None of the existing models is suitable for use with

and in qemu/hw/char/serial.c:

  QEMU 16550A UART emulation

Historically, we've always enabled an emulated video device every time we
see that graphics should be supported with a guest. With the appearance
of mediated devices which can support QEMU's vfio-display capability,

Therefore introduce a new, effectively a 'disable', type for video

d54e45b6ed conf: Introduce new <hostdev> attribute 'display'
QEMU 2.12 introduced a new type of display for mediated devices using
vfio-pci backend which allows a mediated device to be used as a VGA
compatible device as an alternative to an emulated video device. QEMU
exposes this feature via a vfio device property 'display' with supported
values 'on/off/auto' (libvirt will default to 'off').

This patch adds the necessary bits to domain config handling in order to
expose this feature. Since there's no convenient way for libvirt to come
up with usable defaults for the display setting, simply because libvirt
is not able to figure out which of the display implementations - dma-buf
which requires OpenGL support vs vfio regions which doesn't need OpenGL
(works with OpenGL enabled too) - the underlying mdev uses.

d8266ebe16 qemu: Introduce a new graphics display type 'headless'
Since 2.10 QEMU supports a new display type egl-headless which uses the
drm nodes for OpenGL rendering copying back the rendered bits back to
QEMU into a dma-buf which can be accessed by standard "display" apps
like VNC or SPICE. Although this display type can be used on its own,
for any practical use case it makes sense to pair it with either VNC or
SPICE display. The clear benefit of this display is that VNC gains
OpenGL support, which it natively doesn't have, and SPICE gains remote
OpenGL support (native OpenGL support only works locally through a UNIX
socket, i.e. listen type=socket/none).

When 'sev' is used, the VM will be launched with AMD SEV feature enabled.
SEV feature supports running encrypted VM under the control of KVM.
Encrypted VMs have their pages (code and data) secured such that only the
guest itself has access to the unencrypted version. Each encrypted VM is
associated with a unique encryption key; if its data is accessed to a
different entity using a different key the encrypted guests data will be
incorrectly decrypted, leading to unintelligible data.

1bd5a08d38 conf, schema, docs: Add support for TSEG size setting
TSEG (Top of Memory Segment) is one of many regions that SMM (System Management
Mode) can occupy.  This one, however is special, because a) most of the SMM code
lives in TSEG nowadays and b) QEMU just (well, some time ago) added support for
so called 'extended' TSEG.  The difference to the TSEG implemented in real q35's
MCH (Memory Controller Hub) is that it can offer one extra size to the guest OS
apart from the standard TSEG's 1, 2, and 8 MiB and that size can be selected in
1 MiB increments.  Maximum may vary based on QEMU and is way too big, so we
don't need to check for the maximum here.  Similarly to the memory size we'll
leave it to the hypervisor to try satisfying that and giving us an error message
in case it is not possible.

This patch adds support for a new "genid" XML element similar to

or "<genid>$GUID</genid>". If the $GUID is not provided, libvirt
will generate one and save it in the XML.

Since adding support for a generated GUID (or UUID like) value to

However, sysadmins might want to set these on per-host basis but
don't necessarily have an access to domain XML (e.g. because they
are generated by some other app). So let's expose them under
qemu.conf (the settings from domain XML still take precedence as

68eed56b2d conf: add support for setting OEM strings SMBIOS data fields
The OEM strings table in SMBIOS allows the vendor to pass arbitrary
strings into the guest OS. This can be used as a way to pass data to an
application like cloud-init, or potentially as an alternative to the
kernel command line for OS installers where you can't modify the install
ISO image to change the kernel args.

As an example, consider if cloud-init and anaconda supported OEM strings
you could use something like

    <oemStrings>
      <entry>cloud-init:ds=nocloud-net;s=http://10.10.0.1:8000/</entry>
      <entry>anaconda:method=http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/25/x86_64/os</entry>
    </oemStrings>

use of a application specific prefix as illustrated above is
recommended, but not mandated, so that an app can reliably identify
which of the many OEM strings are targetted at it.

dump with KASLR enabled and providing additional kernel details.

In essence, it is similar to -fw_cfg name=etc/vmcoreinfo,file=X but in
this case it is not backed by a file, but collected by QEMU itself.

