2010-05-03virtio-9p: Create a syntactic shortcut for the file-system pass-thruGautham R Shenoy1-0/+1
Currently the commandline to create a virtual-filesystem pass-through between the guest and the host is as follows: #qemu -fsdev fstype,id=ID,path=path/to/share \ -device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=ID,mount_tag=tag \ This patch provides a syntactic short-cut to achieve the same as follows: #qemu -virtfs fstype,path=path/to/share,mount_tag=tag This will be internally expanded as: #qemu -fsdev fstype,id=tag,path=path/to/share, \ -device virtio-9p-pci,fsdev=tag,mount_tag=tag \ Signed-off-by: Gautham R Shenoy <ego@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Aneesh Kumar K.V <aneesh.kumar@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2010-05-03virtio-9p: Create a commandline option -fsdevGautham R Shenoy1-0/+3
This patch creates a new command line option named -fsdev to hold any file system specific information. The option will currently hold the following attributes: -fsdev fstype id=id,path=path_to_share where fstype: Type of the file system. id: Identifier used to refer to this fsdev path: The path on the host that is identified by this fsdev.

2010-04-23qemu-config: Make qemu_config_parse more genericKevin Wolf1-1/+1
qemu_config_parse gets the option groups as a parameter now instead of hardcoding the VM configuration groups. This way it can be used for other configurations, too. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2010-04-23qemu-config: qemu_read_config_file() reads the normal config fileKevin Wolf1-0/+2
Introduce a new function qemu_read_config_file which reads the VM configuration from a config file. Unlike qemu_config_parse it doesn't take a open file but a filename and reduces code duplication as a side effect. Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2010-03-16qemu-option: Rename find_list() to qemu_find_opts() & external linkageMarkus Armbruster1-0/+1
Next commit wants to use it.
2010-03-16error: Track locations in configuration filesMarkus Armbruster1-1/+1
New LOC_FILE. Use it for tracking file name and line number in qemu_config_parse(). We now report errors like qemu:foo.conf:42: Did not find I2C bus for smbus-eeprom In particular, gems like this message: -device: no driver specified become almost nice now: qemu:foo.conf:44: -device: no driver specified (A later commit will get rid of the bogus -device:)
2010-02-22Add cpu model configuration support..john cooper1-0/+1
This is a reimplementation of prior versions which adds the ability to define cpu models for contemporary processors. The added models are likewise selected via -cpu <name>, and are intended to displace the existing convention of "-cpu qemu64" augmented with a series of feature flags. A primary motivation was determination of a least common denominator within a given processor class to simplify guest migration. It is still possible to modify an arbitrary model via additional feature flags however the goal here was to make doing so unnecessary in typical usage. The other consideration was providing models names reflective of current processors. Both AMD and Intel have reviewed the models in terms of balancing generality of migration vs. excessive feature downgrade relative to released silicon. This version of the patch replaces the prior hard wired definitions with a configuration file approach for new models. Existing models are thus far left as-is but may easily be transitioned to (or may be overridden by) the configuration file representation. Proposed new model definitions are provided here for current AMD and Intel processors. Each model consists of a name used to select it on the command line (-cpu <name>), and a model_id which corresponds to a least common denominator commercial instance of the processor class. A table of names/model_ids may be queried via "-cpu ?model": : x86 Opteron_G3 AMD Opteron 23xx (Gen 3 Class Opteron) x86 Opteron_G2 AMD Opteron 22xx (Gen 2 Class Opteron) x86 Opteron_G1 AMD Opteron 240 (Gen 1 Class Opteron) x86 Nehalem Intel Core i7 9xx (Nehalem Class Core i7) x86 Penryn Intel Core 2 Duo P9xxx (Penryn Class Core 2) x86 Conroe Intel Celeron_4x0 (Conroe/Merom Class Core 2) : Also added is "-cpu ?dump" which exhaustively outputs all config data for all defined models, and "-cpu ?cpuid" which enumerates all qemu recognized CPUID feature flags. The pseudo cpuid flag 'check' when added to the feature flag list will warn when feature flags (either implicit in a cpu model or explicit on the command line) would have otherwise been quietly unavailable to a guest: # qemu-system-x86_64 ... -cpu Nehalem,check warning: host cpuid 0000_0001 lacks requested flag 'sse4.2|sse4_2' [0x00100000] warning: host cpuid 0000_0001 lacks requested flag 'popcnt' [0x00800000] A similar 'enforce' pseudo flag exists which in addition to the above causes qemu to error exit if requested flags are unavailable. Configuration data for a cpu model resides in the target config file which by default will be installed as: /usr/local/etc/qemu/target-<arch>.conf The format of this file should be self explanatory given the definitions for the above six models and essentially mimics the structure of the static x86_def_t x86_defs. Encoding of cpuid flags names now allows aliases for both the configuration file and the command line which reconciles some Intel/AMD/Linux/Qemu naming differences.

2009-12-18defaults: update device_list[]Gerd Hoffmann1-0/+1
Add isa-fdc (disables default_floppy). Add ide-drive (disables default_cdrom). Also walk the -global QemuOpts, so we'll catch -global isa-fdc.drive{A,B}=<name> too. Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-12-12rework -monitor handling, switch to QemuOptsGerd Hoffmann1-0/+1
This patch reworks the -monitor handling: - It adds a new "mon" QemuOpts list for the monitor(s). - It adds a monitor_parse() function to parse the -monitor switch. - It adds a mon_init function to initialize the monitor(s) from the "mon" QemuOpts list. - It winds up everything and removes the old bits.

2009-12-12qdev: add command line option to set global defaults for properties.Gerd Hoffmann1-0/+2
This patch adds infrastructure and command line option for setting global defaults for device properties, i.e. you can for example use -global virtio-blk-pci.vectors=0 to turn off msi by default for all virtio block devices. The config file syntax is: [global] driver = "virtio-blk-pci" property = "vectors" value = "0" This can also be used to set properties for devices which are not created via -device but implicitly via machine init, i.e. -global isa-fdc,driveA=<name> This patch uses the mechanism which configures properties for the compatibility machine types (pc-0.10 & friends). The command line takes precedence over the machine type values. Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-09-11switch chardev to QemuOpts: infrastructure, null deviceGerd Hoffmann1-0/+1
start switching chardevs to QemuOpts. This patch adds the infrastructure and converts the null device. The patch brings two new functions: qemu_chr_open_opts() same as qemu_chr_open(), but uses QemuOpts instead of a option char string. qemu_chr_parse_compat() accepts a traditional chardev option string, returns the corresponding QemuOpts instance, to handle backward compatibility. The patch also adds a new -chardev switch which can be used to create named+unconnected chardevs, like this: -chardev null,id=test This uses the new qemu_chr_open_opts. Thus with this patch alone only the null device works. The other devices will follow ... Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

One use case will be file for drives (no filename quoting issues), i.e. -drive id=test,if=virtio -set drive.test.file=/vmdisk/test-virtio.img It will work for any other option (assuming handled by QemuOpts) though.
