This removes unused POWERPC_MMU_2_06a/POWERPC_MMU_2_06d.
This replaces POWERPC_MMU_64B with POWERPC_MMU_2_03 for POWER5+ to be
more explicit about the version of the PowerISA supported.
This defines POWERPC_MMU_2_07 and uses it for the POWER8 CPU family.
This will not have an immediate effect now but it will in the following
patch.
This should cause no behavioural change.

The core VFIO infrastructure more or less allows VFIO devices to work
on any normal guest PCI host bridge (PHB) without extra logic.
However, the "spapr-pci-host-bridge" device (as opposed to the special
"spapr-pci-vfio-host-bridge" device) breaks this by using a partially
KVM accelerated implementation of the guest kernel IOMMU which won't
work with VFIO devices, without additional kernel support.
This patch allows VFIO devices to work on the spapr-pci-host-bridge,
by having it switch off KVM TCE acceleration when a VFIO device is
added to the PHB (either on startup, or by hotplug).

Because of the way non-VFIO guest IOMMU operations are KVM accelerated, not
all TCE tables (guest IOMMU contexts) can support VFIO devices. Currently,
this is decided at creation time.
To support hotplug of VFIO devices, we need to allow a TCE table which
previously didn't allow VFIO devices to be switched so that it can. This
patch adds an spapr_tce_set_need_vfio() function to do this, by
reallocating the table in userspace if necessary.
Currently this doesn't allow the KVM acceleration to be re-enabled if all
the VFIO devices are removed. That's an optimization for another time.

The vfio_accel parameter used when creating a new TCE table (guest IOMMU
context) has a confusing name. What it really means is whether we need the
TCE table created to be able to support VFIO devices.
VFIO is relevant, because when available we use in-kernel acceleration of
the TCE table, but that may not work with VFIO devices because updates to
the table are handled in kernel, bypass qemu and so don't hit qemu's
infrastructure for keeping the VFIO host IOMMU state in sync with the guest
IOMMU state.
Rename the parameter to "need_vfio" throughout. This is a cosmetic change,
with no impact on the logic.

At present the PCI host bridge (PHB) for the pseries machine type has a
fixed DMA window from 0..1GB (in PCI address space) which is mapped to real
memory via the PAPR paravirtualized IOMMU.
For better support of VFIO devices, we're going to want to allow for
different configurations of the DMA window.
Eventually we'll want to allow the guest itself to reconfigure the window
via the PAPR dynamic DMA window interface, but as a preliminary this patch
allows the user to reconfigure the window with new properties on the PHB
device.

Commit 4d00636e97 ("ich9: Add the lpc chip", Nov 14 2012) added the
ich9_apm_ctrl_changed() ioport write callback function such that it would
inject the SMI, in response to a write to the APM_CNT register, on the
first CPU, invariably.
Since this register is used by guest code to trigger an SMI synchronously,
the interrupt should be injected on the VCPU that is performing the write.
apm_ioport_writeb() is the .write callback of the "apm_ops"
MemoryRegionOps [hw/isa/apm.c]; it is parametrized to call
ich9_apm_ctrl_changed() by ich9_lpc_init() [hw/isa/lpc_ich9.c], via
apm_init(). Therefore this change affects no other board.
ich9_generate_smi() is an unrelated function that is called by the TCO
watchdog; a watchdog is likely in its right to (asynchronously) inject
interrupts on the first CPU only.
This patch allows the combined edk2/OVMF SMM driver stack to work with
multiple VCPUs on TCG, using both qemu-system-i386 and qemu-system-x86_64.

When a live migration is started the log address to mark dirty pages is provided
to the vhost backend through the vhost_dev_set_log function.
This function is called for each queue pairs but the queue index is wrongly set:
always set to the first queue pair. Then vhost backend lost descriptor addresses
of the queue pairs greater than 1 and behaviour of the vhost backend is
unpredictable.
The queue index is computed by taking account of the vq_index (to retrieve the
queue pair index) and calling the vhost_get_vq_index method of the backend.

A new vhost user message is added to allow QEMU to ask to vhost user backend to
broadcast a fake RARP after live migration for guest without GUEST_ANNOUNCE
capability.
This new message is sent only if the backend supports the new
VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_RARP protocol feature.
The payload of this new message is the MAC address of the guest (not known by
the backend). The MAC address is copied in the first 6 bytes of a u64 to avoid
to create a new payload message type.
This new message has no equivalent ioctl so a new callback is added in the
userOps structure to send the request.
Upon reception of this new message the vhost user backend must generate and

1. Add the VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE capability to vhost-net when netdev

2. Provide a nop receive callback to vhost-user.
This callback is called by:
* qemu_announce_self after a migration to send fake RARP to avoid network
outage for peers talking to the migrated guest.
- For guest with GUEST_ANNOUNCE capabilities, guest already sends GARP
when the bit VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE is set.
=> These packets must be discarded.
- For guest without GUEST_ANNOUNCE capabilities, migration termination
is notified when the guest sends packets.
=> These packets can be discarded.

BIOS guest manages virtio driver to send 4 bootp/dhcp request in case of

Implement memfd_create() fallback if not available in system libc.
memfd_create() is still not included in glibc today, atlhough it's been

memfd has numerous advantages over traditional shm/mmap for ipc memory
sharing with fd handler, which we are going to make use of for
vhost-user logging memory in following patches.
The next patches are going to introduce helpers to use best practices of
memfd usage and provide some compatibility fallback. memfd.c is thus
temporarily useless and eventually empty if memfd_create() is provided
