With the recent set of CPU hardware vulnerabilities on x86, it is
increasingly difficult to understand which CPU configurations are
good to use and what flaws they might be vulnerable to.
This doc attempts to help management applications and administrators in
picking sensible CPU configuration on x86 hosts. It outlines which of
the named CPU models are good choices, and describes which extra CPU
flags should be enabled to allow the guest to mitigate hardware flaws.

Invoking 'make vm-build-freebsd' and friends with V=1 should
propagate that verbosity setting down into the build run
inside the VM. Make sure we do that. This brings it into
line with how the container tests handle V=1.

When QEMU emulates vNVDIMM labels and migrates vNVDIMM devices, it
needs to know whether the backend storage is a real persistent memory,
in order to decide whether special operations should be performed to
ensure the data persistence.
This boolean option 'pmem' allows users to specify whether the backend
storage of memory-backend-file is a real persistent memory. If
'pmem=on', QEMU will set the flag RAM_PMEM in the RAM block of the
corresponding memory region. If 'pmem' is set while lack of libpmem
support, a error is generated.

I'm not entirely sure who's using this information and certainly in a
CI environment it just washes over as additional noise. Later patches
will provide new reporting options so a user who wants to analyse
individual tests will be able to use that to get the information.

Commit cf869d5317 "qmp: support out-of-band (oob) execution" added a
general mechanism for command-independent arguments just for an
out-of-band flag:
The "control" key is introduced to store this extra flag. "control"
field is used to store arguments that are shared by all the commands,
rather than command specific arguments. Let "run-oob" be the first.
However, it failed to reject unknown members of "control". For
instance, in QMP command
{"execute": "query-name", "id": 42, "control": {"crap": true}}
"crap" gets silently ignored.
Instead of fixing this, revert the general "control" mechanism
(because YAGNI), and do it the way I initially proposed, with key
"exec-oob". Simpler code, simpler interface.
An out-of-band command
{"execute": "migrate-pause", "id": 42, "control": {"run-oob": true}}
becomes
{"exec-oob": "migrate-pause", "id": 42}

[Commit message typo fixed]
Commit cf869d5317 "qmp: support out-of-band (oob) execution" made
"id" mandatory for all commands when the client accepted capability
"oob". This is rather onerous when you play with QMP by hand, and
unnecessarily so: only out-of-band commands need an ID for reliable
matching of response to command.
Revert that part of commit cf869d5317 for now, but have documentation
advise on the need to use "id" with out-of-band commands.

OOB documentation is spread over qmp-spec.txt sections 2.2.1
Capabilities and 2.3 Issuing Commands. The amount of detail is a bit
distracting there. Move the meat of the matter to new section 2.3.1
Out of band execution.
Throw in a few other improvements while there:
* 2.2 Server Greeting: Drop advice to search entire capabilities
array; should be obvious.
* 3. QMP Examples
- 3.1 Server Greeting: Update greeting to the one we expect for the
release. Now shows capability "oob". Update qmp-intro.txt
likewise.
- 3.2 Capabilities negotiation: Show client accepting capability
"oob".
- 3.7 Out-of-band execution: New.

[Whitespace tidied up]
Accept 'if' key in top-level elements, accepted as string or list of
string type. The following patches will modify the test visitor to
check the value is correctly saved, and generate #if/#endif code (as a
single #if/endif line or a series for a list).
Example of 'if' key:
{ 'struct': 'TestIfStruct', 'data': { 'foo': 'int' },
'if': 'defined(TEST_IF_STRUCT)' }
The generated code is for now *unconditional*. Later patches generate
the conditionals.

Out-Of-Band handlers need to protect shared state if there is any.
Mention it in the document. Meanwhile, touch up some other places too,
either with better English, or reordering of bullets.

Only one existing trace event uses a floating point type. Unfortunately
float and double cannot be supported since SystemTap does not have
floating point types.
Remove float and double from the whitelist and document this limitation.
Update the migrate_transferred trace event to use uint64_t instead of
double.

It often happens that just a few discriminator values imply extra data in
a flat union. Existing checks did not make possible to leave other values
uncovered. Such cases had to be worked around by either stating a dummy
(empty) type or introducing another (subset) discriminator enumeration.
Both options create redundant entities in qapi files for little profit.
With this patch it is not necessary anymore to add designated union
fields for every possible value of a discriminator enumeration.
