Fedora doesn't ship OVMF/AAVMF builds in its repos due to licensing
issues, so the recommended way to consume these bits is via Gerd's
nightly repo: https://www.kraxel.org/repos
Let's teach fedora builds about the loader/nvram pairs these packages
installed, so users don't need to edit qemu.conf to get virt-manager
UEFI support.
Some hypervisors like Xen do not have PIDs associated with domains.
Relax the requirement for PID != 0 in the locking code so it can
be used by hypervisors that do not represent domains as a process
running on the host.

When running on FreeBSD, there's a bug in virCommandProcessIO
polling that is triggered by the commandtest.
A test that triggers EPIPE in commandtest (named "test20") hungs
forever on FreeBSD.
Apparently, this happens because FreeBSD sets POLLHUP flag on revents
when stdin in closed. And as the current implementation only checks for
POLLOUT and POLLERR, it ends up looping forever inside
virCommandProcessIO and not trying to do one more write() that would
trigger EPIPE.
To fix that check for the POLLHUP flag along with POLLOUT and POLLERR.
When a user would specify a backing chain index that is above the start
point libvirt would report a rather unhelpful error:
invalid argument: could not find backing store 1 in chain for 'sub/link2'
This patch adds an explicit check that the index is below start point in
the backing store and reports the following error if not:
invalid argument: requested backing store index 1 is above 'sub/../qcow2' in chain for 'sub/link2'

The virNetDev{Restore,Replace}MacAddress() functions are only used
by VF-related routines that are available on Linux only. So move these
functions under the same #ifdef.
Because packets going through the egress from a bridge (where our
bandwidth limiting takes place) have no information about which
interface they came from, the QoS rules that we create instead
use the source MAC address of the packets to make their decisions
about which QDisc the packet should be in.
One flaw in this is that when a guest changed the MAC address it
used, packets from the guest would no longer be put into the
correct QDisc, but would instead be put in an "unprivileged"
class, resulting in the bandwidth "floor" (minimum guaranteed)
being no longer honored.
Now that libvirt has infrastructure to capture and respond to
RX_FILTER_CHANGE events from qemu (sent whenever a guest
interface modifies its MAC address, among other things), we can
notice when a guest MAC address changes, and update the QoS rules
accordingly, so that bandwidth floor is honored even after a
guest MAC address change.

qemuDomainSetMemoryFlags() would allow to set the initial memory greater
than the <maxMemory> field. While the configuration would not work as
memory hotplug requires NUMA to be enabled and the
qemuDomainSetMemoryFlags() API does not work on NUMA guests this just
fixes a corner case.
The fix is still worth though as it allows to induce an invalid
configuration and make the VM vanish on libvirt restart.
Additionally this tweaks error message to be more accurate.

