2017-09-21virtio-serial: add enable_backend callbackPavel Butsykin
We should guarantee that RAM will not be modified while VM has a stopped state, otherwise it can lead to negative consequences during post-copy migration. In RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE step, it's expected that RAM on source side will not be modified as this could lead to non-consistent vm state on the destination side. Also RAM access during postcopy-ram migration with enabled release-ram capability can lead to sad consequences. Let's add enable_backend() callback to avoid undesirable virtioqueue changes in the guest memory.

2016-10-10virtio-serial: enable virtio console emergency write featureSascha Silbe
Add support for enabling the virtio 1.0 "emergency write" (VIRTIO_CONSOLE_F_EMERG_WRITE) feature. The previous patch introduced the plumbing required for this; now we expose the virtio feature to the guest. The feature is disabled for compatibility machines to avoid exposing a new feature to existing guests. As required by the virtio 1.0 spec, the emergency write functionality is available to the guest even if the guest doesn't negotatiate the feature, as well as before feature negotation.

2016-02-06virtio: move allocation to virtqueue_pop/vring_popPaolo Bonzini
The return code of virtqueue_pop/vring_pop is unused except to check for errors or 0. We can thus easily move allocation inside the functions and just return a pointer to the VirtQueueElement. The advantage is that we will be able to allocate only the space that is needed for the actual size of the s/g list instead of the full VIRTQUEUE_MAX_SIZE items. Currently VirtQueueElement takes about 48K of memory, and this kind of allocation puts a lot of stress on malloc. By cutting the size by two or three orders of magnitude, malloc can use much more efficient algorithms. The patch is pretty large, but changes to each device are testable more or less independently. Splitting it would mostly add churn. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2015-03-19virtio: serial: expose a 'guest_writable' callback for usersAmit Shah
Users of virtio-serial may want to know when a port becomes writable. A port can stop accepting writes if the guest port is open but not being read from. In this case, data gets queued up in the virtqueue, and after the vq is full, writes to the port do not succeed. When the guest reads off a vq element, and adds a new one for the host to put data in, we can tell users the port is available for more writes, via the new ->guest_writable() callback.

2015-01-05virtio-serial: Don't keep a persistent copy of config spaceDavid Gibson
The 'config' field in the VirtIOSerial structure keeps a copy of the virtio console's config space as visible to the guest, that is to say, in guest endianness. This is fiddly to maintain, because on some targets, such as powerpc, the "guest endianness" can change when a new guest OS boots. In fact, there's no need to maintain such a guest view of config space - instead we can reconstruct it from host-format data when it is accessed with get_config.

2014-08-18virtio-serial: create a linked list of all active devicesAmit Shah
To ensure two virtserialports don't get added to the system with the same 'name' parameter, we need to access all the ports on all the devices added, and compare the names. We currently don't have a list of all VirtIOSerial devices added to the system. This commit adds a simple linked list in which devices are put when they're initialized, and removed when they go away.

Many of these should be cleaned up with proper qdev-/QOM-ification. Right now there are many catch-all headers in include/hw/ARCH depending on cpu.h, and this makes it necessary to compile these files per-target. However, fixing this does not belong in these patches.
