If the qemu binary on x86 does not support lsi SCSI controller,
but it supports virtio-scsi, we reject the virtio-specific attributes
for no reason.
Move the default controller assignment before the check.

Soo. you've successfully started yourself a domain. And since you want
to use it on your host exclusively you are confident enough to
passthrough the host CPU model, like this:
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'/>
Then, after a while, you want to save the domain into a file (e.g.
virsh save dom dom.save). And here comes the trouble. The file consist
of two parts: Libvirt header (containing domain XML among other
things), and qemu migration data. Now, the domain XML in the header is
formatted using special flags (VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE |
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU | VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE |
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE).
Then, on your way back from the bar, you think of changing something
in the XML in the saved file (we have a command for it after all), say
listen address for graphics console. So you successfully type in the
command:
virsh save-image-edit dom.save
Change all the bits, and exit the editor. But instead of success
you're left with sad error message:
error: unsupported configuration: Target CPU model <null> does not
match source Pentium Pro
Sigh. Digging into the code you see lines, where we check for ABI
stability. The new XML you've produced is compared with the old one
from the saved file to see if qemu ABI will break or not. Wait, what?
We are using different flags to parse the XML you've provided so we
were just lucky it worked in some cases? Yep, that's right.

Well, not that we are not formatting invalid XML, rather than not as
beautiful as we can:
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'>
</cpu>
If there are no children, let's use the singleton element.

Well, so far there are no variables to free, no cleanup work needed on
an error, so bare 'return -1;' after each error is just okay. But this

This API joins the following two lines:
char *s = virBufferContentAndReset(buf1);
virBufferAdd(buf2, s, -1);
into one:
virBufferAddBuffer(buf2, buf1);
With one exception: there's no re-indentation applied to @buf1.
The idea is, that in general both can have different indentation
(like the test I'm adding proves)

While the restriction doesn't have origin in any RFC, it matters
to us while constructing the dnsmasq config file (or command line
previously). For better picture, this is how the corresponding
part of network XML look like:
<dns>
<forwarder addr='8.8.4.4'/>
<txt name='example' value='example value'/>
</dns>
And this is how the config file looks like then:
server=8.8.4.4
txt-record=example,example value
Now we can see why there can't be any commas in the TXT name.
They are used by dnsmasq to separate @name and @value.
Funny, we have it in the documentation, but the code (which was
pushed back in 2011) didn't reflect that.

Well, imagine domains were running, and as the host went down, they
were managesaved. Later, after some time, the host went up again and
domains got restored. But without correct time. And depending on how
long was the host shut off, it may take some time for ntp to sync the
time too. But hey, wait a minute. We have an API just for that! So:
1) Introduce SYNC_TIME variable in libvirt-guests.sysconf to allow
users control over the new functionality
2) Call 'virsh domtime --sync $dom' in the libvirt-guests script.
Unfortunately, this is all-or-nothing approach (just like anything
else with the script). Domains are required to have configured and
running qemu-ga inside.

At least Xen supports backend drivers in another domain (aka "driver
domain"). This patch introduces an XML config option for specifying the
backend domain name for <disk> and <interface> devices. E.g.
<disk>
<backenddomain name='diskvm'/>
...
</disk>
<interface type='bridge'>
<backenddomain name='netvm'/>
...
</interface>
In the future, same option will be needed for USB devices (hostdev
objects), but for now libxl doesn't have support for PVUSB.

