Aeons ago (commit 34dcbbb4, v0.8.2), we added a new libvirt event
(VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_IO_ERROR_REASON) in order to tell the user WHY
the guest halted. This is because at least VDSM wants to react
differently to ENOSPC events (resize the lvm partition to be larger,
and resume the guest as if nothing had happened) from all other events
(I/O is hosed, throw up our hands and flag things as broken). At the
time this was done, downstream RHEL qemu added a vendor extension
'__com.redhat_reason', which would be exactly one of these strings:
"enospc", "eperm", "eio", and "eother". In our stupidity, we exposed
those exact strings to clients, rather than an enum, and we also
return "" if we did not have access to a reason (which was the case
for upstream qemu).
Fast forward to now: upstream qemu commit c7c2ff0c (will be qemu 2.2)
FINALLY adds a 'nospace' boolean, after discussion with multiple
projects determined that VDSM really doesn't care about distinction
between any other error types. So this patch converts 'nospace' into
the string "enospc" for compatibility with RHEL clients that were
already used to the downstream extension, while leaving the reason
blank for all other cases (no change from the status quo).

For the new VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_TUNABLE event we have a bunch of
constants added
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CPUTUNE_<blah>
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_BLKDEVIOTUNE_<blah>
This naming convention is bad for two reasons
- There is no common prefix unique for the events to both
relate them, and distinguish them from other event
constants
- The values associated with the constants were chosen
to match the names used with virConnectGetAllDomainStats
so having EVENT in the constant name is not applicable in
that respect
This patch proposes renaming the constants to
VIR_DOMAIN_TUNABLE_CPU_<blah>
VIR_DOMAIN_TUNABLE_BLKDEV_<blah>

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away it has been decided
that libvirt will manage not only domains but host as well. And
with my latest work on qemu driver supporting huge pages, we miss
the cherry on top: an API to allocate huge pages on the run.
Currently users are forced to log into the host and adjust the
huge pages pool themselves. However, with this API the problem
is gone - they can both size up and size down the pool.

RDMA Live migration requires registering memory with the hardware, and
thus QEMU offers a new 'capability' to pre-register / mlock() the guest
memory in advance for higher RDMA performance before the migration
begins. This capability is disabled by default, which means QEMU will
register the memory with the hardware in an on-demand basis.

We stupidly modeled block job bandwidth after migration
bandwidth, which in turn was an 'unsigned long' and therefore
subject to 32-bit vs. 64-bit interpretations. To work around
the fact that 10-gigabit interfaces are possible but don't fit
within 32 bits, the original interface took the number scaled
as MiB/sec. But this scaling is rather coarse, and it might
be nice to tune bandwidth finer than in megabyte chunks.
Several of the block job calls that can set speed are fed
through a common interface, so it was easier to adjust them all
at once. Note that there is intentionally no flag for the new
virDomainBlockCopy; there, since the API already uses a 64-bit
type always, instead of a possible 32-bit type, and is brand
new, it was easier to just avoid scaling issues. As with the
previous patch that adjusted the query side (commit db33cc24),
omitting the new flag preserves old behavior, and the
documentation now mentions limits of what happens when a 32-bit
machine is on either client or server side.

To date, anyone performing a block copy and pivot ends up with
the destination being treated as <disk type='file'>. While this
works for data access for a block device, it has at least one
noticeable shortcoming: virDomainGetBlockInfo() reports allocation
differently for block devices visited as files (the size of the
device) than for block devices visited as <disk type='block'>
(the maximum sector used, as reported by qemu); and this difference
is significant when trying to manage qcow2 format on block devices
that can be grown as needed.
Of course, the more powerful virDomainBlockCopy() API can already
express the ability to set the <disk> type. But a new API can't
be backported, while a new flag to an existing API can; and it is
also rather inconvenient to have to resort to the full power of
generating XML when just adding a flag to the older call will do
the trick. So this patch enhances blockcopy to let the user flag
when the resulting XML after the copy must list the device as
type='block'.

While reviewing the new virDomainBlockCopy API, Peter Krempa
pointed out that our existing design of using MiB/s for block
job bandwidth is rather coarse, especially since qemu tracks
it in bytes/s; so virDomainBlockCopy only accepts bytes/s.
But once the new API is implemented for qemu, we will be in
the situation where it is possible to set a value that cannot
be accurately reflected back to the user, because the existing
virDomainGetBlockJobInfo defaults to the coarser units.
Fortunately, we have an escape hatch; and one that has already
served us well in the past: we can use the flags argument to
specify which scale to use (see virDomainBlockResize for prior
art). This patch fixes the query side of the API; made easier
by previous patches that split the query side out from the
modification code. Later patches will address the virsh
interface, as well retrofitting all other blockjob APIs to
also accept a flag for toggling bandwidth units.

