Guest CPU definitions with mode='custom' and missing <vendor> are
expected to run on a host CPU from any vendor as long as the required
CPU model can be used as a guest CPU on the host. But even though no CPU
vendor was explicitly requested we would sometimes force it due to a bug
in virCPUUpdate and virCPUTranslate.
The bug would effectively forbid cross vendor migrations even if they
were previously working just fine.

The API is no longer used anywhere else since it was replaced by a much
saner work flow utilizing new APIs that work on virCPUDefPtr directly:
virCPUCompare, virCPUUpdate, and virCPUTranslate.
Not testing the new work flow caused some bugs to be hidden. This patch
reveals them, but doesn't attempt to fix them. To make sure all test
still pass after this patch, all affected test results are modified to
pretend the tests succeeded. All of the bugs will be fixed in the
following commits and the artificial modifications will be reverted.
The following is the list of bugs in the new CPU model work flow:
- a guest CPU with mode='custom' and missing <vendor/> gets the vendor
copied from host's CPU (the vendor should only be copied to host-model
CPUs):
DO_TEST_UPDATE("x86", "host", "min", VIR_CPU_COMPARE_IDENTICAL)
DO_TEST_UPDATE("x86", "host", "pentium3", VIR_CPU_COMPARE_IDENTICAL)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host-better", "pentium3", NULL, 0)
- when a guest CPU with mode='custom' needs to be translated into
another model because the original model is not supported by a
hypervisor, the result will have its vendor set to the vendor of the
original CPU model as specified in cpu_map.xml even if the original
guest CPU XML didn't contain <vendor/>:
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host", "guest", model486, 0)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host", "guest", models, 0)
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("x86", "host-Haswell-noTSX", "Haswell-noTSX",
haswell, 0)
- legacy POWERx_v* model names are not recognized:
DO_TEST_GUESTCPU("ppc64", "host", "guest-legacy", ppc_models, 0)

