Back when macvtap support was added in commit 315baab944 in Feb. 2010
(libvirt-0.7.7), it was setup to autogenerate a name for the device if
one wasn't supplied, in the pattern "macvtap%d" (or "macvlan%d"),
similar to the way an unspecified standard tap device name will lead
to an autogenerated "vnet%d".
As a matter of fact, in commit ca1b7cc8e4 added in May 2010, the code
was changed to *always* ignore a supplied device name for macvtap
interfaces by deleting *any* name immediately during the <interface>
parsing (this was intended to prevent one domain which had failed to
completely start from deleting the macvtap device of another domain
which had subsequently been provided the same device name (this will
seem mildly ironic later). This was later fixed to only clear the
device name when inactive XML was being parsed. HOWEVER - this was
only done if the xml was <interface type='direct'> - autogenerated
names were not cleared for <interface type='network'> (which could
also result in a macvtap device).
Although the names of "vnetX" tap devices had always been
automatically cleared when parsing <interface> (see commit d1304583d
from July 2008 (!)), at the time macvtap support was added, both vnetX
and macvtapX device names were always included when formatting the
XML.
Then in commit a8be259d0c (July 2011, libvirt-0.9.4), <interface>
formatting was changed to also clear out "vnetX" device names during
XML formatting as well. However the same treatment wasn't given to
"macvtapX".
Now in 2020, there has been a report that a failed migration leads to
the macvtap device of some other unrelated guest on the destination
host losing its network connectivity. It was determined that this was
due to the domain XML in the migration containing a macvtap device
name, e.g. "macvtap0", that was already in use by the other guest on
the destination. Normally this wouldn't be a problem, because libvirt
would see that the device was already in use, and then find a
different unused name. But in this case, other external problems were
causing the migration to fail prior to selecting a macvtap device and
successfully opening it, and during error recovery, qemuProcessStop()
was called, which went through all def->nets objects and (if they were
macvtap) deleted the device specified in net->ifname; since libvirt
hadn't gotten to the point of replacing the incoming "macvtap0" with
the name of a device it actually created for this guest, that meant
that "macvtap0" was deleted, *even though it was currently in use by a
different guest*!
Whew!
So, it turns out that when formatting "migratable" XML, "vnetX"
devices are omitted, just as when formatting "inactive" XML. By making
the code in both interface parsing and formatting consistent for
"vnetX", "macvtapX", and "macvlanX", we can thus make sure that the
autogenerated (and unneeded / completely *not* wanted) macvtap device
name will not be sent with the migration XML. This way when a
migration fails, net->ifname will be NULL, and libvirt won't have any
device to try and (erroneously) delete.

Back when the original version of this chunk of code was added (commit
41b087198 in libvirt-0.8.1 in April 2010), we used virExecDaemonize()
to start the qemu process, and would continue on in the function
(which at that time was called qemudStartVMDaemon()) even if a -1 was
returned. So it was possible to get to this code with rv == -1 (it was
called "ret" in that version of the code).
In modern libvirt code, qemu is started with virCommandRun(); then we
call virPidFileReadPath(); those are the only two ways of setting "rv"
prior to this code being removed, and in either case if the new value
of rv < 0, then we immediately skip over the rest of the code to the
cleanup: label.
This means that the code being removed by this patch is
unreachable.

Reviewed-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com>
The existing auto-align behavior for pSeries has the idea to
alleviate user configuration of the NVDIMM size, given that the
alignment calculation is not trivial to do (256MiB alignment
of mem->size - mem->label_size value, a.k.a guest area). We
align mem->size down to avoid end of file problems.
The end result is not ideal though. We do not touch the domain
XML, meaning that the XML can report a NVDIMM size 255MiB smaller
than the actual size the guest is seeing. It also adds one more
thing to consider in case the guest is reporting less memory
than declared, since the auto-align is transparent to the
user.
Following Andrea's suggestion in [1], let's instead do an
size alignment validation. If the NVDIMM is unaligned, error out
and suggest a rounded up value. This can be bothersome to users,
but will bring consistency of NVDIMM size between the domain XML
and the guest.
This approach will force existing non-running pSeries guests to
readjust the NVDIMM value in their XMLs, if necessary. No changes
were made for x86 NVDIMM support.

Changes:
- Update the descriptions of --current & --config flags.
For --config, the reason to rephrase "next boot" to "next start"
is: "Next boot may still imply somebody selecting "reboot" in the
guest OS and fully expecting the changes to be applied." (per Peter
Krempa)
For --current, existing documentation says:
"If *--current* is specified, affect the current guest state."
It's not entirely clear what states can "current" mean or imply. So
rephrase it in context of the other two related flags --live and
--config.
- While at it, I also took the liberty to replace the few occurrences
of "peristent domain[s]" with "persistent guest[s]"

lseek() and ftruncate() to create the hole. But this won't work

When handling sparse stream, a thread is executed. This thread
runs a read() or write() loop (depending what API is called; in
this case it's virStorageVolDownload() and this the thread run
read() loop). The read() is handled in virFDStreamThreadDoRead()
which is then data/hole section aware, meaning it uses
virFileInData() to detect data and hole sections and sends
TYPE_DATA or TYPE_HOLE virStream messages accordingly.
However, virFileInData() does not work with block devices. Simply
because block devices don't have data and hole sections. What we
can do though, is to mimic being always in a DATA section.