A further fix for:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1113474
Since there is no possibility that any type of macvtap will work if
the parent physdev it's attached to is offline, we should bring the
physdev online at the same time as the macvtap. When taking the
macvtap offline, it's also necessary to take the physdev offline for
macvtap passthrough mode (because the physdev has the same MAC address
as the macvtap device, so could potentially cause problems with
misdirected packets during migration, as outlined in commits 829770
and 879c13). We can't set the physdev offline for other macvtap modes
1) because there may be other macvtap devices attached to the same
physdev (and/or the host itself may be using the device) in the other
modes whereas passthrough mode is exclusive to one macvtap at a time,
and 2) there's no practical reason to do so anyway.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1113474
When we set the MAC address of a network device as a part of setting
up macvtap "passthrough" mode (where the domain has an emulated netdev
connected to a host macvtap device that has exclusive use of the
physical device, and sets the device MAC address to match its own,
i.e. "<interface type='direct'> <source mode='passthrough' .../>"), we
use ioctl(SIOCSIFHWADDR) giving it the name of that device. This is
true even if it is an SRIOV Virtual Function (VF).
But, when we are setting the MAC address / vlan ID of a VF in
preparation for "hostdev network" passthrough (this is where we set
the MAC address and vlan id of the VF after detaching the host net
driver and before assigning the device to the domain with PCI
passthrough, i.e. "<interface type='hostdev'>", we do the setting via
a netlink RTM_SETLINK message for that VF's Physical Function (PF),
telling it the VF# we want to change. This sets an "administratively
changed MAC" flag for that VF in the PF's driver, and from that point
on (until the PF driver is reloaded, *not* merely the VF driver) that
VF's MAC address can't be changed using ioctl(SIOCSIFHWADDR) - the
only way to change it is via the PF with RTM_SETLINK.
This means that if a VF is used for hostdev passthrough, it will have
the admin flag set, and future attempts to use that VF for macvtap
passthrough will fail.
The solution to this problem is to check if the device being used for
macvtap passthrough is actually a VF; if so, we use the netlink
RTM_SETLINK message to the PF to set the VF's mac address instead of
ioctl(SIOCSIFHWADDR) directly to the VF; if not, behavior does not
change from previously.
There are three pieces to making this work:
1) virNetDevMacVLan(Create|Delete)WithVPortProfile() now call
virNetDev(Replace|Restore)NetConfig() rather than
virNetDev(Replace|Restore)MacAddress() (simply passing -1 for VF#
and vlanid).
2) virNetDev(Replace|Restore)NetConfig() check to see if the device is
a VF. If so, they find the PF's name and VF#, allowing them to call
virNetDev(Replace|Restore)VfConfig().
3) To prevent mixups when detaching a macvtap passthrough device that
had been attached while running an older version of libvirt,
virNetDevRestoreVfConfig() is potentially given the preserved name
of the VF, and if the proper statefile for a VF can't be found in
the stateDir (${stateDir}/${pfname}_vf${vfid}),
virNetDevRestoreMacAddress() is called instead (which will look in
the file named ${stateDir}/${vfname}).
This problem has existed in every version of libvirt that has both
macvtap passthrough and interface type='hostdev'. Fortunately people
seem to use one or the other though, so it hasn't caused any real
world problem reports.
- Remove all qemu emulators
- Restart libvirtd
- Install qemu emulators
- Call 'virsh version' -> errors
The only thing that will force the qemu driver to refresh it's cached
capablities info is an explict API call to GetCapabilities.
However in the case when the initial caps lookup at driver connect didn't
find a single qemu emulator to poll, the driver is effectively useless
and really can't do anything until it's populated some qemu capabilities
info.
With the above steps, the user would have to either know about the
magic refresh capabilities call, or restart libvirtd to pick up the
changes.
Instead, this patch changes things so that every time a part of th
driver requests access to capabilities info, check to see if
we've previously seen any emulators. If not, force a refresh.
In the case of 'still no emulators found', this is still very quick, so
I can't think of a downside.

Adjust the processLU error returns to be a bit more logical. Currently,
the calling code cannot determine the difference between a non disk/lun
volume and a processed/found disk/lun. It can also not differentiate
between perhaps real/fatal error and one that won't necessarily stop
the code from finding other volumes.
After this patch virStorageBackendSCSIFindLUsInternal will stop processing
as soon as a "fatal" message occurs rather than continuting processing
for no apparent reason. It will also only set the *found value when
at least one of the processLU's was successful.
With the failed return, if the reason for the stop was that the pool
target path did not exist, was /dev, was /dev/, or did not start with
/dev, then iSCSI pool startup and refresh will fail.
Rather than passing/returning a pointer to a boolean to indicate that
perhaps we should try again - adjust the return of the call to return
the count of LU's found during processing, then let the caller decide
what to do with that value.
Use virStorageBackendPoolUseDevPath API to determine whether creation of
stable target path is possible for the volume.
This will differentiate a failed virStorageBackendStablePath which won't
need to be fatal. Thus, we'll add a -2 return value to differentiate that
the failure was a result of either the inability to find the symlink for
the device or failure to open the target path directory
For virStorageBackendStablePath, in order to make decisions in other code
split out the checks regarding whether the pool's target is empty, using /dev,
using /dev/, or doesn't start with /dev

