This commit fixes the virsh prompt when reconnection to the same URI is
called: `virsh # connect --readonly` (Reconnect). The problem is
happening because the code is considering URI (name) as a mandatory
parameter to change the prompt. This commit remove the assignment into
`priv->readonly` from `if (name)` conditional.

Because WARN_CFLAGS and COVERAGE_CFLAGS are not set globally, we
rely on each binary built to include WARN_CFLAGS/COVERAGE_CFLAGS.
But it is easy to forget those - e.g. libvirt_shell.la. However,

Since update to glibc-2.26 removed the /usr/include/rpc/rpc.h we used until now,
it showed us a problem with not using XDR_CFLAGS properly. On linux that
variable has usually -I/usr/include/tirpc because we already probe for it
properly, we just don't use it everywhere we need. It is needed by wireshark
dissector as well as testutilsqemu.c (through includes) so the build fails with:

Commit fdeac7a05f tried to fix the output
of 'virsh domxml-to-native --help' by switching types around. One of the
changes broke the option parser. VSH_OT_ARGV should be used only for
variable argument count, not to make the help generator look pretty.
The correct option type in this case is VSH_OT_STRING as it's not
mandatory now since it can be substituted by using --domain.
This makes --help for this command look incorrect, but the parser works
as it should.

Due to how the processing for authentication using polkit works, the
virshConnect code must first "attempt" an virConnectOpenAuth and then
check for a "special" return error code VIR_ERR_AUTH_UNAVAILABLE in
order to attempt to "retry" the authentication after performing a creation
of a pkttyagent to handle the challenge/response for the client.
However, if pkttyagent creation is not possible for the authentication
being attempted (such as perhaps a "qemu+ssh://someuser@localhost/system"),
then the same failure pattern would be returned and another attempt to
create a pkttyagent would be done. This would continue "forever" until
someone forced quit (e.g. ctrl-c) from virsh as the 'authfail' was not
incremented when creating the pkttyagent.
So add a 'agentCreated' boolean to track if we've attempted to create the
agent at least once and force a failure if that creation returned the same
error pattern.
This resolves a possible never ending loop and will generate an error:
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: authentication unavailable: no polkit agent available to authenticate action 'org.libvirt.unix.manage'
NB: If the authentication was for a sufficiently privileged client, such as
qemu+ssh://root@localhost/system, then the remoteDispatchAuthList "allows"
the authentication to use libvirt since @callerUid would be 0.
The reason for introducing two capabilities, one for the device itself
(cap 'mdev') and one for the parent device listing the available types
('mdev_types'), is that we should be able to do
'virsh nodedev-list --cap' not only for existing mdev devices but also
for devices that support creation of mdev devices, since one day libvirt
might be actually able to create the mdev devices in an automated way
(just like we do for NPIV/vHBA).

In virsh we quite often get the domain XML just to initialize the XPath
parser so that we can extract information.
Add helpers which will simplify this by wrapping the getting of the XML
and parsing it along with error reporting.
Additionally a second helper also gets the domain object from the
parameters and releases it so that functions which need the XML as only
source of data can be simplified further.
Avoid the annoying issue where the public object freeing APIs overwrite
the error set by helper functions, since they don't invoke the callback.
The new helper remembers the error only if no previous error was set.
virDomainFree has it's quirks (does not like NULL pointers, resets
libvirt errors). Replace it by a virsh helper which will allow us to
centrally fix issues with it.
The syntax-check rule will prohibit new uses of virDomainFree.
Move virshLookupDomainBy, virshCommandOptDomainBy and
virshCommandOptDomainBy to the helper file. Additionally turn the

they missed an event. Add the data to the bulk stats API where they can
also query the current backing size at the same time.
When using thin provisioning, management tools need to resize the disk
in certain cases. To avoid having them to poll disk usage introduce an
event which will be fired when a given offset of the storage is written
by the hypervisor. Together with the API which will be added later, it
will allow registering thresholds for given storage backing volumes and
this event will then notify management if the threshold is exceeded.
Add bhyve support to virt-host-validate(1). It checks for the
essential kernel modules to be available so that user can actually
start VMs, have networking and console access.
It uses the kldnext(2)/kldstat(2) routines to retrieve modules list.
As bhyve is only available on FreeBSD and these routines were available
long before bhyve appeared, not adding any specific configure checks
for that.
Also, update tools/Makefile.am to add
virt-host-validate-$driver.[hc] to the build only if the
appropriate driver is enabled.
