2013-12-20roms: Flush icache when writing roms to guest memoryAlexander Graf1-0/+7
We use the rom infrastructure to write firmware and/or initial kernel blobs into guest address space. So we're basically emulating the cache off phase on very early system bootup. That phase is usually responsible for clearing the instruction cache for anything it writes into cachable memory, to ensure that after reboot we don't happen to execute stale bits from the instruction cache. So we need to invalidate the icache every time we write a rom into guest address space. We do not need to do this for every DMA since the guest expects it has to flush the icache manually in that case. This fixes random reboot issues on e5500 (booke ppc) for me.

2013-10-14loader: support for unmapped ROM blobsMichael S. Tsirkin1-3/+20
Support ROM blobs not mapped into guest memory: same as ROM files really but use caller's buffer. Support invoking callback on access and return memory pointer making it easier for caller to update memory if necessary.

2013-08-21loader: store FW CFG ROM files in RAMMichael S. Tsirkin1-3/+46
ROM files that are put in FW CFG are copied to guest ram, by BIOS, but they are not backed by RAM so they don't get migrated. Each time we change two bytes in such a ROM this breaks cross-version migration: since we can migrate after BIOS has read the first byte but before it has read the second one, getting an inconsistent state. Future-proof this by creating, for each such ROM, an MR serving as the backing store. This MR is never mapped into guest memory, but it's registered as RAM so it's migrated with the guest. Naturally, this only helps for -M 1.7 and up, older machine types will still have the cross-version migration bug. Luckily the race window for the problem to trigger is very small, which is also likely why we didn't notice the cross-version migration bug in testing yet. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2013-08-07Bugfix for loading multiboot kernelsMartijn van den Broek1-4/+3
This patch fixes a bug in rom_copy introduced by commit d60fa42e8bae39440f997ebfe8fe328269a57d16. rom_copy failed to load roms with a "datasize" of 0. As a result, multiboot kernels were not loaded correctly when they contain a segment with a "file size" of 0. https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/1208944 Signed-off-by: Martijn van den Broek <martijn.vdbrk@gmail.com> Reviewed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Message-id: CAG1x_oET1u3TMPu3r_zzd3ZXsTWQLiaM0zAc+RkHFCwvJjGOvg@mail.gmail.com Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2013-07-22hw/loader: Support ramdisk with u-boot headerSoren Brinkmann1-25/+59
Introduce 'load_ramdisk()' which can load "normal" ramdisks and ramdisks with a u-boot header. To enable this and leverage synergies 'load_uimage()' is refactored to accomodate this additional use case.

2013-07-04memory: add ref/unref callsPaolo Bonzini1-0/+1
Add ref/unref calls at the following places: - places where memory regions are stashed by a listener and used outside the BQL (including in Xen or KVM). - memory_region_find callsites - creation of aliases and containers (only the aliased/contained region gets a reference to avoid loops) - around calls to del_subregion/add_subregion, where the region could disappear after the first call Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2013-06-20memory: make section size a 128-bit integerPaolo Bonzini1-1/+1
So far, the size of all regions passed to listeners could fit in 64 bits, because artificial regions (containers and aliases) are eliminated by the memory core, leaving only device regions which have reasonable sizes An IOMMU however cannot be eliminated by the memory core, and may have an artificial size, hence we may need 65 bits to represent its size.
