38ea9515af conf: new pci controller model "pcie-switch-upstream-port"
This controller can be connected only to a pcie-root-port or a
pcie-switch-downstream-port (which will be added in a later patch),
which is the reason for the new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_PORT. A pcie-switch-upstream-port provides
32 ports (slot=0 to slot=31) on the downstream side, which can only
have pci controllers of model "pcie-switch-downstream-port" plugged
into them, which is the reason for the other new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_SWITCH.

4cde758808 qemu: add capabilities bit for device x3130-upstream
This is the upstream part of a PCIe switch. It connects to a PCIe port
(but not PCI) on the upstream side, and can have up to 31
xio3130-downstream controllers (but no other types of devices)
connected to its downstream side.

This device will be used to implement the "pcie-switch-upstream-port"
model of pci controller.

16328520f6 qemu: support new pci controller model "pcie-root-port"
This is backed by the qemu device ioh3420.

chassis and port from the <target> subelement are used to store/set the
respective qemu device options for the ioh3420. Currently, chassis is
set to be the index of the controller, and port is set to
"(slot << 3) + function" (per suggestion from Alex Williamson).

dce3b8beb3 conf: new pci controller model "pcie-root-port"
This controller can be connected (at domain startup time only - not
hotpluggable) only to a port on the pcie root complex ("pcie-root" in
libvirt config), hence the new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_ROOT. It provides a hotpluggable port that
will accept any PCI or PCIe device.

New attributes must be added to the controller <target> subelement for
this - chassis and port are guest-visible option values that will be
set by libvirt with values derived from the controller's index and pci
address information.

408b100a06 qemu: add capabilities bit for device ioh3420
This is a PCIE "root port". It connects only to a port of the
integrated pcie.0 bus of a Q35 machine (can't be hotplugged), and
provides a single PCIe port that can have PCI or PCIe devices
hotplugged into it.

This device will be used to implement the "pcie-root-port" model of
pci controller.

18c104516e qemu: implement <target chassisNr='n'/> subelement/attribute of <controller>
This uses the new subelement/attribute in two ways:

1) If a "pci-bridge" pci controller has no chassisNr attribute, it
will automatically be set to the controller's index as soon as the
controller's PCI address is known (during
qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses()).

2) when creating the commandline for a pci-bridge device, chassisNr
will be used to set qemu's chassis_nr option (rather than the previous
practice of hard-coding it to the controller's index).

8dc88aeed6 conf: add new <target> subelement with chassisNr attribute to <controller>
There are some configuration options to some types of pci controllers
that are currently automatically derived from other parts of the
controller's configuration. For example, in qemu a pci-bridge
controller has an option that is called "chassis_nr"; up until now
libvirt has always set chassis_nr to the index of the pci-bridge. So
this:

  <controller type='pci' model='pci-bridge' index='2'/>

will always result in:

  -device pci-bridge,chassis_nr=2,...

on the qemu commandline. In the future we may decide there is a better
way to derive that option, but even in that case we will need for
existing domains to retain the same chassis_nr they were using in the
past - that is something that is visible to the guest so it is part of
the guest ABI and changing it would lead to problems for migrating
guests (or just guests with very picky OSes).

The <target> subelement has been added as a place to put the new
"chassisNr" attribute that will be filled in by libvirt when it
auto-generates the chassisNr; it will be saved in the config, then
reused any time the domain is started:

  <controller type='pci' model='pci-bridge' index='2'>
    <model type='pci-bridge'/>
    <target chassisNr='2'/>
  </controller>

The one oddity of all this is that if the controller configuration
is changed (for example to change the index or the pci address
where the controller is plugged in), the items in <target> will
*not* be re-generated, which might lead to conflict. I can't
really see any way around this, but fortunately if there is a
material conflict qemu will let us know and we will pass that on
to the user.

572ebdbce7 qemu: implement <model> subelement to <controller>
This patch provides qemu support for the contents of <model> in
<controller> for the two existing PCI controller types that need it
(i.e. the two controller types that are backed by a device that must
be specified on the qemu commandline):

1) pci-bridge - sets <model> name attribute default as "pci-bridge"

2) dmi-to-pci-bridge - sets <model> name attribute default as
   "i82801b11-bridge".

