fe64499dd1 virsh: add missing "async" option in opts_block_commit
After commit 8aecd35126 it'll detect
that a required option is not defined and it will assert and exit with:

virsh.c:1364: vshCommandOpt: Assertion `valid->name' failed.

Problem has been latent since commit ed23b106.

d4952d36d0 Add flag to BaselineCPU API to return detailed CPU features
Currently the virConnectBaselineCPU API does not expose the CPU features
that are part of the CPU's model.  This patch adds a new flag,
VIR_CONNECT_BASELINE_CPU_EXPAND_FEATURES, that causes the API to explicitly
list all features that are part of that model.

cf6d56ac43 migration: Make erroring out on I/O error controllable by flag
Paolo Bonzini pointed out that it's actually possible to migrate a qemu
instance that was paused due to I/O error and it will be able to work on
the destination if the storage is accessible.

This patch introduces flag VIR_MIGRATE_ABORT_ON_ERROR that cancels the
migration in case an I/O error happens while it's being performed and
allows migration without this flag. This flag can be possibly used for
other error reasons that may be introduced in the future.

c2093b2aba Fix commit 29c1e913e4
This patch fixes changes done in commit 29c1e913e4
that was pushed without implementing review feedback.

The flag introduced by the patch is changed to VIR_DOMAIN_VCPU_GUEST and
documentation makes the difference between regular hotplug and this new
functionality more explicit.

The virsh options that enable the use of the new flag are changed to
"--guest" and the documentation is fixed too.

keep pod happy.

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).

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.
