The direction for this work has been set in the discussion thread:
"About creating machines on the command line" in January/February 2021:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-01/msg01839.html
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2021-02/msg01070.html
To customize a machine via QMP we need the ability to stop QEMU at a specific
machine initialization phase.
Currently, machine initialization phases are:
1) no-machine: machine does not exist yet (current_machine == NULL)
2) machine-created: machine exists, but its accelerator does not
(current_machine->accelerator == NULL)
3) accel-created: machine's accelerator is configured
(current_machine->accelerator != NULL), but machine class's init() has not
been called (no properties validated, machine_init_done notifiers not
registered, no sysbus, etc.)
4) initialized: machine class's init() has been called, thus machine properties
are validated, machine_init_done notifiers registered, sysbus realized, etc.
Devices added at this phase are considered to be cold-plugged.
5) ready: machine_init_done notifiers are called, then QEMU is ready to start
CPUs. Devices added at this phase are considered to be hot-plugged.
QEMU can be stopped today using the -preconfig CLI option at phase 3
(accel-created). This option was introduced to enable the QMP configuration of
parameters that affect the machine initialization. We cannot add devices at
this point because the machine class's init() has not been called, thus sysbus
does not exist yet (a device cannot be added because there is no bus to attach
it to).
QEMU can be also stopped using the -S CLI option at the machine ready phase.
However, it is too late to add devices at this phase because the machine is
already configured, and any devices added at this point are considered to be
hot-plugged.
Since the existing -preconfig CLI option stops QEMU too early, and the -S option
stops too late, we need a way to stop QEMU in between (after the machine is
initialized and before it becomes ready).
We propose to add QMP commands to step through machine phases starting from the
initial CLI's '-preconfig' early stop point. With this addition, we may now
execute QMP commands at any machine phase.
The 'next-machine-phase' command would trigger QEMU to execute initialization
steps that are needed to enter the next phase. If it's more convenient to jump
to an initialization phase than to single-step through phases, the
'advance-machine-phase' command should be used instead of 'next-machine-phase'.
Additionally, we propose to add the command to query the current machine phase,
namely 'query-machine-phase'.
With this patch it would be possible to add devices via QMP. For example,
by running QEMU with:
$ qemu-system-riscv32 \
-M sifive_dt \
-qmp unix:./qmp-sock,server \
-preconfig \
...
and scripts/qmp/qmp-shell as the QMP client:
$ qemu/scripts/qmp/qmp-shell ./qmp-sock
Welcome to the QMP low-level shell!
Connected to QEMU 6.0.0
(QEMU) query-machine-phase
{"return": {"phase": "accel-created"}}
(QEMU) next-machine-phase
{"return": {}}
(QEMU) query-machine-phase
{"return": {"phase": "initialized"}}
(QEMU) device_add driver=...
{"return": {}}
(QEMU) next-machine-phase
{"return": {}}
(QEMU) query-machine-phase
{"return": {"phase": "ready"}}
Note that with the introduced changes, devices can still be added via CLI, i.e.
we support a mixed configuration approach (CLI, QMP, or CLI/QMP). Any device
specified via CLI will be added before QEMU waits for the QMP configuration
in the machine 'initialized' phase.

