Qemu is adding the ability to do a partial rebase. That is, given:
base <- intermediate <- current
virDomainBlockPull will produce:
current
but qemu now has the ability to leave base in the chain, to produce:
base <- current
Note that current qemu can only do a forward merge, and only with
the current image as the destination, which is fully described by
this API without flags. But in the future, it may be possible to
enhance this API for additional scenarios by using flags:
Merging the current image back into a previous image (that is,
undoing a live snapshot), could be done by passing base as the
destination and flags with a bit requesting a backward merge.
Merging any other part of the image chain, whether forwards (the
backing image contents are pulled into the newer file) or backwards
(the deltas recorded in the newer file are merged back into the
backing file), could also be done by passing a new flag that says
that base should be treated as an XML snippet rather than an
absolute path name, where the XML could then supply the additional
instructions of which part of the image chain is being merged into
any other part.

This patch adds API to modify domain metadata for running and stopped
domains. The api supports changing description, title as well as the
newly added <metadata> element. The API has support for storing data in
the metadata element using xml namespaces.

We already provide ways to detect when a domain has been paused as a
result of I/O error, but there was no way of getting the exact error or
even the device that experienced it. This new API may be used for both.
add new API virDomainGetCPUStats() for getting cpu accounting information
per real cpus which is used by a domain. The API is designed to allow
future extensions for additional statistics.

This API allows a domain to be put into one of S# ACPI states.
Currently, S3 and S4 are supported. These states are shared
with virNodeSuspendForDuration.
However, for now we don't support any duration other than zero.
The same apply for flags.
Add a new function to allow changing of capacity of storage volumes.
Plan out several flags, even if not all of them will be implemented
up front.
Expose the new command via 'virsh vol-resize'.

Currently, we support only filling a volume with zeroes on wiping.
However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been
written, therefore we should support other wiping algorithms.
Add a new API virDomainShutdownFlags and define:
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_DEFAULT = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_ACPI_POWER_BTN = (1 << 0),
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_GUEST_AGENT = (1 << 1),
Also define some flags for the reboot API
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_DEFAULT = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_ACPI_POWER_BTN = (1 << 0),
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_GUEST_AGENT = (1 << 1),
Although these two APIs currently have the same flags, using
separate enums allows them to expand separately in the future.
Add stub impls of the new API for all existing drivers
Most severe here is a latent (but currently untriggered) memory leak
if any hypervisor ever adds a string interface property; the
remainder are mainly cosmetic.

The new API is named as "virDomainBlockResize", intending to add
support for qemu monitor command "block_resize" (both HMP and QMP).
Similar with APIs like "virDomainSetMemoryFlags", the units for
argument "size" is kilobytes.
This API can be used to check if the socket associated with
virConnectPtr is still open or it was closed (probably because keepalive
protocol timed out). If there the connection is local (i.e., no socket
is associated with the connection, it is trivially always alive.
virConnectSetKeepAlive public API can be used by a client connecting to
remote server to start using keepalive protocol. The API is handled
directly by remote driver and not transmitted over the wire to the
server.
The virDomainOpenGraphics API allows a libvirt client to pass in
a file descriptor for an open socket pair, and get it connected
to the graphics display of the guest. This is limited to working
with local libvirt hypervisors connected over a UNIX domain
socket, since it will use UNIX FD passing

The previous API addition allowed traversal up the hierarchy;
this one makes it easier to traverse down the hierarchy.
In the python bindings, virDomainSnapshotNumChildren can be
generated, but virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames had to copy
from the hand-written example of virDomainSnapshotListNames.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSnapshotNumChildren)

* python/generator.py (skip_impl, nameFixup): Update lists.
* python/libvirt-override-api.xml: Likewise.
* python/libvirt-override.c
(libvirt_virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames): New wrapper function.
Although a client can already obtain a snapshot's parent by
dumping and parsing the xml, then doing a snapshot lookup by
name, it is more efficient to get the parent in one step, which
in turn will make operations that must traverse a snapshot
hierarchy easier to perform.

