This patch adds an element to QEMU's capability XML, to
show if the underlying QEMU binary supports the live disk
snapshotting or not.
This allows any client to know ahead of time if the feature
is available.
Without this information available, the only way to check
for the snapshot support is to request one and check for
errors.

A earlier commit changed the global log buffer so that it only
records messages that are explicitly requested via the log
filters setting. This removes the performance burden, and
improves the signal/noise ratio for messages in the global
buffer. At the same time though, it is somewhat pointless, since
all the recorded log messages are already going to be sent to an
explicit log output like syslog, stderr or the journal. The
global log buffer is thus just duplicating this data on stderr
upon crash.
The log_buffer_size config parameter is left in the augeas
lens to prevent breakage for users on upgrade. It is however
completely ignored hereafter.

With most of our storage backends it's possible to have two separate
volume keys to point to a single volume. (By creating sym/hard-links to
local files or by mounting remote filesystems to two different locations
and creating pools on top of them) Document this possibility.
Auditing all callers of virCommandRun and virCommandWait that
passed a non-NULL pointer for exit status turned up some
interesting observations. Many callers were merely passing
a pointer to avoid the overall command dying, but without
caring what the exit status was - but these callers would
be better off treating a child death by signal as an abnormal
exit. Other callers were actually acting on the status, but
not all of them remembered to filter by WIFEXITED and convert
with WEXITSTATUS; depending on the platform, this can result
in a status being reported as 256 times too big. And among
those that correctly parse the output, it gets rather verbose.
Finally, there were the callers that explicitly checked that
the status was 0, and gave their own message, but with fewer
details than what virCommand gives for free.
So the best idea is to move the complexity out of callers and
into virCommand - by default, we return the actual exit status
already cleaned through WEXITSTATUS and treat signals as a
failed command; but the few callers that care can ask for raw
status and act on it themselves.

Recent autotest/virt-test testing on f20 discovered an anomaly in how
the bandwidth options are documented and used. This was discovered due
to a bug fix in the /sbin/tc utility found in iproute-3.11.0.1 (on f20)
in which overflow was actually caught and returned as an error. The fix
was first introduced in iproute-3.10 (search on iproute2 commit 'a303853e').
The autotest/virt-test test for virsh domiftune was attempting to send
the largest unsigned integer value (4294967295) for maximum value
testing. The libvirt xml implementation was designed to manage values
in kilobytes thus when this value was passed to /sbin/tc, it (now)
properly rejected the 4294967295kbps value.
Investigation of the problem discovered that formatdomain.html.in and
formatnetwork.html.in described the elements and property types slightly
differently, although they use the same code - virNetDevBandwidthParseRate()
(shared by portgroups, domains, and networks xml parsers). Rather than
have the descriptions in two places, this patch will combine and reword
the description under formatnetwork.html.in and have formatdomain.html.in
link to that description.
This documentation faux pas was continued into the virsh man page where
the bandwidth description for both 'attach-interface' and 'domiftune'
did not indicate the format of each value, thus leading to the test using
largest unsigned integer value assuming "bps" rather than "kbps", which
ultimately was wrong.
The previous OOM testing support would re-run the entire "main"
method each iteration, failing a different malloc each time.
When a test suite has 'n' allocations, the number of repeats
requires is (n * (n + 1) ) / 2. This gets very large, very
quickly.
This new OOM testing support instead integrates at the
virtTestRun level, so each individual test case gets repeated,
instead of the entire test suite. This means the values of
'n' are orders of magnitude smaller.
The simple usage is
$ VIR_TEST_OOM=1 ./qemuxml2argvtest
...
29) QEMU XML-2-ARGV clock-utc ... OK
Test OOM for nalloc=36 .................................... OK
30) QEMU XML-2-ARGV clock-localtime ... OK
Test OOM for nalloc=36 .................................... OK
31) QEMU XML-2-ARGV clock-france ... OK
Test OOM for nalloc=38 ...................................... OK
...
the second lines reports how many mallocs have to be failed, and thus
how many repeats of the test will be run.
If it crashes, then running under valgrind will often show the problem
$ VIR_TEST_OOM=1 ../run valgrind ./qemuxml2argvtest
When debugging problems it is also helpful to select an individual
test case
$ VIR_TEST_RANGE=30 VIR_TEST_OOM=1 ../run valgrind ./qemuxml2argvtest
When things get really tricky, it is possible to request that just
specific allocs are failed. eg to fail allocs 5 -> 12, use
$ VIR_TEST_RANGE=30 VIR_TEST_OOM=1:5-12 ../run valgrind ./qemuxml2argvtest
In the worse case, you might want to know the stack trace of the
alloc which was failed then VIR_TEST_OOM_TRACE can be set. If it
is set to 1 then it will only print if it thinks a mistake happened.
This is often not reliable, so setting it to 2 will make it print
the stack trace for every alloc that is failed.
$ VIR_TEST_OOM_TRACE=2 VIR_TEST_RANGE=30 VIR_TEST_OOM=1:5-5 ../run valgrind ./qemuxml2argvtest
30) QEMU XML-2-ARGV clock-localtime ... OK

