Nathan Froyd f1cb0951c5 MIPS: Correct FCR0 initialization
This change addresses a problem where QEMU incorrectly traps on
floating-point MADD group instructions with SIGILL, at least while
emulating MIPS32r2 processors.  These instructions use the COP1X major
opcode and include ones like:

	madd.d	$f2,$f4,$f2,$f6

 Here's Nathan's original analysis of the problem:

"QEMU essentially does:

  d = find_cpu (cpu_string)	// get CPU definition
  fpu_init (env, d)		// initialize fpu state (init FCR0, basically)
  cpu_reset (env)

...and the cpu_reset call clears all interesting state that fpu_init
setup, then proceeds to reinitialize all the CP0 registers...but not
FCR0."

 I have verified this change with system emulation running the GDB test
suite for the mips-sde-elf target (o32, big endian, 24Kf CPU emulated),
there were 55 progressions and no regressions.

Paolo Bonzini 46e3f30e3c scsi-disk: more assertions and resets for aiocb
Leaving the aiocb to a non-NULL value leads to an assertion failure when
rerror/werror are set to stop or enospc, and the operation is retried.
scsi-disk checks that the aiocb member is NULL before filling it.

This patch correctly resets the aiocb to NULL values everywhere,
and adds the dual assertion that the aiocb was non-NULL before
calling bdrv_acct_done.

Peter Maydell cc7e0ddf5a kvm: Decouple 'irqfds usable' from 'kernel irqchip'
Instead of assuming that we can use irqfds if and only if
kvm_irqchip_in_kernel(), add a bool to the KVMState which
indicates this, and is set only on x86 and only if the
irqchip is in the kernel.

The kernel documentation implies that the only thing
you need to use KVM_IRQFD is that KVM_CAP_IRQFD is
advertised, but this seems to be untrue. In particular
the kernel does not (alas) return a sensible error if you
try to set up an irqfd when you haven't created an irqchip.
If it did we could remove all this nonsense and let the
kernel return the error code.

isn't necessarily true (they may always send interrupts

Paolo Bonzini 4dd7c82cdb virtio-scsi: do not compare 32-bit QEMU tags against 64-bit virtio-scsi tags
This patch fixes a problem in handling task management functions
in virtio-scsi.  The cause of the problem is a mismatch between
the size of the tag in QEMU (32-bit) and virtio-scsi (64-bit).
Changing the QEMU size is hard because the migration format
uses 32 bits to store the tag; so just don't use the QEMU tag
(virtio-scsi only uses the tag for task management functions
anyway) and look up the full 64-bit tag in the hba_private field.

The reproducer is a bit obscure.  If you cause an I/O timeout
(for example with rerror=stop and doing 'cont' on the monitor
continuously without fixing the error), sooner or later the
guest will try to abort the command and reissue it.  At this
point, QEMU will report _two_ errors instead of one when you
hit 'c', because the first error has not been canceled correctly.

Ronnie Sahlberg 31459f463a iscsi: Pick default initiator-name based on the name of the VM
This patch updates the iscsi layer to automatically pick a 'unique'
initiator-name based on the name of the vm in case the user has not set
an explicit iqn-name to use.

Create a new function qemu_get_vm_name() that returns the name of the VM,
if specified.

This way we can thus create default names to use as the initiator name
based on the guest session.

If the VM is not named via the '-name' command line argument, the iscsi
initiator-name used wiull simply be

    iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm

If a name for the VM was specified with the '-name' option, iscsi will
use a default initiatorname of

    iqn.2008-11.org.linux-kvm:<name>

These names are just the default iscsi initiator name that qemu will
generate/use only when the user has not set an explicit initiator name
via the commandlines or config files.

Stefan Hajnoczi e01c30d3e2 qemu-io: add "abort" command to simulate program crash
Avoiding data loss and corruption is the top requirement for image file
formats.  The qemu-io "abort" command makes it possible to simulate
program crashes and does not give the image format a chance to cleanly
shut down.  This command is useful for data integrity test cases.

Stefan Hajnoczi bfe8043e92 qcow2: implement lazy refcounts
Lazy refcounts is a performance optimization for qcow2 that postpones
refcount metadata updates and instead marks the image dirty.  In the
case of crash or power failure the image will be left in a dirty state
and repaired next time it is opened.

Reducing metadata I/O is important for cache=writethrough and
cache=directsync because these modes guarantee that data is on disk
after each write (hence we cannot take advantage of caching updates in
RAM).  Refcount metadata is not needed for guest->file block address
translation and therefore does not need to be on-disk at the time of
write completion - this is the motivation behind the lazy refcount
optimization.

The lazy refcount optimization must be enabled at image creation time:

  qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o compat=1.1,lazy_refcounts=on a.qcow2 10G
  qemu-system-x86_64 -drive if=virtio,file=a.qcow2,cache=writethrough

Update qemu-iotests 031 and 036 since the extension header size changes
when we add feature bit table entries.
