5223070c47 qapi script: do not allow string discriminator
Since enum based discriminators provide better type-safety and

bceae7697f qapi script: support enum type as discriminator in union
By default, any union will automatically generate a enum type as
"[UnionName]Kind" in C code, and it is duplicated when the discriminator
is specified as a pre-defined enum type in schema. After this patch,
the pre-defined enum type will be really used as the switch case
condition in generated C code, if discriminator is an enum field.

41310c6878 rdma: rename 'x-rdma' => 'rdma'
As far as we can tell, all known bugs have been fixed:

1. Parallel migrations are working
2. IPv6 migration is working
3. virt-test is working

I'm not comfortable sending the revised libvirt patch
until this is accepted or review suggestions are addressed,
(including pin-all support. It does not make sense to
remove experimental for one thing and not the other. That's
too many trips through the libvirt community).

95c6bff356 quorum: Add quorum mechanism.
This patchset enables the core of the quorum mechanism.
The num_children reads are compared to get the majority version and if this
version exists more than threshold times the guest won't see the error at all.

If a block is corrupted or if an error occurs during an IO or if the quorum
cannot be established QMP events are used to report to the management.

Use gnutls's SHA-256 to compare versions.

--enable-quorum must be used to enable the feature.

6f1ce94a29 docs/memory.txt: Clarify and expand priority/overlap documentation
The documentation of how overlapping memory regions behave and how
the priority system works was rather brief, and confusion about
priorities seems to be quite common for developers trying to understand
how the memory region system works, so expand and clarify it.
This includes a worked example with overlaps, documentation of the
behaviour when an overlapped container has "holes", and mention
that it's valid for a region to have both MMIO callbacks and
subregions (and how this interacts with priorities when it does).

8002ccd6e4 docs/memory: Explictly state that MemoryRegion priority is signed
When memory regions overlap, priority can be used to specify
which of them takes priority. By making the priority values signed
rather than unsigned, we make it more convenient to implement
a situation where one "background" region should appear only
where no other region exists: rather than having to explicitly
specify a high priority for all the other regions, we can let them take
the default (zero) priority and specify a negative priority for the
background region.

8593898109 Use qemu-project.org domain name
qemu.org is held by a third-party and no core community contributor has
access to the DNS configuration.  This leaves the website exposed to
outages due to DNS issues or IP address changes.  For example, if the
web server IP address needs to change we cannot guarantee qemu.org will
point to it!

The newer qemu-project.org domain name is owned by Anthony Liguori
<anthony@codemonkey.ws>.  You can confirm this by querying the whois
information.  Also note that the #qemu IRC channel topic already
references qemu-project.org.

Short of having a dedicated legal entity to hold the domain name on
behalf of the community, qemu-project.org seems like the safest bet.

Let's replace references to qemu.org with qemu-project.org.

Note that git-submodule(1) does not detect URL changes.  The following
commands clear out and re-initialize all submodules to ensure you are
using the latest URLs:

  $ git submodule deinit . # you'll be warned if you have local changes
  $ rm -rf .git/modules    # also clear cached .git/ directories
  $ git submodule update --init

69dd62dfd6 qapi: Anonymous unions
The discriminator for anonymous unions is the data type. This allows to
have a union type that allows both of these:

    { 'file': 'my_existing_block_device_id' }
    { 'file': { 'filename': '/tmp/mydisk.qcow2', 'read-only': true } }

Unions like this are specified in the schema with an empty dict as
discriminator. For this example you could take:

    { 'union': 'BlockRef',
      'discriminator': {},
      'data': { 'definition': 'BlockOptions',
                'reference': 'str' } }

50f2bdc75c qapi: Flat unions with arbitrary discriminator
Instead of the rather verbose syntax that distinguishes base and
subclass fields...

  { "type": "file",
    "read-only": true,
    "data": {
        "filename": "test"
    } }

...we can now have both in the same namespace, allowing a more direct
mapping of the command line, and moving fields between the common base
and subclasses without breaking the API:

  { "driver": "file",
    "read-only": true,
    "filename": "test" }

a5f56b906e rdma: update documentation to reflect new unpin support
As requested, the protocol now includes memory unpinning support.
This has been implemented in a non-optimized manner, in such a way
that one could devise an LRU or other workload-specific information
on top of the basic mechanism to influence the way unpinning happens
during runtime.

The feature is not yet user-facing, and is thus can only be enabled
at compile-time.

Rate limiting is now simply a byte counter; client call

This makes the remaining functionality of s->file redundant;

df9ffb726f vga: fix bochs alignment issue
The bochs dispi interface traditionally uses port 0x1ce as 16bit index
register and port 0x1cf as 16bit data register.  The later is unaligned,
and probably for that reason the the data register was moved to 0x1d0
for non-x86 archs.

This patch makes the data register available at 0x1d0 on x86 too.  The
old x86 location is kept for compatibility reasons, so both 0x1cf and
0x1d0 can be used as data register on x86.

