00d69b4af1 build: use proper pod for nested bulleted VIRSH_DEBUG list
Newer pod (hello rawhide) complains if you attempt to mix bullets
and non-bullets in the same list:

virsh.pod around line 3177: Expected text after =item, not a bullet

As our intent was to nest an inner list, we make that explicit to
keep pod happy.

* tools/virsh.pod (ENVIRONMENT): Use correct pod syntax.

e7cd2844ca Allow multiple parameters for schedinfo
virsh schedinfo was able to set only one parameter at a time (not
counting the deprecated options), but it is useful to set more at
once, so this patch adds the possibility to do stuff like this:

virsh schedinfo <domain> cpu_shares=0 vcpu_period=0 vcpu_quota=0 \
emulator_period=0 emulator_quota=0

Invalid scheduler options are reported as well.  These were previously
reported only if the command hadn't updated any values (when
cmdSchedInfoUpdate returned 0).

d1d2acd7f2 manual: Add info about migrateuri in virsh manual
The virsh(1) man page wasn't saying anything about the 'migrateuri'
parameter other than it can be usually omitted.  A patched version of

69ce3ffa8d virsh: Fix semantics of --config for "update-device" command
The man page states that with --config the next boot is affected. This
can be understood as if _only_ the next boot was affected. This isn't
true if the machine is running.

This patch adds the full --live, --config, --current infrastructure and
tweaks stuff to correctly support the obsolete --persistent flag.

Note that this patch changes the the behavior of the --config flag to match the
use of this flag in rest of libvirt. This flag was mistakenly renamed from
--persistent that originaly had different semantics.

8b9bf7879b Add support for offline migration
Offline migration transfers inactive definition of a domain (which may
or may not be active). After successful completion, the domain remains
in its current state on source host and is defined but inactive on
destination host. It's a bit more clever than virDomainGetXMLDesc() on
source host followed by virDomainDefineXML() on destination host, as
offline migration will run pre-migration hook to update the domain XML
on destination host. Currently, copying non-shared storage is not
supported during offline migration.

Offline migration can be requested with a new migration flag called
VIR_MIGRATE_OFFLINE (which has to be combined with
VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag).

2cd4d8e506 virsh: add snapshot-create-as memspec support
External checkpoints could be created with snapshot-create, but
without libvirt supplying a default name for the memory file,
it is essential to add a new argument to snapshot-create-as to
allow the user to choose the memory file name.  This adds the
option --memspec [file=]name[,snapshot=type], where type can
be none, internal, or external.  For an example,

virsh snapshot-create-as $dom --memspec /path/to/file

is the shortest possible command line for creating an external
checkpoint, named after the current timestamp.

5f75bd4bbe snapshot: Add flag to enable creating checkpoints in live state
The default behavior while creating external checkpoints is to pause the
guest while the memory state is captured. We want the users to sacrifice

to minimize downtime.

taking the snapshot.

ab54581549 virsh: Remove --flags from nodesuspend
We always expose individual bits from flags as separate options rather
than exposing a raw flags options. Since virNodeSuspendForDuration does
not currently support any flags, the only way of using this --flags
options that would not fail is "--flags 0", which is equivalent to
omitting the option. Thus it is highly unlikely anyone would actually be
using it and removing it should be safe.

f81f0f2f1d node_memory: Add new parameter field to tune the new sysfs knob
Upstream kernel introduced new sysfs knob "merge_across_nodes" to
specify if pages from different numa nodes can be merged. When set
to 0, only pages which physically reside in the memory area of
same NUMA node can be merged. When set to 1, pages from all nodes
can be merged.

28f8dfdccc Add MIGRATABLE flag for virDomainGetXMLDesc
Using VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE flag, one can request domain's XML
configuration that is suitable for migration or save/restore. Such XML
may contain extra run-time stuff internal to libvirt and some default
configuration may be removed for better compatibility of the XML with
older libvirt releases.

This flag may serve as an easy way to get the XML that can be passed
(after desired modifications) to APIs that accept custom XMLs, such as
virDomainMigrate{,ToURI}2 or virDomainSaveFlags.

fe7872827f virsh: new net-update command
This command uses the new virNetworkUpdate() API to modify an existing
network definition, and optionally have those modifications take
effect immediately without restarting the network.

An example usage:

  virsh net-update mynet add-last ip-dhcp-host \
   "<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='192.168.122.45'/>" \
   --live --config

If you like, you can instead put the xml into a file, and call like
this:

  virsh net-update mynet add ip-dhcp-host /tmp/myxml.xml
   --live --config

virsh will autodetect whether the argument is itself an xml element,
or if it's a file, by looking at the first character - the first
character of an xml element is always "<", and the first character of
a file is almost always *not* "<" (in the rare case that it is, the
user could specify "./<filename...").

A --parent-index option is also available (to give the index within a
list of parent objects, e.g. the index of the parent <ip> element when
updating ip-dhcp-host elements), but is optional and at least for now
will probably be used rarely.

--live, --config, and --current options - if you specify --live, only
the live state of the network will be updated. If you also specify
--config, then the persistent configuration will also be updated;
these two commands can be given separately, or both together. If you
don't specify either (you can optionally specify "--current" for the
same effect), then the "current" config will be updated (i.e. if the
network is active, then only its live config is affected, but if the
network is inactive, only the persistent config is affected).

ed23b10660 blockjob: add virsh blockcommit
The new command 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk' requests the start
of an asynchronous commit operation across the entire chain of
$disk.  Further arguments can fine-tune which portion of the
chain is committed.  Existing 'virsh blockjob' commands can then
track the status, change the bandwidth, or abort the commit job.

With a bit more on the command line, 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk
--wait --verbose' can be used for blocking behavior, with visual
feedback on the overall status, and can be canceled with Ctrl-C.

The overall design, including the wait loop logic, borrows heavily
from the existing blockpull command.
