4e42ff6b7e docs: switch to using 'id' attribute instead of 'name' for links
The 'name' attribute on <a...> elements is deprecated in favour
of the 'id' attribute which is allowed on any element. HTML5
drops 'name' support entirely.

Just like I've added support for setting rx_queue_size (in
c56cdf259 and friends), qemu just gained support for setting tx
ring size.

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.

426929aea9 lxc: add possibility to define init uid/gid
Users may want to run the init command of a container as a special
user / group. This is achieved by adding <inituser> and <initgroup>
elements. Note that the user can either provide a name or an ID to
specify the user / group to be used.

This commit also fixes a side effect of being able to run the command
as a non-root user: the user needs rights on the tty to allow shell
job control.

78fc843c7b bhyve: add vga configuration for video driver
Add support for vgaconf driver configuration. In domain xml it looks like
this:

  <video>
    <driver vgaconf='io|on|off'>
    <model .../>
  </video>

It was added with bhyve gop video in mind to allow users control how the
video device is exposed to the guest, specifically, how VGA I/O is
handled.

One can refer to the bhyve manual page to get more detailed description
of the possible VGA configuration options:

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=bhyve&manpath=FreeBSD+12-current

The relevant part could be found using the 'vgaconf' keyword.

Also, add some tests for this new feature.

The parser had been clearing out *all* suggested device names for
type='direct' (aka macvtap) interfaces. All of the code implementing
macvtap allows for a user-specified device name, so we should allow
it. In the case that an interface name starts with "macvtap" or
"macvlan" though, we do still clear it out, just as we do with "vnet"
(which is the prefix used for automatically generated tap device
names), since those are the prefixes for the names we autogenerate for
macvtap and macvlan devices.

80af11d3dd conf: Introduce @access to <memory/>
Now that NVDIMM has found its way into libvirt, users might want
to fine tune some settings for each module separately. One such
setting is 'share=on|off' for the memory-backend-file object.
This setting - just like its name suggest already - enables
sharing the nvdimm module with other applications. Under the hood
it controls whether qemu mmaps() the file as MAP_PRIVATE or
MAP_SHARED.

Yet again, we have such config knob in domain XML, but it's just
an attribute to numa <cell/>. This does not give fine enough
tuning on per-memdevice basis so we need to have the attribute
for each device too.

b4e8a49f8d Introduce NVDIMM memory model
NVDIMM is new type of memory introduced into QEMU 2.6. The idea
is that we have a Non-Volatile memory module that keeps the data
persistent across domain reboots.

At the domain XML level, we already have some representation of
'dimm' modules. Long story short, NVDIMM will utilize the
existing <memory/> element that lives under <devices/> by adding
a new attribute 'nvdimm' to the existing @model and introduce a
new <path/> element for <source/> while reusing other fields. The
resulting XML would appear as:

    <memory model='nvdimm'>
      <source>
        <path>/tmp/nvdimm</path>
      </source>
      <target>
        <size unit='KiB'>523264</size>
        <node>0</node>
      </target>
      <address type='dimm' slot='0'/>
    </memory>

So far, this is just a XML parser/formatter extension. QEMU
driver implementation is in the next commit.

With the QEMU components in place, provide the XML parsing to

    <hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi_host'>
      <source protocol='vhost' wwpn='naa.501234567890abcd'/>
    </hostdev>

An optional address element can be specified within the hostdev
(pick CCW or PCI as necessary):

    <address type='ccw' cssid='0xfe' ssid='0x0' devno='0x0625'/>
    <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x05' function='0x0'/>

Add basic vhost-scsi tests which were cloned from hostdev-scsi-virtio-scsi
in both xml2argv and xml2xml. Added ones for both vhost-scsi-ccw and
vhost-scsi-pci since the syntaxes are slightly different between them.

Also adjusted the docs to describe the changes.

a46aa8852f docs: correct version requirements for <kvm><hidden='on'/></kvm>
When support was added for the kvm hidden='on' attribute in commit
d07116, the version requirement was listed as "2.1.0 (QEMU
only)". However, this was added when libvirt was at version 1.2.8 - it
is *QEMU* that must be at version 2.1.0 or later.

This went unnoticed for a very long time (over 2 years). Then a week
or two ago a new Windows convert in the #virt channel on OFTC was told
he needed to use this feature (to prevent nvidia drivers in a guest
from refusing to work due to being run in a virtual machine). There
was some problem with it being recognized and "someone" (it may have
been me, or may have been someone else, I don't remember) pointed out
that the documentation at

  http://www.libvirt.org/formatdomain.html

says that it requires libvirt 2.1.0. The next several days were filled
with agony as a new convert to Linux first tried to upgrade a Linux
Mint host running their "LTS" version to something newer, then tried
to install a libvirt build built for Ubuntu onto this, and later back
to the old LTS Linux Mint. After this he tried building his own
libvirt from source (with all the expected problems), and finally
switched to Fedora. In the end it was hours and hours of everybody's
lives that they will never get back. To now learn that he didn't need
to do this (his original libvirt version was 1.3.3, so whatever his
problem was, it was elsewhere) makes the pain all that much worse.

To prevent this from happening again, this simple patch changes the
version requirement for the kvm hidden attribute from "2.1.0 (QEMU
only)" to "1.2.8 (QEMU 2.1.0)".

9eb9106ea5 qemu: command: Add support for sparse vcpu topologies
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.

5847bc5c64 conf: Add XML for individual vCPU hotplug
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.

way to determine whether the binary we are talking to supports

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1356937

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.

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'/>

        <route family='ipv4' address='0.0.0.0'

               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

name of the guest-side interface (when configurable) is in <guest
dev='x'/>).

In the case of chassisNr (used to set chassis_nr of a pci-bridge
controller), 0 is reserved for / used by the pci[e]-root bus. In the
base of busNr, a value of 0 would mean that the root bus had no places
available to plug in new buses, including the pxb itself (the
documentation I wrote for pxb even noted the limit of busNr as 1.254).

NB: oddly, the "chassis" attribute, which is used for pcie-root-port
and pcie-switch-downstream-port *can* be set to 0, since it's the
combination of {chassis, slot} that needs to be unique, not chassis by
itself (and slot 0 of pcie-root is reserved, while pcie-*-port can use
*only* slot 0).
