The patch adds <cpu> element to domain capabilities XML:
<cpu>
<mode name='host-passthrough' supported='yes'/>
<mode name='host-model' supported='yes'/>
<mode name='custom' supported='yes'>
<model>Broadwell</model>
<model>Broadwell-noTSX</model>
...
</mode>
</cpu>
Applications can use it to inspect what CPU configuration modes are
supported for a specific combination of domain type, emulator binary,
guest architecture and machine type.

Add a new secret usage type known as "tls" - it will handle adding the
secret objects for various TLS objects that need to provide some sort
of passphrase in order to access the credentials.
The format is:
<secret ephemeral='no' private='no'>
<description>Sample TLS secret</description>
<usage type='tls'>
<name>mumblyfratz</name>
</usage>
</secret>
Once defined and a passphrase set, future patches will allow the UUID
to be set in the qemu.conf file and thus used as a secret for various
TLS options such as a chardev serial TCP connection, a NBD client/server
connection, and migration.

Add support for using the new approach to hotplug vcpus using device_add
during startup of qemu to allow sparse vcpu topologies.
There are a few limitations imposed by qemu on the supported
configuration:
- vcpu0 needs to be always present and not hotpluggable
- non-hotpluggable cpus need to be ordered at the beginning
- order of the vcpus needs to be unique for every single hotpluggable
entity
Qemu also doesn't really allow to query the information necessary to
start a VM with the vcpus directly on the commandline. Fortunately they
can be hotplugged during startup.
The new hotplug code uses the following approach:
- non-hotpluggable vcpus are counted and put to the -smp option
- qemu is started
- qemu is queried for the necessary information
- the configuration is checked
- the hotpluggable vcpus are hotplugged
- vcpus are started
This patch adds a lot of checking code and enables the support to
specify the individual vcpu element with qemu.
Individual vCPU hotplug requires us to track the state of any vCPU. To
allow this add the following XML:
<domain>
...
<vcpu current='2'>3</vcpu>
<vcpus>
<vcpu id='0' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='no' order='1'/>
<vcpu id='1' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='yes' order='2'/>
<vcpu id='1' enabled='no' hotpluggable='yes'/>
</vcpus>
...
The 'enabled' attribute allows to control the state of the vcpu.
'hotpluggable' controls whether given vcpu can be hotplugged and 'order'
allows to specify the order to add the vcpus.
For some unknown reason the original implementation of the <forwarder>
element only took advantage of part of the functionality in the
dnsmasq feature it exposes - it allowed specifying the ip address of a
DNS server which *all* DNS requests would be forwarded to, like this:
<forwarder addr='192.168.123.25'/>
This is a frontend for dnsmasq's "server" option, which also allows
you to specify a domain that must be matched in order for a request to
be forwarded to a particular server. This patch adds support for
specifying the domain. For example:
<forwarder domain='example.com' addr='192.168.1.1'/>
<forwarder domain='www.example.com'/>
<forwarder domain='travesty.org' addr='10.0.0.1'/>
would forward requests for bob.example.com, ftp.example.com and
joe.corp.example.com all to the DNS server at 192.168.1.1, but would
forward requests for travesty.org and www.travesty.org to
10.0.0.1. And due to the second line, requests for www.example.com,
and odd.www.example.com would be resolved by the libvirt network's own
DNS server (i.e. thery wouldn't be immediately forwarded) even though
they also match 'example.com' - the match is given to the entry with
the longest matching domain. DNS requests not matching any of the
entries would be resolved by the libvirt network's own DNS server.

If you define a libvirt virtual network with one or more IP addresses,
it starts up an instance of dnsmasq. It's always been possible to
avoid dnsmasq's dhcp server (simply don't include a <dhcp> element),
but until now it wasn't possible to avoid having the DNS server
listening; even if the network has no <dns> element, it is started
using default settings.
This patch adds a new attribute to <dns>: enable='yes|no'. For
backward compatibility, it defaults to 'yes', but if you don't want a
DNS server created for the network, you can simply add:
<dns enable='no'/>
to the network configuration, and next time the network is started
there will be no dns server created (if there is dhcp configuration,
dnsmasq will be started with "port=0" which disables the DNS server;
if there is no dhcp configuration, dnsmasq won't be started at all).
The new forward mode 'open' is just like mode='route', except that no
firewall rules are added to assure that any traffic does or doesn't
pass. It is assumed that either they aren't necessary, or they will be
setup outside the scope of libvirt.

On UNIX like systems there are no constraints on what characters
can be in file/dir names (except for NULL, obviously). Moreover,
some values that we think of as paths (e.g. disk source) are not
necessarily paths at all. For instance, some hypervisors take
that as an arbitrary identifier and corresponding file is then
looked up by hypervisor in its table. Instead of trying to fix
our regular expressions (and forgetting to include yet another
character there), lets drop the validation completely.

I apparently misunderstood Marcel's description of what could and
couldn't be plugged into qemu's pxb-pcie controller (known as
pcie-expander-bus in libvirt) - I specifically allowed directly
connecting a pcie-switch-upstream-port, and it turns out that causes
the guest kernel to crash.
This patch forbids such a connection, and updates the xml docs
appropriately.

I had no idea what was going on, so I've nailed down the commit

that the commit might actually just exposed a problem we had. And
guess what - I've nailed it down. Of course we are not
distributing subsite.xsl that's why make prints error message.
Very misleading one I must say.

This element will control secure boot implemented by some
firmwares. If the firmware used in <loader/> does support the
feature we must tell it to the underlying hypervisor. However, we
can't know whether loader does support it or not just by looking
at the file. Therefore we have to have an attribute to the

Since its release of 2.4.0 qemu is able to enable System
Management Module in the firmware, or disable it. We should
expose this capability in the XML. Unfortunately, there's no good
way to determine whether the binary we are talking to supports
it. I mean, if qemu's run with real machine type, the smm
attribute can be seen in 'qom-list /machine' output. But it's not
there when qemu's run with -M none. Therefore we're stuck with
version based check.

Add the definitions to allow for viewing/setting cgroup period and quota
limits for IOThreads.
This is similar to the work done for emulator quota and period by
commit ids 'b65dafa' and 'e051c482'.
Being able to view/set the IOThread specific values is related to more
recent changes adding global period (commmit id '4d92d58f') and global
quota (commit id '55ecdae') definitions and qemu support (commit id
'4e17ff79' and 'fbcbd1b2'). With a global setting though, if somehow
the IOThread value in the cgroup hierarchy was set "outside of libvirt"
to a value that is incompatible with the global value.
Allowing control over IOThread specific values provides the capability
to alter the IOThread values as necessary.
According to libxl implementation, it supports pvusb
controller of version 1.1 and version 2.0, and it
supports two types of backend, 'pvusb' (dom0 backend)
and 'qusb' (qemu backend). But currently pvusb backend
is not checked in yet.
To match libxl support, extend usb controller schema
to support two more models: qusb1 (qusb, version 1.1)
and 'qusb2' (qusb version 2.0).

This patch reflects cases when <interface> element and its <source>
subelement for network type are formated based on actual type resolved
from referenced network instead of original one. networkAllocateActualDevice
and virDomainActualNetDefContentsFormat are taken as reference.
The current LUKS support has a "luks" volume type which has
a "luks" encryption format.
This partially makes sense if you consider the QEMU shorthand
syntax only requires you to specify a format=luks, and it'll
automagically uses "raw" as the next level driver. QEMU will
however let you override the "raw" with any other driver it
supports (vmdk, qcow, rbd, iscsi, etc, etc)
IOW the intention though is that the "luks" encryption format
is applied to all disk formats (whether raw, qcow2, rbd, gluster
or whatever). As such it doesn't make much sense for libvirt
to say the volume type is "luks" - we should be saying that it
is a "raw" file, but with "luks" encryption applied.
IOW, when creating a storage volume we should use this XML
<volume>
<name>demo.raw</name>
<capacity>5368709120</capacity>
<target>
<format type='raw'/>
<encryption format='luks'>
<secret type='passphrase' uuid='0a81f5b2-8403-7b23-c8d6-21ccd2f80d6f'/>
</encryption>
</target>
</volume>
and when configuring a guest disk we should use
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source file='/home/berrange/VirtualMachines/demo.raw'/>
<target dev='sda' bus='scsi'/>
<encryption format='luks'>
<secret type='passphrase' uuid='0a81f5b2-8403-7b23-c8d6-21ccd2f80d6f'/>
</encryption>
</disk>
This commit thus removes the "luks" storage volume type added

util: Add 'luks' to the FileTypeInfo
The storage file probing code is modified so that it can probe
the actual encryption formats explicitly, rather than merely
probing existance of encryption and letting the storage driver
guess the format.
The rest of the code is then adapted to deal with
VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW w/ VIR_STORAGE_ENCRYPTION_FORMAT_LUKS
instead of just VIR_STORAGE_FILE_LUKS.
The commit mentioned above was included in libvirt v2.0.0.
So when querying volume XML this will be a change in behaviour
vs the 2.0.0 release - it'll report 'raw' instead of 'luks'
for the volume format, but still report 'luks' for encryption
format. I think this change is OK because the storage driver
did not include any support for creating volumes, nor starting
guets with luks volumes in v2.0.0 - that only since then.
Clearly if we change this we must do it before v2.1.0 though.

