Considering that features are converted to global properties and
global properties are automatically applied to every new instance
of created CPU (at object_new() time), there is no point in
parsing cpu_model string every time a CPU created. So move
parsing outside CPU creation loop and do it only once.
Parsing also should be done before any CPU is created so that
features would affect the first CPU a well.

Currently CPUClass->parse_features() is used to parse -cpu
features string and set properties on created CPU instances.
But considering that features specified by -cpu apply to every
created CPU instance, it doesn't make sense to parse the same
features string for every CPU created. It also makes every target
that cares about parsing features string explicitly call
CPUClass->parse_features() parser, which gets in a way if we
consider using generic device_add for CPU hotplug as device_add
has not a clue about CPU specific hooks.
Turns out we can use global properties mechanism to set
properties on every created CPU instance for a given type. That
way it's possible to convert CPU features into a set of global
properties for CPU type specified by -cpu cpu_model and common
Device.device_post_init() will apply them to CPU of given type
automatically regardless whether it's manually created CPU or CPU
created with help of device_add.

Along with change add target to null-machine tests, so
that when switch to CPU_RESOLVING_TYPE happens,
it would ensure that null-machine usecase still works.

This function needs to be converted to QOM hook and virtualised for
multi-arch. This rename interferes, as cpu-qom will not have access
to the renaming causing name divergence. This rename doesn't really do
anything anyway so just delete it.

As cpu.h is another typically widely included file which doesn't need
full access to the softfloat API we can remove the includes from here
as well. Where they do need types it's typically for float_status and
the rounding modes so we move that to softfloat-types.h as well.
As a result of not having softfloat in every cpu.h call we now need to
add it to various helpers that do need the full softfloat.h
definitions.
Backports commit 24f91e81b65fcdd0552d1f0fcb0ea7cfe3829c19 from qemu
The MC68040 MMU provides the size of the access that
triggers the page fault.
This size is set in the Special Status Word which
is written in the stack frame of the access fault
exception.
So we need the size in m68k_cpu_unassigned_access() and
m68k_cpu_handle_mmu_fault().
To be able to do that, this patch modifies the prototype of
handle_mmu_fault handler, tlb_fill() and probe_write().
do_unassigned_access() already includes a size parameter.
This patch also updates handle_mmu_fault handlers and
tlb_fill() of all targets (only parameter, no code change).

Starting with Windows Server 2012 and Windows 8, if
CPUID.40000005.EAX contains a value of -1, Windows assumes specific
limit to the number of VPs. In this case, Windows Server 2012
guest VMs may use more than 64 VPs, up to the maximum supported
number of processors applicable to the specific Windows
version being used.

For compatibility, Let's introduce a new property for X86CPU,
named "x-hv-max-vps" as Eduardo's suggestion, and set it
to 0x40 before machine 2.10.
(The "x-" prefix indicates that the property is not supposed to
be a stable user interface.)

Currently when running KVM, we expose "KVMKVMKVM\0\0\0" in
the 0x40000000 CPUID leaf. Other hypervisors (VMWare,
HyperV, Xen, BHyve) all do the same thing, which leaves
TCG as the odd one out.
The CPUID signature is used by software to detect which
virtual environment they are running in and (potentially)
change behaviour in certain ways. For example, systemd
supports a ConditionVirtualization= setting in unit files.
The virt-what command can also report the virt type it is
running on
Currently both these apps have to resort to custom hacks
like looking for 'fw-cfg' entry in the /proc/device-tree
file to identify TCG.
This change thus proposes a signature "TCGTCGTCGTCG" to be
reported when running under TCG.
To hide this, the -cpu option tcg-cpuid=off can be used.

This speeds up SMM switches. Later on it may remove the need to take
the BQL, and it may also allow to reuse code between TCG and KVM.
Backports commit f8c45c6550b9ff1e1f0b92709ff3213a79870879 from qemu
The existing code for "host" and "max" CPU models overrides every
single feature in the CPU object at realize time, even the ones
that were explicitly enabled or disabled by the user using
"feat=on" or "feat=off", while features set using +feat/-feat are
kept.
This means "-cpu host,+invtsc" works as expected, while
"-cpu host,invtsc=on" doesn't.
This was a known bug, already documented in a comment inside
x86_cpu_expand_features(). What makes this bug worse now is that
libvirt 3.0.0 and newer now use "feat=on|off" instead of
+feat/-feat when it detects a QEMU version that supports it (see
libvirt commit d47db7b16dd5422c7e487c8c8ee5b181a2f9cd66).
Change the feature property getter/setter to set a
env->user_features field, to keep track of features that were
explicitly changed using QOM properties. Then make the
max_features code not override user features when handling "-cpu
host" and "-cpu max".
This will also allow us to remove the plus_features/minus_features
hack in the future, but I plan to do that after 2.9.0 is
released.

Paths through the softmmu code during code generation now need to be audited
to check for double locking of tb_lock. In particular, VMEXIT can take tb_lock
through cpu_vmexit -> cpu_x86_update_cr4 -> tlb_flush.
To avoid this, split VMEXIT delivery in two parts, similar to what is done with
exceptions. cpu_vmexit only records the VMEXIT exit code and information, and
cc->do_interrupt can then deliver it when it is safe to take the lock.

We've currently got 18 architectures in QEMU, and thus 18 target-xxx
folders in the root folder of the QEMU source tree. More architectures
(e.g. RISC-V, AVR) are likely to be included soon, too, so the main
folder of the QEMU sources slowly gets quite overcrowded with the
target-xxx folders.
To disburden the main folder a little bit, let's move the target-xxx
folders into a dedicated target/ folder, so that target-xxx/ simply
becomes target/xxx/ instead.
