d024a7da7a secdrivers: Relabel firmware config files
For the case where -fw_cfg uses a file, we need to set the
seclabels on it to allow QEMU the access. While QEMU allows
writing into the file (if specified on the command line), so far
we are enabling reading only and thus we can use read only label
(in case of SELinux).

This capability tracks whether QEMU supports -fw_cfg command line

There are some releases of QEMU which support -fw_cfg but not
filename. If this is ever a problem we can refine the capability
later on.

b5f8f04989 qemu: Validate firmware blob configuration
There are recommendations and limitations to the name of the
config blobs we need to follow [1].

We don't want users to change any value only add new blobs. This
means, that the name must have "opt/" prefix and at the same time
must not begin with "opt/ovmf" nor "opt/org.qemu" as these are
reserved for OVMF or QEMU respectively.

b44898dd31 virsysinfo: Parse OEM strings
Setting OEM strings for a domain was introduced in
v4.1.0-rc1~315. However, any application that wanted to use them
(e.g. to point to an URL where a config file is stored) had to
'dmidecode -u --oem-string N' (where N is index of the string).
Well, we can expose them under our <sysinfo/> XML and if the
domain is running Libvirt inside it can be obtained using
virConnectGetSysinfo() API.

2f82fe467f network: add private chains only if there are networks adding iptables rules
Juan Quintela noticed that when he restarted libvirt he was getting
extra iptables rules added by libvirt even though he didn't have any
libvirt networks that used iptables rules. It turns out this also
happens if the firewalld service is restarted. The extra rules are
just the private chains, and they're sometimes being added
unnecessarily because they are added separately in a global
networkPreReloadFirewallRules() that does the init if there are any
active networks, regardless of whether or not any of those networks
will actually add rules to the host firewall.

The fix is to change the check for "any active networks" to instead
check for "any active networks that add firewall rules".

(NB: although the timing seems suspicious, this isn't a new regression
caused by the recently pushed f5418b427 (which forces recreation of
private chains when firewalld is restarted); it was an existing bug
since iptables rules were first put into private chains, even after
commit c6cbe18771 delayed creation of the private chains. The
implication is that any downstream based on v5.1.0 or later that cares
about these extraneous (but harmless) private chains would want to
backport this patch (along with the other two if they aren't already
there))

bc85c34ea9 qemu: don't reject interface update when switching to/from bridged network
If virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags() was used to update an <interface>, and
the interface type changed from type='network' where the network was
an unmanaged bridge (so actualType == bridge) to type='bridge'
(i.e. actualType *also* == bridge), the update would fail due to the
perceived change in type.

In practice it is okay to switch between any interface types that end
up using a tap device, since libvirt just needs to attach the device
to a new bridge. But in this case we were erroneously rejecting it due
to a conditional that was too restrictive. This is what the code was doing:

  if (old->type != new->type)
     [allow update]
  else
     if ((oldActual == bridge and newActual == network)
         || (oldActual == network and newActual == bridge)) {
         [allow update]
     else
         [error]

In the case described above though, old->type and new->type don't match,
but oldActual and newActual are both 'bridge', so we get an error.

This patch changes the inner conditional so that any combination of
'network' and 'bridge' for oldActual and newActual, since they both
use a tap device connected to a bridge.

37ae042642 conf: force 8 byte alignment for virObjectEvent
We need to be able to cast from virObjectEventPtr to one of
its many subclasses. Some of these subclasses have 8 byte
alignment on 32-bit platforms, but virObjectEventPtr only
has 4 byte alignment.

Previously the virObject base class had 8 byte alignment
but this dropped to 4 byte when converted to inherit from
GObject. This introduces cast alignment warnings on 32-bit:

../../src/conf/domain_event.c: In function 'virDomainEventDispatchDefaultFunc':
../../src/conf/domain_event.c:1656:30: error: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Werror=cast-align]

 1896 |             blockThresholdEvent = (virDomainEventBlockThresholdPtr)event;
      |                                   ^
../../src/conf/domain_event.c: In function 'virDomainQemuMonitorEventDispatchFunc':
../../src/conf/domain_event.c:1974:24: error: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Werror=cast-align]
 1974 |     qemuMonitorEvent = (virDomainQemuMonitorEventPtr)event;
      |                        ^
../../src/conf/domain_event.c: In function 'virDomainQemuMonitorEventFilter':
../../src/conf/domain_event.c:2179:20: error: cast increases required alignment of target type [-Werror=cast-align]
 2179 |     monitorEvent = (virDomainQemuMonitorEventPtr) event;
      |                    ^

Forcing 8-byte alignment on virObjectEventPtr removes the
alignment increase during casts to subclasses.

In there due to !HAVE_LIBATTR virFileGetXAttrQuiet will return
ENOSYS and from there the chain will error out.

That is wrong and looks like:

  /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/testguest.qcow (disk target vda)

This change makes virSecurityDACMoveImageMetadataHelper and

error code gracefully and in that sense it is an extension of:

3944f6855b cpu_map: Add Cooperlake x86 CPU model
The stepping range (10-11) is likely incomplete. QEMU uses 10 and the
CPUID data for Cooperlake show 11. We will update the range if needed
once more details about he CPU are available.

9665b27dba qemuProcessRefreshCPU: skip 'host-model' logic for pSeries guests
Commit v3.10.0-182-g237f045d9a ("qemu: Ignore fallback CPU attribute
on reconnect") forced CPU 'fallback' to ALLOW, regardless of user
choice. This fixed a situation in which guests created with older
Libvirt versions, which used CPU mode 'host-model' in runtime, would
fail to launch in a newer Libvirt if the fallback was set to FORBID.
This would lead to a scenario where the CPU was translated to 'host-model'
to 'custom', but then the FORBID setting would make the translation
process fail.

PSeries can operate with 'host-model' in runtime due to specific PPC64
mechanics regarding compatibility mode. The update() implementation of
the cpuDriverPPC64 driver is a NO-OP if CPU mode is 'host-model', and
the driver does not implement translate(). The commit mentioned above
is causing PSeries guests to get their 'fallback' setting to ALLOW,
overwriting user choice, exposing a design problem in
qemuProcessRefreshCPU() - for PSeries guests, handling 'host-model'
as it is being done does not apply.

All other cpuArchDrivers implements update() and changes guest mode
to VIR_CPU_MODE_CUSTOM, meaning that PSeries is currently the only
exception to this logic. Let's make it official.
