The current syntax for audio devices is a horrible multiplexed
arg
-soundhw sb16,pcspk,ac97
The new syntax is
-device sb16,id=sound0
or
-device AC97,id=sound1,addr=<PCI SLOT>
NB, pcspk still uses the old -soundhw syntax
The current character device syntax uses either
-serial tty,path=/dev/ttyS2
Or
-chardev tty,id=serial0,path=/dev/ttyS2 -serial chardev:serial0
With the new -device support, we now prefer
-chardev file,id=serial0,path=/tmp/serial.log -device isa-serial,chardev=serial0
This patch changes the existing -chardev syntax to use this new
scheme, and fallbacks to the old plain -serial syntax for old
QEMU.
The monitor device changes to
-chardev socket,id=monitor,path=/tmp/test-monitor,server,nowait -mon chardev=monitor
In addition, this patch adds --nodefaults, which kills off the
default serial, parallel, vga and nic devices. THis avoids the
need for us to explicitly turn each off
When starting a guest, give every device a unique alias. This will
be used for the 'id' parameter in -device args in later patches.
It can also be used to uniquely identify devices in the monitor
For old QEMU without -device, assign disk names based on QEMU's
historical naming scheme.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Assign unique device aliases
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove obsolete qemudDiskDeviceName
and use the device alias in eject & blockstats commands
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c (virStorageBackendFileSystemRefresh):
Correct parentheses. The documented intent is to ignore non-regular
files, yet due to a parenthesization error all errors were handled
that way.
Probe for the new -device flag and if available set the -nodefaults
flag, instead of using -net none, -serial none or -parallel none.
Other device types will be converted to use -device in later patches.
The -nodefaults flag will help avoid unwelcome surprises from future
QEMU releases
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Probe for -device. Add -nodefaults flag.
Remove -net none, -serial none or -parallel none
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Define QEMU_CMD_FLAG_DEVICE
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-0.12.1: New data file for 0.12.1 QEMU
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: Test feature extraction from 0.12.1 QEMU
Although the serial, parallel, chanel, input & fs devices do
not have PCI address info, they can all have device aliases.
Thus it neccessary to associate the virDomainDeviceInfo data
with them all.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add hooks for
parsing / formatting device info for serial, parallel, channel
input and fs devices.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Associate device info with character
devices, input & fs device
This patch introduces the support for giving all devices a short,
unique name, henceforth known as a 'device alias'. These aliases
are not set by the end user, instead being assigned by the hypervisor
if it decides it want to support this concept.
The QEMU driver sets them whenever using the -device arg syntax
and uses them for improved hotplug/hotunplug. it is the intent
that other APIs (block / interface stats & device hotplug) be
able to accept device alias names in the future.
The XML syntax is
<alias name="video0"/>
This may appear in any type of device that supports device info.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add a 'alias'
field to virDomainDeviceInfo struct & parse/format it in XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virDomainDefClearDeviceAliases
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Replace use of "nic_name" field with the
standard device alias
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Clear device aliases at shutdown
The PCI device addresses are only valid while the VM is running,
since they are auto-assigned by QEMU. After shutdown they must
all be cleared. Future QEMU driver enhancement will allow for
persistent PCI address assignment
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/libvirt_private.syms
Add virDomainDefClearPCIAddresses() method for wiping out auto assigned
PCI addresses
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Clear PCI addresses at VM shutdown
Existing applications using libvirt are not aware of the disk
controller concept. Thus, after parsing the <disk> definitions
in the XML, it is neccessary to create <controller> elements
to satisfy all requested disks, as per their defined drive
addresses
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Add virDomainDefAddDiskControllers()
method for populating disk controllers, and call it after
parsing disk definitions.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Call virDomainDefAddDiskControllers()
when doing ARGV -> XML conversion
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv*.xml: Add disk controller
data to all data files which don't have it already
It is perfectly acceptable to have multiple sound devices of
same type in guest configuration. If the underlying hypervisor
does not like this, it is its job to complain, not the XML
parser's
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Remove hack which deleted duplicated
sound device models.
* tests/xml2sexprdata/xml2sexpr-fv-sound.xml: Remove duplicate
models
Hotunplug of devices requires that we know their PCI address. Even
hotplug of SCSI drives, required that we know the PCI address of
the SCSI controller to attach the drive to. We can find this out
by running 'info pci' and then correlating the vendor/product IDs
with the devices we booted with.
Although this approach is somewhat fragile, it is the only viable
option with QEMU < 0.12, since there is no way for libvirto set
explicit PCI addresses when creating devices in the first place.
For QEMU > 0.12, this code will not be used.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Assign all dynamic PCI addresses on
startup of QEMU VM, matching vendor/product IDs
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Add
API for fetching PCI device address mapping
The current SCSI hotplug support attaches a brand new SCSI controller
for every disk. This is broken because the semantics differ from those
used when starting the VM initially. In the latter case, each SCSI
controller is filled before a new one is added.
If the user specifies an high drive index (sdazz) then at initial
startup, many intermediate SCSI controllers may be added with no
drives.
This patch changes SCSI hotplug so that it exactly matches the
behaviour of initial startup. First the SCSI controller number is
determined for the drive to be hotplugged. If any controller upto
and including that controller number is not yet present, it is
attached. Then finally the drive is attached to the last controller.
NB, this breaks SCSI hotunplug, because there is no 'drive_del'
command in current QEMU. Previous SCSI hotunplug was broken in
any case because it was unplugging the entire controller, not
just the drive in question.
A future QEMU will allow proper SCSI hotunplug of a drive.
This patch is derived from work done by Wolfgang Mauerer on disk
controllers.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fix SCSI hotplug to add a drive to
the correct controller, instead of just attaching a new
controller.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Add
support for 'drive_add' command
This patch allows for explicit hotplug/unplug of SCSI controllers.
Ordinarily this is not required, since QEMU/libvirt will attach
a new SCSI controller whenever one is required. Allowing explicit
hotplug of controllers though, enables the caller to specify a
static PCI address, instead of auto-assigning the next available
PCI slot. Or it will when we have static PCI addressing.
This patch is derived from Wolfgang Mauerer's disk controller
patch series.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Support hotplug & unplug of SCSI
controllers
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,

