Defining a domain with a SCSI disk attached via a hostdev
tag and a source address unit value longer than two digits
causes an error when editing the domain with virsh edit,
even if no changes are made to the domain definition.
The error suggests invalid XML, somewhere:
# virsh edit lmb_guest
error: XML document failed to validate against schema:
Unable to validate doc against /usr/local/share/libvirt/schemas/domain.rng
Extra element devices in interleave
Element domain failed to validate content
The virt-xml-validate tool fails with a similar error:
# virt-xml-validate lmb_guest.xml
Relax-NG validity error : Extra element devices in interleave
lmb_guest.xml:17: element devices: Relax-NG validity error :
Element domain failed to validate content
lmb_guest.xml fails to validate
The hostdev tag requires a source address to be specified,
which includes bus, target, and unit address attributes.
According to the SCSI Architecture Model spec (section
4.9 of SAM-2), a LUN address is 64 bits and thus could be
up to 20 decimal digits long. Unfortunately, the XML
schema limits this string to just two digits. Similarly,
the target field can be up to 32 bits in length, which
would be 10 decimal digits.

Since the reference unit and target fields are used in
several places in the XML schema, create a separate one
specific for SCSI Logical Units that will permit the
greater length. This permits both the validation utility
and the virsh edit command to succeed when a hostdev
tag is included.

A new feature that can be turned on or off.
The QEMU machine vmport option allows to set the VMWare IO port
emulation. This emulation is useful for absolute pointer input when the
guest has vmware input drivers, and is enabled by default for kvm.
However it is unnecessary for Spice-enabled VM, since the agent already
handles absolute pointer and multi-monitors. Furthermore, it prevents
Spice from switching to relative input since the regular ps/2 pointer
driver is replaced by the vmware driver. It is thus advised to disable
vmport when using a Spice VM. This will permit the Spice client to
switch from absolute to relative pointer, as it may be required for
certain games or applications.
With iothreadid's allowing any 'id' value for an iothread_id, the
iothreadsched code needs a slight adjustment to allow for "any"
unsigned int value in order to create the bitmap of ids that will
have scheduler adjustments. Adjusted the doc description as well.
Remove the iothreadspin array from cputune and replace with a cpumask
to be stored in the iothreadids list.
Adjust the test output because our printing goes in order of the iothreadids
list now.
Adding a new XML element 'iothreadids' in order to allow defining
specific IOThread ID's rather than relying on the algorithm to assign
IOThread ID's starting at 1 and incrementing to iothreads count.
This will allow future patches to be able to add new IOThreads by
a specific iothread_id and of course delete any exisiting IOThread.
Each iothreadids element will have 'n' <iothread> children elements
which will have attribute "id". The "id" will allow for definition
of any "valid" (eg > 0) iothread_id value.
On input, if any <iothreadids> <iothread>'s are provided, they will
be marked so that we only print out what we read in.
On input, if no <iothreadids> are provided, the PostParse code will
self generate a list of ID's starting at 1 and going to the number
of iothreads defined for the domain (just like the current algorithm
numbering scheme). A future patch will rework the existing algorithm
to make use of the iothreadids list.
On output, only print out the <iothreadids> if they were read in.

This patch preemptively forbids use of the <memory> device in individual

supported.
To enable memory hotplug the maximum memory size and slot count need to
be specified. As qemu supports now other units than mebibytes when
specifying memory, use the new interface in this case.
Add a XML element that will allow to specify maximum supportable memory
and the count of memory slots to use with memory hotplug.
To avoid possible confusion and misuse of the new element this patch
also explicitly forbids the use of the maxMemory setting in individual
drivers's post parse callbacks. This limitation will be lifted when the

VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED. Because we chose to store memory
limits as unsigned long long, we cannot use -1 to represent unlimited.
It's much easier for us to say that everything greater than
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED means unlimited and leave 0 as valid
value despite that it makes no sense to set limit to 0.

The vram attribute was introduced to set the video memory but it is

This patch updates the documentation to reflect current code in libvirt

It also fixes existing strange default value for VGA devices 9MB to 16MB
because the video ram should be rounded to power of two.
The change of default value could affect migrations but I found out that
QEMU always round the video ram to power of two internally so it's safe
to change the default value to the next closest power of two and also
silently correct every domain XML definition. And it's also safe because

To be able to express some use cases of the RBD backing with libvirt, we

This patch adds a XML element to select a storage source snapshot for

Since 1.2.8 it's possible to use OVMF on domains. Moreover, it's
possible to have libvirt create NVRAM file per domain. Later,
when domain is undefined, the file is removed too. However,
things are a bit complicated when domain's transient. There's no
undefine to transient domains. There are two options: 1) leave
the file behind and let mgmt app remove it. 2) remove it
automatically as domain dies.
But, in some scenarios mgmt app may want to preserve the file,
copy it somewhere safe, and then copy it back when the domain is
starting again. And this wouldn't be possible with case 2). So,
even though case 1) leaves some files behind (possibly undeleted
for a long time), the files themselves are small (128K each). And
data loss is worse than full disk, isn't it?