This commit (finally) adds the virDomainBlockCopy API, with the
intent that it will provide more power to the existing 'virsh
blockcopy' command.
'virsh blockcopy' was first added in Apr 2012 (v0.9.12), which
corresponds to the upstream qemu 1.2 timeframe. It was done as
a hack on top of the existing virDomainBlockRebase() API call,
for two reasons: 1) it was targetting a feature that landed first
in downstream RHEL qemu, but had not stabilized in upstream qemu
at the time (and indeed, 'drive-mirror' only landed upstream in
qemu 1.3 with slight differences to the first RHEL attempt,
and later gained further parameters like granularity and buf-size
that are also worth exposing), and 2) extending an existing API
allowed it to be backported without worrying about bumping .so
versions. A virDomainBlockCopy() API was proposed at that time
[1], but we decided not to accept it into libvirt until after
upstream qemu stabilized, and it ended up getting scrapped.
Whether or not RHEL should have attempted adding a new feature
without getting it upstream first is a debate that can be held
another day; but enough time has now elapsed that we are ready to
do the interface cleanly.
[1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-April/msg00768.html
Delaying the creation of a clean API until now has also had a
benefit: we've only recently learned of a few shortcomings in the
original design: 1) it is unable to target a network destination
(such as a gluster volume) because it hard-coded the assumption
that the destination is a local file name. Because of all the
refactoring we've done to add virStorageSourcePtr, we are in a
better position to declare an API that parses XML describing a
host storage source as the copy destination, which was not
possible had we implemented virDomainBlockCopy as it had been
originally envisioned (although a network target will have to wait
until a later libvirt release compared to the API addition to
actually be implemented). 2) the design of using MiB/sec as the
bandwidth throttle is rather coarse; qemu is actually tuned to
bytes/second, and libvirt is preventing access to that level of
detail. A later patch will add flags to existing block job API
that can request bytes/second instead of back-compat MiB/s, but as
this is a new API, we can get it right to begin with.
At least I had the foresight to create 'virsh blockcopy' as a
separate command at the UI level (commit 1f06c00) rather than
leaking the underlying API overload of virDomainBlockRebase onto
shell users.
A further note on the bandwidth option: virTypedParameters
intentionally lacks unsigned long (since variable-width
interaction between mixed 32- vs. 64-bit client/server setups is
nasty), but we have to deal with the fact that we are interacting
with existing older code that mistakenly chose unsigned long
bandwidth at a point before we decided to prohibit it in all new
API. The typed parameter is therefore unsigned long long, but
the implementation (in a later patch) will have to do overflow
detection on 32-bit platforms, as well as capping the value to
match the LLONG_MAX>>20 cap of the existing MiB/s interfaces.

The motivation for this API is that management layers that use libvirt
usually poll for statistics using various split up APIs we currently
provide. To get all the necessary stuff, the app needs to issue a lot of
calls and aggregate the results.
The APIs I'm introducing here:
1) Returns data in a format that we can expand in the future and is
(pseudo) hierarchical. The data is returned as typed parameters where
the fields are constructed as dot-separated strings containing names and
other stuff in a list of typed params.
2) Stats for multiple (all) domains can be queried at once and are
returned in one call. This will decrease the overhead necessary to issue
multiple calls per domain multiplied by the count of domains.
3) Selectable (bit mask) fields in the returned format. This will allow
to retrieve only specific stats according to the app's need.
The stats groups will be enabled using a bit field @stats passed as the
function argument. A few sample stats groups that this API will support:
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_CPU
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_BLOCK
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_INTERFACE
(Note that this is only an example, the initial implementation supports
only VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE while others will be added later.)
the returned typed params will use the following scheme
state.state = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING
state.reason = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_BOOTED (the actual values according to
the enum)
cpu.count = 8
cpu.0.state = running
cpu.0.time = 1234
Implement ZFS storage backend driver. Currently supported
only on FreeBSD because of ZFS limitations on Linux.
Features supported:
- pool-start, pool-stop
- pool-info
- vol-list
- vol-create / vol-delete
Pool definition looks like that:
<pool type='zfs'>
<name>myzfspool</name>
<source>
<name>actualpoolname</name>
</source>
</pool>
The 'actualpoolname' value is a name of the pool on the system,
such as shown by 'zpool list' command. Target makes no sense
here because volumes path is always /dev/zvol/$poolname/$volname.
User has to create a pool on his own, this driver doesn't
support pool creation currently.
A volume could be used with Qemu by adding an entry like this:
<disk type='volume' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source pool='myzfspool' volume='vol5'/>
<target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>
</disk>

Introduce flag for the block commit API to allow the commit operation to

Instead of maintaining two very similar APIs, add the "@mac" parameter
to virNetworkGetDHCPLeases and kill virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC. Both
of those functions would return data the same way, so making @mac an
optional filter simplifies a lot of stuff.
The new VIR_CONNECT_COMPARE_CPU_FAIL_INCOMPATIBLE flag for
virConnectCompareCPU can be used to get an error
(VIR_ERR_CPU_INCOMPATIBLE) describing the incompatibility instead of the
usual VIR_CPU_COMPARE_INCOMPATIBLE return code.