Declare.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotGetParent): New function.
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export it.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSnapshotGetParent): New callback.
These functions access internals of the opaque object, and do
not need any rpc counterpart. It could be argued that we should
have provided these when snapshot objects were first introduced,
since all the other vir*Ptr objects have at least a GetName accessor.

Modifying the xml on either save or restore only gets you so
far - you have to remember to 'virsh dumpxml dom' just prior
to the 'virsh save' in order to have an xml file worth modifying
that won't be rejected due to abi breaks. To make this more
powerful, we need a way to grab the xml embedded within a state
file, and from there, it's not much harder to also support
modifying a state file in-place.
Also, virDomainGetXMLDesc didn't document its flags.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New prototypes.

This introduces new API virDomainDestroyFlags to allow
domain destroying with flags, as the existing API virDomainDestroy
misses flags.
The set of flags is defined in virDomainDestroyFlagsValues enum,
which is currently commented, because it is empty.
Calling this API with no flags set (@flags == 0) is equivalent calling
virDomainDestroy.
In order to choose whether to use O_DIRECT when saving a domain image
to a file, we need a new flag. But virDomainSave was implemented
before our policy of all new APIs having a flag argument. Likewise
for virDomainRestore when restoring from a file.
The new flag name is chosen as CACHE_BYPASS so as not to preclude
a future solution that uses posix_fadvise once the Linux kernel has
a smarter implementation of that interface.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainCreateFlags)
(virDomainCoreDumpFlags): Add a flag.
(virDomainSaveFlags, virDomainRestoreFlags): New prototypes.

* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSaveFlags, virDrvDomainRestoreFlags):
New driver callbacks.
This introduces a new API virDomainUndefineFlags to control the
domain undefine process, as the existing API virDomainUndefine
doesn't support flags.
Currently only flag VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE is supported.
If the domain has a managed save image, including
VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE in @flags will also remove that
file, and omitting the flag will cause undefine process to fail.
This patch also changes the behavior of virDomainUndefine, if the
domain has a managed save image, the undefine will be refused.
We already have a public virDomainPinVcpu, which implies that
Pin and Vcpu are treated as separate words. Unreleased commit
e261987c introduced virDomainGetVcpupinInfo as the first public
API that used Vcpupin, although we had prior internal uses of
that spelling. For consistency, change the spelling to be two
words everywhere, regardless of whether pin comes first or last.

Suggested by Matthias Bolte.
This patch introduces a new libvirt API (virDomainGetVcpupinInfo),
as a counterpart to virDomainPinVcpuFlags.
We can use virDomainGetVcpus API to retrieve CPU affinity information,
but can't use this API against inactive domains (at least in case of KVM),
as it lacks a flags parameter.
The usual thing is to add a new virDomainGetVcpusFlags, but that API name
is already occupied by the counterpart to virDomainGetMaxVcpus, which
has a completely different signature.
The virDomainGetVcpupinInfo is the new API to retrieve CPU affinity
information of active and inactive domains. While the usual convention
is to list an array before its length, this API violates that rule
in order to be more like virDomainGetVcpus (where maxinfo was doing
double-duty as the length of two different arrays).

This is the API agreed on in:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-May/msg00026.html
(with a slight name change to use "...begin" rather than
"...start"). This implements transactional changes to the host network
config. When a transaction is begun with ncf_change_begin(), all other
netcf APIs will continue to work as they always have, but a snapshot
of the existing config will be taken, allowing reversion (rollback,
using ncf_change_rollback()) to the exact state of config at the time
ncf_change_begin() was called. Alternately, if it's determined that
the new changes are acceptable, ncf_change_commit() can be called,
which will eliminate the snapshot and make the changes permanent.
As a failsafe measure, if neither ncf_change_commit() or
ncf_change_rollback() is called by the next time the system reboots,
the netcf-transaction initscript will be automatically called to
rollback the changes.
