Qemu's implementation of virtio RNG supports rate limiting of the
entropy used. This patch exposes the option to tune this functionality.
This patch is based on qemu commit 904d6f588063fb5ad2b61998acdf1e73fb4
The rate limiting is exported in the XML as:
<devices>
...
<rng model='virtio'>
<rate bytes='123' period='1234'/>
<backend model='random'/>
</rng>
...
The native bus for s390 I/O is called CCW (channel command word).
As QEMU has added basic support for the CCW bus, i.e. the
ability to assign CCW devnos (bus addresses) to devices.
Domains with the new machine type s390-ccw-virtio can use the
CCW bus. Currently QEMU will only allow to define virtio
devices on the CCW bus.
Here we add the new machine type and the new device address to the
schema definition and add a new paragraph to the domain XML
documentation.

There is some controversy[1] on the qemu list on whether qemu should
have ever allowed arbitrary file name passthrough, or whether it
should be restricted to JUST /dev/random and /dev/hwrng. It is
always easier to add support for additional filenames than it is
to remove support for something once released, so this patch
restricts libvirt 1.0.3 (where the virtio-random backend was first
supported) to just the two uncontroversial names, letting us defer
to a later date any decision on whether supporting arbitrary files
makes sense. Additionally, since qemu 1.4 does NOT support
/dev/fdset/nnn fd passthrough for the backend, limiting to just
two known names means that we don't get tempted to try fd
passthrough where it won't work.

This patch documents XML elements used for (basic) support of virtual
RNG devices.
In the devices section in the domain XML users may specify:
For the default 'random' backend:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='random'>/dev/urandom</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
For the slightly more advanced EGD backend:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='egd' type='udp'>
<!-- this is a definition of a character device -->
<source mode='bind' service='1234'/>
<source mode='connect' host='1.2.3.4' service='1234'/>
<!-- or other valid character device configuration -->
</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
For the planned random daemon/pool:
<devices>
<rng model='virtio'>
<backend model='pool' pool='poolname'>class</backend>
</rng>
</devices>
to enable the RNG device for guests.
Originally, only a host name was used to associate a
DHCPv6 request with a specific IPv6 address. Further testing
demonstrates that this is an unreliable method and, instead,
a client-id or DUID needs to be used. According to DHCPv6
standards, this id can be a duid-LLT, duid-LL, or duid-UUID
even though dnsmasq will accept almost any text string.
Although validity checking of a specified string makes sure it is
hexadecimal notation with bytes separated by colons, there is no
rigorous check to make sure it meets the standard.
Documentation and schemas have been updated.

Any such defined option will result in a dhcp-option=<number>,"<value>"

Currently, DHCP options can be specified by number only and there is
no whitelisting or blacklisting of option numbers, which should
probably be added.

Hosts for rbd are ceph monitor daemons. These have fixed IP addresses,
so they are often referenced by IP rather than hostname for
convenience, or to avoid relying on DNS. Using IPv4 addresses as the
host name works already, but IPv6 addresses require rbd-specific
escaping because the colon is used as an option separator in the
string passed to qemu.
Escape these colons, and enclose the IPv6 address in square brackets
so it is distinguished from the port, which is currently mandatory.

This patch adds RNG schemas for adding more information in the topology
output of the NUMA section in the capabilities XML.
The added elements are designed to provide more information about the
placement and topology of the processors in the system to management
applications.
A demonstration of supported XML added by this patch:
<capabilities>

The socket_id field represents identification of the physical socket the
CPU is plugged in. This ID may not be identical to the physical socket
ID reported by the kernel.
The core_id identifies a core within a socket. Also this field may not
accurately represent physical ID's.
The core_id is guaranteed to be unique within a cell and a socket. There
may be duplicates between sockets. Only cores sharing core_id within one
cell and one socket can be considered as threads. Cores sharing core_id
within sparate cells are distinct cores.
The siblings field is a list of CPU id's the cpu id's the CPU is sibling
with - thus a thread. The list is in the cpuset format.
Adds a "ram" attribute globally to the video.model element, that changes
the resulting qemu command line only if video.type == "qxl".
<video>
<model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
</video>
That attribute gets a default value of 64*1024. The schema is unchanged
for other video element types.
The resulting qemu command line change is the addition of
-global qxl-vga.ram_size=<ram>*1024
or
-global qxl.ram_size=<ram>*1024
For the main and secondary qxl devices respectively.
The default for the qxl ram bar is 64*1024 kilobytes (the same as the
default qxl vram bar size).
Add an optional 'type' attribute to <target> element of serial port
device. There are two choices for its value, 'isa-serial' and
'usb-serial'. For backward compatibility, when attribute 'type' is
missing the 'isa-serial' will be chosen as before.
Libvirt XML sample
<serial type='pty'>
<target type='usb-serial' port='0'/>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
</serial>
qemu commandline:
qemu ${other_vm_args} \
-chardev pty,id=charserial0 \
-device usb-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0,bus=usb.0,port=1
The SCLP console is the native console type for s390 and is preferred
over the virtio console as it doesn't require special drivers and
is more efficient. Recent versions of QEMU come with SCLP support
which is hereby enabled.
The new target types 'sclp' and 'sclplm' can be used to specify a
SCLP console. Adding documentation, domain schema and XML processing

