4d5533ca87 snapshot: add atomic create flag
Right now, it is appallingly easy to cause qemu disk snapshots
to alter a domain then fail; for example, by requesting a two-disk
snapshot where the second disk name resides on read-only storage.
In this failure scenario, libvirt reports failure, but modifies
the live domain XML in-place to record that the first disk snapshot
was taken; and places a difficult burden on the management app
to grab the XML and reparse it to see which disks, if any, were
altered by the partial snapshot.

This patch adds a new flag where implementations can request that
the hypervisor make snapshots atomically; either no changes to
XML occur, or all disks were altered as a group.  If you request
the flag, you either get outright failure up front, or you take
advantage of hypervisor abilities to make an atomic snapshot. Of
course, drivers should prefer the atomic means even without the
flag explicitly requested.

There's no way to make snapshots 100% bulletproof - even if the
hypervisor does it perfectly atomic, we could run out of memory
during the followup tasks of updating our in-memory XML, and report
a failure.  However, these sorts of catastrophic failures are rare
and unlikely, and it is still nicer to know that either all
snapshots happened or none of them, as that is an easier state to
recover from.

(VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_ATOMIC): New flag.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Document it.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotCreate, cmdSnapshotCreateAs): Expose it.

54d9026a2c New domain state pmsuspended
This introduces a new domain state pmsuspended to represent
the domain which has been suspended by guest power management,
e.g. (entered itno s3 state). Because a "running" state could
be confused in this case, one will see the guest is paused
actually while playing. And state "paused" is for the domain
which was paused by virDomainSuspend.

ceb1d36b94 Clarify what documentation is being referenced
virsh.pod had several instances in which it referred to "the
documentation" which was a little puzzling to me since it is
documentation.  Reading the document from end to end makes it clear
that it means a specific URI which was noted previously in the text,
but I had never noticed those URIs in several years of referring to
the man page.  This patch adds those URIs to several additional places
in the text.

1e31b83560 virsh: Use option alias for outmoded "--persistent"
Since VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_{LIVE,CONFIG,CURRENT} was created,
all new virsh commands use "--config" to represents the
persistent changing. This patch add "--config" option
for the old commands which still use "--persistent",
and "--persistent" is now alias of "--config".

tools/virsh.c: (use "--config", and "--persistent" is
    alias of "--config" now).
    cmdDomIfSetLink, cmdDomIfGetLink, cmdAttachDevice,
    cmdDetachDevice, cmdUpdateDevice, cmdAttachInterface,
    cmdDetachInterface, cmdAttachDisk, cmdDetachDisk

toos/virsh.pod: Update docs of the changed commands, and
    add some missed docs for "--config" (detach-interface,
    detach-disk, and detach-device).

210ed0e871 virsh: improve memory unit parsing
The last vestige of the inaccurate 'kilobytes' when we meant 1024 is

than KiB.

* tools/virsh.c (cmdSetmem, cmdSetmaxmem): Use new helper routine,
allow passing bogus arguments on to hypervisor to test driver
sanity checking, and fix leak on parse error.
(vshMemtuneGetSize): New helper.

ab95da4058 virsh: improve storage unit parsing
Now can now do:

virsh vol-resize $vol 10M
virsh blockresize $dom $vol 10M

to get both interfaces to resize to 10MiB.  The remaining wart
is that vol-resize defaults to bytes, but blockresize defaults
to KiB, but we can't break existing scripts; oh well, it's no
worse than the same wart of the underlying virDomainBlockResize.

The API for virStorageVolResize states that capacity must always
be positive, and that the presence of shrink and delta flags is
what implies a negative change.

* tools/virsh.c (vshCommandOptScaledInt): New function.
(cmdVolResize): Don't pass negative size.
(cmdVolSize): Rename...
(vshVolSize): ...and use new helper routine.
(cmdBlockResize): Use new helper routine, and support new bytes
flag.

1c56b9fe53 virsh: add option aliases
In the past, we have created some virsh options with less-than-stellar
names.  For back-compat reasons, those names must continue to parse,
but we don't want to document them in help output.  This introduces
a new option type, an alias, which points to a canonical option name
later in the option list.

I'm actually quite impressed that our code has already been factored
to do all option parsing through common entry points, such that I
got this added in relatively few lines of code!

* tools/virsh.c (VSH_OT_ALIAS): New option type.
(opts_echo): Hook up an alias, for easy testing.
(vshCmddefOptParse, vshCmddefHelp, vshCmddefGetOption): Allow for
aliases.
* tools/virsh.pod (NOTES): Document promise of back-compat.
* tests/virshtest.c (mymain): Test new feature.

afa4336e94 virsh: add support for VIR_DOMAIN_CONSOLE_* flags
This patch adds support for the newly introduced
VIR_DOMAIN_CONSOLE_FORCE and VIR_DOMAIN_CONSOLE_SAFE flags. The console
command now has an optional parameter --force that specifies that the
user wants to forcibly interrupt an ongoing console session and create
a new one. Flag --safe requests that the console should be opened only
if the hypervisor driver supports safe console handling.

The behaviour to this point was that the daemon opened two streams to
the console, that competed for data from the pipe, and the result was
that both of the consoles ended up scrambled.

This patch doesn't modify operation of other commands dealing with
console connections (start, create) as those open connections to newly
started domains making it virtually impossible for another client to race
for the console and steal it.

* tools/console.c:
        - add support for flag passthrough
* tools/console.h:
        - modify function prototypes to match impl.
* tools/virsh.c:
        - add flag --force for the console command

419e5fb3e6 virsh: Enhance list command to ease creation of shell scripts
This patch adds new options to the "virsh list" command enabling
filtering of persistent and transient domains along with the option to
print only UUIDs or names of domains instead of printing the table.

Option --name prints domain names (one per line) instead of the default
table. Similarly --uuid prints domain's UUID. The option --table is
an alias for the default behavior.

Aditionally --persistent and/or --transient may be specified to filter
the output of domains.

172d34298f qemu: make block io tuning smarter
When blkdeviotune was first committed in 0.9.8, we had the limitation

4e9953a426 snapshot: allow reuse of existing files in disk snapshot
When disk snapshots were first implemented, libvirt blindly refused
to allow an external snapshot destination that already exists, since
qemu will blindly overwrite the contents of that file during the
snapshot_blkdev monitor command, and we don't like a default of
data loss by default.  But VDSM has a scenario where NFS permissions
are intentionally set so that the destination file can only be
created by the management machine, and not the machine where the
guest is running, so that libvirt will necessarily see the destination
file already existing; adding a flag will allow VDSM to force the file
reuse without libvirt complaining of possible data loss.

Add an option for virsh undefine command, to remove associated storage
volumes while undefining a domain. This patch allows the user to remove
associated (libvirt managed ) storage volumes while undefining a domain.

The new option --storage for the undefine command takes a string
argument that consists of comma separated list of target or source path
of volumes to be undefined. Volumes are removed after the domain has
been successfully undefined,

If a volume is not part of a storage pool, the user is warned to remove
the volume in question himself.

Option --wipe-storage may be specified along with this, that ensures
the image is wiped before removing.

Option --remove-all-storage enables the user to remove all storage. The
name is chosen long as the users should be aware what they're about to
do.
