Merge tag 'patchew/20200219160953.13771-1-imammedo@redhat.com' of https://github.com/patchew-project/qemu into HEAD
This series removes ad hoc RAM allocation API (memory_region_allocate_system_memory)
and consolidates it around hostmem backend. It allows to
* resolve conflicts between global -mem-prealloc and hostmem's "policy" option,
fixing premature allocation before binding policy is applied
* simplify complicated memory allocation routines which had to deal with 2 ways
to allocate RAM.
* reuse hostmem backends of a choice for main RAM without adding extra CLI
options to duplicate hostmem features. A recent case was -mem-shared, to
enable vhost-user on targets that don't support hostmem backends [1] (ex: s390)
* move RAM allocation from individual boards into generic machine code and
provide them with prepared MemoryRegion.
* clean up deprecated NUMA features which were tied to the old API (see patches)
- "numa: remove deprecated -mem-path fallback to anonymous RAM"
- (POSTPONED, waiting on libvirt side) "forbid '-numa node,mem' for 5.0 and newer machine types"
- (POSTPONED) "numa: remove deprecated implicit RAM distribution between nodes"
Introduce a new machine.memory-backend property and wrapper code that aliases
global -mem-path and -mem-alloc into automatically created hostmem backend
properties (provided memory-backend was not set explicitly given by user).
A bulk of trivial patches then follow to incrementally convert individual
boards to using machine.memory-backend provided MemoryRegion.
Board conversion typically involves:
* providing MachineClass::default_ram_size and MachineClass::default_ram_id
so generic code could create default backend if user didn't explicitly provide
memory-backend or -m options
* dropping memory_region_allocate_system_memory() call
* using convenience MachineState::ram MemoryRegion, which points to MemoryRegion
allocated by ram-memdev
On top of that for some boards:
* missing ram_size checks are added (typically it were boards with fixed ram size)
* ram_size fixups are replaced by checks and hard errors, forcing user to
provide correct "-m" values instead of ignoring it and continuing running.
After all boards are converted, the old API is removed and memory allocation
routines are cleaned up.
