This reverts commit 6a85e60cb9.
Commit 51767e7 "qemu-char: Add new char backend CirMemCharDriver"
introduced a memory ring buffer character device driver named
"memory". Commit 3949e59 "qemu-char: Saner naming of memchar stuff &
doc fixes" changed the driver name to "ringbuf", along with a whole
bunch of other names, with the following rationale:
Naming is a mess. The code calls the device driver
CirMemCharDriver, the public API calls it "memory", "memchardev",
or "memchar", and the special commands are named like
"memchar-FOO". "memory" is a particularly unfortunate choice,
because there's another character device driver called
MemoryDriver. Moreover, the device's distinctive property is that
it's a ring buffer, not that's in memory.
This is what we released in 1.4.0.
Unfortunately, the rename missed a critical instance of "memory": the
actual driver name. Thus, the new device could be used only by an
entirely undocumented name. The documented name did not work.
Bummer.
Commit 6a85e60 fixes this by changing the documentation to match the
code. It also changes some, but not all related occurences of
"ringbuf" to "memory". Left alone are identifiers in C code, HMP and
QMP commands. The latter are external interface, so they can't be
changed.
The result is an inconsistent mess. Moreover, "memory" is a rotten
name. The device's distinctive property is that it's a ring buffer,
not that's in memory. User's don't care whether it's in RAM, flash,
or carved into chocolate tablets by Oompa Loompas.
Revert the commit. Next commit will fix just the bug.

The g_io_channel_write_chars() documentation states,
bytes_written: The number of bytes written. This can be nonzero even if
the return value is not G_IO_STATUS_NORMAL. [...]
io_channel_send() could lose such bytes before.
Furthermore, the (status == G_IO_STATUS_EOF) condition used to evaluate to
constant false whenever it was reached. When that condition actually held,
it always led to -1 / EINVAL. This patch (almost) distinguishes
G_IO_STATUS_EOF only when no bytes have been written, and then treats it
as an error.

With mon:stdio you can exit the VM by switching to the monitor and
sending the "quit" command. It is then useful to pass Ctrl-C to the
VM instead of exiting.
This in turn lets us stop tying the default signal handling behavior
to -nographic, removing gratuitous differences between "-display none"
and "-nographic".
This patch changes behavior for "-display none -serial mon:stdio", as
expected, but not for "-display none -serial stdio".

its options linger, and any attempt to create another one with the

In two places qemu uses openpty() which is very system-dependent,
and in both places the pty is switched to raw mode as well.
Make a wrapper function which does both steps, and move all the
system-dependent complexity into a separate file, together
with static/local implementations of openpty() and cfmakeraw()
from qemu-char.c.
It is in a separate file, not part of oslib-posix.c, because
openpty() often resides in -lutil which is not linked to
every program qemu builds.
This change removes #including of <pty.h>, <termios.h>
and other rather specific system headers out of qemu-common.h,
which isn't a place for such specific headers really.

When CHR_EVENT_OPENED was initially added, it was CHR_EVENT_RESET,
and it was issued as a bottom-half:
86e94dea5b
Which we basically used to print out a greeting/prompt for the
monitor.
AFAICT the only reason this was ever done in a BH was because in
some cases we'd modify the chr_write handler for a new chardev
backend *after* the site where we issued the reset (see:
86e94d:qemu_chr_open_stdio())
At some point this event was renamed to CHR_EVENT_OPENED, and we've
maintained the use of this BH ever since.
However, due to 9f939df955, we schedule
the BH via g_idle_add(), which is causing events to sometimes be
delivered after we've already begun processing data from backends,
leading to:
known bugs:
QMP:
session negotation resets with OPENED event, in some cases this
is causing new sessions to get sporadically reset
potential bugs:
hw/usb/redirect.c:
can_read handler checks for dev->parser != NULL, which may be
true if CLOSED BH has not been executed yet. In the past, OPENED
quiesced outstanding CLOSED events prior to us reading client
data. If it's delayed, our check may allow reads to occur even
though we haven't processed the OPENED event yet, and when we
do finally get the OPENED event, our state may get reset.
qtest.c:
can begin session before OPENED event is processed, leading to
a spurious reset of the system and irq_levels
gdbstub.c:
may start a gdb session prior to the machine being paused
To fix these, let's just drop the BH.
Since the initial reasoning for using it still applies to an extent,
work around that by deferring the delivery of CHR_EVENT_OPENED until
after the chardevs have been fully initialized, toward the end of
qmp_chardev_add() (or some cases, qemu_chr_new_from_opts()). This
defers delivery long enough that we can be assured a CharDriverState
is fully initialized before CHR_EVENT_OPENED is sent.
Also, rather than requiring each chardev to do an explicit open, do it
automatically, and allow the small few who don't desire such behavior to
suppress the OPENED-on-init behavior by setting a 'explicit_be_open'
flag.
We additionally add missing OPENED events for stdio backends on w32,
which were previously not being issued, causing us to not recieve the
banner and initial prompts for qmp/hmp.

