92678703ce docs: Document <address/> for IOMMU device
The commit v8.3.0-rc1~199 introduced <address/> to <iommu/>
device. And while it updated the RNG it forgot to update the
docs. Fix that.

468a0a6027 conf: Add support to parse/format <source> for NVRAM
This patch introduces the logic to format and parse remote NVRAM.

Update NVRAM element schema, and docs for supporting network backed
NVRAM. NVRAM backed over network would give the flexibility to start
the VM on any host without having to worry about where to get the latest
nvram image.

<nvram type='network'>
  <source protocol='iscsi' name='iqn.2013-07.com.example:iscsi-nopool/0'>
    <host name='example.com' port='6000'/>
  </source>
</nvram>

or

<nvram type='file'>
  <source file='/var/lib/libvirt/nvram/guest_VARS.fd'/>
</nvram>

In the qemu driver we will support the new definition only with qemu's
supporting -blockdev.

3e4bebb9d1 conf: Introduce <defaultiothread/>
As of v7.0.0-877-g70ac26b9e5 QEMU exposes its default event loop
for devices with no IOThread assigned as an QMP object. In the
very next commit (v7.0.0-878-g71ad4713cc) it was extended for
thread-pool-min and thread-pool-max attributes. Expose them under
new <defaultiothread/> element.

568503edf1 conf: Introduce thread_pool_min and thread_pool_max attributes to IOThread
At least in case of QEMU an IOThread is actually a pool of
threads (see iothread_set_aio_context_params() in QEMU's code
base). As such, it can have minimal and maximal number of worker
threads. Allow setting them in domain XML.

05b09f039e conf: add qemu-vdagent channel
Add the ability to configure a qemu-vdagent in guest domains. This
device is similar to the spice vdagent channel except that qemu handles
the spice-vdagent protocol messages itself rather than routing them over
a spice protocol channel.

The qemu-vdagent device has two notable configuration options which
determine whether qemu will handle particular vdagent features:
'clipboard' and 'mouse'.

The 'clipboard' option allows qemu to synchronize its internal clipboard
manager with the guest clipboard, which enables client<->guest clipboard
synchronization for non-spice guests such as vnc.

The 'mouse' option allows absolute mouse positioning to be sent over the
vdagent channel rather than using a usb or virtio tablet device.

Sample configuration:
  <channel type='qemu-vdagent'>
    <target type='virtio' name='com.redhat.spice.0'/>
    <source>
      <clipboard copypaste='yes'/>
      <mouse mode='client'/>
    </source>
  </channel>

a8b1cbe77e domain_conf: Add configs for virtio net RSS and Hash report.
Added "rss" and "rss_hash_report" configuration that should be
used with qemu virtio RSS. Both options are triswitches. Used as
"driver" options and affects only NIC with model type "virtio".
In other patches - options should turn on virtio-net RSS and hash
properties.

7767454267 fix documentation for sockets topology
In 0895a0e, it was noted that the "sockets" value in the topology
section of capabilities reflects not the number of sockets per NUMA
node, not the total number.

Unfortunately, the fix was applied to the wrong place: the domain XML
format documentation, not that for the capabilities output. And, in
fact, the domain XML interprets "sockets" as the total number, not a
per-node value.

Back out this change in favour of a note in the capabilities
documentation instead.

150540394d domain: add tsc.on_reboot element
Some versions of Windows hang on reboot if their TSC value is greater
than 2^54.  The workaround is to reset the TSC to a small value.  Add
to the domain configuration an attribute for this.  It can be used
by QEMU and in principle also by ESXi, which has a property called
monitor_control.enable_softResetClearTSC as well.

ba7f98126f conf: Introduce memory allocation threads
Since its v5.0.0 release QEMU is capable of specifying number of
threads used to allocate memory. It defaults to 1, which may be
too low for humongous guests with gigantic pages.

In general, on QEMU cmd line level it is possible to use
different number of threads per each memory-backend-* object, in
practical terms it's not useful. Therefore, use <memoryBacking/>
to set guest wide value and let all memory devices 'inherit' it,
silently. IOW, don't introduce per device knob because that would
only complicate things for a little or no benefit.

a1465e661e conf: snapshot: Introduce 'manual' mode for snapshot of a disk
The idea of the manual mode is to allow a synchronized snapshot in cases
when the storage is outsourced to an unmanaged storage provider which
requires cooperation with snapshotting.

The mode will instruct the hypervisor to pause along when the other
components are snapshotted and the 'manual' disk can be snapshotted
along. This increases latency of the snapshot but allows them in
otherwise impossible situations.

otherwise.

This patch adds a new KVM feature 'pv-ipi' to disable this feature

better performance in some scenarios. Detailed about the discussion:
