Pass stub driver name directly to pciDettachDevice and pciReAttachDevice to fit
for different libvirt drivers. For example, qemu driver prefers pci-stub, but
Xen prefers pciback.

Add an optional 'type' attribute to <target> element of serial port
device. There are two choices for its value, 'isa-serial' and
'usb-serial'. For backward compatibility, when attribute 'type' is
missing the 'isa-serial' will be chosen as before.
Libvirt XML sample
<serial type='pty'>
<target type='usb-serial' port='0'/>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
</serial>

qemu ${other_vm_args} \
-chardev pty,id=charserial0 \
-device usb-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0,bus=usb.0,port=1

With current code, if user calls virDomainPMSuspendForDuration()
followed by virDomainDestroy(), the former API checks for qemu agent
presence, which will evaluate as true (if agent is configured). While
talking to qemu agent, the qemu driver is unlocked, so the latter API
starts executing. However, if machine dies meanwhile, libvirtd gets
EOF on the agent socket and qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF() is called. The
handler clears reference to qemu agent while the destroy API already
holding a reference to it. This leads to NULL dereferencing later in
the code. Therefore, the agent pointer should be set to NULL only if
we are the exclusive owner of it.
While OOM can have knock-on effects that trash a system, generally
the first symptom is one of memory thrashing.
* src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c (qemuSetupCgroup): Reword slightly.
Perform all the appropriate plumbing.
When qemu/KVM VMs are paused manually through a monitor not-owned by libvirt,
libvirt will think of them as "paused" event after they are resumed and
effectively running. With this patch the discrepancy goes away.
This is meant to address bug 892791.

Currently, if there's no hard memory limit defined for a domain,
libvirt tries to calculate one, based on domain definition and magic
equation and set it upon the domain startup. The rationale behind was,
if there's a memory leak or exploit in qemu, we should prevent the
host system trashing. However, the equation was too tightening, as it
didn't reflect what the kernel counts into the memory used by a
process. Since many hosts do have a swap, nobody hasn't noticed
anything, because if hard memory limit is reached, process can
continue allocating memory on a swap. However, if there is no swap on
the host, the process gets killed by OOM killer. In our case, the qemu
process it is.
To prevent this, we need to relax the hard RSS limit. Moreover, we
should reflect more precisely the kernel way of accounting the memory
for process. That is, even the kernel caches are counted within the
memory used by a process (within cgroups at least). Hence the magic
equation has to be changed:
limit = 1.5 * (domain memory + total video memory) + (32MB for cache
per each disk) + 200MB
This is the QEMU backend code for the SCLP console support.
It includes SCLP capability detection, QEMU command line generation
and a test case.

Since we daemonized QEMU for capabilities probing there is a long
time if QEMU fails to launch. This is because we're not passing in
any virDomainObjPtr instance and thus the monitor code can not
check to see if the PID is still alive.

The current code is initializing capabilities before setting
directory permissions. Thus the QEMU binaries being run may
not have the ability to create the UNIX monitor socket on
the first run of libvirtd.
This prevents domain starting and disk attaching if the shared disk's
setting conflicts with other active domain(s), E.g. A domain with
"sgio" set as "filtered", however, another active domain is using
it set as "unfiltered".
This introduces a hash table for qemu driver, to store the shared
disk's info as (@major:minor, @ref_count). @ref_count is the number
of domains which shares the disk.
Since we only care about if the disk support unprivileged SG_IO
commands, and the SG_IO commands only make sense for block disk,
this patch only manages (add/remove hash entry) the shared disk for
block disk.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: (Add member 'sharedDisks' of type
virHashTablePtr; Declare helpers
qemuGetSharedDiskKey, qemuAddSharedDisk
and qemuRemoveSharedDisk)
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c (Implement the 3 helpers)
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (Update 'sharedDisks' when domain

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (Update 'sharedDisks' when attaching

When the disk alignment check done while redefining an existing snapshot
failed, the qemu driver attempted to free the existing snapshot. As in
the cleanup path the definition of the snapshot wasn't assigned, the
cleanup code dereferenced a NULL pointer.
This patch changes the behavior on error paths while redefining snapshot
in two ways:
1) On failure, modifications done on the snapshot definition object are
rolled back.
2) The previous definition of the data isn't freed until it's certain it
won't be needed any more.
This change avoids the segfault and additionally the snapshot doesn't
vanish if redefinition fails for some reason.
This also changes the function signature to take a
virDomainChrSourceDefPtr instead of just a path, since it needs to
differentiate behavior based on source->type.
The functionality provided in virchrdev.c (previously virconsole.c) is
applicable to other types of character devices besides consoles, such
as channels. This patch is just code motion, renaming things such as
"console" or "pty", instead using more general terms such as
"character device" or "device path".
Since 4c993d8a we failed to set this important capability, which
allows starting a domain with QXL video card. We set DEVICE_QXL
capability bit instead, which is not necessary wrong. Anyway, if
qemu supports the new '-device qxl' it supports older '-vga qxl'
as well. The latter is used for the primary (the first) qxl video
card, the former for other video cards.
Commit b3f2b4ca5c left buf unallocated in
the case of QMP capability probing being used, leading to a segfault in
strlen in the cleanup path.
This patch opens the log and allocates the buffer if QMP probing was
used, so we can display the helpful error message.
Despite our great effort we still parsed qemu log output.
We wouldn't notice unless upcoming qemu 1.4 changed the
format of the logs slightly. Anyway, now we should gather
all interesting knobs like pty paths from monitor. Moreover,
since for historical reasons the first console can be just
an alias to the first serial port, we need to check this and
copy the pty path if that's the case to the first console.
This reverts commit 28224c4d2a
which shouldn't be needed at all because with current qemu
we obtain all paths from 'query-chardev' output. We ought
not parse log output at all anymore.
Since 586502189edf9fd0f89a83de96717a2ea826fdb0 qemu commit, the log
lines reporting chardev's path has changed from:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -serial pty -serial pty -monitor pty
char device redirected to /dev/pts/5
char device redirected to /dev/pts/6
char device redirected to /dev/pts/7
to:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -serial pty -serial pty -monitor pty
char device compat_monitor0 redirected to /dev/pts/5
char device serial0 redirected to /dev/pts/6
char device serial1 redirected to /dev/pts/7
However, with current code we are not prepared for such change, which
results in us being unable to start any domain.
Many internal qemu APIs must find domain object from passed
virDomainPtr. And with function Peter's introduced, we can use it
instead of copying multiple lines among code.
Since we switched to QMP probing, the object types are spelled out
explicitly, i.e. virtio-net-pci. This has effectively disabled
the capability detection of s390 virtio devices. The trivial fix
is to add the s390 virtio types explicitly to qemuCapsObjectProps.

The code for doing a block-copy was supposed to track the destination
file in drive->mirror, but was set up to do all mallocs prior to
starting the copy so that OOM wouldn't leave things partially started.
However, the wrong variable was being written; later in the code we
silently did 'disk->mirror = mirror' which was still NULL, and thus
leaking memory and leaving libvirt to think that the mirror job was
never started, which prevented a pivot operation after a copy.
Problem introduced in commit 35c7701c6.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockCopy): Initialize correct
variable.
