Implement migration via unix sockets. While you can fake this using
exec and netcat, this involves forking another process and is
generally not very nice. By doing this directly in qemu, we can avoid
the copy through the external nc command. This is useful for
implementations (such as libvirt) that want to do "secure" migration;
we pipe the data on the sending side into the unix socket, libvirt
picks it up, encrypts it, and transports it, and then on the remote
side libvirt decrypts it, dumps it to another unix socket, and
feeds it into qemu.
The implementation is straightforward and looks very similar to
migration-exec.c and migration-tcp.c

Route PC irqs to ISA bus instead of i8259 directly
A PC has its motherboard IRQ lines connected to both the PIC and IOAPIC.
Currently, qemu routes IRQs to the PIC which then calls the IOAPIC, an
incestuous arrangement. In order to clean this up, create a new ISA IRQ
abstraction, and have devices raise ISA IRQs (which in turn raise the i8259
IRQs as usual).

QEMU set irq0override in fw_cfg
Hi,
After discussing the issue with Avi, Gleb and a couple others on irq,
we came to the conclusion that it is preferred to have QEMU request
features from the BIOS, rather than notifying the BIOS that it is
running on QEMU or KVM. This way memory ranges can change etc. and
an older BIOS will continue to work on newer QEMU if it receives the
info as a fw_cfg value.
This one also matches what qemu-kvm does for irq0override, except I
haven't made it configurable. I leave that as an exercise for whoever
would be interested in switching off irq0override.
Thanks,
Jes
Set irq0 override in fw_cfg, informing the BIOS that QEMU expects
override on irq0. This matches qemu-kvm, and will help sharing a
single BIOS binary.

When trying to do detached migration with exec, I found that
the monitor wouldn't always return in a timely manner. I
tracked this down to exec_start_outgoing_migration. It
appeared we were setting the fd to NONBLOCK'ing, but in
point of fact we weren't.
This bugfix should also go onto the stable 0.10 branch

Hi all,
currently the vga screen_dump code doesn't use the DisplayState
interface properly and tries to replace it temporarily while taking the
screenshot.
A better approach is to register a DisplayChangeListener, call
vga_hw_update, and finally write the ppm in the next call from dpy_update.
Testing is appreciated.

sdl.c: support 32 bpp cursors
Hello,
currently when a 32 bpp cursor gets defined the result is all-black in
the areas that are not transparent (you'll get a 32 bpp cursor if you
use my previous patch to allow vmware_vga to use a 32 bpp framebuffer).
This is because the switch in sdl.c lacks a 32 bpp case.
The thing I am unsure about though is which byte is the unused one and
should be skipped, the first or the last - for the black-and-white
cursors I tested it doesn't make a difference...

Use corect depth from DisplaySurface in vmware_vga.c
Hello,
for what I can tell, there is no way for vmware_vga to work correctly
right now. It assumes that the framebuffer bits-per-pixel and the one
from the DisplaySurface are identical (it uses directly the VRAM from
vga.c), but it always assumes 3 bytes per pixel, which is never possible
with the current version of DisplaySurface.
Attached patch fixes that by using ds_get_bits_per_pixel.

Third attempt to invoke create_config properly
Second attempt failed due to $_ not being standard and as such it's
interpretation by certain shells when they were symlinked to /bin/sh
and invoked as such led to unpredictable results. So instead of trying
to be clever just use /bin/sh directly (That's what direct execution
would have led to anyway)
Hopefully this time nothing will break (Mingw?)

make windows notice media change
Windows seems to be very stupid about cdrom media change. It polls
cdrom status and if status goes ready->media not present->ready
it assumes that media was changed. If "media not present" step doesn't
happen even if "medium may have changed" was seen it assumes media
haven't changed. Fake "media not present" step.
Filip Navara did a great job debugging this issue in Windows and this is
what he found out:
BINGO! ... The media present notifications were broken ever since
Windows 2000 it seems. The media change is detected properly and it's
passed to ClassSetMediaChangeState function which in turn calls
ClasspInternalSetMediaChangeState. This function is responsible for
changing some internal state of the device object and sending the PnP
events which later result in application notifications. It has this
tiny bit of code (not copied byte for byte):
if (oldMediaState == NewState) {
// Media is in the same state it was before.
return;
}
so the end result is that for the case of UNIT NEEDS ATTENTION /
MEDIUM MAY HAVE CHANGED without NOT READY in-between is really broken.
It results in the internal media change counter incremented, so the
media contents are re-read when necessary, instead of relying on the
cache, but the notifications to applications are never sent.
