  • Add host_device support to qemu-img. (Nolan Leake) ...
    93c65b47 
    This patch allows the use a host_device as the destination for "qemu-img
convert".

I added a ->bdrv_create function host_device.  It merely verifies that
the device exists and is large enough.

A check is needed in the qemu-img convert loop to ensure that we write
out all 0 sectors to the host_device.  Otherwise they end up with stale
garbage where all zero sectors were expected.

I also made the check against bdrv_is_allocated enabled for everything
_except_ host devices, since there is no point in making the block
backend write a bunch of zeros just so that we can memcmp them
immediately afterwards.  Host devices can't benefit from this because
there is no way to differentiate between a sector being unallocated
because it was never written, or because it was written with all zeros
and then made a trip through qemu-img convert.

Finally, there is an unrelated fix for a typo in the error message
printed if the destination device does not support ->bdrv_create.

  • Add noreturn function attribute ...
    7d99a001 
    Introduce noreturn attribute and attach it to cpu_loop_exit as well as
interrupt/exception helpers for i386. This avoids a bunch of gcc4
warnings.

[ Note that this patch comes with a workaround to include qemu-common.h
even in cases where is currently causes conflicts with dyngen-exec.h.
I've been told that these conflicts will get resolved in the future
(/me will try to have a look as well - as time permits). ]
