b811203cf2 threadpool: move globals into struct ThreadPool
Move global variables into a struct so multiple thread pools can be
supported in the future.

This patch does not change thread-pool.h interfaces.  There is still a
global thread pool and it is not yet possible to create/destroy
individual thread pools.  Moving the variables into a struct first makes
later patches easier to review.

5f3aa1ff47 main-loop: add qemu_get_aio_context()
It is very useful to get the main loop AioContext, which is a static
variable in main-loop.c.

I'm not sure whether qemu_get_aio_context() will be necessary in the
future once devices focus on using their own AioContext instead of the
main loop AioContext, but for now it allows us to refactor code to
support multiple AioContext while actually passing the main loop
AioContext.

381b487d54 qcow2: make is_allocated return true for zero clusters
Otherwise, live migration of the top layer will miss zero clusters and
let the backing file show through.  This also matches what is done in qed.

QCOW2_CLUSTER_ZERO clusters are invalid in v2 image files.  Check this
directly in qcow2_get_cluster_offset instead of replicating the test
everywhere.

f9cb2860bd qcow2: drop flush in update_cluster_refcount()
The update_cluster_refcount() function increments/decrements a cluster's
refcount and then returns the new refcount value.

There is no need to flush since both update_cluster_refcount() callers
already take care of this:

1. qcow2_alloc_bytes() calls update_cluster_refcount() when compressed
   sectors will be appended to an existing cluster with enough free
   space.  qcow2_alloc_bytes() already flushes so there is no need to do
   so in update_cluster_refcount().

2. qcow2_update_snapshot_refcount() sets a cache dependency on refcounts
   if it needs to update L2 entries.  It also flushes before completing.

Removing this flush significantly speeds up qcow2 snapshot creation:

  $ qemu-img create -f qcow2 test.qcow2 -o size=50G,preallocation=metadata
  $ time qemu-img snapshot -c new test.qcow2

Time drops from more than 3 minutes to under 1 second.

2154f24e4e qcow2: flush in qcow2_update_snapshot_refcount()
Users of qcow2_update_snapshot_refcount() do not flush consistently.
qcow2_snapshot_create() flushes but qcow2_snapshot_goto() and
qcow2_snapshot_delete() do not.

Solve this by moving the bdrv_flush() into
qcow2_update_snapshot_refcount().

c1f5bafd70 qcow2: set L2 cache dependency in qcow2_alloc_bytes()
Compressed writes use qcow2_alloc_bytes() to allocate space with byte
granularity.  The affected clusters' refcounts will be incremented but
we do not need to flush yet.

Set a L2 cache dependency on the refcount block cache, so that the
refcounts get written out before the L2 updates.

f6977f1556 qcow2: flush refcount cache correctly in qcow2_write_snapshots()
Since qcow2 metadata is cached we need to flush the caches, not just the
underlying file.  Use bdrv_flush(bs) instead of bdrv_flush(bs->file).

Also add the error return path when bdrv_flush() fails and move the
flush after checking for qcow2_alloc_clusters() failure so that the
qcow2_alloc_clusters() error return value takes precedence.

update_refcount() affects the refcount cache, it does not write to disk.
Therefore bdrv_flush(bs->file) does nothing.  We need to flush the
refcount cache in order to write out the refcount updates!

376609cc6c qemu-option: Add qemu_opts_absorb_qdict()
This adds a function that adds all entries of a QDict to a QemuOpts if
the keys are known, and leaves only the rest in the QDict.

This way a single QDict of -drive options can be processed in multiple
places (generic block layer, block driver, backing file block driver,
etc.), where each part picks the options it knows. If at the end of the
process the QDict isn't empty, the user specified an invalid option.

"chardev: add spice support to qapi"

It is impossible to set the debug parameter, so all the dprintf calls
are essentially nops. Since we've not needed the debug parameter in ages this
is not a problem, if it later turns out we do need some more debugging options
we can add more trace-points.

4524051c32 Add search path support for qemu data files.
This patch allows to specify multiple directories where qemu should look
for data files.  To implement that the behavior of the -L switch is
slightly different now:  Instead of replacing the data directory the
path specified will be appended to the data directory list.  So when
specifiying -L multiple times all directories specified will be checked,
in the order they are specified on the command line, instead of just the
last one.

Additionally the default paths are always appended to the directory
data list.  This allows to specify a incomplete directory (such as the
seabios out/ directory) via -L.  Anything not found there will be loaded
from the default paths, so you don't have to create a symlink farm for
all the rom blobs.

For trouble-shooting a tracepoint has been added, logging which blob
has been loaded from which location.

This patch adds support for cancelling an executing TPM command.
In Linux for example a user can cancel a command through the TPM's
sysfs 'cancel' entry using

echo "1" > /sysfs/class/misc/tpm0/device/cancel

This patch propagates the cancellation of a command inside a VM
to the host TPM's sysfs entry.
It also uses the possibility to cancel the command before QEMU VM
shutdown or reboot, which helps in preventing QEMU from hanging while
waiting for the completion of the command.
To relieve higher layers or users from having to determine the TPM's
cancel sysfs entry, the driver searches for the entry in well known
locations.

4549a8b7ee Add a TPM Passthrough backend driver implementation
This patch is based of off version 9 of Stefan Berger's patch series
  "QEMU Trusted Platform Module (TPM) integration"
and adds a new backend driver for it.

This patch adds a passthrough backend driver for passing commands sent to the
emulated TPM device directly to a TPM device opened on the host machine.
Thus it is possible to use a hardware TPM device in a system running on QEMU,
providing the ability to access a TPM in a special state (e.g. after a Trusted
Boot).

This functionality is being used in the acTvSM Trusted Virtualization Platform
which is available on [1].

Usage example:
  qemu-system-x86_64 -tpmdev passthrough,id=tpm0,path=/dev/tpm0 \
                     -device tpm-tis,tpmdev=tpm0 \
                     -cdrom test.iso -boot d

Some notes about the host TPM:
The TPM needs to be enabled and activated. If that's not the case one
has to go through the BIOS/UEFI and enable and activate that TPM for TPM
commands to work as expected.
It may be necessary to boot the kernel using tpm_tis.force=1 in the boot
command line or 'modprobe tpm_tis force=1' in case of using it as a module.