For machinetypes with a pci-root bus (all legacy PCI), libvirt will
make a "fake" reservation for one extra slot prior to assigning
addresses to unaddressed PCI endpoint devices in the domain. This will
trigger auto-adding of a pci-bridge for the final device to be
assigned an address *if that device would have otherwise instead been
the last device on the last available pci-bridge*; thus it assures
that there will always be at least one slot left open in the domain's
bus topology for expansion (which is important both for hotplug (since
a new pci-bridge can't be added while the guest is running) as well as
for offline additions to the config (since adding a new device might
otherwise in some cases require re-addressing existing devices, which
we want to avoid)).
It's important to note that for the above case (legacy PCI), we must
check for the special case of all slots on all buses being occupied
*prior to assigning any addresses*, and avoid attempting to reserve
the extra address in that case, because there is no free address in
the existing topology, so no place to auto-add a pci-bridge for
expansion (i.e. it would always fail anyway). Since that condition can
only be reached by manual intervention, this is acceptable.
For machinetypes with pcie-root (Q35, aarch64 virt), libvirt's
methodology for automatically expanding the bus topology is different
- pcie-root-ports are plugged into slots (soon to be functions) of
pcie-root as needed, and the new endpoint devices are assigned to the
single slot in each pcie-root-port. This is done so that the devices
are, by default, hotpluggable (the slots of pcie-root don't support
hotplug, but the single slot of the pcie-root-port does). Since
pcie-root-ports can only be plugged into pcie-root, and we don't
auto-assign endpoint devices to the pcie-root slots, this means
topology expansion doesn't compete with endpoint devices for slots, so
we don't need to worry about checking for all "useful" slots being
free *prior* to assigning addresses to new endpoint devices - as a
matter of fact, if we attempt to reserve the open slots before the
used slots, it can lead to errors.
Instead this patch just reserves one slot for a "future potential"
PCIe device after doing the assignment for actual devices, but only
if the only PCI controller defined prior to starting address
assignment was pcie-root, and only if we auto-added at least one PCI
controller during address assignment. This assures two things:
1) that reserving the open slots will only be done when the domain is
initially defined, never at any time after, and
2) that if the user understands enough about PCI controllers that they
are adding them manually, that we don't mess up their plan by
adding extras - if they know enough to add one pcie-root-port, or
to manually assign addresses such that no pcie-root-ports are
needed, they know enough to add extra pcie-root-ports if they want
them (this could be called the "libguestfs clause", since
libguestfs needs to be able to create domains with as few
devices/controllers as possible).
This is set to reserve a single free port for now, but could be
increased in the future if public sentiment goes in that direction
(it's easy to increase later, but essentially impossible to decrease)
Real Q35 hardware has an ICH9 chip that includes several integrated
devices at particular addresses (see the file docs/q35-chipset.cfg in
the qemu source). libvirt already attempts to put the first two sets
of ich9 USB2 controllers it finds at 00:1D.* and 00:1A.* to match the
real hardware. This patch does the same for the ich9 "HD audio"
device.
The main inspiration for this patch is that currently the *only*
device in a reasonable "workstation" type virtual machine config that
requires a legacy PCI slot is the audio device, Without this patch,
the standard Q35 machine created by virt-manager will have a
dmi-to-pci-bridge and a pci-bridge just for the sound device; with the
patch (and if you change the sound device model from the default
"ich6" to "ich9"), the machine definition constructed by virt-manager
has absolutely no legacy PCI controllers - any legacy PCI devices
(e.g. video and sound) are on pcie-root as integrated devices.
Previously we added a set of EHCI+UHCI controllers to Q35 machines to
mimic real hardware as closely as possible, but recent discussions
have pointed out that the nec-usb-xhci (USB3) controller is much more
virtualization-friendly (uses less CPU), so this patch switches the
default for Q35 machinetypes to add an XHCI instead (if it's
supported, which it of course *will* be).
Since none of the existing test cases left out USB controllers in the
input XML, a new Q35 test case was added which has *no* devices, so
ends up with only the defaults always put in by qemu, plus those added
by libvirt.
Now the a dmi-to-pci-bridge is automatically added just as it's needed
(when a pci-bridge is being added), we no longer have any need to
force-add one to every single Q35 domain.
A few of the qemu test cases assume that a dmi-to-pci-bridge will
always be added at index 1, and so they omit it from the input data
even though a pci-bridge is present at index 2, e.g.:
<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pcie-root'/>
<controller type='pci' index='2' model='pci-bridge'/>
Support for this odd practice was discussed on libvir-list and we
decided that the complex code required to make this continue was not
worth the headache of maintaining. So instead, this patch modifies the
test cases to manually add a dmi-to-pci-bridge at index 1 (since an
upcoming patch is going to eliminate the unconditional adding of
dmi-to-pci-bridge).
Because the auto-add was placing the dmi-to-pci-bridge later in the
list (even though it has a lower index) the test output is also
updated to take account for the new order (which puts the pci
controllers in index-order)
Previously libvirt would only add pci-bridge devices automatically
when an address was requested for a device that required a legacy PCI
slot and none was available. This patch expands that support to
dmi-to-pci-bridge (which is needed in order to add a pci-bridge on a
machine with a pcie-root), and pcie-root-port (which is needed to add
a hotpluggable PCIe device). It does *not* automatically add
pcie-switch-upstream-ports or pcie-switch-downstream-ports (and
currently there are no plans for that).
Given the existing code to auto-add pci-bridge devices, automatically
adding pcie-root-ports is fairly straightforward. The
dmi-to-pci-bridge support is a bit tricky though, for a few reasons:
1) Although the only reason to add a dmi-to-pci-bridge is so that
there is a reasonable place to plug in a pci-bridge controller,
most of the time it's not the presence of a pci-bridge *in the
config* that triggers the requirement to add a dmi-to-pci-bridge.
Rather, it is the presence of a legacy-PCI device in the config,
which triggers auto-add of a pci-bridge, which triggers auto-add of
a dmi-to-pci-bridge (this is handled in
virDomainPCIAddressSetGrow() - if there's a request to add a
pci-bridge we'll check if there is a suitable bus to plug it into;
if not, we first add a dmi-to-pci-bridge).
2) Once there is already a single dmi-to-pci-bridge on the system,
there won't be a need for any more, even if it's full, as long as
there is a pci-bridge with an open slot - you can also plug
pci-bridges into existing pci-bridges. So we have to make sure we
don't add a dmi-to-pci-bridge unless there aren't any
dmi-to-pci-bridges *or* any pci-bridges.
3) Although it is strongly discouraged, it is legal for a pci-bridge
to be directly plugged into pcie-root, and we don't want to
auto-add a dmi-to-pci-bridge if there is already a pci-bridge
that's been forced directly into pcie-root.
Although libvirt will now automatically create a dmi-to-pci-bridge
when it's needed, the code still remains for now that forces a
dmi-to-pci-bridge on all domains with pcie-root (in
qemuDomainDefAddDefaultDevices()). That will be removed in a future
patch.
For now, the pcie-root-ports are added one to a slot, which is a bit
wasteful and means it will fail after 31 total PCIe devices (30 if
there are also some PCI devices), but helps keep the changeset down
for this patch. A future patch will have 8 pcie-root-ports sharing the
functions on a single slot.
The nec-usb-xhci device (which is a USB3 controller) has always
presented itself as a PCI device when plugged into a legacy PCI slot,
and a PCIe device when plugged into a PCIe slot, but libvirt has
always auto-assigned it to a legacy PCI slot.
This patch changes that behavior to auto-assign to a PCIe slot on
systems that have pcie-root (e.g. Q35 and aarch64/virt).
Since we don't yet auto-create pcie-*-port controllers on demand, this
means a config with an nec-xhci USB controller that has no PCI address
assigned will also need to have an otherwise-unused pcie-*-port
controller specified:
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='usb' model='nec-xhci'/>
(this assumes there is an otherwise-unused slot on pcie-root to accept
the pcie-root-port)
The e1000e is an emulated network device based on the Intel 82574,
present in qemu 2.7.0 and later. Among other differences from the
e1000, it presents itself as a PCIe device rather than legacy PCI. In
order to get it assigned to a PCIe controller, this patch updates the
flags setting for network devices when the model name is "e1000e".
(Note that for some reason libvirt has never validated the network
device model names other than to check that there are no dangerous
characters in them. That should probably change, but is the subject of
another patch.)

