libcacard: fix wrong array expansion logic
The currrent code in libcacard/vcard_emul_nss.c:vcard_emul_options()
has a weird bug in variable usage around expanding opts->vreader
array.
There's a helper variable, vreaderOpt, which is first needlessly
initialized to NULL, next, conditionally, only we have to expand
opts->vreader, receives array expansion from g_renew(), and next,
even if we don't actually perform expansion, the value of this
variable is assigned to the actual array, opts->vreader, which
was supposed to be expanded.
So, since we expand the array by READER_STEP increments, only
once in READER_STEP (=4) the code will work, in other 3/4 times
it will fail badly.
Fix this by not using this temp variable when expanding the
array, and by dropping the useless =NULL initializer too -
if it wasn't in place initially, compiler would have warned
us about this problem at the beginning.
libcacard/vcard_emul_nss: Drop a redundant conditional
Bailing out when PK11_FindGenericObjects() returns null ensures the
loop that follows it executes at least once. The "loop did not
execute" test right after it is useless. Drop it.
libcacard/vreader: Drop broken recovery from failed assertion
We suppress some code when we got unexpected status and assertion
checking is off:
assert(card_status == VCARD_DONE);
if (card_status == VCARD_DONE) {
int size = MIN(*receive_buf_len, response->b_total_len);
memcpy(receive_buf, response->b_data, size);
*receive_buf_len = size;
}
Such "recovery" is of dubious value even when it works. This one
doesn't: it fails to assign to receive_buf[] and *receive_buf_len,
which the callers expect.
The 'name' option silently failed when used in config files
( http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2014-04/msg00378.html )
-readconfig stores the configuration read in QemuOpts. Command line
option parsing should do the same, and no more. In particular it should
not act upon the option. That needs to be done separately, where both
command line and -readconfig settings are visible in QemuOpts.

configure: Put tempfiles in a subdir of the build directory
When libtool support was added to configure, the new temporary files
were left out of the list of files cleaned up on exit; this results
in a lot of stale .lo files being left around in /tmp. Worse, libtool
creates a /tmp/.libs directory which we can't easily clean up.
Put all our temporary files in a single temporary directory created
as a subdirectory of the build directory, so we can easily clean it up,
and don't need fragile or complicated code for creation to avoid it
clashing with temporary directories from other instances of QEMU
configure or being subject to attack from adversaries who can write
to /tmp.
Since the temporaries now live in the build tree, we have no
need to jump through hoops with a trap handler to try to remove
them when configure exits; this fixes some weird bugs where hitting
^C during a configure run wouldn't actually make it stop, because
we would run the trap handler but then not stop. (It is possible
to get the trap handler semantics right but it is convoluted largely
because of bugs in dash, so it is simpler to just avoid it.)
Note that "temporary files go in the build directory, not /tmp" is
the way autoconf behaves.

Some opens fail without setting an error. qmp_chardev_add() needs to

Using error_is_set(ERRP) to find out whether a function failed is
either wrong, fragile, or unnecessarily opaque. It's wrong when ERRP
may be null, because errors go undetected when it is. It's fragile
when proving ERRP non-null involves a non-local argument. Else, it's
unnecessarily opaque (see commit 84d18f0).
The error_is_set(errp) in qemu_chr_new_from_opts() is merely fragile,
because the callers never pass a null errp argument.

error in a local variable, then propagate it through the parameter.

s390x/kvm: hw debugging support via guest PER facility
This patch makes use of the hw debugging support in kvm (provided by the guest's
PER facility) on s390. It enables the following features, available using the
gdbserver:
- single-stepping
- hw breakpoints
- hw watchpoints
This patch allows to insert and remove sw breakpoints using the QEMU gdbserver
on s390 as well as to interrupt execution on a breakpoint hit when running
with KVM enabled.
Whenever a software breakpoint is inserted, common code calls kvm ioctl
KVM_UPDATE_GUEST_DEBUG. As this method's default on s390 is to return an error
if not implement, the insertion will fail. Therefore, KVM also has to be
updated in order to make use of software breakpoints.
When restoring the previously saved instruction in
kvm_arch_remove_sw_breakpoint(), we only restored one byte. Let's use
the sizeof() operator to make sure we restore the entire instruction.
While we are at it, let's remove the duplicate definitions of DIAG 501
and replace its size (used when reading/writing the instruction) with
a sizeof() operator to make the code self explaining and less error-prone.
Make use of the new s390 adapter irq routing support to enable real
in-kernel irqfds for virtio-ccw with adapter interrupts.
Note that s390 doesn't provide the common KVM_CAP_IRQCHIP capability, but
rather needs KVM_CAP_S390_IRQCHIP to be enabled. This is to ensure backward
compatibility.
Introduce a common parent class for both cases, where kvm and non-kvm
can hook up callbacks. This will be used by follow-on patches for
adapter registration and mapping.
We now always have a flic, regardless of whether we use kvm; the
non-kvm implementation just doesn't do anything.

