Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 0/6] Add API for list cpu extensions
Date: Mon, 28 Aug 2023 16:45:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230828084536.231-1-zhiwei_liu@linux.alibaba.com> (raw)

Some times we want to know what is the really mean of one cpu option.
For example, in RISC-V, we usually specify a cpu in this way:
-cpu rv64,v=on

If we don't look into the source code, we can't get the ISA extensions
of this -cpu command line.

In this patch set, we add one list_cpu_props API for common cores. It
will output the enabled ISA extensions.

In the near future, I will also list all possible user configurable
options and all possible extensions for this cpu.

In order to reuse the options parse code, I also add a QemuOptsList
for cpu.

After this patch, we can output the extensions for cpu,
"""
./qemu-system-riscv64 -cpu rv64,help
Enabled extensions:
    rv64imafdch_zicbom_zicboz_zicsr_zifencei_zihintpause_zawrs_zfa_zba_zbb_zbc_zbs_sstc_svadu
To get all configuable options for this cpu, use -device rv64-riscv-cpu,help
"""


v1->v2:

1) Give a hint to use -device cpu,help for configualbe options on cpu
2) Support list_cpu_props for linux user mode
3) Add default to some properties to make -device cpu,help output better


Todo:
1) Fix Daniel comments on KVM and cpu option check
2) Add support for other archs
3) Move qdev help function from qdev-monitor to qdev-property

LIU Zhiwei (6):
  cpu: Add new API cpu_type_by_name
  target/riscv: Add API list_cpu_props
  softmmu/vl: Add qemu_cpu_opts QemuOptsList
  target/riscv: Add default value for misa property
  target/riscv: Add defalut value for string property
  linux-user: Move qemu_cpu_opts to cpu.c
