[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/3] pc: Small fixes for Intel HDA config space and PC_COMPAT_1_0

[Jan Kiszka]

Patch 1 is a repost, likely a harmless issue as no one should have used
QEMU 1.0 for such purposes that require compat migration (rather
qemu-kvm at that time).

Patch 2 prepares compat support for 2.1 machines and the last one fixes
the MSI capability address of intel-hda in backward-compatible way.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/3] pc: Fix disabling of vapic for compat PC models

[Jan Kiszka]

We used to be able to address both the QEMU and the KVM APIC via "apic".
This doesn't work anymore. So we need to use their parent class to turn
off the vapic on machines that should not expose them.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 3/3] hw/audio/intel-hda: Fix MSI capability address

[Jan Kiszka]

According to ICH9 spec, the MSI capability is located at 0x60. This is
important for guest drivers that do not parse the capability chain and
use absolute addresses instead.

If it's *really* identical to 2.1, are we going to add the
2.2 machine type to 2.1 as well, so that things that
have difficulty using different source and destination
machine types can migrate from 2.2 to 2.1?

Or am I missing the point and is the issue that 2.2
is actually different to 2.1, not in the machine
type definition, but in what is sent within the
migrated data? If so, a commit message to this
effect might be helpful.

See patch 3 for the (current) motivation of this patch. Maybe more will
come as 2.2 evolves.

OK so this is intended for 2.2?

In that case, how about creating a macro with type name,
and using that? This way things don't break if we rename
something again.

If yes, we should cc: qemu-stable.

Warnings don't help much in cases like this: "apic" still exists and has
the property, it's just not the device we want.  Macros aren't
foolproof, either.

You could use TYPE_APIC_COMMON here.  Including
"hw/i386/apic_internal.h" for it would be not so nice, though.

Lost track of this: was I supposed to provide anything different, or did
this just fall under the table?

I don't mind, but I wouldn't refuse if you want to take care of the issue.