Add a new <timer> for the HyperV reference time counter enlightenment
and the iTSC reference page for Windows guests.
This feature provides a paravirtual approach to track timer events for
the guest (similar to kvmclock) with the option to use real hardware
clock on systems with a iTSC with compensation across various hosts.
According to the documentation describing various tunables for domain
timers not all the fields are supported by all the driver types. Express
these in the RNG:
- rtc, platform: Only these support the "track" attribute.
- tsc: only one to support "frequency" and "mode" attributes
- hpet, pit: tickpolicy/catchup attribute/element
- kvmclock: no extra attributes are supported
Additionally the attributes of the <catchup> element for
tickpolicy='catchup' are optional according to the parsing code. Express
this in the XML and fix a spurious space added while formatting the
<catchup> element and add tests for it.

pointed out that we weren't honoring the <bandwidth> element in
libvirt networks using <forward mode='bridge'/>. In fact, these
networks are just a method of giving a libvirt network name to an
existing Linux host bridge on the system, and libvirt doesn't have
enough information to know where to set such limits. We are working on
a method of supporting network bandwidths for some specific cases of
<forward mode='bridge'/>, but currently libvirt doesn't support it. So
the proper thing to do now is just log an error when someone tries to
put a <bandwidth> element in that type of network. (It's unclear if we
will be able to do proper bandwidth limiting for macvtap networks, and
most definitely we will not be able to support it for hostdev
networks).
While looking through the network XML documentation and comparing it
to the networkValidate function, I noticed that we also ignore the
presence of a mac address in the config in the same cases, rather than
failing so that the user will understand that their desired action has
not been taken.
This patch updates networkValidate() (which is called any time a
persistent network is defined, or a transient network created) to log
an error and fail if it finds either a <bandwidth> or <mac> element
and the network forward mode is anything except 'route'. 'nat', or
nothing. (Yes, neither of those elements is acceptable for any macvtap
mode, nor for a hostdev network).
NB: This does *not* cause failure to start any existing network that
contains one of those elements, so someone might have erroneously
defined such a network in the past, and that network will continue to
function unmodified. I considered it too disruptive to suddenly break
working configs on the next reboot after a libvirt upgrade.

It doesn't make sense to fail if the SCSI host device is specified
as "shareable" explicitly between domains (NB, it works if and only
if the device is specified as "shareable" for *all* domains,
otherwise it fails).
To fix the problem, this patch introduces an array for virSCSIDevice
struct, which records all the names of domain which are using the
device (note that the recorded domains must specify the device as
shareable). And the change on the data struct brings on many
subsequent changes in the code.
Prior to this patch, the "shareable" tag didn't work as expected,
it actually work like "non-shareable". So this patch also added notes
in formatdomain.html to declare the fact.

- Change definition of virSCSIDeviceGetUsedBy and virSCSIDeviceListDel

memory corruption
- virSCSIDeviceIsAvailable: New
- virSCSIDeviceListDel: Change the logic, for device which is already
in the list, just remove the corresponding entry in "used_by". And
since it's only used in one place, we can safely removing the code
to find out the dev in the list first.