ps2: set ps/2 output buffer size as the same as kernel
According to the PS/2 Mouse/Keyboard Protocol, the keyboard outupt buffer size
is 16 bytes. And the PS2_QUEUE_SIZE 256 was introduced in Qemu from the very
beginning.
When I started a redhat5.6 32bit guest, meanwhile tapped the keyboard as quickly as
possible, the screen would show me "i8042.c: No controller found". As a result,
I couldn't use the keyboard in the VNC client.
Previous discussion about the issue in maillist:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/43294/focus=47180
This patch has been tested on redhat5.6 32-bit/suse11sp3 64-bit guests.
More easy meathod to reproduce:
1.boot a guest with libvirt.
2.connect to VNC client.
3.as you see the BIOS, bootloader, Linux booting, run the follow simply shell script:
for((i=0;i<10000000;i++)) do virsh send-key redhat5.6 KEY_A; done
Actual results:
dmesg show "i8042.c: No controller found." And the keyboard is out of work.
Every error source is checked separately. The second function is only
called when the first one succeeds. Both functions are free to pass
their argument to error_set(). Because error_set() asserts no error
has been set, this effectively means they must not be called with an
error set.
The qapi-generated code uses the error API differently:
// *errp was initialized to NULL somewhere up the call chain
frob(..., errp);
gnat(..., errp);
Errors accumulate in *errp: first error wins, subsequent errors get
dropped. To make this work, the second function does nothing when
called with an error set. Requires non-null errp, or else the second
function can't see the first one fail.
This usage has also bled into visitor tests, and two device model
object property getters rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_get_all().
With the "accumulate" technique, you need fewer error checks in
callers, and buy that with an error check in every callee. Can be
nice.
However, mixing the two techniques is confusing. You can't use the
"accumulate" technique with functions designed for the "check
separately" technique. You can use the "check separately" technique
with functions designed for the "accumulate" technique, but then
error_set() can't catch you setting an error more than once.
Standardize on the "check separately" technique for now, because it's
overwhelmingly prevalent.
tests: Don't call visit_end_struct() after visit_start_struct() fails
When visit_start_struct() fails, visit_end_struct() must not be
called. Three out of four visit_type_TestStruct() call it anyway. As
far as I can tell, visit_start_struct() doesn't actually fail there.
Fix them anyway.
hw: Don't call visit_end_struct() after visit_start_struct() fails
When visit_start_struct() fails, visit_end_struct() must not be
called. rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_all() call it anyway. As
far as I can tell, they're only used with the string output visitor,
which doesn't care. Fix them anyway.
hmp: Call visit_end_struct() after visit_start_struct() succeeds
When visit_start_struct() succeeds, visit_end_struct() must be called.
hmp_object_add() doesn't when a member visit fails. As far as I can
tell, the opts visitor copes okay with the misuse. Fix it anyway.
qapi-visit.py: Clean up a sloppy use of field prefix
generate_visit_struct_fields() generates the base type's struct member
name both with and without the field prefix. Harmless, because the
field prefix is always empty there: only unboxed complex members have
a prefix, and those can't have a base type.
qapi: Replace start_optional()/end_optional() by optional()
Semantics of end_optional() differ subtly from the other end_FOO()
callbacks: when start_FOO() succeeds, the matching end_FOO() gets
called regardless of what happens in between. end_optional() gets
called only when everything in between succeeds as well. Entirely
undocumented, like all of the visitor API.
The only user of Visitor Callback end_optional() never did anything,
and was removed in commit 9f9ab46.
I'm about to clean up error handling in the generated visitor code,
and end_optional() is in my way. No users mean no test cases, and
making non-trivial cleanup transformations without test cases doesn't
strike me as a good idea.
Drop end_optional(), and rename start_optional() to optional(). We
can always go back to a pair of callbacks when we have an actual need.
qapi: Normalize marshalling's visitor initialization and cleanup
Input and output marshalling functions do it differently. Change them
to work the same: initialize the I/O visitor, use it, clean it up,
initialize the dealloc visitor, use it, clean it up.
This delays dealloc visitor initialization in output marshalling
functions, and input visitor cleanup in input marshalling functions.
No functional change, but the latter will be convenient when I change
the error handling.
