This offers a number of advantages:
* Allows sharing a home directory between different machines, or
sessions (eg. using NFS)
* Cleanly separates cache, runtime (eg. sockets), or app data from
user settings
* Supports performing smart or selective migration of settings
between different OS versions
* Supports reseting settings without breaking things
* Makes it possible to clear cache data to make room when the disk
is filling up
* Allows us to write a robust and efficient backup solution
* Allows an admin flexibility to change where data and settings are stored
* Dramatically reduces the complexity and incoherence of the
system for administrators
Though numad will manage the memory allocation of task dynamically,
it wants management application (libvirt) to pre-set the memory
policy according to the advisory nodeset returned from querying numad,
(just like pre-bind CPU nodeset for domain process), and thus the
performance could benefit much more from it.
This patch introduces new XML tag 'placement', value 'auto' indicates
whether to set the memory policy with the advisory nodeset from numad,
and its value defaults to the value of <vcpu> placement, or 'static'
if 'nodeset' is specified. Example of the new XML tag's usage:
<numatune>
<memory placement='auto' mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
Just like what current "numatune" does, the 'auto' numa memory policy
setting uses libnuma's API too.
If <vcpu> "placement" is "auto", and <numatune> is not specified
explicitly, a default <numatume> will be added with "placement"
set as "auto", and "mode" set as "strict".
The following XML can now fully drive numad:
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no <numatune> is specified.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no 'placement' is specified for
<numatune>.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
And it's also able to control the CPU placement and memory policy
independently. e.g.
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', and <numatune> placement is 'static'
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='strict' nodeset='0-10,^7'/>
</numatune>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'static', and <numatune> placement is 'auto'
<vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-24,^12'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave' placement='auto'/>
</numatume>
A follow up patch will change the XML formatting codes to always output
'placement' for <vcpu>, even it's 'static'.
This value will be needed to set the src_pid when sending netlink
messages to lldpad. It is part of the solution to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816465
Note that libnl's port generation algorithm guarantees that the
nl_socket_get_local_port() will always be > 0 (since it is "getpid() +
(n << 22>" where n is always < 1024), so it is okay to cast the
uint32_t to int (thus allowing us to use -1 as an error sentinel).

When libvirtd is started, we create "libvirt/qemu" directories under
hugetlbfs mount point. Only the "qemu" subdirectory is chowned to qemu
user and "libvirt" remains owned by root. If umask was too restrictive
when libvirtd started, qemu user may lose access to "qemu"
subdirectory. Let's explicitly grant search permissions to "libvirt"
directory for all users.
Add 2 new functions to the virSocketAddr 'class':
- virSocketAddrEqual: tests whether two IP addresses and their ports are equal
- virSocketaddSetIPv4Addr: set a virSocketAddr given a 32 bit int
DBus connection. The HAL device code further requires that
the DBus connection is integrated with the event loop and
provides such glue logic itself.
The forthcoming FirewallD integration also requires a
dbus connection with event loop integration. Thus we need
to pull the current event loop glue out of the HAL driver.
Thus we create src/util/virdbus.{c,h} files. This contains
just one method virDBusGetSystemBus() which obtains a handle
to the single shared system bus instance, with event glue
automagically setup.

Since Xen 3.1 the clock=variable semantic is supported. In addition to
qemu/kvm Xen also knows about a variant where the offset is relative to
'localtime' instead of 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'basis' to specify, if the
offset is relative to 'localtime' or 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'reset' to force the reset
behaviour of 'localtime' and 'utc'; this is needed for backward
compatibility with previous versions of libvirt, since they report
incorrect XML.
Adapt the only user 'qemu' to the new name.

