Depending if the qemu binary supports multiple pci-busses, the device
options will contain "bus=pci" or "bus=pci.0".
Only x86_64 and i686 seem to have support for multiple PCI-busses. When
a guest of these architectures is started, set the
QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS flag.

Command line building for incoming tunneled migration is missed,
as a result, all the tunneled migration will fail with "unknown

Use it in all places where a memory or storage request size is converted
to a larger granularity. This avoids requesting too small memory or storage
sizes that could result from the truncation done by a simple division.
This extends the round up fix in 6002e0406c
to the whole codebase.
Instead of reporting errors for odd values in the VMX code round them up.
Update the QEMU Argv tests accordingly as the original memory size 219200
isn't a even multiple of 1024 and is rounded up to 215 megabyte now. Change
it to 219100 and 219136. Use two different values intentionally to make
sure that rounding up works.
Update virsh.pod accordingly, as rounding down and rejecting are replaced
by rounding up.
qemu allows the user to choose what io storage api should be used,
either the default (threads) or native (linux aio) which in the latter
case can result in better performance.
Based on a patch originally by Matthias Dahl.

When attaching device from a xml file and the device is mis-configured,

In QEMU, the card itself is a PCI device, but it requires a codec
(either -device hda-output or -device hda-duplex) to actually output
sound. Specifying <sound model='ich6'/> gives us -device intel-hda
-device hda-duplex I think it's important that a simple <sound model='ich6'/>
sets up a useful codec, to have consistent behavior with all other sound cards.
This is basically Dan's proposal of
<sound model='ich6'>
<codec type='output' slot='0'/>
<codec type='duplex' slot='3'/>
</sound>
without the codec bits implemented.
The important thing is to keep a consistent API here, we don't want some
<sound> devs require tweaking codecs but not others. Steps I see to
accomplishing this:
- every <sound> device has a <codec type='default'/> (unless codecs are
manually specified)
- <codec type='none'/> is required to specify 'no codecs'
- new audio settings like mic=on|off could then be exposed in
<sound> or <codec> in a consistent manner for all sound models
v2:
Use model='ich6'
v3:
Use feature detection, from eblake
Set codec id, bus, and cad values
v4:
intel-hda isn't supported if -device isn't available
v5:

If vnc_auto_unix_socket is enabled, any VNC devices without a hardcoded
listen or socket value will be setup to serve over a unix socket in
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/$vmname.vnc.
We store the generated socket path in the transient VM definition at
CLI build time.
QEMU supports serving VNC over a unix domain socket rather than traditional
TCP host/port. This is specified with:
<graphics type='vnc' socket='/foo/bar/baz'/>
This provides better security access control than VNC listening on
127.0.0.1, but will cause issues with tools that rely on the lax security
(virt-manager in fedora runs as regular user by default, and wouldn't be
able to access a socket owned by 'qemu' or 'root').
Also not currently supported by any clients, though I have patches for
virt-manager, and virt-viewer should be simple to update.
v2:
schema: Make listen vs. socket a <choice>
Report VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED instead of VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR,
as it's valid in our domain schema, just unsupported by hypervisor
here.

When using -incoming stdio or -incoming exec:, qemu keeps the
stdin fd open long after the migration is complete. Not to
mention that exec:cat is horribly inefficient, by doubling the
I/O and going through a popen interface in qemu.
The new -incoming fd: of qemu 0.12.0 closes the fd after using
it, and allows us to bypass an intermediary cat process for
less I/O.

migration via fd: when possible. Consolidate migration handling

In short, under heavy load, it's possible for qemu's networking to
lock up due to the tap device's default 1MB sndbuf being
inadequate. adding "sndbuf=0" to the qemu commandline -netdevice
option will alleviate this problem (sndbuf=0 actually sets it to
0xffffffff).
Because we must be able to explicitly specify "0" as a value, the
standard practice of "0 means not specified" won't work here. Instead,
virDomainNetDef also has a sndbuf_specified, which defaults to 0, but
is set to 1 if some value was given.
The sndbuf value is put inside a <tune> element of each <interface> in
the domain. The intent is that further tunable settings will also be
placed inside this element.
<interface type='network'>
...
<tune>
<sndbuf>0</sndbuf>
...
</tune>
</interface>

The existing libvirt support for the vhost-net backend to the virtio
network driver happens automatically - if the vhost-net device is
available, it is always enabled, otherwise the standard userland
virtio backend is used.
This patch makes it possible to force whether or not vhost-net is used
with a bit of XML. Adding a <driver> element to the interface XML, eg:
<interface type="network">
<model type="virtio"/>
<driver name="vhost"/>
will force use of vhost-net (if it's not available, the domain will
fail to start). if driver name="qemu", vhost-net will not be used even
if it is available.
If there is no <driver name='xxx'/> in the config, libvirt will revert
to the pre-existing automatic behavior - use vhost-net if it's
available, and userland backend if vhost-net isn't available.
If the emulator doesn't support SDL graphic, we should reject
the use of SDL graphic xml with error messages, but not ignore
it silently, and pretend things are fine.
"-sdl" flag was exposed explicitly by qemu since 0.10.0, more detail:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-January/msg00442.html
And we already have capability flag "QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_0_10", which
could be used to prevent the patch affecting the older versions
of QEMU.

Skip IB700 when assigning PCI slots.
Note: the I6300ESB watchdog _is_ a PCI device.
To test this: I applied this patch to libvirt-0.8.3-2.fc14 (rebasing
it slightly: qemu_command.c didn't exist in that version) and
installed this on my machine, then tested that I could successfully
add an ib700 watchdog device to a guest, start the guest, and the
ib700 was available to the guest. I also added an i6300esb (PCI)
watchdog to another guest, and verified that libvirt assigned a PCI
device to it, that the guest could be started, and that i6300esb was
present in the guest.
Note that if you previously had a domain with a ib700 watchdog, it
would have had an <address type='pci' .../> clause added to it in the
libvirt configuration. This patch does not attempt to remove this.
You cannot start such a domain -- qemu gives an error if you try.
With this patch you are able to remove the bogus address element
without libvirt adding it back.