These both match current hardcoded practice.

The defaults are set at the end of qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses().
This can't be done earlier because some of the options that will be
autogenerated need full PCI address info for the controller, and
because qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses() might create extra controllers
which would need default settings added, and that hasn't yet been done
at the time the PostParse callbacks are being run.
qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses() is still called prior to the XML being
written to disk, though, so the autogenerated defaults are persistent.

qemu capabilities bits aren't checked when the domain is defined, but
rather when the commandline is actually created (so the domain can
possibly be defined on a host that doesn't yet have support for the
given device, or a host different from the one where it will
eventually be run). When the commandline is being generated we compare
the modelName to known qemu device names implementing the given type
of controller, and check the capabilities bit for that device.

bf20251048 conf: add new <model> subelement with name attribute to <controller>
This new subelement is used in PCI controllers: the toplevel
*attribute* "model" of a controller denotes what kind of PCI
controller is being described, e.g. a "dmi-to-pci-bridge",
"pci-bridge", or "pci-root". But in the future there will be different
implementations of some of those types of PCI controllers, which
behave similarly from libvirt's point of view (and so should have the
same model), but use a different device in qemu (and present
themselves as a different piece of hardware in the guest). In an ideal
world we (i.e. "I") would have thought of that back when the pci
controllers were added, and used some sort of type/class/model
notation (where class was used in the way we are now using model, and
model was used for the actual manufacturer's model number of a
particular family of PCI controller), but that opportunity is long
past, so as an alternative, this patch allows selecting a particular
implementation of a pci controller with the "name" attribute of the
<model> subelement, e.g.:

  <controller type='pci' model='dmi-to-pci-bridge' index='1'>
    <model name='i82801b11-bridge'/>
  </controller>

In this case, "dmi-to-pci-bridge" is the kind of controller (one that
has a single PCIe port upstream, and 32 standard PCI ports downstream,
which are not hotpluggable), and the qemu device to be used to
implement this kind of controller is named "i82801b11-bridge".

Implementing the above now will allow us in the future to add a new
kind of dmi-to-pci-bridge that doesn't use qemu's i82801b11-bridge
device, but instead uses something else (which doesn't yet exist, but
qemu people have been discussing it), all without breaking existing
configs.

(note that for the existing "pci-bridge" type of PCI controller, both
the model attribute and <model> name are 'pci-bridge'. This is just a
coincidence, since it turns out that in this case the device name in
qemu really is a generic 'pci-bridge' rather than being the name of
some real-world chip)

f8fe8f0345 conf: more useful error message when pci function is out of range
If a pci address had a function number out of range, the error message
would be:

  Insufficient specification for PCI address

which is logged by virDevicePCIAddressParseXML() after
virDevicePCIAddressIsValid returns a failure.

This patch enhances virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() to optionally report
the error itself (since it is the place that decides which part of the
address is "invalid"), and uses that feature when calling from
virDevicePCIAddressParseXML(), so that the error will be more useful,
e.g.:

  Invalid PCI address function=0x8, must be <= 7

Previously, virDevicePCIAddressIsValid didn't check for the
theoretical limits of domain or bus, only for slot or function. While
adding log messages, we also correct that ommission. (The RNG for PCI
addresses already enforces this limit, which by the way means that we
can't add any negative tests for this - as far as I know our
domainschematest has no provisions for passing XML that is supposed to
fail).

Note that virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() can only check against the
absolute maximum attribute values for *any* possible PCI controller,
not for the actual maximums of the specific controller that this
device is attaching to; fortunately there is later more specific
validation for guest-side PCI addresses when building the set of
assigned PCI addresses. For host-side PCI addresses (e.g. for
<hostdev> and for network device pools), we rely on the error that
will be logged when it is found that the device doesn't actually
exist.

