It will allow mgmt to query present and hotpluggable CPU objects,
it is required from a target platform that wishes to support command
to implement and set MachineClass.query_hotpluggable_cpus callback,
which will return a list of possible CPU objects with options that
would be needed for hotplugging possible CPU objects.
There are:
'type': 'str' - QOM CPU object type for usage with device_add
'vcpus-count': 'int' - number of logical VCPU threads per
CPU object (mgmt needs to know)
and a set of optional fields that are to used for hotplugging a CPU
objects and would allows mgmt tools to know what/where it could be
hotplugged;
[node],[socket],[core],[thread]
For present CPUs there is a 'qom-path' field which would allow mgmt to
inspect whatever object/abstraction the target platform considers
as CPU object.

Introduce a "xen-load-devices-state" QAPI command that can be used to
load the state of all devices, but not the RAM or the block devices of
the VM.
We only have hmp commands savevm/loadvm, and qmp commands
xen-save-devices-state.
We use this new command for COLO:
1. suspend both primary vm and secondary vm
2. sync the state
3. resume both primary vm and secondary vm
In such case, we need to update all devices' state in any time.

This patch add "query-gic-capabilities" but does not implement it. The
command is ARM-only. The command will return a list of GICCapability
structs that describes all GIC versions that current QEMU and system
support.
Libvirt is possibly the first consumer of this new command.
Before this patch, a libvirt user can successfully configure all kinds
of GIC devices for ARM guests, no matter whether current QEMU/kernel
supports them. If the specified GIC version/type is not supported, the
user will get an ambiguous "QEMU boot failure" error when trying to start
the VM. This is not user-friendly.
With this patch, libvirt should be able to query which type (and which
version) of GIC device is supported. Using this information, libvirt
can warn the user during configuration of guests when specified GIC
device type is not supported. Or better, we can just list those versions
that we support, and filter out the unsupported ones.
For example, if we got the query result:
{"return": [{"emulated": false, "version": 3, "kernel": true},
{"emulated": true, "version": 2, "kernel": false}]}
then it means that we support emulated GIC version 2 using:
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt,accel=tcg,gic-version=2 ...
or KVM-accelerated GIC version 3 using:
qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt,accel=kvm,gic-version=3 ...
If we specify other explicit GIC versions rather than the above, QEMU
will not be able to boot.
The community is working on a more generic way to query these kinds of
information about valid values of machine properties. However, due to
the importance of supporting this specific use case, weecided to first
implement this ad-hoc one; then when the generic method is ready, we
can move on to that one smoothly.

The CpuInfo struct is used only by the 'query-cpus' output
command, so we are free to modify it by adding fields (clients
are already supposed to ignore unknown output fields), or by
changing optional members to mandatory, while still keeping
QMP wire compatibility with older versions of qemu.
When qapi type CpuInfo was originally created for 0.14, we had
no notion of a flat union, and instead just listed a bunch of
optional fields with documentation about the mutually-exclusive
choice of which instruction pointer field(s) would be provided
for a given architecture. But now that we have flat unions and
introspection, it is better to segregate off which fields will
be provided according to the actual architecture. With this in
place, we no longer need the fields to be optional, because the
choice of the new 'arch' discriminator serves that role.
This has an additional benefit: the old all-in-one struct was
the only place in the code base that had a case-sensitive
naming of members 'pc' vs. 'PC'. Separating these spellings
into different branches of the flat union will allow us to add
restrictions against future case-insensitive collisions, since
that is generally a poor interface practice.

While in the long term we want throttling to be its own block filter
BDS, in the short term we want it to be part of the BB instead of a BDS;
even in the long term we may want legacy throttling to be automatically
tied to the BB.
blockdev-insert-medium and blockdev-remove-medium do not retain
throttling information in the BB (deliberately so). Therefore, using
them means tying this information to a BDS, which would break the model
described above. (The same applies to other flags such as
detect_zeroes.) We probably want to move this information to the BB or
its own filter BDS before blockdev-{insert,remove}-medium can be
considered completely stable.
Therefore, mark these functions experimental for the time being.

One of the limitations of the 'blockdev-snapshot-sync' command is that
it does not allow passing BlockdevOptions to the newly created
snapshots, so they are always opened using the default values.
Extending the command to allow passing options is not a practical
solution because there is overlap between those options and some of
the existing parameters of the command.
This patch introduces a new 'blockdev-snapshot' command with a simpler
interface: it just takes two references to existing block devices that
will be used as the source and target for the snapshot.
Since the main difference between the two commands is that one of them
creates and opens the target image, while the other uses an already
opened one, the bulk of the implementation is shared.