The latter is not officially "wrong", but *is* terribly anachronistic.
I think automake documentation or comments call that syntax obsolescent.
* cfg.mk (_makefile_at_at_check_exceptions): Exempt @SCHEMADIR@
and @SYSCONFDIR@ uses -- there are no Makefile variables for those.

Until recently, some gnulib-generated replacement headers
included *other* headers that were not strictly necessary,
thus masking the need in this file for an explicit <stdlib.h>.
* src/util/util.c: Include <stdlib.h> for declarations of e.g.,
strtol, random_r, getenv, etc.
Current implementation of x86Decode() used for CPUID -> model+features
translation does not always select the closest CPU model. When walking
through all models from cpu_map.xml the function considers a new
candidate as a better choice than a previously selected candidate only
if the new one is a superset of the old one. In case the new candidate
is closer to host CPU but lacks some feature comparing to the old
candidate, the function does not choose well.
This patch changes the algorithm so that the closest model is always
selected. That is, the model which requires the lowest number of
additional features to describe host CPU.

This ensures that ./configure will work fine if xen development packages
are not around, rather than fail. When passing ./configure --with-xen, the
lack of xen development packages become fatal.
Always use AC_HELP_STRING for the help text for options at ./configure,
so that the output is properly aligned.
Use proper quadrigraphs for outputting the brackets.
Always use autoconf-style [default=$foo] output to state the default, both
where it was stated before and where it wasn't.
This time, include Matthias Bolte notes regarding defaults, and removing
PFX specification from phyp.
qemudFindCharDevicePTYsMonitor reports an error if 'info chardev' didn't
provide information for a requested device, even if the log output parsing
had found the pty path for that device. This makes pty assignment fail for
older QEMU/KVM versions. For example KVM 72 on Debian doesn't support
'info chardev', so qemuMonitorTextGetPtyPaths cannot parse any useful
information and the hash for device-id-to-pty-path mapping stays empty.
Make qemudFindCharDevicePTYsMonitor report an error only if the log output
parsing and the 'info chardev' parsing failed to provide the pty path.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: add defaults for the video device

