[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 00/20] memory-device: complete refactoring + virtio-pmem

[David Hildenbrand <david@redhat.com>]

This series completes refactoring of pre_plug, plug and unplug logic of
memory devices. With this as a basis, one can easily have e.g. virtio
based memory devices (virtio-mem, virtio-pmem, virtio-fs?) with minor
modifications on e.g. x86.

Patch 1-14 are the "real" patches of this series. Patch 15-20 are a
modified version of the virtio-pmem prototype that makes use of the new
memory-device hotplug model.

I modified Pankajs work to work with this series. virtio-pmem is included
as it was requested during the review to showcase a real user, so we can
discuss if this is good enough for us or if we have to do further changes.

More details about virtio-pmem can be found at:
    https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/13/102

Of special interest regarding virtio devices being memory-devices are:
- "virtio-pmem: hotplug support functions"
- "pc: support for virtio-pmem"


Example: defining a simple virtio-pmem device (on /dev/zero for simplicity):

    qemu-system-x86_64 \
     -machine pc \
     -m 8G,maxmem=20G \
     -object memory-backend-file,id=mem1,share,mem-path=/dev/zero,size=4G \
     -device virtio-pmem-pci,id=vp1,memdev=mem1

QEMU 3.0.50 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) info memory-devices
Memory device [virtio-pmem]: "vp1"
  memaddr: 0x240000000
  size: 4294967296
  memdev: /objects/mem1

(qemu) info memory_size_summary
base memory: 8589934592
plugged memory: 4294967296


v1 -> v2:
- Include virtio-pmem prototype
- Add "memory-device: fix error message when hinted address is too small"
- Add "memory-device: use memory device terminology in error messages"
- Add "hw/acpi-build: only indicate nvdimm and pc-dimm"
- Add "memory-device: ids of virtio based devices are special"
- Add "memory-device: ids of virtio based devices are special"
- Minor changes/fixes for other patches