A few times libvirt users manually setting mac addresses have
complained of a networking failure that ends up being due to a multicast
mac address being used for a guest interface. This patch prevents that
by logging an error and failing if a multicast mac address is
encountered in each of the three following cases:
1) domain xml <interface> mac address.
2) network xml bridge mac address.
3) network xml dhcp/host mac address.
There are several other places where a mac address can be input that
aren't controlled in this manner because failure to do so has no
consequences (e.g., if the address will be used to search through
existing interfaces for a match).
The RNG has been updated to add multiMacAddr and uniMacAddr along with
the existing macAddr, and macAddr was switched to uniMacAddr where
appropriate.
numad is an user-level daemon that monitors NUMA topology and
processes resource consumption to facilitate good NUMA resource
alignment of applications/virtual machines to improve performance
and minimize cost of remote memory latencies. It provides a
pre-placement advisory interface, so significant processes can
be pre-bound to nodes with sufficient available resources.
More details: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/numad
"numad -w ncpus:memory_amount" is the advisory interface numad
provides currently.
This patch add the support by introducing a new XML attribute
for <vcpu>. e.g.
<vcpu placement="auto">4</vcpu>
<vcpu placement="static" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>
The returned advisory nodeset from numad will be printed
in domain's dumped XML. e.g.
<vcpu placement="auto" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>
If placement is "auto", the number of vcpus and the current
memory amount specified in domain XML will be used for numad
command line (numad uses MB for memory amount):
numad -w $num_of_vcpus:$current_memory_amount / 1024
The advisory nodeset returned from numad will be used to set
domain process CPU affinity then. (e.g. qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity).
If the user specifies both CPU affinity policy (e.g.
(<vcpu cpuset="1-10,^7,^8">4</vcpu>) and placement == "auto"
the specified CPU affinity will be overridden.
Only QEMU/KVM drivers support it now.
See docs update in patch for more details.
As documented in linux.git/Documentation/cgroups/cpuacct.txt,
cpuacct.stat returns user and system time in ticks (the same
unit used in times(2)). It would be a bit nicer if it were like
getrusage(2) and reported timeval contents, or like cpuacct.usage
and in nanoseconds, but we can't be picky.
* src/util/cgroup.h (virCgroupGetCpuacctStat): New function.
* src/util/cgroup.c (virCgroupGetCpuacctStat): Implement it.
(virCgroupGetValueStr): Allow for multi-line files.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (cgroup.h): Export it.
Some members are generated during XML parse (e.g. MAC address of
an interface); However, with current implementation, if we
are plugging a device both to persistent and live config,
we parse given XML twice: first time for live, second for config.
This is wrong then as the second time we are not guaranteed
to generate same values as we did for the first time.
To prevent that we need to create a copy of DeviceDefPtr;
This is done through format/parse process instead of writing
functions for deep copy as it is easier to maintain:
adding new field to any virDomain*DefPtr doesn't require change
of copying function.
Scaling an integer based on a suffix is something we plan on reusing
in several contexts: XML parsing, virsh CLI parsing, and possibly
elsewhere. Make it easy to reuse, as well as adding in support for
powers of 1000.
* src/util/util.h (virScaleInteger): New function.
* src/util/util.c (virScaleInteger): Implement it.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (util.h): Export it.
* For now, only "cpu_time" is supported.

These changes are applied only if the hostdev has a parent net device
(i.e. if it was defined as "<interface type='hostdev'>" rather than
just "<hostdev>"). If the parent netdevice has virtual port
information, the original virtualport associate functions are called
(these set and restore both mac and port profile on an
interface). Otherwise, only mac address is set on the device.
Note that This is only supported for SR-IOV Virtual Functions (not for
standard PCI or USB netdevs), and virtualport association is only
supported for 802.1Qbh. For all other types of cards and types of
virtualport, a "Config Unsupported" error is returned and the
operation fails.

