Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:
typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;
But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.

The <teaming> element in <interface> allows pairing two interfaces
together as a simple "failover bond" network device in a guest. One of
the devices is the "transient" interface - it will be preferred for
all network traffic when it is present, but may be removed when
necessary, in particular during migration, when traffic will instead
go through the other interface of the pair - the "persistent"
interface. As it happens, in the QEMU implementation of this teaming
pair (called "virtio failover" in QEMU) the transient interface is
always a host network device assigned to the guest using VFIO (aka
"hostdev"); the persistent interface is always an emulated virtio NIC.
When support was initially added for <teaming>, it was written to
require that the transient/hostdev device be defined using <interface
type='hostdev'>; this was done because the virtio failover
implementation in QEMU and the virtio guest driver demands that the
two interfaces in the pair have matching MAC addresses, and the only
way libvirt can guarantee the MAC address of a hostdev network device
is to use <interface type='hostdev'>, whose main purpose is to
configure the device's MAC address before handing the device to
QEMU. (note that <interface type='hostdev'> in turn requires that the
network device be an SRIOV VF (Virtual Function), as that is the only
type of network device whose MAC address we can set in a way that will
survive the device's driver init in the guest).
It has recently come up that some users are unable to use <teaming>
because they are running in a container environment where libvirt
doesn't have the necessary privileges or resources to set the VF's MAC
address (because setting the VF MAC is done via the same device's PF
(Physical Function), and the PF is not exposed to libvirt's container).
At the same time, these users *are* able to set the VF's MAC address
themselves in advance of staring up libvirt in the container. So they
could theoretically use the <teaming> feature if libvirt just skipped
the "setting the MAC address" part.
Fortunately, that is *exactly* the difference between <interface
type='hostdev'> (which must be a "hostdev VF") and <hostdev> (a "plain
hostdev" - it could be *any* PCI device; libvirt doesn't know what type
of PCI device it is, and doesn't care).
But what is still needed is for libvirt to provide a small bit of
information on the QEMU commandline argument for the hostdev, telling
QEMU that this device will be part of a team ("failover pair"), and
the id of the other device in the pair.
To make both of those goals simultaneously possible, this patch adds
support for the <teaming> element to plain <hostdev> - libvirt doesn't
try to set any MAC addresses, and QEMU gets the extra commandline
argument it needs)
(actually, this patch adds only the parsing/formatting of the
<teaming> element in <hostdev>. The next patch will actually wire that
into the qemu driver.)

When running on host with systemd we register VMs with machined.
In this case systemd creates the root VM cgroup for us. This has some
implications where one of them is that systemd owns all files inside
the root VM cgroup and we should not touch them.
We already use DBus calls for some of the APIs but for the remaining
ones we will continue accessing the files directly. Systemd doesn't
support threaded cgroups so we need to do this.
The reason why we don't use DBus for most of the APIs is that we already
have a code that works with files and we would have to check if systemd
supports each API.
This change introduces new topology on systemd hosts:

used to back guest's NVDIMM (model='nvdimm') the persistence of
guest writes might not be guaranteed while with virtio-pmem it

To express this new model at domain XML level, I've chosen the
following:
<memory model='virtio-pmem' access='shared'>
<source>
<path>/tmp/virtio_pmem</path>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524288</size>

<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>

the former supports NUMA node locality the latter doesn't. And
also, the latter goes onto PCI bus and not into a DIMM module.

because of SWIOTLB limitations and the way virtio has to use it over
DMA-API for SEV (see [1] for detailed info). That is no longer true, so
reword the kbase article accordingly.
For reference, these are the upstream kernel commits lifting the
virtio-blk limitation:

Since docs generated from RST by docutils have a '<div class='document'
id='$DOCNAME>' we actually don't need an extra wrapper for them.
Additionally if we standardize on one of them we can use the same styles
for both. I've picked the latter because it makes more sense to use the
document name as 'id'.
This patch:
1) Modifies the XSL trasformation to add the wrapper only if it's not
present.
2) Modifies the XSL transformation to use 'id' for document name and
class='document' for the wrapper element.

