qemu_rbd_get_specific_info() has at least two problems:
The first is that it issues a blocking rbd_read() call in order to probe
the encryption format for the image while querying the node. This means
that if the connection to the server goes down, not only I/O is stuck
(which is unavoidable), but query-names-block-nodes will actually make
the whole QEMU instance unresponsive. .bdrv_get_specific_info
implementations shouldn't perform blocking operations, but only return
what is already known.
The second is that the information returned isn't even correct. If the
image is already opened with encryption enabled at the RBD level, we'll
probe for "double encryption", i.e. if the encrypted data contains
another encryption header. If it doesn't (which is the normal case), we
won't return the encryption format. If it does, we return misleading
information because it looks like we're talking about the outer level
(the encryption format of the image itself) while the information is
about an encryption header in the guest data.
Fix this by storing the encryption format in BDRVRBDState when the image
is opened (and we do blocking operations anyway) and returning only the
stored information in qemu_rbd_get_specific_info().
The information we'll store is either the actual encryption format that
we enabled on the RBD level, or if the image is unencrypted, the result
of the same probing as we previously did when querying the node. Probing
image formats based on content that can be modified by the guest has
long been known as problematic, but as long as we only output it to the
user instead of making decisions based on it, it should be okay. It is
undoubtedly useful in the context of 'qemu-img info' when you're trying
to figure out which encryption options you have to use to open the
image successfully.

Using qom-list and qom-get to get all the nodes and property values in
a QOM tree can take multiple seconds because it requires 1000's of
individual QOM requests. Some managers fetch the entire tree or a
large subset of it when starting a new VM, and this cost is a
substantial fraction of start up time.
Define the qom-list-get command, which fetches all the properties and
values for a list of paths. This can be much faster than qom-list
plus qom-get. When getting an entire QOM tree, I measured a 10x
speedup in elapsed time.

Allow user to set a preferred scale (defaulting to 1) of the virtual
display. Along with zoom-to-fix=false, this would be helpful for users
running QEMU on hi-dpi host desktop to achieve pixel to pixel display --
e.g., if the scale factor of a user's host desktop is set to 200%, then
they can set a 0.5 scale for the virtual display to avoid magnification
that might cause blurriness.

Thanks to 72d277a7, 1ed2cb32, and others, EDID (Extended Display
Identification Data) is propagated by QEMU such that a virtual display
presents legitimate metadata (e.g., name, serial number, preferred
resolutions, etc.) to its connected guest.
This change adds the ability to specify the EDID name for a particular
virtio-vga display. Previously, every virtual display would have the same
name: "QEMU Monitor". Now, we can inject names of displays in order to test
guest behavior that is specific to display names. We provide the ability to
inject the display name from the frontend since this is guest visible
data. Furthermore, this makes it clear where N potential display outputs
would get their name from (which will be added in a future change).
Note that we have elected to use a struct here for output data for
extensibility - we intend to add per-output fields like resolution in a
future change.
It should be noted that EDID names longer than 12 bytes will be truncated
per spec (I think?).
Testing: verified that when I specified 2 outputs for a virtio-gpu with
edid_name set, the names matched those that I configured with my vnc
display.
-display vnc=localhost:0,id=aaa,display=vga,head=0 \
-display vnc=localhost:1,id=bbb,display=vga,head=1 \
-device '{"driver":"virtio-vga",
"max_outputs":2,
"id":"vga",

{
"name":"AAA"

