When probing machine types if the QEMU binary does not exist
we get a hard to diagnose error, due to the execve() in the
child failing
error: internal error Child process exited with status 1.
Add an explicit check so that we get
error: Cannot find QEMU binary /usr/libexec/qem3u-kvm: No such file or directory
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c: Check for QEMU binary
qemu 0.13.0 (at least as built for Fedora 14, and also backported to
RHEL 6.0 qemu) supported an older syntax for a spicevmc channel; it's
not as flexible (it has an implicit name and hides the chardev
aspect), but now that we support spicevmc, we might as well target
both variants.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h (QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_DEVICE_SPICEVMC):
New flag.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsParseDeviceStr): Set it
correctly.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.h (qemuBuildVirtioSerialPortDevStr): Drop
declaration.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildVirtioSerialPortDevStr): Alter
signature, check flag.
(qemuBuildCommandLine): Adjust caller and check flag.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (mymain): Update test.
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c (mymain): New test.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-channel-spicevmc-old.xml:
New file.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-channel-spicevmc-old.args:
Likewise.
Qemu smartcard/spicevmc support exists on branches (such as
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~alon/qemu/commit/?h=usb_ccid.v15&id=024a37b)
but is not yet upstream. The added -help output matches a scratch build
that will be close to the RHEL 6.1 qemu-kvm.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h (QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_CCID_EMULATED)
(QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_CCID_PASSTHRU, QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_CHARDEV_SPICEVMC):
New flags.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags)
(qemuCapsParseDeviceStr): Check for smartcard capabilities.
(qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo): Tweak comment.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (mymain): New test.

In QEMU, the card itself is a PCI device, but it requires a codec
(either -device hda-output or -device hda-duplex) to actually output
sound. Specifying <sound model='ich6'/> gives us -device intel-hda
-device hda-duplex I think it's important that a simple <sound model='ich6'/>
sets up a useful codec, to have consistent behavior with all other sound cards.
This is basically Dan's proposal of
<sound model='ich6'>
<codec type='output' slot='0'/>
<codec type='duplex' slot='3'/>
</sound>
without the codec bits implemented.
The important thing is to keep a consistent API here, we don't want some
<sound> devs require tweaking codecs but not others. Steps I see to
accomplishing this:
- every <sound> device has a <codec type='default'/> (unless codecs are
manually specified)
- <codec type='none'/> is required to specify 'no codecs'
- new audio settings like mic=on|off could then be exposed in
<sound> or <codec> in a consistent manner for all sound models
v2:
Use model='ich6'
v3:
Use feature detection, from eblake
Set codec id, bus, and cad values
v4:
intel-hda isn't supported if -device isn't available
v5:
Comment spelling fixes
Fixes regression introduced in commit 2211518, where all qemu 0.12.x
fails to start, as does qemu 0.13.x lacking the pci-assign device.
Prior to 2211518, the code was just ignoring a non-zero exit status
from the qemu child, but the virCommand code checked this to avoid
masking any other issues, which means the real bug of provoking
non-zero exit status has been latent for a longer time.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo): Check
for -device driver,? support.
(qemuCapsExtractDeviceStr): Avoid failure if all probed devices
are unsupported.
Reported by Ken Congyang.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h (qemuCapsParseDeviceStr): New
prototype.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsParsePCIDeviceStrs)
Rename and split...
(qemuCapsExtractDeviceStr, qemuCapsParseDeviceStr): ...to make it
easier to add and test device-specific checks.
(qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo): Update caller.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (testHelpStrParsing): Also test parsing of
device-related flags.
(mymain): Update expected flags.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-0.12.1-device: New file.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-rhel60-device: New file.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.12.3-device: New file.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.13.0-device: New file.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsProbeMachineTypes)
(qemuCapsProbeCPUModels, qemuCapsParsePCIDeviceStrs)
(qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo): Use virCommand rather than virExec.
The qemu_conf.c code is doing three jobs, driver config file
loading, QEMU capabilities management and QEMU command line
management. Move the capabilities code into its own file
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c, src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h: New
capabilities management code
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Delete capabilities
code
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Adapt for API renames
* src/Makefile.am: add src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c
