Merge branch 'xenfv-kvm-15' of git://git.infradead.org/users/dwmw2/qemu into HEAD

This adds support for emulating Xen under Linux/KVM, based on kernel
patches which have been present since Linux v5.12. As with the kernel
support, it's derived from work started by João Martins of Oracle in
2018.

This series just adds the basic platform support — CPUID, hypercalls,
event channels, a stub of XenStore.

A full single-tenant internal implementation of XenStore, and patches
to make QEMU's Xen PV drivers work with this Xen emulation, are waiting
in the wings to be submitted in a follow-on patch series.

As noted in the documentation, it's enabled by setting the xen-version
property on the KVM accelerator, e.g.:

 qemu-system-x86_64 -serial mon:stdio -M q35 -display none -m 1G -smp 2 \
    -accel kvm,xen-version=0x4000e,kernel-irqchip=split \
    -kernel vmlinuz-6.0.7-301.fc37.x86_64 \
    -append "console=ttyS0 root=/dev/sda1" \
    -drive file=/var/lib/libvirt/images/fedora28.qcow2,if=none,id=disk \
    -device ahci,id=ahci -device ide-hd,drive=disk,bus=ahci.0

Even before this was merged, we've already been using it to find and fix
bugs in the Linux kernel Xen guest support:

Xen HVM guest support
=====================
Description
-----------
KVM has support for hosting Xen guests, intercepting Xen hypercalls and event
channel (Xen PV interrupt) delivery. This allows guests which expect to be
run under Xen to be hosted in QEMU under Linux/KVM instead.
Setup
-----
Xen mode is enabled by setting the ``xen-version`` property of the KVM
accelerator, for example for Xen 4.10:
.. parsed-literal::
|qemu_system| --accel kvm,xen-version=0x4000a
Additionally, virtual APIC support can be advertised to the guest through the
``xen-vapic`` CPU flag:
.. parsed-literal::
|qemu_system| --accel kvm,xen-version=0x4000a --cpu host,+xen_vapic
When Xen support is enabled, QEMU changes hypervisor identification (CPUID
0x40000000..0x4000000A) to Xen. The KVM identification and features are not
advertised to a Xen guest. If Hyper-V is also enabled, the Xen identification
moves to leaves 0x40000100..0x4000010A.
The Xen platform device is enabled automatically for a Xen guest. This allows
a guest to unplug all emulated devices, in order to use Xen PV block and network
drivers instead. Note that until the Xen PV device back ends are enabled to work
with Xen mode in QEMU, that is unlikely to cause significant joy. Linux guests
can be dissuaded from this by adding 'xen_emul_unplug=never' on their command
line, and it can also be noted that AHCI disk controllers are exempt from being
unplugged, as are passthrough VFIO PCI devices.
Properties
----------
The following properties exist on the KVM accelerator object:
``xen-version``
This property contains the Xen version in ``XENVER_version`` form, with the
major version in the top 16 bits and the minor version in the low 16 bits.
Setting this property enables the Xen guest support.
``xen-evtchn-max-pirq``
Xen PIRQs represent an emulated physical interrupt, either GSI or MSI, which
can be routed to an event channel instead of to the emulated I/O or local
APIC. By default, QEMU permits only 256 PIRQs because this allows maximum
compatibility with 32-bit MSI where the higher bits of the PIRQ# would need
to be in the upper 64 bits of the MSI message. For guests with large numbers
of PCI devices (and none which are limited to 32-bit addressing) it may be
desirable to increase this value.
``xen-gnttab-max-frames``
Xen grant tables are the means by which a Xen guest grants access to its
memory for PV back ends (disk, network, etc.). Since QEMU only supports v1
grant tables which are 8 bytes in size, each page (each frame) of the grant
table can reference 512 pages of guest memory. The default number of frames
is 64, allowing for 32768 pages of guest memory to be accessed by PV backends
through simultaneous grants. For guests with large numbers of PV devices and
high throughput, it may be desirable to increase this value.
OS requirements
---------------
The minimal Xen support in the KVM accelerator requires the host to be running
Linux v5.12 or newer. Later versions add optimisations: Linux v5.17 added
acceleration of interrupt delivery via the Xen PIRQ mechanism, and Linux v5.19
accelerated Xen PV timers and inter-processor interrupts (IPIs).
