[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com>

The file is only included from the top Makefile. Rename it to reflect
this more obviously.

[Qemu-devel] [PULL 02/11] pc: allow raising low memory via max-ram-below-4g option

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com>

This patch extends the functionality of the max-ram-below-4g option
to also allow increasing lowmem.  Use case: Give as much memory as
possible to legacy non-PAE guests.

While being at it also rework the lowmem calculation logic and add a
longish comment describing how it works and what the compatibility
constrains are.

Note:  This is a incompatible change.  When setting max-ram-below-4g to
a value larger than 3.5G (or 3G with gigabyte alignment) it has no
effect on older qemu versions: qemu silently ignores it.  With the patch
applied it actually has an effect and changes the ram layout.  Highly
unlikely to hit in practive though as there is no reason start old qemu
versions that way.

[Qemu-devel] [PULL 04/11] scsi: esp: check TI buffer index before read/write

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Prasad J Pandit <pjp@fedoraproject.org>

The 53C9X Fast SCSI Controller(FSC) comes with internal 16-byte
FIFO buffers. One is used to handle commands and other is for
information transfer. Three control variables 'ti_rptr',
'ti_wptr' and 'ti_size' are used to control r/w access to the
information transfer buffer ti_buf[TI_BUFSZ=16]. In that,

'ti_rptr' is used as read index, where read occurs.
'ti_wptr' is a write index, where write would occur.
'ti_size' indicates total bytes to be read from the buffer.

While reading/writing to this buffer, index could exceed its
size. Add check to avoid OOB r/w access.

[Qemu-devel] [PULL 07/11] Makefile: Derive "PKGVERSION" from "git describe" by default

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: Fam Zheng <famz@redhat.com>

Currently, if not specified in "./configure", QEMU_PKGVERSION will be
empty. Write a rule in Makefile to generate a value from "git describe"
combined with a possible git tree cleanness suffix, and write into a new
header.

    $ cat qemu-version.h
    #define QEMU_PKGVERSION "-v2.6.0-557-gd6550e9-dirty"

Include the header in .c files where the macro is referenced. It's not
necessary to include it in all files, otherwise each time the content of
the file changes, all sources have to be recompiled.

I've just discovered that this rune incorrectly always
adds "-dirty" to the version string if /bin/sh is dash.

This is because "&>/dev/null" is not POSIX shell syntax, it is a
bash extension, and if you run this with dash then the command
always fails.

I'm not sure why we are redirecting anything here, since we
are using git diff-index's --quiet option which suppresses
all output. The simplest fix would seem to be to just delete
the redirect option entirely.

The fix for this should probably be cc:stable since it's
annoying that you can't out of the box build QEMU and have
the version number say '2.7.0' rather than '2.7.0-dirty'...

[Qemu-devel] [PULL 11/11] avx2 configure: Use primitives in test

[Paolo Bonzini]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

Use the avx2 primitives during the test, thus making sure that the
compiler and assembler could actually use avx2.

This also detects the failure case on gcc 4.8.x with -save-temps
and avoids the need for the gcc version check in cutils.

Hi. I'm afraid this fails to build for me (x86-64 Linux, gcc).

I think this is the "trying to use the #pragma target("avx2") doesn't
work under ccache" problem again. (configure tests run not under ccache,
but the build proper does.) See
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-02/msg05298.html
from last time we tried this...

Possibly it's just that you deleted the "requires gcc 4.9" check with
the comment that says "this doesn't work with older gcc", so now
we're again trying to do this on the older gcc where it doesn't work ;-)

Compiler errors below.

Sigh I see; so the configure test is run with a different set of compiler
options than the main compiles?  How is any configure test supposed to
check that it's got a sane configuration?

In that case, I suggest the fix is to leave the change to the configure
script, but for the moment leave the #if QEMU_GNUC_PREREG(4, 9)

I wasn't quite right -- we do run configure tests with ccache, we just
force it to not read the cache. So I think your problem is just that
your configure test doesn't fail when run under ccache, even though the
main cutils.c compile does:

$ cat /tmp/zz9.c
#pragma GCC push_options
#pragma GCC target("avx2")
#include <cpuid.h>
#include <immintrin.h>

static int bar(void *a) {
    return _mm256_movemask_epi8(_mm256_cmpeq_epi8(*(__m256i *)a, (__m256i){0}));
}
static void *bar_ifunc(void) {return (void*) bar;}
int foo(void *a) __attribute__((ifunc("bar_ifunc")));
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { return foo(argv[0]);}
$ ccache gcc -g -Wall -o /tmp/zz9 /tmp/zz9.c

This seems to be because to get the compile failure you have
to be doing a .c to .o compile:

$ ccache gcc -g -Wall -o /tmp/zz9.o -c /tmp/zz9.c
/tmp/zz9.c: In function ‘bar’:
/tmp/zz9.c:7:5: warning: implicit declaration of function
‘_mm256_movemask_epi8’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
     return _mm256_movemask_epi8(_mm256_cmpeq_epi8(*(__m256i *)a,
(__m256i){0}));
     ^
/tmp/zz9.c:7:5: warning: implicit declaration of function
‘_mm256_cmpeq_epi8’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
/tmp/zz9.c:7:53: error: ‘__m256i’ undeclared (first use in this function)
     return _mm256_movemask_epi8(_mm256_cmpeq_epi8(*(__m256i *)a,
(__m256i){0}));
                                                     ^
/tmp/zz9.c:7:53: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only
once for each function it appears in
/tmp/zz9.c:7:62: error: expected expression before ‘)’ token
     return _mm256_movemask_epi8(_mm256_cmpeq_epi8(*(__m256i *)a,
(__m256i){0}));
                                                              ^
/tmp/zz9.c:8:1: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
[-Wreturn-type]
 }
 ^

but since your test is using compile_prog it does a .c to executable.

The difference is because ccache doesn't intercept .c-to-executable
compiles, so they go straight to real gcc and don't have -save-temps,
but it does intercept a .c-to-.o compile, which thus does get -save-temps
and so hits the gcc bug.

TLDR: if you make your configure test use compile_object it ought to
correctly detect that AVX2 doesn't work for this gcc+ccache combo.

Does the following (on top of the existing patch) fix it for you:
