  • Guest debugging support for KVM (Jan Kiszka) ...
    e22a25c9 
    This is a backport of the guest debugging support for the KVM
accelerator that is now part of the KVM tree. It implements the reworked
KVM kernel API for guest debugging (KVM_CAP_SET_GUEST_DEBUG) which is
not yet part of any mainline kernel but will probably be 2.6.30 stuff.
So far supported is x86, but PPC is expected to catch up soon.

Core features are:
 - unlimited soft-breakpoints via code patching
 - hardware-assisted x86 breakpoints and watchpoints

Changes in this version:
 - use generic hook cpu_synchronize_state to transfer registers between
   user space and kvm
 - push kvm_sw_breakpoints into KVMState

  • Drop internal bdrv_pread()/bdrv_pwrite() APIs (Avi Kivity) ...
    eda578e5 
    Now that scsi generic no longer uses bdrv_pread() and bdrv_pwrite(), we can
drop the corresponding internal APIs, which overlap bdrv_read()/bdrv_write()
and, being byte oriented, are unnatural for a block device.

  • Add internal scsi generic block API (Avi Kivity) ...
    04eeb8b6 
    Add an internal API for the generic block layer to send scsi generic commands
to block format driver.  This means block format drivers no longer need
to consider overloaded nb_sectors parameters.

  • Add specialized block driver scsi generic API (Avi Kivity) ...
    7d780669 
    When a scsi device is backed by a scsi generic device instead of an
ordinary host block device, the block API is abused in a couple of annoying
ways:

 - nb_sectors is negative, and specifies a byte count instead of a sector count
 - offset is ignored, since scsi-generic is essentially a packet protocol

This overloading makes hacking the block layer difficult.  Remove it by
introducing a new explicit API for scsi-generic devices.  The new API
is still backed by the old implementation, but at least the users are
insulated.
