6094ad7bd7 Promote virEvent*Handle/Timeout to public API
Since we virEventRegisterDefaultImpl is now a public API, callers need
a way to invoke the default registered Handle and Timeout functions. We
already have general functions for these internally, so promote
them to the public API.

v2:
    Actually add APIs to libvirt.h

67cc825dda Introduce virDomainGetControlInfo API
The API can be used to query current state of an interface to VMM used
to control a domain. In QEMU world this translates into monitor
connection.

1d57562942 sendkey: use consistent API convention
Even though rpc uses 'unsigned int' for the _len parameter that
passes the length of item<length>, the public libvirt APIs all
use 'int' and filter out lengths < 0, except for virDomainSendKey.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSendKey): All other APIs
use int for array length.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSendKey): Adjust.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSendKey): Likewise.
* daemon/remote_generator.pl: Likewise.

12cd77a0c5 Asynchronous event for BlockPull completion
When an operation started by virDomainBlockPullAll completes (either with
success or with failure), raise an event to indicate the final status.  This

prefer to use the event mechanism.

  src/libvirt_private.syms: Extend API to handle the new event
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Connect to the QEMU monitor event
  for block_stream completion and emit a libvirt block pull event

41514f7b3e qemu: Parse current balloon value returned by query_balloon
Qemu once supported following memory stats which will returned by
"query_balloon":

    stat_put(dict, "actual", actual);
    stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_in", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_IN]);
    stat_put(dict, "mem_swapped_out", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_SWAP_OUT]);
    stat_put(dict, "major_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MAJFLT]);
    stat_put(dict, "minor_page_faults", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MINFLT]);
    stat_put(dict, "free_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMFREE]);
    stat_put(dict, "total_mem", dev->stats[VIRTIO_BALLOON_S_MEMTOT]);

But it later disabled all the stats except "actual" by commit
07b0403dfc2b2ac179ae5b48105096cc2d03375a.

libvirt doesn't parse "actual", so user will always see a empty result
with "virsh dommemstat $domain". Even qemu haven't disabled the stats,
we should support parsing "actual".

a6135ec1e6 Introduce a new event emitted when a virtualization failure occurs
This introduces a new domain

  VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_CONTROL_ERROR

Which uses the existing generic callback

typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
                                                     virDomainPtr dom,
                                                     void *opaque);

This event is intended to be emitted when there is a failure in
some part of the domain virtualization system. Whether the domain
continues to run/exist after the failure is an implementation
detail specific to the hypervisor.

The idea is that with some types of failure, hypervisors may
prefer to leave the domain running in a "degraded" mode of
operation. For example, if something goes wrong with the QEMU
monitor, it is possible to leave the guest OS running quite
happily. The mgmt app will simply loose the ability todo various
tasks. The mgmt app can then choose how/when to deal with the
failure that occured.

a9b3a78fa6 libvirt.h: avoid regression, and document preferred name
Commit 824dcaff was a regression (thankfully unreleased) for any
client code that used 'struct _virSchedParameter' directly rather
than the preferred virSchedParameter typedef.  Adding a #define
avoids even that API change, while rearranging the file makes it
clear what the old vs. new API is.

ba0b5934b3 interface: new public API for network config change transactions
This is the API agreed on in:

  https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-May/msg00026.html

(with a slight name change to use "...begin" rather than
"...start"). This implements transactional changes to the host network
config. When a transaction is begun with ncf_change_begin(), all other
netcf APIs will continue to work as they always have, but a snapshot
of the existing config will be taken, allowing reversion (rollback,
using ncf_change_rollback()) to the exact state of config at the time
ncf_change_begin() was called. Alternately, if it's determined that
the new changes are acceptable, ncf_change_commit() can be called,
which will eliminate the snapshot and make the changes permanent.

As a failsafe measure, if neither ncf_change_commit() or
ncf_change_rollback() is called by the next time the system reboots,
the netcf-transaction initscript will be automatically called to
rollback the changes.

824dcaff78 libvirt.h: consolidate typed parameter handling
The new type is identical to the three old types that it replaces,
and by creating a common type, this allows future patches to share
common code that manipulates typed parameters.

This change is backwards-compatible in API (recompilation works
without any edits) and ABI (an older client that has not been
recompiled uses the same layout) for code using only public
names; only code using private names (those beginning with _)
will have to adapt.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virTypedParameterType)
(VIR_TYPED_PARAM_FIELD_LENGTH, _virTypedParameter): New enum,
macro, and type.
(virSchedParameter, virBlkioParameter, virMemoryParameter):

names for backwards compatibility.

