63b41d3f93 virfile.c: Remove some #endif comments
There are couple of conditional #includes at the beginning of
virfile.c and they try to be nice and document #endifs. But they
are mostly wrong because either they have the condition in the
comment inverted or the comment refers to a different condition
than they belong to. Just remove the comments as these #includes
are single line mostly.

69e3381626 qemu: Add e1000e/vmxnet3 IFF_VNET_HDR support
Setting IFF_VNET_HDR for a tap device passes the whole packet to the
host, reducing emulation overhead and improving performance.

Libvirt bases its decision about applying IFF_VNET_HDR to the tap
interface on whether or not the model of the emulated network device
is virtio.  Originally, virtio was the only model to support
IFF_VNET_HDR in QEMU; however, the e1000e & vmxnet3 adapters have also
supported it since their introductions - QEMU commit
786fd2b0f87 for vmxnet3, and QEMU commit 6f3fbe4ed0 for e1000e, so it
should be set for those models too.

9d15647dcb Xen: Add writeFiltering option for PCI devices
By default Xen only allows guests to write "known safe" values into PCI
configuration space, yet many devices require writes to other areas of
the configuration space in order to operate properly. To allow writing
any values Xen supports the 'permissive' setting, see xl.cfg(5) man page.

This change models Xen's permissive setting by adding a writeFiltering
attribute on the <source> element of a PCI hostdev. When writeFiltering
is set to 'no', the Xen permissive setting will be enabled and guests
will be able to write any values into the device's configuration space.
The permissive setting remains disabled in the absense of the
writeFiltering attribute, of if it is explicitly set to 'yes'.

95089f481e util: assign tap device names using a monotonically increasing integer
When creating a standard tap device, if provided with an ifname that
contains "%d", rather than taking that literally as the name to use
for the new device, the kernel will instead use that string as a
template, and search for the lowest number that could be put in place
of %d and produce an otherwise unused and unique name for the new
device. For example, if there is no tap device name given in the XML,
libvirt will always send "vnet%d" as the device name, and the kernel
will create new devices named "vnet0", "vnet1", etc. If one of those
devices is deleted, creating a "hole" in the name list, the kernel
will always attempt to reuse the name in the hole first before using a
name with a higher number (i.e. it finds the lowest possible unused
number).

The problem with this, as described in the previous patch dealing with
macvtap device naming, is that it makes "immediate reuse" of a newly
freed tap device name *much* more common, and in the aftermath of
deleting a tap device, there is some other necessary cleanup of things
which are named based on the device name (nwfilter rules, bandwidth
rules, OVS switch ports, to name a few) that could end up stomping
over the top of the setup of a new device of the same name for a
different guest.

Since the kernel "create a name based on a template" functionality for
tap devices doesn't exist for macvtap, this patch for standard tap
devices is a bit different from the previous patch for macvtap - in
particular there was no previous "bitmap ID reservation system" or
overly-complex retry loop that needed to be removed. We simply find
and unused name, and pass that name on to the kernel instead of
"vnet%d".

This counter is also wrapped when either it gets to INT_MAX or if the
full name would overflow IFNAMSIZ-1 characters. In the case of
"vnet%d" and a 32 bit int, we would reach INT_MAX first, but possibly
someday someone will change the name from vnet to something else.

(NB: It is still possible for a user to provide their own
parameterized template name (e.g. "mytap%d") in the XML, and libvirt
will just pass that through to the kernel as it always has.)

d7f38beb2e util: replace macvtap name reservation bitmap with a simple counter
There have been some reports that, due to libvirt always trying to
assign the lowest numbered macvtap / tap device name possible, a new
guest would sometimes be started using the same tap device name as
previously used by another guest that is in the process of being
destroyed *as the new guest is starting.

In some cases this has led to, for example, the old guest's
qemuProcessStop() code deleting a port from an OVS switch that had
just been re-added by the new guest (because the port name is based on
only the device name using the port). Similar problems can happen (and
I believe have) with nwfilter rules and bandwidth rules (which are
both instantiated based on the name of the tap device).

A couple patches have been previously proposed to change the ordering
of startup and shutdown processing, or to put a mutex around
everything related to the tap/macvtap device name usage, but in the
end no matter what you do there will still be possible holes, because
the device could be deleted outside libvirt's control (for example,
regular tap devices are automatically deleted when the qemu process
terminates, and that isn't always initiated by libvirt but could
instead happen completely asynchronously - libvirt then has no control
over the ordering of shutdown operations, and no opportunity to
protect it with a mutex.)

