062f233b17 docs: drop %.png: %.fig rule
convert bin is part of ImageMagick package and uses uniconvertor to
create png file from fig files.

Unfortunately uniconvertor is python2 only and not available in most
recent distributions which makes the convert command fail with:

sh: uniconvertor: command not found
/usr/bin/mv: cannot stat '/tmp/magick-1397138DRT8Pzx4Qmoc.svg': No such file or directory
convert: delegate failed `'uniconvertor' '%i' '%o.svg'; /usr/bin/mv '%o.svg' '%o'' @ error/delegate.c/InvokeDelegate/1958.
convert: unable to open file `/tmp/magick-1397138S8ARueJXLXkc': No such file or directory @ error/constitute.c/ReadImage/605.
convert: no images defined `docs/migration-managed-direct.png' @ error/convert.c/ConvertImageCommand/3226.

It looks like that there are plans to somehow port uniconvertor into
python3 but as part of different project color-picker but the job is
far from complete.

dcd14c88a1 news: Convert to reStructuredText
Instead of storing release notes as XML and then converting them
to HTML and ASCII at build time using XSLT and a custom script,
we can use reStructuredText as both the source and ASCII
representation and generate HTML from it using the same tooling
we already use for the rest of the documentation.

d600667278 qemu: introduce a new "virt-qemu-run" program
The previous "QEMU shim" proof of concept was taking an approach of only
caring about initial spawning of the QEMU process. It was then
registered with the libvirtd daemon who took over management of it. The
intent was that later libvirtd would be refactored so that the shim
retained control over the QEMU monitor and libvirt just forwarded APIs
to each shim as needed. This forwarding of APIs would require quite alot
of significant refactoring of libvirtd to achieve.

This impl thus takes a quite different approach, explicitly deciding to
keep the VMs completely separate from those seen & managed by libvirtd.
Instead it uses the new "qemu:///embed" URI scheme to embed the entire
QEMU driver in the shim, running with a custom root directory.

Once the driver is initialization, the shim starts a VM and then waits
to shutdown automatically when QEMU shuts down, or should kill QEMU if
it is terminated itself. This ought to use the AUTO_DESTROY feature but
that is not yet available in embedded mode, so we rely on installing a
few signal handlers to gracefully kill QEMU. This isn't reliable if
we crash of course, but you can restart with the same root dir.

Note this program does not expose any way to manage the QEMU process,
since there's no RPC interface enabled. It merely starts the VM and
cleans up when the guest shuts down at the end. This program is
installed to /usr/bin/virt-qemu-run enabling direct use by end users.
Most use cases will probably want to integrate the concept directly
into their respective application codebases. This standalone binary
serves as a nice demo though, and also provides a way to measure
performance of the startup process quite simply.

40780d1a4c docs: introduce rst2man as a mandatory tool for building docs

The intention is that our current POD docs will be converted to

The manual pages will now all be kept in the docs/manpages/ directory,
which enables us to include the man pages in the published website.
This is good for people searching for libvirt man pages online as it
makes it more likely google will send them to the libvirt.org instead
of some random third party man page site with outdated content.

^

phase of the build.

Both are published on the website, but we only link to content in

Both are installed in the libvirt-docs sub-RPM, with a full copy
of the website including 'docs/html/' in /usr/share/docs/libvirt-docs,
while the 'docs/devhelp/' content goes to /usr/share/gtk-doc/. The
latter was broken for years until:

    docs: Introduce $(devhelphtml_generated)

    Our XSLT magic generates one Devhelp-compatible HTML file
    per documentation module, but so far we have only shipped
    and installed documentation for virterror.

    Now that we have $(modules), however, we can generate the
    list of files the same way we do for regular documentation
    and make sure we always ship and install everything.

That this bug went unnoticed for so long is a sign of how few
people are using the devhelp docs. The only commits to the devhelp
code since it was first introduced have been fixing various build
problems that hit.

The only obvious difference between the two sets of docs is the CSS
styling in use. Overall devhelp does not look compelling enough to
justify having two duplicated sets of API docs. Eliminating it will
reduce the amount of XSL code we are carrying in the tree which is
an attractive benefit.

