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.

These enums originally were put into the flags for virNetworkUpdate,
and when they were moved into their own enum, the numbers weren't
appropriately changed, causing the commands to start with value 2
instead of 1. This causes problems for things like ENUM_IMPL, which
wants a string for every value in the requested range, including those
not used in the enum.
This patch adds a new public API virNetworkUpdate that will permit
updating an existing network configuration without requiring that the
network be destroyed/restarted for the changes to take effect.
A block commit moves data in the opposite direction of block pull.
Block pull reduces the chain length by dropping backing files after
data has been pulled into the top overlay, and is always safe; block
commit reduces the chain length by dropping overlays after data has
been committed into the backing file, and any files that depended
on base but not on top are invalidated at any point where they have
unallocated data that is now pointing to changed contents in base.
Both directions are useful, however: a qcow2 layer that is more than
50% allocated will typically be faster with a pull operation, while
a qcow2 layer with less than 50% allocation will be faster as a
commit operation. Committing across multiple layers can be more
efficient than repeatedly committing one layer at a time, but
requires extra support from the hypervisor.
This API matches Jeff Cody's proposed qemu command 'block-commit':
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02226.html
Jeff's command is still in the works for qemu 1.3, and may gain
further enhancements, such as the ability to control on-error
handling (it will be comparable to the error handling Paolo is
adding to 'drive-mirror', so a similar solution will be needed
when I finally propose virDomainBlockCopy with more functionality
than the basics supported by virDomainBlockRebase). However, even
without qemu support, this API will be useful for _offline_ block
commits, by wrapping qemu-img calls and turning them into a block
job, so this API is worth committing now.
For some examples of how this will be implemented, all starting
with the chain: base <- snap1 <- snap2 <- active
+ These are equivalent:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "active", 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", "active", 0, 0)
but cannot be implemented for online qemu with round 1 of
Jeff's patches; and for offline images, it would require
three back-to-back qemu-img invocations unless qemu-img
is patched to allow more efficient multi-layer commits;
the end result would be 'base' as the active disk with
contents from all three other files, where 'snap1' and
'snap2' are invalid right away, and 'active' is invalid
once any further changes to 'base' are made.
+ These are equivalent:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, _SHALLOW)
they cannot be implemented for online qemu, but for offline,
it is a matter of 'qemu-img commit active', so that 'snap2'
is now the active disk with contents formerly in 'active'.
+ Similarly:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, _DELETE)
for an offline domain will merge 'active' into 'snap2', then
delete 'active' to avoid leaving a potentially invalid file
around.
+ This version:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "snap2", 0, _SHALLOW)
can be implemented online with 'block-commit' passing a base of
snap1 and a top of snap2; and can be implemented offline by
'qemu-img commit snap2' followed by 'qemu-img rebase -u
-b snap1 active'

This patch adds helper functions that enable us to use libssh2 in
conjunction with libvirt's virNetSockets for ssh transport instead of
spawning "ssh" client process.
This implemetation supports tunneled plaintext, keyboard-interactive,
private key, ssh agent based and null authentication. Libvirt's Auth
callback is used for interaction with the user. (Keyboard interactive
authentication, adding of host keys, private key passphrases). This
enables seamless integration into the application using libvirt. No
helpers as "ssh-askpass" are needed.
Reading and writing of OpenSSH style "known_hosts" files is supported.
Communication is done using SSH exec channel, where the user may specify
arbitrary command to be executed on the remote side and reads and writes
to/from stdin/out are sent through the ssh channel. Usage of stderr is
not (yet) supported.

Storage is one of the last domains in libvirt where we don't fully
utilize inactive and live XML. Okay, it might be because we don't
have support for that. So implement such support. However, we need
to fallback when talking to old daemon which doesn't support this
new flag called VIR_STORAGE_XML_INACTIVE.
There was an inherent race between virDomainSnapshotNum() and
virDomainSnapshotListNames(), where an additional snapshot could
be created in the meantime, or where a snapshot could be deleted
before converting the name back to a virDomainSnapshotPtr. It
was also an awkward name: the function operates on domains, not
domain snapshots. virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames() suffered
from the same inherent race, although its naming was nicer.
This patch makes things nicer by grabbing a snapshot list
atomically, in the format most useful to the user.

