2020-08-28virtiofsd: Remove "norace" from cmdline help and docsSergio Lopez

2020-08-28virtiofsd: Disable remote posix locks by defaultVivek Goyal
Right now we enable remote posix locks by default. That means when guest does a posix lock it sends request to server (virtiofsd). But currently we only support non-blocking posix lock and return -EOPNOTSUPP for blocking version. This means that existing applications which are doing blocking posix locks get -EOPNOTSUPP and fail. To avoid this, people have been running virtiosd with option "-o no_posix_lock". For new users it is still a surprise and trial and error takes them to this option. Given posix lock implementation is not complete in virtiofsd, disable it by default. This means that posix locks will work with-in applications in a guest but not across guests. Anyway we don't support sharing filesystem among different guests yet in virtiofs so this should not lead to any kind of surprise or regression and will make life little easier for virtiofs users.

2020-08-21libqemuutil, qapi, trace: convert to mesonPaolo Bonzini
This shows how to do some "computations" in meson.build using its array and dictionary data structures, and also a basic usage of the sourceset module for conditional compilation. Notice the new "if have_system" part of util/meson.build, which fixes a bug in the old build system was buggy: util/dbus.c was built even for non-softmmu builds, but the dependency on -lgio was lost when the linking was done through libqemuutil.a. Because all of its users required gio otherwise, the bug was hidden. Meson instead propagates libqemuutil's dependencies down to its users, and shows the problem.

2020-08-12spapr: Clarify error and documentation for broken KVM XICSGreg Kurz
When starting an L2 KVM guest with `ic-mode=dual,kernel-irqchip=on`, QEMU fails with: KVM is too old to support ic-mode=dual,kernel-irqchip=on This error message was introduced to detect older KVM versions that didn't allow destruction and re-creation of the XICS KVM device that we do at reboot. But it is actually the same issue that we get with nested guests : when running under pseries, KVM currently provides a genuine XICS device (not the XICS-on-XIVE device that we get under powernv) which doesn't support destruction/re-creation. This will eventually be fixed in KVM but in the meantime, update the error message and documentation to mention the nested case. While here, mention that in "No XIVE support in KVM" section that this can also happen with "guest OSes supporting XIVE" since we check this at init time before starting the guest.

2020-08-03schemas: Add vim modelineAndrea Bolognani
The various schemas included in QEMU use a JSON-based format which is, however, strictly speaking not valid JSON. As a consequence, when vim tries to apply syntax highlight rules for JSON (as guessed from the file name), the result is an unreadable mess which mostly consist of red markers pointing out supposed errors in, well, pretty much everything. Using Python syntax highlighting produces much better results, and in fact these files already start with specially-formatted comments that instruct Emacs to process them as if they were Python files. This commit adds the equivalent special comments for vim. Signed-off-by: Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20200729185024.121766-1-abologna@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel P.

These patches fix the issue by only allowing SD card image sizes power of 2, and not switching to SEND_DATA state when the address is invalid (out of range). This issue was found using QEMU fuzzing mode (using --enable-fuzzing, see docs/devel/fuzzing.txt) and reported by Alexander Bulekov.

2020-07-14qemu-img: Deprecate use of -b without -FEric Blake
Creating an image that requires format probing of the backing image is potentially unsafe (we've had several CVEs over the years based on probes leaking information to the guest on a subsequent boot, although these days tools like libvirt are aware of the issue enough to prevent the worst effects). For example, if our probing algorithm ever changes, or if other tools like libvirt determine a different probe result than we do, then subsequent use of that backing file under a different format will present corrupted data to the guest. Fortunately, the worst effects occur only when the backing image is originally raw, and we at least prevent commit into a probed raw backing file that would change its probed type. Still, it is worth starting a deprecation clock so that future qemu-img can refuse to create backing chains that would rely on probing, to encourage clients to avoid unsafe practices. Most warnings are intentionally emitted from bdrv_img_create() in the block layer, but qemu-img convert uses bdrv_create() which cannot emit its own warning without causing spurious warnings on other code paths. In the end, all command-line image creation or backing file rewriting now performs a check. Furthermore, if we probe a backing file as non-raw, then it is safe to explicitly record that result (rather than relying on future probes); only where we probe a raw image do we care about further warnings to the user when using such an image (for example, commits into a probed-raw backing file are prevented), to help them improve their tooling. But whether or not we make the probe results explicit, we still warn the user to remind them to upgrade their workflow to supply -F always. iotest 114 specifically wants to create an unsafe image for later amendment rather than defaulting to our new default of recording a probed format, so it needs an update. While touching it, expand it to cover all of the various warnings enabled by this patch. iotest 301 also shows a change to qcow messages.

2020-07-14qcow2: Deprecate use of qemu-img amend to change backing fileEric Blake
The use of 'qemu-img amend' to change qcow2 backing files is not tested very well. In particular, our implementation has a bug where if a new backing file is provided without a format, then the prior format is blindly reused, even if this results in data corruption, but this is not caught by iotests. There are also situations where amending other options needs access to the original backing file (for example, on a downgrade to a v2 image, knowing whether a v3 zero cluster must be allocated or may be left unallocated depends on knowing whether the backing file already reads as zero), but the command line does not have a nice way to tell us both the backing file to use for opening the image as well as the backing file to install after the operation is complete. Even if we do allow changing the backing file, it is redundant with the existing ability to change backing files via 'qemu-img rebase -u'. It is time to deprecate this support (leaving the existing behavior intact, even if it is buggy), and at a point in the future, require the use of only 'qemu-img rebase' for adjusting backing chain relations, saving 'qemu-img amend' for changes unrelated to the backing chain.

2020-07-14block: Error if backing file fails during creation without -uEric Blake
Back in commit 6e6e55f5 (Jul 2017, v2.10), we tweaked the code to warn if the backing file could not be opened but the user gave a size, unless the user also passes the -u option to bypass the open of the backing file. As one common reason for failure to open the backing file is when there is mismatch in the requested backing format in relation to what the backing file actually contains, we actually want to open the backing file and ensure that it has the right format in as many cases as possible. iotest 301 for qcow demonstrates how detecting explicit format mismatch is useful to prevent the creation of an image that would probe differently than the user requested. Now is the time to finally turn the warning an error, as promised. Note that the original warning was added prior to our documentation of an official deprecation policy (eb22aeca, also Jul 2017), and because the warning didn't mention the word "deprecated", we never actually remembered to document it as such. But the warning has been around long enough that I don't see prolonging it another two releases.

There is some additional information about the 3270 support in our Wiki at https://wiki.qemu.org/Features/3270 - so let's include this information into the main documentation now to have one single source of information (the Wiki page could later be removed). While at it, I also shortened the lines of the first example a little bit. Otherwise they showed up with a horizontal scrollbar in my Firefox browser.
