Markus Armbruster 79f57adce6 docs/devel/qapi-code-gen: Update cross-reference syntax
The new QAPI code generator creates a cross-reference target for each
definition documentation.  Enabled for the QEMU QMP Reference manual
in commit a377f39f38, and for the QEMU Storage Daemon QMP Reference
Manual and the QEMU Guest Agent Protocol Reference in commit
a6af544344.  We've put these targets to use since, but neglected to
update doc comment markup documentation.  Do that now.

Maciej S. SzmigieroandCédric Le Goater 300dcf58b7 vfio/migration: Max in-flight VFIO device state buffers size limit
Allow capping the maximum total size of in-flight VFIO device state buffers
queued at the destination, otherwise a malicious QEMU source could
theoretically cause the target QEMU to allocate unlimited amounts of memory
for buffers-in-flight.

Since this is not expected to be a realistic threat in most of VFIO live
migration use cases and the right value depends on the particular setup
disable this limit by default by setting it to UINT64_MAX.

Maciej S. SzmigieroandCédric Le Goater 6380b0a02f vfio/migration: Add x-migration-load-config-after-iter VFIO property
This property allows configuring whether to start the config load only
after all iterables were loaded, during non-iterables loading phase.
Such interlocking is required for ARM64 due to this platform VFIO
dependency on interrupt controller being loaded first.

The property defaults to AUTO, which means ON for ARM, OFF for other
platforms.

Manos PitsidianakisandAlex Bennée e962d3c921 docs: use :kbd: role in sphinx docs
Sphinx supports the :kbd: role for notating keyboard input. They get
formatted as <kbd> HTML elements in the readthedocs theme we currently
use for Sphinx.

Besides the better visual formatting, it also helps with accessibility
as screen readers can announce the semantics of the <kbd> element to the
user.

John SnowandMarkus Armbruster 2e51072ae5 docs/qapi-domain: add return-nodesc
This form is used to annotate a return type without an accompanying
description, for when there is no "Returns:" information in the source
doc, but we have a return type we want to generate a cross-reference to.

The syntax is:

:return-nodesc: TypeName

It's primarily necessary because Sphinx always expects both a type and a
description for the prior form and will format it accordingly. To have a
reasonable rendering when the body is missing, we need to use a
different info field list entirely.

Remove the QAPI doc section heading syntax, use plain rST section

Tests and documentation are updated to match.

Interestingly, Plain rST headings work fine before this patch, except
for over- and underlining with '=', which the doc parser rejected as
invalid QAPI doc section heading in free-form comments.

Peter MaydellandMichael Tokarev 0f55ca43cd docs/devel/tracing: Update trace.h creation rune to include SPDX
checkpatch now checks that new files have an SPDX line. If you use the
shell rune in tracing.rst to create a trace.h wrapper header, this
triggers checkpatch to complain.

Although these files are tiny, it's worth having the SPDX line to
avoid having to add extra exception cases to checkpatch.

Update the rune to include creating an SPDX line.

Juraj MarcinandFabiano Rosas beeac2df5f migration: Rename save_live_complete_precopy_thread to save_complete_precopy_thread
Recent patch [1] renames the save_live_complete_precopy handler to
save_complete, as the machine is not live in most cases when this
handler is executed. The same is true also for
save_live_complete_precopy_thread, therefore this patch removes the
"live" keyword from the handler itself and related types to keep the
naming unified.

In contrast to save_complete, this handler is only executed at the end
of precopy, therefore the "precopy" keyword is retained.

Now after merging the precopy and postcopy version of complete() hook,
rename the precopy version from save_live_complete_precopy() to

Dropping the "live" when at it, because it's in most cases not live when

Peter XuandFabiano Rosas 35290df01b migration/docs: Move docs for postcopy blocktime feature
Move it out of vanilla postcopy session, but instead a standalone feature.
When at it, removing the NOTE because it's incorrect now after introduction
of max-postcopy-bandwidth, which can control the throughput even for
postcopy phase.

Manos PitsidianakisandPaolo Bonzini caa08d30f2 rust/qemu-api-macros: use syn::Error directly
Our MacroError type wraps syn::Error as a variant, and uses another
variant for custom errors. Fortunately syn::Error can be used directly,
avoiding extra code on our side, so change the proc macro crate to use
it.

Daniel P. BerrangéandStefan Hajnoczi 3d40db0efc docs: define policy forbidding use of AI code generators
There has been an explosion of interest in so called AI code
generators. Thus far though, this is has not been matched by a broadly
accepted legal interpretation of the licensing implications for code
generator outputs. While the vendors may claim there is no problem and
a free choice of license is possible, they have an inherent conflict
of interest in promoting this interpretation. More broadly there is,
as yet, no broad consensus on the licensing implications of code
generators trained on inputs under a wide variety of licenses

The DCO requires contributors to assert they have the right to
contribute under the designated project license. Given the lack of
consensus on the licensing of AI code generator output, it is not
considered credible to assert compliance with the DCO clause (b) or (c)
where a patch includes such generated code.

This patch thus defines a policy that the QEMU project will currently
not accept contributions where use of AI code generators is either
known, or suspected.

These are early days of AI-assisted software development. The legal
questions will be resolved eventually. The tools will mature, and we
can expect some to become safely usable in free software projects.
The policy we set now must be for today, and be open to revision. It's
best to start strict and safe, then relax.

Meanwhile requests for exceptions can also be considered on a case by
case basis.

Daniel P. BerrangéandStefan Hajnoczi b5d0055772 docs: define policy limiting the inclusion of generated files
Files contributed to QEMU are generally expected to be provided in the
preferred format for manipulation. IOW, we generally don't expect to
have generated / compiled code included in the tree, rather, we expect
to run the code generator / compiler as part of the build process.

There are some obvious exceptions to this seen in our existing tree, the
biggest one being the inclusion of many binary firmware ROMs. A more
niche example is the inclusion of a generated eBPF program. Or the CI
dockerfiles which are mostly auto-generated. In these cases, however,
the preferred format source code is still required to be included,
alongside the generated output.

Tools which perform user defined algorithmic transformations on code are
not considered to be "code generators". ie, we permit use of coccinelle,
spell checkers, and sed/awk/etc to manipulate code. Such use of automated
manipulation should still be declared in the commit message.

One off generators which create a boilerplate file which the author then
fills in, are acceptable if their output has clear copyright and license
status. This could be where a contributor writes a throwaway python
script to automate creation of some mundane piece of code for example.

Daniel P. BerrangéandStefan Hajnoczi 2b0e4ecd94 docs: introduce dedicated page about code provenance / sign-off
Currently we have a short paragraph saying that patches must include
a Signed-off-by line, and merely link to the kernel documentation.
The linked kernel docs have a lot of content beyond the part about
sign-off an thus are misleading/distracting to QEMU contributors.

This introduces a dedicated 'code-provenance' page in QEMU talking
about why we require sign-off, explaining the other tags we commonly
use, and what to do in some edge cases.

Bernhard BeschowandPaolo Bonzini ab81002252 rust/qemu-api: Add initial logging support based on C API
A log_mask_ln!() macro is provided which expects similar arguments as the
C version. However, the formatting works as one would expect from Rust.

To maximize code reuse the macro is just a thin wrapper around
qemu_log(). Also, just the bare minimum of logging masks is provided
which should suffice for the current use case of Rust in QEMU.
