Now that MemOp has been pushed down into the memory API, and
callers are encoding endianness, we can collapse byte swaps
along the I/O path into the accelerator and target independent
adjust_endianness.
Collapsing byte swaps along the I/O path enables additional endian
inversion logic, e.g. SPARC64 Invert Endian TTE bit, with redundant
byte swaps cancelling out.

Preparation for collapsing the two byte swaps adjust_endianness and
handle_bswap into the former.
Call memory_region_dispatch_{read|write} with endianness encoded into
the "MemOp op" operand.
This patch does not change any behaviour as
memory_region_dispatch_{read|write} is yet to handle the endianness.
Once it does handle endianness, callers with byte swaps can collapse
them into adjust_endianness.

Prevents an infinite loop case if mapping near the upper boundary of an
address space on 32-bit emulated targets. i.e. mapping at 0xFFFFF000
with a size of 4096 won't overflow back to zero.
While we're at it, also tidy up the unicorn-specific functions.
Currently, a callback registered through the RAMBlock notifier
is not able to get the memory region type (i.e callback is not
able to use memory_region_is_ram_device function). This is
because mr->ram assignment happens _after_ the memory is allocated
whereas the callback is executed during allocation.

Backports commit 62a0db942dec6ebfec19aac2b604737d3c9a2d75 from qemu
Memory regions configured as DEVICE_BIG_ENDIAN (or DEVICE_NATIVE_ENDIAN on
big-endian guest) behave incorrectly when the memory access 'size' is smaller
than the implementation 'access_size'.
In the following code segment from access_with_adjusted_size():
if (memory_region_big_endian(mr)) {
for (i = 0; i < size; i += access_size) {
r |= access_fn(mr, addr + i, value, access_size,
(size - access_size - i) * 8, access_mask, attrs);
}
(size - access_size - i) * 8 is the number of bits that will arithmetic
shift the current value.
Currently we can only 'left' shift a read() access, and 'right' shift a write().
When the access 'size' is smaller than the implementation, we get a negative
number of bits to shift.
For the read() case, a negative 'left' shift is a 'right' shift :)
However since the 'shift' type is unsigned, there is currently no way to
right shift.
Fix this by changing the access_fn() prototype to handle signed shift values,
and modify the memory_region_shift_read|write_access() helpers to correctly
arithmetic shift the opposite direction when the 'shift' value is negative.
if MemoryRegion intialization fails it's left in semi-initialized state,
where it's size is not 0 and attached as child to owner object.
And this leds to crash in following use-case:
(monitor) object_add memory-backend-file,id=mem1,size=99999G,mem-path=/tmp/foo,discard-data=yes
memory.c:2083: memory_region_get_ram_ptr: Assertion `mr->ram_block' failed
Aborted (core dumped)
it happens due to assumption that memory region is intialized when
memory_region_size() != 0
and therefore it's ok to access it in
file_backend_unparent()
if (memory_region_size() != 0)
memory_region_get_ram_ptr()
which happens when object_add fails and unparents failed backend making
file_backend_unparent() access invalid memory region.
Fix it by making sure that memory_region_init_foo() APIs cleanup externally
visible side effects on failure (like set size to 0 and unparenting object)
This shares an cached empty FlatView among address spaces. The empty
FV is used every time when a root MR renders into a FV without memory
sections which happens when MR or its children are not enabled or
zero-sized. The empty_view is not NULL to keep the rest of memory
API intact; it also has a dispatch tree for the same reason.
On POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this halves
the amount of FlatView's in use (557 -> 260) and dispatch tables
(~800000 -> ~370000). In an unrelated experiment with 112 non-virtio
devices on x86 ("-M pc"), only 4 FlatViews are alive, and about ~2000
are created at startup.

A container can be used instead of an alias to allow switching between
multiple subregions. In this case we cannot directly share the
subregions (since they only belong to a single parent), but if the
subregions are aliases we can in turn walk those.
This is not enough to remove all source of quadratic FlatView creation,
but it enables sharing of the PCI bus master FlatViews (and their
AddressSpaceDispatch structures) across all PCI devices. For 112
virtio-net-pci devices, boot time is reduced from 25 to 10 seconds and
memory consumption from 1.4 to 1 G.

This avoids usual memory_region_transaction_commit() which rebuilds

On POWER8 with 255 CPUs, 255 virtio-net, 40 PCI bridges guest this brings
down the boot time from 25s to 20s and reduces the amount of temporary FVs
allocated during machine constructon (~800000 -> ~640000) and amount of
temporary dispatch trees (~370000 -> ~300000), the total memory footprint
goes down (18G -> 17G).

