It's just a combination of AddImplicitControllers, and AddConsoleCompat.
Every caller that wants ImplicitControllers also wants the ConsoleCompat
AFAICT, so lump them together. We also need it for future patches.
Introduce a helper to check supported device and domain config and move
the memory hotplug checks to it.
The advantage of this approach is that by default all new features are
considered unsupported by all hypervisors unless specifically changed
rather than the previous approach where every hypervisor would need to
declare that a given feature is unsupported.
To avoid having to forbid new features added to domain XML in post parse
callbacks for individual hypervisor drivers the feature flag mechanism
will allow to add a central check that will be disabled for the drivers
that will add support.
As a first example flag, the 'hasWideSCSIBus' is converted to the new
bitmap.
This change ensures to call driver specific post-parse code to modify
domain definition after parsing hypervisor config the same way we do
after parsing XML.

Tool such as libguestfs need the datacenter path to get access to disk
images. The ESX driver knows the correct datacenter path, but this
information cannot be accessed using libvirt API yet. Also, it cannot
be deduced from the connection URI in a robust way.
Expose the datacenter path in the domain XML as <vmware:datacenterpath>
node similar to the way the <qemu:commandline> node works. The new node
is ignored while parsing the domain XML. In contrast to <qemu:commandline>
it is output only.

When generating the default drive address for a SCSI <disk> device,
check the generated address to ensure it doesn't conflict with a SCSI
<hostdev> address. The <disk> address generation algorithm uses the
<target> "dev" name in order to determine which controller and unit
in order to place the device. Since a SCSI <hostdev> device doesn't
require a target device name, its placement on the guest SCSI address
"could" conflict. For instance, if a SCSI <hostdev> exists at
controller=0 unit=0 and an attempt to hotplug 'sda' into the guest
made, there would be a conflict if the <hostdev> is already using
/dev/sda.
Although defined the same way, fortunately there hadn't been any deviation.
Ensure any assignments to onCrash use VIR_DOMAIN_LIFECYCLE_CRASH_* defs and
not VIR_DOMAIN_LIFECYCLE_* defs
Add a XML element that will allow to specify maximum supportable memory
and the count of memory slots to use with memory hotplug.
To avoid possible confusion and misuse of the new element this patch
also explicitly forbids the use of the maxMemory setting in individual
drivers's post parse callbacks. This limitation will be lifted when the
support is implemented.
As there are two possible approaches to define a domain's memory size -
one used with legacy, non-NUMA VMs configured in the <memory> element
and per-node based approach on NUMA machines - the user needs to make
sure that both are specified correctly in the NUMA case.
To avoid this burden on the user I'd like to replace the NUMA case with
automatic totaling of the memory size. To achieve this I need to replace
direct access to the virDomainMemtune's 'max_balloon' field with
two separate getters depending on the desired size.
The two sizes are needed as:
1) Startup memory size doesn't include memory modules in some
hypervisors.
2) After startup these count as the usable memory size.
Note that the comments for the functions are future aware and document
state that will be present after a few later patches.
VMware ESX does not always set the "serialX.fileType" tag in VMX files. The
default value for this tag is "device", and when adding a new serial port
of this type VMware will omit the fileType tag. This caused libvirt to
fail to parse the VMX file. Fixed by making this tag optional and using
"device" as a default value. Also updated vmx2xmltest to test for this
case.

Replace:
if (virBufferError(&buf)) {
virBufferFreeAndReset(&buf);
virReportOOMError();
...
}
with:
if (virBufferCheckError(&buf) < 0)
...
This should not be a functional change (unless some callers
misused the virBuffer APIs - a different error would be reported
then)
The original implementation of the VMX config parser assumed that the
virtualHW.version would have more influence on the content of the VMX
file than it actually seems to have. It started with accepting only
version 4. Additonal versions were added later without any additional
changes in the parser itself. This suggests that the influence of the
virtualHW.version on the content and format of the VMX file is small
or non-existent.
The parser worked without any changes across several virtualHW and
vSphere versions. So instead of adding new virtualHW.version values to
the parser as they come along, or adding an extra flag to allow unknown
virtualHW.version values just relax the check to require version 4 or
later.
A future patch wants to create disk definitions with non-zero
default contents; to avoid crashes, all callers that allocate
a disk definition should go through a common point.
I found allocation points by looking for any code that increments
ndisks, as well as any matches for ALLOC.*disk. Most places that
modified ndisks were covered by the parse from XML to domain/device
definition by initial domain creation or device hotplug; I also
hand-checked all drivers that generate a device struct on the
fly during getXMLDesc.

vmx/vmx.c ignores the transient attribute on the disk xml format. This patch
adds a 1-1 relationship between it and [disk].mode = "independent-nonpersistent".

The vmx file parsing code was reporting errors when parsing floppy.fileName
entries if the filename didn't end in .flp. There is no such restriction in
ESX; even using the GUI to configure floppy filenames you can specify any
arbitrary file with any extension.
Fix by changing the vmx parsing code so that it uses the floppy.fileType
value to determine whether floppy.fileName refers to a block device or a
regular file.
Also remove code that would have generated an error if no floppy.fileName
was specified. This is not an error either.
Updated the floppy tests in vmx2xmltest.c and xml2vmxtest.c.
The virVMXFormatConfig called virVMXEscapeHexPipe but
forgot to check for OOM. This caused data to silently
be lost.

VMWare Fusion 5 can set the CD-ROM's device name to be 'auto detect' when
using the physical drive via 'cdrom-raw' device type. VMWare will then
connect to first available host CD-ROM to the virtual machine upon start
up according to VMWare documentation. If no device is available, it
appears that the device will remain disconnected.
To better model this a CD-ROM that is marked as "auto detect" when in
the off state would be modeled as the following with this patch:
<disk type='block' device='lun'>
<source startupPolicy='optional'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
Once the domain transitions to the powered on state, libvirt can
populate the remaining source data with what is connected, if anything.
However future power cycles, the domain may not always start with that
device attached.
According to VMWare's documentation 'cdrom-raw' is an acceptable value
for deviceType for a CD-ROM drive. The documentation states that the VMX
configuration for a CD-ROM deviceType is as follows:
ide|scsi(n):(n).deviceType = "cdrom-raw|atapi-cdrom|cdrom-image"
From the documentation it appears the following is true:
- cdrom-image = Provides the ISO to the VM
- atapi-cdrom = Provides a NEC emulated ATAPI CD-ROM on top of the host
CD-ROM
- cdrom-raw = Passthru for a host CD-ROM drive. Allows CD-R burning from
within the guest.
A CD-ROM prior to this patch would always provide an 'atapi-cdrom' is
modeled as:
<disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
This patch allows the 'device' attribute to be set to 'lun' for a raw
acccess CD-ROM such as:
<disk type='block' device='lun'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
Sometimes a serial port might not be actually wired to a device when the
user does not have the VM powered on and we should not consider this a
fatal error.
virVMXFormatHardDisk() and virVMXFormatCDROM() duplicated a lot of code
from each other and made a lot of nested if checks to build each part of
the VMX file. This hopefully simplifies the code path while combining
the two functions with no net difference.
Previously the error message showed the following:
error: internal error: Invalid or not yet handled value 'auto detect'
for VMX entry 'ide0:0.fileName'
This left the user unsure if it was a CD-ROM or a disk device that they
needed to fix. Now the error shows:
error: internal error: Invalid or not yet handled value 'auto detect'
for VMX entry 'ide0:0.fileName' for device type 'cdrom-raw'
Which should hopefully make it easier to see the issue with the VMX
configuration.
