Dr. David Alan Gilbert a202a4c001 migration: size_t'ify some of qemu-file
This is a start on using size_t more in qemu-file and friends;
it fixes up QEMUFilePutBufferFunc and QEMUFileGetBufferFunc
to take size_t lengths and return ssize_t return values (like read(2))
and fixes up all the different implementations of them.

Note that I've not yet followed this deeply into bdrv_ implementations.

Anthony PERARD c69adea462 migration: Fix global state with Xen.
When doing migration via the QMP command xen_save_devices_state, the
current runstate is not store into the global state section. Also the
current runstate is not the one we want on the receiver side.

During migration, the Xen toolstack paused QEMU before save the devices
state. Also, the toolstack expect QEMU to autostart when the migration is
finished.
So this patch store "running" as it's current runstate.

Juan Quintela 560d027b54 migration: We also want to store the global state for savevm
Commit df4b102452 introduced global_state
section.  But it only filled the state while doing migration.  While
doing a savevm, we stored an empty string as state.  So when we did a
loadvm, it complained that state was invalid.

Juan Quintela df4b102452 migration: create new section to store global state
This includes a new section that for now just stores the current qemu state.

Right now, there are only one way to control what is the state of the
target after migration.

- If you run the target qemu with -S, it would start stopped.
- If you run the target qemu without -S, it would run just after migration finishes.

The problem here is what happens if we start the target without -S and
there happens one error during migration that puts current state as
-EIO.  Migration would ends (notice that the error happend doing block
IO, network IO, i.e. nothing related with migration), and when
migration finish, we would just "continue" running on destination,
probably hanging the guest/corruption data, whatever.

Dr. David Alan Gilbert f68945d42b Add a protective section footer
Badly formatted migration streams can go undetected or produce
misleading errors due to a lock of checking at the end of sections.
In particular a section that adds an extra 0x00 at the end
causes what looks like a normal end of stream and thus doesn't produce
any errors, and something that ends in a 0x01..0x04 kind of look
like real section headers and then fail when the section parser tries
to figure out which section they are.  This is made worse by the
choice of 0x00..0x04 being small numbers that are particularly common
in normal section data.

This patch adds a section footer consisting of a marker (0x7e - ~)
followed by the section-id that was also sent in the header.  If
they mismatch then it throws an error explaining which section was
being loaded.

Alexander Graf 8118f0950f migration: Append JSON description of migration stream
One of the annoyances of the current migration format is the fact that
it's not self-describing. In fact, it's not properly describing at all.
Some code randomly scattered throughout QEMU elaborates roughly how to
read and write a stream of bytes.

We discussed an idea during KVM Forum 2013 to add a JSON description of
the migration protocol itself to the migration stream. This patch
adds a section after the VM_END migration end marker that contains
description data on what the device sections of the stream are composed of.

This approach is backwards compatible with any QEMU version reading the
stream, because QEMU just stops reading after the VM_END marker and ignores
any data following it.

With an additional external program this allows us to decipher the
contents of any migration stream and hopefully make migration bugs easier
to track down.

Alexander Graf 9722140011 qemu-file: Add fast ftell code path
For ftell we flush the output buffer to ensure that we don't have anything
lingering in our internal buffers. This is a very safe thing to do.

However, with the dynamic size measurement that the dynamic vmstate
description will bring this would turn out quite slow.

Instead, we can fast path this specific measurement and just take the
internal buffers into account when telling the kernel our position.

I'm sure I overlooked some corner cases where this doesn't work, so
instead of tuning the safe, existing version, this patch adds a fast
variant of ftell that gets used by the dynamic vmstate description code
which isn't critical when it fails.

Alexey Kardashevskiy 94ed706d53 vmstate: Allow dynamic allocation for VBUFFER during migration
This extends use of VMS_ALLOC flag from arrays to VBUFFER as well.

This defines VMSTATE_VBUFFER_ALLOC_UINT32 which makes use of VMS_ALLOC
and uses uint32_t type for a size.

Dr. David Alan Gilbert deb22f9a44 QEMUSizedBuffer based QEMUFile
This is based on Stefan and Joel's patch that creates a QEMUFile that goes
to a memory buffer; from:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2013-03/msg05036.html

Using the QEMUFile interface, this patch adds support functions for
operating on in-memory sized buffers that can be written to or read from.

Alexey Kardashevskiy f32935ea22 vmstate: Add preallocation for migrating arrays (VMS_ALLOC flag)
There are few helpers already to support array migration. However they all
require the destination side to preallocate arrays before migration which
is not always possible due to unknown array size as it might be some
sort of dynamic state. One of the examples is an array of MSIX-enabled
devices in SPAPR PHB - this array may vary from 0 to 65536 entries and
its size depends on guest's ability to enable MSIX or do PCI hotplug.

This adds new VMSTATE_VARRAY_STRUCT_ALLOC macro which is pretty similar to
VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_POINTER_INT32 but it can alloc memory for migratign
array on the destination side.

This defines VMS_ALLOC flag for a field.

This changes vmstate_base_addr() to do the allocation when receiving
migration.

Amit Shah abfd9ce341 migration: dump vmstate info as a json file for static analysis
This commit adds a new command, '-dump-vmstate', that takes a filename
as an argument.  When executed, QEMU will dump the vmstate information
for the machine type it's invoked with to the file, and quit.

The JSON-format output can then be used to compare the vmstate info for
different QEMU versions, specifically to test whether live migration
would break due to changes in the vmstate data.

A Python script that compares the output of such JSON dumps is included
in the following commit.

Dr. David Alan Gilbert 548f52ea06 Make qemu_peek_buffer loop until it gets it's data
Make qemu_peek_buffer repeatedly call fill_buffer until it gets
all the data it requires, or until there is an error.

  At the moment, qemu_peek_buffer will try one qemu_fill_buffer if there
  isn't enough data waiting, however the kernel is entitled to return
  just a few bytes, and still leave qemu_peek_buffer with less bytes
  than it needed.  I've seen this fail in a dev world, and I think it
  could theoretically fail in the peeking of the subsection headers in
  the current world.

Comment qemu_peek_byte to point out it's not guaranteed to work for
  non-continuous peeks
