kvm: Provide sigbus services arch-independently

Provide arch-independent kvm_on_sigbus* stubs to remove the #ifdef'ery
from cpus.c. This patch also fixes --disable-kvm build by providing the
missing kvm_on_sigbus_vcpu kvm-stub.

Refactor signal setup functions in cpus.c

Move {tcg,kvm}_init_ipi and block_io_signals to avoid prototypes, rename
the former two to clarify that they deal with more than SIG_IPI. No
functional changes - except for the tiny fixup of strerror usage.

The forward declaration of sigbus_handler is just temporarily, it will...

kvm: Set up signal mask also for !CONFIG_IOTHREAD

Block SIG_IPI, unblock it during KVM_RUN, just like in io-thread mode.
It's unused so far, but this infrastructure will be required for
self-IPIs and to process SIGBUS plus, in KVM mode, SIGIO and SIGALRM. As...

Prevent abortion on multiple VCPU kicks

If we call qemu_cpu_kick more than once before the target was able to
process the signal, pthread_kill will fail, and qemu will abort. Prevent
this by avoiding the redundant signal.

This logic can be found in qemu-kvm as well....

Stop current VCPU on synchronous reset requests

If some I/O operation ends up calling qemu_system_reset_request in VCPU
context, we record this and inform the io-thread, but we do not
terminate the VCPU loop. This can lead to fairly unexpected behavior if...

Trigger exit from cpu_exec_all on pending IO events

Except for timer events, we currently do not leave the loop over all
VCPUs if an IO event was filed. That may cause unexpected IO latencies
under !CONFIG_IOTHREAD in SMP scenarios. Fix it by setting the global...

kvm: Do not use qemu_fair_mutex

The imbalance in the hold time of qemu_global_mutex only exists in TCG
mode. In contrast to TCG VCPUs, KVM drops the global lock during guest
execution. We already avoid touching the fairness lock from the
IO-thread in KVM mode, so also stop using it from the VCPU threads....

Fix cpu_exit for tcp_cpu_exec

If a cpu_exit request is pending, ensure that we leave the CPU loop
quickly. For this purpose, keep the global exit_request pending until

SMP loop if the request is set, do not run till the end of the chain....
