Let's allow a minimum block size of 1 MiB in all configurations. Select
the default block size based on
- The page size of the memory backend.
- The THP size if the memory backend size corresponds to the real host
page size.
- The global minimum of 1 MiB.
and warn if something smaller is configured by the user.
VIRTIO_MEM only supports Linux (depends on LINUX), so we can probe the
THP size unconditionally.
For now we only support virtio-mem on x86-64 - there isn't a user-visible
change (x86-64 only supports 2 MiB THP on the PMD level) - the default
was, and will be 2 MiB.
If we ever have THP on the PUD level (e.g., 1 GiB THP on x86-64), we
expect it to be more transparent - e.g., to only optimize fully populated
ranges unless explicitly told /configured otherwise (in contrast to PMD
THP).

The spec states:
"The device MUST set addr, region_size, usable_region_size, plugged_size,
requested_size to multiples of block_size."
With block sizes > 256MB, we currently wouldn't guarantee that for the
usable_region_size.
Note that we cannot exceed the region_size, as we already enforce the
alignment there properly.

The spec states:
"The device MUST set addr, region_size, usable_region_size, plugged_size,
requested_size to multiples of block_size."
In some cases, we currently don't guarantee that for "addr": For example,
when starting a VM with 4 GiB boot memory and a virtio-mem device with a
block size of 2 GiB, "memaddr"/"addr" will be auto-assigned to
0x140000000 (5 GiB).
We'll try to improve auto-assignment for memory devices next, to avoid
bailing out in case memory device code selects a bad address.
Note: The Linux driver doesn't support such big block sizes yet.

If error occurs while processing the virtio request we should call
'virtqueue_detach_element' to detach the element from the virtqueue
before free the elem.

This likely affects other, less popular host architectures as well.
Less common host architectures under linux get QEMU_VMALLOC_ALIGN (from
which VIRTIO_MEM_MIN_BLOCK_SIZE is derived) define to a variable of
type uintptr, which isn't compatible with the format specifier used to
print a user message. Since this particular usage of the underlying data
seems unique to this file, the simple fix is to just cast
QEMU_VMALLOC_ALIGN to uint32_t, which corresponds to the format specifier
used.

object_get_canonical_path_component() returns a malloced copy of a
property name on success, null on failure.
19 of its 25 callers immediately free the returned copy.
Change object_get_canonical_path_component() to return the property
name directly. Since modifying the name would be wrong, adjust the
return type to const char *.
Drop the free from the 19 callers become simpler, add the g_strdup()
to the other six.

The content of unplugged memory is undefined and should not be migrated,
ever. Exclude all unplugged memory during precopy using the precopy notifier
infrastructure introduced for free page hinting in virtio-balloon.
Unplugged memory is marked as "not dirty", meaning it won't be
considered for migration.

a temporary structure and validate that the properties didn't change.

We want to send qapi events in case the size of a virtio-mem device
changes. This allows upper layers to always know how much memory is
actually currently consumed via a virtio-mem device.
Unfortuantely, we have to report the id of our proxy device. Let's provide
an easy way for our proxy device to register, so it can send the qapi
events. Piggy-backing on the notifier infrastructure (although we'll
only ever have one notifier registered) seems to be an easy way.

This is the very basic/initial version of virtio-mem. An introduction to
virtio-mem can be found in the Linux kernel driver [1]. While it can be
used in the current state for hotplug of a smaller amount of memory, it
will heavily benefit from resizeable memory regions in the future.
Each virtio-mem device manages a memory region (provided via a memory
backend). After requested by the hypervisor ("requested-size"), the
guest can try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within that region, in order
to reach the requested size. Initially, and after a reboot, all memory is
unplugged (except in special cases - reboot during postcopy).
The guest may only try to plug/unplug blocks of memory within the usable
region size. The usable region size is a little bigger than the
requested size, to give the device driver some flexibility. The usable
region size will only grow, except on reboots or when all memory is
requested to get unplugged. The guest can never plug more memory than
requested. Unplugged memory will get zapped/discarded, similar to in a
balloon device.
The block size is variable, however, it is always chosen in a way such that
THP splits are avoided (e.g., 2MB). The state of each block
(plugged/unplugged) is tracked in a bitmap.
As virtio-mem devices (e.g., virtio-mem-pci) will be memory devices, we now
expose "VirtioMEMDeviceInfo" via "query-memory-devices".
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are two important follow-up items that are in the works:
1. Resizeable memory regions: Use resizeable allocations/RAM blocks to
grow/shrink along with the usable region size. This avoids creating
initially very big VMAs, RAM blocks, and KVM slots.
2. Protection of unplugged memory: Make sure the gust cannot actually
make use of unplugged memory.
Other follow-up items that are in the works:
1. Exclude unplugged memory during migration (via precopy notifier).
2. Handle remapping of memory.
3. Support for other architectures.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example usage (virtio-mem-pci is introduced in follow-up patches):
Start QEMU with two virtio-mem devices (one per NUMA node):
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -m 4G,maxmem=20G \
-smp sockets=2,cores=2 \
-numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-1 -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=2-3 \
[...]
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem0,size=8G \
-device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm0,memdev=mem0,node=0,requested-size=0M \
-object memory-backend-ram,id=mem1,size=8G \
-device virtio-mem-pci,id=vm1,memdev=mem1,node=1,requested-size=1G
Query the configuration:
(qemu) info memory-devices
Memory device [virtio-mem]: "vm0"
memaddr: 0x140000000
node: 0
requested-size: 0
size: 0

size: 1073741824
max-size: 8589934592
block-size: 2097152

Add some memory to node 0:
(qemu) qom-set vm0 requested-size 500M
Remove some memory from node 1:
(qemu) qom-set vm1 requested-size 200M
Query the configuration again:
(qemu) info memory-devices
