fd6b531cb2 virfdstream: Emulate skip for block devices
This is similar to one of previous patches.

When receiving stream (on virStorageVolUpload() and subsequent
virStreamSparseSendAll()) we may receive a hole. If the volume we
are saving the incoming data into is a regular file we just
lseek() and ftruncate() to create the hole. But this won't work
if the file is a block device. If that is the case we must write
zeroes so that any subsequent reader reads nothing just zeroes
(just like they would from a hole in a regular file).

9e0ba037cd virshStreamInData: Handle block devices
This is very similar to previous commit.

The virshStreamInData() callback is used by virStreamSparseSendAll()
to detect whether the file the data is read from is in data or hole
section. The SendAll() will then send corresponding type of virStream
message to make server create a hole or write actual data. But the
callback uses virFileInData() even for block devices, which results in
an error. Just like in previous commit, emulate a DATA section
for block devices.

6e0306fa26 virfdstream: Allow sparse stream vol-download
When handling sparse stream, a thread is executed. This thread
runs a read() or write() loop (depending what API is called; in
this case it's virStorageVolDownload() and  this the thread run
read() loop). The read() is handled in virFDStreamThreadDoRead()
which is then data/hole section aware, meaning it uses
virFileInData() to detect data and hole sections and sends
TYPE_DATA or TYPE_HOLE virStream messages accordingly.

However, virFileInData() does not work with block devices. Simply
because block devices don't have data and hole sections. What we
can do though, is to mimic being always in a DATA section.

c2e1c414ef virshStreamSkip: Emulate skip for block devices
This callback is called when the server sends us STREAM_HOLE
meaning there is no real data, only zeroes. For regular files
we would just seek() beyond EOF and ftruncate() to create the
hole. But for block devices this won't work. Not only we can't
seek() beyond EOF, and ftruncate() will fail, this approach won't
fill the device with zeroes. We have to do it manually.

8a0c327f11 virsh: Track if vol-upload or vol-download work over a block device
We can't use virFileInData() with block devices, but we can
emulate being in data section all the time (vol-upload case).
Alternatively, we can't just lseek() beyond EOF with block
devices to create a hole, we will have to write zeroes
(vol-download case).  But to decide we need to know if the FD we
are reading data from / writing data to is a block device. Store
this information in _virshStreamCallbackData.

69980ab798 meson: Improve RPATH handling
Right now we're unconditionally adding RPATH information to the
installed binaries and libraries, but that's not always desired.

autotools seem to be smart enough to only include that information
when targeting a non-standard prefix, so most distro packages
don't actually contain it; moreover, both Debian and Fedora have
wiki pages encouraging packagers to avoid setting RPATH:

  https://wiki.debian.org/RpathIssue
  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RPath_Packaging_Draft

Implement RPATH logic that Does The Right Thing™ in the most
common cases, while still offering users the ability to override
the default behavior if they have specific needs.

24d7d85208 virnuma: Don't work around numa_node_to_cpus() for non-existent nodes
In a very distant past, we came around machines that has not
continuous node IDs. This made us error out when constructing
capabilities XML. We resolved it by utilizing strange behaviour
of numa_node_to_cpus() in which it returned a mask with all bits
set for a non-existent node. However, this is not the only case
when it returns all ones mask - if the node exists and has enough
CPUs to fill the mask up (e.g. 128 CPUs).

The fix consists of using nodemask_isset(&numa_all_nodes, ..)
prior to calling numa_node_to_cpus() to determine if the node
exists.

tools: fix libvirt-guests.sh text assignments
In libvirt 6.6 stopping guests with libvirt-guests.sh is broken.
As soon as there is more than one guest one can see
`systemctl stop libvirt-guests` failing and in the log we see:
  libvirt-guests.sh[2455]: Running guests on default URI:
  libvirt-guests.sh[2457]: /usr/lib/libvirt/libvirt-guests.sh: 120:
      local: 2a49cb0f-1ff8-44b5-a61d-806b9e52dae2: bad variable name
  libvirt-guests.sh[2462]: no running guests.

That is due do mutliple guests becoming a list of UUIDs. Without
recognizing this as one single string the assignment breaks when using 'local'
(which was recently added in 6.3.0). This is because local is defined as
  local [option] [name[=value] ... | - ]
which makes the shell trying handle the further part of the string as
variable names. In the error above that string isn't a valid variable
name triggering the issue that is seen.