0d44788fc3 backup: Introduce virDomainCheckpoint APIs
Introduce a bunch of new public APIs related to backup checkpoints.
Checkpoints are modeled heavily after virDomainSnapshotPtr (both
represent a point in time of the guest), although a snapshot exists
with the intent of rolling back to that state, while a checkpoint
exists to make it possible to create an incremental backup at a later
time.  We may have a future hypervisor that can completely manage
checkpoints without libvirt metadata, but the first two planned
hypervisors (qemu and test) both always use libvirt for tracking
metadata relations between checkpoints, so for now, I've deferred
the counterpart of virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata for a separate
API addition at a later date if there is ever a need for it.

Note that until we allow snapshots and checkpoints to exist
simultaneously on the same domain (although the actual prevention of
this will be in a separate patch for the sake of an easier revert down
the road), that it is not possible to branch out to create more than
one checkpoint child to a given parent, although it may become
possible later when we revert to a snapshot that coincides with a
checkpoint.  This also means that for now, the decision of which
checkpoint becomes the parent of a newly created one is the only
checkpoint with no child (so while there are APIs for dealing with a
current snapshot, we do not need those for checkpoints).  We may end
up exposing a notion of a current checkpoint later, but it's easier to
add stuff when proven needed than to blindly support it now and wish
we hadn't exposed it.

The following map shows the API relations to snapshots, with new APIs
on the right:

Operate on a domain object to create/redefine a child:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML          virDomainCheckpointCreateXML

Operate on a child object for lifetime management:
virDomainSnapshotDelete             virDomainCheckpointDelete
virDomainSnapshotFree               virDomainCheckpointFree
virDomainSnapshotRef                virDomainCheckpointRef

Operate on a child object to learn more about it:
virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc         virDomainCheckpointGetXMLDesc
virDomainSnapshotGetConnect         virDomainCheckpointGetConnect
virDomainSnapshotGetDomain          virDomainCheckpointGetDomain
virDomainSnapshotGetName            virDomainCheckpiontGetName
virDomainSnapshotGetParent          virDomainCheckpiontGetParent
virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata        (deferred for later)
virDomainSnapshotIsCurrent          (no counterpart, see note above)

Operate on a domain object to list all children:
virDomainSnapshotNum                (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListNames           racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllSnapshots   virDomainListAllCheckpoints

Operate on a child object to list descendents:
virDomainSnapshotNumChildren        (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames   racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllChildren    virDomainCheckpointListAllChildren

Operate on a domain to locate a particular child:
virDomainSnapshotLookupByName       virDomainCheckpointLookupByName
virDomainSnapshotCurrent            (no counterpart, see note above)
virDomainHasCurrentSnapshot         (no counterpart, old racy interface)

Operate on a snapshot to roll back to earlier state:
virDomainSnapshotRevert             (no counterpart, instead checkpoints
                                     are used in incremental backups via
				     XML to virDomainBackupBegin)

3918fb0dc1 docs: introduce a "knowledge base" for task oriented guides
The previously added AMD SEV doc was not linked from anywhere on the
website. Address this by introducing a new "Knowledge base" section
that can hold task oriented guide to various features. Moving the SEV,
disk locking and secure usage guides under this section.

6716c997f6 docs: Install documentation under $(docdir)
At the moment we allow the user to specify exactly where
they want the HTML documentation to be installed with an
extreme level of precision through the --with-html-dir and
--with-html-subdir configure options.

Most of the time, of course, the user will stick with the
default, that is $(datadir)/doc/$(PACKAGE)-$(VERSION)/html.

So close to $(docdir)! Including the version number in
the path, specifically, seems entirely unnecessary since
different releases of libvirt are not going to be able to
coexist on the same system anyway.

Drop all these custom flexibilty for flexibilty's sake
shenaningans in favor of the standard, well understood
$(docdir).

ca6f602546 docs: Introduce $(devhelphtml_generated)
Our XSLT magic generates one Devhelp-compatible HTML file
per documentation module, but so far we have only shipped
and installed documentation for virterror.

Now that we have $(modules), however, we can generate the
list of files the same way we do for regular documentation
and make sure we always ship and install everything.
