If a systemd socket uses /var/run in its path, systemd prints a warning
at runtime
[ 15.139976] systemd[1]: /usr/lib/systemd/system/virtlockd.socket:5:
ListenStream= references a path below legacy directory /var/run/,
updating /var/run/libvirt/virtlockd-sock → /run/libvirt/virtlockd-sock;
please update the unit file accordingly.
This minimal change updates the socket unit files to honour the
$runstatedir path.
There's no functional change by default yet since both expressions
expand to the same value.

Prepare for reusing libvirtd config to create other daemons by making
the config parameters for IP sockets conditionally defined by the make
rules.
The main libvirtd daemon will retain IP listen ability, but all the
driver specific daemons will be local UNIX sockets only. Apps needing
IP connectivity will connect via the libvirtd daemon which will proxy
to the driver specfic daemon.

Libvirtd has long had integration with avahi for advertising libvirtd
using mDNS when TCP/TLS listening is enabled. For a long time the
virt-manager application had support for auto-detecting libvirtds
on the local network using mDNS, but this was removed last year

connect: Drop avahi support
Libvirtd can advertise itself over avahi. The feature is disabled by
default though and in practice I hear of no one actually using it
and frankly I don't think it's all that useful
The 'Open Connection' wizard has a disproportionate amount of code
devoted to this feature, but I don't think it's useful or worth
maintaining, so let's drop it
I've never heard of any other applications having support for using
mDNS to detect libvirtd instances. Though it is theoretically possible
something exists out there, it is clearly going to be a niche use case
in the virt ecosystem as a whole.
By removing avahi integration we can cut down the dependency chain for
the basic libvirtd install and reduce our code maint burden.

Strongly recommend against use of the log_levels setting since it
creates overly verbose logs and has a serious performance impact.
Describe the log filter syntax better and mention use of shell
glob syntax. Also provide more realistic example of good settings
to use. The libvirtd example is biased towards QEMU, but when the
drivers split off each daemon can get its own more appropriate
example.

The global log buffer feature was deleted in:

Remove global log buffer feature entirely
A earlier commit changed the global log buffer so that it only
records messages that are explicitly requested via the log
filters setting. This removes the performance burden, and
improves the signal/noise ratio for messages in the global
buffer. At the same time though, it is somewhat pointless, since
all the recorded log messages are already going to be sent to an
explicit log output like syslog, stderr or the journal. The
global log buffer is thus just duplicating this data on stderr
upon crash.
The log_buffer_size config parameter is left in the augeas
lens to prevent breakage for users on upgrade. It is however
completely ignored hereafter.

This was in the 1.2.3 release, and 4 years is sufficient time for a
graceful upgrade path for augeas, so all remaining traces are now
