glibc implements posix-aio as a thread pool and imposes a number of limitations.

1) it limits one request per-file descriptor.  we hack around this by dup()'ing
file descriptors which is hideously ugly

2) it's impossible to add new interfaces and we need a vectored read/write
operation to properly support a zero-copy API.

What has been suggested to me by glibc folks, is to implement whatever new
interfaces we want and then it can eventually be proposed for standardization.
This requires that we implement our own posix-aio implementation though.

This patch implements posix-aio using pthreads.  It immediately eliminates the
need for fd pooling.

It performs at least as well as the current posix-aio code (in some
circumstances, even better).

This sets a default PCI subsystem ID for all emulated PCI devices.  PCI
specs require this, so do it.

In many cases it is enougth to know the PCI ID to handle a device
correctly.  Sometimes a device driver must identify the exact piece of
hardware (via PCI Subsystem ID) though.

What does this patch to qemu devices:

Right now the emulated PCI devices have no PCI subsystem ID, only the
PCI ID.  The discussed patch sets a default PCI subsystem ID for all
emulated devices.  Which will make the qemu devices look pretty much
like in the laptop case: all PCI subsystem IDs will point to qemu by
default.

If a driver emulates a very specific piece of hardware where it has to
emulate more than just the PCI chip, it can overwrite the PCI subsystem
ID without problems.  The es1370 driver does that for example.

When creating a snapshot with multiple qcow2 disks attached, the current
behaviour is that qemu creates a disk snapshot on all of them and
chooses one to write the VM state to.

Despite having the state only in one image, loadvm tries to restore the
VM state from the middle of nowhere if you run qemu a second time with
only one of the other images attached. In the lucky case it will fail
because there simply is no state, but it also can happen that it loads
the state of a different snapshot (the one this new one is based upon).

The fix is to write a zero VM state size to the images which don't
contain the state, and check this in loadvm.

I agree that you probably have to provoke such things intentionally to
get in a state like this with qemu itself. However, with my second patch
that adds snapshot support to qemu-img it could become a reasonable use
case to have snapshots with and without VM states on the same image.

fw_cfg_add_callback() checks if key has FW_CFG_WRITE_CHANNEL bit set
after masking the key with FW_CFG_ENTRY_MASK.

But as FW_CFG_ENTRY_MASK is ~(FW_CFG_WRITE_CHANNEL | FW_CFG_ARCH_LOCAL),
the bit is never set and function exits.

This patch corrects this by checking the bit before masking the value.

This patch adds SH bit handling to sh4's TLB, which is a part of MMU
functionality that had not been implemented in qemu.

Additionally, increment_urc() call in cpu_load_tlb() is deleted, because
the specification explicitly says that URC is not incremented by an LDTLB
instruction (at Section 3 of SH7751 Hardware manual(REJ09B0370-0400)).
Even though URC is not needed to be strictly same as HW because it is a
random number, this condition is not negligible.

This patch adds support for 64-bit Block Move instructions.  There are multiple
modes for 64-bit Block moves, direct, indirect, and table indirect.  This patch
implements Direct and Table indirect moves which are needed by 64-bit windows
and SYM_CONF_DMA_ADDRESSING_MODE=2 for the Linux sym53c8xx_2 driver respectively.

Two helper functions are included to check which mode the guest is using.  For
 64-bit direct moves, we fetch a 3rd DWORD and store the value in the DBMS
register.  For Table Indirect moves, we look into the table for which register
contains the upper 32-bits of the 64-bit address.  This selector value indicates
which register to pull the value from and into dnad64 register.

Finally, lsi_do_dma is updated to use the approriate register to build a 64-bit
DMA address if required.

With this patch, Windows XP x64, 2003 SP2 x64, can now install to scsi devices.
Linux SYM_CONF_DMA_ADDRESSING_MODE=2 need a quirk fixup in Patch 4 to function
properly.

Current implementation of memory-mapped i8042 controller is atm
implemented with an interface shift (it_shift) parameter, like most all
memory-mapped devices in Qemu.
However, this isn't suitable for MIPS Magnum, where i8042 controller is at
0x80005000 up to 0x80005fff.

Thomas Bogendoerfer (from #mipslinux) tested the behaviour of a real
machine, and found that odd addresses are for status/command register, and
even addresses for data register.

Attached patch implements this behaviour by replacing the it_shift
parameter by a mask one.
Incidentally, keyboard now works on OpenBSD 2.3, which accesses i8042
controller at 0x80005060 and 0x80005061.

MMIO exits are more expensive in KVM or Xen than in QEMU because they 
involve, at least, privilege transitions.  However, MMIO write 
operations can be effectively batched if those writes do not have side 
effects.

Good examples of this include VGA pixel operations when in a planar 
mode.  As it turns out, we can get a nice boost in other areas too.  
Laurent mentioned a 9.7% performance boost in iperf with the coalesced 
MMIO changes for the e1000 when he originally posted this work for KVM.