It turns out that one-bit filtering makes it hard to select the inverse
set, so it is easier to provide filtering groups. For back-compat,
omitting all bits within a group means the group is not used for
filtering, and by definition of a group (each snapshot matches exactly
one bit within the group, and the set of bits in the group covers all
snapshots), selecting all bits also makes the group useless.
Unfortunately, virDomainSnapshotListChildren defined the bit
VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_DESCENDANTS as an expansion rather than a
filter, so we cannot make it part of a filter group, so that bit
(and its counterpart VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_ROOTS for
virDomainSnapshotList) remains a single control bit.

This patch adds a new public api that lists domains. The new approach is
different from those used before. There are key points to this:
1) The list is acquired atomically and contains both active and inactive
domains (guests). This eliminates the need to call two different list
APIs, where the state might change in between the calls.
2) The returned list consists of virDomainPtrs instead of names or ID's
that have to be converted to virDomainPtrs anyways using separate calls
for each one of them. This is more convenient and saves hypervisor calls.
3) The returned list is auto-allocated. This saves a lot of hassle for
the users.
4) Built in support for filtering. The API call supports various
filtering flags that modify the output list according to user needs.
Available filter groups:
Domain status:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_ACTIVE, VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_INACTIVE
Domain persistence:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_PERSISTENT,
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_TRANSIENT
Domain state:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_RUNNING, VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_PAUSED,
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_SHUTOFF, VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_OTHER
Existence of managed save image:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_MANAGEDSAVE,
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_NO_MANAGEDSAVE
Auto-start option:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_AUTOSTART,
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_NO_AUTOSTART
Existence of snapshot:
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_HAS_SNAPSHOT,
VIR_CONNECT_LIST_DOMAINS_NO_SNAPSHOT
5) The python binding returns a list of domain objects that is very neat
to work with.
The only problem with this approach is no support from code generators
so both RPC code and python bindings had to be written manually.
*include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: - add API prototype
- clean up whitespace mistakes nearby
*python/generator.py: - inhibit generation of the bindings for the new
api
*src/driver.h: - add driver prototype
- clean up some whitespace mistakes nearby
*src/libvirt.c: - add public implementation
*src/libvirt_public.syms: - export the new symbol
Right now, starting from just a virDomainSnapshotPtr, and wanting to
know if it is the current snapshot for its respective domain, you have
to use virDomainSnapshotGetDomain(), then virDomainSnapshotCurrent(),
then compare the two names returned by virDomainSnapshotGetName().
It is a bit easier if we can directly query this information from the
snapshot itself.
Right now, it is possible to filter a snapshot listing based on
whether snapshots have metadata that would prevent domain deletion,
but the only way to learn if an individual snapshot has metadata is
to see if that snapshot appears in the list returned by a listing.
Additionally, I hope to expand the qemu driver in a future patch to
use qemu-img to reconstruct snapshot XML corresponding to internal
qcow2 snapshot names not otherwise tracked by libvirt (in part, so
that libvirt can guarantee that new snapshots are not created with
a name that would silently corrupt the existing portion of the qcow2
file); if I ever get that in, then it would no longer be an all-or-none
decision on whether snapshots have metadata, and becomes all the more
important to be able to directly determine that information from a
particular snapshot.
Other query functions (such as virDomainIsActive) do not have a flags
argument, but since virDomainHasCurrentSnapshot takes a flags argument,
I figured it was safer to provide a flags argument here as well.

virDomainSnapshotPtr has a refcount member, but no one was able
to use it. Furthermore, all of our other vir*Ptr objects have
a *Ref method to match their *Free method. Thankfully, this is
client-side only, so we can use this new function regardless of
how old the server side is! (I have future patches to virsh
that want to use it.)

