This introduces new attribute to filesystem element
to support customizable access mode for mount type.
Valid accessmode are: passthrough, mapped and squash.
Usage:
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
<source dir='/export/to/guest'/>
<target dir='mount_tag'/>
</filesystem>
passthrough is the default model if not specified, that's
also the current behaviour.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: some of the function type description
were broken so they could not be automatically documented
* src/util/event.c docs/apibuild.py: event.c exports one public API
so it needs to be scanned too, avoid a few warnings
To enable the CPU XML from the capabilities to be pasted directly
into the guest XML with no editing, pick a sensible default for
match and feature policy. The CPU match will be exact and the
feature policy will be require. This should ensure safety for
migration and give DWIM semantics for users
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c: Default to exact match and require policy
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Document new defaults
This adds a script to generate the todo item page from
bugzilla. This requires a valid username+password for
bugzilla, so it is intended that this only be run on
the libvirt.org website via cron. Normal usage will just
generate an empty stub page.
* docs/todo.pl: Script to extract todo items from bugzilla
* docs/todo.cfg-example: Example config file
* docs/sitemap.html.in: Add todo page
* docs/Makefile.am: Generation rules for todo items
This patch adds another example to the nwfilter html page and provides 2 solutions for how to write a filter meeting the given requirements using newly added features.
Since version 4.1 ESX(i) can expose virtual serial devices over TCP.
Add support in the VMX handling code for this, add test cases to cover
it and add links to some documentation.
ESX supports two additional protocols: TELNETS and TLS. Add them to
the list of serial-over-TCP protocols.
The <vcpu cpuset=...> attribute has been available since commit
e193b5dd, but without documentation or RNG validation.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng (vcpu): Further validate cpuset.
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Document it.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Fix typos.
Prior to this patch, the ChangeLog generation was hard coded to use
"awk", when it should have been using the AWK variable set by our
build system.
This breaks compilation on a newly installed OS X system, where the
default path has the Mac (non GNU) awk in the default search PATH
before any installed GNU awk (gawk).
Tweaked the PolicyKit documentation improvement patch submitted
by Patrick Dignan.
Additionally, removed the reference to PolicyKit.conf, which is
no longer used by PolicyKit, plus added a link to the expanded
PolicyKit example page on the wiki.
Added a workable initial page for the libvirt Application
Development Guide, giving the online viewable options +
the available download ones (pdf, epub, srpm).
Added a link to the PDF to the main Downloads page, plus
neatened the html tags throughout the page as they
were a bit of a mess.
Added --enable-compile-warnings=error to the autogen line,
as suggested by Eric Blake.
Xen supports on_crash actions coredump-{destroy,restart}. libvirt
cannot parse config returned by xend that contains either of these
actions
xen52 # xm li -l test | grep on_crash
(on_crash coredump-restart)
xen52 # virsh dumpxml test
error: internal error unknown lifecycle type coredump-restart
This patch adds a new virDomainLifecycleCrash enum and appends
the new options to existing destroy, restart, preserve, and
rename-restart options.
I wrote a patch to add support for listing the Vendor and Model of a
storage pool in the storage pool XML. This would allow vendor
extensions of specific devices. The patch includes a test for the new
attributes as well.

Add documentation for features added a while ago.
* docs/formatdomain.html.in (Time keeping): Update documentation
of <clock> element to match 0.8.0 addition.
The balloon device is automatically added to qemu guests if supported,
but it may be useful to desactivate it. The simplest to not change the
existing behaviour is to allow
<memballoon type="none"/>
as an extra option to desactivate it (it is automatically added if the
memballoon construct is missing for the domain).
The following simple patch just adds the extra option and does not
change the default behaviour but avoid creating a balloon device if
type="none" is used.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: add the extra type attribute value
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the extra enum
value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: if enum is NONE, don't activate the device,
i.e. don't pass the args to qemu/kvm
Now a vpx:// connection has an explicitly specified host. This
allows to enabled several functions for a vpx:// connection
again, like host UUID, hostname, general node info, max vCPU
count, free memory, migration and defining new domains.
Lookup datacenter, compute resource, resource pool and host
system once and cache them. This simplifies the rest of the
code and reduces overall HTTP(S) traffic a bit.
esx:// and vpx:// can be mixed freely for a migration.
Ensure that migration source and destination refer to the
same vCenter. Also directly encode the resource pool and
host system object IDs into the migration URI in the prepare
function. Then directly build managed object references in
the perform function instead of re-looking up already known
information.
All <console> devices now export a <target> type attribute. QEMU defaults
to 'serial', UML defaults to 'uml, xen can be either 'serial' or 'xen'
depending on fullvirt. Understandably there is lots of test fallout.
This will be used to differentiate between a serial vs. virtio console for
QEMU.

Add a new element to the <os> block:
<bootmenu enable="yes|no"/>
Which maps to -boot,menu=on|off on the QEMU command line.
I decided to use an explicit 'enable' attribute rather than just make the
bootmenu element boolean. This allows us to treat lack of a bootmenu element
as 'use hypervisor default'.
Add a pointer to the primary context of a connection and use it in all
driver functions that don't dependent on the context type. This includes
almost all functions that deal with a virDomianPtr. Therefore, using
a vpx:// connection allows you to perform all the usual domain related
actions like start, destroy, suspend, resume, dumpxml etc.
Some functions that require an explicitly specified ESX server don't work
yet. This includes the host UUID, the hostname, the general node info, the
max vCPU count and the free memory. Also not working yet are migration and
defining new domains.
Thanks to DV for knocking together the Relax-NG changes
quickly for me.
Changes since v1:
- Change the domain.rng to correspond to the new schema
- Don't allocate caps->ns in testQemuCapsInit since it is a static table
Changes since v2:
- Change domain.rng to add restrictions on allowed environment names
Changes since v3:
- Remove a bogus comment in the tests

To allow compatibility with older QEMU PCI device slot assignment
it is necessary to explicitly track the balloon device in the
XML. This introduces a new device
<memballoon model='virtio|xen'/>
It can also have a PCI address, auto-assigned if necessary.
The memballoon will be automatically added to all Xen and QEMU
guests by default.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add <memballoon> element
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: parsing
and formatting for memballoon device. Always add a memory
balloon device to Xen/QEMU if none exists in XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export memballoon model APIs
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Honour the
PCI device address in memory balloon device
* tests/*: Update to test new functionality
By specifying <vendor> element in CPU requirements a guest can be
restricted to run only on CPUs by a given vendor. Host CPU vendor is
also specified in capabilities XML.
The vendor is checked when migrating a guest but it's not forced, i.e.,
guests configured without <vendor> element can be freely migrated.
(EXTRA_DIST): Remove redundant listing of xml files.
(html/%-%.html, html/%-virterror.html, %-api.xml, %-refs.xml):
Rewrite with...
(python_generated_files): ...new macro, since make didn't see
through the dependency chain correctly otherwise.
