With all targets defining CPU_RESOLVING_TYPE, refactor
cpu_parse_cpu_model(type, cpu_model) to parse_cpu_model(cpu_model)
so that callers won't have to know internal resolving cpu
type. Place it in exec.c so it could be called from both
target independed vl.c and *-user/main.c.
That allows us to stop abusing cpu type from
MachineClass::default_cpu_type
as resolver class in vl.c which were confusing part of
cpu_parse_cpu_model().
Also with new parse_cpu_model(), the last users of cpu_init()
in null-machine.c and bsd/linux-user targets could be switched
to cpu_create() API and cpu_init() API will be removed by
follow up patch.
With no longer users left remove MachineState::cpu_model field,
new code should use MachineState::cpu_type instead and
leave cpu_model parsing to generic code in vl.c.
Backports commit 2278b93941d42c30e2950d4b8dff4943d064e7de from qemu
All machines that support user specified cpu_model either call
cpu_generic_init() or cpu_class_by_name()/CPUClass::parse_features
to parse feature string and to get CPU type to create.
Which leads to code duplication and hard-codding default CPU model
within machine_foo_init() code. Which makes it impossible to
get CPU type before machine_init() is run.
So instead of setting default CPUs models and doing parsing in
target specific machine_foo_init() in various ways, provide
a generic data driven cpu_model parsing before machine_init()
is called.
in follow up per target patches, it will allow to:
* define default CPU type in consistent/generic manner
per machine type and drop custom code that fallbacks
to default if cpu_model is NULL
* drop custom features parsing in targets and do it
in centralized way.
* for cases of
cpu_generic_init(TYPE_BASE/DEFAULT_CPU, "some_cpu")
replace it with
cpu_create(machine->cpu_type) || cpu_create(TYPE_FOO)
depending if CPU type is user settable or not.
not doing useless parsing and clearly documenting where
CPU model is user settable or fixed one.
Patch allows machine subclasses to define default CPU type
per machine class at class_init() time and if that is set
generic code will parse cpu_model into a MachineState::cpu_type
which will be used to create CPUs for that machine instance
and allows gradual per board conversion.

Now all TYPE_MACHINE subclasses use MACHINE_TYPE_NAME to generate the
class name. So instead of requiring each subclass to set
MachineClass::name manually, we can now set it automatically at the
TYPE_MACHINE class_base_init() function.

The macro will be useful to ensure the machine class names follow the
right format to make machine class lookup by class name work correctly.
Backports commit c84a8f01b2a5d8bf98c447796d4a747333a5b1fd from qemu
This removes the following fields from QEMUMachine: family, alias,
reset, hot_add_cpu, units_per_default_bus, no_serial, no_parallel,
use_virtcon, use_sclp, no_floppy, no_cdrom, default_display,
compat_props, and hw_version.
The only users of those fields were already converted to use QOM and
MachineClass directly, so they are not needed anymore.

This cleanup makes the number of objects depending on qapi/error.h
drop from 1910 (out of 4743) to 1612 in my "build everything" tree.
While there, separate #include from file comment with a blank line,
and drop a useless comment on why qemu/osdep.h is included first.

Add helpers to gather cache info from the host at init-time.
For now, only export the host's I/D cache line sizes, which we
will use to improve cache locality to avoid false sharing.

We know there will be cases where MTTCG won't work until additional work
is done in the front/back ends to support. It will however be useful to
be able to turn it on.
As a result MTTCG will default to off unless the combination is
supported. However the user can turn it on for the sake of testing.
Backports commit 8d4e9146b3568022ea5730d92841345d41275d66 from qemu
Support target CPUs having a page size which isn't knownn
at compile time. To use this, the CPU implementation should:
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_VARY
* not define TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* define TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN to the smallest value it
might possibly want for TARGET_PAGE_BITS
* call set_preferred_target_page_bits() in its realize
function to indicate the actual preferred target page
size for the CPU (and report any error from it)
In CONFIG_USER_ONLY, the CPU implementation should continue
to define TARGET_PAGE_BITS appropriately for the guest
OS page size.
Machines which want to take advantage of having the page
size something larger than TARGET_PAGE_BITS_MIN must
set the MachineClass minimum_page_bits field to a value
which they guarantee will be no greater than the preferred
page size for any CPU they create.
Note that changing the target page size by setting
minimum_page_bits is a migration compatibility break
for that machine.
For debugging purposes, attempts to use TARGET_PAGE_SIZE
before it has been finally confirmed will assert.

Move declarations out of qemu-common.h for functions declared in
utils/ files: e.g. include/qemu/path.h for utils/path.c.
Move inline functions out of qemu-common.h and into new files (e.g.
include/qemu/bcd.h)

Except for removing periods and exclamation points, no other changes
were made to the error messages (yet).

Straightforward replacement, except for qemu_kill_report(), which
printed a common part of its error message first, then the applicable
special part. Print each complete message with a single
error_report() instead.
Multi-line messages were replaced by error_report() followed by
error_printf().
The following changes were made to the error messages:
* The "invalid date format" message was reworded to better fit
the new error_report()+error_printf() pattern.
* On the remaining messages, only the trailing newlines, "qemu:" and
"error:" message prefixes were removed.

Introduce a new crypto/ directory that will (eventually) contain
all the cryptographic related code. This initially defines a
wrapper for initializing gnutls and for computing hashes with
gnutls. The former ensures that gnutls is guaranteed to be
initialized exactly once in QEMU regardless of CLI args. The
block quorum code currently fails to initialize gnutls so it
only works by luck, if VNC server TLS is not requested. The
hash APIs avoids the need to litter the rest of the code with
preprocessor checks and simplifies callers by allocating the
correct amount of memory for the requested hash.

ARM and probably the rest of the arches have significant memory leaks as
they have no release interface.
Additionally, DrMemory does not have 64-bit support and thus I can't
test the 64-bit version under Windows. Under Linux valgrind supports
both 32-bit and 64-bit but there are different macros and code for Linux
and Windows.
