Starting a guest with
<os>
<type arch='s390x' machine='s390-ccw-virtio-2.9'>hvm</type>
</os>
<cpu mode='host-model'/>
on an IBM z14 results in
"qemu-system-s390x: Some features requested in the CPU model are not
available in the configuration: gs"
This is because guarded storage is fenced for compat machines that did
not have guarded storage support. While this prevents future migration
abort (by not starting the guest at all), not being able to start a
"host-model" guest is very much unexpected. As it turns out, even if we
would modify libvirt to not expand the cpu model to contain "gs" for
compat machines, it cannot guarantee that a migration will succeed. For
example if the kernel changes its features (or the user has nested=1 on
one host but not on the other) the migration will fail nevertheless. So
instead of fencing "gs" for machines <= 2.9 lets allow it for all
machine types that support the CPU model. This will make "host-model"
runnable all the time, while relying on the CPU model to reject invalid
migration attempts. We also need to change the migration for guarded
storage.
Additional discussions about host-model are still pending but are out
of scope of this patch.

Implemented in s390-virtio-ccw.c, so move it to the right header.
We can also drop the extern. Fix up one include.

Introduce guarded storage support for KVM guests on s390.
We need to enable the capability, extend machine check validity,
sigp store-additional-status-at-address, and migration.
The feature is fenced for older machine type versions.

Currently the migration of the channel subsystem (css) is only partial
and is done by the virtio ccw proxies -- the only migratable css devices
existing at the moment.
With the current work on emulated and passthrough devices we need to
decouple the migration of the channel subsystem state from virtio ccw,
and have a separate section for it. A new section however necessarily
breaks the migration compatibility.
So let us introduce a switch at the machine class, and put it in 'off'
state for now. We will turn the switch 'on' for future machines once all
preparations are met. For compatibility machines the switch will stay
'off'.

We want to support real (i.e. not virtual) channel devices
even for guests that do not support MCSS-E (where guests may
see devices from any channel subsystem image at once). As all
virtio-ccw devices are in css 0xfe (and show up in the default
css 0 for guests not activating MCSS-E), we need an option to
squash both the virtio subchannels and e.g. passed-through
subchannels from their real css (0-3, or 0 for hosts not
activating MCSS-E) into the default css. This will be
exploited in a later patch.

In order to specify the LOADPARM value one may now add ",loadparm=xxx"
parameter to the "-machine s390-ccw-virtio" option.
The property setter will normalize and check the value provided much
like the way the HMC does.
The value is stored, but not used at the moment.
Initial patch from Eugene (jno) Dvurechenski.

cpu model was merged with 2.8, it is wrong to abuse ri_allowed which
was enabled with 2.7.

Introduce run-time-instrumentation support when running under kvm for
virtio-ccw 2.7 machine and make sure older machines can not enable it.
The new ri_allowed field in the s390MachineClass serves as an indicator
whether the feature can be used by the machine and should therefore be
activated if available.
riccb_needed() is used to check whether riccb is needed or not in live
migration.

As we now have the new machine definitions, that let us disable/enable
machine options more easily, we need a way to save them and make them
publicly available.
The new s390-virtio-ccw.h header exports the s390 ccw machine state
and class, so they can be easily used in other C files.
