6478ec1673 snapshot: split snapshot conf code into own file
This has several benefits:
1. Future snapshot-related code has a definite place to go (and I
_will_ be adding some)
2. Snapshot errors now use the VIR_FROM_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT error
classification, which has been underutilized (previously only in
libvirt.c)

* src/conf/domain_conf.h, domain_conf.c: Split...
* src/conf/snapshot_conf.h, snapshot_conf.c: ...into new files.

1193fc5f44 libssh2_transport: add main libssh2 transport implementation
This patch adds helper functions that enable us to use libssh2 in
conjunction with libvirt's virNetSockets for ssh transport instead of
spawning "ssh" client process.

This implemetation supports tunneled plaintext, keyboard-interactive,
private key, ssh agent based and null authentication. Libvirt's Auth
callback is used for interaction with the user. (Keyboard interactive
authentication, adding of host keys, private key passphrases). This
enables seamless integration into the application using libvirt. No
helpers as "ssh-askpass" are needed.

Reading and writing of OpenSSH style "known_hosts" files is supported.

Communication is done using SSH exec channel, where the user may specify
arbitrary command to be executed on the remote side and reads and writes
to/from stdin/out are sent through the ssh channel. Usage of stderr is
not (yet) supported.

besides device_conf.c

Refactoring existing code without causing any functional changes to
prepare for new code.

This patch makes the code reusable.

3f9274a524 conf: add <vlan> element to network and domain interface elements
The following config elements now support a <vlan> subelements:

within a domain: <interface>, and the <actual> subelement of <interface>
within a network: the toplevel, as well as any <portgroup>

Each vlan element must have one or more <tag id='n'/> subelements.  If
there is more than one tag, it is assumed that vlan trunking is being
requested. If trunking is required with only a single tag, the
attribute "trunk='yes'" should be added to the toplevel <vlan>
element.

Some examples:

  <interface type='hostdev'/>
    <vlan>
      <tag id='42'/>
    </vlan>
    <mac address='52:54:00:12:34:56'/>
    ...
  </interface>

  <network>
    <name>vlan-net</name>
    <vlan trunk='yes'>
      <tag id='30'/>
    </vlan>
    <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>

  <interface type='network'/>
    <source network='vlan-net'/>
    ...
  </interface>

  <network>
    <name>trunk-vlan</name>
    <vlan>
      <tag id='42'/>
      <tag id='43'/>
    </vlan>
    ...
  </network>

  <network>
    <name>multi</name>
    ...
    <portgroup name='production'/>
      <vlan>
        <tag id='42'/>
      </vlan>
    </portgroup>
    <portgroup name='test'/>
      <vlan>
        <tag id='666'/>
      </vlan>
    </portgroup>
  </network>

  <interface type='network'/>
    <source network='multi' portgroup='test'/>
    ...
  </interface>

IMPORTANT NOTE: As of this patch there is no backend support for the
vlan element for *any* network device type. When support is added in
later patches, it will only be for those select network types that
support setting up a vlan on the host side, without the guest's
involvement. (For example, it will be possible to configure a vlan for
a guest connected to an openvswitch bridge, but it won't be possible
to do that for one that is connected to a standard Linux host bridge.)

b8fa5fd071 esx: Implement network driver
An ESX server has one or more PhysicalNics that represent the actual
hardware NICs. Those can be listed via the interface driver.

A libvirt virtual network is mapped to a HostVirtualSwitch. On the
physical side a HostVirtualSwitch can be connected to PhysicalNics.
On the virtual side a HostVirtualSwitch has HostPortGroups that are
mapped to libvirt virtual network's portgroups. Typically there is
HostPortGroups named 'VM Network' that is used to connect virtual
machines to a HostVirtualSwitch. A second HostPortGroup typically
named 'Management Network' is used to connect the hypervisor itself
to the HostVirtualSwitch. This one is not mapped to a libvirt virtual
network's portgroup. There can be more HostPortGroups than those
typical two on a HostVirtualSwitch.