This new attribute will control whether or not libvirt will pay
attention to guest notifications about changes to network device mac
addresses and receive filters. The default for this is 'no' (for
security reasons). If it is set to 'yes' *and* the specified device
model and connection support it (currently only macvtap+virtio) then
libvirt will watch for NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED events, and when it
receives one, it will issue a query-rx-filter command, retrieve the
result, and modify the host-side macvtap interface's mac address and
unicast/multicast filters accordingly.
The functionality behind this attribute will be in a later patch. This

When using split UEFI image, it may come handy if libvirt manages per

domain startup process, if it's determined that domain needs _VARS
file it's copied from this master _VARS file. The location of the
master file is configurable in qemu.conf.
Temporary, on per domain basis the location of master NVRAM file can
be overridden by this @template attribute I'm inventing to the

differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to
reflect the fact that some images are RO.
Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two
modes:
1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.
2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files
The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the
configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need
yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional
attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable
store file.

Add a new disk "driver" attribute "iothread" to be parsed as the thread
number for the disk to use. In order to more easily facilitate the usage
and configuration of the iothread, a "zero" for the attribute indicates
iothreads are not supported for the device and a positive value indicates
the specific thread to try and use.
Introduce XML to allowing adding iothreads to the domain. These can be
used by virtio-blk-pci devices in order to assign a specific thread to
handle the workload for the device. The iothreads are the official
implementation of the virtio-blk Data Plane that's been in tech preview
for QEMU.
QEMU 2.1 added support for the kvm=off option to the -cpu command,
allowing the KVM hypervisor signature to be hidden from the guest.
This enables disabling of some paravirualization features in the
guest as well as allowing certain drivers which test for the
hypervisor to load. Domain XML syntax is as follows:

Introduce a new structure to handle an iSCSI host device based on the
existing virDomainHostdevSubsysSCSI by adding a "protocol='iscsi'" to
the <source/> element. The existing scsi_host subsystem RNG was modified
to read an optional "protocol='adapter'", although it won't be written
out nor is it documented as an option (by choice).
The new hostdev structure mimics the existing <disk/> element for an
iSCSI device (network) device. New XML is:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='yes'>
<source protocol='iscsi' name='iqn.1992-01.com.example'>
<host name='example.org' port='3260'/>
<auth username='myname'>
<secret type='iscsi' usage='mycluster_myname'/>

A future patch is going to wire up qemu active block commit jobs;
but as they have similar events and are canceled/pivoted in the
same way as block copy jobs, it is easiest to track all bookkeeping
for the commit job by reusing the <mirror> element. This patch
adds domain XML to track which job was responsible for creating a
mirroring situation, and adds a job='copy' attribute to all
existing uses of <mirror>. Along the way, it also massages the
qemu monitor backend to read the new field in order to generate
the correct type of libvirt job (even though it requires a
future patch to actually cause a qemu event that can be reported
as an active commit). It also prepares to update persistent XML
to match changes made to live XML when a copy completes.

Doing a blockcopy operation across a libvirtd restart is not very
robust at the moment. In particular, we are clearing the <mirror>
element prior to telling qemu to finish the job. Also, thanks to the
ability to request async completion, the user can easily regain
control prior to qemu actually finishing the effort, and they should
be able to poll the domain XML to see if the job is still going.
A future patch will fix things to actually wait until qemu is done
before modifying the XML to reflect the job completion. But since
qemu issues identical BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETE events regardless of whether
the job was cancelled (kept the original disk) or completed (pivoted
to the new disk), we have to track which of the two operations were
used to end the job. Furthermore, we'd like to avoid attempts to
end a job where we are already waiting on an earlier request to qemu
to end the job. Likewise, if we miss the qemu event (perhaps because
it arrived during a libvirtd restart), we still need enough state
recorded to be able to determine how to modify the domain XML once
we reconnect to qemu and manually learn whether the job still exists.
Although this patch doesn't actually fix the problem, it is a
preliminary step that makes it possible to track whether a job
has already begun steps towards completion.

Disk type 'lun' enables SCSI command passthrough for a disk. We stated
that it works only with "block" disks. Qemu supports it also when using
the iSCSI protocol.
LXC network devices can now be assigned a custom NIC device name on the
container side. For example, this is configured with:
<interface type='network'>
<source network='default'/>
<guest dev="eth1"/>
</interface>
In this example the network card will appear as eth1 in the guest.
In XML format, by definition, order of fields should not matter, so
order of parsing the elements doesn't affect the end result. When
specifying guest NUMA cells, we depend only on the order of the 'cell'
elements. With this patch all older domain XMLs are parsed as before,
but with the 'id' attribute they are parsed and formatted according to
that field. This will be useful when we have tuning settings for
particular guest NUMA node.

