The various host OSes are irritatingly variable about the name
of the linker emulation we need to pass to ld's -m option to
build the i386 option ROMs. Instead of doing this via a
CONFIG ifdef, check in configure whether any of the emulation
names we know about will work and pass the right answer through
to the makefile. If we can't find one, we fall back to not trying
to build the option ROMs, in the same way we would for a non-x86
host platform.

This is in particular necessary to unbreak the build on OpenBSD,
since it wants a different answer to FreeBSD and we don't have
an existing CONFIG_ variable that distinguishes the two.

Considering that features are converted to global properties and
global properties are automatically applied to every new instance
of created CPU (at object_new() time), there is no point in
parsing cpu_model string every time a CPU created. So move
parsing outside CPU creation loop and do it only once.

Parsing also should be done before any CPU is created so that
features would affect the first CPU a well.

This patch does that for all PowerPC machine types.

It is based on previous work from Bharata:

VMs created on older versions on Xen will not have been provisioned with
pages to support creation of non-default ioreq servers. In this case
the ioreq server API is not supported and QEMU's only option is to fall
back to using the default ioreq server pages as it did prior to
commit 3996e85c ("Xen: Use the ioreq-server API when available").

This patch therefore changes the code in xen_common.h to stop considering
a failure of xc_hvm_create_ioreq_server() as a hard failure but simply
as an indication that the guest is too old to support the ioreq server
API. Instead a boolean is set to cause reversion to old behaviour such
that the default ioreq server is then used.

The virtio-console.c file handles both serial consoles
and interactive consoles, since they're backed by the
same device model.

Since serial devices are expected to be reliable and
need to notify the guest when the backend is opened
or closed, the virtio-console.c file wires up support
for chardev events. This affects both serial consoles
and interactive consoles, using a network connection
based chardev backend such as 'socket', but not when
using a PTY based backend or plain 'file' backends.

When the host side is not connected the handle_output()
method in virtio-serial-bus.c will drop any data sent
by the guest, before it even reaches the virtio-console.c
code. This means that if the chardev has a logfile
configured, the data will never get logged.

Consider for example, configuring a x86_64 guest with a
plain UART serial port

  -chardev socket,id=charserial1,host=127.0.0.1,port=9001,server,nowait,logfile=console1.log,logappend=on
  -device isa-serial,chardev=charserial1,id=serial1

vs a s390 guest which has to use the virtio-console port

  -chardev socket,id=charconsole1,host=127.0.0.1,port=9000,server,nowait,logfile=console2.log,logappend=on
  -device virtconsole,chardev=charconsole1,id=console1

The isa-serial one gets data written to the log regardless
of whether a client is connected, while the virtioconsole
one only gets data written to the log when a client is
connected.

There is no need for virtio-serial-bus.c to aggressively
drop the data for console devices, as the chardev code is
prefectly capable of discarding the data itself.

So this patch changes virtconsole devices so that they
are always marked as having the host side open. This
ensures that the guest OS will always send any data it
has (Linux virtio-console hvc driver actually ignores
the host open state and sends data regardless, but we
should not rely on that), and also prevents the
virtio-serial-bus code prematurely discarding data.

The behaviour of virtserialport devices is *not* changed,
only virtconsole, because for the former, it is important
that the guest OSknow exactly when the host side is opened
/ closed so it can do any protocol re-negotiation that may
be required.

The set_mem_table command currently does not seek a reply. Hence, there is
no easy way for a remote application to notify to QEMU when it finished
setting up memory, or if there were errors doing so.

As an example:
(1) Qemu sends a SET_MEM_TABLE to the backend (eg, a vhost-user net
application). SET_MEM_TABLE does not require a reply according to the spec.
(2) Qemu commits the memory to the guest.
(3) Guest issues an I/O operation over a new memory region which was configured on (1).
(4) The application has not yet remapped the memory, but it sees the I/O request.
(5) The application cannot satisfy the request because it does not know about those GPAs.

While a guaranteed fix would require a protocol extension (committed separately),
a best-effort workaround for existing applications is to send a GET_FEATURES
message before completing the vhost_user_set_mem_table() call.
Since GET_FEATURES requires a reply, an application that processes vhost-user
messages synchronously would probably have completed the SET_MEM_TABLE before replying.

This introduces the VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_REPLY_ACK.

If negotiated, client applications should send a u64 payload in
response to any message that contains the "need_reply" bit set
on the message flags. Setting the payload to "zero" indicates the
command finished successfully. Likewise, setting it to "non-zero"
indicates an error.

Here are some more last minute PAPR and ppc related fixes for
qemu-2.7.  One patch makes compressed memory dumps work with guest
kernels using page sizes up to 64KiB.  This is important since most
current pseries guests use a 64KiB default page size.  The remainder

CHK-level checks have been removed from checkpatch or bumped to
errors, so there is no effect anymore for --strict/--subjective.
Furthermore, even most WARNs have been bumped to errors, with
WARN only reserved to things that patchew probably ought not
to complain about (and that maintainers probably will notice
anyway during review if they are extreme).

Default to exiting with success even if there are WARN-level
failures, and cause --strict to fail for warnings.  Maintainers
that want to have a strict 80-character limit for their subsystem
can add it to a commit hook for example.

The --subjective synonym is removed.

This only leaves a warning-level message for the extra-long lines
soft limit.  Everything else is bumped up.

In the future warnings can be added for checks that can have false
positives.

Line lengths above 80 characters do exist.  They are rare, but
they happen from time to time.  An ignored rule is worse than an
exception to the rule, so do the latter.

Some on the list expressed their preference for a soft limit that
is slightly lower than 80 characters, to account for extra characters
in unified diffs (including three-way diffs) and for email quoting.
However, there was no consensus on this so keep the 80-character
soft limit and add a hard limit at 90.

These should apply to all files, not just C/C++.  Tweak the regular
expression to check for whole words, to avoid false positives on Perl
variables starting with "Id".

There is a regression with the "-cpu" parameter introduced by
the spapr CPU hotplug code: We used to allow to specify a
"CPU family" name with the "-cpu" parameter when running on KVM so
that the user does not need to know the gory details of the exact
CPU version of the host CPU. For example, it was possible to
use "-cpu POWER8" on a POWER8E host CPU. This behavior does not
work anymore with the new hot-pluggable spapr-cpu-core types.
Since libvirt already heavily depends on the old behavior, this
is quite a severe regression in the QEMU parameter interface.
Let's fix it by supporting a CPU family type for the spapr-cpu-core
on KVM, too.

The code for registering the sPAPR CPU host core type has been
added inbetween the generic CPU host core type and the generic
CPU family type. That way the instance_init and the class_init
information got lost when registering the generic CPU family
type. Fix it by moving the generic family registration before
the spapr cpu core registration code.
