2021-01-19target/arm: Add cpu properties to control pauthRichard Henderson
The crypto overhead of emulating pauth can be significant for some workloads. Add two boolean properties that allows the feature to be turned off, on with the architected algorithm, or on with an implementation defined algorithm. We need two intermediate booleans to control the state while parsing properties lest we clobber ID_AA64ISAR1 into an invalid intermediate state.

2021-01-12hw/misc: Add a PWM module for NPCM7XXHao Wu
The PWM module is part of NPCM7XX module. Each NPCM7XX module has two identical PWM modules. Each module contains 4 PWM entries. Each PWM has two outputs: frequency and duty_cycle. Both are computed using inputs from software side. This module does not model detail pulse signals since it is expensive. It also does not model interrupts and watchdogs that are dependant on the detail models. The interfaces for these are left in the module so that anyone in need for these functionalities can implement on their own. The user can read the duty cycle and frequency using qom-get command.

This property has been deprecated since QEMU 5.0 by commit 22062e54bb68. We only kept a legacy hack that internally converts "compat" into the official "max-cpu-compat" property of the pseries machine type. According to our deprecation policy, we could have removed it for QEMU 5.2 already. Do it now ; since ppc_cpu_parse_featurestr() now just calls the generic parent_parse_features handler, drop it as well.

Since 'block-export-add' is new to 5.2, we can still tweak the interface; there, allowing 'bitmaps':['str'] is nicer than 'bitmap':'str'. This wires up the qapi and qemu-nbd changes to permit passing multiple bitmaps as distinct metadata contexts that the NBD client may request, but the actual support for more than one will require a further patch to the server. Note that there are no changes made to the existing deprecated 'nbd-server-add' command; this required splitting the QAPI type BlockExportOptionsNbd, which fortunately does not affect QMP introspection.

Each individual pin is modeled as a pair of unnamed GPIOs -- one for emitting the actual pin state, and one for driving the pin externally. Like the nRF51 GPIO controller, a gpio level may be negative, which means the pin is not driven, or floating.

2020-10-15block: deprecate the sheepdog block driverDaniel P. Berrangé
This thread from a little over a year ago: http://lists.wpkg.org/pipermail/sheepdog/2019-March/thread.html states that sheepdog is no longer actively developed. The only mentioned users are some companies who are said to have it for legacy reasons with plans to replace it by Ceph. There is talk about cutting out existing features to turn it into a simple demo of how to write a distributed block service. There is no evidence of anyone working on that idea: https://github.com/sheepdog/sheepdog/commits/master No real commits to git since Jan 2018, and before then just some minor technical debt cleanup. There is essentially no activity on the mailing list aside from patches to QEMU that get CC'd due to our MAINTAINERS entry. Fedora packages for sheepdog failed to build from upstream source because of the more strict linker that no longer merges duplicate global symbols. Fedora patches it to add the missing "extern" annotations and presumably other distros do to, but upstream source remains broken. There is only basic compile testing, no functional testing of the driver. Since there are no build pre-requisites the sheepdog driver is currently enabled unconditionally. This would result in configure issuing a deprecation warning by default for all users. Thus the configure default is changed to disable it, requiring users to pass --enable-sheepdog to build the driver.

2020-10-13docs/system/deprecated: Mark the 'moxie' CPU as deprecatedThomas Huth
It is currently unclear whether anybody is still using the 'moxie' CPU, and there are no images for testing available this CPU, so the code has likely bit-rotten in the course of time. When I asked the maintainer for information, I did not get a reply within four weeks yet (see https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2020-08/msg07201.html). The last Signed-off-by line from Anthony in our repo is from 2013, so it seems like this code is rather unmaintained. Time to put it onto the deprecation list to see whether somebody is still interested in this code or whether we could remove it in a couple of releases.
