Note:
This patch reuses some code from SeaBIOS, which was originally under
LGPLv2 and then relicensed to GPLv3 or LGPLv3, in QEMU under GPLv2+. This
relicensing has been acked by all contributors that had contributed to the
code since the v2->v3 relicense. ACKs approving the v2+ relicensing are
listed below. The list might include ACKs from people not holding
copyright on any parts of the reused code, but it's better to err on the

When memory regions overlap, priority can be used to specify
which of them takes priority. By making the priority values signed
rather than unsigned, we make it more convenient to implement
a situation where one "background" region should appear only
where no other region exists: rather than having to explicitly
specify a high priority for all the other regions, we can let them take
the default (zero) priority and specify a negative priority for the
background region.

Currently, -smbios type=T,NAME=VAL,... adds one field (T,NAME) with
value VAL to fw_cfg for each unique NAME. If NAME occurs multiple
times, the last one's VAL is used (before the QemuOpts conversion, the
first one was used).
Multiple -smbios can add multiple fields with the same (T, NAME).
SeaBIOS reads all of them from fw_cfg, but uses only the first field
(T, NAME). The others are ignored.
"First one wins, subsequent ones get ignored silently" isn't nice. We
commonly let the last option win. Useful, because it lets you
-readconfig first, then selectively override with command line
options.
Clean up -smbios to work the common way. Accumulate the settings,
with later ones overwriting earlier ones. Put the result into fw_cfg
(no more useless duplicates).

The local spice renderer assumes the primary surface is located at the
start of the "ram" bar. This used to be a requirement in qxl hardware
revision 1. In revision 2+ this is relaxed. Nevertheless guest drivers
continued to use the traditional location, for historical and backward
compatibility reasons. The qxl kms driver doesn't though as it depends
on qxl revision 4+ anyway.
Result is that local rendering is hosed for recent linux guests, you'll
get pixel garbage with non-spice ui (gtk, sdl, vnc) and when doing
screendumps. Fix that by doing a proper mapping of the guest-specified
memory location.

A Malta board can support up to 2GiB of RAM. Since the unmapped kseg0/1
regions are only 512MiB large & the latter 256MiB of those are taken up
by the IO region, access to RAM beyond 256MiB must be done through a
mapped region. In the case of a Linux guest this means we need to use
highmem.
The mainline Linux kernel does not support highmem for Malta at this
time, however this can be tested using the linux-mti-3.8 kernel branch
available from:
git://git.linux-mips.org/pub/scm/linux-mti.git
You should be able to boot a Linux kernel built from the linux-mti-3.8
branch, with CONFIG_HIGHMEM enabled, using 2GiB RAM by passing "-m 2G"
to QEMU and appending the following kernel parameters:
mem=256m@0x0 mem=256m@0x90000000 mem=1536m@0x20000000
Note that the upper half of the physical address space of a Malta
mirrors the lower half (hence the 2GiB limit) except that the IO region
(0x10000000-0x1fffffff in the lower half) is not mirrored in the upper
half. That is, physical addresses 0x90000000-0x9fffffff access RAM
rather than the IO region, resulting in a physical address space
resembling the following:
0x00000000 -> 0x0fffffff RAM
0x10000000 -> 0x1fffffff I/O
0x20000000 -> 0x7fffffff RAM
0x80000000 -> 0x8fffffff RAM (mirror of 0x00000000 -> 0x0fffffff)
0x90000000 -> 0x9fffffff RAM
0xa0000000 -> 0xffffffff RAM (mirror of 0x20000000 -> 0x7fffffff)
The second mem parameter provided to the kernel above accesses the
second 256MiB of RAM through the upper half of the physical address
space, making use of the aliasing described above in order to avoid
the IO region and use the whole 2GiB RAM.
The memory setup may be seen as 'backwards' in this commit since the
'real' memory is mapped in the upper half of the physical address space
and the lower half contains the aliases. On real hardware it would be
typical to see the upper half of the physical address space as the alias
since the bus addresses generated match the lower half of the physical
address space. However since the memory accessible in the upper half of
the physical address space is uninterrupted by the IO region it is
easiest to map the RAM as a whole there, and functionally it makes no
difference to the target code.
Due to the requirements of accessing the second 256MiB of RAM through
a mapping to the upper half of the physical address space it is usual
for the bootloader to indicate a maximum of 256MiB memory to a kernel.
This allows kernels which do not support such access to boot on systems
with more than 256MiB of RAM. It is also the behaviour assumed by Linux.
QEMUs small generated bootloader is modified to provide this behaviour.