This introduces new XML tag "sgio" for disk, its valid values
are "filtered" and "unfiltered", setting it as "filtered" will
set the disk's unpriv_sgio to 0, and "unfiltered" to set it
as 1, which allows the unprivileged SG_IO commands.
The <hostdev> device type has long had a redundant "mode"
attribute, which has always been "subsys". This finally
introduces a new mode "capabilities", which will be used
by the LXC driver for device assignment. Since container
based virtualization uses a single kernel, the idea of
assigning physical PCI devices doesn't make sense. It is
still reasonable to assign USB devices, but for assigning
arbitrary nodes in /dev, the new 'capabilities' mode is
to be used.
The first capability support is 'storage', which is for
assignment of block devices. Functionally this is really
pretty similar to the <disk> support. The only difference
is the device node name is identical in both host and
container namespaces.
<hostdev mode='capabilities' type='storage'>
<source>
<block>/dev/sdf1</block>
</source>
</hostdev>
The second capability support is 'misc', which is for
assignment of character devices. There is no existing
parallel to this. Again the device node is the same
inside & outside the container.
<hostdev mode='capabilities' type='misc'>
<source>
<char>/dev/input/event3</char>
</source>
</hostdev>
The reason for keeping the char & storage devices
separate in the domain XML, is to mirror the split
in the node device XML. NB the node device XML does
not yet report character devices, but that's another
new patch to come

If there are multiple video devices
primary = 'yes' marks this video device as the primary one.
The rest are secondary video devices. No more than one could be
mark as primary. If none of them has primary attribute, the first
one will be the primary by default like what it was.
The reason of this changing is that for qemu, only one primary video
device is permitted which can be of any type. For secondary video
devices, only qxl is allowd. Primary attribute removes the restriction
that the first have to be the primary one.
We always put the primary video device into the first position of
video device structure array after parsing.
This is however supported only on domain interfaces with
type='network'. Moreover, target network needs to have at least
inbound QoS set. This is required by hierarchical traffic shaping.
From now on, the required attribute for <inbound/> is either 'average'
(old) or 'floor' (new). This new attribute can be used just for
interfaces type of network (<interface type='network'/>) currently.
The DHCPv6 support includes IPV6 dhcp-range and dhcp-host for one
IPv6 subnetwork on one interface. This support will only work
if dnsmasq version >= 2.64; otherwise an error occurs if
dhcp-range or dhcp-host is specified for an IPv6 address.
Essentially, this change provides the same DHCP support for IPv6
that has been available for IPv4.
With dnsmasq >= 2.64, support for the RA service is also now provided
by dnsmasq (radvd is no longer used/started). (Although at least one
version of dnsmasq prior to 2.64 "supported" IPv6 Router
Advertisement, there were bugs (fixed in 2.64) that rendered it
unusable.)
Documentation and the network schema has been updated
to reflect the new support.
QEMU supports setting vendor and product strings for disk since
1.2.0 (only scsi-disk, scsi-hd, scsi-cd support it), this patch
exposes it with new XML elements <vendor> and <product> of disk
device.
This patch adds the capability for virtual guests to do IPv6
communication via a virtual network interface with no IPv6 (gateway)
addresses specified. This capability has always been enabled by
default for IPv4, but disabled for IPv6 for security concerns, and
because it requires the ip6tables command to be operational (which
isn't the case on a system with the ipv6 module completely disabled).
This patch adds a new attribute "ipv6" at the toplevel of a <network>
object. If ipv6='yes', the extra ip6tables rules required to permite
inter-guest communications are added when the network is started. If
it is 'no', or not present, those rules will not be added; thus the
default behavior doesn't change, so there should be no compatibility
issues with any existing installations.
Note that virtual guests cannot communication with the virtualization
host via this interface, because the following kernel tunable has
been set:
net.ipv6.conf.<bridge_interface_name>.disable_ipv6 = 1
This assures that the bridge interface will not have an IPv6
link-local (fe80::) address.
To control this behavior so that it is not enabled by default, the parameter
ipv6='yes' on the <network> statement has been added.
Documentation related to this patch has been updated.
The network schema has also been updated.
This patch introduces the RNG schema and updates necessary data strucutures
to allow various hypervisors to make use of Gluster protocol as one of the
supported network disk backend. Next patch will add support to make use of
this feature in Qemu since it now supports Gluster protocol as one of the
network based storage backend.
Two new optional attributes for <host> element are introduced - 'transport'
and 'socket'. Valid transport values are tcp, unix or rdma. If none specified,
tcp is assumed. If transport is unix, socket specifies path to unix socket.
This patch allows users to specify disks on gluster backends like this:
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='gluster' name='Volume1/image'>
<host name='example.org' port='6000' transport='tcp'/>
</source>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='gluster' name='Volume2/image'>
<host transport='unix' socket='/path/to/sock'/>
</source>
<target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>

Each <domainsnapshot> can now contain an optional <memory>
element that describes how the VM state was handled, similar
to disk snapshots. The new element will always appear in
output; for back-compat, an input that lacks the element will
assume 'no' or 'internal' according to the domain state.
Along with this change, it is now possible to pass <disks> in
the XML for an offline snapshot; this also needs to be wired up
in a future patch, to make it possible to choose internal vs.
external on a per-disk basis for each disk in an offline domain.
At that point, using the --disk-only flag for an offline domain
will be able to work.
For some examples below, remember that qemu supports the
following snapshot actions:
qemu-img: offline external and internal disk
savevm: online internal VM and disk
migrate: online external VM
transaction: online external disk
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='no'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
implies that there is no VM state saved (mandatory for
offline and disk-only snapshots, not possible otherwise);
using qemu-img for offline domains and transaction for online.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='internal'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
state is saved inside one of the disks (as in qemu's 'savevm'
system checkpoint implementation). If needed in the future,
we can also add an attribute pointing out _which_ disk saved
the internal state; maybe disk='vda'.
=====
<domainsnapshot>
<memory snapshot='external' file='/path/to/state'/>
...
</domainsnapshot>
This is not wired up yet, but future patches will allow this to
control a combination of 'virsh save /path/to/state' plus disk
snapshots from the same point in time.
=====
So for 1.0.1 (and later, as needed), I plan to implement this table
of combinations, with '*' designating new code and '+' designating
existing code reached through new combinations of xml and/or the
existing DISK_ONLY flag:
domain memory disk disk-only | result

At one point, the code passed through arbitrary strings for file
formats, which supposedly lets qemu handle a new file type even
before libvirt has been taught to handle it. However, to properly
label files, libvirt has to learn the file type anyway, so we
might as well make our life easier by only accepting file types
that we are prepared to handle. This patch lets the RNG validation
ensure that only known strings are let through.

Hypervisors are starting to support HyperV Enlightenment features that
improve behavior of guests running Microsoft Windows operating systems.
This patch adds support for the "relaxed" feature that improves timer
behavior and also establishes a framework to add these features in
future.
When startupPolicy set for a USB devices allows such device to be
missing, there was no way this could be detected from domain XML. With
this patch, libvirt emits a new missing='yes' attribute for such devices
when active domain XML is generated.
USB devices can disappear without OS being mad about it, which makes
them ideal for startupPolicy. With this attribute, USB devices can be
configured to be mandatory (the default), requisite (will disappear
during migration if they cannot be found), or completely optional.
While current on_{poweroff,reboot,crash} action configuration is about
configuring life cycle actions, they can all be considered events and
actions that need to be done on a particular event. Let's generalize the
code by renaming life cycle actions to event actions so that it can be
reused later for non-lifecycle events.
This allows the user to control labelling of each character device
separately (the default is to inherit from the VM).

Sometimes when guest machine crashes, coredump can get huge due to the
guest memory. This can be limited using madvise(2) system call and is
being used in QEMU hypervisor. This patch adds an option for configuring
that in the domain XML and related documentation.
Whenever the guest machine fails to boot, new parameter (reboot-timeout)
controls whether it should reboot and after how many ms it should do so.
Docs included.
New options is added to support EOI (End of Interrupt) exposure for
guests. As it makes sense only when APIC is enabled, I added this into
the <apic> element in <features> because this should be tri-state
option (cannot be handled as standalone feature).
