It's hard to track all mac addresses and their configurations (e.g
vlan or ipv6) in qemu. Without this information, it's impossible to
build proper garp packet after migration. The only possible solution
to this is let guest (who knows all configurations) to do this.
So, this patch introduces a new readonly config status bit of virtio-net,
VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE which is used to notify guest to announce
presence of its link through config update interrupt.When guest has
done the announcement, it should ack the notification through
VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_ANNOUNCE_ACK cmd. This feature is negotiated by a new
feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_ANNOUNCE (which has already been supported by
Linux guest).
During load, a counter of announcing rounds is set so that after the vm is
running it can trigger rounds of config interrupts to notify the guest to build
and send the correct garps.

Each hotplug-able memory slot is a PCDIMMDevice.
A hot-add operation for a memory device:
- creates a new PCDIMMDevice and makes hotplug controller to map it into
guest address space
Hotplug operations are done through normal device_add commands.
For migration case, all hotplugged memory devices on source should be
specified on target's command line using '-device' option with
properties set to the same values as on source.
To simplify review, patch introduces only PCDIMMDevice QOM skeleton that
will be extended by following patches to implement actual memory hotplug
and related functions.

still trys to handle pending virtio-scsi events, then object check failure
inside virtio_scsi_handle_event() for vhost-scsi can be triggered.
The issue can be reproduced by 'rmmod virtio-scsi', 'system sleep' or reboot

find_first_bit has started to be used heavily in TCG code. The current
implementation based on find_next_bit is not optimal and can't be
optimized be the compiler if the bit array has a fixed size, which is
the case most of the time.
This new implementation does not use find_next_bit and is yet small
enough to be inlined.

MIPS/Linux is unusual in having 128 signals rather than just 64 like
most other architectures. This means its sigmask is 16 bytes instead of
8, so allow arches to override the sigmask->len value passed to the
KVM_SET_SIGNAL_MASK ioctl in kvm_set_signal_mask() by calling
kvm_set_sigmask_len() from kvm_arch_init(). Otherwise default to 8
bytes.

Hotplug of multiple disks fails due to MSI vector quota check.
Number of MSI vectors default to 8 allowing only 4 devices.
This happens on RHEL6.5 guest. RHEL7 and SLES11 guests fallback
to INTX.
One way to workaround the issue is to increase total MSIs,
so that MSI quota check allows us to hotplug multiple disks.
This sets the quota to the maximum number of interupts XICS has
which is 1024 now (XICS_IRQS). This moves XICS_IRQS from spapr.c
to xics.h for wider visibility.

At the moment sPAPRPHBState contains a @tcet pointer to the only

Since the TCE object is already a child of SPAPR PHB object, there is

Currently the default DMA window is represented by a single MemoryRegion.
However there can be more than just one window so we need
a "root" memory region to be separated from the actual DMA window(s).
This introduces a "root" IOMMU memory region and adds a subregion for
the default DMA 32bit window. Following patches will add other
subregion(s).
This initializes a default DMA window subregion size to the guest RAM
size as this window can be switched into "bypass" mode which implements
direct DMA mapping.

The macio IDE controller has some pretty nasty magic in its implementation to
allow for unaligned sector accesses. We used to handle these accesses
synchronously inside the IO callback handler.
However, the block infrastructure changed below our feet and now it's impossible
to call a synchronous block read/write from the aio callback handler of a
previous block access.
Work around that limitation by making the unaligned handling bits also go
through our asynchronous handler.
This fixes booting Mac OS X for me.

The PAPR+ specification defines a ibm,client-architecture-support (CAS)
RTAS call which purpose is to provide a negotiation mechanism for
the guest and the hypervisor to work out the best compatibility parameters.
During the negotiation process, the guest provides an array of various
options and capabilities which it supports, the hypervisor adjusts
the device tree and (optionally) reboots the guest.
At the moment the Linux guest calls CAS method at early boot so SLOF
gets called. SLOF allocates a memory buffer for the device tree changes
and calls a custom KVMPPC_H_CAS hypercall. QEMU parses the options,
composes a diff for the device tree, copies it to the buffer provided
by SLOF and returns to SLOF. SLOF updates the device tree and returns
control to the guest kernel. Only then the Linux guest parses the device
tree so it is possible to avoid unnecessary reboot in most cases.
The device tree diff is a header with an update format version
(defined as 1 in this patch) followed by a device tree with the properties
which require update.
If QEMU detects that it has to reboot the guest, it silently does so
as the guest expects reboot to happen because this is usual pHyp firmware
behavior.
This defines custom KVMPPC_H_CAS hypercall. The current SLOF already
has support for it.
This implements stub which returns very basic tree (root node,
no properties) to the guest.
As the return buffer does not contain any change, no change in behavior is
expected.
