795642b985 qemu: capabilities: Extract whether machine type supports ACPI
The return data from 'query-machines' now contains an 'acpi' field. If
the field is present we can use it to decide how to handle user's
setting of '<acpi/>' domain feature.

Add logic to extract the 'acpi' field and store it in machine type list
along with other properties.

928e741172 src: Document virDomainInterfaceStats() limitation
For unmanaged ethernet <interface/>, it is user's responsibility
to set up the interface. And as such it can be just anything.
Therefore, it's (almost) impossible for the
virDomainInterfaceStats() API to tell whether RX/TX values need
to be swapped or copied verbatim into the return structure.

172dd3d9f7 conf: Make macvtap ethernet share host view
When fetching stats for a domain's <interface/>, or when setting
up its QoS, we can face two situations:

1) the device "shares" the host view, meaning each packet
   sent/received on the interface by a domain is accounted for in
   the same category on the host, or

2) the device is at the other side, and a packet send by a
   domain, is in fact packet received on the host.

This fact affects whether we need to swap RX/TX values when
fetching stats, or setting up QoS. We have this convenient helper
function (virDomainNetTypeSharesHostView()), which returns to
which category given interface type falls into.

Now, for unmanaged type='ethernet' our options are quite limited,
because it's user's responsibility to set up the host side of the
interface. And it can be just anything. Fortunately, we have
another convenience function (virNetDevMacVLanIsMacvtap()), which
determines whether given interface is a macvtap (which is
notoriously known for falling into the first category).
Let's use it to help virDomainNetTypeSharesHostView() determine
the view more accurately.

9567f3ba1f qemu: Move firmware selection from startup to postparse
Currently, firmware selection is performed as part of the
domain startup process. This mostly works fine, but there's a
significant downside to this approach: since the process is
affected by factors outside of libvirt's control, specifically
the contents of the various JSON firmware descriptors and
their names, it's pretty much impossible to guarantee that the
outcome is always going to be the same. It would only take an
edk2 update, or a change made by the local admin, to render a
domain unbootable or downgrade its boot security.

To avoid this, move firmware selection to the postparse phase.
This way it will only be performed once, when the domain is
first defined; subsequent boots will not need to go through
the process again, as all the paths that were picked during
firmware selection are recorded in the domain XML.

Care is taken to ensure that existing domains are handled
correctly, even if their firmware configuration can't be
successfully resolved. Failure to complete the firmware
selection process is only considered fatal when defining a
new domain; in all other cases the error will be reported
during startup, as is already the case today.

cf01bbb992 qemu: Let virCommand module translate exitstatus
When starting (some) external helpers, callers of
qemuSecurityCommandRun() pass &exitstatus variable, to learn the
exit code of helper process (with qemuTPMEmulatorStart() being
the only exception). Then, if the status wasn't zero they produce
a generic error message, like:

  "Starting of helper process failed. exitstatus=%d"

or, in case of qemuPasstStart():

  "Could not start 'passt': %s"

This is needless as virCommandRun() (that's called under the
hood), can do both for us, if NULL was passed instead of
@exitstatus. Not only it appends exit status, it also reads
stderr of failed command producing comprehensive error message:

  Child process (${args}) unexpected exit status ${exitstatus}: ${stderr}

Therefore, pass NULL everywhere. But in contrast with one of
previous commits which removed @cmdret argument, there could be a
sensible caller which might want to process exit code. So keep
the argument for now and just pass NULL.

caa25f75cf qemu: Drop @cmdret argument from qemuSecurityCommandRun()

      goto cleanup;

  if (cmdret < 0)

(modulo @exitstatus shenanigans)

Well, there's no need for such complication. There isn't a single
caller (and probably will never be (TM)), that would need to
distinguish the reason for the failure. Therefore,
qemuSecurityCommandRun() can be made to pass the retval of
virCommandRun() called under the hood.

NB, this is in contrast with cmd line generator

f62ce81b8a qemu: respond to NETDEV_STREAM_DISCONNECTED event
When a QEMU netdev is of type "stream", if the socket it uses for
connectivity to the host network gets closed, then QEMU will send a
NETDEV_STREAM_DISCONNECTED event. We know that any stream netdev we've
created is backed by a passt process, and if the socket was closed,
that means the passt process has disappeared.

When we receive this event, we can respond by starting a new passt
process with the same options (including socket path) we originally
used. If we have previously created the stream netdev device with a
"reconnect" option, then QEMU will automatically reconnect to this new
passt process. (If we hadn't used "reconnect", then QEMU will never
try to reconnect to the new passt process, so there's no point in
starting it.)

Note that NETDEV_STREAM_DISCONNECTED is an event sent for the netdev
(ie "host side") of the network device, and so it sends the
"netdev-id" to specify which device was disconnected. But libvirt's
virDomainNetDef (the object used to keep track of network devices) is
the internal representation of both the host-side "netdev", and the
guest side device, and virDomainNetDef doesn't directly keep track of
the netdev-id, only of the device's "alias" (which is the "id"
parameter of the *guest* side of the device). Fortunately, by convention
libvirt always names the host-side of devices as "host" + alias, so in
order to search for the affected NetDef, all we need to do is trim the
1st 4 characters from the netdev-id and look for the NetDef having
that resulting trimmed string as its alias. (Contrast this to
NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED, which is an event received for the guest side
of the device, and so directly contains the device alias.)

acd8333f76 qemu: add reconnect=5 to passt qemu commandline options when available
QEMU's "reconnect" option of "-netdev stream" tells QEMU to
periodically (period is given in seconds as an argument to the option)
attempt to reconnect to the same passt socket to which it had
originally connected to. This is useful in cases where the passt
process terminates, and libvirtd starts a new passt process in its
place (which doesn't happen yet, but will happen automatically after
an upcoming patch in this series).

Since there is no real hueristic for determining the "best" value of
the reconnect interval, rather than clutter up config with a knob that
nobody knows how to properly twiddle, we just set the reconnect timer
to 5 seconds.

"-netdev stream" first appeared in QEMU 7.2.0, but the reconnect
option won't be available until QEMU 8.0.0, so we need to check QEMU
capabilities just in case someone is using QEMU 7.2.0 (and thus can
support passt backend, but not reconnect)
