Previous implementation of has_ufo, has_vnet_hdr, has_vnet_hdr_len, etc. did not really probe for virtio-net header support for the netmap interface attached to the backend. These callbacks were correct for VALE ports, but incorrect for hardware NICs, pipes, monitors, etc. This patch fixes the implementation to work properly with all kinds of netmap ports. Signed-off-by:

net_init_tap_one receives in vhostfdname a fd name from vhostfd= or vhostfds=, or NULL if there is no vhostfd=/vhostfds=. It is simpler to just check vhostfdname, than it is to check for vhostfd= or vhostfds=. This also calms down Coverity, which otherwise thinks that monitor_fd_param could dereference a NULL vhostfdname. Signed-off-by:

Qemu may crash when we want to add two filters on the same netdev but the initialization of second fails (e.g missing parameters): ./qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev user,id=un0 \ -object filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=un0,interval=10 \ -object filter-buffer,id=f1,netdev=un0 Segmentation fault (core dumped) This is because we don't check whether or not the filter was in the list of netdev.

Under heavy workloads the lookup will likely end up with the same MemoryRegionSection from last time. Using a pointer to cache the result, like ram_list.mru_block, significantly reduces cost of address_space_translate. During address space topology update, as->dispatch will be reallocated so the pointer is invalidated automatically. Perf reports a visible drop on the cpu usage, because phys_page_find is not called.

Commit 96c33a45 ("log: Redirect stderr to logfile if deamonized", 2016-02-22) wanted to move stderr of a daemonized QEMU to the file specified with -D. However, if -D was not passed, the patch had the side effect of not redirecting stderr to /dev/null. This happened because qemu_logfile was set to stderr rather than the expected value of NULL. The fix is simply in the "if" condition of do_qemu_set_log; the "if" for closing the file is also changed to match. Reported-by:

An upcoming patch will alter how simple unions, like InputEvent, are laid out, which will impact all lines of the form 'evt->u.XXX' (expanding it to the longer 'evt->u.XXX.data'). For better legibility in that patch, and less need for line wrapping, it's better to use a temporary variable to reduce the effect of a layout change to just the variable initializations, rather than every reference within an InputEvent. There was one instance in hid.c:hid_pointer_event() where the code was referring to evt->u.rel inside the case label where evt->u.abs is the correct name; thankfully, both members of the union have the same type, so it happened to work, but it is now cleaner.

Several commits have been changing the generator, but not updating the docs to match: - The implicit tag member is named "type", not "kind". Screwed up in commit 39a18158. - Commit 9f08c8ec made list types lazy, and thereby dropped UserDefOneList if nothing explicitly uses the list type. - Commit 51e72bc1 switched the parameter order with 'name' occurring earlier. - Commit e65d89bf changed the layout of UserDefOneList. - Prefer the term 'member' over 'field'. - We now expose visit_type_FOO_members() for objects. - etc. Rework the examples to show slightly more output (we don't want to show too much; that's what the testsuite is for), and regenerate the output to match all recent changes. Also, rearrange output to show .h files before .c (understanding the interface first often makes the implementation easier to follow). Reported-by:

Dan Berrange reported a case where he needs to work with a QCryptoBlockOptions union type using the OptsVisitor, but only visit one of the branches of that type (the discriminator is not visited directly, but learned externally). When things were boxed, it was easy: just visit the variant directly, which took care of both allocating the variant and visiting its members, then store that pointer in the union type. But now that things are unboxed, we need a way to visit the members without allocation, done by exposing visit_type_FOO_members() to the user. Before the patch, we had quite a bit of code associated with object_members_seen to make sure that a declaration of the helper was in scope before any use of the function. But now that the helper is public and declared in the header, the .c file no longer needs to worry about topological sorting (the helper is always in scope), which leads to some nice cleanups.

Pretty printing of JSON responses is important to be able to understand large responses from query commands in particular. Unfortunately this was broken during the addition of the verbose flag in commit 1ceca07e Author: John Snow <jsnow@redhat.com> Date: Wed Apr 29 15:14:04 2015 -0400 scripts: qmp-shell: Add verbose flag This is because that change turned the python data structure into a formatted JSON string before the pretty print was given it. So we're just pretty printing a string, which is a no-op. The original pretty printer would output python objects. (QEMU) query-chardev { u'return': [ { u'filename': u'vc', u'frontend-open': False, u'label': u'parallel0'}, { u'filename': u'vc', u'frontend-open': True, u'label': u'serial0'}, { u'filename': u'unix:/tmp/qemp,server', u'frontend-open': True, u'label': u'compat_monitor0'}]} This fixes the problem by switching to outputting pretty formatted JSON text instead. This has the added benefit that the pretty printed output is now valid JSON text. Due to the way the verbose flag was handled, the pretty printing now applies to the command sent, as well as its response: (QEMU) query-chardev { "execute": "query-chardev", "arguments": {} } { "return": [ { "frontend-open": false, "label": "parallel0", "filename": "vc" }, { "frontend-open": true, "label": "serial0", "filename": "vc" }, { "frontend-open": true, "label": "compat_monitor0", "filename": "unix:/tmp/qmp,server" } ] } Signed-off-by:

Some CPUs are of an opposite data-endianness to other components in the system. Sometimes elfs have the data sections layed out with this CPU data-endianness accounting for when loaded via the CPU, so byte swaps (relative to other system components) will occur. The leading example, is ARM's BE32 mode, which is is basically LE with address manipulation on half-word and byte accesses to access the hw/byte reversed address. This means that word data is invariant across LE and BE32. This also means that instructions are still LE. The expectation is that the elf will be loaded via the CPU in this endianness scheme, which means the data in the elf is reversed at compile time. As QEMU loads via the system memory directly, rather than the CPU, we need a mechanism to reverse elf data endianness to implement this possibility. Reviewed-by:
