Diff to v1:
- reword statements
With this patch, it is hopefully a bit more obvious that for
snapshot-create-as, a literal '--diskspec' is mandatory if name
or description was omitted, but optional if all earlier options
were provided.
These all denote two diskspecs and a description:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc vda vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc --diskspec vda vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc vda --diskspec vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb name desc
This gives two diskspecs but no description:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb
And this treats 'vda' as the description, with only one diskspec:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name vda vdb
The help output now shows:
snapshot-create-as <domain> [<name>] [<description>] [--print-xml] [--no-metadata] [--halt] [--disk-only] [[--diskspec] <string>]...
I also checked the help output for echo and send-key, which are two
other variants of argv commands.
* tools/virsh.pod (snapshot-create-as): Document when a literal
--diskspec must preceed a diskspec argument.
* tools/virsh.c (vshCmddefHelp): Update help output for argv when
naming the option is useful.
(vshCmddefGetData): Fix logic on when argv was seen.
* tests/virsh-optparse: Add tests to avoid regressions.
The new doc text had a few readability issues. Also, the
monitor command text copied a bit too much from the attach case.
* src/libvirt-qemu.c (virDomainQemuMonitorCommand)
(virDomainQemuAttach): Fix typos and grammar.
Adjust qemuMigrationRun() to use migMaxBandwidth in qemuDomainObjPrivate
structure when setting qemu migration speed. Caller-specified 'resource'
parameter overrides migMaxBandwidth.
The qemu migration speed default is 32MiB/s as defined in migration.c
/* Migration speed throttling */
static int64_t max_throttle = (32 << 20);
There's no need to throttle migration when targeting a file, so set migration
speed to unlimited prior to migration, and restore to libvirt default value
after migration.
Default units is MB for migrate_set_speed monitor command, so
(INT64_MAX / (1024 * 1024)) is used for unlimited migration speed.
Tested with both json and text monitors.
Now that migration speed is stored in qemuDomainObjPrivate structure,
save the new value when invoking qemuDomainMigrateSetMaxSpeed().
Allow setting migration speed on inactive domain too.
The maximum bandwidth that can be consumed when migrating a domain
is better classified as an operational vs configuration parameter of
the dommain. As such, store this parameter in qemuDomainObjPrivate
structure.
Commit c246b025 added new functions, but forgot to export them,
resulting in a build failure when using modules.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (network.h): Export new functions.
Commit 973fcd8f introduced the ability for qemu to reject snapshot
reversion on an ABI incompatibility; but the very example that was
first proposed on-list[1] as a demonstration of an ABI incompatibility,
namely that of changing the max memory allocation, was not being
checked for, resulting in a cryptic failure when running with larger
max mem than what the snapshot was created with:
error: operation failed: Error -22 while loading VM state
This commit merely protects the three variables within mem that are
referenced by qemu_command.c, rather than all 7 (the other 4 variables
affect cgroup handling, but as far as I can tell, have no visible effect
to the qemu guest). This also affects migration and save file handling,
which are other places where we perform ABI compatibility checks.

* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefCheckABIStability): Add
memory sizing checks.
Commit 498d783 cleans up some of virtual file names for parsing strings
in memory. This patch cleans up (hopefuly) the rest forgotten by the
first patch.
This patch also changes all of the previously modified "filenames" to
valid URI's replacing spaces for underscores.
Changes to v1:
- Replace all spaces for underscores, so that the strings form valid
URI's
- Replace spaces in places changed by commit 498d783
Commit 2a0d75e5 added file python/libvirt-qemu-override.c that contains
code that does not pass "make syntax-check". This patch adds an
exception for this file and the check.

Commit ffe28ab74b introduced regression
while communicating with older libvirtd command 'domblkstat' used the new
API and did not check for VIR_ERR_RPC error code signalling the remote
server does not support this API and did not fall back to older API.
Thereafter 'domblkstat' ended with "error: unknown procedure: 243".
Regression introduced in commit 3881a470, due to an improper rebase
of a cleanup written beforehand but only applied after a rebased of
a refactoring that created a new function in commit 25fb3ef.
Also avoids passing NULL to printf %s.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: In qemuDomainSnapshotForEachQcow2()
it free up the memory of qemu_driver->qemuImgBinary in the
cleanup tag which leads to the garbage value of qemuImgBinary
in qemu_driver struct and libvirtd crash when running
"virsh snapshot-create" command a second time.

