Currently CPU topology may only be specified together with CPU model:
<cpu match='exact'>
<model>name</model>
<topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='3'/>
</cpu>
This patch allows for CPU topology specification without the need for
also specifying CPU model:
<cpu>
<topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='3'/>
</cpu>
'match' attribute and 'model' element are made optional with the
restriction that 'match' attribute has to be set when 'model' is
present.

When comparing x86 CPUs, features with 'disabled' policy were mistakenly
required to be supported by the host CPU.
Likewise, features with 'force' policy which were supported by host CPU
would make CPUs incompatible if 'strict' match was used by guest CPU.
This patch fixes both issues.

QEMU's command line equivalent for the following domain XML fragment
<vcpus>2</vcpus>
<cpu ...>
...
<topology sockets='1' cores='2', threads='1'/>
</cpu>
is
-smp 2,sockets=1,cores=2,threads=1
This syntax was introduced in QEMU-0.12.
Version 2 changes:
- -smp argument build split into a separate function
- always add ",sockets=S,cores=C,threads=T" to -smp if qemu supports it
- use qemuParseCommandLineKeywords for command line parsing
Version 3 changes:
- ADD_ARG_LIT => ADD_ARG and line reordering in qemudBuildCommandLine
- rebased

Current version expects name=value,... list and when an incorrect string
such as "a,b,c=d" would be parsed as "a,b,c" keyword with "d" value
without reporting any error, which is probably not the expected
behavior.
This patch adds an extra argument called allowEmptyValue, which if
non-zero will permit keywords with no value; "a,b=c,,d=" will be parsed
as follows:
keyword value
"a" NULL
"b" "c"
"" NULL
"d" ""
In case allowEmptyValue is zero, the string is required to contain
name=value pairs only; retvalues is guaranteed to contain non-NULL
pointers. Now, "a,b,c=d" will result in an error.

Replace
-balloon virtio
With
-device virtio-balloon-pci,id=balloon0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3
This allows it to get correct assigned PCI address as declared in
previous patch
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Convert Virtio ballon to -device and
give it an explicit PCI address
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-*args: Add in virtio balloon
where appropriate
Instead of relying on QEMU to assign PCI addresses and then querying
them with 'info pci', manually assign all PCI addresses before starting
the guest. These addresses are not stable across reboots. That will
come in a later patch
NB, the PIIX3 (IDE, FDC, ISA-Bridge) will always have slot 1 and
VGA will always have slot 2. We declare the Virtio Balloon gets
slot 3, and then all remaining slots are for configured devices.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: If -device is supported, then assign all PCI
addresses when building the command line
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Don't query monitor for PCI addresses if
they have already been assigned
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-hostdev-pci-address-device.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-device.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-sound-device.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-watchdog-device.args: Update
to include PCI slot/bus information
QEMU always configures a VGA card. If no video card is included in
the libvirt XML, it is neccessary to explicitly turn off the default
using -vga none
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Pass -vga none if no video card is configured
* tests/qemuargv2xmltest.c, tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: Test for
handling -vga none.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-nographics-vga.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-nographics-vga.xml: Test
data files
Not all QEMU builds default to SDL graphics for their display.
Newer QEMU now has an explicit -sdl flag, which we can use to
explicitly request SDL intead of relying on the default. This
protects libvirt against unexpected changes in graphics default
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Probe for -sdl
flag and use it if it is found
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: Add SDL flag to tests
The old syntax was
-chardev SOMECONFIG
-nic user,guestfwd=tcp:IP:PORT-chardev:CHARDEV
The new syntax is
-chardev SOMECONFIG
-netdev user,guestfwd=tcp:IP:PORT,chardev=ID,id=user-ID
The old syntax was
-usbdevice host:PRODUCT:VENDOR
Or
-usbdevice host:BUS.DEV
The new syntax is
-device usb-host,product=PRODUCT,vendor=VENDOR
Or
-device usb-host,hostbus=BUS,hostaddr=DEV
The previous syntax was severely limited in its options
-usbdevice disk:/home/berrange/output.img
The new syntax is the same as for other disk types
-drive file=/home/berrange/output.img,if=none,id=usb-1,index=1
-device usb-storage,drive=usb-1
Again, the index= arg is wrong here, and will be removed in a
later merge
The current syntax uses a pair of args
-net nic,macaddr=52:54:00:56:6c:55,vlan=3,model=pcnet,name=pcnet.0
-net user,vlan=3,name=user.0
The new syntax does not need the vlan craziness anymore, and
so has a simplified pair of args
-netdev user,id=user.0
-device pcnet,netdev=user.0,id=pcnet.0,mac=52:54:00:56:6c:55,addr=<PCI SLOT>
The current preferred syntax for disk drives uses
-drive file=/vms/plain.qcow,if=virtio,index=0,boot=on,format=qcow
The new syntax splits this up into a pair of linked args
-drive file=/vms/plain.qcow,if=none,id=drive-virtio-0,format=qcow2
-device virtio-blk-pci,drive=drive-virtio-0,id=virtio-0,addr=<PCI SLOT>
SCSI/IDE devices also get a bus property linking them to the
controller
-device scsi-disk,drive=drive-scsi0-0-0,id=scsi0-0-0,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=0
-device ide-drive,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0,bus=ide0,unit=0
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,
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

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@

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.
