A misspelled condition in xen_native.h is hiding a bug in the enablement of
Xen for qemu-system-aarch64. The bug becomes apparent when building for
Xen 4.18.
While the i386 emulator provides the xenpv machine type for multiple architectures,
and therefore can be compiled with Xen enabled even when the host is Arm, the
opposite is not true: qemu-system-aarch64 can only be compiled with Xen support
enabled when the host is Arm.
Expand the computation of accelerator_targets['CONFIG_XEN'] similar to what is
already there for KVM.

This driver is like virtio-balloon on steroids: it allows both changing the
guest memory allocation via ballooning and (in the next patch) inserting
pieces of extra RAM into it on demand from a provided memory backend.
The actual resizing is done via ballooning interface (for example, via
the "balloon" HMP command).
This includes resizing the guest past its boot size - that is, hot-adding
additional memory in granularity limited only by the guest alignment
requirements, as provided by the next patch.
In contrast with ACPI DIMM hotplug where one can only request to unplug a
whole DIMM stick this driver allows removing memory from guest in single
page (4k) units via ballooning.
After a VM reboot the guest is back to its original (boot) size.
In the future, the guest boot memory size might be changed on reboot
instead, taking into account the effective size that VM had before that
reboot (much like Hyper-V does).
For performance reasons, the guest-released memory is tracked in a few
range trees, as a series of (start, count) ranges.
Each time a new page range is inserted into such tree its neighbors are
checked as candidates for possible merging with it.
Besides performance reasons, the Dynamic Memory protocol itself uses page
ranges as the data structure in its messages, so relevant pages need to be
merged into such ranges anyway.
One has to be careful when tracking the guest-released pages, since the
guest can maliciously report returning pages outside its current address
space, which later clash with the address range of newly added memory.
Similarly, the guest can report freeing the same page twice.
The above design results in much better ballooning performance than when
using virtio-balloon with the same guest: 230 GB / minute with this driver
versus 70 GB / minute with virtio-balloon.
During a ballooning operation most of time is spent waiting for the guest
to come up with newly freed page ranges, processing the received ranges on
the host side (in QEMU and KVM) is nearly instantaneous.
The unballoon operation is also pretty much instantaneous:
thanks to the merging of the ballooned out page ranges 200 GB of memory can
be returned to the guest in about 1 second.
With virtio-balloon this operation takes about 2.5 minutes.
These tests were done against a Windows Server 2019 guest running on a
Xeon E5-2699, after dirtying the whole memory inside guest before each
balloon operation.
Using a range tree instead of a bitmap to track the removed memory also
means that the solution scales well with the guest size: even a 1 TB range
takes just a few bytes of such metadata.
Since the required GTree operations aren't present in every Glib version
a check for them was added to the meson build script, together with new
"--enable-hv-balloon" and "--disable-hv-balloon" configure arguments.
If these GTree operations are missing in the system's Glib version this
driver will be skipped during QEMU build.
An optional "status-report=on" device parameter requests memory status
events from the guest (typically sent every second), which allow the host
to learn both the guest memory available and the guest memory in use
counts.
Following commits will add support for their external emission as
"HV_BALLOON_STATUS_REPORT" QMP events.
The driver is named hv-balloon since the Linux kernel client driver for
the Dynamic Memory Protocol is named as such and to follow the naming
pattern established by the virtio-balloon driver.
The whole protocol runs over Hyper-V VMBus.
The driver was tested against Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016
and Windows Server 2019 guests and obeys the guest alignment requirements
reported to the host via DM_CAPABILITIES_REPORT message.

vhost-user-scsi has a VirtioDeviceClass->reset() function that calls
->vhost_reset_device(). The other vhost devices don't notify the vhost
device upon reset.
Stateful vhost devices may need to handle device reset in order to free
resources or prevent stale device state from interfering after reset.
Call ->vhost_device_reset() from virtio_reset() so that that vhost
devices are notified of device reset.
This patch affects behavior as follows:
- vhost-kernel: No change in behavior since ->vhost_reset_device() is
not implemented.
- vhost-user: back-ends that negotiate
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_RESET_DEVICE now receive a
VHOST_USER_DEVICE_RESET message upon device reset. Otherwise there is
no change in behavior. DPDK, SPDK, libvhost-user, and the
vhost-user-backend crate do not negotiate
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_RESET_DEVICE automatically.
- vhost-vdpa: an extra SET_STATUS 0 call is made during device reset.

