This patch adds very basic KVM support. KVM is a kernel module for Linux that
allows userspace programs to make use of hardware virtualization support. It
current supports x86 hardware virtualization using Intel VT-x or AMD-V. It
also supports IA64 VT-i, PPC 440, and S390.
This patch only implements the bare minimum support to get a guest booting. It
has very little impact the rest of QEMU and attempts to integrate nicely with
the rest of QEMU.
Even though this implementation is basic, it is significantly faster than TCG.
Booting and shutting down a Linux guest:
w/TCG: 1:32.36 elapsed 84% CPU
w/KVM: 0:31.14 elapsed 59% CPU
Right now, KVM is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled with
-enable-kvm. We can enable it by default later when we have had better
testing.

With the recent changes to the main loop, we no longer have unconditional
polling. This means we can now sleep in select() for much longer than we
previously did. This patch increases our select() sleep time from 10ms to 5s
which is effectively unlimited since we're going to wake up sooner than that
in almost all circumstances.
With this patch, I see the number of wake-ups with an idle dynamic ticks guest
drop from 80 per second to about 15 times per second.

This patch makes qemu keep track of the character devices in use and
implements a "info chardev" monitor command to print a list.
qemu_chr_open() sticks the devices into a linked list now. It got a new
argument (label), so there is a name for each device. It also assigns a
filename to each character device. By default it just copyes the
filename passed in. Individual drivers can fill in something else
though. qemu_chr_open_pty() sets the filename to name of the pseudo tty
allocated.
Output looks like this:
(qemu) info chardev
monitor: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/monitor,server,nowait
serial0: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/console,server
serial1: filename=pty:/dev/pts/5

The current DMA routines are driven by a call in main_loop_wait() after every
select.
This patch converts the DMA code to be driven by a constantly rescheduled
bottom half. The advantage of using a scheduled bottom half is that we can
stop scheduling the bottom half when there no DMA channels are runnable. This
means we can potentially detect this case and sleep longer in the main loop.
The only two architectures implementing DMA_run() are cris and i386. For cris,
I converted it to a simple repeating bottom half. I've only compile tested
this as cris does not seem to work on a 64-bit host. It should be functionally
identical to the previous implementation so I expect it to work.
For x86, I've made sure to only fire the DMA bottom half if there is a DMA
channel that is runnable. The effect of this is that unless you're using sb16
or a floppy disk, the DMA bottom half never fires.
You probably should test this malc. My own benchmarks actually show slight
improvement by it's possible the change in timing could affect your demos.
Since v1, I've changed the code to use a BH instead of a timer. cris at least
seems to depend on faster than 10ms polling.

Bottom halves are supposed to not complete until the next iteration of the main
loop. This is very important to ensure that guests can not cause stack
overflows in the block driver code. Right now, if you attempt to schedule a
bottom half within a bottom half callback, you will enter an infinite loop.
This patch uses the same logic that we use for the IOHandler loop to make the
bottom half processing robust in list manipulation while in a callback.
This patch also introduces idle scheduling for bottom halves. qemu_bh_poll()
returns an indication of whether any bottom halves were successfully executed.
qemu_aio_wait() uses this to immediately return if a bottom half was executed
instead of waiting for a completion notification.
qemu_bh_schedule_idle() works around this by not reporting the callback has
run in the qemu_bh_poll loop. qemu_aio_wait() probably needs some refactoring
but that would require a larger code audit. idle scheduling seems like a good
compromise.

This patch changes the cache= option to accept none, writeback, or writethough
to control the host page cache behavior. By default, writethrough caching is
now used which internally is implemented by using O_DSYNC to open the disk
images. When using -snapshot, writeback is used by default since data integrity
it not at all an issue.
cache=none has the same behavior as cache=off previously. The later syntax is
still supported by now deprecated. I also cleaned up the O_DIRECT
implementation to avoid many of the #ifdefs.

This patch allows QEMUFile's read and write operations to return
negative error codes. This is necessary to detect things like closed
streams during live migration.
It also removes unused code for QEMUFileFD write path. Finally, it

is only being used for input. This was spotted by Uri Lublin.

Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt
the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This
results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during
bootup.
This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally
suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the
CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the
select/signal race condition.

This patch replaces the static memory savevm/loadvm handler with a "live" one.
This handler is used even if performing a non-live migration.
The key difference between this handler and the previous is that each page is
prefixed with the address of the page. The QEMUFile rate limiting code, in
combination with the live migration dirty tracking bits, is used to determine
which pages should be sent and how many should be sent.
The live save code "converges" when the number of dirty pages reaches a fixed
amount. Currently, this is 10 pages. This is something that should eventually
be derived from whatever the bandwidth limitation is.

The current savevm/loadvm protocol has some draw backs. It does not support
the ability to do progressive saving which means it cannot be used for live
checkpointing or migration. The sections sizes are 32-bit integers which
means that it will not function when using more than 4GB of memory for a guest.
It attempts to seek within the output file which means it cannot be streamed.
The current protocol also is pretty lax about how it supports forward
compatibility. If a saved section version is greater than what the restore
code support, the restore code generally treats the saved data as being in
whatever version it supports. This means that restoring a saved VM on an older
version of QEMU will likely result in silent guest failure.
This patch introduces a new version of the savevm protocol. It has the
following features:
* Support for progressive save of sections (for live checkpoint/migration)
* An asynchronous API for doing save
* Support for interleaving multiple progressive save sections
(for future support of memory hot-add/storage migration)
* Fully streaming format
* Strong section version checking

Right now, we sprinkle #if defined(QEMU_IMG) && defined(QEMU_NBD) all over the
code. It's ugly and causes us to have to build multiple object files for
linking against qemu and the tools.
This patch introduces a new file, qemu-tool.c which contains enough for
qemu-img, qemu-nbd, and QEMU to all share the same objects.
This also required getting qemu-nbd to be a bit more Windows friendly. I also
changed the Windows block-raw to use normal IO instead of overlapping IO since
we don't actually do AIO yet on Windows. I changed the various #if 0's to
#if WIN32_AIO to make it easier for someone to eventually fix AIO on Windows.
After this patch, there are no longer any #ifdef's related to qemu-img and
qemu-nbd.

This patch adds support for removing USB devices by host address.
Which is usefull for things like libvirtd because there is no easy way to
find guest USB address of the host device.
In other words you can now do:
usb_add host:3.5
...
usb_del host:3.5
Before the patch 'usb_del' did not support 'host:' notation.
----
Syntax for specifying auto connect filters has been improved.
Old syntax was
host:bus.dev
host:pid:vid
New syntax is
host:auto:bus.dev[:pid:vid]
In both the cases any attribute can be set to "*".
New syntax is more flexible and lets you do things like
host:3.*:5533:* /* grab any device on bus 3 with vendor id 5533 */
It's now possible to remove auto filters. For example:
usb_del host:auto:3.*:5533:*
Active filters are printed after all host devices in 'info usb' output.
Which now looks like this:
Device 1.1, speed 480 Mb/s
Hub: USB device 1d6b:0002, EHCI Host Controller
Device 1.4, speed 480 Mb/s
Class 00: USB device 1058:0704, External HDD
Auto filters:
Device 3.* ID *:*

This patch introduces signalfd() to work around the signal/select race in
checking for AIO completions. For platforms that don't support signalfd(), we
emulate it with threads.
There was a long discussion about this approach. I don't believe there are any
fundamental problems with this approach and I believe eliminating the use of
signals is a good thing.
I've tested Windows and Linux using Windows and Linux guests. I've also checked
for disk IO performance regressions.
