An example of the scsi hostdev XML:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi'>
<source>
<adapter name='scsi_host0'/>
<address bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</source>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='4' unit='8'/>
</hostdev>
Controller is implicitly added for scsi hostdev, though the scsi
controller's model defaults to "lsilogic", which might be not what
the user wants (same problem exists for virtio-scsi disk). It's
the existing problem, will be addressed later.
The device address must be specified manually. Later patch will let
libvirt generate it automatically.
This only introduces the generic XMLs for scsi hostdev, later patches
will add other elements, e.g. <readonly>, <shareable>.

Since the NPIV machine is not easy to get, it's very likely to
introduce regressions when doing changes on the existing code.
This patch dumps part of the sysfs files (the necessary ones)
of fc_host as test input data, to test the related util functions.
It could be extended for more fc_host related testing in future.
Add a test case which exercises the virFDStreamOpenFile
and virFDStreamCreateFile methods. Ensure that both the
synchronous and non-blocking iohelper code paths work.
This validates the regression recently fixed which

These all existed before virfile.c was created, and for some reason
weren't moved.
This is mostly straightfoward, although the syntax rule prohibiting
write() had to be changed to have an exception for virfile.c instead
of virutil.c.
This movement pointed out that there is a function called
virBuildPath(), and another almost identical function called
virFileBuildPath(). They really should be a single function, which
I'll take care of as soon as I figure out what the arglist should look
like.

We have seen an issue on s390x platform where domain XMLs larger than 1MB
were used. The define command was finished successfully. The dumpxml command
was not successful (i.e. could not encode message payload).
Enlarged message related sizes (e.g. maximum string size, message size, etc.)

To improve handling of the RPC message size the allocation during encode process
is changed to a dynamic one (i.e. starting with 64kB initial size and increasing
that size in steps up to 16MB if the payload data is larger).

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
For s390 we don't want to have a default USB device generated even
if QEMU is silently tolerating -usb on the command line. This may change
in the future.
Another reason to avoid the USB controller is that it implies a PCI
bus which might cause a regression at some later point in time.
The following change will set the USB controller model to 'none'
unless a model or address has been specified, which can be the case
if a legacy definition is loaded or the XML writer knows what
she/he's doing.
Requiring the user to explicitly disable USB on systems not supporting
it seems cumbersome.

In the past we automatically added a USB controller and assigned
it a PCI address (0:0:1.2) even on machines without a PCI bus.
This didn't break machines with no PCI bus because the command
line for it is just '-usb', with no mention of the PCI bus.
The implicit IDE controller (reserved address 0:0:1.1) has
no command line at all.
Commit b33eb0dc removed the ability to reserve PCI addresses
on machines without a PCI bus. This made them stop working,
since there would always be the implicit USB controller.
Skip the reservation of addresses for these controllers when
there is no PCI bus, instead of failing.
I remembered to document this bit, but somehow forgot to implement it.
This adds <driver name='kvm|vfio'/> as a subelement to the <forward>
element of a network (this puts it parallel to the match between
mode='hostdev' attribute in a network and type='hostdev' in an
<interface>).
Since it's already documented, only the parser, formatter, backend
driver recognition (it just translates/moves the flag into the
<interface> at the appropriate time), and a test case were needed.
(I used a separate enum for the values both because the original is
defined in domain_conf.h, which is unavailable from network_conf.h,
and because in the future it's possible that we may want to support
other non-hostdev oriented driver names in the network parser; this
makes sure that one can be expanded without the other).
If a user cgroup name begins with "cgroup.", "_" or with any of
the controllers from /proc/cgroups followed by a dot, then they
need to be prefixed with a single underscore. eg if there is
an object "cpu.service", then this would end up as "_cpu.service"
in the cgroup filesystem tree, however, "waldo.service" would
stay "waldo.service", at least as long as nobody comes up with
a cgroup controller called "waldo".
Since we require a '.XXXX' suffix on all partitions, there is
no scope for clashing with the kernel 'tasks' and 'release_agent'

If the partition named passed in the XML does not already have
a suffix, ensure it gets a '.partition' added to each component.
The exceptions are /machine, /user and /system which do not need
to have a suffix, since they are fixed partitions at the top

Recently we changed to create VM cgroups with the naming pattern
$VMNAME.$DRIVER.libvirt. Following discussions with the systemd
community it was decided that only having a single '.' in the

$VMNAME.libvirt-$DRIVER. eg for LXC 'mycontainer.libvirt-lxc' or
for KVM 'myvm.libvirt-qemu'.

