[PATCH 0/3] hw/acpi, arm: Provide and use acpi_ghes_present()

[PATCH 0/3] hw/acpi, arm: Provide and use acpi_ghes_present()

[Peter Maydell]

Currently the Arm code in target/arm/kvm64.c which decides whether
it should report memory errors via the ACPI GHES table works
only with the 'virt' board; in fact it won't even link if the
virt board is configured out of the QEMU binary.

This patchset replaces those virt-specific checks with a single
new acpi_ghes_present() function which tells the caller whether
it's OK to report errors by calling acpi_ghes_record_errors().
The mechanism we use is a simple flag in the AcpiGhesState
which gets sent if the board calls acpi_ghes_add_fw_cfg() to
set up the GHES stuff.

We need also to provide 'stub' versions of both acpi_ghes_present()
and acpi_ghes_record_errors() so that we can link even if no
board using ACPI GHES has been configured into the binary.

(You can test that this series is necessary by commenting out the
'CONFIG_ARM_VIRT=y' line in default-configs/devices/arm-softmmu.mak
and building with KVM enabled on an AArch64 host.)

I have tested with 'make' and 'make check' but nothing beyond
that; testing by somebody who has a guest setup that uses GHES
would be helpful just to check I haven't accidentally broken it.

thanks

[PATCH 1/3] hw/acpi: Provide stub version of acpi_ghes_record_errors()

[Peter Maydell]

Generic code in target/arm wants to call acpi_ghes_record_errors();
provide a stub version so that we don't fail to link when
CONFIG_ACPI_APEI is not set. This requires us to add a new
ghes-stub.c file to contain it and the meson.build mechanics
to use it when appropriate.

[PATCH 2/3] hw/acpi: Provide function acpi_ghes_present()

[Peter Maydell]

Allow code elsewhere in the system to check whether the ACPI GHES
table is present, so it can determine whether it is OK to try to
record an error by calling acpi_ghes_record_errors().

(We don't need to migrate the new 'present' field in AcpiGhesState,
because it is set once at system initialization and doesn't change.)

[PATCH 3/3] target/arm: Use acpi_ghes_present() to see if we report ACPI memory errors

[Peter Maydell]

The virt_is_acpi_enabled() function is specific to the virt board, as
is the check for its 'ras' property.  Use the new acpi_ghes_present()
function to check whether we should report memory errors via
acpi_ghes_record_errors().

This avoids a link error if QEMU was built without support for the
virt board, and provides a mechanism that can be used by any future
board models that want to add ACPI memory error reporting support
(they only need to call acpi_ghes_add_fw_cfg()).

Gosh that last line is confusing.  I see it's documented in build-system.rst, 
but yeesh.

Thanks for the review; I've applied this to target-arm.next.

Yeah, it's vestigial of the makefiles and I should remove it.

That said, here:

Thanks for finding this bug -- I have requeued the patches
to target-arm.next with the "files" added.