This patch adds support for a new storage backend with RBD support.
RBD is the RADOS Block Device and is part of the Ceph distributed storage
system.
It comes in two flavours: Qemu-RBD and Kernel RBD, this storage backend only
supports Qemu-RBD, thus limiting the use of this storage driver to Qemu only.
To function this backend relies on librbd and librados being present on the
local system.
The backend also supports Cephx authentication for safe authentication with
the Ceph cluster.
For storing credentials it uses the built-in secret mechanism of libvirt.

Currently virDomainGetCPUStats gets total cpu usage, which consists

2. hypervisor: `total cpu usage' - `vcpu usage'
The param 'vcpu_time' is for getting vcpu usages.
This patch introduces a new block job, useful for live storage
migration using pre-copy streaming. Justification for including
this under virDomainBlockRebase rather than adding a new command
includes: 1) there are now two possible block jobs in qemu, with
virDomainBlockRebase starting either type of command, and
virDomainBlockJobInfo and virDomainBlockJobAbort working to end
either type; 2) reusing this command allows distros to backport
this feature to the libvirt 0.9.10 API without a .so bump.
Note that a future patch may add a more powerful interface named
virDomainBlockJobCopy, dedicated to just the block copy job, in
order to expose even more options (such as setting an arbitrary
format type for the destination without having to probe it from a
pre-existing destination file); adding a new command for targetting
just block copy would be similar to how we already have
virDomainBlockPull for targetting just the block pull job.
Using a live VM with the backing chain:
base <- snap1 <- snap2
as the starting point, we have:
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY)
creates /path/to/copy with the same format as snap2, with no backing
file, so entire chain is copied and flattened
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY_RAW)
creates /path/to/copy as a raw file, so entire chain is copied and
flattened
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_SHALLOW)
creates /path/to/copy with the same format as snap2, but with snap1 as
a backing file, so only snap2 is copied.
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_REUSE_EXT)
reuse existing /path/to/copy (must have empty contents, and format is
probed[*] from the metadata), and copy the full chain
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_REUSE_EXT|
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_SHALLOW)
reuse existing /path/to/copy (contents must be identical to snap1,
and format is probed[*] from the metadata), and copy only the contents
of snap2
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_REUSE_EXT|
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_SHALLOW|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY_RAW)
reuse existing /path/to/copy (must be raw volume with contents
identical to snap1), and copy only the contents of snap2
Less useful combinations:
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_SHALLOW|
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY_RAW)
fail if source is not raw, otherwise create /path/to/copy as raw and
the single file is copied (no chain involved)
- virDomainBlockRebase(dom, disk, "/path/to/copy", 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY|VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_REUSE_EXT|
VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY_RAW)
makes little sense: the destination must be raw but have no contents,
meaning that it is an empty file, so there is nothing to reuse
The other three flags are rejected without VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_COPY.
[*] Note that probing an existing file for its format can be a security
risk _if_ there is a possibility that the existing file is 'raw', in
which case the guest can manipulate the file to appear like some other
format. But, by virtue of the VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_COPY_RAW flag,
it is possible to avoid probing of raw files, at which point, probing
of any remaining file type is no longer a security risk.
It would be nice if we could issue an event when pivoting from phase 1
to phase 2, but qemu hasn't implemented that, and we would have to poll
in order to synthesize it ourselves. Meanwhile, qemu will give us a
distinct job info and completion event when we either cancel or pivot
to end the job. Pivoting is accomplished via the new:
virDomainBlockJobAbort(dom, disk, VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_PIVOT)
Management applications can pre-create the copy with a relative
backing file name, and use the VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_REBASE_REUSE_EXT
flag to have qemu reuse the metadata; if the management application
also copies the backing files to a new location, this can be used
to perform live storage migration of an entire backing chain.