When CPU comparison APIs return VIR_CPU_COMPARE_INCOMPATIBLE, the caller
has no clue why the CPU is considered incompatible with host CPU. And in
some cases, it would be nice to be able to get such info in a client

To achieve this, the APIs can be told to return VIR_ERR_CPU_INCOMPATIBLE
error for incompatible CPUs and the reason will be described in the
associated error message.

When the block job event was first added, it was for block pull,
where the active layer of the disk remains the same name. It was
also in a day where we only cared about local files, and so we
always had a canonical absolute file name. But two things have
changed since then: we now have network disks, where determining
a single absolute string does not really make sense; and we have
two-phase jobs (copy and active commit) where the name of the
active layer changes between the first event (ready, on the old
name) and second (complete, on the pivoted name).
Adam Litke reported that having an unstable string between events
makes life harder for clients. Furthermore, all of our API that
operate on a particular disk of a domain accept multiple strings:
not only the absolute name of the active layer, but also the
destination device name (such as 'vda'). As this latter name is
stable, even for network sources, it serves as a better string
to supply in block job events.
But backwards-compatibility demands that we should not change the
name handed to users unless they explicitly request it. Therefore,
this patch adds a new event, BLOCK_JOB_2 (alas, I couldn't think of
any nicer name - but at least Migrate2 and Migrate3 are precedent
for a number suffix). We must double up on emitting both old-style
and new-style events according to what clients have registered for
(see also how IOError and IOErrorReason emits double events, but
there the difference was a larger struct rather than changed
meaning of one of the struct members).
Unfortunately, adding a new event isn't something that can easily
be broken into pieces, so the commit is rather large.

We have a policy of avoiding enum types in structs in our public
API, because it is possible for a client to choose compiler options
that can change the in-memory ABI of that struct based on whether
the enum value occupies an int or a minimal size. But we missed
this for virDomainBlockJobInfo. We got lucky on little-endian
machines - if the enum fits minimal size (a char), we still end
up padding to the next long before the next field; but on
big-endian, a client interpreting the enum as a char would always
see 0 when the server supplies contents as an int.

Now that qemu 2.0 allows commit of the active layer, people are
attempting to use virsh blockcommit and getting into a stuck
state, because libvirt is unprepared to handle the two-phase
commit required by qemu.
Stepping back a bit, there are two valid semantics for a
commit operation:
1. Maintain a 'golden' base, and a transient overlay. Make
changes in the overlay, and if everything appears to work,
commit those changes into the base, but still keep the overlay
for the next round of changes; repeat the cycle as desired.
2. Create an external snapshot, then back up the stable state
in the backing file. Once the backup is complete, commit the
overlay back into the base, and delete the temporary snapshot.
Since qemu doesn't know up front which of the two styles is
preferred, a block commit of the active layer merely gets
the job into a synchronized state, and sends an event; then
the user must either cancel (case 1) or complete (case 2),
where qemu then sends a second event that actually ends the
job. However, until commit e6bcbcd, libvirt was blindly
assuming the semantics that apply to a commit of an
intermediate image, where there is only one sane conclusion
(the job automatically ends with fewer elements in the chain);
and getting stuck because it wasn't prepared for qemu to enter
a second phase of the job.
This patch adds a flag to the libvirt API that a user MUST
supply in order to acknowledge that they will be using two-phase
semantics. It might be possible to have a mode where if the
flag is omitted, we automatically do the case 2 semantics on
the user's behalf; but before that happens, I must do additional
patches to track the fact that we are doing an active commit
in the domain XML. Later patches will add support of the flag,
and once 2-phase semantics are working, we can then decide
whether to relax things to allow an omitted flag to cause an
automatic pivot.

These APIs allow users to get or set time in a domain, which may come
handy if the domain has been resumed just recently and NTP is not
configured or hasn't kicked in yet and the guest is running
something time critical. In addition, NTP may refuse to re-set the clock
if the skew is too big.
In addition, new ACL attribute is introduced 'set_time'.

@mountpoints parameters. The parameters can be NULL and 0, then all
mounted filesystems are frozen or thawed. @flags parameter, which are
currently not used, is for future extensions.

The network and nwfilter drivers both have a need to update
firewall rules. The currently share no code for interacting
with iptables / firewalld. The nwfilter driver is fairly
tied to the concept of creating shell scripts to execute
which makes it very hard to port to talk to firewalld via
DBus APIs.
This patch introduces a virFirewallPtr object which is able
to represent a complete sequence of rule changes, with the
ability to have multiple transactional checkpoints with
rollbacks. By formally separating the definition of the rules
to be applied from the mechanism used to apply them, it is
also possible to write a firewall engine that uses firewalld
DBus APIs natively instead of via the slow firewalld-cmd.

--memory-only option is introduced without compression supported. Now qemu
has support for dumping domain's memory in kdump-compressed format. This
patch adds a new virDomainCoreDumpWithFormat API, so that the format in
which qemu dumps domain's memory can be specified.