In the 'directory' and 'netfs' storage pools, a user can see

'network-dir' is better than reusing 'dir', because it makes

Oops. That's not valid XML. And when we fix the XML

output for volume xml; while we used NULLSTR() to avoid
a NULL deref rather than relying on glibc's printf
extension behavior, it's even better if we avoid the issue

we don't invalidate any storage backends that were relying
on key being unassigned during virStoragVolCreateXML[From].
I would have split this into two patches (one for escaping,
one for avoiding <key>(null)</key>), but since they both
end up touching a lot of the same test files, I ended up
merging it into one.
Note that this patch allows pretty much any volume name
that can appear in a directory (excluding . and .. because
those are special), but does nothing to change the current
(unenforced) RelaxNG claim that pool names will consist
only of letters, numbers, _, -, and +. Tightening the C
code to match RelaxNG patterns and/or relaxing the grammar
to match the C code for pool names is a task for another
day (but remember, we DID recently tighten C code for
domain names to exclude a leading '.').

While trying to compare netfs against my new gluster pool, I
discovered two things:
virt-xml-validate chokes on valid xml produced by 'virsh pool-dumpxml'
[yet another reason that ALL patches that add new xml should be adding
corresponding tests]
When using glusterfs FUSE mounts, you cannot access a subdirectory
of a gluster volume. The recommended workaround in the gluster
community is to mount the volume to an intermediate location, then
bind-mount the desired subdirectory to the final location. Maybe
we should teach libvirt to do bind-mounting, but for now I chose to
just document the limitation.

The linux kernel recently added support for paravirtual spinlock
handling to avoid performance regressions on overcomitted hosts. This
feature needs to be turned in the hypervisor so that the guest OS is
notified about the possible support.
This patch adds a new feature "paravirt-spinlock" to the XML and
supporting code to enable the "kvm_pv_unhalt" pseudo CPU feature in
qemu.

Expand the "secmodel" XML fragment of "host" with a sequence of
baselabel's which describe the default security context used by
libvirt with a specific security model and virtualization type:
<secmodel>
<model>selinux</model>
<doi>0</doi>
<baselabel type='kvm'>system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0</baselabel>
<baselabel type='qemu'>system_u:system_r:svirt_tcg_t:s0</baselabel>
</secmodel>
<secmodel>
<model>dac</model>
<doi>0</doi>
<baselabel type='kvm'>107:107</baselabel>
<baselabel type='qemu'>107:107</baselabel>
</secmodel>
"baselabel" is driver-specific information, e.g. in the DAC security
model, it indicates USER_ID:GROUP_ID.

Prefer using VFIO (if available) to the legacy KVM device passthrough.
With this patch a PCI passthrough device without the driver configured
will be started with VFIO if it's available on the host. If not legacy
KVM passthrough is checked and error is reported if it's not available.
Since 76b644c when the support for RAM filesystems was introduced,
libvirt accepted the following XML:
<source usage='1024' unit='KiB'/>
This was parsed correctly and internally stored in bytes, but it
was formatted as (with an extra 's'):
<source usage='1024' units='KiB'/>
When read again, this was treated as if the units were missing,
meaning libvirt was unable to parse its own XML correctly.
The usage attribute was documented as being in KiB, but it was not
scaled if the unit was missing. Transient domains still worked,
because this was balanced by an extra 'k' in the mount options.
This patch:
Changes the parser to use 'units' instead of 'unit', as the latter
was never documented (fixing persistent domains) and some programs
(libvirt-glib, libvirt-sandbox) already parse the 'units' attribute.
Removes the extra 'k' from the tmpfs mount options, which is needed
because now we parse our own XML correctly.
Changes the default input unit to KiB to match documentation, fixing:

Commit id 'c4a4603de' added an output <path> to the nodedev xml, but
did not update the schema.
This resulted in the failure of the 'virt-xml-validate' on a file
generated by 'virsh nodedev-dumpxml pci_0000_00_00_0' (for example).
This was found/seen by running autotest on my host.
This resolves one of the issues in:

This device is identical to qemu's "intel-hda" device (known as "ich6"
in libvirt), but has a different PCI device ID (which matches the ID
of the hda audio built into the ich9 chipset, of course). It's not
supported in earlier versions of qemu, so it requires a capability
bit.
The xml files are generated in build directory and thus docs/newapi.xsl
was not able to find them in a VPATH build.
