This patch introduces a new PCI hostdev address type called
'unassigned'. This new type gives users the option to add
PCI hostdevs to the domain XML in an 'unassigned' state, meaning
that the device exists in the domain, is managed by Libvirt
like any regular PCI hostdev, but the guest does not have
access to it.
This adds extra options for managing PCI device binding
inside Libvirt, for example, making all the managed PCI hostdevs
declared in the domain XML to be detached from the host and bind
to the chosen driver and, at the same time, allowing just a
subset of these devices to be usable by the guest.
Next patch will use this new address type in the QEMU driver to
avoid adding unassigned devices to the QEMU launch command line.

There is this class of PCI devices that act like disks: NVMe.
Therefore, they are both PCI devices and disks. While we already
have <hostdev/> (and can assign a NVMe device to a domain
successfully) we don't have disk representation. There are three
problems with PCI assignment in case of a NVMe device:
1) domains with <hostdev/> can't be migrated
2) NVMe device is assigned whole, there's no way to assign only a
namespace
3) Because hypervisors see <hostdev/> they don't put block layer
on top of it - users don't get all the fancy features like
snapshots
NVMe namespaces are way of splitting one continuous NVDIMM memory
into smaller ones, effectively creating smaller NVMe-s (which can
then be partitioned, LVMed, etc.)
Because of all of this the following XML was chosen to model a
NVMe device:
<disk type='nvme' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source type='pci' managed='yes' namespace='1'>
<address domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>

When QEMU uid/gid is set to non-root this is pointless as if we just
used a regular setuid/setgid call, the process will have all its
capabilities cleared anyway by the kernel.
When QEMU uid/gid is set to root, this is almost (always?) never
what people actually want. People make QEMU run as root in order
to access some privileged resource that libvirt doesn't support
yet and this often requires capabilities. As a result they have
to go find the qemu.conf param to turn this off. This is not
viable for libguestfs - they want to control everything via the
XML security label to request running as root regardless of the
qemu.conf settings for user/group.
Clearing capabilities was implemented originally because there
was a proposal in Fedora to change permissions such that root,
with no capabilities would not be able to compromise the system.
ie a locked down root account. This never went anywhere though,
and as a result clearing capabilities when running as root does
not really get us any security benefit AFAICT. The root user
can easily do something like create a cronjob, which will then
faithfully be run with full capabilities, trivially bypassing
the restriction we place.
IOW, our clearing of capabilities is both useless from a security
POV, and breaks valid use cases when people need to run as root.
This removes the clear_emulator_capabilities configuration
option from qemu.conf, and always runs QEMU with capabilities
when root. The behaviour when non-root is unchanged.

Prepare for new backup APIs by describing the XML that will represent
a backup. The XML resembles snapshots and checkpoints in being able
to select actions for a set of disks, but has other differences. It
can support both push model (the hypervisor does the backup directly
into the destination file) and pull model (the hypervisor exposes an
access port for a third party to grab what is necessary). Add
testsuite coverage for some minimal uses of the XML.
The <disk> element within <domainbackup> tries to model the same
elements as a <disk> under <domain>, but sharing the RNG grammar
proved to be hairy. That is in part because while <domain> use
<source> to describe a host resource in use by the guest, a backup job
is using a host resource that is not visible to the guest: a push
backup action is instead describing a <target> (which ultimately could
be a remote network resource, but for simplicity the RNG just
validates a local file for now), and a pull backup action is instead
describing a temporary local file <scratch> (which probably should not
be a remote resource). A future refactoring may thus introduce some
way to parameterize RNG to accept <disk type='FOO'>...</disk> so that
the name of the subelement can be <source> for domain, or <target> or
<scratch> as needed for backups. Future patches may improve this area
of code.

When parsing the guest XML we must fill in the default guest arch if it
is not already present because later parts of the parsing process need
this information.
If no arch is specified we lookup the first guest in the capabilities
data matching the os type and virt type. In most cases this will result
in picking the host architecture but there are some exceptions...
- The test driver is hardcoded to always use i686 arch
- The VMWare/ESX drivers will always place i686 guests ahead
of x86_64 guests in capabilities, so effectively they always
use i686
- The QEMU driver can potentially return any arch at all
depending on what combination of QEMU binaries are installed.
The domain XML hardware configurations are inherently architecture
specific in many places. As a result whomever/whatever created the
domain XML will have had a particular architecture in mind when
specifying the config. In pretty much any sensible case this arch
will have been the native host architecture. i686 on x86_64 is
the only sensible divergance because both these archs are
compatible from a domaain XML config POV.
IOW, although the QEMU driver can pick an almost arbitrary arch as its
default, in the real world no application or user is likely to be
relying on this default arch being anything other than native.
With all this in mind, it is reasonable to change the XML parser to
allow the default architecture to be passed via the domain XML options
struct. If no info is explicitly given then it is safe & sane to pick
the host native architecture as the default for the guest.

To avoid this probem all regexes should use the r"...." syntax for their
strings, which disables normal string escape sequences.

not support this. Explicitly force separate build dir in autotools to

The log filters have supported the use of a "+" before the source match
string to request that a stack trace be emitted for every log message:
commit 548563956e
Author: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
Date: Wed May 9 15:18:56 2012 +0100
Allow stack traces to be included with log messages
Sometimes it is useful to see the callpath for log messages.
This change enhances the log filter syntax so that stack traces
can be show by setting '1:+NAME' instead of '1:NAME'.
With the huge & ever increasing number of logging statements per file,
this will be incredibly verbose and have a major performance penalty.
This makes the feature impractical to use widely and as such it is not
worth the code maint cost.
Removing this seldom used feature allows us to drop the 'execinfo'
module in gnulib which provides the backtrace() function which doesn't
exist on non-Linux.
Users who want to get stack traces of parts of libvirt can use GDB,
or systemtap for live tracing with minimal perf impact.
