Ploop image consists of directory with two files: ploop image itself,
called root.hds and DiskDescriptor.xml that contains information about
ploop device: https://openvz.org/Ploop/format.
Such volume are difficult to manipulate in terms of existing volume types
because they are neither a single files nor a directory.
This patch introduces new volume type - ploop. This volume type is used

This controller provides a single PCIe port on a new root. It is
similar to pci-expander-bus, intended to provide a bus that can be
associated with a guest-identifiable NUMA node, but is for
machinetypes with PCIe rather than PCI (e.g. q35-based machinetypes).
Aside from PCIe vs. PCI, the other main difference is that a
pci-expander-bus has a companion pci-bridge that is automatically
attached along with it, but pcie-expander-bus has only a single port,
and that port will only connect to a pcie-root-port, or to a
pcie-switch-upstream-port. In order for the bus to be of any use in
the guest, it must have either a pcie-root-port or a
pcie-switch-upstream-port attached (and one or more
pcie-switch-downstream-ports attached to the
pcie-switch-upstream-port).
This is a standard PCI root bus (not a bridge) that can be added to a
440fx-based domain. Although it uses a PCI slot, this is *not* how it
is connected into the PCI bus hierarchy, but is only used for
control. Each pci-expander-bus provides 32 slots (0-31) that can
accept hotplug of standard PCI devices.
The usefulness of pci-expander-bus relative to a pci-bridge is that
the NUMA node of the bus can be specified with the <node> subelement
of <target>. This gives guest-side visibility to the NUMA node of
attached devices (presuming that management apps only assign a device
to a bus that has a NUMA node number matching the node number of the
device on the host).
Each pci-expander-bus also has a "busNr" attribute. The expander-bus
itself will take the busNr specified, and all buses that are connected
to this bus (including the pci-bridge that is automatically added to
any expander bus of model "pxb" (see the next commit)) will use
busNr+1, busNr+2, etc, and the pci-root (or the expander-bus with next
lower busNr) will use bus numbers lower than busNr.
This is especially useful for "bus", since the bus of a device's pci
address is matched to the "index" of a controller to determine which
bus it will be connected to, and "index" is always specified in
decimal - being able to specify both in decimal at least makes it
easier to assure a device is being assigned to the correct bus when it
is added. For the other attributes, it is just a convenience.
(MB: the parser already allows for any of these attributes to be given
in decimal, and there are even examples floating around on the
internet that give them in decimal rather than hex (written in the
days before virsh did schema validation on all XML). This only updates
the schema to match the parser.)
nwfilter.rng defines uint16range and uint32range, but in a different
manner (it also allows a variable name as the value, rather than just
a decimal or hex number). I wanted to add uint16range to
basictypes.rng, but my desired definition was parallel to those for
uint8range and uint24range which are defined in basictypes.rng - they
*don't* allow a variable name for the value.
The simplest path to make everyone happy is to make the "plain"
versions in basictypes.rng have simpler names - "uint8", "uint16", and
"uint24". This patch renames uint8range and uint24range to uint8 and
uint24, while the next patch will add uint16.
The pcie-switch-downstream-port and pcie-root-port controllers have
only a single slot, numbered 0, and the greate majority of all guest
PCI devices are plugged into function 0 of whatever slot they're
using. The parser makes these optional, setting them to 0 when not
specified, and it's logical for the schema to also make them optional.
This cleanups the documentation, reformat some of the paragraphs to use
<p> instead of </br> and rewrites the listen part to be more extendable.

- remove top padding for h1. this means page titles sit flush with the top
of the side bar (like 'The virtualization API' on the front page)
- up the top padding for the remaining sections. makes it visually easier
to tell adjacent header sections apart, especially in dense wiki pages
- use two different spacing levels for h2-h4 and h5-h6,
gives pages some more visual flexibility
- use a slightly lower bottom padding... this makes top padding stick out
more which makes it visually easier to differentiate between adjacent
header sections
In order to follow recent comments which indicate support for specific
feature bits are supported by a specific QEMU version add the version
from whence the relaxed, vapic, and spinlocks support was added.
This patch adds support for "vpindex", "runtime", "synic",
"stimer", and "vendor_id" features available in qemu 2.5+.
- When Hyper-V "vpindex" is on, guest can use MSR HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX
to get virtual processor ID.
- Hyper-V "runtime" enlightement feature allows to use MSR
HV_X64_MSR_VP_RUNTIME to get the time the virtual processor consumes
running guest code, as well as the time the hypervisor spends running
code on behalf of that guest.
- Hyper-V "synic" stands for Synthetic Interrupt Controller, which is
lapic extension controlled via MSRs.
- Hyper-V "stimer" switches on Hyper-V SynIC timers MSR's support.
Guest can setup and use fired by host events (SynIC interrupt and
appropriate timer expiration message) as guest clock events
- Hyper-V "reset" allows guest to reset VM.
- Hyper-V "vendor_id" exposes hypervisor vendor id to guest.

