As reviewing patches upstream it occurred to me, that we have two
functions doing nearly the same: virDomainParseMemory which
expects XML in the following format:
<memory unit='MiB'>1337</memory>
The other function being virDomainHugepagesParseXML expecting the
following format:
<someElement size='1337' unit='MiB'/>
It wouldn't matter to have two functions handle two different
scenarios like this if we could only not copy code that handles
32bit arches around. So this code merges the common parts into
one by inventing new @units_xpath argument to
virDomainParseMemory which allows overriding the default location
of @unit attribute in XML. With this change both scenarios above
can be parsed with virDomainParseMemory.

Commit 6c9a8a4 (Oct 2014) exposed a long-standing issue on 32-bit
machines: code related to virDomainSetMemoryParameters has always
been documented as using a 64-bit limit, but it was implemented by
calling virDomainParseMemory which enforced an 'unsigned long'
limit. Since VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED capped to a
long is -1, but virDomainParseScaledValue no longer accepts
negative values, an attempt to use 2^53-1 as a hard memory limit
started failing the testsuite. However, the problem with capping
things artificially low has existed for much longer - ever since
commits 4888f0fb and 2e22f23 (Mar 2012) switched internal tracking
from 'unsigned long' to 'unsigned long long' (prior to that time,
the cap was a side-effect of the choice of types). We _have_ to
cap the balloon memory values, (no thanks to baked in 'unsigned long'
of API such as virDomainSetMaxMemory or virDomainGetInfo with no
counterpart API that guarantees 64-bit access to those numbers)
but memory parameters have never needed the artificial limit.
At any rate, the solution is to make the parser function gain a
parameter, and only do the reduced 32-bit cap for the values that
are constrained due to API.

It makes sense for none of the callers to have negative value as an
output and, fortunately, if anyone tried defining domain with negative
memory or any other value parsed by virDomainParseScaledValue(), the
resulting value was 0. That means we can error out during parsing as
it won't break anything.

The mode attribute is required for the source element of vhost-user.
Thus virDomainNetDefFormat should always generate a xml with it and not
only when the mode is server.
The commit fixes the issue. And it adds a vhostuser interface in
'client' mode to qemuxml2argv-net-vhostuser.(args|xml) to test this
usecase.

Allow the Xen drivers to determine default vram values. Sane
default vaules depend on the device model being used, so the
drivers are in the best position to determine the defaults.
For the legacy xen driver, it is best to maintain the existing
logic for setting default vram values to ensure there are no
regressions. The libxl driver currently does not support
configuring a video device. Support will be added in a
subsequent patch, where the benefit of this change will be
reaped.

This new attribute will control whether or not libvirt will pay
attention to guest notifications about changes to network device mac
addresses and receive filters. The default for this is 'no' (for
security reasons). If it is set to 'yes' *and* the specified device
model and connection support it (currently only macvtap+virtio) then
libvirt will watch for NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED events, and when it
receives one, it will issue a query-rx-filter command, retrieve the
result, and modify the host-side macvtap interface's mac address and
unicast/multicast filters accordingly.
The functionality behind this attribute will be in a later patch. This
patch merely adds the attribute to the top-level of a domain's
<interface> as well as to <network> and <portgroup>, and adds
documentation and schema/xml2xml tests. Rather than adding even more
test files, I've just added the net attribute in various applicable
places of existing test files.

This patch adds parsing/formatting code as well as documentation for
shared memory devices. This will currently be only accessible in QEMU
using it's ivshmem device, but is designed as generic as possible to
allow future expansion for other hypervisors.
In the devices section in the domain XML users may specify:
- For shmem device using a server:
<shmem name='shmem0'>
<server path='/tmp/socket-ivshmem0'/>
<size unit='M'>32</size>
<msi vectors='32' ioeventfd='on'/>
</shmem>
- For ivshmem device not using an ivshmem server:
<shmem name='shmem1'>
<size unit='M'>32</size>
</shmem>
Most of the configuration is made optional so it also allows
specifications like:
<shmem name='shmem1/>
<shmem name='shmem2'>
<server/>
</shmem>

