Replace the existing ad-hoc configuration via various global variables
with a small database of key-value pairs. The database supports
heirarchical keys using a MIB-like syntax to name the path to a given
key. Values are always stored as strings. The API used to manage
configuation values does include wrappers to handling boolean values.
Other values use non-string types require parsing by consumers.
The configuration values are stored in a tree using nvlists. Leaf
nodes hold string values. Configuration values are permitted to
reference other configuration values using '%(name)'. This permits
constructing template configurations.
All existing command line arguments now set configuration values. For
devices, the "-s" option parses its option argument to generate a list
of key-value pairs for the given device.
A new '-o' command line option permits setting an individual
configuration variable. The key name is always given as a full path
of dot-separated components.
A new '-k' command line option parses a simple configuration file.
This configuration file holds a flat list of 'key=value' lines where
the 'key' is the full path of a configuration variable. Lines
starting with a '#' are comments.
In general, bhyve starts by parsing command line options in sequence
and applying those settings to configuration values. Once this is
complete, bhyve then begins initializing its state based on the
configuration values. This means that subsequent configuration
options or files may override or supplement previously given settings.
A special 'config.dump' configuration value can be set to true to help
debug configuration issues. When this value is set, bhyve will print
out the configuration variables as a flat list of 'key=value' lines.
Most command line argments map to a single configuration variable,
e.g. '-w' sets the 'x86.strictmsr' value to false. A few command
line arguments have less obvious effects:
- Multiple '-p' options append their values (as a comma-seperated
list) to "vcpu.N.cpuset" values (where N is a decimal vcpu number).
- For '-s' options, a pci.<bus>.<slot>.<function> node is created.
The first argument to '-s' (the device type) is used as the value of
a "device" variable. Additional comma-separated arguments are then
parsed into 'key=value' pairs and used to set additional variables
under the device node. A PCI device emulation driver can provide
its own hook to override the parsing of the additonal '-s' arguments
after the device type.
After the configuration phase as completed, the init_pci hook
then walks the "pci.<bus>.<slot>.<func>" nodes. It uses the
"device" value to find the device model to use. The device
model's init routine is passed a reference to its nvlist node
in the configuration tree which it can query for specific
variables.
The result is that a lot of the string parsing is removed from
the device models and centralized. In addition, adding a new
variable just requires teaching the model to look for the new
variable.
- For '-l' options, a similar model is used where the string is
parsed into values that are later read during initialization.
One key note here is that the serial ports use the commonly
used lowercase names from existing documentation and examples
(e.g. "lpc.com1") instead of the uppercase names previously
used internally in bhyve.

Save and restore (also known as suspend and resume) permits a snapshot
to be taken of a guest's state that can later be resumed. In the
current implementation, bhyve(8) creates a UNIX domain socket that is
used by bhyvectl(8) to send a request to save a snapshot (and
optionally exit after the snapshot has been taken). A snapshot
currently consists of two files: the first holds a copy of guest RAM,
and the second file holds other guest state such as vCPU register
values and device model state.
To resume a guest, bhyve(8) must be started with a matching pair of
command line arguments to instantiate the same set of device models as
well as a pointer to the saved snapshot.
While the current implementation is useful for several uses cases, it
has a few limitations. The file format for saving the guest state is
tied to the ABI of internal bhyve structures and is not
self-describing (in that it does not communicate the set of device
models present in the system). In addition, the state saved for some
device models closely matches the internal data structures which might
prove a challenge for compatibility of snapshot files across a range
of bhyve versions. The file format also does not currently support
versioning of individual chunks of state. As a result, the current
file format is not a fixed binary format and future revisions to save
and restore will break binary compatiblity of snapshot files. The
goal is to move to a more flexible format that adds versioning,
etc. and at that point to commit to providing a reasonable level of
compatibility. As a result, the current implementation is not enabled
by default. It can be enabled via the WITH_BHYVE_SNAPSHOT=yes option
for userland builds, and the kernel option BHYVE_SHAPSHOT.

Bhyve can currently emulate two virtual NICs, namely virtio-net and e1000,
and connect to the host network through two backends, namely tap and netmap.
However, there is no interface between virtual NIC functionalities and
backend functionalities. As a result, the backend code is duplicated between
the two virtual NIC implementations and also within the same virtual NIC.
Also, e1000 cannot currently use netmap as a backend.
This patch introduces a network backend API between virtio-net/e1000 and
tap/netmap, to improve code reuse and add missing functionalities.
Virtual NICs and backends can negotiate virtio-net features, such as checksum
offload and TSO. If the backend supports the features, it will propagate this
information to the guest, so that the latter can make use of them. Currently,
only netmap VALE ports support the features, but support should be added to
tap in the future.

This commit adds a new debug server to bhyve. Unlike the existing -g
option which provides an efficient connection to a debug server
running in the guest OS, this debug server permits inspection and
control of the guest from within the hypervisor itself without
requiring any cooperation from the guest. It is similar to the debug
server provided by qemu.
To avoid conflicting with the existing -g option, a new -G option has
been added that accepts a TCP port. An IPv4 socket is bound to this
port and listens for connections from debuggers. In addition, if the
port begins with the character 'w', the hypervisor will pause the
guest at the first instruction until a debugger attaches and
explicitly continues the guest. Note that only a single debugger can
attach to a guest at a time.
Virtual CPUs are exposed to the remote debugger as threads. General
purpose register values can be read for each virtual CPU. Other
registers cannot currently be read, and no register values can be
changed by the debugger.
The remote debugger can read guest memory but not write to guest
memory. To facilitate source-level debugging of the guest, memory
addresses from the debugger are treated as virtual addresses (rather
than physical addresses) and are resolved to a physical address using
the active virtual address translation of the current virtual CPU.
Memory reads should honor memory mapped I/O regions, though the debug
server does not attempt to honor any alignment or size constraints
when accessing MMIO.
The debug server provides limited support for controlling the guest.
The guest is suspended when a debugger is attached and resumes when a
debugger detaches. A debugger can suspend a guest by sending a Ctrl-C
request (e.g. via Ctrl-C in GDB). A debugger can also continue a
suspended guest while remaining attached. Breakpoints are not yet
supported. Single stepping is supported on Intel CPUs that support
MTRAP VM exits, but is not available on other systems.
While the current debug server has limited functionality, it should
at least be usable for basic debugging now. It is also a useful
checkpoint to serve as a base for adding additional features.

devmem is used to represent MMIO devices like the boot ROM or a VESA framebuffer
where doing a trap-and-emulate for every access is impractical. devmem is a
hybrid of system memory (sysmem) and emulated device models.
devmem is mapped in the guest address space via nested page tables similar
to sysmem. However the address range where devmem is mapped may be changed
by the guest at runtime (e.g. by reprogramming a PCI BAR). Also devmem is
usually mapped RO or RW as compared to RWX mappings for sysmem.
Each devmem segment is named (e.g. "bootrom") and this name is used to
create a device node for the devmem segment (e.g. /dev/vmm/testvm.bootrom).
The device node supports mmap(2) and this decouples the host mapping of
devmem from its mapping in the guest address space (which can change).
