Meson 0.58.2 does not need b_staticpic=$pie anymore, and has
stabilized the keyval module. Remove the workaround and use a few
replacements for features deprecated in the 0.57.0 release cycle.
One feature that we would like to use is passing dependencies to
summary. However, that was broken in 0.59.0 and 0.59.1. Therefore,
use the embedded Meson if the host has anything older than 0.59.2,
but allow --meson= to use 0.58.2.

KVM implements some Hyper-V 2016 functions so providing WS2008R2 version
is somewhat incorrect. While generally guests shouldn't care about it
and always check feature bits, it is known that some tools in Windows
actually check version info.
For compatibility reasons make the change for 6.2 machine types only.

Currently, we hardcode Hyper-V version id (CPUID 0x40000002) to
WS2008R2 and it is known that certain tools in Windows check this. It
seems useful to provide some flexibility by making it possible to change
this info at will. CPUID information is defined in TLFS as:
EAX: Build Number
EBX Bits 31-16: Major Version
Bits 15-0: Minor Version
ECX Service Pack
EDX Bits 31-24: Service Branch
Bits 23-0: Service Number

The enlightenment allows to use Hyper-V SynIC with hardware APICv/AVIC
enabled. Normally, Hyper-V SynIC disables these hardware features and
suggests the guest to use paravirtualized AutoEOI feature. Linux-4.15
gains support for conditional APICv/AVIC disablement, the feature
stays on until the guest tries to use AutoEOI feature with SynIC. With
'HV_DEPRECATING_AEOI_RECOMMENDED' bit exposed, modern enough Windows/
Hyper-V versions should follow the recommendation and not use the
(unwanted) feature.

By default, KVM allows the guest to use all currently supported Hyper-V
enlightenments when Hyper-V CPUID interface was exposed, regardless of if
some features were not announced in guest visible CPUIDs. hv-enforce-cpuid
feature alters this behavior and only allows the guest to use exposed
Hyper-V enlightenments. The feature is supported by Linux >= 5.14 and is
not enabled by default in QEMU.

In the SMP configuration, we should either provide a topology
parameter with a reasonable value (greater than zero) or just
omit it and QEMU will compute the missing value.
The users shouldn't provide a configuration with any parameter
of it specified as zero (e.g. -smp 8,sockets=0) which could
possibly cause unexpected results in the -smp parsing. So we
deprecate this kind of configurations since 6.2 by adding the
explicit sanity check.

ppc patch queue for 2021-09-30
Here's the next batch of ppc related patches for qemu-6.2. Highlights
are:
* Fixes for several TCG math instructions from the El Dorado Institute
* A number of improvements to the powernv machine type
* Support for a new DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR QAPI event from Daniel
Barboza
* Support for the new FORM2 PAPR NUMA representation. This allows
more specific NUMA distances, as well as asymmetric configurations
* Fix for 64-bit decrementer (used on MicroWatt CPUs)
* Assorted fixes and cleanups
* A number of updates to MAINTAINERS
Note that the DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR stuff includes changes to
files outside my normal area, but has suitable Acks.
The MAINTAINERS updates are mostly about marking minor platforms
unmaintained / orphaned, and moving some pieces away from myself and
Greg. As we move onto other projects, we're going to need to drop
more of the ppc maintainership, though we're hoping we can avoid too
abrupt a change.

At this moment we only provide one event to report a hotunplug error,
MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR. As of Linux kernel 5.12 and QEMU 6.0.0, the pseries
machine is now able to report unplug errors for other device types, such
as CPUs.
Instead of creating a (device_type)_UNPLUG_ERROR for each new device,
create a generic DEVICE_UNPLUG_GUEST_ERROR event that can be used by all
guest side unplug errors in the future. This event has a similar API as
the existing DEVICE_DELETED event, always providing the QOM path of the
device and dev->id if there's any.
With this new generic event, MEM_UNPLUG_ERROR is now marked as deprecated.

[dwg: Correct missing ')' in stubs/qdev.c]

Both qemu and qemu-img use writeback cache mode by default, which is
already documented in qemu(1). qemu-nbd uses writethrough cache mode by
default, and the default cache mode is not documented.
According to the qemu-nbd(8):
--cache=CACHE
The cache mode to be used with the file. See the
documentation of the emulator's -drive cache=... option for
allowed values.
qemu(1) says:
The default mode is cache=writeback.
So users have no reason to assume that qemu-nbd is using writethough
cache mode. The only hint is the painfully slow writing when using the
defaults.
Looking in git history, it seems that qemu used writethrough in the past
to support broken guests that did not flush data properly, or could not
flush due to limitations in qemu. But qemu-nbd clients can use
NBD_CMD_FLUSH to flush data, so using writethrough does not help anyone.
Change the default cache mode to writback, and document the default and
available values properly in the online help and manual.
With this change converting image via qemu-nbd is 3.5 times faster.
$ qemu-img create dst.img 50g
$ qemu-nbd -t -f raw -k /tmp/nbd.sock dst.img
Before this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 83.639 s ± 5.970 s [User: 2.733 s, System: 6.112 s]
Range (min … max): 76.749 s … 87.245 s 3 runs
After this change:
$ hyperfine -r3 "./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock"
Benchmark #1: ./qemu-img convert -p -f raw -O raw -T none -W fedora34.img nbd+unix:///?socket=/tmp/nbd.sock
Time (mean ± σ): 23.522 s ± 0.433 s [User: 2.083 s, System: 5.475 s]
Range (min … max): 23.234 s … 24.019 s 3 runs
Users can avoid the issue by using --cache=writeback[1] but the defaults
should give good performance for the common use case.

Although it is possible to run a specific test using the avocado
command-line, a user may want to use a specific tag while running the
``make check-acceptance`` during the development or debugging.
This allows using the AVOCADO_TAGS environment variable where the user
takes total control of which tests should run based on the tags defined.
This also makes the check-acceptance command flexible to restrict tests
based on tags while running on CI.
e.g.:
AVOCADO_TAGS="foo bar baz" make check-acceptance
