kuznetsov1-1/+9
The enlightenment allows to use Hyper-V SynIC with hardware APICv/AVIC enabled. Normally, Hyper-V SynIC disables these hardware features and suggests the guest to use paravirtualized AutoEOI feature. Linux-4.15 gains support for conditional APICv/AVIC disablement, the feature stays on until the guest tries to use AutoEOI feature with SynIC. With 'HV_DEPRECATING_AEOI_RECOMMENDED' bit exposed, modern enough Windows/ Hyper-V versions should follow the recommendation and not use the (unwanted) feature.

By default, KVM allows the guest to use all currently supported Hyper-V enlightenments when Hyper-V CPUID interface was exposed, regardless of if some features were not announced in guest visible CPUIDs. hv-enforce-cpuid feature alters this behavior and only allows the guest to use exposed Hyper-V enlightenments.

2021-10-01machine: Deprecate "parameter=0" SMP configurationsYanan Wang1-0/+15
In the SMP configuration, we should either provide a topology parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just omit it and QEMU will compute the missing value. The users shouldn't provide a configuration with any parameter of it specified as zero (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) which could possibly cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So we deprecate this kind of configurations since 6.2 by adding the explicit sanity check.

At this moment we only provide one event to report a hotunplug error, MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR. As of Linux kernel 5.12 and QEMU 6.0.0, the pseries machine is now able to report unplug errors for other device types, such as CPUs. Instead of creating a (device_type)_UNPLUG_ERROR for each new device, create a generic DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR event that can be used by all guest side unplug errors in the future. This event has a similar API as the existing DEVICE_DELETED event, always providing the QOM path of the device and dev->id if there's any. With this new generic event, MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR is now marked as deprecated.

2021-09-29qemu-nbd: Change default cache mode to writebackNir Soffer1-2/+4
Both qemu and qemu-img use writeback cache mode by default, which is already documented in qemu(1). qemu-nbd uses writethrough cache mode by default, and the default cache mode is not documented. According to the qemu-nbd(8): --cache=CACHE The cache mode to be used with the file. See the documentation of the emulator's -drive cache=... option for allowed values. qemu(1) says: The default mode is cache=writeback. So users have no reason to assume that qemu-nbd is using writethough cache mode. The only hint is the painfully slow writing when using the defaults. Looking in git history, it seems that qemu used writethrough in the past to support broken guests that did not flush data properly, or could not flush due to limitations in qemu. But qemu-nbd clients can use NBD_CMD_FLUSH to flush data, so using writethrough does not help anyone. Change the default cache mode to writback, and document the default and available values properly in the online help and manual. With this change converting image via qemu-nbd is 3.5 times faster. $ qemu-img create dst.img 50g $ qemu-nbd -t -f raw -k /tmp/nbd.sock dst.img Before this change: $ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock" Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock Time (mean ± σ): 83.639 s ± 5.970 s [User: 2.733 s, System: 6.112 s] Range (min … max): 76.749 s … 87.245 s 3 runs After this change: $ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock" Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock Time (mean ± σ): 23.522 s ± 0.433 s [User: 2.083 s, System: 5.475 s] Range (min … max): 23.234 s … 24.019 s 3 runs Users can avoid the issue by using --cache=writeback[1] but the defaults should give good performance for the common use case.

2021-09-15qemu-img: Add -F shorthand to convertEric Blake1-2/+2
Although we have long supported 'qemu-img convert -o backing_file=foo,backing_fmt=bar', the fact that we have a shortcut -B for backing_file but none for backing_fmt has made it more likely that users accidentally run into: qemu-img: warning: Deprecated use of backing file without explicit backing format when using -B instead of -o. For similarity with other qemu-img commands, such as create and compare, add '-F $fmt' as the shorthand for '-o backing_fmt=$fmt'. Update iotest 122 for coverage of both spellings.

2021-09-13docs/system: move x86 CPU configuration to a separate documentPaolo Bonzini3-3/+10
Currently, cpu-models-x86.rst.inc is included in target-i386.rst directly. To make the toctree more homogeneous when adding more documentation, include it through a first-class .rst file. Together with the previous changes to the man page skeletons, this also frees "===" for the headings, so that cpu-models-x86.rst.inc need not assume anything about the headings used by target-i386.rst.

2021-09-13docs/system: standardize man page sections to --- with overlinePaolo Bonzini3-3/+14
Man pages in docs/system use file inclusion heavily. Use headings with overlines in the main files, so that the same included file work well from both manuals and man pages. This style of heading is a bit more heavy-weight, so it is not used by the other man pages in interop/ and tools/. If in the future they are changed to use include files, for example to avoid having sections named "synopsis" or "description", they can switch to --- with overline as well.

2021-09-13docs: standardize directory index to --- with overlinePaolo Bonzini7-7/+14
Use a standard heading format for the index.rst file in a directory. Using overlines makes it clear that individual documents can use e.g. === for chapter titles and --- for section titles, as suggested in the Linux kernel guidelines[1]. They could do it anyway, because documents included in a toctree are parsed separately and therefore are not tied to the same conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is useful since sometimes files are included from multiple places.

2021-09-13docs: standardize book titles to === with overlinePaolo Bonzini9-2/+11
Documents within a Sphinx manual are separate files and therefore can use different conventions for headings. However, keeping some consistency is useful so that included files are easy to get right. This patch uses a standard heading format for book titles, so that it is obvious when a file sits at the top level toctree of a book or man page. The heading is irrelevant for man pages, but keep it consistent as well. Reviewed-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

It's not that much complicated to type "-display sdl" or "-display curses", so we should not clutter our main option name space with such simple wrapper options and rather present the users with a concise interface instead. Thus let's deprecate the "-sdl" and "-curses" wrapper options now.

2021-09-06softmmu/vl: Deprecate the old grab optionsThomas Huth1-0/+10
The alt_grab and ctrl_grab parameter of the -display sdl option prevent the QAPIfication of the "sdl" part of the -display option, so we should eventually remove them. And since this feature is also rather niche anyway, we should not clutter the top-level option list with these, so let's also deprecate the "-alt-grab" and the "-ctrl-grab" options while we're at it. Once the deprecation period of "alt_grab" and "ctrl_grab" is over, we then can finally switch the -display sdl option to use QAPI internally, too.
