MESS SVN r13410

"r13396
Make softlist validation better (no whatsnew)
r13397
wswan: fixed bug 2045. this fixes crash in several wswan games (Morita Shougi, Chocobo Dungeon, World Stadium, World Stadium '99 and the two Medarot games) and possibly in some wscolor games too. [Fabio Priuli]

tech comment: according to docs the frequency value is 11 bits long, so I just masked out the value, fixing the crash.
r13398
wswan.xml: added precise support status. no whatsnew.
r13399
cosmetic change. no whatsnew.
r13410
fixed validity errors (SlickEdit actually flagged these but I wasn't paying attention, doh) (nw)"

fix: always use the top-level item when adding an entry to the favorites
r3263

QEMU v1.0-rc4

"General
- i386-softmmu is no longer named qemu but instead referred to as qemu-system-i386 for better consistency with other targets. A new tool is likely to be introduced that uses the qemu name so distributions are advised to not undo this change.
- A new monitor command "info mtree" can show the hierarchy of memory regions in the guest.
- QEMU now has a build dependency on glib.
- QEMU now can run on more hosts. Hosts without a native code generator can use the TCG interpreter (TCI). See Features/TCI for more information.

Block devices (disks)
- QEMU now supports I/O latency accounting in the monitor command "info blockstats".
- Errors are now tracked per device and are shown by the monitor command "info block".
- All image formats now support asynchronous operation. IDE and SCSI emulation will use this feature, while other devices (notably floppy and SD) will not.

IDE/ATAPI
- A large number of bugs were fixed regarding CD media change and tray locking.

SCSI
- Memory management errors could crash QEMU when scsi-disk encountered I/O errors. Many instances of this problem were fixed.
- The accuracy of error handling for SCSI emulation has been greatly improved.
- SCSI devices can now be addressed by channel, target (id) and LUN. Not all emulated HBAs will support this feature (in particular, the LSI controller will not).
- Block device pass through is now supported through a new scsi-block device. The scsi-block device works with block devices (like /dev/sda or /dev/sr0) rather than /dev/sgN devices, and is more efficient because it does not consume arbitrary amounts of memory when the guest does large data transfers.
- SCSI CD-ROMs now report media changed events.
- SCSI CD-ROMs now support DVD images.
- Bugfixes for IDE media change also apply to SCSI.
- SCSI devices now report a unit attention condition when the system is started or reset. This may cause problems with old firmware versions.

VDI
Now supports discarded blocks in dynamically-sized images."
