If the <sysinfo> system table 'uuid' field is improperly formatted,
then qemu will fail to start the guest with the error:
virsh start dom
error: Failed to start domain dom
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: Invalid SMBIOS UUID string
This was because the parsing rules were lax with respect to allowing extraneous
spaces and dashes in the provided UUID. As long as there were 32 hexavalues
that matched the UUID for the domain the string was accepted. However startup
failed because the string format wasn't correct. This patch will adjust the
string format so that when it's presented to the driver it's in the expected
format.
Added a test for uuid comparison within sysinfo.
QEMU introduced "discard" option for drive since commit a9384aff53,
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.
</...>
This patch exposes the support in libvirt.
QEMU supported "discard" for "-drive" since v1.5.0-rc0:
% git tag --contains a9384aff53
contains
v1.5.0-rc0
v1.5.0-rc1
So this only detects the capability bit using virQEMUCapsProbeQMPCommandLine.
Adding a VNC WebSocket support for QEMU driver. This functionality is
in upstream qemu from commit described as v1.3.0-982-g7536ee4, so the
capability is being recognized based on QEMU version for now.
QEMU introduced command line "-mem-merge=on|off" (defaults to on) to
enable/disable the memory merge (KSM) at guest startup. This exposes
it by new XML:
<memoryBacking>
<nosharepages/>
</memoryBacking>
The XML tag is same with what we used internally for old RHEL.
Files ending in -invalid.xml are expected to violate the
XML schema check. The RBD file does not so must have a
different filename.

The QEMU command line syntax for RBD disks is
file=rbd:pool/image:opt1=val1:opt2=val2...
There is no way to escape the ':' if it appears in the
pool or image name. Thus it must be explicitly forbidden
if it occurs in the libvirt XML. People are known to
be abusing the lack of escaping in current libvirt to
pass arbitrary args to QEMU.

Except the scsi host device's controller is "lsilogic", mapping
between the libvirt attributes and scsi-generic properties is:
libvirt qemu
-----------------------------------------
controller bus ($libvirt_controller.0)
bus channel
target scsi-id
unit lun
For scsi host device with "lsilogic" controller, the mapping is:
('target (libvirt)' must be 0, as it's not used; 'unit (libvirt)
must <= 7).
libvirt qemu
----------------------------------------------------------
controller && bus bus ($libvirt_controller.$libvirt_bus)
unit scsi-id
It's not good to hardcode/hard-check limits of these attributes,
and even worse, these limits are not documented, one has to find
out by either testing or reading the qemu code, I'm looking forward
to qemu expose limits like these one day). For example, exposing
"max_target", "max_lun" for megasas:
static const struct SCSIBusInfo megasas_scsi_info = {
.tcq = true,
.max_target = MFI_MAX_LD,
.max_lun = 255,
.transfer_data = megasas_xfer_complete,
.get_sg_list = megasas_get_sg_list,
.complete = megasas_command_complete,
.cancel = megasas_command_cancel,
};
Example of the qemu command line (lsilogic controller):
-drive file=/dev/sg2,if=none,id=drive-hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0 \
-device scsi-generic,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=8,\
drive=drive-hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0,id=hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0
Example of the qemu command line (virtio-scsi controller):
-drive file=/dev/sg2,if=none,id=drive-hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0 \
-device scsi-generic,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=128,lun=128,\

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
In the past we automatically added a USB controller and assigned
it a PCI address (0:0:1.2) even on machines without a PCI bus.
This didn't break machines with no PCI bus because the command
line for it is just '-usb', with no mention of the PCI bus.
The implicit IDE controller (reserved address 0:0:1.1) has
no command line at all.
Commit b33eb0dc removed the ability to reserve PCI addresses
on machines without a PCI bus. This made them stop working,
since there would always be the implicit USB controller.
Skip the reservation of addresses for these controllers when
there is no PCI bus, instead of failing.
The device option for vfio-pci is nearly identical to that for
pci-assign - only the configfd parameter isn't supported (or needed).
Checking for presence of the bootindex parameter is done separately
from constructing the commandline, similar to how it is done for
pci-assign.
This patch contains tests to check for proper commandline
construction. It also includes tests for parser-formatter-parser
roundtrips (xml2xml), because those tests use the same data files, and
would have failed had they been included before now.
qemu: xml/args tests for VFIO hostdev and <interface type='hostdev'/>
These should be squashed in with the patch that adds commandline
handling of vfio (they would fail at any earlier time).
When all usb controllers connected to the same bus have <master
startport='x'/> specified, none of them have 'id=usb' assigned and
thus qemu fails due to invalid masterport specification (we use 'usb'
for that purpose). Adding a check that at least one of the
controllers is specified without <master startport='x'/> and in case
this happens, error out due to invalid configuration.
Add a "dry run" address allocation to figure out how many bridges
will be needed for all the devices without explicit addresses.
Auto-add just enough bridges to put all the devices on, or up to the
bridge with the largest specified index.
It will simplify later work if the sub-drivers have dedicated
APIs / field names. ie virNetworkDriver should have
virDrvNetworkOpen and virDrvNetworkClose methods