The current code for using -drive simply sets the -drive 'index'
parameter. QEMU internally converts this to bus/unit depending
on the type of drive. This does not give us precise control over
the bus/unit assignment though. This change switches over to make
libvirt explicitly calculate the bus/unit number.
In addition bus/unit/index are actually irrelevant for VirtIO
disks, since each virtio disk is a separate PCI device. No disk
controller is involved.
Doing the conversion to bus/unit in libvirt allows us to correctly
attach SCSI controllers when required.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Specify bus/unit instead of index for
disks
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk*.args: Switch over from
using index=NNNN, to bus=NN, unit=NN for SCSI/IDE/Floppy disks
To enable it to be called from multiple locations, split out
the code for building the -drive arg string. This will be needed
by later patches which do drive hotplug, the conversion to use
-device, and the conversion to controller/bus/unit addressing
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Add qemuBuildDriveStr
for building -drive arg string
Convert the QEMU monitor APIs over to use virDomainDeviceAddress
structs for passing addresses in/out, instead of individual bits.
This makes the number of parameters smaller & easier to deal with.
No functional change

src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Change monitor hotplug APIs to
take an explicit address ptr for all host/guest addresses
This augments virDomainDevice with a <controller> element
that is used to represent disk controllers (e.g., scsi
controllers). The XML format is given by
<controller type="scsi" index="<num>">
<address type="pci" domain="0xNUM" bus="0xNUM" slot="0xNUM"/>
</controller>
where type denotes the disk interface (scsi, ide,...), index
is an integer that identifies the controller for association
with disks, and the <address> element specifies the controller
address on the PCI bus as described in previous commits
The address element can be omitted; in this case, an address
will be assigned automatically.
Most of the code in this patch is from Wolfgang Mauerer's
previous disk controller series
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Define syntax for <controller>
XML element
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Define
virDomainControllerDef struct, and routines for parsing
and formatting XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Add virDomainControllerInsert
and virDomainControllerDefFree
When parsing the <disk> element specification, if no <address>
is provided for the disk, then automatically assign one based on
the <target dev='sdXX'/> device name. This provides for backwards
compatability with existing applications using libvirt, while also
allowing new apps to have complete fine grained control.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Add virDomainDiskDefAssignAddress()
for assigning a controller/bus/unit address based on disk target
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Call virDomainDiskDefAssignAddress() after
generating XML from ARGV
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/*.xml: Add in drive address information
to all XML files
Add the virDomainDeviceAddress information to the sound, video
and watchdog devices. This means all of them gain the new XML
element
<address .... />
This brings them upto par with disk/net/hostdev devices which
already have address info
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add virDomainDeviceAddress to sound,
video & watchdog device struts.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Hook up parsing/formatting for
virDomainDeviceAddress in sound, video & watchdog devices
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Associate device address info
with sound, video & watchdog
Introduce a new structure
struct _virDomainDeviceDriveAddress {
unsigned int controller;
unsigned int bus;
unsigned int unit;
};
and plug that into virDomainDeviceAddress and generates XML that
looks like
<address type='drive' controller='1' bus='0' unit='5'/>
This syntax will be used by the QEMU driver to explicitly control
how drives are attached to the bus
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c: Parsing and
formatting of drive addresses
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Define new address format for drives
All guest devices now use a common device address structure
summarized by:
enum virDomainDeviceAddressType {
VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_NONE,
VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_PCI,
};
struct _virDomainDevicePCIAddress {
unsigned int domain;
unsigned int bus;
unsigned int slot;
unsigned int function;
};
struct _virDomainDeviceInfo {
int type;
union {
virDomainDevicePCIAddress pci;
} addr;
};
This replaces the anonymous structs in Disk/Net/Hostdev data
structures. Where available, the address is *always* printed
in the XML file, instead of being hidden in the internal state
file.
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x1e' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
The structure definition is based on Wolfgang Mauerer's disk
controller patch series.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Define the <address> syntax and
associate it with disk/net/hostdev devices
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c,
src/libvirt_private.syms: APIs for parsing/formatting address
information. Also remove the QEMU specific 'pci_addr' attributes
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Replace use of 'pci_addr' attrs with
new standardized format.
Only print out '.' for each test case, full test output can be
re-enabled with VIR_TEST_VERBOSE=1, or VIR_TEST_DEBUG=XXXX
Sample output now looks like
TEST: statstest
........................................ 40
................................... 75 OK
PASS: statstest
TEST: qparamtest
................................ 32 OK
PASS: qparamtest
TEST:
............ 12 OK
With the introduction virDispatchError, hook function errors are
never sent through the error callback, so users will never see
these messages.
Fix this by calling virDispatchError after hook failure.
Based off how QEMU does it, look through /sys/bus/usb/devices/* for
matching vendor:product info, and if found, use info from the surrounding
files to build the device's /dev/bus/usb path.
This fixes USB device assignment by vendor:product when running qemu
as non-root (well, it should, but for some reason I couldn't reproduce
the failure people are seeing in [1], but it appears to work properly)