Extend 'inhibit=on' setting with the option to specify a pinned XSK map
path along with a starting index (default 0) to push the created XSK
sockets into. Example usage:
# ./build/qemu-system-x86_64 [...] \
-netdev af-xdp,ifname=enp2s0f0np0,id=net0,mode=native,queues=2,start-queue=14,inhibit=on,map-path=/sys/fs/bpf/xsks_map,map-start-index=14 \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=net0 [...]
This is useful for the case where an existing XDP program with XSK map
is present on the AF_XDP supported phys device and the XSK map is not
yet populated. For example, the former could have been pre-loaded onto
the netdevice by a control plane, which later launches QEMU to populate
it with XSK sockets.
Normally, the main idea behind 'inhibit=on' is that the QEMU instance
doesn't need to have a lot of privileges to use the pre-loaded program
and the pre-created sockets, but this mentioned use-case here is different
where QEMU still needs privileges to create the sockets.
The 'map-start-index' parameter is optional and defaults to 0. It allows
flexible placement of the XSK sockets, and is up to the user to specify
when the XDP program with XSK map was already preloaded. In the simplest
case the queue-to-map-slot mapping is just 1:1 based on ctx->rx_queue_index
but the user might as well have a different scheme (or smaller map size,
e.g. ctx->rx_queue_index % max_size) to push the inbound traffic to one
of the XSK sockets.
Note that the bpf_xdp_query_id() is now only tested for 'inhibit=off'
since only in the latter case the libxdp takes care of installing the
XDP program which was installed based on the s->xdp_flags pointing to
either driver or skb mode. For 'inhibit=on' we don't make any assumptions
and neither go down the path of probing all possible options in which
way the user installed the XDP program.

In combination with using a throttle filter to enforce IO limits for
a guest device, knowing the 'file' child of a block device can be
useful. If the throttle filter is only intended for guest IO, block
jobs should not also be limited by the throttle filter, so the
block operations need to be done with the 'file' child of the top
throttle node as the target. In combination with mirroring, the name
of that child is not fixed.
Another scenario is when unplugging a guest device after mirroring
below a top throttle node, where the mirror target is added explicitly
via blockdev-add. After mirroring, the target becomes the new 'file'
child of the throttle node. For unplugging, both the top throttle node
and the mirror target need to be deleted, because only implicitly
added child nodes are deleted automatically, and the current 'file'
child of the throttle node was explicitly added (as the mirror
target).
In other scenarios, it could be useful to follow the backing chain.
Note that iotests 191 and 273 use _filter_img_info, so the 'children'
information is filtered out there.

The new qapidoc.py can generate "Returns" statements with type
information just fine, so we can remove it from the source where it
doesn't add anything particularly novel or helpful and just repeats the
type info.
This patch is fairly "gentle" and doesn't aggressively touch other
"Returns" lines that could be rephrased to omit repeating type
information; it only removes lines that appear appropriate to wholly
remove.
To help facilitate auto-generated placement, a few doc blocks have a
"TODO:" line inserted to help the placement algorithm differentiate the
introductory paragraph(s) from the rest of the documentation.
The auto-generated returns are in the exact same spot, except for
query-migrationthreads, query-machines, and
x-query-virtio-queue-element. These auto-generation moves to a better
spot.

Generated command documentation lacks information on return value in
several cases, e.g. query-tpm.
The obvious fix would be to require a Returns: section when a command
returns something.
However, note that many existing Returns: sections are pretty useless:
the description is basically the return type, which then gets rendered
like "Return: <Type> – <basically the return type>". This suggests
that a description is often not really necessary, and requiring one
isn't useful.
Instead, generate the obvious minimal thing when Returns: is absent:
"Return: <Type>".
This auto-generated Return documentation is placed is as follows:
1. If we have arguments, return goes right after them.
2. Else if we have errors, return goes right before them.
3. Else if we have features, return goes right before them.
4. Else return goes right after the intro
To facilitate this algorithm, a "TODO:" hack line is used to separate
the intro from the remainder of the documentation block in cases where
there are no other sections to separate the intro from e.g. examples and
additional detail meant to appear below the key sections of interest.

Remove the QAPI doc section heading syntax, use plain rST section
headings instead.
Tests and documentation are updated to match.
Interestingly, Plain rST headings work fine before this patch, except
for over- and underlining with '=', which the doc parser rejected as
invalid QAPI doc section heading in free-form comments.

