i8259: add -no-spurious-interrupt-hack option
This patch provides a way to optionally suppress spurious interrupts, as a workaround for systems described below: Some old operating systems do not handle spurious interrupts well, and qemu tends to generate them significantly more often than real hardware. Examples: - Microport UNIX System V/386 v 2.1 (ca 1987) (The main problem I'm fixing: Without this patch, it panics sporadically when accessing the hard disk.) - AT&T UNIX System V/386 Release 4.0 Version 2.1a (ca 1991) See screenshot in "QEMU Official OS Support List": http://www.claunia.com/qemu/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=9 (I don't have this system to test.) - A report about OS/2 boot lockup from 2004 by Hampa Hug: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2004-09/msg00367.html (My patch was partially inspired by his.) Also: http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2005-06/msg00243.html (I don't have this system to test.)
