ac97 has drivers for Vista 64-bit whereas sb16 and es1370 do not appear to. I asked malc why it was disabled and he said it was because it was GPL. He did not object to enabling it now that more QEMU code is GPL'd.

2008-12-04Use writeback caching by default with qcow2aliguori
qcow2 writes a cluster reference count on every cluster update. This causes performance to crater when using anything but cache=writeback. This is most noticeable when using savevm. Right now, qcow2 isn't a reliable format regardless of the type of cache your using because metadata is not updated in the correct order. Considering this, I think it's somewhat reasonable to use writeback caching by default with qcow2 files. It at least avoids the massive performance regression for users until we sort out the issues in qcow2.

2008-11-25Revert r5636 to fix icount on hosts w/o high-res clocksaliguori
Changeset r5636 changed the timers to run in the alarm callback. The alarm callback can only be called as frequently as the host alarm timer fires. For older Linux hosts and possibly non-Linux hosts, this can be as high as a 1ms granularity. icount calculates the select timeout based on the next deadline and select is usually capable of sleeping for a short period of time than alarm timer granularity. This means that changing the timer callbacks to be based on alarm firing caused timers to fire much later than they ought to when using icount.

2008-11-18gdbstub: manage CPUs as threads (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
This patch enhances QEMU's built-in debugger for SMP guest debugging. Using the thread support of the gdb remote protocol, each VCPU is mapped on a pseudo thread and exposed to the gdb frontend. This way you can easy switch the focus of gdb between the VCPUs and observe their states. On breakpoint hit, the focus is automatically adjusted just as for normal multi-threaded application under gdb control. Furthermore, the patch propagates breakpoint and watchpoint insertions or removals to all CPUs, not just the current one as it was the case so far. Without this, SMP guest debugging was practically unfeasible.

2008-11-11Reintroduce migrate-to-exec: support (Charles Duffy)aliguori
KVM's live migration support included support for exec: URLs, allowing system state to be written or received via an arbitrary popen()ed subprocess. This provides a convenient way to pipe state through a compression algorithm or an arbitrary network transport on its way to its destination, and a convenient way to write state to disk; libvirt's qemu driver currently uses migration to exec: targets for this latter purpose.

2008-11-05Fix alarm_timer race with select - v3 (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Changing the default IO timeout to 5 s (#5578) made a race visible between the alarm_timer and select() in main_loop_wait(): If the timer fired before select was able to block, the full select() timeout could have been applied instead of returning immediately. Since #5578, this causes heavy problems to the Musicpal board emulation with stalls up to 5 s, but also with some older Linux guest kernels. The following patch introduces a pipe that is written to by host_alarm_handler and select()'ed in main_loop_wait(). This avoids prevents that select() blocks though a timer has fired and waits for processing.

2008-11-05Add KVM support to QEMUaliguori
This patch adds very basic KVM support. KVM is a kernel module for Linux that allows userspace programs to make use of hardware virtualization support. It current supports x86 hardware virtualization using Intel VT-x or AMD-V. It also supports IA64 VT-i, PPC 440, and S390. This patch only implements the bare minimum support to get a guest booting. It has very little impact the rest of QEMU and attempts to integrate nicely with the rest of QEMU. Even though this implementation is basic, it is significantly faster than TCG. Booting and shutting down a Linux guest: w/TCG: 1:32.36 elapsed 84% CPU w/KVM: 0:31.14 elapsed 59% CPU Right now, KVM is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled with -enable-kvm. We can enable it by default later when we have had better testing.

2008-10-31Increase default IO timeout from 10ms to 5saliguori
With the recent changes to the main loop, we no longer have unconditional polling. This means we can now sleep in select() for much longer than we previously did.

2008-10-31Implement "info chardev" command. (Gerd Hoffmann)aliguori
This patch makes qemu keep track of the character devices in use and implements a "info chardev" monitor command to print a list. qemu_chr_open() sticks the devices into a linked list now. It got a new argument (label), so there is a name for each device. It also assigns a filename to each character device. By default it just copyes the filename passed in. Individual drivers can fill in something else though. qemu_chr_open_pty() sets the filename to name of the pseudo tty allocated. Output looks like this: (qemu) info chardev monitor: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/monitor,server,nowait serial0: filename=unix:/tmp/run.sh-26827/console,server serial1: filename=pty:/dev/pts/5 parallel0: filename=vc:640x480 Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> git-svn-id: svn://svn.savannah.nongnu.org/qemu/trunk@5575 c046a42c-6fe2-441c-8c8c-71466251a162
2008-10-31Make DMA bottom-half driven (v2)aliguori
The current DMA routines are driven by a call in main_loop_wait() after every select. This patch converts the DMA code to be driven by a constantly rescheduled bottom half. The advantage of using a scheduled bottom half is that we can stop scheduling the bottom half when there no DMA channels are runnable. This means we can potentially detect this case and sleep longer in the main loop. The only two architectures implementing DMA_run() are cris and i386. For cris, I converted it to a simple repeating bottom half. I've only compile tested this as cris does not seem to work on a 64-bit host. It should be functionally identical to the previous implementation so I expect it to work. For x86, I've made sure to only fire the DMA bottom half if there is a DMA channel that is runnable. The effect of this is that unless you're using sb16 or a floppy disk, the DMA bottom half never fires. You probably should test this malc. My own benchmarks actually show slight improvement by it's possible the change in timing could affect your demos. Since v1, I've changed the code to use a BH instead of a timer. cris at least seems to depend on faster than 10ms polling.

2008-10-31Make bottom halves more robustaliguori
Bottom halves are supposed to not complete until the next iteration of the main loop. This is very important to ensure that guests can not cause stack overflows in the block driver code. Right now, if you attempt to schedule a bottom half within a bottom half callback, you will enter an infinite loop. This patch uses the same logic that we use for the IOHandler loop to make the bottom half processing robust in list manipulation while in a callback. This patch also introduces idle scheduling for bottom halves. qemu_bh_poll() returns an indication of whether any bottom halves were successfully executed. qemu_aio_wait() uses this to immediately return if a bottom half was executed instead of waiting for a completion notification. qemu_bh_schedule_idle() works around this by not reporting the callback has run in the qemu_bh_poll loop. qemu_aio_wait() probably needs some refactoring but that would require a larger code audit. idle scheduling seems like a good compromise.

2008-10-13Fix some issues with QEMUFilealiguori
This patch allows QEMUFile's read and write operations to return negative error codes. This is necessary to detect things like closed streams during live migration. It also removes unused code for QEMUFileFD write path. Finally, it makes sure to avoid attempting to flush an output buffer if the file is only being used for input. This was spotted by Uri Lublin.