This allows sharing flat views between address spaces (AS) when
the same root memory region is used when creating a new address space.
This is done by walking through all ASes and caching one FlatView per
a physical root MR (i.e. not aliased).
This removes search for duplicates from address_space_init_shareable() as
FlatViews are shared elsewhere and keeping as::ref_count correct seems
an unnecessary and useless complication.
This should cause no change and memory use or boot time yet.

Backports commit 166206845f7fd75e720e6feea0bb01957c8da07f from qemu
As we are going to share FlatView's between AddressSpace's,
and AddressSpaceDispatch is a structure to perform quick lookup
in FlatView, this moves ASD to FlatView.
After previosly open coded ASD rendering, we can also remove
as->next_dispatch as the new FlatView pointer is stored
on a stack and set to an AS atomically.
flatview_destroy() is executed under RCU instead of
address_space_dispatch_free() now.
This makes mem_begin/mem_commit to work with ASD and mem_add with FV
as later on mem_add will be taking FV as an argument anyway.
This should cause no behavioural change.

At the moment ram device's memory regions are DEVICE_NATIVE_ENDIAN. It's
incorrect. This memory region is backed by a MMIO area in host, so the
uint64_t data that MemoryRegionOps read from/write to this area should be
host-endian rather than target-endian. Hence, current code does not work
when target and host endianness are different which is the most common case
on PPC64. To fix it, this introduces DEVICE_HOST_ENDIAN for the ram device.
This has been tested on PPC64 BE/LE host/guest in all possible combinations
including TCG.

This speeds up MEMORY_LISTENER_CALL noticeably. Right now,
with many PCI devices you have N regions added to M AddressSpaces
(M = # PCI devices with bus-master enabled) and each call looks
up the whole listener list, with at least M listeners in it.
Because most of the regions in N are BARs, which are also roughly
proportional to M, the whole thing is O(M^3). This changes it
to O(M^2), which is the best we can do without rewriting the
whole thing.
Backports commit 9a54635dcb51a3fcf7507af630168f514a8cd4e7 from qemu
With a vfio assigned device we lay down a base MemoryRegion registered
as an IO region, giving us read & write accessors. If the region
supports mmap, we lay down a higher priority sub-region MemoryRegion
on top of the base layer initialized as a RAM device pointer to the
mmap. Finally, if we have any quirks for the device (ie. address
ranges that need additional virtualization support), we put another IO
sub-region on top of the mmap MemoryRegion. When this is flattened,
we now potentially have sub-page mmap MemoryRegions exposed which
cannot be directly mapped through KVM.
This is as expected, but a subtle detail of this is that we end up
with two different access mechanisms through QEMU. If we disable the
mmap MemoryRegion, we make use of the IO MemoryRegion and service
accesses using pread and pwrite to the vfio device file descriptor.
If the mmap MemoryRegion is enabled and results in one of these
sub-page gaps, QEMU handles the access as RAM, using memcpy to the
mmap. Using either pread/pwrite or the mmap directly should be
correct, but using memcpy causes us problems. I expect that not only
does memcpy not necessarily honor the original width and alignment in
performing a copy, but it potentially also uses processor instructions
not intended for MMIO spaces. It turns out that this has been a
problem for Realtek NIC assignment, which has such a quirk that
creates a sub-page mmap MemoryRegion access.
To resolve this, we disable memory_access_is_direct() for ram_device
regions since QEMU assumes that it can use memcpy for those regions.
Instead we access through MemoryRegionOps, which replaces the memcpy
with simple de-references of standard sizes to the host memory.
With this patch we attempt to provide unrestricted access to the RAM
device, allowing byte through qword access as well as unaligned
access. The assumption here is that accesses initiated by the VM are
driven by a device specific driver, which knows the device
capabilities. If unaligned accesses are not supported by the device,
we don't want them to work in a VM by performing multiple aligned
accesses to compose the unaligned access. A down-side of this
philosophy is that the xp command from the monitor attempts to use
the largest available access weidth, unaware of the underlying
device. Using memcpy had this same restriction, but at least now an
operator can dump individual registers, even if blocks of device
memory may result in access widths beyond the capabilities of a
given device (RTL NICs only support up to dword).
Backports commit 1b16ded6a512809f99c133a97f19026fe612b2de from qemu
Setting skip_dump on a MemoryRegion allows us to modify one specific
code path, but the restriction we're trying to address encompasses
more than that. If we have a RAM MemoryRegion backed by a physical
device, it not only restricts our ability to dump that region, but
also affects how we should manipulate it. Here we recognize that
MemoryRegions do not change to sometimes allow dumps and other times
not, so we replace setting the skip_dump flag with a new initializer
so that we know exactly the type of region to which we're applying
this behavior.