Say QEMU is configured with bindir = "/usr/bin" and a firmware path
that starts with "/usr/share/qemu". Ever since QEMU 5.2, QEMU's
install has been relocatable: if you move qemu-system-x86_64 from
/usr/bin to /home/username/bin, it will start looking for firmware in
/home/username/share/qemu. Previously, you would get a non-relocatable
install where the moved QEMU will keep looking for firmware in
/usr/share/qemu.
Windows almost always wants relocatable installs, and in fact that
is why QEMU 5.2 introduced relocatability in the first place.
However, newfangled distribution mechanisms such as AppImage
(https://docs.appimage.org/reference/best-practices.html), and
possibly NixOS, also dislike using at runtime the absolute paths
that were established at build time.
On POSIX systems you almost never care; if you do, your usecase
dictates which one is desirable, so there's no single answer.
Obviously relocatability works fine most of the time, because not many
people have complained about QEMU's switch to relocatable install,
and that's why until now there was no way to disable relocatability.
But a non-relocatable, non-modular binary can help if you want to do
experiments with old firmware and new QEMU or vice versa (because you
can just upgrade/downgrade the firmware package, and use rpm2cpio or
similar to extract the QEMU binaries outside /usr), so allow both.
This patch allows one to build a non-relocatable install using a new
option to configure. Why? Because it's not too hard, and because
it helps the user double check the relocatability of their install.
Note that the same code that handles relocation also lets you run QEMU
from the build tree and pick e.g. firmware files from the source tree
transparently. Therefore that part remains active with this patch,
even if you configure with --disable-relocatable.

While the default QEMU optimization level is 2, user could override
this by setting CFLAGS="-O0" or --extra-cflags="-O0" when running
configure and this won't be reflected in the meson 'optimization'
setting. As a result we try to enable _FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 and then the
user gets compile errors as it only works with optimization.
Rather than trying to improve detection in meson, it is simpler to
just check the __OPTIMIZE__ define from osdep.h.
The comment about being incompatible with clang appears to be

Commit 0db0fbb5cf ("Add conditional dependency for libkeyutils")
tried to provide a possibility for the user to disable keyutils
if not required by makeing it depend on the keyring feature. This
looked reasonable at a first glance (the unit test in tests/unit/
needs both), but the condition in meson.build fails if the feature
is meant to be detected automatically, and there is also another
spot in backends/meson.build where keyutils is used independently
from keyring. So let's remove the dependency on keyring again and
introduce a proper meson build option instead.

AF_XDP is a network socket family that allows communication directly
with the network device driver in the kernel, bypassing most or all
of the kernel networking stack. In the essence, the technology is
pretty similar to netmap. But, unlike netmap, AF_XDP is Linux-native
and works with any network interfaces without driver modifications.
Unlike vhost-based backends (kernel, user, vdpa), AF_XDP doesn't
require access to character devices or unix sockets. Only access to
the network interface itself is necessary.
This patch implements a network backend that communicates with the
kernel by creating an AF_XDP socket. A chunk of userspace memory
is shared between QEMU and the host kernel. 4 ring buffers (Tx, Rx,
Fill and Completion) are placed in that memory along with a pool of
memory buffers for the packet data. Data transmission is done by
allocating one of the buffers, copying packet data into it and
placing the pointer into Tx ring. After transmission, device will
return the buffer via Completion ring. On Rx, device will take
a buffer form a pre-populated Fill ring, write the packet data into
it and place the buffer into Rx ring.
AF_XDP network backend takes on the communication with the host
kernel and the network interface and forwards packets to/from the
peer device in QEMU.
Usage example:
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=guest1,mac=00:16:35:AF:AA:5C
-netdev af-xdp,ifname=ens6f1np1,id=guest1,mode=native,queues=1
XDP program bridges the socket with a network interface. It can be
attached to the interface in 2 different modes:
1. skb - this mode should work for any interface and doesn't require
driver support. With a caveat of lower performance.
2. native - this does require support from the driver and allows to
bypass skb allocation in the kernel and potentially use
zero-copy while getting packets in/out userspace.
By default, QEMU will try to use native mode and fall back to skb.
Mode can be forced via 'mode' option. To force 'copy' even in native
mode, use 'force-copy=on' option. This might be useful if there is
some issue with the driver.
Option 'queues=N' allows to specify how many device queues should
be open. Note that all the queues that are not open are still
functional and can receive traffic, but it will not be delivered to
QEMU. So, the number of device queues should generally match the
QEMU configuration, unless the device is shared with something
else and the traffic re-direction to appropriate queues is correctly
configured on a device level (e.g. with ethtool -N).
'start-queue=M' option can be used to specify from which queue id
QEMU should start configuring 'N' queues. It might also be necessary
to use this option with certain NICs, e.g. MLX5 NICs. See the docs
for examples.
In a general case QEMU will need CAP_NET_ADMIN and CAP_SYS_ADMIN
or CAP_BPF capabilities in order to load default XSK/XDP programs to
the network interface and configure BPF maps. It is possible, however,
to run with no capabilities. For that to work, an external process
with enough capabilities will need to pre-load default XSK program,
create AF_XDP sockets and pass their file descriptors to QEMU process
on startup via 'sock-fds' option. Network backend will need to be
configured with 'inhibit=on' to avoid loading of the program.
QEMU will need 32 MB of locked memory (RLIMIT_MEMLOCK) per queue
or CAP_IPC_LOCK.
There are few performance challenges with the current network backends.
First is that they do not support IO threads. This means that data
path is handled by the main thread in QEMU and may slow down other
work or may be slowed down by some other work. This also means that
taking advantage of multi-queue is generally not possible today.
Another thing is that data path is going through the device emulation
code, which is not really optimized for performance. The fastest
"frontend" device is virtio-net. But it's not optimized for heavy
traffic either, because it expects such use-cases to be handled via
some implementation of vhost (user, kernel, vdpa). In practice, we
have virtio notifications and rcu lock/unlock on a per-packet basis
and not very efficient accesses to the guest memory. Communication
channels between backend and frontend devices do not allow passing
more than one packet at a time as well.
Some of these challenges can be avoided in the future by adding better
batching into device emulation or by implementing vhost-af-xdp variant.
There are also a few kernel limitations. AF_XDP sockets do not
support any kinds of checksum or segmentation offloading. Buffers
are limited to a page size (4K), i.e. MTU is limited. Multi-buffer
support implementation for AF_XDP is in progress, but not ready yet.
Also, transmission in all non-zero-copy modes is synchronous, i.e.
done in a syscall. That doesn't allow high packet rates on virtual
interfaces.
However, keeping in mind all of these challenges, current implementation
of the AF_XDP backend shows a decent performance while running on top
of a physical NIC with zero-copy support.
Test setup:
2 VMs running on 2 physical hosts connected via ConnectX6-Dx card.
Network backend is configured to open the NIC directly in native mode.
The driver supports zero-copy. NIC is configured to use 1 queue.
Inside a VM - iperf3 for basic TCP performance testing and dpdk-testpmd
for PPS testing.

