qemu-doc: convert user-mode emulation to a separate Sphinx manual
The final addition to the set of QEMU manuals is the user-mode emulation manual, which right now is included in qemu-doc.texi. Extract it and convert it to rST, so that qemu-doc.texi covers only full system emulation. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Message-id: 20200226113034.6741-2-pbonzini@redhat.com [PMM: Fix makefile conflicts; add user manual to index.rst and index.html.in; don't specify empty man_pages list; fixed a few comments to say 'user' rather than 'system'] Reviewed-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Peter Maydell <peter.maydell@linaro.org>

+QEMU User space emulator
+========================
+
+Supported Operating Systems
+---------------------------
+
+The following OS are supported in user space emulation:
+
+- Linux (referred as qemu-linux-user)
+
+- BSD (referred as qemu-bsd-user)
+
+Features
+--------
+
+QEMU user space emulation has the following notable features:
+
+**System call translation:**
+ QEMU includes a generic system call translator. This means that the
+ parameters of the system calls can be converted to fix endianness and
+ 32/64-bit mismatches between hosts and targets. IOCTLs can be
+ converted too.
+
+**POSIX signal handling:**
+ QEMU can redirect to the running program all signals coming from the
+ host (such as ``SIGALRM``), as well as synthesize signals from
+ virtual CPU exceptions (for example ``SIGFPE`` when the program
+ executes a division by zero).
+
+ QEMU relies on the host kernel to emulate most signal system calls,
+ for example to emulate the signal mask. On Linux, QEMU supports both
+ normal and real-time signals.
+
+**Threading:**
+ On Linux, QEMU can emulate the ``clone`` syscall and create a real
+ host thread (with a separate virtual CPU) for each emulated thread.
+ Note that not all targets currently emulate atomic operations
+ correctly. x86 and ARM use a global lock in order to preserve their
+ semantics.
+
+QEMU was conceived so that ultimately it can emulate itself. Although it
+is not very useful, it is an important test to show the power of the
+emulator.
+
+Linux User space emulator
+-------------------------
+
+Quick Start
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+In order to launch a Linux process, QEMU needs the process executable
+itself and all the target (x86) dynamic libraries used by it.
+
+- On x86, you can just try to launch any process by using the native
+ libraries::
+
+ qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls
+
+ ``-L /`` tells that the x86 dynamic linker must be searched with a
+ ``/`` prefix.
+
+- Since QEMU is also a linux process, you can launch QEMU with QEMU
+ (NOTE: you can only do that if you compiled QEMU from the sources)::
+
+ qemu-i386 -L / qemu-i386 -L / /bin/ls
+
+- On non x86 CPUs, you need first to download at least an x86 glibc
+ (``qemu-runtime-i386-XXX-.tar.gz`` on the QEMU web page). Ensure that
+ ``LD_LIBRARY_PATH`` is not set::
+
+ unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+
+ Then you can launch the precompiled ``ls`` x86 executable::
+
+ qemu-i386 tests/i386/ls
+
+ You can look at ``scripts/qemu-binfmt-conf.sh`` so that QEMU is
+ automatically launched by the Linux kernel when you try to launch x86
+ executables. It requires the ``binfmt_misc`` module in the Linux
+ kernel.
+
+- The x86 version of QEMU is also included. You can try weird things
+ such as::
+
+ qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/qemu-i386 \
+ /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386
+
+Wine launch
+~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+- Ensure that you have a working QEMU with the x86 glibc distribution
+ (see previous section). In order to verify it, you must be able to
+ do::
+
+ qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/ls-i386
+
+- Download the binary x86 Wine install (``qemu-XXX-i386-wine.tar.gz``
+ on the QEMU web page).
+
+- Configure Wine on your account. Look at the provided script
+ ``/usr/local/qemu-i386/bin/wine-conf.sh``. Your previous
+ ``${HOME}/.wine`` directory is saved to ``${HOME}/.wine.org``.
+
+- Then you can try the example ``putty.exe``::
+
+ qemu-i386 /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/bin/wine \
+ /usr/local/qemu-i386/wine/c/Program\ Files/putty.exe
+

+``-E var=value``
+ Set environment var to value.
+
+``-U var``
+ Remove var from the environment.
+
+``-B offset``
+ Offset guest address by the specified number of bytes. This is useful
+ when the address region required by guest applications is reserved on
+ the host. This option is currently only supported on some hosts.
+
+``-R size``
+ Pre-allocate a guest virtual address space of the given size (in
+ bytes). \"G\", \"M\", and \"k\" suffixes may be used when specifying
+ the size.

+ Activate logging of the specified items (use '-d help' for a list of
+ log items)

+``-p pagesize``
+ Act as if the host page size was 'pagesize' bytes
+
+``-g port``
+ Wait gdb connection to port
+
+``-singlestep``
+ Run the emulation in single step mode.

+Environment variables:
+
+QEMU_STRACE
+ Print system calls and arguments similar to the 'strace' program
+ (NOTE: the actual 'strace' program will not work because the user
+ space emulator hasn't implemented ptrace). At the moment this is
+ incomplete. All system calls that don't have a specific argument
+ format are printed with information for six arguments. Many
+ flag-style arguments don't have decoders and will show up as numbers.

-
-In order to launch a BSD process, QEMU needs the process executable
-itself and all the target dynamic libraries used by it.
-
-@itemize
-
-@item On Sparc64, you can just try to launch any process by using the native
-libraries:
-
-@example
-qemu-sparc64 /bin/ls

-@table @option
-@item -h
-Print the help
-@item -L path
-Set the library root path (default=/)
-@item -s size