Therefore the dirty bit must be an incompatible feature bit.  We don't

- instead of examining, assert that we never overwrite errors with
  error_set()
- allow visitors to set a NULL struct pointer successfully, so traversal
  of incomplete objects can continue
- check for a NULL "obj" before accessing "(*obj)->has_XXX" (this is not a

0f58f68b58 usb: add usb attached scsi emulation
$subject says all.  First cut.

It's a pure UAS (usb attached scsi) emulation, without BOT (bulk-only
transport) compatibility.  If your guest can't handle it use usb-storage
instead.

The emulation works like any other scsi hba emulation (eps, lsi, virtio,
megasas, ...).  It provides just the HBA where you can attach scsi
devices as you like using '-device'.  A single scsi target with up to
256 luns is supported.

For now only usb 2.0 transport is supported.  This will change in the
future though as I plan to use this as playground when codeing up &
testing usb 3.0 transport and streams support in the qemu usb core and
the xhci emulation.

No migration support yet.  I'm planning to add usb 3.0 support first as
this probably requires saving additional state.

Special thanks go to Paolo for bringing the qemu scsi emulation into
shape, so this can be added nicely without having to touch a single line
of scsi code.

c73e3771ea spapr: Add "memop" hypercall
This adds a qemu-specific hypervisor call to the pseries machine
which allows to do what amounts to memmove, memcpy and xor over
regions of physical memory such as the framebuffer.

This is the simplest way to get usable framebuffer speed from
SLOF since the framebuffer isn't mapped in the VRMA and so would
otherwise require an hcall per 8 bytes access.

The performance is still not great but usable, and can be improved
with a more complex implementation of the hcall itself if needed.

This also adds some documentation for the qemu-specific hypercalls
that we add to PAPR along with a new qemu,hypertas-functions property
that mirrors ibm,hypertas-functions and provides some discoverability
for the new calls.

Note: I chose note to advertise H_RTAS to the guest via that mechanism.
This is done on purpose, the guest uses the normal RTAS interfaces
provided by qemu (including SLOF) which internally calls H_RTAS.

We might in the future implement part (or even all) of RTAS inside the
guest like IBM's firmware does and replace H_RTAS with some finer grained
set of private hypercalls.

4fabffc112 Specification for qcow2 version 3
This updates the qcow2 specification to cover version 3. It contains the
following changes:

- Added compatible/incompatible/auto-clear feature bits plus an optional
  feature name table to allow useful error messages even if an older
  version doesn't know some feature at all.

- Configurable refcount width. If you don't want to use internal
  snapshots, make refcounts one bit and save cache space and I/O.

- Zero cluster flags. This allows discard even with a backing file that
  doesn't contain zeros. It is also useful for copy-on-read/image
  streaming, as you'll want to keep sparseness without accessing the
  remote image for an unallocated cluster all the time.

- Fixed internal snapshot metadata to use 64 bit VM state size. You
  can't save a snapshot of a VM with >= 4 GB RAM today.

- Extended internal snapshot metadata to contain the disk size, so that
  resizing images that have snapshots can be allowed in the future.

9290f364c1 acpi_piix4: Re-define PCI hotplug eject register read
The PCI hotplug eject register has always returned 0, so let's redefine
it as a hotplug feature register.  The existing model of using separate
up & down read-only registers and an eject via write to this register
becomes the base implementation.  As we make use of new interfaces we'll
set bits here to allow the BIOS and AML implementation to optimize for
the platform implementation.

ba737541ed acpi_piix4: Disallow write to up/down PCI hotplug registers
The write side of these registers is never used and actually can't be
used as defined because any read/modify/write sequence from the guest
potentially races with qemu.  Drop the write support and define these

3a86a0fa76 qapi: untangle next_list
Right now, the semantics of next_list are complicated.  The caller must:

* call start_list

* call next_list for each element *including the first*

* on the first call to next_list, the second argument should point to
NULL and the result is the head of the list.  On subsequent calls,
the second argument should point to the last node (last result of
next_list) and next_list itself tacks the element at the tail of the
list.

This works for both input and output visitor, but having the visitor
write memory when it is only reading the list is ugly.  Plus, relying
on *list to detect the first call is tricky and undocumented.

We can initialize so->entry in next_list instead of start_list, leaving
it NULL in start_list.  This way next_list sees clearly whether it is
on the first call---as a bonus, it discriminates the cases based on
internal state of the visitor rather than external state.  We can
also pull the assignment of the list head from generated code up to
next_list.

Changes in v8:

- rename save-devices-state to xen-save-devices-state.

Changes in v7:

- rename save_devices to save-devices-state.

Changes in v6:

- remove the is_ram parameter from register_savevm_live and sets is_ram
if the device is a live_savevm device;

- introduce save_devices as a QAPI command, write a better description
for it;

- fix CODING_STYLE;

- introduce a new doc to explain the save format used by save_devices.

Adds a 'TRACE_${NAME}_ENABLED' preprocessor define for each tracing event in
"trace.h".

This lets the user conditionally compile code with a relatively high execution
cost that is only necessary when producing the tracing information for an event
that is enabled.

Note that events using this define will probably have the "disable" property by
default, in order to avoid such costs on regular builds.
