[RFC PATCH-for-8.0 00/10] hw/virtio: Build most objects as target independent units

["Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <philmd@linaro.org>]

Currently the inlined virtio_access_is_big_endian() function
"hw/virtio/virtio-access.h" which is used by all I/O accesses
force any virtio device to be built as target-dependent object.

This series isolates the few VirtIO target specific bits, trying
to not impact the performance (a function is un-inlined once
not in the hot path).

At the end only 6 files remain in the target specific source set,
all other files are built once.

On a Linux/x86_64 host when building QEMU configured with
--disable-user, before this series a "make clean all" builds
7713 objects, after it only build 6831... I don't think my maths
are correct, because that would save building a few hundreds objects.

RFC because only build-tested.

Regards,

Phil.

  hw/virtio: Add missing "hw/core/cpu.h" include
  hw/virtio: Rename virtio_ss[] -> specific_virtio_ss[]
  hw/virtio: Constify qmp_virtio_feature_map_t[]
  hw/virtio: Extract config read/write accessors to virtio-config.c
  hw/virtio: Extract QMP related code virtio-qmp.c
  hw/virtio: Cache access_is_big_endian value in VirtIODevice state
  hw/virtio: Directly access cached VirtIODevice::access_is_big_endian
  hw/virtio: Un-inline virtio_access_is_big_endian()