This resolves:

8dc2725925 qemu: Fix reporting of physical capacity for block devices
Qemu reports physical size 0 for block devices. As 15fa84acbb
changed the behavior of qemuDomainGetBlockInfo to just query the monitor
this created a regression since we didn't report the size correctly any

This patch adds code to refresh the physical size of a block device by
opening it and seeking to the end and uses it both in
qemuDomainGetBlockInfo and also in qemuDomainGetStatsOneBlock that was
broken since it was introduced in this respect.

a16871fef7 conf: Resolve Coverity FORWARD_NULL
The recent changes to perform SCSI device address checks during the
post parse callbacks ran afoul of the Coverity checker since the changes
assumed that the 'xmlopt' parameter to virDomainDeviceDefPostParse
would be non NULL (commit id 'ca2cf74e87'); however, what was missed
is there was an "if (xmlopt &&" check being made, so Coverity believed
that it could be possible for a NULL 'xmlopt'.

Checking the various calling paths seemingly disproves that. If called
from virDomainDeviceDefParse, there were two other possible calls that
would end up dereffing, so that path could not be NULL. If called via
virDomainDefPostParseDeviceIterator via virDomainDefPostParse there
are two callers (virDomainDefParseXML and qemuParseCommandLine)
which deref xmlopt either directly or through another call.

So I'm removing the check for non-NULL xmlopt.

c43c661fe4 qemu: Remove double unlock for domains
The virDomainObjListRemove() function unlocks a domain that it's given
due to legacy code.  And because of that code, which should be
refactored, that last virObjectUnlock() cannot be just removed.  So
instead, lock it right back for qemu for now.  All calls to
qemuDomainRemoveInactive() are followed by code that unlocks the domain
again, plus the domain should be locked during qemuDomainObjEndJob(), so
the right place to lock it is right after virDomainObjListRemove().

The only place where this would cause a problem is the autodestroy
callback, so we need to get another reference there and uref+unlock it
afterwards.  Luckily, returning NULL from that function doesn't mean an
error, and only means that it doesn't need to be unlocked anymore.

3020f550ca tests: Prepare for subcore tests
The nodeGetThreadsPerSubcore() function is mocked to return 8 for
ppc64 tests, which corresponds to the default subcore mode.

Update the expected output for the deconfigured-cpus nodeinfo
test to account for this change.

014208c4d0 nodeinfo: Fix output on PPC64 KVM hosts
The nodeinfo is reporting incorrect number of cpus and incorrect host
topology on PPC64 KVM hosts. The KVM hypervisor on PPC64 needs only
the primary thread in a core to be online, and the secondaries offlined.
While scheduling a guest in, the kvm scheduler wakes up the secondaries to
run in guest context.

The host scheduling of the guests happen at the core level(as only primary
thread is online). The kvm scheduler exploits as many threads of the core
as needed by guest. Further, starting POWER8, the processor allows splitting
a physical core into multiple subcores with 2 or 4 threads each. Again, only
the primary thread in a subcore is online in the host. The KVM-PPC
scheduler allows guests to exploit all the offline threads in the subcore,
by bringing them online when needed.
(Kernel patches on split-core http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm-ppc/msg09121.html)

Recently with dynamic micro-threading changes in ppc-kvm, makes sure
to utilize all the offline cpus across guests, and across guests with
different cpu topologies.
(https://www.mail-archive.com/kvm@vger.kernel.org/msg115978.html)

Since the offline cpus are brought online in the guest context, it is safe
to count them as online. Nodeinfo today discounts these offline cpus from
cpu count/topology calclulation, and the nodeinfo output is not of any help
and the host appears overcommited when it is actually not.

The patch carefully counts those offline threads whose primary threads are
online. The host topology displayed by the nodeinfo is also fixed when the
host is in valid kvm state.

d9c9e138f2 rpc: Fix slow volume download (virsh vol-download)
Use I/O vector (iovec) instead of one huge memory buffer as suggested
in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1026137#c7. This avoids
doing memmove() to big buffers and performance doesn't degrade if
source (virNetClientStreamQueuePacket()) is faster than sink
(virNetClientStreamRecvPacket()).