Most hypervisors use Hardware Assisted Paging by default and don't
require specifying the feature in domain conf. But some hypervisors
support disabling HAP on a per-domain basis. To enable HAP by default
yet provide a knob to disable it, extend the <hap> feature with a
'state=on|off' attribute, similar to <pvspinlock> and <vmport> features.
In the absence of <hap>, the hypervisor default (on) is used. <hap>
without the state attribute would be the same as <hap state='on'/> for
backwards compatibility. And of course <hap state='off'/> disables hap.

- Add line-height:150% spacing for all text. This makes text lines far
less cramped, and seems closer visually to what wikipedia uses.
- Remove bottom and top margin from lists: entries seemed needlessly
spread out.
- Reduce sublist indentation a bit
- Add a bottom border after headings: IMO this greatly helps in break
up the vertical flow of a big page of text. Doesn't look great on the
front page, but helps a lot on dense pages like formatdomain
- change font-family to just 'sans-serif' rather than hardcode a few
font families. this means we abide the user's browser font setting,
and makes us consistent with other sites like en.wikipedia.org
- raise font-size to 90%. this is what en.wikipedia.org uses.
With these two tweaks, libvirt.org text renders the same as
en.wikipedia.org with fedora firefox out of the box config. Previously
the font on libvirt.org was very small and difficult to read.

This attribute is used to extend secondary PCI bar and expose it to the
guest as 64bit memory. It works like this: attribute vram is there to
set size of secondary PCI bar and guest sees it as 32bit memory,
attribute vram64 can extend this secondary PCI bar. If both attributes
are used, guest sees two memory bars, both address the same memory, with
the difference that the 32bit bar can address only the first part of the
whole memory.

Recent changes to the handling of GIC version, specifically commit
2a7b11eafb, have clearly defined what values are acceptable for the
version attribute of the <gic> element. Update the documentation
accordingly.
This change allows to use "host" as a GIC version in the domain XML.
Since we'll need to update the virGICVersion enumeration to support
new GIC versions anyway, it makes sense to be a bit more strict in
the schema as well and reject values that are not in the enumeration.
When generating docs in a VPATH build we get a failure to

Add a new storage pool source device attribute 'part_separator=[yes|no]'
in order to allow a 'disk' storage pool using a device mapper multipath
device to not add the "p" partition separator to the generated device
name when libvirt_parthelper is run.
This will allow libvirt to find device mapper multipath devices which were
configured in /etc/multipath.conf to use 'user_friendly_names' or custom
'alias' names for the LUN.
So after da176bf6b7 and friend we have switched to $(wildcard
some/path/*.xml) instead of enumerating the files explicitly.
This is nice, however it makes distcheck build from VPATH fail.

Excessive memory balloon inflation can cause invocation of OOM-killer,

If no port number was provided for a storage pool libvirt defaults to
port 6789; however, librbd/librados already default to 6789 when no port
number is provided.
In the future Ceph will switch to a new port for the Ceph monitors since
port 6789 is already assigned to a different application by IANA.
Port 6789 is assigned to SMC-HTTPS and Ceph now has port 3300 assigned as
the 'Ceph monitor' port.
In this case it is the best solution to not hardcode any port number into
libvirt and let librados handle the connection.
Only if a user specifies a different port number we pass it down to librados,
otherwise we leave it blank.

The documentation (and comment in libvirtd.conf) says that the text in
a log filter is compared to the "source file name", and gives the
example of "util/json", but this is not correct (at least not since
commit 2835c1e, possibly earlier). It is instead compared to the
string given in the VIR_LOG_INIT() macro invocation at the top of each
source file, which is always "similar to but not the same as" the
source file name (in the example above, the proper name is
"util.json", while the file name is "util/virjson.c"). This patch
corrects the misstatement in both the documentation and in
libvirtd.conf.

Using more than 4TiB of memory per NUMA node would not be possible to

basictypes.rng with the same pattern.

As it turned out, we need to share some enums and declarations between
libvirt.h and libvirt-admin.h, but since our policy forbids direct includes of
libvirt*.h, there has to be some header exempt from this rule. This patch moves
the relevant part of code from libvirt.h.in to libvirt-common.h.in. Moreover,
since there is no need to have libvirt.h generated anymore, introduce a new
header libvirt.h which was previosly ignored from git and make the common
header ignored and generated instead.

'model' attribute was added to a panic device but only one panic
device is allowed. This patch changes panic device presence
from 'optional' to 'zeroOrMore'.
Libvirt already has two types of panic devices - pvpanic and pSeries firmware.
This patch introduces the 'model' attribute and a new type of panic device.
'isa' model is for ISA pvpanic device.
'pseries' model is a default value for pSeries guests.
'hyperv' model is the new type. It's used for Hyper-V crash.
Schema and docs are updated for the new attribute.
Report the maximum possible number of VFs for an SRIOV PF, like this:
<capability type='virtual_functions' maxCount='7'>
...
</capability>
I've just discovered that the virtual_functions and physical_functions
capabilities are not supported in the virNodeDeviceParse functions,
only in virNodeDeviceFormat (I suppose because they are only reported,
not set from XML). This should probably be remedied, but is less
immediately useful than the current patch.
Adjust the config code so that it does not enforce that target memory
node is specified. To avoid breakage, adjust the qemu memory hotplug
config checker to disallow such config for now.
