qmp: add filtering of statistics by name

Allow retrieving only a subset of statistics. This can be useful
for example in order to plot a subset of the statistics many times
a second: KVM publishes ~40 statistics for each vCPU on x86; retrieving
and serializing all of them would be useless.

Another use will be in HMP in the following patch; implementing the
filter in the backend is easy enough that it was deemed okay to make
this a public interface.

Example:

{ "execute": "query-stats",
"arguments": {
"target": "vcpu",
"vcpus": [ "/machine/unattached/device[2]",
"/machine/unattached/device[4]" ],
"providers": [
{ "provider": "kvm",
"names": [ "l1d_flush", "exits" ] } } }

{ "return": {
"vcpus": [
{ "path": "/machine/unattached/device[2]"
"providers": [
{ "provider": "kvm",
"stats": [ { "name": "l1d_flush", "value": 41213 },
{ "name": "exits", "value": 74291 } ] } ] },
{ "path": "/machine/unattached/device[4]"
"providers": [

This can be used in the future by HMP commands such as "info

Example:

The QAPI is a bit more verbose than just a list of StatsProvider,
so that it can be subsequently extended with filtering of statistics
by name.

If a provider is specified more than once in the filter, each request
will be included separately in the output.

qmp: Support for querying stats

Gathering statistics is important for development, for monitoring and
for performance measurement. There are tools such as kvm_stat that do
this and they rely on the _user_ knowing the interesting data points
rather than the tool (which can treat them as opaque).

The commands introduced in this commit introduce QMP support for
querying stats; the goal is to take the capabilities of these tools
and making them available throughout the whole virtualization stack,
so that one can observe, monitor and measure virtual machines without
having shell access + root on the host that runs them.

query-stats returns a list of all stats per target type (only VM
and vCPU to start); future commits add extra options for specifying
stat names, vCPU qom paths, and providers. All these are used by the
HMP command "info stats". Because of the development usecases around
statistics, a good HMP interface is important.

query-stats-schemas returns a list of stats included in each target
type, with an option for specifying the provider. The concepts in the
schema are based on the KVM binary stats' own introspection data, just
translated to QAPI.

There are two reasons to have a separate schema that is not tied to
the QAPI schema. The first is the contents of the schemas: the new
introspection data provides different information than the QAPI data,
namely unit of measurement, how the numbers are gathered and change
(peak/instant/cumulative/histogram), and histogram bucket sizes.
There's really no reason to have this kind of metadata in the QAPI
introspection schema (except possibly for the unit of measure, but
there's a very weak justification).

Another reason is the dynamicity of the schema. The QAPI introspection
data is very much static; and while QOM is somewhat more dynamic,
generally we consider that to be a bug rather than a feature these days.
On the other hand, the statistics that are exposed by QEMU might be
passed through from another source, such as KVM, and the disadvantages of
manually updating the QAPI schema for outweight the benefits from vetting
the statistics and filtering out anything that seems "too unstable".
Running old QEMU with new kernel is a supported usecase; if old QEMU
cannot expose statistics from a new kernel, or if a kernel developer
needs to change QEMU before gathering new info from the new kernel,
then that is a poor user interface.

The framework provides a method to register callbacks for these QMP
commands. Most of the work in fact is done by the callbacks, and a
large majority of this patch is new QAPI structs and commands.

Examples (with KVM stats):

- Query all VM stats:

{ "execute": "query-stats", "arguments" : { "target": "vm" } }

{ "return": [
{ "provider": "kvm",
"stats": [
{ "name": "max_mmu_page_hash_collisions", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "max_mmu_rmap_size", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "nx_lpage_splits", "value": 148 },
... ] },
{ "provider": "xyz",
"stats": [ ... ] }
] }

- Query all vCPU stats:

{ "execute": "query-stats", "arguments" : { "target": "vcpu" } }

{ "return": [
{ "provider": "kvm",
"qom_path": "/machine/unattached/device[0]"
"stats": [
{ "name": "guest_mode", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "directed_yield_successful", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "directed_yield_attempted", "value": 106 },
... ] },
{ "provider": "kvm",
"qom_path": "/machine/unattached/device[1]"
"stats": [
{ "name": "guest_mode", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "directed_yield_successful", "value": 0 },
{ "name": "directed_yield_attempted", "value": 106 },
... ] },
] }

- Retrieve the schemas:

{ "execute": "query-stats-schemas" }

{ "return": [
{ "provider": "kvm",
"target": "vcpu",

{ "name": "guest_mode",

hw/cxl/host: Add support for CXL Fixed Memory Windows.