BlockAcctStats contains statistics about the data transferred from and
to the device; wr_highest_sector does not fit in with the rest.
Furthermore, those statistics are supposed to be specific for a certain
device and not necessarily for a BDS (see the comment above
bdrv_get_stats()); on the other hand, wr_highest_sector may be a rather
important information to know for each BDS. When BlockAcctStats is
finally removed from the BDS, we will want to keep wr_highest_sector in
the BDS.
Finally, wr_highest_sector is renamed to wr_highest_offset and given the
appropriate meaning. Externally, it is represented as an offset so there
is no point in doing something different internally. Its definition is
changed to match that in qapi/block-core.json which is "the offset after
the greatest byte written to". Doing so should not cause any harm since
if external programs tried to calculate the volume usage by
(wr_highest_offset + 512) / volume_size, after this patch they will just
assume the volume to be full slightly earlier than before.

qapi/introspect.json defines the introspection schema. It's designed
for QMP introspection, but should do for similar uses, such as QGA.
The introspection schema does not reflect all the rules and
restrictions that apply to QAPI schemata. A valid QAPI schema has an
introspection value conforming to the introspection schema, but the
converse is not true.
Introspection lowers away a number of schema details, and makes
implicit things explicit:
* The built-in types are declared with their JSON type.
All integer types are mapped to 'int', because how many bits we use
internally is an implementation detail. It could be pressed into
external interface service as very approximate range information,
but that's a bad idea. If we need range information, we better do
it properly.
* Implicit type definitions are made explicit, and given
auto-generated names:
- Array types, named by appending "List" to the name of their
element type, like in generated C.
- The enumeration types implicitly defined by simple union types,
named by appending "Kind" to the name of their simple union type,
like in generated C.
- Types that don't occur in generated C. Their names start with ':'
so they don't clash with the user's names.
* All type references are by name.
* The struct and union types are generalized into an object type.
* Base types are flattened.
* Commands take a single argument and return a single result.
Dictionary argument or list result is an implicit type definition.
The empty object type is used when a command takes no arguments or
produces no results.
The argument is always of object type, but the introspection schema
doesn't reflect that.
The 'gen': false directive is omitted as implementation detail.
The 'success-response' directive is omitted as well for now, even
though it's not an implementation detail, because it's not used by
QMP.
* Events carry a single data value.
Implicit type definition and empty object type use, just like for
commands.
The value is of object type, but the introspection schema doesn't
reflect that.
* Types not used by commands or events are omitted.
Indirect use counts as use.
* Optional members have a default, which can only be null right now
Instead of a mandatory "optional" flag, we have an optional default.
No default means mandatory, default null means optional without
default value. Non-null is available for optional with default
(possible future extension).
* Clients should *not* look up types by name, because type names are
not ABI. Look up the command or event you're interested in, then
follow the references.
TODO Should we hide the type names to eliminate the temptation?
New generator scripts/qapi-introspect.py computes an introspection
value for its input, and generates a C variable holding it.
It can generate awfully long lines. Marked TODO.
A new test-qmp-input-visitor test case feeds its result for both
tests/qapi-schema/qapi-schema-test.json and qapi-schema.json to a
QmpInputVisitor to verify it actually conforms to the schema.
New QMP command query-qmp-schema takes its return value from that
variable. Its reply is some 85KiBytes for me right now.
If this turns out to be too much, we have a couple of options:
* We can use shorter names in the JSON. Not the QMP style.
* Optionally return the sub-schema for commands and events given as
arguments.
Right now qmp_query_schema() sends the string literal computed by
qmp-introspect.py. To compute sub-schema at run time, we'd have to
duplicate parts of qapi-introspect.py in C. Unattractive.
* Let clients cache the output of query-qmp-schema.
It changes only on QEMU upgrades, i.e. rarely. Provide a command
query-qmp-schema-hash. Clients can have a cache indexed by hash,
and re-query the schema only when they don't have it cached. Even
simpler: put the hash in the QMP greeting.

It doesn't take a 'props' argument, let alone one in the format
"NAME=VALUE,..."
The bogus arguments specification doesn't matter due to 'gen': false.
Clean it up to be incomplete rather than wrong, and document the
incompleteness.
While there, improve netdev_add usage example in the manual: add a
device option to show how it's done.

Provide a dump-skeys qmp command to allow the end user to dump storage
keys. This is useful for debugging problems with guest storage key support
within Qemu and for guest operating system developers.

If we wish to make differential backups a feature that's easy to access,
it might be pertinent to rename the "dirty-bitmap" mode to "incremental"
to make it clear what /type/ of backup the dirty-bitmap is helping us
perform.
This is an API breaking change, but 2.4 has not yet gone live,
so we have this flexibility.

The traditional QMP command handler interface
int qmp_FOO(Monitor *mon, const QDict *params, QObject **ret_data);
doesn't provide for returning an Error object. Instead, the handler
is expected to stash it in the monitor with qerror_report().
When we rebased QMP on top of QAPI, we didn't change this interface.
Instead, commit 776574d introduced "middle mode" as a temporary aid
for converting existing QMP commands to QAPI one by one. More than
three years later, we're still using it.
Middle mode has two effects:
* Instead of the native input marshallers
static void qmp_marshal_input_FOO(QDict *, QObject **, Error **)
it generates input marshallers conforming to the traditional QMP
command handler interface.
* It suppresses generation of code to register them with
qmp_register_command()
This permits giving them internal linkage.
As long as we need qmp-commands.hx, we can't use the registry behind
qmp_register_command(), so the latter has to stay for now.
The former has to go to get rid of qerror_report(). Changing all QMP
commands to fit the QAPI mold in one go was impractical back when we
started, but by now there are just a few stragglers left:
do_qmp_capabilities(), qmp_qom_set(), qmp_qom_get(), qmp_object_add(),
qmp_netdev_add(), do_device_add().
Switch middle mode to generate native input marshallers, and adapt the
stragglers. Simplifies both the monitor code and the stragglers.
Rename do_qmp_capabilities() to qmp_capabilities(), and
do_device_add() to qmp_device_add, because that's how QMP command
handlers are named today.
