Add a parameter for dirty gfn count for dirty rings. If zero, dirty ring is disabled. Otherwise dirty ring will be enabled with the per-vcpu gfn count as specified. If dirty ring cannot be enabled due to unsupported kernel or illegal parameter, it'll fallback to dirty logging. By default, dirty ring is not enabled (dirty-gfn-count default to 0).

2021-05-14hw/smbios: support for type 41 (onboard devices extended information)Vincent Bernat1-1/+29
Type 41 defines the attributes of devices that are onboard. The original intent was to imply the BIOS had some level of control over the enablement of the associated devices. If network devices are present in this table, by default, udev will name the corresponding interfaces enoX, X being the instance number. Without such information, udev will fallback to using the PCI ID and this usually gives ens3 or ens4. This can be a bit annoying as the name of the network card may depend on the order of options and may change if a new PCI device is added earlier on the commande line. Being able to provide SMBIOS type 41 entry ensure the name of the interface won't change and helps the user guess the right name without booting a first time. This can be invoked with: $QEMU -netdev user,id=internet -device virtio-net-pci,mac=50:54:00:00:00:42,netdev=internet,id=internet-dev \ -smbios type=41,designation='Onboard LAN',instance=1,kind=ethernet,pcidev=internet-dev The PCI segment is assumed to be 0. This should hold true for most cases. $ dmidecode -t 41 # dmidecode 3.3 Getting SMBIOS data from sysfs. SMBIOS 2.8 present.

2021-03-19qemu-options: New -compat to set policy for deprecated interfacesMarkus Armbruster1-0/+20
New option -compat lets you configure what to do when deprecated interfaces get used. This is intended for testing users of the management interfaces. It is experimental. -compat deprecated-input=<input-policy> configures what to do when deprecated input is received. Input policy can be "accept" (accept silently), or "reject" (reject the request with an error). -compat deprecated-output=<out-policy> configures what to do when deprecated output is sent. Output policy can be "accept" (pass on unchanged), or "hide" (filter out the deprecated parts). Default is "accept". Policies other than "accept" are implemented later in this series. For now, -compat covers only syntactic aspects of QMP, i.e. stuff tagged with feature 'deprecated'. We may want to extend it to cover semantic aspects, CLI, and experimental features. Note that there is no good way for management application to detect presence of -compat: it's not visible output of query-qmp-schema or query-command-line-options. Tolerable, because it's meant for testing. If running with -compat fails, skip the test.

The "delay" option was introduced as a way to enable Nagle's algorithm with ",nodelay". Since the short form for boolean options has now been deprecated, introduce a more properly named "nodelay" option. The "delay" option remains as an undocumented option. "delay" and "nodelay" are mutually exclusive. Because the check is done at consumption time, the code also rejects them if one of the two is specified via -set.

2021-01-21runstate: cleanup reboot and panic actionsPaolo Bonzini1-4/+4
The possible choices for panic, reset and watchdog actions are inconsistent. "-action panic=poweroff" should be renamed to "-action panic=shutdown" on the command line. This is because "-action panic=poweroff" and "-action watchdog=poweroff" have slightly different semantics, the first does an unorderly exit while the second goes through qemu_cleanup(). With this change, -no-shutdown would not have to change "-action panic=pause" "pause", just like it does not have to change the reset action. "-action reboot=none" should be renamed to "-action reboot=reset". This should be self explanatory, since for example "-action panic=none" lets the guest proceed without taking any action.

2021-01-15ui: add support for remote power control to VNC serverDaniel P. Berrangé1-0/+4
The "XVP" (Xen VNC Proxy) extension defines a mechanism for a VNC client to issue power control requests to trigger graceful shutdown, reboot, or hard reset. This option is not enabled by default, since we cannot assume that users with VNC access implicitly have administrator access to the guest OS. Thus is it enabled with a boolean "power-control" option e.g. -vnc :1,power-control=on While, QEMU can easily support shutdown and reset, there's no easy way to wire up reboot support at this time. In theory it could be done by issuing a shutdown, followed by a reset, but there's no convenient wiring for such a pairing in QEMU. It also isn't possible to have the VNC server directly talk to QEMU guest agent, since the agent chardev is typically owned by an external mgmt app. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

2020-12-15vl: Add option to avoid stopping VM upon guest panicAlejandro Jimenez1-0/+3
The current default action of pausing a guest after a panic event is received leaves the responsibility to resume guest execution to the management layer. The reasons for this behavior are discussed here: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/52148F88.5000509@redhat.com/ However, in instances like the case of older guests (Linux and Windows) using a pvpanic device but missing support for the PVPANIC_CRASHLOADED event, and Windows guests using the hv-crash enlightenment, it is desirable to allow the guests to continue running after sending a PVPANIC_PANICKED event. This allows such guests to proceed to capture a crash dump and automatically reboot without intervention of a management layer. Add an option to avoid stopping a VM after a panic event is received, by passing: -action panic=none in the command line arguments, or during runtime by using an upcoming QMP command.

2020-12-15vl: Add an -action option specifying response to guest eventsAlejandro Jimenez1-0/+22
Several command line options currently in use are meant to modify the behavior of QEMU in response to certain guest events like: -no-reboot, -no-shutdown, -watchdog-action. These can be grouped into a single option of the form: -action event=action Which can be used to specify the existing options above in the following format: -action reboot=none|shutdown -action shutdown=poweroff|pause -action watchdog=reset|shutdown|poweroff|pause|debug|none|inject-nmi This is done in preparation for adding yet another option of this type, which modifies the QEMU behavior when a guest panic occurs.

2020-12-13qemu-options.hx: Fix minor issues in icount documentationPeter Maydell1-19/+25
The documentation for the icount documentation has some minor issues: * in a couple of places it says "sleep=on|off" when in the context of the sentence it means specifically "sleep=on" * the synopsis line for the documentation has drifted out of sync with the synopsis line in the DEF() macro (used for "-help" output) * the synopsis line in the DEF() macro is missing a "][" between the sleep= part and the rr= part * the synopsis line doesn't indicate that rrsnapshot is an optional part of the rr=mode,rrfile=filename subgrouping * we don't document that sleep=on can't be used with shift=auto or align=on * the rr option description had some minor grammar and formatting errors and was a bit terse * in commit f1f4b57e88ff in 2015 the documentation of the sleep= suboption got added between the two paragraphs defining general behaviour of the icount option. This meant that the second paragraph talking about the behaviour of "this option" reads as if it's talking about sleep=on, when it's really describing -icount as a whole. The paragraph is better moved back up to above the sleep= section. * the summary text displayed in "-help" output didn't mention the record-and-replay part Fix these errors.

2020-11-20docs: Get rid of the weird _005f links in the man pageThomas Huth1-18/+20
The man page does not contain all the chapters from the System Emulation Users Guide, so some of the links that we've put into the qemu options descriptions can not be resolved and thus the link names are used in the man pages instead. These link names currently contain weird "_005f" letters in the middle and just do not make any sense for the users. To avoid this situation, replace the link names with more descriptive, natural text.

2020-09-16manual: escape backslashes in "parsed-literal" blocksLaszlo Ersek1-54/+54
According to <https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/directives.html#parsed-literal>, "inline markup is recognized and there is no protection from parsing. Backslash-escapes may be necessary to prevent unintended parsing". The qemu(1) manual page (formatted with Sphinx 2.2.2) has several overlong lines on my system. A stand-alone backslash at EOL serves as line continuation in a "parsed-literal" block. Therefore, escape the backslashes that we want to appear as such in the formatted documentation.
