There are extra properties for accelerators to enable the specific

enabled by "-accel kvm,dirty-ring-size=65536". Unfortuntely, the
extra properties for the accelerators aren't supported. It makes
it's impossible to test the combination of KVM and dirty ring
as the following error message indicates.

Allow to specify extra properties for accelerators. With this, the
"its-migration" can be tested for the combination of KVM and dirty
ring.

v3: Split $ACCEL to $ACCEL and $ACCEL_PROPS in get_qemu_accelerator()
     and don't print them as output, suggested by Drew.

As I pointed out in the v2 review we can't just s/accel/ACCEL/ without
other changes. Now ACCEL will also be set when the above condition
is checked, making it useless. Please ensure the test case that commit
c7d6c7f00e7c ("arm/run: Use TCG with qemu-system-arm on arm64 systems")
fixed still works with your patch.


Sorry that I missed your comments for v2. In order to make the test case
in c7d6c7f00e7c working, we just need to call set_qemu_accelerator() after
the chunk of code, like below. When $ACCEL is set to "tcg" by the conditional
code, it won't be changed in the following set_qemu_accelerator().

Could you Please confirm if it looks good to you so that I can integrate
the changes to v4 and post it.

arm/run

if [ "$QEMU" ] && [ -z "$ACCEL" ] &&
   [ "$HOST" = "aarch64" ] && [ "$ARCH" = "arm" ] &&
   [ "$(basename $QEMU)" = "qemu-system-arm" ]; then
        ACCEL="tcg"
fi

set_qemu_accelerator || exit $?
if [ "$ACCEL" = "kvm" ]; then
        QEMU_ARCH=$HOST
fi


Thanks,
Gavin