The device option for vfio-pci is nearly identical to that for
pci-assign - only the configfd parameter isn't supported (or needed).
Checking for presence of the bootindex parameter is done separately
from constructing the commandline, similar to how it is done for
pci-assign.
This patch contains tests to check for proper commandline
construction. It also includes tests for parser-formatter-parser
roundtrips (xml2xml), because those tests use the same data files, and
would have failed had they been included before now.
qemu: xml/args tests for VFIO hostdev and <interface type='hostdev'/>
These should be squashed in with the patch that adds commandline
handling of vfio (they would fail at any earlier time).
When all usb controllers connected to the same bus have <master
startport='x'/> specified, none of them have 'id=usb' assigned and
thus qemu fails due to invalid masterport specification (we use 'usb'
for that purpose). Adding a check that at least one of the
controllers is specified without <master startport='x'/> and in case
this happens, error out due to invalid configuration.
Add a "dry run" address allocation to figure out how many bridges
will be needed for all the devices without explicit addresses.
Auto-add just enough bridges to put all the devices on, or up to the
bridge with the largest specified index.
<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'/>
is auto-added to pc* machine types.
Without this controller PCI bus 0 is not available and
no PCI addresses are assigned by default.
Since older libvirt supported PCI bus 0 even without
this controller, it is removed from the XML when migrating.
Now we set the default disk driver name when parsing
the qemu command line too, hence all the test changes.
Assume format type is 'auto' when none is specified on
qemu command line.
Instead of making a choice between the underscore and camelCase, this
simply changes "num_queues" into "queues", which is also consistent
with Michal's multiple queue support for interface.
Improve error reporting and generating of SPICE command line arguments
according to the need to enable TLS. If TLS is disabled, there's no need
to pass the certificate dir to qemu.

With this patch, include public headers in "" form is only allowed

The recent qemu requires "0x" prefix for the disk wwn, this patch

drive=drive-scsi0-0-0-0,id=scsi0-0-0-0,wwn=6000c60016ea71ad:
Property 'scsi-hd.wwn' doesn't take value '6000c60016ea71ad'
Though it's a qemu regression, but it's nice to allow the prefix,
and doesn't hurt for us to always output "0x".

Currently the virCgroupPtr struct contains 3 pieces of
information
- path - path of the cgroup, relative to current process'
cgroup placement
- placement - current process' placement in each controller
- mounts - mount point of each controller
When reading/writing cgroup settings, the path & placement
strings are combined to form the file path. This approach
only works if we assume all cgroups will be relative to
the current process' cgroup placement.
To allow support for managing cgroups at any place in the
heirarchy a change is needed. The 'placement' data should
reflect the absolute path to the cgroup, and the 'path'
value should no longer be used to form the paths to the
cgroup attribute files.

Some aspects of the cgroups setup / detection code are quite subtle
and easy to break. It would greatly benefit from unit testing, but
this is difficult because the test suite won't have privileges to
play around with cgroups. The solution is to use monkey patching
via LD_PRELOAD to override the fopen, open, mkdir, access functions
to redirect access of cgroups files to some magic stubs in the
test suite.
Using this we provide custom content for the /proc/cgroup and
/proc/self/mounts files which report a fixed cgroup setup. We
then override open/mkdir/access so that access to the cgroups
filesystem gets redirected into files in a temporary directory
tree in the test suite build dir.

This patch refactors various places to allow removing of the
defaultConsoleTargetType callback from the virCaps structure.
A new console character device target type is introduced -
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_NONE - to mark that no type was
specified in the XML. This type is at the end converted to the standard
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_SERIAL. Other types that are
different from this default have to be processed separately in the
device post parse callback.
Use the virDomainXMLConf structure to hold this data and tweak the code
to avoid semantic change.
Without configuration the KVM mac prefix is used by default. I chose it
as it's in the privately administered segment so it should be usable for
any purposes.
Use the qemu specific callback to fill this data in the qemu driver as
it's the only place where it was used and fix tests as the qemu test
capability object didn't configure the defaults for the tests.
This patch removes the emulatorRequired field and associated
infrastructure from the virCaps object. Instead the driver specific
callbacks are used as this field isn't enforced by all drivers.
This patch implements the appropriate callbacks in the qemu and lxc
driver and moves to check to that location.
This patch removes the defaultDiskDriverName from the virCaps
structure. This particular default value is used only in the qemu driver
so this patch uses the recently added callback to fill the driver name
if it's needed instead of propagating it through virCaps.
This patch implements the devices post parse callback and uses it to fill
the default qemu network card model into the XML if none is specified.
Libvirt assumes that the network card model for qemu is the "rtl8139".
Record this in the XML using the new callback to avoid user
confusion.
This patch adds instrumentation that will allow hypervisor drivers to
fill and validate domain and device definitions after parsed by the XML
parser.
With this patch, after the XML is parsed, a callback to the driver is
issued requesting to fill and validate driver specific details of the
configuration. This allows to use sensible defaults and checks on a per
driver basis at the time the XML is parsed.
Two callback pointers are stored in the new virDomainXMLConf object:
* virDomainDeviceDefPostParseCallback (devicesPostParseCallback)
- called for a single device parsed and for every single device in a
domain config. A virDomainDeviceDefPtr is passed along with the
domain definition and virCaps.
* virDomainDefPostParseCallback, (domainPostParseCallback)
- A callback that is meant to process the domain config after it's
parsed. A virDomainDefPtr is passed along with virCaps.
Both types of callbacks support arbitrary opaque data passed for the
callback functions.
Errors may be reported in those callbacks resulting in a XML parsing
failure.
This patch is the result of running:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep -v html | grep -v \.po$ ); do
sed -i -e "s/virDomainXMLConf/virDomainXMLOption/g" -e "s/xmlconf/xmlopt/g" $i
done

