2010-09-10vmware_vga: Add checks to deal with non-atomic fifo writes.Andrzej Zaborowski1-8/+56
Janne Huttunen noticed that the FIFO end pointer is updated by the guest after writing each word to the FIFO, at least the X.org driver which is open does this. This means that there's no way for the host to know if the guest is in the middle a write operation. Qemu thus needs to read the beginning of the command up to when it's able to tell how many words are expected for the given command. It will abort reading and rewind the FIFO if there aren't enough words yet, this should be relatively rare but it is suspected to have been the cause of the occasional FIFO overrun that killed the display.
2010-09-10hw/omap: Fix default setup for OMAP UART devicesStefan Weil4-8/+19
Character devices created by qemu_chr_open don't allow duplicate device names, so naming all UART devices "null" no longer works. Running "qemu-system-arm -M n800" (and some other machines) results in this error message: qemu-system-arm: Duplicate ID 'null' for chardev Can't create serial device, empty char device This is fixed by setting a default label "uart1", "uart2" or "uart3".

This patch adds an optional command line switch '-trace' to specify the filename to write traces to, when qemu starts.

2010-09-09trace: Add trace-file command to open/close/flush trace fileStefan Hajnoczi4-13/+88
This patch adds the trace-file command: trace-file [on|off|flush] Open, close, or flush the trace file. If no argument is given, the status of the trace file is displayed. The trace file is turned on by default but is only written out when the trace buffer becomes full. The flush operation can be used to force write out at any time. Turning off the trace file does not change the state of trace events; tracing will continue to the trace buffer. When the trace file is off, use "info trace" to display the contents of the trace buffer in memory. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> This commit also contains the trace-file sub-command from the following commit: commit 5ce8d1a957afae2c52ad748944ce72848ccf57bd Author: Prerna Saxena <prerna@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Date: Wed Aug 4 16:23:54 2010 +0530 trace: Add options to specify trace file name at startup and runtime This patch adds an optional command line switch '-trace' to specify the filename to write traces to, when qemu starts.

2010-09-09trace: Specify trace file namePrerna Saxena2-4/+29
Allow users to specify a file for trace-outputs at configuration. Also, allow trace files to be annotated by <pid> so each qemu instance has unique traces. The trace file name can be passed as a config option: --trace-file=/path/to/file (Default: trace ) At runtime, the pid of the qemu process is appended to the filename so that mutiple qemu instances do not have overlapping logs. Eg : trace-1234 for qemu launched with pid 1234. I have yet to test this on windows. getpid() is used at many places in code(including vnc.c), so I'm hoping this would be okay too.

2010-09-09trace: Support disabled events in trace-eventsStefan Hajnoczi2-6/+45
Sometimes it is useful to disable a trace event. Removing the event from trace-events is not enough since source code will call the trace_*() function for the event. This patch makes it easy to build without specific trace events by marking them disabled in trace-events: disable multiwrite_cb(void *mcb, int ret) "mcb %p ret %d" This builds without the multiwrite_cb trace event. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com> trace: Allow bulk enabling/disabling of trace events at compile time For 'simple' trace backend, allow bulk enabling/disabling of trace events at compile time. Trace events that are preceded by 'disable' keyword are compiled in, but turned off by default. These can individually be turned on using the monitor. All other trace events are enabled by default. TODO : This could be enhanced when the trace-event namespace is partitioned into a group and an ID within that group. In such a case, marking a group as enabled would automatically enable all trace-events listed under it.

2010-09-09trace: Support for dynamically enabling/disabling trace eventsPrerna Saxena6-4/+149
This patch adds support for dynamically enabling/disabling of trace events. This is done by internally maintaining each trace event's state, and permitting logging of data from a trace event only if it is in an 'active' state. Monitor commands added : 1) info trace-events : to view all available trace events and their state. 2) trace-event NAME on|off : to enable/disable data logging from a given trace event. Eg, trace-event paio_submit off disables logging of data when paio_submit is hit. By default, all trace-events are disabled. One can enable desired trace-events via the monitor.

2010-09-09trace: Add trace-events file for declaring trace eventsStefan Hajnoczi7-4/+238
This patch introduces the trace-events file where trace events can be declared like so: qemu_malloc(size_t size) "size %zu" qemu_free(void *ptr) "ptr %p" These trace event declarations are processed by a new tool called tracetool to generate code for the trace events. Trace event declarations are independent of the backend tracing system (LTTng User Space Tracing, ftrace markers, DTrace). The default "nop" backend generates empty trace event functions. Therefore trace events are disabled by default. The trace-events file serves two purposes: 1. Adding trace events is easy. It is not necessary to understand the details of a backend tracing system. The trace-events file is a single location where trace events can be declared without code duplication. 2. QEMU is not tightly coupled to one particular backend tracing system. In order to support tracing across QEMU host platforms and to anticipate new backend tracing systems that are currently maturing, it is important to be flexible and not tied to one system.

2010-09-08virtio-9p: Change handling of flags in open() path for 9P2000.LSripathi Kodi1-13/+1
This patch applies on top of 9P2000.L patches that we have on the list. I took a look at how 9P server is handling open() flags in 9P2000.L path. I think we can do away with the valid_flags() function and simplify the code. The reasoning is as follows: O_NOCTTY: (If the file is a terminal, don't make it the controlling terminal of the process even though the process does not have a controlling terminal) By the time the control reaches 9P client it is clear that what we have is not a terminal device. Hence it does not matter what we do with this flag. In any case 9P server can filter this flag out before making the syscall. O_NONBLOCK: (Don't block if i) Can't read/write to the file ii) Can't get locks) This has an impact on FIFOs, but also on file locks. Hence we can pass it down to the system call. O_ASYNC: From the manpage: O_ASYNC Enable signal-driven I/O: generate a signal (SIGIO by default, but this can be changed via fcntl(2)) when input or output becomes pos- sible on this file descriptor. This feature is only available for terminals, pseudo-terminals, sockets, and (since Linux 2.6) pipes and FIFOs. See fcntl(2) for further details. Again, this does not make any impact on regular files handled by 9P. Also, we don't want 9P server to receive SIGIO. Hence I think 9P server can filter this flag out before making the syscall. O_CLOEXEC: This flag makes sense only on the client. If guest user space sets this flag the guest VFS will take care of calling close() on the fd if an exec() happens. Hence 9P client need not be bothered with this flag. Also I think QEMU will not do an exec, but if it does, it makes sense to close these fds. Hence we can pass this flag down to the syscall. O_CREAT: Since we are in open() path it means we have confirmed that the file exists. Hence there is no need to pass O_CREAT flag down to the system. In fact on some versions of glibc this causes problems, because we pass O_CREAT flag, but don't have permission bits. Hence we can just mask this flag out. So in summary: Mask out: O_NOCTTY O_ASYNC O_CREAT Pass-through: O_NONBLOCK O_CLOEXEC Signed-off-by: Sripathi Kodi <sripathik@in.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Venkateswararao Jujjuri <jvrao@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

By default (no flags), the extended attribute will be created if need be, or will simply replace the value if the attribute exists." The actual setxattr operation happens when the fid is clunked.

The mode argument specifies the permissions to use. New file is created with the uid if the fid and with supplied gid. The flags argument represent Linux access mode flags with which the caller is requesting to open the file with. Protocol allows all the Linux access modes but it is upto the server to allow/disallow any of these acess modes. If the server doesn't support any of the access mode, it is expected to return error. To start with we will not restricit/limit any Linux flags on this server. If needed, We can start restricting as we move forward with various use cases.