         +---------------+-------------------+
   ...---|               |                   |   +-------------+
         | HostPortGroup |                   |---| PhysicalNic |
         |   VM Network  |                   |   |    vmnic0   |
   ...---|               |                   |   +-------------+

         |    Network    |                   |
         +---------------+-------------------+

The virtual counterparts of the PhysicalNic is the HostVirtualNic for
the hypervisor and the VirtualEthernetCard for the virtual machines
that are grouped into HostPortGroups.

   +---------------------+   +---------------+---...
   | VirtualEthernetCard |---|               |
   +---------------------+   | HostPortGroup |

The currently implemented network driver can list, define and undefine
HostVirtualSwitches including HostPortGroups for virtual machines.
Existing HostVirtualSwitches cannot be edited yet. This will be added
in a followup patch.

aa296e6c29 parallels: add storage driver
Parallels Cloud Server has one serious discrepancy with libvirt:
libvirt stores domain configuration files in one place, and storage
files in other places (with the API of storage pools and storage volumes).
Parallels Cloud Server stores all domain data in a single directory,
for example, you may have domain with name fedora-15, which will be
located in '/var/parallels/fedora-15.pvm', and it's hard disk image will be
in '/var/parallels/fedora-15.pvm/harddisk1.hdd'.

I've decided to create storage driver, which produces pseudo-volumes
(xml files with volume description), and they will be 'converted' to
real disk images after attaching to a VM.

So if someone creates VM with one hard disk using virt-manager,
at first virt-manager creates a new volume, and then defines a
domain. We can lookup a volume by path in XML domain definition
and find out location of new domain and size of its hard disk.

e93c33a987 parallels: add functions to list domains and get info
Parallels driver is 'stateless', like vmware or openvz drivers.
It collects information about domains during startup using
command-line utility prlctl. VMs in Parallels are identified by UUIDs
or unique names, which can be used as respective fields in
virDomainDef structure. Currently only basic info, like
description, virtual cpus number and memory amount, is implemented.
Querying devices information will be added in the next patches.

Parallels doesn't support non-persistent domains - you can't run
a domain having only disk image, it must always be registered
in system.

Functions for querying domain info have been just copied from
test driver with some changes - they extract needed data from
previously created list of virDomainObj objects.

29bc4fe646 Add a sheepdog backend for the storage driver
This patch brings support to manage sheepdog pools and volumes to libvirt.
It uses the "collie" command-line utility that comes with sheepdog for that.

A sheepdog pool in libvirt maps to a sheepdog cluster.
It needs a host and port to connect to, which in most cases
is just going to be the default of localhost on port 7000.

A sheepdog volume in libvirt maps to a sheepdog vdi.
To create one specify the pool, a name and the capacity.
Volumes can also be resized later.

In the volume XML the vdi name has to be put into the <target><path>.
To use the volume as a disk source for virtual machines specify
the vdi name as "name" attribute of the <source>.
The host and port information from the pool are specified inside the host tag.

  <disk type='network'>
    ...
    <source protocol="sheepdog" name="vdi_name">
      <host name="localhost" port="7000"/>
    </source>
  </disk>

To work right this patch parses the output of collie,
so it relies on the raw output option. There recently was a bug which caused
size information to be reported wrong. This is fixed upstream already and
will be in the next release.

0766783abb virsh: Switch from generated cmd*Edit commands to nongenerated
Currently, we either generate some cmd*Edit commands (cmdPoolEdit
and cmdNetworkEdit) via sed script or copy the body of cmdEdit
(e.g. cmdInterfaceEdit, cmdNWFilterEdit, etc.). This fact makes
it harder to implement any new feature to our editing system.
Therefore switch to new implementation - define macros to:
- dump XML (EDIT_GET_XML)
- take an action if XML wasn't changed,
  usually just vshPrint() (EDIT_NOT_CHANGED)
- define new object (EDIT_DEFINE) - the edited XML is in @doc_edited
- free object defined by EDIT_DEFINE (EDIT_FREE)

cec281fcaa nwfilter: add DHCP snooping
This patch adds DHCP snooping support to libvirt. The learning method for
IP addresses is specified by setting the "CTRL_IP_LEARNING" variable to one of
"any" [default] (existing IP learning code), "none" (static only addresses)
or "dhcp" (DHCP snooping).

