2019-12-19i386: Resolve CPU models to v1 by defaultEduardo Habkost
When using `query-cpu-definitions` using `-machine none`, QEMU is resolving all CPU models to their latest versions. The actual CPU model version being used by another machine type (e.g. `pc-q35-4.0`) might be different. In theory, this was OK because the correct CPU model version is returned when using the correct `-machine` argument. Except that in practice, this breaks libvirt expectations: libvirt always use `-machine none` when checking if a CPU model is runnable, because runnability is not expected to be affected when the machine type is changed. For example, when running on a Haswell host without TSX, Haswell-v4 is runnable, but Haswell-v1 is not. On those hosts, `query-cpu-definitions` says Haswell is runnable if using `-machine none`, but Haswell is actually not runnable using any of the `pc-*` machine types (because they resolve Haswell to Haswell-v1). In other words, we're breaking the "runnability guarantee" we promised to not break for a few releases (see qemu-deprecated.texi). To address this issue, change the default CPU model version to v1 on all machine types, so we make `query-cpu-definitions` output when using `-machine none` match the results when using `pc-*`. This will change in the future (the plan is to always return the latest CPU model version if using `-machine none`), but only after giving libvirt the opportunity to adapt.

2019-12-18hw/i386: Remove the deprecated machines 0.12 up to 0.15Thomas Huth
These machines can't be used reliably for migration anymore, quoting https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-12/msg04516.html : " due to the introduction of the memory API, the firmware is not migrated correctly from source to destination. On QEMU <1.3 the 0xf0000-0xfffff area is basically a copy of the higher 0xffff0000-0xffffffff area, while on more recent versions it is initialized with zeroes and the firmware copies from 0xffff0000 to 0xf0000. When you migrate from old to new QEMU, after reboot there's nothing at 0xf0000 and bugs ensue. " The pc-0.x machines have been marked as deprecated since QEMU v4.0, so it is time to remove them now. And while we're at it, mark the remaining pc-1.x machine types as deprecated now, too, so that we finally only have "pc-i440fx" and "pc-q35" machine types left (apart from the non-versioned "isapc" and "microvm") once we remove them in a couple of releases.

2019-12-17Remove the core bluetooth codeThomas Huth
It's been deprecated since QEMU v3.1. We've explicitly asked in the deprecation message that people should speak up on qemu-devel in case they are still actively using the bluetooth part of QEMU, but nobody ever replied that they are really still using it. I've tried it on my own to use this bluetooth subsystem for one of my guests, but I was also not able to get it running anymore: When I was trying to pass-through a real bluetooth device, either the guest did not see the device at all, or the guest crashed. Even worse for the emulated device: When running qemu-system-x86_64 -bt device:keyboard QEMU crashes once you hit a key. So it seems like the bluetooth stack is not only neglected, it is completely bitrotten, as far as I can tell. The only attention that this code got during the past years were some CVEs that have been spotted there. So this code is a burden for the developers, without any real benefit anymore. Time to remove it. Note: hw/bt/Kconfig only gets cleared but not removed here yet. Otherwise there is a problem with the *-softmmu/config-devices.mak.d dependency files - they still contain a reference to this file which gets evaluated first on some build hosts, before the file gets properly recreated. To avoid breaking these builders, we still need the file around for some time. It will get removed in a couple of weeks instead.

2019-12-16hw/mips: Deprecate the r4k machinePhilippe Mathieu-Daudé
The r4k machine was introduced in 2005 (6af0bf9c7) and its last logical change was in 2005 (9542611a6). After that, one can count 164 maintenance commits (QEMU API changes) with the exception of 1 fix in 2015 (memory leak, commit 3ad9fd5a). This machine was introduced as a proof of concept to run a MIPS CPU. Two years later, the Malta machine was added (commit 5856de80), modeling a real platform. Note also this machine has no specification except 5 lines in the header of this file: * emulates a simple machine with ISA-like bus. * ISA IO space mapped to the 0x14000000 (PHYS) and * ISA memory at the 0x10000000 (PHYS, 16Mb in size). * All peripherial devices are attached to this "bus" with * the standard PC ISA addresses. The Linux kernel support for this machine has been dropped more than 10 years ago in commit 302922e5. It is time to deprecate this obsolete machine. Users are recommended to use the Malta board, and its hardware is well documented.

2019-07-05numa: deprecate 'mem' parameter of '-numa node' optionIgor Mammedov
The parameter allows to configure fake NUMA topology where guest VM simulates NUMA topology but not actually getting performance benefits from it. The same or better results could be achieved using 'memdev' parameter. Beside of unpredictable performance, '-numa node.mem' option has other issues when it's used with combination of -mem-path + + -mem-prealloc + memdev backends (pc-dimm), breaking binding of memdev backends since mem-path/mem-prealloc are global and affect the most of RAM allocations. It's possible to make memdevs and global -mem-path/mem-prealloc to play nicely together but that will just complicate already complicated code and add unobious ways it could break on 2 different memmory allocation pathes and their combinations. Instead of it, consolidate all guest RAM allocation over memdev which still allows to create fake NUMA configurations if desired and leaves one simplifyed code path to consider when it comes to guest RAM allocation. To achieve desired simplification deprecate 'mem' parameter as its ad-hoc partitioning of initial RAM MemoryRegion can't be translated to memdev based backend transparently to users and in compatible manner (migration wise). Later down the road that will allow to consolidate means of how guest RAM is allocated and would permit us to clean up quite a bit memory allocations and numa code, leaving only 'memdev' implementation in place.

The old -realtime mlock=on|off parameter does exactly the same as the new -overcommit mem-lock=on|off parameter. Additionally, "-realtime" does not activate any additional "realtime" capabilities as the name might indicate.

Commit 767abe7 ("chardev: forbid 'wait' option with client sockets") is a bit too strict. Current libvirt always set wait=false, and will thus fail to add client chardev. Make the code more permissive, allowing wait=false with client socket chardevs. Deprecate usage of 'wait' with client sockets. Fixes: 767abe7f49e8be14d29da5db3527817b5d696a52 Cc: Daniel P.

2019-03-12block/dirty-bitmap: add recording and busy propertiesJohn Snow
The current API allows us to report a single status, which we've defined as: Frozen: has a successor, treated as qmp_locked, may or may not be enabled. Locked: no successor, qmp_locked. may or may not be enabled. Disabled: Not frozen or locked, disabled. Active: Not frozen, locked, or disabled. The problem is that both "Frozen" and "Locked" mean nearly the same thing, and that both of them do not intuit whether they are recording guest writes or not. This patch deprecates that status field and introduces two orthogonal properties instead to replace it.

2019-03-11monitor: deprecate acl_show, acl_reset, acl_policy, acl_add, acl_removeDaniel P. Berrangé
The various ACL related commands are obsolete now that the QAuthZ framework for authorization is fully integrated throughout QEMU network services. These only ever worked with VNC and were never used by libvirt. Mark it as deprecated with no direct replacement to be provided. Authorization is now provided by using 'object_add' together with the 'tls-authz' or 'sasl-authz' parameters to the VNC server, and equivalent for other network services.

2019-03-11vnc: allow specifying a custom authorization object nameDaniel P. Berrange
The VNC server has historically had support for ACLs to check both the SASL username and the TLS x509 distinguished name. The VNC server was responsible for creating the initial ACL, and the client app was then responsible for populating it with rules using the HMP 'acl_add' command. This is not satisfactory for a variety of reasons. There is no way to populate the ACLs from the command line, users are forced to use the HMP. With multiple network services all supporting TLS and ACLs now, it is desirable to be able to define a single ACL that is referenced by all services. To address these limitations, two new options are added to the VNC server CLI. The 'tls-authz' option takes the ID of a QAuthZ object to use for checking TLS x509 distinguished names, and the 'sasl-authz' option takes the ID of another object to use for checking SASL usernames. In this example, we setup two authorization rules. The first allows any client with a certificate issued by the 'RedHat' organization in the 'London' locality. The second ACL allows clients with either the 'joe@REDHAT.COM' or 'fred@REDHAT.COM' kerberos usernames. Both checks must pass for the user to be allowed. $QEMU -object tls-creds-x509,id=tls0,dir=/home/berrange/qemutls,\ endpoint=server,verify-peer=yes \ -object authz-simple,id=authz0,policy=deny,\ rules.0.match=O=RedHat,,L=London,rules.0.policy=allow \ -object authz-simple,id=authz1,policy=deny,\ rules.0.match=fred@REDHAT.COM,rules.0.policy=allow \ rules.0.match=joe@REDHAT.COM,rules.0.policy=allow \ -vnc 0.0.0.0:1,tls-creds=tls0,tls-authz=authz0, sasl,sasl-authz=authz1 \ ...other QEMU args...
