If QEMU in question supports QMP, this capability is set if
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL was set based on existence of "-device qxl". If
libvirt needs to parse *help*, because there is no QMP support, it
checks for existence of "-vga qxl", but it also parses output of
"-device ?" and sets QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL too.
Now that libvirt supports only QEMU that has "-device" implemented it's
safe to drop this capability and stop using it.

This patch simplifies QEMU capabilities for QXL video device. QEMU
exposes this device as *qxl-vga* and *qxl* and they are both the same
device with the same set of parameters, the only difference is that
*qxl-vga* includes VGA compatibility.
Based on QEMU code they are tied together so it's safe to check only for
presence of only one of them.
This patch also removes an invalid test case "video-qxl-sec-nodevice"
where there is only *qxl-vga* device and *qxl* device is not present.

Use the standard '-device intel-iommu' to create the IOMMU device.
The legacy '-machine,iommu=on' can still be used.

We're about to add 6 new options and it appears (from testing) one cannot
utilize both the shorthand (alias) and (much) longer names for the arguments.
So modify the command builder to use the longer name and of course alter the

Also utilize a macro to build that name makes it so much more visually

it's similar.
There is a logic in place that if there is no real need for
memory-backend-file, qemuBuildMemoryBackendStr() returns 0. However
that wasn't the case with hugepage backing. The reason for that was
that we abused the 'pagesize' variable for storing that information, but
we should rather have a separate one that specifies whether we really
need the new object for hugepage backing. And that variable should be
set only if this particular NUMA cell needs special treatment WRT
hugepages.

Most of QEMU's PCI display device models, such as:
libvirt video/model/@type QEMU -device
------------------------- ------------
cirrus cirrus-vga
vga VGA
qxl qxl-vga
virtio virtio-vga
come with a linear framebuffer (sometimes called "VGA compatibility
framebuffer"). This linear framebuffer lives in one of the PCI device's
MMIO BARs, and allows guest code (primarily: firmware drivers, and
non-accelerated OS drivers) to display graphics with direct memory access.
Due to architectural reasons on aarch64/KVM hosts, this kind of
framebuffer doesn't / can't work in
qemu-system-(arm|aarch64) -M virt
machines. Cache coherency issues guarantee a corrupted / unusable display.
The problem has been researched by several people, including kvm-arm
maintainers, and it's been decided that the best way (practically the only
way) to have boot time graphics for such guests is to consolidate on
QEMU's "virtio-gpu-pci" device.
>From <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1195176>, libvirt
supports
<devices>
<video>
<model type='virtio'/>
</video>
</devices>
but libvirt unconditionally maps @type='virtio' to QEMU's "virtio-vga"
device model. (See the qemuBuildDeviceVideoStr() function and the
"qemuDeviceVideo" enum impl.)
According to the above, this is not right for the "virt" machine type; the
qemu-system-(arm|aarch64) binaries don't even recognize the "virtio-vga"
device model (justifiedly). Whereas "virtio-gpu-pci", which is a pure
virtio device without a compatibility framebuffer, is available, and works
fine.
(The ArmVirtQemu ("AAVMF") platform of edk2 -- that is, the UEFI firmware
for "virt" -- supports "virtio-gpu-pci", as of upstream commit
3ef3209d3028. See
<https://tianocore.acgmultimedia.com/show_bug.cgi?id=66>.)
Override the default mapping of "virtio", from "virtio-vga" to
"virtio-gpu-pci", if qemuDomainMachineIsVirt() evaluates to true.

When building a chardev device string for tcp, add the necessary pieces to

VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_TYPE_TCP command line.
Finally add the tests for the qemu command line. This test will make use
of the "new(ish)" /etc/pki/qemu setting for a TLS certificate environment
by *not* "resetting" the chardevTLSx509certdir prior to running the test.
Also use the default "verify" option (which is "no").

We already have the ability to turn off dumping of guest
RAM via the domain XML. This is not particularly useful
though, as it is under control of the management application.
What is needed is a way for the sysadmin to turn off guest
RAM defaults globally, regardless of whether the mgmt app
provides its own way to set this in the domain XML.
So this adds a 'dump_guest_core' option in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
which defaults to false. ie guest RAM will never be included in
the QEMU core dumps by default. This default is different from
historical practice, but is considered to be more suitable as
a default because
a) guest RAM can be huge and so inflicts a DOS on the host
I/O subsystem when dumping core for QEMU crashes
b) guest RAM can contain alot of sensitive data belonging
to the VM owner. This should not generally be copied
around inside QEMU core dumps submitted to vendors for
debugging
c) guest RAM contents are rarely useful in diagnosing
QEMU crashes

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.

Since libvirt still uses a legacy qemu arg format to add a disk, the
manner in which the 'password-secret' argument is passed to qemu needs
to change to prepend a 'file.' If in the future, usage of the more
modern disk format, then the prepended 'file.' can be removed.
Fix based on Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.com> posting and subsequent
upstream list followups, see:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-August/msg00777.html
for details. Introduced by commit id 'a1344f70'.

Since we now pick the default USB controller model when parsing
the guest XML, we can get rid of some duplicated code so that
the default model selection happens in one place only.
Add some comments as well.
In qemu, enabling this feature boils down to adding the following
onto the command line:
-global driver=cfi.pflash01,property=secure,value=on
However, there are some constraints resulting from the
implementation. For instance, System Management Mode (SMM) is
required to be enabled, the machine type must be q35-2.4 or
later, and the guest should be x86_64. While technically it is
possible to have 32 bit guests with secure boot, some non-trivial
CPU flags tuning is required (for instance lm and nx flags must
be prohibited). Given complexity of our CPU driver, this is not
trivial. Therefore I've chosen to forbid 32 bit guests for now.
If there's ever need, we can refine the check later.

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.