libvirt previously assigned nearly all devices to a "hotpluggable"
legacy PCI slot even on machines with a PCIe root bus (and even though
most such machines don't even support hotplug on legacy PCI slots!)
Forcing all devices onto legacy PCI slots means that the domain will
need a dmi-to-pci-bridge (to convert from PCIe to legacy PCI) and a
pci-bridge (to provide hotpluggable legacy PCI slots which, again,
usually aren't hotpluggable anyway).
To help reduce the need for these legacy controllers, this patch tries
to assign virtio-1.0-capable devices to PCIe slots whenever possible,
by setting appropriate connectFlags in
virDomainCalculateDevicePCIConnectFlags(). Happily, when that function
was written (just a few commits ago) it was created with a
"virtioFlags" argument, set by both of its callers, which is the
proper connectFlags to set for any virtio-*-pci device - depending on
the arch/machinetype of the domain, and whether or not the qemu binary
supports virtio-1.0, that flag will have either been set to PCI or
PCIe. This patch merely enables the functionality by setting the flags
for the device to whatever is in virtioFlags if the device is a
virtio-*-pci device.
NB: the first virtio video device will be placed directly on bus 0
slot 1 rather than on a pcie-root-port due to the override for primary
video devices in qemuDomainValidateDevicePCISlotsQ35(). Whether or not
to change that is a topic of discussion, but this patch doesn't change
that particular behavior.
NB2: since the slot must be hotpluggable, and pcie-root (the PCIe root
complex) does *not* support hotplug, this means that suitable
controllers must also be in the config (i.e. either pcie-root-port, or
pcie-downstream-port). For now, libvirt doesn't add those
automatically, so if you put virtio devices in a config for a qemu
that has PCIe-capable virtio devices, you'll need to add extra
pcie-root-ports yourself. That requirement will be eliminated in a
future patch, but for now, it's simple to do this:
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>

The memory device alias needs to be treated as machine ABI as qemu is

As with other devices assign the slot number right away when adding the
device. This will make the slot numbers static as we do with other
addressing elements and it will ultimately simplify allocation of the
alias in a static way which does not break with qemu.
Simplify handling of the 'dimm' address element by allowing to specify
the slot number only. This will allow libvirt to allocate slot numbers
before starting qemu.
Even though using /dev/shm/asdf as the backend, we still need to make
the mapping shared. The original patch forgot to add that parameter.

Allow detecting capabilities according to the qemu QMP schema. This is
necessary as sometimes the availability of certain options depends on
the presence of a field in the schema.
This patch adds support for loading the QMP schema when detecting qemu
capabilities and adds a very simple query language to allow traversing
the schema and selecting a certain element from it.
The infrastructure in this patch uses a query path to set a specific
capability flag according to the availability of the given element in
the schema.
Remove the command from the supported commands list temporarily so that
QMP introspection code can be added without breaking tests and having to
tweak the test data in the same commit.
This will be later reverted and test data will be added. The aarch64
code is special as it calls additional commands and thus the test data
can't be added upfront.