This is a bit painful for example when starting virt-manager
it tends to clutter libvirtd.log with invalid operation on cpu pinning
for defined but not running domains. A priori those kind of errors
don't indicate an error when executing the command but on a precondition
for running the API, and honnestly while the application should report
it, logging it as an error in libvirtd.log is not really useful,
Related bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=590807
* daemon/libvirtd.c: extend daemonErrorLogFilter() to filter out
errors of type VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID
'+' in strings get translated to ' ' when editing domains.
While xenDaemonDomainCreateXML() did URL-escape the sexpr,
xenDaemonDomainDefineXML() did not.
Remove the explicit urlencode() in xenDaemonDomainCreateXML() and add
the direct encoding calls to xend_op_ext() because it calls xend_post()
which uses "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded". According
to <http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/interact/forms.html#h-17.13.4.1> this
requires all parameters to be url-encoded as specified in rfc1738.
Notice: virBufferAsprintf(..., "%s=%s", ...) is again replaced by three
calls to virBufferURIEncodeString() and virBufferAddChar() because '='
is a "reserved" character, which would get escaped by
virBufferURIEncodeString(), which - by the way - escapes anything not
c_isalnum().

While parsing XML strings from memory, the previous convention in
libvirt was to set the virtual file name to "domain.xml" or something
similar. This could potentialy trick the user into looking for a file
named domain.xml on the disk in an attempt to fix the error.
This patch changes these filenames to something that can't be as easily
confused for a valid filename.
Examples of error messages:
---------------------------
Error while loading file from disk:
15:07:59.015: 527: error : catchXMLError:709 : /path/to/domain.xml:1: StartTag: invalid element name
<domain type='kvm'><
--------------------^
Error while parsing definition in memory:
15:08:43.581: 525: error : catchXMLError:709 : (domain definition):2: error parsing attribute name
<name>vm1</name>
--^
Regression introduced in commit d6f6b2d194. Running
'virsh snapshot-create dom' would mistakenly report that
disks can only be specified for disk snapshots.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotDefParseString): Only
give error about no disk support when <disk> was found.
This has the added benefit of making 'snapshot-create dom --no-metadata'
now able to tell you the name of the just-generated snapshot.
* tools/virsh.c (vshSnapshotCreate, cmdSnapshotCurrent): Don't get
XML just for name.
These functions access internals of the opaque object, and do
not need any rpc counterpart. It could be argued that we should
have provided these when snapshot objects were first introduced,
since all the other vir*Ptr objects have at least a GetName accessor.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSnapshotGetName)
(virDomainSnapshotGetDomain, virDomainSnapshotGetConnect): Declare.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotGetName)
(virDomainSnapshotGetDomain, virDomainSnapshotGetConnect): New
functions.
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export them.
Xen PV domU's have no PCI bus. node_device_udev.c calls pci_system_init
which looks for /sys/bus/pci. If it does not find /sys/bus/pci (which it
won't in a Xen PV domU) it returns unsuccesfully (ENOENT), which libvirt
considers fatal. This makes libvirt unusable in this environment, even
though there are plenty of valid virtualisation options that work
there (LXC, UML, and QEmu spring to mind)

Regression introduced in commit 89b6284fd, due to an incorrect

Although we were initializing worker threads during pool creating,
we missed this during virThreadPoolSendJob. This bug led to segmenation
fault as worker thread free() given argument.
Two new commands are added to virsh that wrap usage of
virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags for changing link state of domain's network
interfaces. These wrappers extract network devices's xml configuration
and modify the link state for easy manipulation from an user's perspective.
- domif-setlink - set link state of a domains virtual network interface
- domif-getlink - get link state
* tools/virsh.c - Add functionality to virsh
* tools/virsh.pod - Manpage documentation
This patch enables modifying network device configuration using the
virUpdateDeviceFlags API method. Matching of devices is accomplished
using MAC addresses.
While updating live configuration of a running domain, the user is
allowed only to change link state of the interface. Additional
modifications may be added later. For now the code checks for
unsupported changes and thereafter changes the link state, if
applicable.
When updating persistent configuration of guest's network interface the
whole configuration (except for the MAC address) may be modified and
is stored for the next startup.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c - Add dispatching of virUpdateDevice for
network devices update (live/config)
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c - add setting of initial link state on live
device addition
- add function to change network device
configuration. By now it supports only
changing of link state
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.h - Headers to above functions
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c - set link states before virtual machine
start. Qemu does not support setting of
this on the command line.