Most of the lines we look at are not going to match one of the
driver types contained in $groups_regex.
Move on to the next line if it does not contain any of them early.
This speeds up the script execution by 50%, since this simple regex
does not have any capture groups.
The %groups hash contains all the driver types (e.g.
virHypervisorDriver or virSecretDriver).
When searching for all the APIs that are implemented by a driver
of that specific driver type, we keep iterating over the %groups
hash on every line we look at, then matching against the driver type.
This is inefficient because it prevents perl from caching the regex
and it executes the regex once for every driver type, even though
one regex matching excludes all the others, since all the driver types
are different.
Construct the regex containing all the driver types upfront to save
about 6.4s (~98%) of the script execution time.
When generating the hvsupport.html.in file, we parse the -api.xml
files generated by apibuild.py to know in which HTML file the API
function is.
Doing an XPath query for every single 'function' element in the
file is inefficient.
Since the XML file is generated by another of our build scripts
(apibuild.py, using Python's standard 'output.write' XML library),
just find the function name->file mapping by a regex upfront.
Also add a note about this next to the line that generates it
in apibuild.py and do not check if XML::XPath is installed in
bootstrap since we no longer use it.
We were requiring a USB port path in the schema, but not enforcing it.
Omitting the USB port would lead to libvirt formatting it as (null).
Such domain cannot be started and will disappear after libvirtd restart
(since it cannot parse back the XML).
Only format the port if it has been specified and mark it as optional
in the XML schema.
Commit id's 'c8438010', '9bbf0d7e', and '2552fec24' altered the documentation
to describe adding a 'passphrase' type secret usage model in order to reference

usage model should be used, so adjust the various documents in order rephrase
descriptions in order to follow the correct usage model.

This is place as a sub-element of <source>, where other aspects of the
host-side connection to the network device are located (network or
bridge name, udp listen port, etc). It's a bit odd that the interface
we're configuring with this info is itself named in <target dev='x'/>,
but that ship sailed long ago:
<interface type='ethernet'>
<mac address='00:16:3e:0f:ef:8a'/>
<source>
<ip address='192.168.122.12' family='ipv4'
prefix='24' peer='192.168.122.1'/>
<ip address='192.168.122.13' family='ipv4' prefix='24'/>
<route family='ipv4' address='0.0.0.0'
gateway='192.168.122.1'/>
<route family='ipv4' address='192.168.124.0' prefix='24'
gateway='192.168.124.1'/>
</source>
</interface>
In practice, this will likely only be useful for type='ethernet', so
its presence in any other type of interface is currently forbidden in
the generic device Validate function (but it's been put into the
general population of virDomainNetDef rather than the
ethernet-specific union member so that 1) we can more easily add the
capability to other types if needed, and 2) we can retain the info
when set to an invalid interface type all the way through to
validation and report a proper error, rather than just ignoring it
(which is currently what happens for many other type-specific
settings).
(NB: The already-existing configuration of IP info for the guest-side
of interfaces is in subelements directly under <interface>, and the
name of the guest-side interface (when configurable) is in <guest
dev='x'/>).
(This patch had been pushed earlier in
commit fe6a77898a, but was reverted in
commit d658456530 because it had been
accidentally pushed during the freeze for release 2.0.0)
The peer attribute is used to set the property of the same name in the
interface IP info:
<interface type='ethernet'>
...
<ip family='ipv4' address='192.168.122.5'
prefix='32' peer='192.168.122.6'/>
...
</interface>
Note that this element is used to set the IP information on the
*guest* side interface, not the host side interface - that will be
supported in an upcoming patch.
(This patch now has quite a history: it was originally pushed in
commit 690969af, which was subsequently reverted in commit 1d14b13f,
then reworked and pushed (along with a lot of other related/supporting
patches) in commit 93135abf1; however *that* commit had been
accidentally pushed during dev. freeze for release 2.0.0, so it was
again reverted in commit f6acf039f0).

In order to use more common code and set up for a future type, modify the
encryption secret to allow the "usage" attribute or the "uuid" attribute
to define the secret. The "usage" in the case of a volume secret would be
the path to the volume as dictated by the backwards compatibility brought
on by virStorageGenerateQcowEncryption where it set up the usage field as
the vol->target.path and didn't allow someone to provide it. This carries
into virSecretObjListFindByUsageLocked which takes the secret usage attribute
value from from the domain disk definition and compares it against the
usage type from the secret definition. Since none of the code dealing
with qcow/qcow2 encryption secrets uses usage for lookup, it's a mostly
cosmetic change. The real usage comes in a future path where the encryption
is expanded to be a luks volume and the secret will allow definition of
the usage field.
This code will make use of the virSecretLookup{Parse|Format}Secret common code.