In addition to the existing preconfig approach, which allows configuring
the machine via QMP before the machine is initialized, we need the ability
to configure the machine right after it's initialized. This patch will
enable doing that in a scalable fashion as follows.
The basic idea is to group machine initialization steps into chunks
that need to be executed to advance machine initialization from one
phase to the next one. Then, we add a finer control to allow executing
only a chunk, i.e. to advance machine initialization to the next phase.
Between the phases, we would configure the machine properties via QMP,
add devices, etc. (depends on the phase). Advancing the machine to the
next initialization phase would also be controllable via a QMP command.
For example, the machine configuration could look like this:
1) Run QEMU with existing -preconfig command line option (this will
cause QEMU to wait before the machine is initialized)
Then, using QMP commands from a client:
2) Perform configuration that needs to be done before the machine
is initialized
3) Advance machine initialization phase to the next (the
'next-machine-phase' command to be added)
4) Perform configuration that needs to be done after the machine
is initialized
5) 'next-machine-phase' (same as in 3), etc.
Available QMP commands will be specific to each phase, but the command
'next-machine-phase' will be common. In the implementation of the
'next-machine-phase' command, we will call qemu_machine_enter_phase
function introduced in this patch.
Function qemu_machine_enter_phase introduced here allows advancing
the machine to the target phase. For the single-stepping configuration
described above, the target phase would be the current machine
phase + 1 (assuming some sanity checks on top).
When this function is called for the PHASE_MACHINE_READY target phase
(the final phase) it implements the same functionality as
qmp_x_exit_preconfig before this patch. In other words, the body of
this function implements the same initialization steps as before, but
just groups them into chunks (if branches) and allows stepping through
machine init phases.
For now, the relevant target machine phases are only
PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED and PHASE_MACHINE_READY, but the approach
allows to easily add more or split existing phases if needed.

Once we define MachineInitPhase in qapi, the generated enumeration
constants will be prefixed with the MACHINE_INIT_PHASE_.
We need to define the MachineInitPhase enum in qapi in order to
add the QMP command that will query current machine init phase.
Since in the existing definition of enum MachineInitPhase the
enumeration constants are prefixed with PHASE_, there will be a
massive find/replace to rename the existing enum constants.
We'll do this in 2 phases:
1) hide explicit use of PHASE_ prefixed enums by replacing
phase_check(PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED) -> machine_is_initialized()
phase_check(PHASE_MACHINE_READY) -> machine_is_ready()
2) rename enums
Once 1) and 2) are done MachineInitPhase enum will be generated.

This command will be used to control via QMP the advancing of machine
through initialization phases. The feature is needed to enable the
machine configuration via QMP.
The command triggers QEMU to advance the machine to the next init phase,
i.e. to execute initialization steps required to enter the next phase.
The command is used in combination with -preconfig command line option.
Note: advancing the machine to the final phase has the same effect as
executing 'x-exit-preconfig' command.

The command takes the target initialization phase as the argument
and triggers QEMU to advance the machine to the target phase (i.e.
execute all initialization steps required to enter the target phase).
This command would be used as an alternative to 'next-machine-phase'
if it's more convenient to jump to a target initialization phase than
to single-step through phases.
The command is used in combination with the -preconfig CLI option.
Note: advancing the machine to the 'ready' phase has the same effect as
executing the 'x-exit-preconfig' command when the machine is in
'accel-created' phase.

The existing code had to be restructured to make room for adding
checks that are specific to the machine phases.
The fix is related to the way that commands with the 'allow-preconfig'
option are treated.
Commands labelled with the 'allow-preconfig' option were meant to be allowed
during the 'preconfig' state, i.e. before the machine is initialized.
The equivalent of 'preconfig' state (after its removal) is machine init
phase MACHINE_INIT_PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED. Therefore, commands with
'allow-preconfig' option should be allowed to run while the machine is
in MACHINE_INIT_PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED phase.
Before this patch, those commands were allowed to run if the machine is
not ready, which includes three more phases besides the accel-created
phase. Since there were no means to enter other phases via QMP, the
implementation was fine. However, with the introduction of
'next-machine-phase' and 'advance-machine-phase' commands, one could
enter machine 'initialized' phase and still have available 'preconfig'
commands, which is incorrect.
This patch makes available 'allow-preconfig' commands only when they're
needed - before the machine is initialized, in the accel-created phase.
To enable a command after the machine gets initialized and before it
becomes ready, one should use 'allow-init-config' option that will be
introduced in the following patch.

