however, the former should be preferred, as it doesn't need to

The OEM strings table in SMBIOS allows the vendor to pass arbitrary

kernel command line for OS installers where you can't modify the install
ISO image to change the kernel args.
As an example, consider if cloud-init and anaconda supported OEM strings
you could use something like
<oemStrings>
<entry>cloud-init:ds=nocloud-net;s=http://10.10.0.1:8000/</entry>
<entry>anaconda:method=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/25/x86_64/os</entry>

A <cell> defines a NUMA node. <distances> describes the NUMA distance

in above XML description, the distance between NUMA node0 <cell id='0'
...> and NUMA node2 <sibling id='2' ...> is 31.
Valid distance values are '10 <= value <= 255'. A distance value of 10
represents the distance to the node itself. A distance value of 20
represents the default value for remote nodes but other values are
possible depending on the physical topology of the system.
When distances are not fully described, any missing sibling distance
values will default to 10 for local nodes and 20 for remote nodes.
If distance is given for A -> B, then we default B -> A to the same
value instead of 20.

Since the virStorageEncryptionPtr encryption; is a member of

of the disk <source> for various disk formats:
Source{File|Dir|Block|Volume}
SourceProtocol{RBD|ISCSI|NBD|Gluster|Simple|HTTP}
NB: Simple includes sheepdog, ftp, ftps, tftp
That way we can set up to allow the <encryption> element to be
formatted within the disk source, but we still need to be wary
from whence the element was read - see keep track and when it
comes to format the data, ensure it's written in the correct place.
Modify the qemuxml2argvtest to add a parse failure when there is an
<encryption> as a child of <disk> *and* an <encryption> as a child

The virschematest will read the new test files and validate from a

Since the virStorageAuthDefPtr auth; is a member of _virStorageSource
it really should be allowed to be a subelement of the disk <source>
for the RBD and iSCSI prototcols. That way we can set up to allow
the <auth> element to be formatted within the disk source.
Since we've allowed the <auth> to be a child of <disk>, we'll need
to keep track of how it was read so that when writing out we'll know
whether to format as child of <disk> or <source>. For the argv2xml
parsing, let's format under <source> as a preference. Do not allow
<auth> to be both a child of <disk> and <source>.
Modify the qemuxml2argvtest to add a parse failure when there is an
<auth> as a child of <disk> *and* an <auth> as a child of <source>.
Add tests to validate that if the <auth> was found in <source>, then
the resulting xml2xml and xml2arg works just fine. The two new .args
file are exact copies of the non "-source" version of the file.
The virschematest will read the new test files and validate from a

So we have a syntax-check rule to catch all tab indents but it naturally
can't catch tab spacing, i.e. as a delimiter. This patch is a result of

a list generated by the following:

Commit e371b3b changed all the links to libvirt.org to use https.
Remove the leftover 'http' links from downloads page, since they
point to https anyway.
Index will remain an internal property even if we allow backing store
parsing from the XML, so we need to allow backing store without it in

It's possible to define and start a pool with a '.' in the
name; however, when trying to add a volume to a domain using
the storage pool source with a '.' in the storage pool name,
the domain RNG validation fails because RNG uses 'genericName'
which does not allow a '.' in the name.
Domain XML def parsing has a virXMLValidateAgainstSchema which
generates the error. The Storage Pool XML def parsing has no
call to virXMLValidateAgainstSchema. The only Storage Pool name
validation occurs in virStoragePoolDefParseXML to ensure the
name doesn't have a '/' in it and in storagePoolDefineXML to
call virXMLCheckIllegalChars using the same parameter "\n" as
qemuDomainDefineXMLFlags would check after the RNG check
could be succesful.
In order to resolve this, create a poolName definition in
storagecommon.rng that will mimic the domain name regex that
disallows a newline character, but add the "/" in the exclude
list. Then modify the pool and volume source name definitions
to key off that poolName.
In cea3715b2e and d86fd2402e I've fixed domifstat and QoS
that was reversed for some types of interfaces. Document this
in the news file.

Adding functionality to libvirt that will allow querying the interface
for the availability of switchdev Offloading NIC capabilities.
The switchdev mode was introduced in kernel 4.8, the iproute2-devlink
command to retrieve the switchdev NIC feature with command example:
devlink dev eswitch show pci/0000:03:00.0
This feature is needed for Openstack so we can do a scheduling decision
if the NIC is in Hardware Offload (switchdev) or regular SR-IOV (legacy) mode.
And select the appropriate hypervisors with the requested capability see [1].

Alter the example to remove the <auth> from:

<auth username='myuser'>

<auth username='myuser'>
<secret type='iscsi' usage='libvirtiscsi'/>
</auth>
<target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>
The reality is, it's not even used. For a <source pool> the authdef
from the storage source pool will supercede whatever is in the <disk>
definition during virStorageTranslateDiskSourcePool processing. In fact,
if the pool doesn't have/need authentication, then the authdef would
be removed anyway as the storage pool would be handling things.
The "proof" for this is in the adjustment to the test to add an
<auth> for a disk. The resulting .args file won't add what normally
would be added "myname:encodedpassword@" prior to the hostname in
the IQN (e.g. iscsi://myname:encodedpassword@iscsi.example.org:3260/...