Due to a glib bug, the finalize callback is called with the GMainContext
lock held. Thus, any operation on the context from the callback will
cause recursive locking and a deadlock. This happens, for example,
when a client disconnects from a socket chardev.
The fix for this is somewhat ugly, because we need to forego polymorphism
and implement our own function to destroy IOWatchPoll sources. The
right thing to do here would be child sources, but we support older
glib versions that do not have them. Not coincidentially, glib developers
found and fixed the deadlock as part of implementing child sources.

Even if a CharDriverState's source is blocked by the front-end,
it must not be dropped. The IOWatchPoll that wraps it will take

that the wrapping IOWatchPoll is removed too.
These should just be theoretical bugs.

There is no need to use a timer and pty_chr_read to detect a connected
pty. It is simpler to just call g_poll periodically and check for POLLHUP.
It is done once per second, and only if the pty is disconnected, so it
is cheap enough.
Tested with "-monitor pty" and "-serial mon:pty", both of which work

After attaching the source, we have to remove the reference we hold
to it, because we do not hold anymore a pointer to the source.
If we do not do this, removing the source will not finalize it and
will not drop the "real" I/O watch source.
This showed up when backporting the new flow control patches to older
versions of QEMU that still used select. The whole select then failed

I misread the glib manual, g_source_remove does not let you re-attach
the source later. This behavior (called "blocking" the source in glib)
is present in glib's source code, but private and not available outside
glib; hence, we have to resort to re-creating the source every time.
In fact, g_source_remove and g_source_destroy are the same thing,
except g_source_destroy is O(1) while g_source_remove scans a potentially
very long list of GSources in the current main loop. Ugh. Better
use g_source_destroy explicitly, and leave "tags" to those dummies who
cannot track their pointers' lifetimes.

The character backend refactoring introduced an undesirable busy wait.
The busy wait happens if can_read returns zero and there is data available
on the character device's file descriptor. Then, the I/O watch will
fire continuously and, with TCG, the CPU thread will never run.
1) Char backend asks front end if it can write
2) Front end says no
3) poll() finds the char backend's descriptor is available
4) Goto (1)
What we really want is this (note that step 3 avoids the busy wait):
1) Char backend asks front end if it can write
2) Front end says no
3) poll() goes on without char backend's descriptor
4) Goto (1) until qemu_chr_accept_input() called
5) Char backend asks front end if it can write
6) Front end says yes
7) poll() finds the char backend's descriptor is available
8) Backend handler called
After this patch, the IOWatchPoll source and the watch source are
separated. The IOWatchPoll is simply a hook that runs during the prepare
phase on each main loop iteration. The hook adds/removes the actual
source depending on the return value from can_read.
A simple reproducer is
qemu-system-i386 -serial mon:stdio
... followed by banging on the terminal as much as you can. :) Without
this patch, emulation will hang.

When we receive a file descriptor over a UNIX domain socket the
O_NONBLOCK flag is preserved. Clear the O_NONBLOCK flag and rely on
QEMU file descriptor users like migration, SPICE, VNC, block layer, and
others to set non-blocking only when necessary.
This change ensures we don't accidentally expose O_NONBLOCK in the QMP
API. QMP clients should not need to get the non-blocking state
"correct".
A recent real-world example was when libvirt passed a non-blocking TCP
socket for migration where we expected a blocking socket. The source
QEMU produced a corrupted migration stream since its code did not cope
