Busy enterprise workloads hosted on large sized VM's tend to dirty
memory faster than the transfer rate achieved via live guest migration.
Despite some good recent improvements (& using dedicated 10Gig NICs
between hosts) the live migration may NOT converge.
Recently support was added in qemu (version 1.6) to allow a user to
choose if they wish to force convergence of their migration via a
new migration capability : "auto-converge". This feature allows for qemu
to auto-detect lack of convergence and trigger a throttle-down of the
VCPUs.
This patch includes the libvirt support needed to trigger this
feature. (Testing is in progress)

When I start multi VMs coincidently and any of the cgroup directories
named machine doesn't exist. There's a chance that VM start failed because
of creating directory failed:
Unable to initialize /machine cgroup: File exists
When the errno returned by mkdir in virCgroupMakeGroup is EEXIST,
we should pass it through and continue to start the VM.

The caller may not want all DBus error conditions to be turned
into libvirt errors, so provide a way for the caller to get
back the full DBusError object. They can then check the errors
and only report those that they consider to be fatal.

Currently the DBus helper APIs require the values for an array
to be passed inline in the variadic argument list. This change
introduces support for passing arrays using a pointer to a plain
C array of the basic type. This is of particular benefit for
decoding messages when you don't know how many array elements
are being received.

The dbus_connection_send_with_reply_and_block method will
automatically call dbus_set_error_from_message for us. We
mistakenly thought we had todo it because of a flaw in the
systemd unit test mock impl. The latter should have directly
set the error object, instead of creating an error message
object.

When qemu dies early after connecting to its monitor but before we
actually try to read something from the monitor, we would just fail
domain start with useless message:
"An error occurred, but the cause is unknown"
This is because the real error gets reported in a monitor EOF handler
executing within libvirt's event loop.
The fix is to take any error set in qemuMonitor structure and propagate
it into the thread-local error when qemuMonitorClose is called and no
thread-local error is set.

When listening for a subset of monitor events, it can be tedious
to register for each event name in series; nicer is to register
for multiple events in one go. Implement a flag to use regex
interpretation of the event filter.
While at it, prove how much I hate the shift key, by adding a
way to filter for 'shutdown' instead of 'SHUTDOWN'. :)

Filtering monitor events by name requires tracking the name for
the duration of the filtering. In order to free the name, I
found it easiest to just piggyback on the user's freecb function,
which gets called when the event is deregistered.
For events without a name filter, we have the design of multiple
client registrations sharing a common server registration, because
the server side uses the same callback function and we reject
duplicate use of the same function. But with events in the mix,
we want to be able to allow the same function pointer to be used
with more than one event name. The solution is to tweak the
duplicate detection code to only act when there is no additional
filtering; if name filtering is in use, there is exactly one
client registration per server registration. Yes, this means
that there is no longer a bound on the number of server
registrations possible, so a malicious client could repeatedly
register for the same name event to exhaust server memory. On
the other hand, we already restricted monitor events to require
write access (compared to normal events only needing read access),
and separated it into the intentionally unsupported
libvirt-qemu.so, with documentation that using this function is
for debug purposes only; so it is not a security risk worth
worrying about a client trying to abuse multiple registrations.

Wire up all the pieces to send arbitrary qemu events to a
client using libvirt-qemu.so. If the extra bookkeeping of
generating event objects even when no one is listening turns
out to be noticeable, we can try to further optimize things
by adding a counter for how many connections are using events,
and only dump events when the counter is non-zero; but for
now, I didn't think it was worth the code complexity.

Several times in the past, qemu has implemented a new event,
but libvirt has not yet caught up to reporting that event to
the user applications. While it is possible to track libvirt
logs to see that an unknown event was received and ignored,
it would be nicer to copy what 'virsh qemu-monitor-command'
does, and expose this information to the end developer as
one of our unsupported qemu-specific commands.
If you find yourself needing to use this API for more than
just development purposes, please ask on the libvirt list
for a supported counterpart event to be added in libvirt.so.
While the supported virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny() API
takes an id which determines the signature of the callback,
this version takes a string filter and always uses the same
signature. Furthermore, I chose to expose this as a new API
instead of trying to add a new eventID at the top level, in
part because the generic option lacks event name filtering,
and in part because the normal domain event namespace should
not be polluted by a qemu-only event. I also added a flags
argument; unused for now, but we might decide to use it to
allow a user to request event names by glob or regex instead
of literal match.
This API intentionally requires full write access (while
normal event registration is allowed on read-only clients);
this is in part due to the fact that it should only be used
by debugging situations, and in part because the design of
per-event filtering in later patches ended up allowing for
duplicate registrations that could potentially be abused to
exhaust server memory - requiring write privileges means
that such abuse will not serve as a denial of service attack
against users with higher privileges.

If we cannot stat/open a file on pool refresh, returning -1 aborts
the refresh and the pool is undefined.
Only treat missing files as fatal unless VolOpenCheckMode is called
with the VIR_STORAGE_VOL_OPEN_ERROR flag. If this flag is missing
(when it's called from virStorageBackendProbeTarget in
virStorageBackendFileSystemRefresh), only emit a warning and return
-2 to let the caller skip over the file.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=977706
Without this, using /dev/mapper as a directory pool
fails in virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD:
cannot seek to end of file '/dev/mapper/control': Illegal seek
Skip over character devices by default.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710866
virStorageBackendISCSISession only needs the path of the source
device and virStorageBackendISCSIRescanLUNs doesn't need the pool
at all.
This will allow the functions to be moved to src/util.
Although not explicitly requested, we are using K&R (or Kernel)
indentation for curly braces around functions in HACKING file and most
of the code. Using grep -P, this patch add the syntax-check rule for
it (while skipping all the false positives with foreach constructs).
