A device may be formatted using some sort of disk partition format type.
We can check that using the blkid_ API's as well - so alter the logic to
allow checking the device for both a filesystem and a disk partition.

Commit id '27758859' introduced the "NO_OVERWRITE" flag check for
file system backends; however, the implementation, documentation,
and algorithm was inconsistent. For the "flag" description for the
API the flag was described as "Do not overwrite existing pool";
however, within the storage backend code the flag is described
as "it probes to determine if filesystem already exists on the
target device, renurning an error if exists".
The code itself was implemented using the paradigm to set up the
superblock probe by creating a filter that would cause the code
to only search for the provided format type. If that type wasn't
found, then the algorithm would return success allowing the caller
to format the device. If the format type already existed on the
device, then the code would fail indicating that the a filesystem
of the same type existed on the device.
The result is that if someone had a file system of one type on the
device, it was possible to overwrite it if a different format type
was specified in updated XML effectively trashing whatever was on
the device already.
This patch alters what NO_OVERWRITE does for a file system backend
to be more realistic and consistent with what should be expected when
the caller requests to not overwrite the data on the disk.
Rather than filter results based on the expected format type, the
code will allow success/failure be determined solely on whether the
blkid_do_probe calls finds some known format on the device. This
adjustment also allows removal of the virStoragePoolProbeResult
enum that was under utilized.
If it does find a formatted file system different errors will be
generated indicating a file system of a specific type already exists
or a file system of some other type already exists.
In the original virsh support commit id 'ddcd5674', the description
for '--no-overwrite' within the 'pool-build' command help output
has an ambiguous "of this type" included in the short description.
Compared to the longer description within the "Build a given pool."
section of the virsh.pod file it's more apparent that the meaning
of this flag would cause failure if a probe of the target already
has a filesystem.
So this patch also modifies the short description to just be the
antecedent of the 'overwrite' flag, which matches the API description.
This patch also modifies the grammar in virsh.pod for no-overwrite
as well as reworking the paragraph formats to make it easier to read.

The c1140eb9e got me thinking. We don't want to special case /dev
in qemuDomainGetPreservedMounts(), but in all other places in the
code we special case it anyway. I mean,
/var/run/libvirt/$domain.dev path is constructed separately just
so that it is not constructed here. It makes only a little sense
(if any at all).

So far if qemu is spawned under separate mount namespace in order
to relabel everything it needs an access to the security driver
to run in that namespace too. This has a very nasty down side -
it is being run in a separate process, so any internal state
transition is NOT reflected in the daemon. This can lead to many
sleepless nights. Therefore, use the transaction APIs so that
libvirt developers can sleep tight again.

With our new qemu namespace code in place, the relabelling of
devices is done not as good is it could: a child process is
spawned, it enters the mount namespace of the qemu process and
then runs desired API of the security driver.
Problem with this approach is that internal state transition of
the security driver done in the child process is not reflected in
the parent process. While currently it wouldn't matter that much,
it is fairly easy to forget about that. We should take the extra
step now while this limitation is still fresh in our minds.
Three new APIs are introduced here:
virSecurityManagerTransactionStart()
virSecurityManagerTransactionCommit()
virSecurityManagerTransactionAbort()
The Start() is going to be used to let security driver know that
we are starting a new transaction. During a transaction no
security labels are actually touched, but rather recorded and
only at Commit() phase they are actually updated. Should
something go wrong Abort() aborts the transaction freeing up all
memory allocated by transaction.

virtio-pci is the way forward for aarch64 guests: it's faster
and less alien to people coming from other architectures.
Now that guest support is finally getting there (Fedora 24,
CentOS 7.3, Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian testing all support
virtio-pci out of the box), we'd like to start using it by
default instead of virtio-mmio.
Users and applications can already opt-in by explicitly using
<address type='pci'/>
inside the relevant elements, but that's kind of cumbersome and
requires all users and management applications to adapt, which
we'd really like to avoid.
What we can do instead is use virtio-mmio only if the guest
already has at least one virtio-mmio device, and use virtio-pci
in all other situations.
That means existing virtio-mmio guests will keep using the old
addressing scheme, and new guests will automatically be created
using virtio-pci instead. Users can still override the default
in either direction.
Existing tests such as aarch64-aavmf-virtio-mmio and
aarch64-virtio-pci-default already cover all possible
scenarios, so no additions to the test suites are necessary.
When coldplugging vcpus to a VM that already has a few hotpluggable
vcpus the code might generate invalid configuration as
non-hotpluggable cpus need to be clustered starting from vcpu 0.
This fix forces the added vcpus to be hotpluggable in such case.
Fixes a corner case described in:

The virsh manpage lists "shutdown" and "dying" as two of the possible
domain states that could be listed in the output of the "virsh list"
command. However, a domain that is being shutdown will be listed as
"in shutdown", and the "dying" state doesn't even exist (and never
has, as far as I can tell from looking through git history - it was
shown in the original import of the virsh.pod file in 2006; there was
no VIR_DOMAIN_DYING state then, there wasn't one when those lines of
virsh.pod were tweaked in 2008, and there still isn't one
today. Apparently it was just something that sounded like a good idea
to someone at some time, but was never implemented...)

Currently when spawning containers with systemd, the container PID 1
will get moved into the systemd machine slice. Libvirt then manually
moves the libvirt_lxc and qemu-nbd processes into the cgroups associated
with the slice, but skips the systemd controller cgroup. This means that
from systemd's POV, libvirt_lxc and qemu-nbd are still part of the
libvirtd.service unit.
On systemctl daemon-reload, it will notice that libvirt_lxc & qemu-nbd
are in the libvirtd.service unit for the systemd controller, but in the
machine cgroups for resources. Systemd will thus move them back into
the libvirtd.service resource cgroups next time libvirtd is restarted.
This causes libvirtd to kill off the container due to incorrect cgroup
placement.
The solution is to ensure that when moving libvirt_lxc & qemu-nbd, we
also move the systemd cgroup controller placement. Normally this is
not something we ever want todo, but this is a special case as we are
intentionally wanting to move them to a different systemd unit.

As it turns out using only the 'parent' to achieve the goal of a
consistent vHBA parent has issues with reboots where the scsi_hostX
parent could change to scsi_hostY causing either failure to create
the vHBA or usage of the wrong HBA for our vHBA.
Thus add the ability to search for the "parent" by the parent wwnn/
wwpn values or just a fabric_name if someone only cares to ensure
usage of the same SAN for the vHBA.
Add new fields to the fchost structure to allow creation of a vHBA via
the storage pool when a parent_wwnn/parent_wwpn or parent_fabric_wwn is
supplied in the storage pool XML.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1349696
When creating a vHBA, the process is to feed XML to nodeDeviceCreateXML
that lists the <parent> scsi_hostX to use to create the vHBA. However,
between reboots, it's possible that the <parent> changes its scsi_hostX
to scsi_hostY and saved XML to perform the creation will either fail or
create a vHBA using the wrong parent.
So add the ability to provide "wwnn" and "wwpn" or "fabric_wwn" to
the <parent> instead of a name of the scsi_hostN that is the parent.
The allowed XML will thus be:
<parent>scsi_host3</parent> (current)
or
<parent wwnn='$WWNN' wwpn='$WWPN'/>
or
<parent fabric_wwn='$WWNN'/>
Using the wwnn/wwpn or fabric_wwn ensures the same 'scsi_hostN' is
selected between hardware reconfigs or host reboots. The fabric_wwn
Using the wwnn/wwpn pair will provide the most specific search option,
while fabric_wwn will at least ensure usage of the same SAN, but maybe
not the same scsi_hostN.
This patch will add the new fields to the nodedev.rng for input purposes
only since the input XML is essentially thrown away, no need to Format
the values since they'd already be printed as part of the scsi_host
data block.
New API virNodeDeviceGetParentHostByWWNs will take the parent "wwnn" and
"wwpn" in order to search the list of devices for matching capability
data fields wwnn and wwpn.
New API virNodeDeviceGetParentHostByFabricWWN will take the parent "fabric_wwn"
in order to search the list of devices for matching capability data field
fabric_wwn.