This is the new interface type that sets up an SR-IOV PCI network
device to be assigned to the guest with PCI passthrough after
initializing some network device-specific things from the config
(e.g. MAC address, virtualport profile parameters). Here is an example
of the syntax:
<interface type='hostdev' managed='yes'>
<source>
<address type='pci' domain='0' bus='0' slot='4' function='3'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0' bus='0' slot='7' function='0'/>
</interface>
This would assign the PCI card from bus 0 slot 4 function 3 on the
host, to bus 0 slot 7 function 0 on the guest, but would first set the
MAC address of the card to 00:11:22:33:44:55.
NB: The parser and formatter don't care if the PCI card being
specified is a standard single function network adapter, or a virtual
function (VF) of an SR-IOV capable network adapter, but the upcoming
code that implements the back end of this config will work *only* with
SR-IOV VFs. This is because modifying the mac address of a standard
network adapter prior to assigning it to a guest is pointless - part
of the device reset that occurs during that process will reset the MAC
address to the value programmed into the card's firmware.
Although it's not supported by any of libvirt's hypervisor drivers,
usb network hostdevs are also supported in the parser and formatter
for completeness and consistency. <source> syntax is identical to that
for plain <hostdev> devices, except that the <address> element should
have "type='usb'" added if bus/device are specified:
<interface type='hostdev'>
<source>
<address type='usb' bus='0' device='4'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
</interface>
If the vendor/product form of usb specification is used, type='usb'
is implied:
<interface type='hostdev'>
<source>
<vendor id='0x0012'/>
<product id='0x24dd'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
</interface>
Again, the upcoming patch to fill in the backend of this functionality
will log an error and fail with "Unsupported Config" if you actually
try to assign a USB network adapter to a guest using <interface
type='hostdev'> - just use a standard <hostdev> entry in that case
(and also for single-port PCI adapters).
Three new functions useful in other files:
virDomainHostdevInsert:
Add a new hostdev at the end of the array. This would more sensibly be
called virDomainHostdevAppend, but the existing functions for other
types of devices are called Insert.
virDomainHostdevRemove:
Eliminates one entry from the hostdevs array, but doesn't free it;
patterned after the code at the end of the two
qemuDomainDetachHostXXXDevice functions (and also other pre-existing
virDomainXXXRemove functions for other device types).
virDomainHostdevFind:
This function is patterned from the search loops at the top of
qemuDomainDetachHostPciDevice and qemuDomainDetachHostUsbDevice, and
will be used to re-factor those (and other detach-related) functions.
In order to allow for a virDomainHostdevDef that uses the
virDomainDeviceInfo of a "higher level" device (such as a
virDomainNetDef), this patch changes the virDomainDeviceInfo in the
HostdevDef into a virDomainDeviceInfoPtr. Rather than adding checks
all over the code to check for a null info, we just guarantee that it
is always valid. The new function virDomainHostdevDefAlloc() allocates
a virDomainDeviceInfo and plugs it in, and virDomainHostdevDefFree()
makes sure it is freed.
There were 4 places allocating virDomainHostdevDefs, all of them
parsers of one sort or another, and those have all had their
VIR_ALLOC(hostdev) changed to virDomainHostdevDefAlloc(). Other than
that, and the new functions, all the rest of the changes are just
mechanical removals of "&" or changing "." to "->".
This code adds a netlink event interface to libvirt.

This patch adds a set of functions used in creating console streams for
domains using PTYs and ensures mutually exclusive access to the PTYs.
If mutually exclusive access is not used, two clients may open the same
console, which results in corruption on both clients as both of them
race to read data from the PTY.
Two approaches are used to ensure this:
1) Internal data structure holding open PTYs.
This is used internally and enables the user to forcibly
terminate another console connection eg. when somebody leaves
the console open on another host.
2) UUCP style lock files:
This uses UUCP lock files according to the FHS
( http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARLOCKLOCKFILES )
to check if other programs (like minicom) are not using the pty
device of the console.
This feature is disabled by default and may be enabled using
configure parameter
--with-console-lock-files=/path/to/lock/file/directory
or --with-console-lock-files=auto (which tries to infer the
location from OS used (currently only linux).
On usual linux systems, normal users may not write to the
/var/lock directory containing the locks. This poses problems
while in session mode. If the current user has no access to the
lockfile directory, check for presence of the file is still
done, but no lock file is created. This does NOT result in an
error.
Function xmlParseURI does not remove square brackets around IPv6
address when parsing. One of the solutions is making wrappers around
functions working with xmlURI*. This assures that uri->server will be
always properly assigned and it doesn't have to be changed when used
on some new place in the code.
For this purpose, functions virParseURI and virSaveURI were
added. These function are wrappers around xmlParseURI and xmlSaveUri
respectively.
Also there is one new syntax check function to prohibit these functions
anywhere else.
File changes:
- src/util/viruri.h -- declaration
- src/util/viruri.c -- definition
- src/libvirt_private.syms -- symbol export
- src/Makefile.am -- added source and header files

This patch allows libvirt to add interfaces to already
existing Open vSwitch bridges. The following syntax in
domain XML file can be used:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'/>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
or if libvirt should auto-generate the interfaceid use
following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
It is also possible to pass an optional profileid. To do that
use following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<mac address='00:55:1a:65:a2:8d'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'
profileid='test-profile'/>
</virtualport>
</interface>
To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:
ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr
The auto-generated WWN comply with the new addressing schema of WWN:
<quote>
the first nibble is either hex 5 or 6 followed by a 3-byte vendor

</quote>
We choose hex 5 for the first nibble. And for the 3-bytes vendor ID,
we uses the OUI according to underlying hypervisor type, (invoking
virConnectGetType to get the virt type). e.g. If virConnectGetType
returns "QEMU", we use Qumranet's OUI (00:1A:4A), if returns
ESX|VMWARE, we use VMWARE's OUI (00:05:69). Currently it only
supports qemu|xen|libxl|xenapi|hyperv|esx|vmware drivers. The last
36 bits are auto-generated.
Rename the src/util/netlink files to src/util/virnetlink to
