The normal value for the event is to be set. If we do not do

timerlist_run_timers has been run at least once for the timerlist.
This can happen with the following patches, that make aio_notify do
nothing most of the time.

Commit 691a0c9c introduced a mechanism by which QEMU_CLOCK_HOST can
notify other parts of the emulator when the host clock has jumped
backward. This is used to avoid stalling timers that were scheduled
based on the host clock.
However, if the host clock jumps forward, then timers that were
scheduled based on the host clock may fire rapidly and cause other
problems. For example, the mc146818rtc periodic timer will block
execution of the VM and consume host CPU while firing every interrupt
for the time period that was skipped by the host clock.
To correct that problem, this commit fires the reset notification if the
host clock jumps forward by more than a hard-coded limit. The limit is
currently set to a value of 60 seconds, which should be small enough to
prevent excessive timer loops, but large enough to avoid frequent resets
in idle VMs.

qemu-timer.c was including a lot more headers than it needed to,
presumably for historical reasons. In particular, it included
ui/console.h; this now tries to pull in <pixman.h>, which will
cause a compilation failure in --disable-tools --disable-system
configurations when running "make check" (which builds qemu-timer.c,
even though the linux-user binaries themselves don't need it).
Fix this build failure by trimming down the set of included
headers severely -- we only really need main-loop.h and timer.h.

In some cases, a timer was set to NULL so that we could check if it is
initialized. Use the timer_list field instead, and add a timer_deinit
function that NULLs it.
It then makes sense that timer_del be a no-op (instead of a crasher) on
such a de-initialized timer. It avoids the need to poke at the timerlist
field to check if the timers are initialized.

In qemu_poll_ns(), when we convert an int64_t nanosecond timeout into
a struct timespec, we may accidentally run into overflow problems if
the timeout is very long. This happens because the tv_sec field is a
time_t, which is signed, so we might end up setting it to a negative
value by mistake. This will result in what was intended to be a
near-infinite timeout turning into an instantaneous timeout, and we'll
busy loop. Cap the maximum timeout at INT32_MAX seconds (about 68 years)
to avoid this problem.
This specifically manifested on ARM hosts as an extreme slowdown on
guest shutdown (when the guest reprogrammed the PL031 RTC to not
generate alarms using a very long timeout) but could happen on other
hosts and guests too.

Clocks are initialized in qemu_init_main_loop. They are not needed before it.
Initializing them twice is not only unnecessary but is harmful: it results in
memory leak and potentially can lead to a situation where different parts of
QEMU use different sets of timers.
To avoid it remove init_clocks call from main and add an assertion to
qemu_clock_init that corresponding clock has not been initialized yet.

We can deduce the result from expire_time, by making it always -1 if
the timer is not in the active_timers list. We need to check against
negative times passed to timer_mod_ns; clamping them to zero is not
a problem because the only clock that has a zero value at VM startup
is QEMU_CLOCK_VIRTUAL, and it is monotonic so it cannot be non-zero.
QEMU_CLOCK_HOST, instead, is not monotonic but it cannot go to negative
values unless the host time is seriously screwed up and points to
the 1960s.

host_alarm_handler() is invoked from the signal processing thread
(currently the iothread). Previously we did processing in a real signal
handler with signalfd and therefore needed signal-safe timer code.
Today host_alarm_handler() just marks the alarm timer as expired/pending
and notifies the main loop using qemu_notify_event().
Therefore these outdated comments about signal safety can be dropped.

QEMU will hang when fed the following command-line
qemu-system-mips -kernel vmlinux-2.6.32-5-4kc-malta -append "console=ttyS0" -nographic -net none
The -net none is important otherwise it seems some events are generated
causing the things to work. When it doesn't work, the guest hangs when
measuring the CPU frequency, after the following line:
[ 0.000000] NR_IRQS:256
Pressing a key on the serial port unblocks it, hinting that the problem
is due to the recent elimination of the 1 second timeout in the main
loop.
The problem is that because init_timer_alarm sets the timer's pending
flag to true, the alarm timer is never armed until after the first time
through the main loop. Thus the bug started when QEMU started testing
the pending flag in qemu_mod_timer (commit 1828be3, more alarm timer
cleanup, 2010-03-10).
But actually, it isn't true at all that a timer is pending when the
alarm timer is created, and the real bug has been latent forever: the
fix is to remove the bogus setting of pending flag.

For command line options which permit '?' meaning 'please list the
permitted values', add support for 'help' as a synonym, by abstracting
the check out into a helper function.
This change means that in some cases where we were being lazy in
our string parsing, "?junk" will now be rejected as an invalid option
rather than being (undocumentedly) treated the same way as "?".
Update the documentation to use 'help' rather than '?', since '?'
is a shell metacharacter and thus prone to fail confusingly if there
is a single character filename in the current working directory and
the '?' has not been escaped. It's therefore better to steer users
towards 'help', though '?' is retained for backwards compatibility.
We do not, however, update the output of the system emulator's -help
(or any documentation autogenerated from the qemu-options.hx which
is the source of the -help text) because libvirt parses our -help
output and will break. At a later date when QEMU provides a better
interface so libvirt can avoid having to do this, we can update the
-help text too.