To avoid the collision for creating USB controllers in machine->init()
and -device xx command line, it needs to set usb=off to avoid one USB
controller created in machine->init(). So that libvirt can use -device
or -usb to create USB controller sucessfully.
So QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_USB_OPT capability is added, and it is for QEMU
v1.3.0 onwards which supports USB option.

This introduce a new attribute "num_queues" (same with the good name
QEMU uses) for virtio-scsi controller. An example of the XML:
<controller type='scsi' index='0' model='virtio-scsi' num_queues='8'/>
The corresponding QEMU command line:
-device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0,num_queues=8,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3 \
This patch removes the defaultDiskDriverName from the virCaps
structure. This particular default value is used only in the qemu driver
so this patch uses the recently added callback to fill the driver name
if it's needed instead of propagating it through virCaps.
This patch is the result of running:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep -v html | grep -v \.po$ ); do
sed -i -e "s/virDomainXMLConf/virDomainXMLOption/g" -e "s/xmlconf/xmlopt/g" $i
done
and a few manual tweaks.
Currently, -machine option is used only when dump-guest-core is set.
To use options defined in machine option for newer version of QEMU,
it needs to use -machine xxx, and to be compatible with older version
-M, this patch adds QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_OPT capability for newer
version which supports -machine option.

libiscsi provides a userspace iSCSI initiator.
The main advantage over the kernel initiator is that it is very
easy to provide different initiator names for VMs on the same host.
Thus libiscsi supports usage of persistent reservations in the VM,
which otherwise would only be possible with NPIV.
libiscsi uses "iscsi" as the scheme, not "iscsi+tcp". We can change
this in the tests (while remaining backwards-compatible manner, because
QEMU uses TCP as the default transport for both Gluster and NBD).

The "dtb" option sets the filename for the device tree.
If without this option support, "-dtb file" will be converted into
<qemu:commandline> in domain XML file.
For example, '-dtb /media/ram/test.dtb' will be converted into
<qemu:commandline>
<qemu:arg value='-dtb'/>
<qemu:arg value='/media/ram/test.dtb'/>
</qemu:commandline>
This is not very friendly.
This patchset add special <dtb> tag like <kernel> and <initrd>
which is easier for user to write domain XML file.
<os>
<type arch='ppc' machine='ppce500v2'>hvm</type>
<kernel>/media/ram/uImage</kernel>
<initrd>/media/ram/ramdisk</initrd>
<dtb>/media/ram/test.dtb</dtb>

QEMU 1.3 and newer support an alternative URI-based syntax to specify
the location of an NBD server. Libvirt can keep on using the old
syntax in general, but only the URI syntax supports IPv6 addresses.
The URI syntax also supports relative paths to Unix sockets. These
should never be used but aren't explicitly blocked either by the parser,
so support it just in case.
The URI syntax is intentionally compatible with Gluster's, and the
code can be reused.

The virCaps structure gathered a ton of irrelevant data over time that.
The original reason is that it was propagated to the XML parser
functions.
This patch aims to create a new data structure virDomainXMLConf that
will contain immutable data that are used by the XML parser. This will
allow two things we need:
1) Get rid of the stuff from virCaps
2) Allow us to add callbacks to check and add driver specific stuff
after domain XML is parsed.
This first attempt removes pointers to private data allocation functions
to this new structure and update all callers and function that require
them.
Code that validates the whitelist for the RNG device filename
didn't account for fact that filename may be NULL. This led
to a NULL reference crash. This wasn't caught since the test
suite was not covering this XML syntax