Active leases are saved in a lease file and reloaded on restart or HUP.

The following interface XML activates and uses the DHCP snooping:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <source bridge='virbr0'/>
      <filterref filter='clean-traffic'>
        <parameter name='CTRL_IP_LEARNING' value='dhcp'/>
      </filterref>
    </interface>

All filters containing the variable 'IP' are automatically adjusted when
the VM receives an IP address via DHCP. However, multiple IP addresses per
interface are silently ignored in this patch, thus only supporting one IP
address per interface. Multiple IP address support is added in a later
patch in this series.

74951eadef storage backend: Add RBD (RADOS Block Device) support
This patch adds support for a new storage backend with RBD support.

RBD is the RADOS Block Device and is part of the Ceph distributed storage
system.

It comes in two flavours: Qemu-RBD and Kernel RBD, this storage backend only
supports Qemu-RBD, thus limiting the use of this storage driver to Qemu only.

To function this backend relies on librbd and librados being present on the
local system.

The backend also supports Cephx authentication for safe authentication with
the Ceph cluster.

For storing credentials it uses the built-in secret mechanism of libvirt.

2223ea984c The policy kit and HAL node device drivers both require a
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.

3f4238d771 util: Add helpers for safe domain console operations
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.

df81004632 network: support Open vSwitch
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

7c90026db9 npiv: Auto-generate WWN if it's not specified
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
identifier and 36 bits for a vendor-specified serial number.
</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.

b170eb99f5 Add two new security label types
Curently security labels can be of type 'dynamic' or 'static'.
If no security label is given, then 'dynamic' is assumed. The
current code takes advantage of this default, and avoids even
saving <seclabel> elements with type='dynamic' to disk. This
means if you temporarily change security driver, the guests
can all still start.

With the introduction of sVirt to LXC though, there needs to be
a new default of 'none' to allow unconfined LXC containers.

This patch introduces two new security label types

 - default:  the host configuration decides whether to run the
             guest with type 'none' or 'dynamic' at guest start
 - none:     the guest will run unconfined by security policy

The 'none' label type will obviously be undesirable for some
deployments, so a new qemu.conf option allows a host admin to
mandate confined guests. It is also possible to turn off default
confinement

  security_default_confined = 1|0  (default == 1)
  security_require_confined = 1|0  (default == 0)

* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add new
  seclabel types
* src/security/security_manager.c, src/security/security_manager.h:
  Set default sec label types
* src/security/security_selinux.c: Handle 'none' seclabel type
* src/qemu/qemu.conf, src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h,
  src/qemu/libvirtd_qemu.aug: New security config options
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Tell security driver about default
  config

54a38915d8 Add a virt-host-validate command to sanity check HV config
To assist people in verifying that their host is operating in an
optimal manner, provide a 'virt-host-validate' command. For each
type of hypervisor, it will check any pre-requisites, or other
good recommendations and report what's working & what is not.

eg

  # virt-host-validate
  QEMU: Checking for device /dev/kvm                                         : FAIL (Check that the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled virtualization)
  QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost                                       : WARN (Load the 'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking)
  QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun                                     : PASS
   LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26                                         : PASS

This warns people if they have vmx/svm, but don't have /dev/kvm. It
also warns about missing /dev/vhost net.

c160ce3316 QEMU guest agent support
There is now a standard QEMU guest agent that can be installed
and given a virtio serial channel

    <channel type='unix'>
      <source mode='bind' path='/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/f16x86_64.agent'/>
      <target type='virtio' name='org.qemu.guest_agent.0'/>
    </channel>

The protocol that runs over the guest agent is JSON based and
very similar to the JSON monitor. We can't use exactly the same
code because there are some odd differences in the way messages
and errors are structured. The qemu_agent.c file is based on
a combination and simplification of qemu_monitor.c and
qemu_monitor_json.c

* src/qemu/qemu_agent.c, src/qemu/qemu_agent.h: Support for
  talking to the agent for shutdown
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c, src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add thread
  helpers for talking to the agent
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Connect to agent whenever starting
  a guest
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Make variable static