The function that parses the <forward> subelement of a network used to
fail/log an error if the network definition contained both a <pf>
element as well as at least one <interface> or <address> element. That
check was present because the configuration of a network should have
either one <pf>, one or more <interface>, or one or more <address>,
but never combinations of multiple kinds.
This caused a problem when libvirtd was restarted with a network
already active - when a network with a <pf> element is started, the
referenced PF (Physical Function of an SRIOV-capable network card) is
checked for VFs (Virtual Functions), and the <forward> is filled in
with a list of all VFs for that PF either in the form of their PCI
addresses (a list of <address>) or their netdev names (a list of
<interface>); the <pf> element is not removed though. When libvirtd is
restarted, it parses the network status and finds both the original
<pf> from the config, as well as the list of either <address> or
<interface>, fails the parse, and the network is not added to the
active list. This failure is often obscured because the network is
marked as autostart so libvirt immediately restarts it.
It seems odd to me that <interface> and <address> are stored in the
same array rather than keeping two separate arrays, and having
separate arrays would have made the check much simpler. However,
changing to use two separate arrays would have required changes in
more places, potentially creating more conflicts and (more
importantly) more possible regressions in the event of a backport, so
I chose to keep the existing data structure in order to localize the
change.
It appears that this problem has been in the code ever since support
for <pf> was added (0.9.10), but until commit
34cc3b2f10 (first in libvirt 1.2.4)
networks with interface pools were not properly marked as active on
restart anyway, so there is no point in backporting this patch any
further than that.
Later patches will need to access the full definition to do check the
memory size and thus the checking needs to be done after the whole
definition including devices is known.
For historical reasons data regarding NUMA configuration were split
between the CPU definition and numatune. We cannot do anything about the
XML still being split, but we certainly can at least store the relevant
data in one place.
This patch moves the NUMA stuff to the right place.
As virDomainNumatuneSet now doesn't allocate the virDomainNuma object
any longer it's not necessary to pass the pointer to a pointer to store
the object as it will not change any longer.
While touching the parameter definitions I've also changed the name of
the parameter to "numa".
Since our formatter now handles well if the config is allocated and not
filled we can safely always-allocate the NUMA config and remove the
ad-hoc allocation code.
This will help in later patches as the parser will be refactored to just
fill the data.
Move the existing virDomainDefNew to virDomainDefNewFull as it's setting
a few things in the conf and re-introduce virDomainDefNew as a function
without parameters for common use.
Do a content-aware check if formatting of the <numatune> element is
necessary. Later on the def->numa structure will be always present so we
cannot decide only on the basis whether it's allocated.
Shuffling around the logic will allow to simplify the code quite a bit.
As an additional bonus the change in the logic now reports an error if
automatic placement is selected and individual placement is configured.
Currently the code would exit without reporting an error as
virBitmapParse reports one only if it fails to parse the bitmap, whereas
the code was jumping to the error label even in case 0 cpus were
correctly parsed in the map.
It's easier to recalculate the number in the one place it's used as
having a separate variable to track it. It will also help with moving
the NUMA code to the separate module.
Name it virNumaMemAccess and add it to conf/numa_conf.[ch]
Note that to avoid a circular dependency the type of the NUMA cell
memAccess variable was changed to int. It will be turned back later
after the circular dependency will not exist.
The mask was stored both as a bitmap and as a string. The string is used
for XML output only. Remove the string, as it can be reconstructed from
the bitmap.
The test change is necessary as the bitmap formatter doesn't "optimize"
using the '^' operator.
Rewrite the function to save a few local variables and reorder the code
to make more sense.
Additionally the ncells_max member of the virCPUDef structure is used
only for tracking allocation when parsing the numa definition, which can
be avoided by switching to VIR_ALLOC_N as the array is not resized
after initial allocation.
For weird historical reasons NUMA cells are added as a subelement of
<cpu> while the actual configuration is done in <numatune>.
This patch splits out the cell parser code from cpu config to NUMA
config. Note that the changes to the code are minimal just to make it
work and the function will be refactored in the next patch.
For a while now there are two places that gather information about NUMA
related guest configuration. While the XML can't be changed we can at
least store the data in one place in the definition.
Rename the numatune_conf.[ch] files to numa_conf as later patches will
move the rest of the definitions from the cpu definition to this one.
The "virDomainGetInfo" will get for running domain only live info and for
offline domain only config info. There was no way how to get config info
for running domain. We will use "vshCPUCountCollect" instead to get the
correct cpu count that we need to pass to "virDomainGetVcpuPinInfo".
Also cleanup some unnecessary variables and checks that are done by
drivers.

Not all machine types support all devices, device properties, backends,
etc. So until we create a matrix of [machineType, qemuCaps], lets just
filter out some capabilities before we return them to the consumer
(which is going to make decisions based on them straight away).
Currently, as qemu is unable to tell which capabilities are (not)
enabled for given machine types, it's us who has to hardcode the matrix.
One day maybe the hardcoding will go away and we can create the matrix
dynamically on the fly based on a few monitor calls.
