9d3859d9d7 rpm: libvirt-daemon-driver-libxl must obsolete libvirt-daemon-driver-xen
Snce the xen driver was deleted we need to ensure that the old
libvirt-daemon-driver-xen sub-RPM gets removed on upgrade. We
achieve this my making libvirt-daemon-driver-libxl obsolete it.

We don't add a Provides: too, because libvirt-daemon-driver-libxl
is not a functionally identical replacement, since we don't want
to satisfy deps for 3rd party apps that have a Requires on the
libvirt-daemon-driver-xen RPM.

ed1c45b0ba qemu: migration: Don't crash on access to 'current' job
When a VM is destroyed while being migrated (waiting in
qemuMigrationSrcWaitForCompletion) the private object cleanup code frees
the 'current' job info. Since the migration code attempts to setup
various aspects of the current job even on failure this results into a
crash.

Job data is cleared in qemuDomainObjPrivateDataClear since commit
888aa4b6b9

Fix this by skipping all of the code which requires the qemu process to
be alive if the VM is not active any more.

ce5aebeacd nwfilter: increase pcap buffer size to be compatible with TPACKET_V3
When an nwfilter rule sets the parameter CTRL_IP_LEARNING to "dhcp",
this turns on the "dhcpsnoop" thread, which uses libpcap to monitor
traffic on the domain's tap device and extract the IP address from the
DHCP response.

If libpcap on the host is built with HAVE_TPACKET3 defined (to enable
support for TPACKET_V3), the dhcpsnoop code's initialization of the
libpcap socket would fail with the following error:

  virNWFilterSnoopDHCPOpen:1134 : internal error: pcap_setfilter: can't remove kernel filter: Bad file descriptor

It turns out that this was because TPACKET_V3 requires a larger buffer
size than libvirt was setting (we were setting it to 128k). Changing
the buffer size to 256k eliminates the error, and the dhcpsnoop thread
once again works properly.

A fuller explanation of why TPACKET_V3 requires such a large buffer,
for future git spelunkers:

libpcap calls setsockopt(... SOL_PACKET, PACKET_RX_RING...) to setup a
ring buffer for receiving packets; two of the attributes sent to this
API are called tp_frame_size, and tp_frame_nr. If libpcap was built
with HAVE_TPACKET3 defined, tp_trame_size is set to MAXIMUM_SNAPLEN
(defined in libpcap sources as 262144) and tp_frame_nr is set to:

 [the buffer size we set, i.e. PCAP_BUFFERSIZE i.e. 262144] / tp_frame_size.

So if PCAP_BUFFERSIZE < MAXIMUM_SNAPLEN, then tp_frame_nr (the number
of frames in the ring buffer) is 0, which is nonsensical. This same
value is later used as a multiplier to determine the size for a call
to malloc() (which would also fail).

(NB: if HAVE_TPACKET3 is *not* defined, then tp_frame_size is set to
the snaplen set by the user (in our case 576) plus a small amount to
account for ethernet headers, so 256k is far more than adequate)

Since the TPACKET_V3 code in libpcap actually reads multiple packets
into each frame, it's not a problem to have only a single frame
(especially when we are monitoring such infrequent traffic), so it's
okay to set this relatively small buffer size (in comparison to the
default, which is 2MB), which is important since every guest using
dhcp snooping in a nwfilter rule will hold 2 of these buffers for the
entire life of the guest.

Thanks to Christian Ehrhardt for discovering that buffer size was the
problem (this was not at all obvious from the error that was logged!)

looking at the dump of parameters which will be reset after migration,
but sets the parameters in the list of new parameters. As
qemuMigrationParamsSetString did not set the 'set' property, the TLS

3b90d0dc1a util: improve virNetDevTapGetRealDeviceName
virNetDevTapGetRealDeviceName() is used on FreeBSD because interface
names (such as one sees in output of tools like ifconfig(8)) might not
match their /dev entity names, and for bhyve we need the latter.

Current implementation is not very efficient because in order to find
/dev name, it goes through all /dev/tap* entries and tries to issue
TAPGIFNAME ioctl on it. Not only this is slow, but also there's a bug in
this implementation when more than one NIC is passed to a VM: once we
find the tap interface we're looking for, we set its state to UP because
opening it for issuing ioctl sets it DOWN, even if it was UP before.
When we have more than 1 NIC for a VM, we have only last one UP because
others remain DOWN after unsuccessful attempts to match interface name.

New implementation just uses sysctl(3), so it should be faster and
won't make interfaces go down to get name.

d94640ddad driver: tighten check for whether loadable module exists or not
Currently we do a access(R_OK) check to see whether a loadable module
exists, treating failure as non-fatal. This is unreasonably loose, as a
module which exists but has had incorrect permissions set will turn into
a silent skip. We only want to skip loading if the module genuinely does
not exist on disk, due to the optional package not being installed.

Furthermore, checking the return value of virDriverLoadModuleFile() is
not a suitable witness that the module does not exist. This method can
return NULL if dlopen() fails, for example due to being unable to
resolve symbols in the library. This is should always be reported as an
error because it is a sign of the bad installation where either the
module build doesn't match the libvirtd build, or where some 3rd party
libraries are missing or broken.

Both these problems can be fixed by using virFileExists in the caller
instead.

31daccf5a5 virNumaGetHugePageInfo: Return page_avail and page_free as ULL
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1569678

On some large systems (with ~400GB of RAM) it is possible for
unsigned int to overflow in which case we report invalid number
of 4K pages pool size. Switch to unsigned long long.

We hit overflow in virNumaGetPages when doing:

    huge_page_sum += 1024 * page_size * page_avail;

because although 'huge_page_sum' is an unsigned long long, the
page_size and page_avail are both unsigned int, so the promotion
to unsigned long long doesn't happen until the sum has been
calculated, by which time we've already overflowed.

Turning page_avail into a unsigned long long is not strictly
needed until we need ability to represent more than 2^32
4k pages, which equates to 16 TB of RAM. That's not
outside the realm of possibility, so makes sense that we
change it to unsigned long long to avoid future problems.

return a locked/ref counted object so that the callers can
always do the same cleanup logic to call virDomainObjEndAPI.
Makes accessing the objects much more consistent.

NB:
There were 2 callers (lxcDomainLookupByID and qemuDomainLookupByID)
that were already using the ByID name, but not virDomainObjEndAPI -
these were changed as well in this update/patch.

fd9ef3b31e conf: Rework/rename virDomainObjListFindByUUIDRef
Now that every caller is using virDomainObjListFindByUUIDRef,
let's just remove it and keep the name as virDomainObjListFindByUUID.

fa9ba3b8ca git: add config file telling git-publish how to send patches
The "git-publish" tool is a useful git extension for sending patch
series for code review. It automatically creates versioned tags
each time code on a branch is sent, so that there is a record of
each version. It also remembers the cover letter so it does not
need re-entering each time the series is reposted.

With this config file present it is now sufficient[1] to run

  $ git publish

to send all patches in a branch to the list for review

[1] Assuming your $HOME/.gitconfig has an SMTP server listed
at least e.g.

   [sendemail]
        smtpserver = smtp.example.com
