This reverts commit 2841e675.
It turns out that adding the host_mtu field to the PCI capabilities in
the guest bumps the length of PCI capabilities beyond the 32 byte
boundary, so the virtio-net device gets 64 bytes of ioport space
instead of 32, which offsets the address of all the other following
devices. Migration doesn't work very well when the location and length
of PCI capabilities of devices is changed between source and
destination.
This means that we need to make sure that the absence/presence of
host_mtu on the qemu commandline always matches between source and
destination, which means that we need to make setting of host_mtu an
opt-in thing (it can't happen automatically when the bridge being used
has a non-default MTU, which is what commit 2841e675 implemented).
I do want to re-implement this feature with an <mtu auto='on'/>
setting, but probably won't backport that to any stable branches, so
I'm first reverting the original commit, and that revert can be pushed
to the few releases that have been made since the original (3.1.0 -
3.3.0)

The QEMU default is GICv2, and some of the code in libvirt
relies on the exact value. Stop pretending that's not the
case and use GICv2 explicitly where needed.

Add kernel_irqchip=split/on to the QEMU command line
and a capability that looks for it in query-command-line-options
output. For the 'split' option, use a version check
since it cannot be reasonably probed.

This patch maps /domain/cpu/cache element into -cpu parameters:
- <cache mode='passthrough'/> is translated to host-cache-info=on
- <cache level='3' mode='emulate'/> is transformed into l3-cache=on
- <cache mode='disable'/> is turned in host-cache-info=off,l3-cache=off
Any other <cache> element is forbidden.
The tricky part is detecting whether QEMU supports the CPU properties.
The 'host-cache-info' property is introduced in v2.4.0-1389-ge265e3e480,
earlier QEMU releases enabled host-cache-info by default and had no way
to disable it. If the property is present, it defaults to 'off' for any
QEMU until at least 2.9.0.
The 'l3-cache' property was introduced later by v2.7.0-200-g14c985cffa.
Earlier versions worked as if l3-cache=off was passed. For any QEMU
until at least 2.9.0 l3-cache is 'off' by default.
QEMU 2.9.0 was the first release which supports probing both properties
by running device-list-properties with typename=host-x86_64-cpu. Older
QEMU releases did not support device-list-properties command for CPU
devices. Thus we can't really rely on probing them and we can just use
query-cpu-model-expansion QMP command as a witness.
Because the cache property probing is only reliable for QEMU >= 2.9.0
when both are already supported for quite a few releases, we let QEMU
report an error if a specific cache mode is explicitly requested. The
other mode (or both if a user requested CPU cache to be disabled) is
explicitly turned off for QEMU >= 2.9.0 to avoid any surprises in case
the QEMU defaults change. Any older QEMU already turns them off so not
doing so explicitly does not make any harm.

Depending on the architecture, requirements for ACPI and UEFI can
be different; more specifically, while on x86 UEFI requires ACPI,
on aarch64 it's the other way around.
Enforce these requirements when validating the domain, and make
the error message more accurate by mentioning that they're not
necessarily applicable to all architectures.
Several aarch64 test cases had to be tweaked because they would
have failed the validation step otherwise.
Instead of having a separate function, we can simply return
zero from the existing qemuDomainGetMemLockLimitBytes() to
signal the caller that the memory locking limit doesn't need
to be set for the guest.
Having a single function instead of two makes it less likely
that we will use the wrong value, which is exactly what
happened when we started applying the limit that was meant
for VFIO-using guests to <memoryBacking><locked>-using
guests.
QEMU allows for TSC frequency to be explicitly set to enable migration
with invtsc (migration fails if the destination QEMU cannot set the
exact same frequency used when starting the domain on the source host).
Libvirt already supports setting the TSC frequency in the XML using
<clock>
<timer name='tsc' frequency='1234567890'/>
</clock>
which will be transformed into
-cpu Model,tsc-frequency=1234567890

