To implement the -kernel, -initrd, and -append options, 4xx board emulation
must load the guest kernel as if firmware had loaded it. Where u-boot would be
the firmware, we must load the flat device tree into memory and set key fields
such as /chosen/bootargs.
This patch introduces a dependency on libfdt for flat device tree support.

glibc implements posix-aio as a thread pool and imposes a number of limitations.
1) it limits one request per-file descriptor. we hack around this by dup()'ing
file descriptors which is hideously ugly
2) it's impossible to add new interfaces and we need a vectored read/write
operation to properly support a zero-copy API.
What has been suggested to me by glibc folks, is to implement whatever new
interfaces we want and then it can eventually be proposed for standardization.
This requires that we implement our own posix-aio implementation though.
This patch implements posix-aio using pthreads. It immediately eliminates the
need for fd pooling.
It performs at least as well as the current posix-aio code (in some
circumstances, even better).

Prior to kvm-80, memory slot deletion was broken in the KVM kernel

This patch adds very basic KVM support. KVM is a kernel module for Linux that
allows userspace programs to make use of hardware virtualization support. It
current supports x86 hardware virtualization using Intel VT-x or AMD-V. It
also supports IA64 VT-i, PPC 440, and S390.
This patch only implements the bare minimum support to get a guest booting. It
has very little impact the rest of QEMU and attempts to integrate nicely with
the rest of QEMU.
Even though this implementation is basic, it is significantly faster than TCG.
Booting and shutting down a Linux guest:
w/TCG: 1:32.36 elapsed 84% CPU
w/KVM: 0:31.14 elapsed 59% CPU
Right now, KVM is disabled by default and must be explicitly enabled with
-enable-kvm. We can enable it by default later when we have had better
testing.

Replace signalfd with signal handler/pipe. There is no way to interrupt
the CPU execution loop when a file descriptor becomes readable. This
results in a large performance regression in sparc emulation during
bootup.
This patch switches us to signal handler/pipe which was originally
suggested by Ian Jackson. The signal handler lets us interrupt the
CPU emulation loop while the write to a pipe lets us avoid the
select/signal race condition.

This adds support for running the sparse checker during the build
process. Left it off by default for now, build becomes very noisy with
sparse checking turned on as it has to complain alot (partly even in the

This allows using a host's physical HCI as one of the HCIs attached

Be more friendly when signalfd() fails, and also add configure checks to detect
that syscall(SYS_signalfd) actually works. malc pointed out that some installs
do not have /usr/include/linux headers that are in sync with the glibc headers
so why SYS_signalfd is defined, it's #defined to _NR_signalfd which is not
defined in the /usr/include/linux header.
While this is a distro bug, it doesn't hurt to do a more thorough job in
detection.

__GLIBC_PREREQ is defined in such a way that the ! cannot be used in front of

OpenBSD doesn't use AIO so don't try to build compatfd when not using AIO.
Also make sure to call qemu_aio_init() from bdrv_init. Everything that uses
bdrv calls bdrv_init so it makes sense to init aio from there instead of
in every single tool.

Right now, the Windows build is broken because of NBD. Using a mingw32 cross
compiler is also badly broken.
This patch fixes the Windows build by stubbing out NBD support until someone
fixes it for Windows. It also santizing the mingw32 cross compiler support
by replacing the --enable-mingw32 option with a compiler check to determine
if we're on windows or not.
Also remove the weird SDL pseudo-detection for mingw32 using a cross compiler.
The hardcoded sdl-config name is seemly arbitrary. If you cross compiler SDL
correctly and modify your PATH variable appropriately, it will Just Work when
cross compiling.
The audio driver detection is also broken for cross compiling so you have to
specify the audio drivers explicitly for now.
