fabric_name is one of many fc_host attributes in Linux that is optional
and left to the low-level driver to decide if it is implemented.
The zfcp device driver does not provide a fabric name for an fcp host.
This patch removes the requirement for a fabric name by making it optional.

File open errors are prevented by a file exists check before
virFileReadAll is called since all callers of the virReadFCHost

If libvirt_parthelper is erroneously told to append the partition
separator 'p' onto the generated output for a disk pool using device
mapper that has 'user_friendly_names' set to true, then the error
recovery path will fail to find volume resulting in the pool being
in an unusable state.
So, augment the documentation to provide the better hint that the
part_separator='yes' should be set when user_friendly_names are not
being used. Additionally, once we're in the error path where the
returned name doesn't match the expected partition name try to see
if the reason is because the 'p' was erroneosly added. If so alter
the about to be removed vol->target.path so that the DiskDeleteVol
code can find the partition that was created and remove it.
If the voldef type is VIR_STORAGE_VOL_BLOCK, then as long as the
format is known, let's allow the probe to happen - gets a truer value
and the same probe/update would be allowed for the same volume defined
in a domain.
For volume processing in virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfo to get
the capacity commit id 'a760ba3a7' added the ability to probe a volume
that didn't list a target format. Unfortunately, the code used the
virStorageSource (e.g. target->type - virStorageType) rather than
virStorageVolDef (e.g. vol->type - virStorageVolType) in order to
make the comparison. As it turns out target->type for a volume is
not filled in at all for a voldef as the code relies on vol->type.
Ironically the result is that only VIR_STORAGE_VOL_BLOCK's would get
their capacity updated.
This patch will adjust the code to check the "vol->type" field instead
as an argument. This way for a voldef, the correct comparison is made.
Additionally for a backingStore, the 'type' field is never filled in;
however, since we know that the provided path is a location at which
the backing store can be accessed on the local filesystem thus just
pass VIR_STORAGE_VOL_FILE in order to satisfy the adjusted voltype
check. Whether it's a FILE or a BLOCK only matters if we're trying to
get more data based on the target->format.
Starting from a245abce43 another set of tests for

However, the test data (which live in qemuhotplugtestcpus dir)

The tool is used for pool discovery. Since we call an external binary we
don't really need to compile out the code that uses it. We can check
whether it exists at runtime.
In commit 4090e15399 we went back from reporting no errors if no storage
pools were found on a given host to reporting a bad error. And only in
cases when gluster was not installed.
Report a less bad error in case there are no volumes. Also report the
error when gluster is installed but no volumes were found, since
virStorageBackendFindGlusterPoolSources would return success in that
case.
The cpu hotplug operation is rather complex so the testing code needs to
provide quite lot of data and monitor conversations to successfully test
it. The code mainly tests the selection of cpus according to the target
count request.
Similar to the existing qemuMonitorTestNewFromFile the *Full version
will allow to check both commands and supply responses for a better
monitor testing.
Extract the call to qemuDomainSelectHotplugVcpuEntities outside of
qemuDomainSetVcpusLive and decide whether to hotplug or unplug the
entities specified by the cpumap using a boolean flag.
This will allow to use qemuDomainSetVcpusLive in cases where we prepare
the list of vcpus to enable or disable by other means.
In cases where CPU hotplug is supported by qemu force the monitor to
reject invalid or broken responses to 'query-cpus'. It's expected that
the command returns usable data in such case.
When LIBXL_HAVE_QED is defined, xlconfigtest fails
9) Xen XL-2-XML Format disk-qed ... command line: config parsing error
in disk specification: no vdev specified in
`target=/var/lib/libvirt/images/XenGuest2,format=qed,backendtype=qdisk,vdev=hda,access=rw'

As per the xl-disk-configuration(5) man page, target= must come
last in the disk specification when specified by name:
When this parameter is specified by name, ie with the target=
syntax in the configuration file, it consumes the whole rest of the
DISKSPEC including trailing whitespaces. Therefore in that case
it must come last.
Change tests/xlconfigdata/test-disk-qed.cfg to adhere to this
restriction.
The problem is in the way how the list item is created prior to
appending it to the transaction list - the @path argument is just a
shallow copy instead of deep copy of the hostdev device's path.
Unfortunately, the hostdev devices from which the @path is extracted, in
order to add them into the transaction list, are only temporary and
freed before the buildup of the qemu namespace, thus making the @path
attribute in the transaction list NULL, causing 'permission denied' or
'double free' or 'unknown cause' errors.

While all the code that deals with qemu namespaces correctly
detects whether we are running as root (and turn into NO-OP for
qemu:///session) the actual unshare() call is not guarded with
such check. Therefore any attempt to start a domain under
qemu:///session shall fail as unshare() is reserved for root.
The fix consists of moving unshare() call (for which we have a
wrapper called virProcessSetupPrivateMountNS) into
qemuDomainBuildNamespace() where the proper check is performed.

For case VIR_STORAGE_BLKID_PROBE_DIFFERENT, clean up the message to
avoid using the virsh like --overwrite syntax. Additionally provide
a different error message when not writing the label to avoid confusion.
Rather than special casing the VIR_STORAGE_BLKID_PROBE_UNKNOWN after
calling virStorageBackendBLKIDFindPart, just allow the switch statement
handle setting ret = -2.
If neither BLKID or PARTED is available and we're not writing, then
just return 0 which allows the underlying storage pool to generate
a failure. If both are unavailable and we're writing, then generate
a more generic error message.
When running on s390 with a kernel that does not support cpu model checking and
with a Qemu new enough to support query-cpu-model-expansion, the gathering of qemu
capabilities will fail. Qemu responds to the query-cpu-model-expansion qmp
command with an error because the needed kernel ioct does not exist. When this
happens a guest cannot even be defined due to missing qemu capabilities data.
This patch fixes the problem by silently ignoring generic errors stemming from
calls to query-cpu-model-expansion.

When creating new /dev/* for qemu, we do chown() and copy ACLs to
create the exact copy from the original /dev. I though that
copying SELinux labels is not necessary as SELinux will chose the
sane defaults. Surprisingly, it does not leaving namespace with
the following labels:
crw-rw-rw-. root root system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 random
crw-------. root root system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 rtc0
drwxrwxrwt. root root system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 shm
crw-rw-rw-. root root system_u:object_r:tmpfs_t:s0 urandom
As a result, domain is unable to start:
error: internal error: process exited while connecting to monitor: Error in GnuTLS initialization: Failed to acquire random data.
qemu-kvm: cannot initialize crypto: Unable to initialize GNUTLS library: Failed to acquire random data.
The solution is to copy the SELinux labels as well.

The check is pointless since LVM is capable to detect it's own members
and the check is flawed as it would fail if neither libblkid nor parted
is installed.
We don't really need to babysit LVM in this way.
This reverts commit cb38b6cbc7.
The check does not work properly (crashes) with netfs filesystems and
also checking that a device is not empty when attempting to mount a
filesystem is not very usefull since the mount will fail anyways.
As the code would improve only a very minor corner case I don't really
see a reason to have this code at all.
This code would also fail if libvirt is compiled without support for
blkid and without parted.
This reverts commit a11fd69735.
For HVM domains, pae is only set in libxl_domain_build_info when

fine for i686 machines, but is incorrect behavior for x86_64 machines

The query-cpu-model-expansion is currently implemented for s390(x) only
and all CPU properties it returns are booleans. However, x86
