  • qdev: rework device properties. ...
    ee6847d1 
    This patch is a major overhaul of the device properties.  The properties
are saved directly in the device state struct now, the linked list of
property values is gone.

Advantages:
  * We don't have to maintain the list with the property values.
  * The value in the property list and the value actually used by
    the device can't go out of sync any more (used to happen for
    the pci.devfn == -1 case) because there is only one place where
    the value is stored.
  * A record describing the property is required now, you can't set
    random properties any more.

There are bus-specific and device-specific properties.  The former
should be used for properties common to all bus drivers.  Typical
use case is bus addressing, i.e. pci.devfn and i2c.address.

Properties have a PropertyInfo struct attached with name, size and
function pointers to parse and print properties.  A few common property
types have PropertyInfos defined in qdev-properties.c.  Drivers are free
to implement their own very special property parsers if needed.

Properties can have default values.  If unset they are zero-filled.

  • Introduce reset notifier order ...
    8217606e 
    Add the parameter 'order' to qemu_register_reset and sort callbacks on
registration. On system reset, callbacks with lower order will be
invoked before those with higher order. Update all existing users to the
standard order 0.

Note: At least for x86, the existing users seem to assume that handlers
are called in their registration order. Therefore, the patch preserves
this property. If someone feels bored, (s)he could try to identify this
dependency and express it properly on callback registration.

  • Floppy: Properly handle Sense Interrupt Status after FDC Reset ...
    f2d81b33 
    Original text below.

Attached is a patch that changes how the emulated floppy controller replies to Sense Interrupt Status commands immediately after a controller reset. The specs state that after a Reset the 82078 goes into polling mode which needs four Sense Interrupt Status commands to be issued afterwards to clear the status of each drive. Currently we always respond to Sense Interrupt Status with a SEEK END instead of POLLING. This causes a problem with the SCO Openserver installer which is expects a POLLING state after reset. This patch returns a POLLING status for four Sense Interrupt Status requests immediately after a controller reset. This approach mirrors the way Bochs handles this situation. With the attached patch applied Openserver gets further when trying to load storage drivers from the floppy disk (blocked by another issue, patch on its way). I have successfully tested the floppy drive on the following OSs after applying this patch: Windows 98, Windows XP SP2, Linux x86 (SysRescCD 1.1.3 and Ubuntu 8.10).