Add an option 'iothreadpin' to the <cpuset> to allow for setting the
CPU affinity for each IOThread.
The iothreadspin will mimic the vcpupin with respect to being able to
assign each iothread to a specific CPU, although iothreads ids start
at 1 while vcpu ids start at 0. This matches the iothread naming scheme.
Seems when commit id 'ea130e3b' added the checks to ensure each of
the hard_limit, soft_limit, and swap_hard_limit wasn't set at
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED - a copy/paste error of using
the 'hard_limit' for each comparison was done. Adjust the code.
When using split UEFI image, it may come handy if libvirt manages per
domain _VARS file automatically. While the _CODE file is RO and can be
shared among multiple domains, you certainly don't want to do that on
the _VARS file. This latter one needs to be per domain. So at the
domain startup process, if it's determined that domain needs _VARS
file it's copied from this master _VARS file. The location of the
master file is configurable in qemu.conf.
Temporary, on per domain basis the location of master NVRAM file can
be overridden by this @template attribute I'm inventing to the
<nvram/> element. All it does is holding path to the master NVRAM file
from which local copy is created. If that's the case, the map in
qemu.conf is not consulted.

Up to now, users can configure BIOS via the <loader/> element. With
the upcoming implementation of UEFI this is not enough as BIOS and
UEFI are conceptually different. For instance, while BIOS is ROM, UEFI
is programmable flash (although all writes to code section are
denied). Therefore we need new attribute @type which will
differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to
reflect the fact that some images are RO.
Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two
modes:
1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.
2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files
The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the
configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need
yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional
attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable
store file.

The new blockcopy API wants to reuse only a subset of the disk
hotplug parser - namely, we only care about the embedded
virStorageSourcePtr inside a <disk> XML. Strange as it may
seem, it was easier to just parse an entire disk definition,
then throw away everything but the embedded source, than it
was to disentangle the source parsing code from the rest of
the overall disk parsing function. All that I needed was a
couple of tweaks and a new internal flag that determines
whether the normally-mandatory target element can be
gracefully skipped, since everything else was already optional.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainDiskSourceParse): New
prototype.

There are two ways in which security model can make it way into
<seclabel/>. One is as the @model attribute, the second one is
via security_driver knob in qemu.conf. Then, while parsing
<seclabel/> several checks and fix ups of old, stale combinations
are performed. However, iff @model is specified. They are not
done in the latter case. So it's still possible to feed libvirt
with senseless combinations (if qemu.conf is adjusted correctly).
One example of a seclabel that needs some adjustment (in case
security_driver=none in qemu.conf) is:
<seclabel type='dynamic' relabel='yes'/>
The fixup code is copied from virSecurityLabelDefParseXML
(covering the former case) into virSecurityLabelDefsParseXML
(which handles the latter case).

Add a new disk "driver" attribute "iothread" to be parsed as the thread
number for the disk to use. In order to more easily facilitate the usage
and configuration of the iothread, a "zero" for the attribute indicates
iothreads are not supported for the device and a positive value indicates
the specific thread to try and use.
Introduce XML to allowing adding iothreads to the domain. These can be
used by virtio-blk-pci devices in order to assign a specific thread to
handle the workload for the device. The iothreads are the official
implementation of the virtio-blk Data Plane that's been in tech preview
for QEMU.
Coverity complains that checking for domain->def being non NULL in the
if (live) path of virDomainObjAssignDef() would be unnecessary or a
NULL deref since the call to virDomainObjIsActive() would already
dereference domain->def when checking if the def->id field was != -1.
Checked all callers to virDomainObjAssignDef() and each at some point
dereferences (vm)->def->{field} prior to calling when live is true.
In virDomainActualNetDefFormat() a call to virDomainNetGetActualType(def)
was made before a check for (!def) a few lines later. This triggered
Coverity to note the possible NULL deref. Just moving the initialization
to after the !def checks resolves the issue
While working on virDomainBlockCopy, I noticed we had a verify()
concerning internal XML flags that was incomplete after several
recent flag additions; move that up higher in the code to make it
harder to forget to modify on the next flag addition. Adjust
some formatting while at it.

When trying to set an invalid value into iotune element, standard

subelements of the iotune element back to 0 which results in ignoring
those particular subelements by XML generator. Patch further

and in case of an invalid non-integer value raises an error.