4591df766d Remove the Open Nebula driver
The Open Nebula driver has been unmaintained since it was first
introduced. The only commits have been for tree-wide cleanups.
It also has a major design flaw, in that it only knows about guests
that it has created itself, which makes it of very limited use.

Discussions wrt evolution of the VMWare ESX driver, concluded that
it should limit itself to single-node ESX operation and not try to
manage the multi-node architecture of VirtualCenter. Open Nebula
is a cluster like Virtual Center, not a single node system, so
the same reasoning applies.

The DeltaCloud project includes an Open Nebula driver and is a much
better fit architecturally, since it is explicitly targetting the
distributed multihost cluster scenario.

Thus this patch deletes the libvirt Open Nebula driver with the
recommendation that people use DeltaCloud for managing it instead.

2b84e445d5 Add libxenlight driver
Add a new xen driver based on libxenlight [1], which is the primary
toolstack starting with Xen 4.1.0.  The driver is stateful and runs
privileged only.

Like the existing xen-unified driver, the libxenlight driver is
accessed with xen:// URI.  Driver selection is based on the status
of xend.  If xend is running, the libxenlight driver will not load
and xen:// connections are handled by xen-unified.  If xend is not
running *and* the libxenlight driver is available, xen://
connections are deferred to the libxenlight driver.

V6:
 - Address several code style issues noted by Daniel Veillard
 - Make drive work with xen:/// URI
 - Hold domain object reference while domain is injected in
   libvirt event loop.  Race found and fixed by Markus Groß.

V5:
 - Ensure events are unregistered when domain private data
   is destroyed.  Discovered and fixed by Markus Groß.

V4:
 - Handle restart of libvirtd, reconnecting to previously
   started domains
 - Rebased to current master
 - Tested against Xen 4.1 RC7-pre (c/s 22961:c5d121fd35c0)

V3:
  - Reserve vnc port within driver when autoport=yes

V2:
  - Update to Xen 4.1 RC6-pre (c/s 22940:5a4710640f81)
  - Rebased to current master
  - Plug memory leaks found by Stefano Stabellini and valgrind
  - Handle SHUTDOWN_crash domain death event

HMP much more usable for humans, one ends up typing something like the
following:

    virsh qemu-monitor-command DOM \
'{"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"info kvm"}}'

which is not a very convenient way of debugging qemu.

This patch introduces --hmp option to qemu-monitor-command, which says
that the provided command is in HMP. If libvirt uses QMP to talk with
qemu, the command will automatically be converted into QMP. So the
example above is simplified to just

    virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp DOM "info kvm"

Also the result is converted from

    {"return":"kvm support: enabled\r\n"}

to just plain HMP:

    kvm support: enabled

If libvirt talks to qemu in HMP, --hmp flag is obviously a noop.

2deb32ae02 virterror: avoid API breakage with vmware
Fix glitch in commit cddd2a06 (thankfully post-0.8.6, so no
released version has the glitch).

Document and try to workaround glitch in commit 46e9b0f (in 0.8.0),
which invalidated 6 virErrorNumber values dating as far back as 0.7.1.

My audit did not find any other glitches until pre-0.1.0 days.  I'm
not sure how to add a syntax-check off the top of my head, but
hopefully the explicit numbering will make people think twice about
renumbering in the future.

* include/libvirt/virterror.h (virErrorDomain): Avoid inserting
new values in the middle, and add explicit numbering to help avoid
this in the future.
(virErrorNumber): Add explicit numbering, and document the snafu.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteIO): Compensate for the snafu.

ac9dd4a676 Fix host CPU counting on unusual NUMA topologies
The nodeinfo structure includes

    nodes   : the number of NUMA cell, 1 for uniform mem access
    sockets : number of CPU socket per node
    cores   : number of core per socket
    threads : number of threads per core

which does not work well for NUMA topologies where each node does not
consist of integral number of CPU sockets.

We also have VIR_NODEINFO_MAXCPUS macro in public libvirt.h which
computes maximum number of CPUs as (nodes * sockets * cores * threads).

As a result, we can't just change sockets to report total number of
sockets instead of sockets per node. This would probably be the easiest
since I doubt anyone is using the field directly. But because of the
macro, some apps might be using sockets indirectly.

This patch leaves sockets to be the number of CPU sockets per node (and
fixes qemu driver to comply with this) on machines where sockets can be
divided by nodes. If we can't divide sockets by nodes, we behave as if
there was just one NUMA node containing all sockets. Apps interested in
NUMA should consult capabilities XML, which is what they probably do
anyway.

This way, the only case in which apps that care about NUMA may break is
on machines with funky NUMA topology. And there is a chance libvirt
wasn't able to start any guests on those machines anyway (although it
depends on the topology, total number of CPUs and kernel version).
Nothing changes at all for apps that don't care about NUMA.
