This patch adds XML definitions for guest NUMA specification and contains
routines to parse the same. The guest NUMA specification looks like this:
<cpu>
...
<topology sockets='2' cores='4' threads='2'/>
<numa>
<cell cpus='0-7' memory='512000'/>
<cell cpus='8-15' memory='512000'/>
</numa>
...
</cpu>

Auto-indent makes life a bit easier; this patch also drops unused
arguments and replaces a misspelled flag name with two entry points
instead, so that callers don't have to worry about how much spacing
is present when embedding cpu elements.
* src/conf/cpu_conf.h (virCPUFormatFlags): Delete.
(virCPUDefFormat): Drop unused argument.
(virCPUDefFormatBuf): Alter signature.
(virCPUDefFormatBufFull): New prototype.
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c (virCPUDefFormatBuf): Split...
(virCPUDefFormatBufFull): ...into new function.
(virCPUDefFormat): Adjust caller.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefFormatInternal): Likewise.
* src/conf/capabilities.c (virCapabilitiesFormatXML): Likewise.
* src/cpu/cpu.c (cpuBaselineXML): Likewise.
* tests/cputest.c (cpuTestCompareXML): Likewise.
To allow a client app to pass in custom XML during migration
of a guest it is neccessary to ensure the guest ABI remains
unchanged. The virDomainDefCheckABIStablity method accepts
two virDomainDefPtr structs and compares everything in them
that could impact the guest machine ABI
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Add virDomainDefCheckABIStablity
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c, src/conf/cpu_conf.h: Add virCPUDefIsEqual
* src/util/sysinfo.c, src/util/sysinfo.h: Add virSysinfoIsEqual
We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.
global rename performed with:
$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
| xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
To enable the CPU XML from the capabilities to be pasted directly
into the guest XML with no editing, pick a sensible default for
match and feature policy. The CPU match will be exact and the
feature policy will be require. This should ensure safety for
migration and give DWIM semantics for users
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c: Default to exact match and require policy
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Document new defaults
When autodetecting whether XML describes guest or host CPU, the presence
of <arch> element is checked. If it's present, we treat the XML as host
CPU definition. Which is right, since guest CPU definitions do not
contain <arch> element. However, if at the same time the root <cpu>
element contains `match' attribute, we would silently ignore it and
still treat the XML as host CPU. We should rather refuse such invalid
XML.
By specifying <vendor> element in CPU requirements a guest can be
restricted to run only on CPUs by a given vendor. Host CPU vendor is
also specified in capabilities XML.
The vendor is checked when migrating a guest but it's not forced, i.e.,
guests configured without <vendor> element can be freely migrated.
Received report of user crashing libvirtd with
virsh capabilities > capabilities.xml
virsh cpu-compare capabilities.xml
While user has been informed about proper usage of cpu-compare,
segfaulting libvirt should be avoided.
Do not parse CPU definition in virCPUDefParseXML() if XML is not
a 'cpu' node.
The virConnectPtr is no longer required for error reporting since
that is recorded in a thread local. Remove use of virConnectPtr
from all APIs in cpu_conf.{h,c} and update all callers to
match
Currently CPU topology may only be specified together with CPU model:
<cpu match='exact'>
<model>name</model>
<topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='3'/>
</cpu>
This patch allows for CPU topology specification without the need for
also specifying CPU model:
<cpu>
<topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='3'/>
</cpu>
'match' attribute and 'model' element are made optional with the
restriction that 'match' attribute has to be set when 'model' is
present.