Since the device is a singleton and shouldn't use additional hardware
resources, it is presented as a <feature> element in the libvirt
domain XML.

The device is arm/x86 only for now (targets that support fw_cfg+dma).

74119a03f1 numa: describe siblings distances within cells
Add support for describing NUMA distances in a domain's <numa> <cell>
XML description.

Below is an example of a 4 node setup:

  <cpu>
    <numa>
      <cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='21'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
      <cell id='1' cpus='4-7' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='31'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
      <cell id='2' cpus='8-11' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='21'/>
        </distances>
      <cell id='3' cpus='12-15' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='10'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
    </numa>
  </cpu>

A <cell> defines a NUMA node. <distances> describes the NUMA distance
from the <cell> to the other NUMA nodes (the <sibling>s).  For example,
in above XML description, the distance between NUMA node0 <cell id='0'
...> and NUMA node2 <sibling id='2' ...> is 31.

Valid distance values are '10 <= value <= 255'.  A distance value of 10
represents the distance to the node itself.  A distance value of 20
represents the default value for remote nodes but other values are
possible depending on the physical topology of the system.

When distances are not fully described, any missing sibling distance
values will default to 10 for local nodes and 20 for remote nodes.

If distance is given for A -> B, then we default B -> A to the same
value instead of 20.

Since we've allowed the <auth> to be a child of <disk>, we'll need

whether to format as child of <disk> or <source>. For the argv2xml
parsing, let's format under <source> as a preference. Do not allow

Add tests to validate that if the <auth> was found in <source>, then
the resulting xml2xml and xml2arg works just fine.  The two new .args
file are exact copies of the non "-source" version of the file.

The virschematest will read the new test files and validate from a

4775ca27e9 docs: Remove unnecessary <auth> example for iscsi disk type='volume'
Alter the example to remove the <auth> from:

  <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
    <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
    <source pool='iscsi-pool' volume='unit:0:0:1' mode='host'/>
    <auth username='myuser'>
      <secret type='iscsi' usage='libvirtiscsi'/>
    </auth>
    <target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
  </disk>

and

  <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
    <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
    <source pool='iscsi-pool' volume='unit:0:0:2' mode='direct'/>
    <auth username='myuser'>
      <secret type='iscsi' usage='libvirtiscsi'/>
    </auth>
    <target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/>
  </disk>

The reality is, it's not even used. For a <source pool> the authdef
from the storage source pool will supercede whatever is in the <disk>
definition during virStorageTranslateDiskSourcePool processing. In fact,
if the pool doesn't have/need authentication, then the authdef would
be removed anyway as the storage pool would be handling things.

The "proof" for this is in the adjustment to the test to add an
<auth> for a disk. The resulting .args file won't add what normally
would be added "myname:encodedpassword@" prior to the hostname in
the IQN (e.g. iscsi://myname:encodedpassword@iscsi.example.org:3260/...

b1c81567c7 docs: switch to using HTML5 doctype declaration
The HTML5 doctype is simply

  <!DOCTYPE html>

no DTD is present because HTML5 is no longer defined as an
extension of SGML.

XSL has no way to natively output a doctype without a public
or system identifier, so we have to use an <xsl:text> hack
instead.

e5a0579996 qemu: Enable NUMA node tag in pci-root for PPC64
This patch addresses the same aspects on PPC the bug 1103314 addressed
on x86.

PCI expander bus creates multiple primary PCI busses, where each of these
busses can be assigned a specific NUMA affinity, which, on x86 is
advertised through ACPI on a per-bus basis.

For SPAPR, a PHB's NUMA affinities are assigned on a per-PHB basis, and
there is no mechanism for advertising NUMA affinities to a guest on a
per-bus basis. So, even if qemu-ppc manages to get some sort of multi-bus
topology working using PXB, there is no way to expose the affinities
of these busses to the guest. It can only be exposed on a per-PHB/per-domain
basis.

So patch enables NUMA node tag in pci-root controller on PPC.

The way to set the NUMA node is through the numa_node option of
spapr-pci-host-bridge device. However for the implicit PHB, the only way
to set the numa_node is from the -global option. The -global option applies
to all the PHBs unless explicitly specified with the option on the
respective PHB of CLI. The default PHB has the emulated devices only, so
the patch prevents setting the NUMA node for the default PHB.
