Currently spapr_caps are tied to boolean values (on or off). This patch
reworks the caps so that they can have any value between 0 and 127,
inclusive. This allows more capabilities with various values to be
represented in the same way internally. Capabilities are numbered in
ascending order. The internal representation of capability values is an
array of uint8s in the sPAPRMachineState, indexed by capability number.
Note: The MSB (0x80) of a capability is reserved to track whether the
      capability was set from the command line.

Capabilities can have their own name, description, options, getter and
setter functions, type and allow functions. They also each have their own
section in the migration stream. Capabilities are only migrated if they
were explictly set on the command line, with the assumption that
otherwise the default will match.

On migration we ensure that the capability value on the destination
is greater than or equal to the capability value from the source. So
long at this remains the case then the migration is considered
compatible and allowed to continue.

This patch implements generic getter and setter functions for boolean
capabilities. It also converts the existings cap-htm, cap-vsx and
cap-dfp capabilities to this new format.

Hi, Suraj.

I've got the impression that this patch does a lot of things. What about
splitting this patch into the following?

- rename spapr_has_cap() -> spapr_get_cap()
- introduce each spapr_cap_[gs]et_bool() in separate patches
- make use of spapr_cap[gs]et_bool()
- convert capabilities internal representation to uint8
- add each new capability separately

Perhaps it can be broken into even smaller changes.

Cheers
Murilo

Changing the command-line interface from off/on to 0/1 seems
unnecessary, given that broken/workaround/fixed are used for the
capabilities you introduce later in the series. off/on look much
better IMHO.

These numeric comparisons make me feel very uneasy :)

What if we need to add more possible values down the line? Should
there be at least some room between existing values to avoid painting
ourselves in a corner? Eg. instead of using 0/1/2 use 20/40/60...

You clearly know more about the problem than I do, so feel free to
dismiss all of the above... I thought I would bring up my worries
just in case :)

These are booleans so they have to be "on"/"off" anyway... 0/1 doesn't
work. My bad :/ I'll fix the message.

For these capabilities I think we're ok to keep it as 0/1/2. In the
event we need a bigger range another capability can be added with other
possible values which was the whole point of introducing this generic
framework. The basic idea is the receiving side must always support a
higher "level" than the source.

With these new capabilities it's more likely we'll have to add an
entirly new one than require more possible values. :)

It could even be possible to have a per capability comparison function
to confirm compatibility in future. But again thats an exercise for
when/if more complex capabilities are added.

Absolutely. This was an RFC to get the code out there for comment.
I'll try to split it up further as suggested for the actual patch
series :)

I concur.  New capabilities which require a more detailed set of
values are reasonably likely.  New values for existing capabilities
are not - to make sense of the capabilities you really need to
understand the set of all possible values when they're defined.  So I
think 0..2 is ok.

I'd prefer to see explicit >0 or !=0 to emphasise that the returned
value is now an integer not a bool.

I think we need a new name for this since it can both allow and
disallow.  Maybe 'apply'?

A downside of fusing allow and disallow is that we can't now apply the
rule that failure to allow is an error but failure to disallow is only
a warning in the common code.  Oh well.

It's not really clear to me what the options field is for.

Having to have a separate needed, pre_save and pre_load for each cap
will be a pain.  I hope we can find a way to do this in common.

I'd suggest spapr/caps/htm - and a common vmstate_spapr_caps to hold
the subsections for convenience rather than putting them straight
under the master spapr one.

I don't think you have an equivalent of this in the new code, which
means that an explicitly set property could prevent migration, even if
it actually has the default value.