The following commands are allowed to execute during the machine
'initialized' phase (enabled with 'allow-init-config' option):
1) query-machine-phase
2) next-machine-phase
3) advance-machine-phase
3) device_add
Note: for device_add command in qdev.json adding the 'allow-init-config'
option has no effect because the command appears to bypass QAPI (see
TODO at qapi/qdev.json:61). The option is added there solely to document
the intent.
For the same reason, the flags have to be explicitly set in
monitor_init_qmp_commands() when the device_add command is registered.

There aren't many commands that are valid only for the accel created or
machine initialized phase. I think adding allow-init-config is more
churn than keeping only allow-preconfig, and calling phase_check in the
individual commands. (Or even better, in the internal APIs that they
call, so that QMP is completely oblivious to phases and just gets the
Error* back).
In other words, allow-preconfig is there because there are many commands
that are allowed only after the machine-ready phase, but anything in the
middle can be handled just fine from C code.

This command is a good idea, and we can in fact even include it already

Is it so much churn to just rename everything to MACHINE_INIT_PHASE_*
and keep phase_check() as is? Or is it because the QAPI-generated names
are quite long?

Hi Mirela, this is very interesting!
It's unfortunate that I completely missed the discussions in
January/February. You might have noticed that in the 5.2/6.0 timeframe
I worked on cleaning up the machine initialization phases and qemu_init.
The idea behind the cleanup was to identify clearly the steps from one
phase to the next. I am very happy that you are already benefitting
from that work in this series and you were able to make a prototype with
so little code.
My plan was a bit more ambitious though :) and it is laid out at
https://wiki.qemu.org/User:Paolo_Bonzini/Machine_init_sequence.
My plan was to have completely different binaries than the current
qemu-system-*. These would only have a handful of command line options
(such as -name, -sandbox, -trace, -L) and would open a QMP connection on
stdio.
All other command line option would be either considered legacy or
adjusted to be part of two new QMP commands, machine-set and accel-set,
which would advance through the phases like this:
PHASE_NO_MACHINE
-> machine-set -> PHASE_MACHINE_CREATED ->
-> accel-set -> PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED -> PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED ->
-> finish-machine-init -> PHASE_MACHINE_READY
-> cont
I think this idea would work well with your plan below, because the
preconfiguration that you need to do happens mostly at
PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED.
Of course, the disadvantage of my approach is that, in the initial
version, a lot of capabilities of QEMU are not available (especially
with respect to the UI, since there's no "display-add" command).
However, the basic implementation of machine-set and accel-set should
not really be *that* much more work, and it should be doable in parallel
with the conversion efforts for those options. For example, today I
posted a series that maps -smp to -M (and then, SMP configuration would
automatically become available in machine-set).
I have placed the skeleton of the work I was doing at
https://gitlab.com/bonzini/qemu/ in the branch qemu-qmp-targets. You
can see a sample execution at
https://asciinema.org/a/TXMX8EZh8Md0fZnuE7uhfv6cO. I have not touched
some of the patches in a long time, but I plan to give them a quick test
tomorrow. Starting from the code in that branch, it should not be hard
to implement the machine-set and accel-set commands in the same fashion
as QEMU 5.2's implementation of object-add.
Thanks for posting these patches, I have started a light review of them.
Paolo

I was really happy to see your changes in 6.0, they simplified the
implementation a lot. It looked like you're up to something bigger, and
I'm glad that we can sync up now.

With our approach, transitioning to the QMP configuration suppose to
happen gradually, i.e. we still specify some configuration options via
command line. For your approach to be applicable to our use case we
would at least need a QMP equivalent for the following:
qemu-system-riscv64 \
-M sifive_dt \
-cpu
rv64,i=true,g=false,m=true,a=true,f=true,d=true,c=true,s=false,u=false,x-b=true,pmp=true,mmu=false,num-pmp-regions=8
\
-smp 1 \
-device ...
AFAIU from the materials you shared, we would need to add -cpu and
-device, but I don't see any reason why we wouldn't do this.