In skb mode the same setup shows much lower performance, similar to
the setup where pair of physical NICs is replaced with veth pair:

Results in skb mode or over the veth are close to results of a tap

with a NIC.

qemu 8.1.0 breaks on illumos platforms due to _XOPEN_SOURCE and others no longer being set correctly, leading to breakage such as:
https://us-central.manta.mnx.io/pkgsrc/public/reports/trunk/tools/20230908.1404/qemu-8.1.0/build.log
This is a result of meson conversion which incorrectly matches against 'solaris' instead of 'sunos' for uname.
First time submitting a patch here, hope I did it correctly. Thanks.

There are no config-host.mak symbols anymore that are needed in
config-host.h; the only symbols that are included in config_host_data via
the foreach loop are:
- CONFIG_DEFAULT_TARGETS, which is not used by C code.
- CONFIG_TCG and CONFIG_TCG_INTERPRETER, which are not part of config-host.mak
So, list these two symbols explicitly.

Stop applying config-host.mak to the sourcesets, since it does not
have any more CONFIG_* symbols coming from the command line.
Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
CONFIG_SOLARIS is only used to pick tap implementations. But the
target OS is invariant and does not depend on the configuration, so move
away from config_host and just use unconditional rules in softmmu_ss.

While the option still needs to be parsed in the configure script
(it's needed by tests/tcg, and also to decide about recursing
into contrib/plugins), passing it to Meson can be done with -D
instead of using config-host.mak.

Unsupported CPU and OSes are not really going away, but the
project simply does not guarantee that they work. Rephrase
the messages accordingly. While at it, move the warning for
TCI performance at the end where it is more visible.

Recent versions of macOS use clang instead of gcc. The OS_OBJECT_USE_OBJC
define is only necessary when building with gcc. Let's not define it when
building with clang.
With this patch, I can successfully include GCD headers in QEMU when
building with clang.

HAX is deprecated since commits 73741fda6c ("MAINTAINERS: Abort
HAXM maintenance") and 90c167a1da ("docs/about/deprecated: Mark
HAXM in QEMU as deprecated"), released in v8.0.0.
Per the latest HAXM release (v7.8 [*]), the latest QEMU supported
is v7.2:
Note: Up to this release, HAXM supports QEMU from 2.9.0 to 7.2.0.
The next commit (https://github.com/intel/haxm/commit/da1b8ec072)
added:
HAXM v7.8.0 is our last release and we will not accept
pull requests or respond to issues after this.
It became very hard to build and test HAXM. Its previous
maintainers made it clear they won't help. It doesn't seem to be
a very good use of QEMU maintainers to spend their time in a dead
project. Save our time by removing this orphan zombie code.
