In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

When computing a baseline CPU for a specific hypervisor we have to make
sure to include only CPU features supported by the hypervisor. Otherwise
the computed CPU could not be used for starting a new domain.

All APIs which expect a list of CPU models supported by hypervisors were
switched from char **models and int models to just accept a pointer to
virDomainCapsCPUModels object stored in domain capabilities. This avoids
the need to transform virDomainCapsCPUModelsPtr into a NULL-terminated
list of model names and also allows the various cpu driver APIs to
access additional details (such as its usability) about each CPU model.

This new API may be used to check whether all features used in a CPU

supported, etc.). Leaving this API unimplemented in an arch subdriver
means libvirt does not restrict CPU features usable on the associated

This new internal API makes a copy of virCPUDef while removing all
features which would block migration. It uses cpu_map.xml as a database
of such features, which should only be used as a fallback when we cannot
get the data from a hypervisor. The main goal of this API is to decouple
this filtering from virCPUUpdate so that the hypervisor driver can
filter the features according to the hypervisor.

cpuBaseline is responsible for computing a baseline CPU while feature
expansion is done by virCPUExpandFeatures. The cpuBaselineXML wrapper
(used by hypervisor drivers to implement virConnectBaselineCPU API)
calls cpuBaseline followed by virCPUExpandFeatures if requested by
VIR_CONNECT_BASELINE_CPU_EXPAND_FEATURES flag.
The features in the three changed test files had to be sorted using
"sort -k 3" because virCPUExpandFeatures returns a sorted list of
features.

Having to use cpuBaseline with VIR_CONNECT_BASELINE_CPU_EXPAND_FEATURES
flag to expand CPU features is strange. Not to mention that cpuBaseline
can only expand host CPU definitions (i.e., it completely ignores
feature policies). The new virCPUExpandFeatures API is designed to work
with both host and guest CPU definitions.

There is no "node driver" as there was before, drivers have to do
their own ACL checking anyway, so they all specify their functions and
nodeinfo is basically just extending conf/capablities. Hence moving
the code to src/conf/ is the right way to go.
Also that way we can de-duplicate some code that is in virsysfs and/or
virhostcpu that got duplicated during the virhostcpu.c split. And
Some cleanup is done throughout the changes, like adding the vir*
prefix etc.

When starting a domain with custom guest CPU specification QEMU may add
or remove some CPU features. There are several reasons for this, e.g.,
QEMU/KVM does not support some requested features or the definition of
the requested CPU model in libvirt's cpu_map.xml differs from the one
QEMU is using. We can't really avoid this because CPU models are allowed
to change with machine types and libvirt doesn't know (and probably
doesn't even want to know) about such changes.
Thus when we want to make sure guest ABI doesn't change when a domain
gets migrated to another host, we need to update our live CPU definition
according to the CPU QEMU created. Once updated, we will change CPU
checking to VIR_CPU_CHECK_FULL to make sure the virtual CPU created
after migration exactly matches the one on the source.