DBus connection. The HAL device code further requires that
the DBus connection is integrated with the event loop and
provides such glue logic itself.
The forthcoming FirewallD integration also requires a
dbus connection with event loop integration. Thus we need
to pull the current event loop glue out of the HAL driver.
Thus we create src/util/virdbus.{c,h} files. This contains
just one method virDBusGetSystemBus() which obtains a handle
to the single shared system bus instance, with event glue
automagically setup.
Block job cancellation can take a while. Now that upstream qemu 1.1
has asynchronous block cancellation, we want to expose that to the user.
Therefore, the following updates are made to the virDomainBlockJob API:
A new block job event type VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED is managed by
libvirt. Regardless of the flags used with virDomainBlockJobAbort, this
event will be raised: 1. when using synchronous block_job_cancel (the
event will be synthesized by libvirt), and 2. whenever it is received
from qemu (via asynchronous block-job-cancel). Note that the event
may be detected by libvirt even before the virDomainBlockJobAbort
completes (always true when it is synthesized, but also possible if
cancellation was fast).
A new extension flag VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC is added to the
virDomainBlockJobAbort API. When enabled, this function will allow
(but not require) asynchronous operation (ie, it returns as soon as
possible, which might be before the job has actually been canceled).
When the API is used in this mode, it is the responsibility of the
caller to wait for a VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED event or poll via
the virDomainGetBlockJobInfo API to check the cancellation status.
This patch also exposes the new flag through virsh, and makes virsh
slightly easier to use (--async implies --abort, and lack of any options
implies --info), although it leaves the qemu implementation for later
patches.

Right now, it is appallingly easy to cause qemu disk snapshots
to alter a domain then fail; for example, by requesting a two-disk
snapshot where the second disk name resides on read-only storage.
In this failure scenario, libvirt reports failure, but modifies
the live domain XML in-place to record that the first disk snapshot
was taken; and places a difficult burden on the management app
to grab the XML and reparse it to see which disks, if any, were
altered by the partial snapshot.
This patch adds a new flag where implementations can request that
the hypervisor make snapshots atomically; either no changes to
XML occur, or all disks were altered as a group. If you request
the flag, you either get outright failure up front, or you take
advantage of hypervisor abilities to make an atomic snapshot. Of
course, drivers should prefer the atomic means even without the
flag explicitly requested.
There's no way to make snapshots 100% bulletproof - even if the
hypervisor does it perfectly atomic, we could run out of memory
during the followup tasks of updating our in-memory XML, and report
a failure. However, these sorts of catastrophic failures are rare
and unlikely, and it is still nicer to know that either all
snapshots happened or none of them, as that is an easier state to
recover from.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in
(VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_ATOMIC): New flag.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Document it.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotCreate, cmdSnapshotCreateAs): Expose it.
* tools/virsh.pod (snapshot-create, snapshot-create-as): Document
it.
Recent changes have caused build failures on systems where pdwtags works:
commit a26a196 mistakenly exported a public variable
commits a26a196, 57ddcc2, 487c063 all had copy-paste bugs in
hand-updating the golden API rather than rerunning pdwtags
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainEventTrayChangeReason):
Make this a typedef, not external storage.
* src/remote_protocol-structs (remote_procedure): Fix spelling.
This introduces a new running reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP,
and new suspend event type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
While a wakeup event is emitted, the domain which entered into
VIR_DOMAIN_PMSUSPENDED will be transferred to "running"
with reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP, and a new domain lifecycle
event emitted with type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
This introduces a new domain state pmsuspended to represent
the domain which has been suspended by guest power management,
e.g. (entered itno s3 state). Because a "running" state could
be confused in this case, one will see the guest is paused
actually while playing. And state "paused" is for the domain
which was paused by virDomainSuspend.
This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
SUSPEND:
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_PMSUSPEND
The event doesn't take any data, but considering there might
be reason for wakeup in future, the callback definition is:
typedef void
(*virConnectDomainEventSuspendCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int reason,
void *opaque);
"reason" is unused currently, always passes "0".