This reverts commit 5ac846e42e.
After further discussions with Alon Levy, I learned the following:
The use of '-vga qxl' vs. '-device qxl-vga' is completely orthogonal
to whether ram_size can be exposed. Downstream distros are interested
in backporting support for multi-head qxl, but this can be done in
one of two ways:
1. Support one head per PCI device. If you do this, then it makes
sense to have full control over the PCI address of each device. For
full control, you need '-device qxl-vga' instead of '-vga qxl'.
2. Support multiple heads through a single PCI device. If you do
this, then you need to allocate more RAM to that PCI device (enough
ram to cover the multiple screens). Here, the device is hard-coded
to 0:0:2.0, both in qemu and libvirt code.
Apparently, backporting ram_size changes to allow multiple heads in
a single device is much easier than backporting multiple device
support. Furthermore, the presence or absence of qxl-vga.surfaces
is no different than the presence or absence of qxl-vga.ram_size;
both properties can be applied regardless of whether you have one
PCI device (-vga qxl) or multiple (-device qxl-vga), so this property
is NOT a good witness of whether '-device qxl-vga' support has been
backported.
Downstream RHEL will NOT be using this patch; and worse, leaving this
patch in risks doing the wrong thing if compiling upstream libvirt
on RHEL, so the best course of action is to revert it. That means
that libvirt will go back to only using '-device qxl-vga' for qemu
>= 1.2, but this is just fine because we know of no distros that plan
on backporting multiple PCI address support to any older version of
qemu. Meanwhile, downstream can still use ram_size to pack multiple
heads through a single PCI device.
This does nothing more than adding the new device and capability.
The device is present since QEMU 1.2.0.

A better way to do this would be to use a configuration file like
[iscsi "target-name"]
user = name
password = pwd
and pass it via -readconfig. This would remove the username and password
from the "ps" output. For now, however, keep this solution.

libiscsi provides a userspace iSCSI initiator.
The main advantage over the kernel initiator is that it is very
easy to provide different initiator names for VMs on the same host.
Thus libiscsi supports usage of persistent reservations in the VM,
which otherwise would only be possible with NPIV.
libiscsi uses "iscsi" as the scheme, not "iscsi+tcp". We can change
this in the tests (while remaining backwards-compatible manner, because
QEMU uses TCP as the default transport for both Gluster and NBD).

This plumbs in the XML description of iSCSI shares. The next patches
will add support for the libiscsi userspace initiator.

The "dtb" option sets the filename for the device tree.
If without this option support, "-dtb file" will be converted into
<qemu:commandline> in domain XML file.
For example, '-dtb /media/ram/test.dtb' will be converted into
<qemu:commandline>
<qemu:arg value='-dtb'/>
<qemu:arg value='/media/ram/test.dtb'/>
</qemu:commandline>
This is not very friendly.
This patchset add special <dtb> tag like <kernel> and <initrd>
which is easier for user to write domain XML file.
<os>
<type arch='ppc' machine='ppce500v2'>hvm</type>
<kernel>/media/ram/uImage</kernel>
<initrd>/media/ram/ramdisk</initrd>
<dtb>/media/ram/test.dtb</dtb>
<cmdline>root=/dev/ram rw console=ttyS0,115200</cmdline>
</os>

QEMU 1.3 and newer support an alternative URI-based syntax to specify
the location of an NBD server. Libvirt can keep on using the old
syntax in general, but only the URI syntax supports IPv6 addresses.
The URI syntax also supports relative paths to Unix sockets. These
should never be used but aren't explicitly blocked either by the parser,
so support it just in case.
The URI syntax is intentionally compatible with Gluster's, and the
code can be reused.

Multi-head QXL support is so useful that distros have started to
backport it to qemu earlier than 1.2. After discussion with
Alon Levy, we determined that the existence of the qxl-vga.surfaces
property is a reliable indicator of whether '-device qxl-vga' works,
or whether we have to stick to the older '-vga qxl'. I'm leaving
in the existing check for QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIDEO_PRIMARY tied to
qemu 1.2 and newer (in case qemu is built without qxl support),
but for those distros that backport qxl, this additional capability
check will allow the correct command line for both RHEL 6.3 (which
lacks the feature) and RHEL 6.4 (where qemu still claims to be
version 0.12.2.x, but has backported multi-head qxl).
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (virQEMUCapsObjectPropsQxlVga): New
property test.
(virQEMUCapsExtractDeviceStr): Probe for backport of new
capability to qemu earlier than 1.2.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-1.2.0-device: Update test.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-1.2.0-device: Likewise.

Likewise.
