The mode can be either of "custom" (default), "host-model",
"host-passthrough". The semantics of each mode is described in the
following examples:
- guest CPU is a default model with specified topology:
<cpu>
<topology sockets='1' cores='2' threads='1'/>
</cpu>
- guest CPU matches selected model:
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact'>
<model>core2duo</model>
</cpu>
- guest CPU should be a copy of host CPU as advertised by capabilities
XML (this is a short cut for manually copying host CPU specification
from capabilities to domain XML):
<cpu mode='host-model'/>
In case a hypervisor does not support the exact host model, libvirt
automatically falls back to a closest supported CPU model and
removes/adds features to match host. This behavior can be disabled by
<cpu mode='host-model'>
<model fallback='forbid'/>
</cpu>
- the same as previous returned by virDomainGetXMLDesc with
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU flag:
<cpu mode='host-model' match='exact'>
<model fallback='allow'>Penryn</model> --+
<vendor>Intel</vendor> |
<topology sockets='2' cores='4' threads='1'/> + copied from
<feature policy='require' name='dca'/> | capabilities XML
<feature policy='require' name='xtpr'/> |
... --+
</cpu>
- guest CPU should be exactly the same as host CPU even in the aspects
libvirt doesn't model (such domain cannot be migrated unless both
hosts contain exactly the same CPUs):
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'/>
- the same as previous returned by virDomainGetXMLDesc with
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU flag:
<cpu mode='host-passthrough' match='minimal'>
<model>Penryn</model> --+ copied from caps
<vendor>Intel</vendor> | XML but doesn't
<topology sockets='2' cores='4' threads='1'/> | describe all
<feature policy='require' name='dca'/> | aspects of the
<feature policy='require' name='xtpr'/> | actual guest CPU
... --+
</cpu>
In case a hypervisor doesn't support the exact CPU model requested by a
domain XML, we automatically fallback to a closest CPU model the
hypervisor supports (and make sure we add/remove any additional features
if needed). This patch adds 'fallback' attribute to model element, which
can be used to disable this automatic fallback.
Create a fake PPC64 QEMU so that we can run PPC64 QEMU tests when we
don't have a real version of the emulator available.

The default console type may vary based on the OS type. ie a Xen
paravirt guests wants a 'xen' console, while a fullvirt guests
wants a 'serial' console.
A plain integer default console type in the capabilities does
not suffice. Instead introduce a callback that is passed the
OS type.
* src/conf/capabilities.h: Use a callback for default console
type
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Use callback
for default console type. Add missing LXC/OpenVZ console types.
* src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/libxl/libxl_conf.c,
src/lxc/lxc_conf.c, src/openvz/openvz_conf.c,
src/phyp/phyp_driver.c, src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c,
src/uml/uml_conf.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c,
src/vmware/vmware_conf.c, src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c,
src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c: Set default console type callback
Thanks to DV for knocking together the Relax-NG changes
quickly for me.
Changes since v1:
- Change the domain.rng to correspond to the new schema
- Don't allocate caps->ns in testQemuCapsInit since it is a static table
Changes since v2:
- Change domain.rng to add restrictions on allowed environment names
Changes since v3:
- Remove a bogus comment in the tests

By specifying <vendor> element in CPU requirements a guest can be
restricted to run only on CPUs by a given vendor. Host CPU vendor is
also specified in capabilities XML.
The vendor is checked when migrating a guest but it's not forced, i.e.,
guests configured without <vendor> element can be freely migrated.
Only print out '.' for each test case, full test output can be
re-enabled with VIR_TEST_VERBOSE=1, or VIR_TEST_DEBUG=XXXX
Sample output now looks like
TEST: statstest
........................................ 40
................................... 75 OK
PASS: statstest
TEST: qparamtest
................................ 32 OK
PASS: qparamtest
TEST:
............ 12 OK
Provide a simple interface for other tests to lookup the testDebug variable.
Also remove a redundant error message in interface tests.
If anyone feels inclined to change this env variable to match the existing
LIBVIRT_* format, it should now be easier to do so.
* tests/testutilsqemu.c: add a machine types list for /usr/bin/kvm
which doesn't have any aliases, while the guest has aliases
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-machine-aliases2.*,
tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: add a test using /usr/bin/kvm and make
sure that 'pc' machine type doesn't get canonicalized using the
aliases in the guest machine type list
* tests/testutilsqemu.c: make 'pc' an alias for qemu-system-x86_64
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-machine-aliases1.*,
tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: add a test which uses qemu-system-x86_64
and make sure the machine type is canonicalized.
A subsequent commit will add a "canonical" field to this structure,
this patch basically just prepares the way for that.
The new type is added, along with virCapabilitiesAlloc/FreeMachines()
helpers and a whole bunch of code to make the transition.
One quirk is that virCapabilitiesAddGuestDomain() and
virCapabilitiesAddGuest() take ownership of the machine list rather
than duping it. This makes sense to avoid needless copying.
* src/capabilities.h: add the virCapsGuestMachine struct and use it
in virCapsGuestDomainInfo, add prototypes for new functions and
update the AddGuest() prototypes
* src/capabilities.c: add code for allocating and freeing the new
type, change the machines parameter to AddGuest() etc.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export the new helpers
* src/qemu_conf.c: update all the machine type code to use the new
struct
* src/xen_internal.c: ditto
* tests/testutilsqemu.c: ditto
