This adds a VirtIO based balloon driver. It uses madvise() to actually balloon
the memory when possible.
Until 2.6.27, KVM forced memory pinning so we must disable ballooning unless the
kernel actually supports it when using KVM. It's always safe when using TCG.

Virtio-blk is a paravirtual block device based on VirtIO. It can be used by
specifying the if=virtio parameter to the -drive parameter.
When using -enable-kvm, it can achieve very good performance compared to IDE or
SCSI.

This patch creates a new source file qemu-sockets.c with a bunch of
helper functions to create listening and connected sockets.
New features of this code are (a) support for searching for a free
port in a given range and (b) support for IPv6.
The following patches put that code into use.

KVM's live migration support included support for exec: URLs, allowing system
state to be written or received via an arbitrary popen()ed subprocess. This
provides a convenient way to pipe state through a compression algorithm or an
arbitrary network transport on its way to its destination, and a convenient way
to write state to disk; libvirt's qemu driver currently uses migration to exec:
targets for this latter purpose.
This version of the patch refactors now-common code from migrate-tcp.c into
migrate.c.

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.

This patch introduces a tcp protocol for live migration. It can be used as
follows:
qemu-system-x86_64 -hda ~/images/linux-test.img -monitor stdio
<vm runs for a while>
(qemu) migrate tcp:localhost:1025
On the same system:
qemu-system-x86_64 -hda ~/images/linux-test.img -incoming
tcp:localhost:1025
The monitor can be interacted with while waiting for an incoming live
migration.

This patch introduces a buffered QEMUFile wrapper. This allows QEMUFile's to be
rate limited. It also makes it easier to implement a QEMUFile that is
asynchronous since the current QEMUFile API requires that all reads and writes
be synchronous.
The only real non-obvious part of the API is the "frozen" concept. If the
backend returns EAGAIN, the QEMUFile is said to be "frozen". This means no
additional output will be sent to the backend until the file is unfrozen.
qemu_file_put_notify can be used to unfreeze a frozen file.
A synchronous interface is also provided to wait for an unfreeze event. This is
used during the final part of live migration when the VM is no longer running.

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 allows using a host's physical HCI as one of the HCIs attached
to the virtual machine. This brings various limitations because not
all commands/events are passed through by Linux kernel, some are
interpreted by the host's kernel for a speed gain.

This patch refactors the AIO layer to allow multiple AIO implementations. It's
only possible because of the recent signalfd() patch.
Right now, the AIO infrastructure is pretty specific to the block raw backend.
For other block devices to implement AIO, the qemu_aio_wait function must
support registration. This patch introduces a new function,
qemu_aio_set_fd_handler, which can be used to register a file descriptor to be
called back. qemu_aio_wait() now polls a set of file descriptors registered
with this function until one becomes readable or writable.
This patch should allow the implementation of alternative AIO backends (via a
thread pool or linux-aio) and AIO backends in non-traditional block devices
(like NBD).

OpenBSD doesn't use AIO so don't try to build compatfd when not using AIO.
Also make sure to call qemu_aio_init() from bdrv_init. Everything that uses
bdrv calls bdrv_init so it makes sense to init aio from there instead of
in every single tool.

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.