So, in the example the cpu stats are collected within a function
called do_top. At the beginning of the function we ask the daemon for
how much vCPUs can we get stats, and how many stats for a vCPU can we
get. This is because it's how our API works - users are required to
preallocate a chunk of memory for the results. Now, at the end, we try
to free the allocated array, but we are not doing it correctly.
There's this virTypedParamsFree() function which gets a pointer to the
array and the length of the array. However, if there was an error in
getting vCPU stats we pass a negative number instead of the originally
computed value. This flaw results in SIGSEGV:

This needs to specified in way too many places for a simple validation
check. The ostype/arch/virttype validation checks later in
DomainDefParseXML should catch most of the cases that this was covering.
This revealed that GuestDefaultEmulator was a bit buggy, capable
of returning an emulator that didn't match the passed domain type. Fix
up the test suite input to continue to pass.
This is a helper function to look up all capabilities data for all
the OS bits that are relevant to <domain>. This is
- os type
- arch
- domain type
- emulator
- machine type
This will be used to replace several functions in later commits.
But the internal API stays the same, and we just convert the value as
needed. Not useful yet, but this is the beginning step of using an enum
for ostype throughout the code.
When parsing XML, we validate the passed ostype + arch combo against
the detected hypervisor capabilities. This has led to the following
problem:
- Define x86 qemu guest
- qemu is inadvertently removed from the host
- libvirtd is restarted. fails to parse VM config since arch is removed
- 'virsh list --all' is now empty, user is wondering where their VMs went

it when loading VM and snapshot configs from disk.

after : unsupported configuration: no support found for os <type> '$type'
VIR_ERR_OS_TYPE is now unused (as it should be frankly) so drop its strings

In Parallels we do not support device name hints

disk device addressing through

and have only one index instead.
In this situation to be consistent we can only take

of full address. Values outside this subset are
invalid to create Parallels VMs.
Reasonable mapping is default one defined in virDomainDiskDefAssignAddress.

So we have this bug. The virConnectGetDomainCapabilities() API
performs a couple of checks before it produces any result. One of
the checks is if the architecture requested by user can be run by
the binary (again user provided). However, the check is pretty
dumb. It merely compares if the default binary architecture
matches the one provided by user. However, a qemu binary can run
multiple architectures. For instance: qemu-system-ppc64 can run:
ppc, ppcle, ppc64, ppc64le and ppcemb. The default is ppc64, so
if user requested something else, like ppc64le, the check would
have failed without obvious reason.

When a qemu domain is to be rebooted, from outside, at libvirt
level it looks like regular shutdown. To really restart the
domain, libvirt needs to issue reset command on the monitor once
SHUTDOWN event appeared. So, in order to differentiate bare
shutdown and reboot libvirt uses a variable within domain private
data. It's called fakeReboot. When the reboot API is called, the
variable is set, but when the shutdown API is called it must be
cleared out. But it was not for every possible case. So if user
called virDomainReboot(), and there was no ACPI daemon running
inside the guest (so guest didn't initiated shutdown sequence)
and then virDomainShutdown(mode=agent) was called bad thing
happened. We remembered the fakeReboot and instead of shutting
the domain down, we just rebooted it.

This is a simple wrapper around virNetDevBandwidthManipulateFilter() that
will update the desired filter on an interface (usually a network bridge)
with a new MAC address. Although, the MAC address in question usually
refers to some other interface - the one that the filter is constructed
for. Yeah, hard to parse. Thing is, our NATed network has a bridge where
some part of QoS takes place. And vNICs from guests are plugged into
the bridge. However, if a guest decides to change the MAC of its vNIC,
the corresponding qemu process emits an event which we can use to
update the QoS configuration based on the new MAC address.. However,
our QoS hierarchy is currently not notified, therefore it falls apart.
This function (when called in response to the aforementioned event)
will update our QoS hierarchy and duct tape it together again.