This patch adds new schema and adds support for parsing and formatting
domain configurations that include vdpa devices.
vDPA network devices allow high-performance networking in a virtual
machine by providing a wire-speed data path. These devices require a
vendor-specific host driver but the data path follows the virtio
specification.
When a device on the host is bound to an appropriate vendor-specific
driver, it will create a chardev on the host at e.g. /dev/vhost-vdpa-0.
That chardev path can then be used to define a new interface with
type='vdpa'.

Meson unfortunately doesn't give us any means to share the code using
xsltproc to output HTMLs processed by our template. This means we will
have to resort to copy&paste engineering.
To make things simpler, let's use the same block of code in
docs/meson.build but also any of the subdirs which generate htmls.
This will be achieved by making it configurable and wrapping it in a
comment that instructs anybody editing it to keep it identical.
We need to be able to configure the template file used and installation
directory. The rest of the processing is same as we do in
docs/meson.build.
This code will then be copied to subdirs to refactor the current
approach used there.

Since we no longer reformat the XSLT-transformed files, there's no need
to use an external script any more.
Unfortunately this hid errors from 'xsltproc' as return value was not
checked and the stderr was piped into xmllints stdin. The result was
that any invalid input file would result into an empty output file.
Since the script's only purpose was to prevent additional temporary
files at the time we were reformatting the output in a pipeline we no
longer need this.
Moving the generation directly into the meson definition makes it more
obvious what's happening and saves readers from having to parse what's
going on. A free bonus is that errors are now properly caught and
reported.
This patch converts the main docs/ directory for now with cleanup of
other comming later.

These XML attributes have been mandatory since the introduction of SEV
support to libvirt. This design decision was based on QEMU's
requirement for these to be mandatory for migration purposes, as
differences in these values across platforms must result in the
pre-migration checks failing (not that migration with SEV works at the
time of this patch).
Expecting the user to specify these is cumbersome and the same XML
cannot be re-used across different revisions of SEV. Since
we have SEV platform information saved in QEMU capabilities, we can
make the attributes optional and should fill them in automatically
in the QEMU driver right before starting it.

Hyper-V version numbers are not compatible with the encoding in

For example, the Windows Server 2016 Hyper-V version is 10.0.14393: its
micro is over 14 times larger than the encoding allows.
This commit repacks the Hyper-V version number in order to preserve all
of the digits. The major and minor are concatenated (with minor zero-
padded to two digits) to form the repacked major value. This works
because Microsoft's major and minor versions numbers are unlikely to
exceed 99. The repacked minor value is derived from the digits in the
thousands, ten-thousands, and hundred-thousands places of Hyper-V's
micro. The repacked micro is derived from the digits in the ones, tens,

In [1], changes were made to remove the existing auto-alignment
for pSeries NVDIMM devices. That design promotes strange situations
where the NVDIMM size reported in the domain XML is different
from what QEMU is actually using. We removed the auto-alignment
and relied on standard size validation.
However, this goes against Libvirt design philosophy of not
tampering with existing guest behavior, as pointed out by Daniel
in [2]. Since we can't know for sure whether there are guests that
are relying on the auto-alignment feature to work, the changes
made in [1] are a direct violation of this rule.
This patch reverts [1] entirely, re-enabling auto-alignment for

There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.

Local socket connections were outright disabled because there was no "server"
part in the URI. However, given how requirements and usage scenarios are
evolving, some management apps might need the source libvirt daemon to connect
to the destination daemon over a UNIX socket for peer2peer migration. Since we
cannot know where the socket leads (whether the same daemon or not) let's decide
that based on whether the socket path is non-standard, or rather explicitly
specified in the URI. Checking non-standard path would require to ask the
daemon for configuration and the only misuse that it would prevent would be a
pretty weird one. And that's not worth it. The assumption is that whenever
someone uses explicit UNIX socket paths in the URI for migration they better
know what they are doing.

the configuration space in order to operate properly. To allow writing
any values Xen supports the 'permissive' setting, see xl.cfg(5) man page.
This change models Xen's permissive setting by adding a writeFiltering
attribute on the <source> element of a PCI hostdev. When writeFiltering
is set to 'no', the Xen permissive setting will be enabled and guests
will be able to write any values into the device's configuration space.
The permissive setting remains disabled in the absense of the