The concept of these is introduced in [1] in terms of the
description the CEDT ACPI table. The principal is more general.
Unlike once traffic hits the CXL root bridges, the host system
memory address routing is implementation defined and effectively
static once observable by standard / generic system software.
Each CXL Fixed Memory Windows (CFMW) is a region of PA space
which has fixed system dependent routing configured so that
accesses can be routed to the CXL devices below a set of target
root bridges. The accesses may be interleaved across multiple
root bridges.

For QEMU we could have fully specified these regions in terms
of a base PA + size, but as the absolute address does not matter
it is simpler to let individual platforms place the memory regions.

ExampleS:
-cxl-fixed-memory-window targets.0=cxl.0,size=128G
-cxl-fixed-memory-window targets.0=cxl.1,size=128G
-cxl-fixed-memory-window targets.0=cxl0,targets.1=cxl.1,size=256G,interleave-granularity=2k

Specifies
* 2x 128G regions not interleaved across root bridges, one for each of
the root bridges with ids cxl.0 and cxl.1
* 256G region interleaved across root bridges with ids cxl.0 and cxl.1
with a 2k interleave granularity.

When system software enumerates the devices below a given root bridge
it can then decide which CFMW to use. If non interleave is desired
(or possible) it can use the appropriate CFMW for the root bridge in
question. If there are suitable devices to interleave across the
two root bridges then it may use the 3rd CFMS.

A number of other designs were considered but the following constraints
made it hard to adapt existing QEMU approaches to this particular problem.
1) The size must be known before a specific architecture / board brings
up it's PA memory map. We need to set up an appropriate region.
2) Using links to the host bridges provides a clean command line interface
but these links cannot be established until command line devices have
been added.

Hence the two step process used here of first establishing the size,
interleave-ways and granularity + caching the ids of the host bridges
and then, once available finding the actual host bridges so they can
be used later to support interleave decoding.

nbd/server: Allow MULTI_CONN for shared writable exports

According to the NBD spec, a server that advertises
NBD_FLAG_CAN_MULTI_CONN promises that multiple client connections will
not see any cache inconsistencies: when properly separated by a single
flush, actions performed by one client will be visible to another
client, regardless of which client did the flush.

We always satisfy these conditions in qemu - even when we support
multiple clients, ALL clients go through a single point of reference
into the block layer, with no local caching. The effect of one client
is instantly visible to the next client. Even if our backend were a
network device, we argue that any multi-path caching effects that
would cause inconsistencies in back-to-back actions not seeing the
effect of previous actions would be a bug in that backend, and not the
fault of caching in qemu. As such, it is safe to unconditionally
advertise CAN_MULTI_CONN for any qemu NBD server situation that
supports parallel clients.

Note, however, that we don't want to advertise CAN_MULTI_CONN when we
know that a second client cannot connect (for historical reasons,
qemu-nbd defaults to a single connection while nbd-server-add and QMP
commands default to unlimited connections; but we already have
existing means to let either style of NBD server creation alter those
defaults). This is visible by no longer advertising MULTI_CONN for
'qemu-nbd -r' without -e, as in the iotest nbd-qemu-allocation.

The harder part of this patch is setting up an iotest to demonstrate
behavior of multiple NBD clients to a single server. It might be
possible with parallel qemu-io processes, but I found it easier to do
in python with the help of libnbd, and help from Nir and Vladimir in
writing the test.

mem.{size,max-size,slots}". The new property does not have
the magic conversion to megabytes of unsuffixed arguments,
and also does not understand that "0" means the default size
(you have to leave it out to get the default). This means
that we need to convert the QemuOpts by hand to a QDict.