The disk tuning group parameter is ignored by qemu if no other
throttling options are set. Reject such configuration, since the name
would not be honored after setting parameters via the live tuning API.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1433180
When checking capabilities for qemu we need to check whether subsets of
the disk throttling settings are supported. Extract the checks into a

QEMU 2.9 introduces the pcie-root-port device, which is

For NVDIMM devices it is optionally possible to specify the size

So, majority of the code is just ready as-is. Well, with one
slight change: differentiate between dimm and nvdimm in places
like device alias generation, generating the command line and so
on.
Speaking of the command line, we also need to append 'nvdimm=on'
to the '-machine' argument so that the nvdimm feature is
advertised in the ACPI tables properly.

NVDIMM is new type of memory introduced into QEMU 2.6. The idea
is that we have a Non-Volatile memory module that keeps the data
persistent across domain reboots.
At the domain XML level, we already have some representation of
'dimm' modules. Long story short, NVDIMM will utilize the
existing <memory/> element that lives under <devices/> by adding
a new attribute 'nvdimm' to the existing @model and introduce a
new <path/> element for <source/> while reusing other fields. The
resulting XML would appear as:
<memory model='nvdimm'>
<source>
<path>/tmp/nvdimm</path>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>523264</size>
<node>0</node>
</target>
<address type='dimm' slot='0'/>
</memory>
So far, this is just a XML parser/formatter extension. QEMU
driver implementation is in the next commit.

Our documentation states that the chardev logging file is truncated
unless append='on' is specified. QEMU also behaves the same way and
truncates the file unless we provide the argument. The new virlogd
implementation did not honor if the argument was missing and continued
to append to the file.
Truncate the file even when the 'append' attribute is not present to
behave the same with both implementations and adhere to the docs.

qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses() hardcoded the assumption
that the only way to support devices on a non-zero bus is
to add one or more pci-bridges; however, since we now
support a large selection of PCI controllers that can be
used instead, the assumption is no longer true.
Moreover, this check was always redundant, because the
only sensible time to check for the availability of
pci-bridge is when building the QEMU command line, and
such a check is of course already in place.
In fact, there were *two* such checks, but since one of
the two was relying on the incorrect assumption explained
above, and it was redundant anyway, it has been dropped.
When switching over the values in the virDomainControllerModelPCI
enumeration, make sure the proper cast is in place so that the
compiler can warn us when the coverage is not exaustive.
For the same reason, fold some unstructured checks (performed by
comparing directly against some values in the enumeration) inside
an existing switch statement.
Add a new attribute 'rendernode' to <gl> spice element.

libvirt was able to set the host_mtu option when an MTU was explicitly
given in the interface config (with <mtu size='n'/>), set the MTU of a
libvirt network in the network config (with the same named
subelement), and would automatically set the MTU of any tap device to
the MTU of the network.
This patch ties that all together (for networks based on tap devices
and either Linux host bridges or OVS bridges) by learning the MTU of
the network (i.e. the bridge) during qemuInterfaceBridgeConnect(), and
returning that value so that it can then be passed to
qemuBuildNicDevStr(); qemuBuildNicDevStr() then sets host_mtu in the
interface's commandline options.
The result is that a higher MTU for all guests connecting to a
particular network will be plumbed top to bottom by simply changing
the MTU of the network (in libvirt's config for libvirt-managed
networks, or directly on the bridge device for simple host bridges or
OVS bridges managed outside of libvirt).
One question I have about this - it occurred to me that in the case of
migrating a guest from a host with an older libvirt to one with a
newer libvirt, the guest may have *not* had the host_mtu option on the
older machine, but *will* have it on the newer machine. I'm curious if
this could lead to incompatibilities between source and destination (I
guess it all depends on whether or not the setting of host_mtu has a
practical effect on a guest that is already running - Maxime?)
Likewise, we could run into problems when migrating from a newer
libvirt to older libvirt - The guest would have been told of the
higher MTU on the newer libvirt, then migrated to a host that didn't
understand <mtu size='blah'/>. (If this really is a problem, it would
be a problem with or without the current patch).