Ok, please let me know once you test, then I would run your code and
play with it to better understand what needs to be done. Then I might
come back with a couple of questions, so that we align on the TODOs. Is
that ok with you?
Btw, when (in which version) did you plan to integrate the qemu-qmp-*
support? I guess once machine-set/accel-set is implemented, but maybe
I'm wrong...

If we would add the support for our use case to your approach, then this
series would likely be split into a couple of patches that are
applicable and the rest that is obsolete.
In summary, we believe it would be great to join efforts, please let us
know how can we help.

To summarize, 'allow-preconfig' specifies whether a command is allowed
to run before the machine is ready, so any command that should be
allowed to run at phase < 'machine-ready' must have this flag set. For
those commands, one should check the current machine phase in the
implementation of the command to determine whether the command should
run or not, and return an error if not. Ok, that's fine.

It's easier to just rename everything to MACHINE_INIT_PHASE_* :) I
believed it was better to first hide enums, and thus avoid the need for
such a massive find&replace in future. The names were also quite long,
required additional line breaks...
If this is too much churn I can squash commits. When squashed, I don't
see the big difference between just renaming and this approach, pretty
much the same lines are modified. I believed it was easier to review
without squash.
However, if you believe it should rather be just renamed I can do so.

-cpu is indeed the big one that I had not looked at so far, while
-device should be mostly covered by the existing device_add command.
One possibility for -cpu is to make it an argument of machine-set too.
For example the above would be
{ 'execute': 'machine-set', arguments: {
'type': 'sifive_dt',
'smp': { 'cpus': 1 },
'cpu': { 'model': 'rv64', 'i': true, 'g': false, ... }
}

Yes, of course. I pushed something that at least compiles and passes a
basic smoke test.

Well, the right answer is "when somebody needs it". The things that I
was mostly interested in (e.g. compound properties for machines, such as
smp in the example above) were all enablers for qemu-qmp-* but I was not
really interested in the new binaries. I did the qemu-qmp-* patches
mostly to validate that the 5.2/6.0 refactoring of preconfig was going
in the right direction.
However, if there is indeed somebody that needs it I'll contribute where
our interests overlap. In particular I can take care of converting the
command line options to properties.

CPUs are a little complex because they have association with both machine
types and accelerator backends. You have 'accel-set' being issued after
'machine-set', but the 'host' CPU model is only valid if you have set
the KVM accelerator, not TCG.
It is desirable that you get an error report about bad CPU at the time
you specify the CPU config, rather than have that error delayed to when
a later command runs and invalidates your CPU choice.
This is a long winded way of saying either 'accel-set' should be
run before 'machine-set', or 'cpu' would have to be set as its own
command or as part of 'accel-set'.
My gut feeling though is accel-set would be more logical being done
first, as that also influences the set of features available in other
areas of QEMU configuration. Was there a reason you listed it after
machine-set ?

Daniel

That was also my initial gut feeling, but actually right now the machine
influences the accelerator more than the other way round. For example the
initialization of the accelerator takes a machine so that for example on
x86 the per-architecture KVM knows whether to set up SMM. Also different
machines could use different modes for KVM (HV vs PR for ppc), and some
machines may not be virtualizable at all so they require TCG.
The host CPU these days is really a virtualization-only synonym for -cpu
max, which works for TCG as well. But you're right that x86 CPU flags are
dictated by the accelerator rather than the machine, so specifying it in
machine-set would be clumsy. On the other hand on ARM it's a bit of both:
for KVM it's basically always -cpu host so the accelerator is important;
but some machines may have an M profile CPU and some may have an A.
I don't have the sources at hand to check in which phase CPUs are created,
but it's definitely after ACCEL_CREATED. Adding a third command
cpu-model-set is probably the easiest way to proceed.

I am just not sure it's such an advantage to replace phase_check with
separate functions. The rename is a constraint of QAPI, so we have to
live with the long names.

