target/ppc: Fix regression due to Power10 and Power11 having same PCR

Power11 has the same PCR (Processor Compatibility Register) value, as
Power10.

Due to this, QEMU considers Power11 as a valid compat-mode for Power10,
ie. earlier it was possible to run QEMU with
'-M pseries,max-compat-mode=power11 --cpu power10'

Same PCR also introduced a regression where `-M pseries --cpu power10`
boots as Power11 (ie. logical PVR is of Power11, even though PVR is
Power10). The regression was due to 'do_client_architecture_support'
checking for valid compat modes and finding Power11 to be a valid compat
mode for Power10 (it happens even without passing 'max-compat-mode'
explicitly).

Fix compat-mode issue and regression, by ensuring a future Power
processor (with a higher logical_pvr value, eg. P11) cannot be valid
compat-mode for an older Power processor (eg. P10)

ppc: Add a return value to ppc_set_compat() and ppc_set_compat_all()

As recommended in "qapi/error.h", indicate success / failure with a
return value. Since ppc_set_compat() is called from a VMState handler,
let's make it an int so that it propagates any negative errno returned
by kvmppc_set_compat(). Do the same for ppc_set_compat_all() for
consistency, even if it isn't called in a context where a negative errno
is required on failure.

This will allow to simplify error handling in the callers.

...
error_propagate(errp, err);
...
return ...

to

if (!foo(..., errp)) {

where nothing else needs @err. Coccinelle script:

Not exactly elegant, I'm afraid.

The "when != lbl:" is necessary to avoid transforming

if (fun(args, &err)) {
goto out
}
...
out:
error_propagate(errp, err);

even though other paths to label out still need the error_propagate().
For an actual example, see sclp_realize().

Without the "when strict", Coccinelle transforms vfio_msix_setup(),
incorrectly. I don't know what exactly "when strict" does, only that
it helps here.

The match of return is narrower than what I want, but I can't figure
out how to express "return where the operand doesn't use @err". For
an example where it's too narrow, see vfio_intx_enable().

Silently fails to convert hw/arm/armsse.c, because Coccinelle gets
confused by ARMSSE being used both as typedef and function-like macro
there. Converted manually.

Line breaks tidied up manually. One nested declaration of @local_err
deleted manually. Preexisting unwanted blank line dropped in
hw/riscv/sifive_e.c.

qom: Drop parameter @errp of object_property_add() & friends

The only way object_property_add() can fail is when a property with
the same name already exists. Since our property names are all
hardcoded, failure is a programming error, and the appropriate way to
handle it is passing &error_abort.

Same for its variants, except for object_property_add_child(), which
additionally fails when the child already has a parent. Parentage is
also under program control, so this is a programming error, too.

We have a bit over 500 callers. Almost half of them pass
&error_abort, slightly fewer ignore errors, one test case handles
errors, and the remaining few callers pass them to their own callers.

The previous few commits demonstrated once again that ignoring
programming errors is a bad idea.

Of the few ones that pass on errors, several violate the Error API.
The Error ** argument must be NULL, &error_abort, &error_fatal, or a
pointer to a variable containing NULL. Passing an argument of the
latter kind twice without clearing it in between is wrong: if the
first call sets an error, it no longer points to NULL for the second
call. ich9_pm_add_properties(), sparc32_ledma_realize(),
sparc32_dma_realize(), xilinx_axidma_realize(), xilinx_enet_realize()
are wrong that way.

When the one appropriate choice of argument is &error_abort, letting
users pick the argument is a bad idea.

Drop parameter @errp and assert the preconditions instead.

There's one exception to "duplicate property name is a programming
error": the way object_property_add() implements the magic (and
undocumented) "automatic arrayification". Don't drop @errp there.
Instead, rename object_property_add() to object_property_try_add(),
and add the obvious wrapper object_property_add().

qom: Drop object_property_set_description() parameter @errp

object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description() fail only when property @name
is not found.

There are 85 calls of object_property_set_description() and
object_class_property_set_description(). None of them can fail:

* 84 immediately follow the creation of the property.

* The one in spapr_rng_instance_init() refers to a property created in
spapr_rng_class_init(), from spapr_rng_properties[].

Every one of them still gets to decide what to pass for @errp.

51 calls pass &error_abort, 32 calls pass NULL, one receives the error
and propagates it to &error_abort, and one propagates it to
&error_fatal. I'm actually surprised none of them violates the Error
API.

What are we gaining by letting callers handle the "property not found"
error? Use when the property is not known to exist is simpler: you
don't have to guard the call with a check. We haven't found such a
use in 5+ years. Until we do, let's make life a bit simpler and drop
the @errp parameter.

target/ppc: Allow cpu compatiblity checks based on type, not instance

ppc_check_compat() is used in a number of places to check if a cpu object
supports a certain compatiblity mode, subject to various constraints.

It takes a PowerPCCPU *, however it really only depends on the cpu's class.
We have upcoming cases where it would be useful to make compatibility
checks before we fully instantiate the cpu objects.

ppc_type_check_compat() will now make an equivalent check, but based on a
CPU's QOM typename instead of an instantiated CPU object.

We make use of the new interface in several places in spapr, where we're
essentially making a global check, rather than one specific to a particular
cpu. This avoids some ugly uses of first_cpu to grab a "representative"
instance.

Another pull request for ppc related patches. The most interesting
thing here is the new capabilities framework for the pseries machine
type. This gives us better handling of several existing
incompatibilities between TCG, PR and HV KVM, as well as new ones that
arise with POWER9. Further, it will allow reasonable handling of the
advertisement of features necessary to mitigate the recent CVEs
(Spectre and Meltdown).

In addition there's:
* Improvide handling of different "vsmt" modes
* Significant enhancements to the "pnv" machine type
* Assorted other bugfixes

ppc: fix setting of compat mode

While trying to make KVM PR usable again, commit 5dfaa532ae introduced a
regression: the current compat_pvr value is passed to KVM instead of the
new one. This means

ppc: fix setting of compat mode

While trying to make KVM PR usable again, commit 5dfaa532ae introduced a
regression: the current compat_pvr value is passed to KVM instead of the
new one. This means that we always pass 0 instead of the max-cpu-compat
PVR during the initial machine reset. And at CAS time, we either pass
the PVR from the command line or even don't call kvmppc_set_compat() at
all, ie, the PCR will not be set as expected.

For example if we start a big endian fedora26 guest in power7 compat
mode on a POWER8 host, we get this in the guest:

$ cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
cpu : POWER7 (architected), altivec supported
clock : 4024.000000MHz
revision : 2.0 (pvr 004d 0200)

timebase : 512000000
platform : pSeries
model : IBM pSeries (emulated by qemu)
machine : CHRP IBM pSeries (emulated by qemu)
MMU : Hash

but the guest can still execute POWER8 instructions, and the following
program succeeds:

int main()
{
asm("vncipher 0,0,0"); // ISA 2.07 instruction
}

Let's pass the new compat_pvr to kvmppc_set_compat() and the program fails
with SIGILL as expected.
