Qemu is adding the ability to do a partial rebase. That is, given:
base <- intermediate <- current
virDomainBlockPull will produce:
current
but qemu now has the ability to leave base in the chain, to produce:
base <- current
Note that current qemu can only do a forward merge, and only with
the current image as the destination, which is fully described by
this API without flags. But in the future, it may be possible to
enhance this API for additional scenarios by using flags:
Merging the current image back into a previous image (that is,
undoing a live snapshot), could be done by passing base as the
destination and flags with a bit requesting a backward merge.
Merging any other part of the image chain, whether forwards (the
backing image contents are pulled into the newer file) or backwards
(the deltas recorded in the newer file are merged back into the
backing file), could also be done by passing a new flag that says
that base should be treated as an XML snippet rather than an
absolute path name, where the XML could then supply the additional
instructions of which part of the image chain is being merged into
any other part.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainBlockRebase): New
declaration.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainBlockRebase): Implement it.
* src/libvirt_public.syms (LIBVIRT_0.9.10): Export it.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainBlockRebase): New driver callback.
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl (long_legacy): Add exemption.
* docs/apibuild.py (long_legacy_functions): Likewise.
This API allows a domain to be put into one of S# ACPI states.
Currently, S3 and S4 are supported. These states are shared
with virNodeSuspendForDuration.
However, for now we don't support any duration other than zero.
The same apply for flags.
The RPC generator transforms methods matching certain
patterns like 'id' or 'uuid', etc but does not anchor
its matches to the end of the word. So if a method
contains 'id' in the middle (eg virIdentity) then the
RPC generator munges that.
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Anchor matches
Send and receive string typed parameters across RPC. This also
completes the back-compat mentioned in the previous patch - the
only time we have an older client talking to a newer server is
if RPC is in use, so filtering out strings during RPC prevents
returning an unknown type to the older client.
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x (remote_typed_param_value): Add
another union value.
* daemon/remote.c (remoteDeserializeTypedParameters): Handle
strings on rpc.
(remoteSerializeTypedParameters): Likewise; plus filter out
strings when replying to older clients. Adjust callers.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteFreeTypedParameters)
(remoteSerializeTypedParameters)
(remoteDeserializeTypedParameters): Handle strings on rpc.
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Properly clean up typed arrays.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: Update.
Based on an initial patch by Hu Tao, with feedback from
Daniel P. Berrange.

The RPC server classes are extended to allow FDs to be received
from clients with calls. There is not currently any way for a
procedure to pass FDs back to the client with replies

Mostly straight-forward, although this is the first API that
returns a new snapshot based on a snapshot rather than a domain.
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x
(REMOTE_PROC_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_GET_PARENT): New rpc.
(remote_domain_snapshot_get_parent_args)
(remote_domain_snapshot_get_parent_ret): New structs.
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Adjust generator.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remote_driver): Use it.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: Update.
This patch annotates APIs with low or high priority.
In low set MUST be all APIs which might eventually access monitor
(and thus block indefinitely). Other APIs may be marked as high
priority. However, some must be (e.g. domainDestroy).
For high priority calls (HPC), there are some high priority workers
(HPW) created in the pool. HPW can execute only HPC, although normal
worker can process any call regardless priority. Therefore, only those
APIs which are guaranteed to end in reasonable small amount of time
can be marked as HPC.
The size of this HPC pool is static, because HPC are expected to end
quickly, therefore jobs assigned to this pool will be served quickly.
It can be configured in libvirtd.conf via prio_workers variable.
Default is set to 5.
To mark API with low or high priority, append priority:{low|high} to
it's comment in src/remote/remote_protocol.x. This is similar to
autogen|skipgen. If not marked, the generator assumes low as default.

Matthias provided this patch to fix an issue I encountered in the
generator with APIs containing call-by-ref long type, e.g.
int virDomainMigrateGetMaxSpeed(virDomainPtr domain,
unsigned long *bandwidth,
unsigned int flags);
The generator can handle everything except virDomainGetBlockJobInfo().
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x: provide defines for the new entry points
* src/remote/remote_driver.c daemon/remote.c: implement the client and
server side for virDomainGetBlockJobInfo.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: structure definitions for protocol verification
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Permit some unsigned long parameters
The only 'void name(void)' style procedure in the protocol is 'close' that
is handled special, but also programming errors like a missing _args or
_ret suffix on the structs in the .x files can create such a situation by
accident. Making the generator aware of this avoids bogus errors from the
generator such as:
Use of uninitialized value in exists at ./rpc/gendispatch.pl line 967.
Also this allows to get rid of the -c option and the special case code for
the 'close' procedure, as the generator handles it now correctly.

This guts the libvirtd daemon, removing all its networking and
RPC handling code. Instead it calls out to the new virServerPtr
APIs for all its RPC & networking work
As a fallout all libvirtd daemon error reporting now takes place
via the normal internal error reporting APIs. There is no need
to call separate error reporting APIs in RPC code, nor should
code use VIR_WARN/VIR_ERROR for reporting fatal problems anymore.
