Some qemu arch/machine types have built in platform devices that
are always implicitly available. For platform serial devices, the
current code assumes that only old style -serial config can be
used for these devices.
Apparently though since -chardev was introduced, we can use -chardev
in these cases, like this:
-chardev pty,id=foo
-serial chardev:foo
Since -chardev enables all sorts of modern features, use this method
for platform devices.

vcpu properties gathered from query-hotpluggable cpus need to be passed
back to qemu. As qemu did not use the node-id property until now and
libvirt forgot to pass it back properly (it was parsed but not passed
around) we did not honor this.
This patch adds node-id to the structures where it was missing and
passes it around as necessary.
The test data was generated with a VM with following config:
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0,2,4,6' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>
<cell id='1' cpus='1,3,5,7' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>

Currently, we are querying for vhostuser interface name in post

This reverts commit 2841e675.
It turns out that adding the host_mtu field to the PCI capabilities in
the guest bumps the length of PCI capabilities beyond the 32 byte
boundary, so the virtio-net device gets 64 bytes of ioport space
instead of 32, which offsets the address of all the other following
devices. Migration doesn't work very well when the location and length
of PCI capabilities of devices is changed between source and
destination.
This means that we need to make sure that the absence/presence of
host_mtu on the qemu commandline always matches between source and
destination, which means that we need to make setting of host_mtu an
opt-in thing (it can't happen automatically when the bridge being used
has a non-default MTU, which is what commit 2841e675 implemented).
I do want to re-implement this feature with an <mtu auto='on'/>
setting, but probably won't backport that to any stable branches, so
I'm first reverting the original commit, and that revert can be pushed
to the few releases that have been made since the original (3.1.0 -
3.3.0)

Add kernel_irqchip=split/on to the QEMU command line
and a capability that looks for it in query-command-line-options

This patch maps /domain/cpu/cache element into -cpu parameters:
- <cache mode='passthrough'/> is translated to host-cache-info=on
- <cache level='3' mode='emulate'/> is transformed into l3-cache=on
- <cache mode='disable'/> is turned in host-cache-info=off,l3-cache=off
Any other <cache> element is forbidden.
The tricky part is detecting whether QEMU supports the CPU properties.
The 'host-cache-info' property is introduced in v2.4.0-1389-ge265e3e480,
earlier QEMU releases enabled host-cache-info by default and had no way
to disable it. If the property is present, it defaults to 'off' for any
QEMU until at least 2.9.0.
The 'l3-cache' property was introduced later by v2.7.0-200-g14c985cffa.
Earlier versions worked as if l3-cache=off was passed. For any QEMU
until at least 2.9.0 l3-cache is 'off' by default.
QEMU 2.9.0 was the first release which supports probing both properties
by running device-list-properties with typename=host-x86_64-cpu. Older
QEMU releases did not support device-list-properties command for CPU
devices. Thus we can't really rely on probing them and we can just use
query-cpu-model-expansion QMP command as a witness.
Because the cache property probing is only reliable for QEMU >= 2.9.0
when both are already supported for quite a few releases, we let QEMU
report an error if a specific cache mode is explicitly requested. The
other mode (or both if a user requested CPU cache to be disabled) is
explicitly turned off for QEMU >= 2.9.0 to avoid any surprises in case
the QEMU defaults change. Any older QEMU already turns them off so not
doing so explicitly does not make any harm.

Depending on the architecture, requirements for ACPI and UEFI can
be different; more specifically, while on x86 UEFI requires ACPI,
on aarch64 it's the other way around.
Enforce these requirements when validating the domain, and make
the error message more accurate by mentioning that they're not
necessarily applicable to all architectures.
Several aarch64 test cases had to be tweaked because they would
have failed the validation step otherwise.
Instead of having a separate function, we can simply return
zero from the existing qemuDomainGetMemLockLimitBytes() to
signal the caller that the memory locking limit doesn't need
to be set for the guest.
Having a single function instead of two makes it less likely
that we will use the wrong value, which is exactly what
happened when we started applying the limit that was meant
for VFIO-using guests to <memoryBacking><locked>-using
guests.
QEMU allows for TSC frequency to be explicitly set to enable migration
with invtsc (migration fails if the destination QEMU cannot set the
exact same frequency used when starting the domain on the source host).
Libvirt already supports setting the TSC frequency in the XML using
<clock>
<timer name='tsc' frequency='1234567890'/>
</clock>
which will be transformed into
-cpu Model,tsc-frequency=1234567890

NVDIMM is new type of memory introduced into QEMU 2.6. The idea
is that we have a Non-Volatile memory module that keeps the data
persistent across domain reboots.
At the domain XML level, we already have some representation of
'dimm' modules. Long story short, NVDIMM will utilize the
existing <memory/> element that lives under <devices/> by adding
a new attribute 'nvdimm' to the existing @model and introduce a
new <path/> element for <source/> while reusing other fields. The
resulting XML would appear as:
<memory model='nvdimm'>
<source>
<path>/tmp/nvdimm</path>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>523264</size>
<node>0</node>
</target>
<address type='dimm' slot='0'/>
</memory>
So far, this is just a XML parser/formatter extension. QEMU
driver implementation is in the next commit.