This commit adds support for the vhost-user interface to the passt
network backend, enabling high-performance, accelerated networking for
guests using passt.
The passt backend can now operate in a vhost-user mode, where it
communicates with the guest's virtio-net device over a socket pair
using the vhost-user protocol. This offloads the datapath from the
main QEMU loop, significantly improving network performance.
When the vhost-user=on option is used with -netdev passt, the new
vhost initialization path is taken instead of the standard
stream-based connection.

This commit introduces support for passt as a new network backend.
passt is an unprivileged, user-mode networking solution that provides
connectivity for virtual machines by launching an external helper process.
The implementation reuses the generic stream data handling logic. It
launches the passt binary using GSubprocess, passing it a file
descriptor from a socketpair() for communication. QEMU connects to
the other end of the socket pair to establish the network data stream.
The PID of the passt daemon is tracked via a temporary file to
ensure it is terminated when QEMU exits.

Adds an IGVM loader to QEMU which processes a given IGVM file and
applies the directives within the file to the current guest
configuration.
The IGVM loader can be used to configure both confidential and
non-confidential guests. For confidential guests, the
ConfidentialGuestSupport object for the system is used to encrypt
memory, apply the initial CPU state and perform other confidential guest
operations.
The loader is configured via a new IgvmCfg QOM object which allows the
user to provide a path to the IGVM file to process.

Add the latency distribution too for blocktime, using order-of-two buckets.
It accounts for all the faults, from either vCPU or non-vCPU threads. With
prior rework, it's very easy to achieve by adding an array to account for
faults in each buckets.
Sample output for HMP (while for QMP it's simply an array):
Postcopy Latency Distribution:
[ 1 us - 2 us ]: 0
[ 2 us - 4 us ]: 0
[ 4 us - 8 us ]: 1
[ 8 us - 16 us ]: 2
[ 16 us - 32 us ]: 2
[ 32 us - 64 us ]: 3
[ 64 us - 128 us ]: 10169
[ 128 us - 256 us ]: 50151
[ 256 us - 512 us ]: 12876
[ 512 us - 1 ms ]: 97
[ 1 ms - 2 ms ]: 42
[ 2 ms - 4 ms ]: 44
[ 4 ms - 8 ms ]: 93
[ 8 ms - 16 ms ]: 138
[ 16 ms - 32 ms ]: 0
[ 32 ms - 65 ms ]: 0
[ 65 ms - 131 ms ]: 0
[ 131 ms - 262 ms ]: 0

When used to report page fault latencies, the blocktime feature can be
almost useless when KVM async page fault is enabled, because in most cases
such remote fault will kickoff async page faults, then it's not trackable
from blocktime layer.
After all these recent rewrites to blocktime layer, it's finally so easy to
also support tracking non-vCPU faults. It'll be even faster if we could
always index fault records with TIDs, unfortunately we need to maintain the
blocktime API which report things in vCPU indexes.
Of course this can work not only for kworkers, but also any guest accesses
that may reach a missing page, for example, very likely when in the QEMU
main thread too (and all other threads whenever applicable).
In this case, we don't care about "how long the threads are blocked", but
we only care about "how long the fault will be resolved".

Blocktime so far only cares about the time one vcpu (or the whole system)
got blocked. It would be also be helpful if it can also report the latency
of page requests, which could be very sensitive during postcopy.
Blocktime itself is sometimes not very important, especially when one
thinks about KVM async PF support, which means vCPUs are literally almost
not blocked at all because the guest OS is smart enough to switch to
another task when a remote fault is needed.
However, latency is still sensitive and important because even if the guest
vCPU is running on threads that do not need a remote fault, the workload
that accesses some missing page is still affected.
Add two entries to the report, showing how long it takes to resolve a
remote fault. Mention in the QAPI doc that this is not the real average
fault latency, but only the ones that was requested for a remote fault.
Unwrap get_vcpu_blocktime_list() so we don't need to walk the list twice,
meanwhile add the entry checks in qtests for all postcopy tests.
