2020-01-30docs/devel/tracing.txt: Recommend only trace_event_get_state_backends()Peter Maydell
Instead of recommending checking the TRACE_FOO_ENABLED macro to skip expensive computations needed only for tracing, recommend only using trace_event_get_state_backends(). This works for both compile-time and run-time disabling of events, and has no extra performance impact if the event is compile-time disabled.

By default VM build test use qemu-img from system's PATH to create the image disk. Due the lack of qemu-img on the system or the desire to simply use a version built with QEMU, it would be nice to allow one to set its path.

2019-09-24qapi: Remove null from schema languageMarkus Armbruster
We represent the parse tree as OrderedDict. We fetch optional dict members with .get(). So far, so good. We represent null literals as None. .get() returns None both for "absent" and for "present, value is the null literal". Uh-oh. Test features-if-invalid exposes this bug: "'if': null" is misinterpreted as absent "if". We added null to the schema language to "allow [...] an explicit default value" (commit e53188ada5 "qapi: Allow true, false and null in schema json", v2.4.0). Hasn't happened; null is still unused except as generic invalid value in tests/. To fix, we'd have to replace .get() by something more careful, or represent null differently. Feasible, but we got more and bigger fish to fry right now. Remove the null literal from the schema language. Replace null in tests by another invalid value. Test features-if-invalid now behaves as it should.

2019-09-24docs/devel/qapi-code-gen: Improve QAPI schema language docMarkus Armbruster
We document the language by giving patterns of valid JSON objects. The patterns contain placeholders we don't define anywhere; their names have to speak for themselves. I guess they do, but I'd prefer a bit more rigor. Provide a grammar instead, and rework the text accordingly. Documentation for QAPI schema conditionals (commit 967c885108, 6cc32b0e14, 87adbbffd4..3e270dcacc) and feature flags (commit 6a8c0b5102) was bolted on. The sections documenting types, commands and events don't mention them. Section "Features" and "Configuring the schema" then provide additional syntax for types, commands and events. I hate that. Fix the sections documenting types, commands and events to provide accurate syntax, and point to "Features" and "Configuring the schema" for details. We talk about "(top-level) expressions other than include and pragma". Adopt more convenient terminology: a (top-level) expression is either a directive (include or pragma) or a definition (anything else). Avoid the terms "dictionary" and "key". Stick to JSON terminology "object" and "member name" instead. While there, make spacing more consistent.

The specification claims a command's return type "must be the string name of a complex or built-in type, a one-element array containing the name of a complex or built-in type" unless the command is in pragma 'returns-whitelist'.

2019-09-24qapi: Drop support for boxed alternate argumentsMarkus Armbruster
Commands and events can define their argument type inline (default) or by referring to another type ('boxed': true, since commit c818408e44 "qapi: Implement boxed types for commands/events", v2.7.0). The unboxed inline definition is an (anonymous) struct type. The boxed type may be a struct, union, or alternate type. The latter is problematic: docs/interop/qemu-spec.txt requires the value of the 'data' key to be a json-object, but any non-degenerate alternate type has at least one branch that isn't. Fortunately, we haven't made use of alternates in this context outside tests/. Drop support for them. QAPISchemaAlternateType.is_empty() is now unused. Drop it, too.

2019-06-12qapi: Add feature flags to struct typesKevin Wolf
Sometimes, the behaviour of QEMU changes without a change in the QMP syntax (usually by allowing values or operations that previously resulted in an error). QMP clients may still need to know whether they can rely on the changed behavior. Let's add feature flags to the QAPI schema language, so that we can make such changes visible with schema introspection. An example for a schema definition using feature flags looks like this: { 'struct': 'TestType', 'data': { 'number': 'int' }, 'features': [ 'allow-negative-numbers' ] } Introspection information then looks like this: { "name": "TestType", "meta-type": "object", "members": [ { "name": "number", "type": "int" } ], "features": [ "allow-negative-numbers" ] } This patch implements feature flags only for struct types. We'll implement them more widely as needed.

All callers of bdrv_set_aio_context() are eliminated now, they have moved to bdrv_try_set_aio_context() and related safe functions. Remove bdrv_set_aio_context(). With this, we can now know that the .set_aio_ctx callback must be present in bdrv_set_aio_context_ignore() because bdrv_can_set_aio_context() would have returned false previously, so instead of checking the condition, we can assert it.

2019-05-13Makefile: Fix inclusion of the config-devices.mak.d Kconfig dependenciesThomas Huth
The Makefile tries to include device Kconfig dependencies via -include $(SUBDIR_DEVICES_MAK_DEP) and thus expects files that match *-softmmu/config-devices.mak.d ... however, the minikconf script currently generates files a la "*-softmmu-config.devices.mak.d" instead, so the dependency files simply got ignored so far. For example, after a "touch hw/arm/Kconfig", the arm-softmmu/config-devices.mak file is currently not re-generated. Fix it by putting the dependency files in the *-softmmu folders now.

2019-05-10docs: add Secure Coding Practices to developer docsStefan Hajnoczi
At KVM Forum 2018 I gave a presentation on security in QEMU: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAdRf_hwxU8 (video) https://vmsplice.net/~stefan/stefanha-kvm-forum-2018.pdf (slides) This patch adds a guide to secure coding practices. This document covers things that developers should know about security in QEMU. It is just a starting point that we can expand on later. I hope it will be useful as a resource for new contributors and will save code reviewers from explaining the same concepts many times.

2019-05-02tests/acceptance: look for target architecture in test tags firstCleber Rosa
A test can, optionally, be tagged for one or many architectures. If a test has been tagged for a single architecture, there's a high chance that the test won't run on other architectures. This changes the default order of choosing a default target architecture to use based on the 'arch' tag value first. The precedence order is for choosing a QEMU binary to use for a test is now: * qemu_bin parameter * arch parameter * arch tag value (for example, x86_64 if ":avocado: tags=arch:x86_64 is used) This means that if one runs: $ avocado run -p qemu_bin=/usr/bin/qemu-system-x86_64 test.py No arch parameter or tag will influence the selection of the QEMU target binary. If one runs: $ avocado run -p arch=ppc64 test.py The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary such as "ppc64-softmmu/qemu-system-ppc64". And finally, if one runs a test that is tagged (in its docstring) with "arch:aarch64": $ avocado run aarch64.py The target binary selection mechanism will attempt to find a binary such as "aarch64-softmmu/qemu-system-aarch64". At this time, no provision is made to cancel the execution of tests if the arch parameter given (manually) does not match the test "arch" tag, but it may be a useful default behavior to be added in the future.

2019-05-02tests/acceptance: introduce arch parameter and attributeCleber Rosa
It's useful to define the architecture that should be used in situations such as: * the intended target of the QEMU binary to be used on tests * the architecture of code to be run within the QEMU binary, such as a kernel image or a full blown guest OS image This commit introduces both a test parameter and a test instance attribute, that will contain such a value. Now, when the "arch" test parameter is given, it will influence the selection of the default QEMU binary, if one is not given explicitly by means of the "qemu_img" parameter.