Now that we track a disk mirror as a virStorageSource, we might
as well update the XML to theoretically allow any type of
mirroring destination (not just a local file). A later patch
will also be reusing <mirror> to track the block commit of the
top layer of a chain, which is another case where libvirt needs
to update the backing chain after the job is finally pivoted,
and since backing chains can have network backing files as the
destination to commit into, it makes more sense to display that
in the XML.
This patch changes output-only XML; it was already documented
that <mirror> does not affect a domain definition at this point
(because qemu doesn't provide persistent bitmaps yet). Any
application that was starting a block copy job with older libvirt
and then relying on the domain XML to determine if it was
complete will no longer be able to access the file= and format=
attributes of mirror that were previously used. However, this is
not going to be a problem in practice: the only time a block copy
job works is on a transient domain, and any app that is managing
a transient domain probably already does enough of its own
bookkeeping to know which file it is mirroring into without
having to re-read it from the libvirt XML. The one thing that
was likely to be used in a mirroring job was the ready=
attribute, which is unchanged. Meanwhile, I made sure the schema
and parser still accept the old format, even if we no longer
output it, so that upgrading from an older version of libvirt is
seamless.

Recent autotest/virt-test testing on f20 discovered an anomaly in how
the bandwidth options are documented and used. This was discovered due
to a bug fix in the /sbin/tc utility found in iproute-3.11.0.1 (on f20)
in which overflow was actually caught and returned as an error. The fix
was first introduced in iproute-3.10 (search on iproute2 commit 'a303853e').
The autotest/virt-test test for virsh domiftune was attempting to send
the largest unsigned integer value (4294967295) for maximum value
testing. The libvirt xml implementation was designed to manage values
in kilobytes thus when this value was passed to /sbin/tc, it (now)
properly rejected the 4294967295kbps value.
Investigation of the problem discovered that formatdomain.html.in and
formatnetwork.html.in described the elements and property types slightly
differently, although they use the same code - virNetDevBandwidthParseRate()
(shared by portgroups, domains, and networks xml parsers). Rather than
have the descriptions in two places, this patch will combine and reword
the description under formatnetwork.html.in and have formatdomain.html.in
link to that description.
This documentation faux pas was continued into the virsh man page where
the bandwidth description for both 'attach-interface' and 'domiftune'
did not indicate the format of each value, thus leading to the test using
largest unsigned integer value assuming "bps" rather than "kbps", which
ultimately was wrong.

It doesn't make sense to fail if the SCSI host device is specified
as "shareable" explicitly between domains (NB, it works if and only
if the device is specified as "shareable" for *all* domains,
otherwise it fails).
To fix the problem, this patch introduces an array for virSCSIDevice
struct, which records all the names of domain which are using the
device (note that the recorded domains must specify the device as
shareable). And the change on the data struct brings on many
subsequent changes in the code.
Prior to this patch, the "shareable" tag didn't work as expected,
it actually work like "non-shareable". So this patch also added notes
in formatdomain.html to declare the fact.

Prefer using VFIO (if available) to the legacy KVM device passthrough.
With this patch a PCI passthrough device without the driver configured

KVM passthrough is checked and error is reported if it's not available.
Since 76b644c when the support for RAM filesystems was introduced,
libvirt accepted the following XML:
<source usage='1024' unit='KiB'/>
This was parsed correctly and internally stored in bytes, but it
was formatted as (with an extra 's'):
<source usage='1024' units='KiB'/>
When read again, this was treated as if the units were missing,
meaning libvirt was unable to parse its own XML correctly.
The usage attribute was documented as being in KiB, but it was not
scaled if the unit was missing. Transient domains still worked,
because this was balanced by an extra 'k' in the mount options.
This patch:
Changes the parser to use 'units' instead of 'unit', as the latter
was never documented (fixing persistent domains) and some programs
(libvirt-glib, libvirt-sandbox) already parse the 'units' attribute.
Removes the extra 'k' from the tmpfs mount options, which is needed
because now we parse our own XML correctly.

According to VMWare's documentation 'cdrom-raw' is an acceptable value
for deviceType for a CD-ROM drive. The documentation states that the VMX
configuration for a CD-ROM deviceType is as follows:
ide|scsi(n):(n).deviceType = "cdrom-raw|atapi-cdrom|cdrom-image"
From the documentation it appears the following is true:
- cdrom-image = Provides the ISO to the VM
- atapi-cdrom = Provides a NEC emulated ATAPI CD-ROM on top of the host
CD-ROM
- cdrom-raw = Passthru for a host CD-ROM drive. Allows CD-R burning from
within the guest.
A CD-ROM prior to this patch would always provide an 'atapi-cdrom' is
modeled as:
<disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
This patch allows the 'device' attribute to be set to 'lun' for a raw
acccess CD-ROM such as:
<disk type='block' device='lun'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
This corresponds to '-sd' and '-drive if=sd' on the qemu command line.
Needed for many ARM boards which don't provide any other way to
pass in storage.
Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
which is the same behaviour as before.
To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
'-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.
