[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/4] acpi hotplug of devices behind a pci bridge


From: Michael S. Tsirkin
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/4] acpi hotplug of devices behind a pci bridge
Date: Mon, 7 Oct 2013 12:21:26 +0300

This is on top of patchset generating ACPI tables in qemu.
Please review and consider for 1.7.

Changes from v2:
    - split new code out to a separate file: acpi/pcihp.c
      this way we can reuse it for q35 later
    - rebased on top of the latest acpi-build patchset

Changes from v1:
    - fixed some bugs
    - fixed migration and cross version compatibility
    - rebased to latest bits

This adds support for device hotplug behind pci bridges, by generating ACPI
tables describing the current hierarchy.
Bridge devices themselves need to be pre-configured on qemu command line.

How to use:
Describe buses on command line. E.g.:
    -device pci-bridge,id=bar,chassis_nr=1 -device
    virtio-net,netdev=bur,addr=0x1,id=far,bus=bar
use monitor command for hotplug:
    device_del far

We don't currently use QOM properties to generate this info since:
    - info about hotpluggability of devices is lacking
    - we need to list all devices and buses in a predictable order
        For now, add a pci core function to do the above predictable order
        walk.

This is on top of acpi patchset posted previously.
with a small patch adding a core function to walk all
pci buses, on top.
Can also be found in my git tree
    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/mst/qemu.git acpi-bridges

Portability:
    - Non x86 (or any Linux) platforms don't need any of this code.
      They can keep happily using SHPC the way
      they always did.

Things to note:

    - Extensive use of glib completely removes
      pointer math: we use
      g_array_append_vals exclusively.

    - As was the case previously,
      systems that lack working iasl are detected at configure time,
      pre-generated hex files in source tree are used in this case.
      This addresses the concern with iasl/big-endian
      systems.

    - Cross version migration: when running with -M 1.6
      and older, new hotplug functionality is unavailable.
      All ACPI table generation is disabled.
      We present FW_CFG interface compatible with 1.6.