But this only happens if a new device is created at the same time as
one is being deleted. We can effectively eliminate the chance of this
happening if we end the practice of always looking for the lowest
numbered available device name, and instead just keep an integer that
is incremented each time we need a new device name. At some point it
will need to wrap back around to 0 (in order to avoid the IFNAMSIZ 15
character limit if nothing else), and we can't guarantee that the new
name really will be the *least* recently used name, but "math"
suggests that it will be *much* less common that we'll try to re-use
the *most* recently used name.

This patch implements such a counter for macvtap/macvlan, replacing
the existing, and much more complicated, "ID reservation" system. The
counter is set according to whatever macvtap/macvlan devices are
already in use by guests when libvirtd is started, incremented each
time a new device name is needed, and wraps back to 0 when either
INT_MAX is reached, or when the resulting device name would be longer
than IFNAMSIZ-1 characters (which actually is what happens when the
template for the device name is "maccvtap%d"). The result is that no
macvtap name will be re-used until the host has created (and possibly
destroyed) 99,999,999 devices.

apparmor: allow libvirtd to call virtiofsd
When using [virtiofs], libvirtd must launch [virtiofsd] to provide
filesystem access on the host.  When a guest is configured with
virtiofs, such as:

    <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
      <driver type='virtiofs'/>
      <source dir='/path'/>
      <target dir='mount_tag'/>
    </filesystem>

Attempting to start the guest fails with:

    internal error: virtiofsd died unexpectedly

/var/log/libvirt/qemu/$name-fs0-virtiofsd.log contains (as a single
line, wrapped below):

    libvirt:  error : cannot execute binary /usr/lib/qemu/virtiofsd:
    Permission denied

dmesg contains (as a single line, wrapped below):

    audit: type=1400 audit(1598229295.959:73): apparmor="DENIED"
    operation="exec" profile="libvirtd" name="/usr/lib/qemu/virtiofsd"
    pid=46007 comm="rpc-worker" requested_mask="x" denied_mask="x"
    fsuid=0 ouid=0

To avoid this, allow execution of virtiofsd from the libvirtd AppArmor
profile.

89f5b90a5f util: use host module suffix when loading drivers
Driver module loaders current hardcode ".so" as the file
extension.  On MacOS, meson uses ".dylib" as a module file extension.
This patch adds VIR_FILE_MODULE_EXT to virfile.h defined as the
hosts module extension, and updates driver module loaders to make
use of it.

46d88d8dba domaincapsmock: mock virHostCPUGetMicrocodeVersion()
Previous patch handled the runtime case where a non-x86 host is
fetching /proc/cpuinfo data for a microcode info that we know
it doesn't exist. This change alone speeded everything by a
bit for non-x86, but there is at least one major culprit left.

qemuxml2argvtest does several arch-specific tests, and a good
chunk of them are x86 exclusive. This means that 'hostArch'
will be seen as x86 for these tests, even when running in
non-x86 hosts. In a Power 9 server with 128 CPUs, qemuxml2argvtest
takes 298 seconds to complete in average, and 'perf record'
indicates that 95% of the time is spent in
virHostCPUGetMicrocodeVersion().

This patch mocks virHostCPUGetMicrocodeVersion() to always return
0 in the tests, avoiding /proc/cpuinfo reads. This will make all
tests behave arch-agnostic, and the microcode value being 0 has no
impact on any existing test.

This is a CI speed across the board for all archs, including x86,
given that we're not reading /proc/cpuinfo in the tests. For
a Thinkpad T480 laptop with 8 Intel i7 CPUs, qemuxml2argvtest
went from 15.50 sec to 12.50 seconds. The performance gain is even
more noticeable for huge servers with lots of CPUs. For the
Power 9 server mentioned above, this patch speeds qemuxml2argvtest
to 9 seconds, down from 298 sec.

2ba0b7497c virhostcpu.c: skip non x86 hosts in virHostCPUGetMicrocodeVersion()
Non-x86 archs does not have a 'microcode' version like x86. This is
covered already inside the function - just return 0 if no microcode
is found. Regardless of that, a read of /proc/cpuinfo is always made.
Each read will invoke the kernel to fill in the CPU details every time.

Now let's consider a non-x86 host, like a Power 9 server with 128 CPUs.
Each /proc/cpuinfo read will need to fetch data for each CPU and it
won't even matter because we know beforehand that PowerPC chips don't
have microcode information.

We can do better for non-x86 hosts by skipping this process entirely.