I think this command is preferable, not just because it is more
convenient if you don't have anything to do in some phase, but also
because it is more explicit and doesn't change its behaviour depending
on the current state.
We probably need to expect that this is a command that might often be
used in quickly hacked up shell scripts, which are error prone (Did I
really count the number of 'next-machine-phase' command right? Which
phase are we switching to again in this line?) and may lack proper error
handling, so the least amount of implicit magic will make sure that
users don't get more surprises than necessary.

Another option would be making it set-machine-phase, which doesn't fail
if you're setting the phase that you're already in. It would only fail
if you're trying to go backwards. But this is a minor detail.

I worry that this is exposing an internal QEMU implementation detail.
If apps rely on a particular set of phases existing, and running in
particular order, it could easily hobble our ability to refactor
QEMU's startup procedure to cope with new requirements in future.
I don't even much like the existing "pre-config" concept we have
for this same reason, and this is adding many more phases.
I think we'd be better off trying to make it possible for the mgmt
app to just provide all the config at once and let QEMU figure our
the phases in which it then instantiates stuff, so we can freedom
to change our minds at any time.
Regards,
Daniel

Is machine-set one big command, or a sequence of commands, where each
command configures just one thing?
Same for accel-set.
Permit me to go off on a tangent: how much and what kind of magic do we
want in the initialization sequence?
The existing order is a confusing mess grown out of a half-hearted
attempt to make things just work. We've talked about it a few times,
e.g. here:
Message-ID: <87poomg77m.fsf@dusky.pond.sub.org>
https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2016-09/msg00163.html
Are you aiming for "leave ordering to the user", or for "do the right
thing" (the user's order doesn't matter)", or for "neither; confusing
messes are fun"?
Another tangent:
1. A command line option is like a QMP command that returns nothing.
Generating CLI options from a QAPI schema is no harder than generating
QMP commands, it's just work.
2. A configuration file is like a command line, only easier to work with
when configuration becomes non-trivial. Generating configuration file
language from a QAPI schema is no harder than generating QMP commands /
CLI options, it's just work.
3. QMP is strictly more powerful than CLI or comfiguration file. It's
also less convenient for ad hoc use by humans: compare -readconfig
vm123.cfg to feeding the equivalent QMP commands with socat.
4. We'll see whether the convenience for humans can motivate us to put
in the work.

I cc-ed Igor because he worked on preconfig support.

My understanding is that an equivalent of previously supported
'preconfig' state is PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED, from the perspective of the
QMP configuration that Igor implemented. In other words, I believe that
when -preconfig CLI option was passed, QEMU was waiting for the QMP
configuration in PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED phase. Now, if accel-set advances
the machine directly to PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED, there will be no
chance to configure what Igor did with -preconfig.
Is this something you don't want to support anymore, or it can be
configured in another way? Or is this something that we haven't thought
of yet, but we should?
Another point I'm trying to make here - sooner or later I believe we
will run again into the issue similar to the one described above. I
truly believe that the commands you proposed (machine-set and accel-set)
should be kept as is, except that they wouldn't automatically advance
the machine initialization phase. I think the best approach would be to
combine your proposal with mine: the machine-set and accel-set commands
would configure stuff as you proposed, but there will be separate
commands to advance machine phases (next-machine-phase and
target/set-machine-phase). I also believe such a separation would be
extremely important for troubleshooting configurations.
Btw, we already have such a separation because we will reuse device_add
command, that only does the configuration. I believe it will be much
cleaner and flexible for future development to separate QMP commands
into 1) those that configure stuff, and 2) those that control advancing
of the machine init phases.
Moreover, once it turns out that a command receives too many arguments
and should be split into few, it will be easier to do so if a single
command did not include both configuration and control-flow. Similar
holds for adding new commands into the flow.
Please let me know what you think about the proposal.