This depends on the shell being used. POSIX shells don't have 'local'
specified yet and for the common shells it depends. It worked in bash and
bash-in-POSIX-mode, but for example dash in POSIX mode triggers the issue.

To resolve that 'textify' all assignments that are strings or potentially
can become such lists (even if they are not using the local qualifier).

53d9af1e79 virdevmapper: Ignore all errors when opening /dev/mapper/control
So far, only ENOENT is ignored (to deal with kernels without
devmapper). However, as reported on the list, under certain
scenarios a different error can occur. For instance, when libvirt
is running inside a container which doesn't have permissions to
talk to the devmapper. If this is the case, then open() returns
-1 and sets errno=EPERM.

Assuming that multipath devices are fairly narrow use case and
using them in a restricted container is even more narrow the best
fix seems to be to ignore all open errors BUT produce a warning
on failure. To avoid flooding logs with warnings on kernels
without devmapper the level is reduced to a plain debug message.

e41ac71fca numa_conf: Properly check for caches in virDomainNumaDefValidate()
When adding support for HMAT, in f0611fe883 I've introduced a
check which aims to validate /domain/cpu/numa/interconnects. As a
part of that, there is a loop which checks whether all <latency/>
with @cache attribute refer to an existing cache level. For
instance:

  <cpu mode='host-model' check='partial'>
    <numa>
      <cell id='0' cpus='0-5' memory='512000' unit='KiB' discard='yes'>
        <cache level='1' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
          <size value='8' unit='KiB'/>
          <line value='5' unit='B'/>
        </cache>
      </cell>
      <interconnects>
        <latency initiator='0' target='0' cache='1' type='access' value='5'/>
        <bandwidth initiator='0' target='0' type='access' value='204800' unit='KiB'/>
      </interconnects>
    </numa>
  </cpu>

This XML defines that accessing L1 cache of node #0 from node #0
has latency of 5ns.

However, the loop was not written properly. Well, the check in
it, as it was always checking for the first cache in the target
node and not the rest. Therefore, the following example errors
out:

  <cpu mode='host-model' check='partial'>
    <numa>
      <cell id='0' cpus='0-5' memory='512000' unit='KiB' discard='yes'>
        <cache level='3' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
          <size value='10' unit='KiB'/>
          <line value='8' unit='B'/>
        </cache>
        <cache level='1' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
          <size value='8' unit='KiB'/>
          <line value='5' unit='B'/>
        </cache>
      </cell>
      <interconnects>
        <latency initiator='0' target='0' cache='1' type='access' value='5'/>
        <bandwidth initiator='0' target='0' type='access' value='204800' unit='KiB'/>
      </interconnects>
    </numa>
  </cpu>

This errors out even though it is a valid configuration. The L1
cache under node #0 is still present.

feb8564a3c virdevmapper: Handle kernel without device-mapper support
In one of my latest patch (v6.6.0~30) I was trying to remove
libdevmapper use in favor of our own implementation. However, the
code did not take into account that device mapper can be not
compiled into the kernel (e.g. be a separate module that's not
loaded) in which case /proc/devices won't have the device-mapper
major number and thus virDevMapperGetTargets() and/or
virIsDevMapperDevice() fails.

However, such failure is safe to ignore, because if device mapper
is missing then there can't be any multipath devices and thus we
don't need to allow the deps in CGroups, nor create them in the
domain private namespace, etc.

82bb167f0d virdevmapper: Don't cache device-mapper major
The device mapper major is needed in virIsDevMapperDevice() which
determines whether given device is managed by device-mapper. This
number is obtained by parsing /proc/devices and then stored in a
global variable so that the file doesn't have to be parsed again.
However, as it turns out this logic is flawed - the major number
is not static and can change as it can be specified as a
parameter when loading the dm-mod module.

Unfortunately, I was not able to come up with a good solution and
thus the /proc/devices file is being parsed every time we need
the device mapper major.

cbce7a12b7 docs: improve auth service listing
Slightly improve the list of known authentication service types:
- reword 'ssh' to mention it is used for the ssh driver (for remote
  QEMU), and stop mentioning the removed Phyp driver
- add 'hyperv', used by the HyperV driver
- alphabetically sort the list
- use a bulletted list instead of a numbered one