Right, that was only NUMA. I have to check, but I think it can be moved
to PHASE_MACHINE_CREATED.
Apart from that, if we add a third command for the CPU model, that third
command would run from PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED so the pre-existing preconfig
state would be accessible.

They would be almost 1:1 mappings with -M and -accel. If we add a third
command for the CPU model, machine-set and accel-set would be basically
as big as device_add or object-add.
So the full flow would be
PHASE_NO_MACHINE
-> machine-set -> PHASE_MACHINE_CREATED ->
-> accel-set -> PHASE_ACCEL_CREATED ->
-> cpu-model-set -> PHASE_MACHINE_INITIALIZED ->
-> device_add...
-> finish-machine-init -> PHASE_MACHINE_READY
-> cont

No magic at all, because the QMP configuration would be entirely
-nodefaults. Default devices, for boards that need them, can be created
by setting properties such as serial0, netdev0 in machine-set (and in no
other way).

a naive question,
why not ditch -cpu completely and instantiate CPUs with
device_add cpu-foo,flagX=on/off
the former is just a kluge for making CLI based -smp initial_nr_cpu/-cpu foo, work.
I'd move that logic to CLI compat wrapper translating that to a series of device_add calls
for QMP based QEMU.
Also I maybe wrong, but I thought that -cpu nowadays does nothing except of translating
legacy cpu model name to cpu-type and flags to a bunch of '-global', which are applied
automatically when CPUa are created at board_init() time or later on when device_add is used.

Dependency for NUMA were:
1: -smp/-cpu being parsed before set_numa_options QMP command is called
it's necessary to for machine being able to provide topology for
given -smp combination.
-cpu is not must have dependency (currently), it was just conveniently
available when building topology in possible_cpu_arch_ids(), setting
cpu-type there could be deffered to the later time (actual user for
CPU type is QMP command query-hotpluggable-cpus, so that user could know
what cpu type and what properties to use with device_add at hot-add time).
2: memory backends depended on accel (TCG)
(I think, Paolo has removed that dependency)

while writing my another reply to this thread, I realized we might need cpu type
at least for 3 reasons:
1. It would be hard/impossible to convert every board to create CPUs with
device_add after board_init(), many boards depend on CPUs being available
at that time to wire up another devices created at the same time.
2. If we can postpone cpu creation after board_init() time, user would need
query-hotpluggable-cpus command to get which CPU type and topology properties
to use with device_add. (that's what libvirt uses curently)
3. Recent work on ECPY cpu topology issues, showed that the topology, that board
generates from -smp might depends on CPU type (we got rid of that eventually but
I wouldn't rule out possibility in the future).
What I would remove from -cpu behavior is resolving cpu-model to CPU type.
QMP command would use only cpu-type so it would be consistent with device_add
which already uses cpu-type, which user gets from query-hotpluggble-cpus.
All legacy cpu-model conversion can be pushed out into CLI compat binary or
up the stack to keep existing deployments running, and new VMs can use cpu types
directly.
Question is how user can query available (for given target/machine/accel) CPU types
using QMP, is there such command already?

You can put 6.1 instead of #FIXME if that's what you're aiming for
(but then you may have to adjust it to 6.2 if it misses soft
freeze...)

As an API, this command seems awkward. How do I query what phase I'm
currently in? How many times do I have to call it? Do we anticipate
the number of times I need to call it to change in future qemu
releases?
Would it be better to require me to pass an enum parameter stating the
phase I intend to move into (and error out if that is not actually the
next phase), where the introspection of the enum tells me how many
times to use this command? Should this command return a struct
containing "new-state":"enum-value" telling me what state I moved to
on success?

Indeed this has been changed in the last version of the proposal. There
will be an x-machine-init command and the existing x-exit-preconfig.

You can also use 'prefix':'...' as part of the QAPI 'enum' declaration
to pick a shorter name for the C enum (see for example BlkdebugEvent
in block-core.json).
