We have seen an issue on s390x platform where domain XMLs larger than 1MB
were used. The define command was finished successfully. The dumpxml command
was not successful (i.e. could not encode message payload).
Enlarged message related sizes (e.g. maximum string size, message size, etc.)
to handle larger system configurations used on s390x platform.
To improve handling of the RPC message size the allocation during encode process
is changed to a dynamic one (i.e. starting with 64kB initial size and increasing
that size in steps up to 16MB if the payload data is larger).

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
This requires a custom function for remoteNodeDeviceDetachFlags,
because it is named *NodeDevice, but it goes through the hypervisor
driver rather than nodedevice driver, and so it uses privateData
instead of nodeDevicePrivateData. (It has to go through the hypervisor
driver, because that is the driver that knows about the backend drivers
that will perform the pci device assignment).
Ensure that all drivers implementing public APIs use a
naming convention for their implementation that matches
the public API name.
eg for the public API virDomainCreate make sure QEMU
uses qemuDomainCreate and not qemuDomainStart

A number of the remote procedure names did not match the
corresponding API names. For example, many lacked the
word 'CONNECT', others re-arranged the names. Update the

Currently the RPC protocol files can contain annotations after
the protocol enum eg
REMOTE_PROC_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_CHILDREN_NAMES = 247, /* autogen autogen priority:high */
This is not very extensible as the number of annotations grows.
Change it to use
/**
* @generate: both
* @priority: high

The last Viktor's effort to fix the race and memory corruption unfortunately
wasn't complete in the case the close callback was not registered in an
connection. At that time, the trail of event's that I'll describe later could
still happen and corrupt the memory or cause a crash of the client (including
the daemon in case of a p2p migration).
Consider the following prerequisities and trail of events:
Let's have a remote connection to a hypervisor that doesn't have a close
callback registered and the client is using the event loop. The crash happens in
cooperation of 2 threads. Thread E is the event loop and thread W is the worker
that does some stuff. R denotes the remote client.
1.) W - The client finishes everything and sheds the last reference on the client
2.) W - The virObject stuff invokes virConnectDispose that invokes doRemoteClose
3.) W - the remote close method invokes the REMOTE_PROC_CLOSE RPC method.
4.) W - The thread is preempted at this point.
5.) R - The remote side receives the close and closes the socket.
6.) E - poll() wakes up due to the closed socket and invokes the close callback
7.) E - The event loop is preempted right before remoteClientCloseFunc is called
8.) W - The worker now finishes, and frees the conn object.
9.) E - The remoteClientCloseFunc accesses the now-freed conn object in the
attempt to retrieve pointer for the real close callback.
10.) Kaboom, corrupted memory/segfault.
This patch tries to fix this by introducing a new object that survives the
freeing of the connection object. We can't increase the reference count on the
connection object itself or the connection would never be closed, as the
connection is closed only when the reference count reaches zero.
The new object - virConnectCloseCallbackData - is a lockable object that keeps
the pointers to the real user registered callback and ensures that the
connection callback is either not called if the connection was already freed or
that the connection isn't freed while this is being called.
remoteDeserializeTypedParameters can now be called with either
preallocated params array (size of which is announced by nparams) or it
can allocate params array according to the number of parameters received
from the server.
Like virNodeDeviceCreateXML, virNodeDeviceLookupSCSIHostByWWN
has to be treated specially when generating the RPC codes. Also
new rules are added in fixup_name to keep the name SCSIHostByWWN.
Upon successful return of virNetClientStreamEventAddCallback() the
allocated cbdata field will be freed by virNetClientStreamEventRemoveCallback()
as cbOpaque using the free function remoteStreamCallbackFree().
This patch adds a new API, virDomainOpenChannel, that uses streams to
connect to a virtio channel on a guest. This creates a secure
communication channel between a guest and a libvirt client.
This behaves the same as virDomainOpenConsole, except on channels
instead of console/serial/parallel devices.

Since the virConnect object is not locked wholely when doing
virConenctDispose, a thread can get the lock and thus might
cause the race.

The above race is caused by the eventLoop thread tries to handle
the net client event by calling the callback set by:
virNetClientSetCloseCallback(priv->client,
remoteClientCloseFunc,
conn, NULL);
I.E. remoteClientCloseFunc, which lock/unlock the virConnect object.
This patch is to fix the bug by setting the callback to NULL when
doRemoteClose.
Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically
poll all stateful drivers. Thus sucks because it requires
acquiring both the driver lock and locks on every single virtual
machine. Instead pass in a "inhibit" callback to virStateInitialize
which drivers can invoke whenever they want to inhibit shutdown
due to existance of active VMs.

This will simplify the refactoring of the ESX storage driver to support
a VMFS and an iSCSI backend.
One of the tasks the storage driver needs to do is to decide which backend
driver needs to be invoked for a given request. This approach extends
virStoragePool and virStorageVol to store extra parameters:
1. privateData: stores pointer to respective backend storage driver.
2. privateDataFreeFunc: stores cleanup function pointer.
virGetStoragePool and virGetStorageVol are modfied to accept these extra
parameters as user params. virStoragePoolDispose and virStorageVolDispose
checks for cleanup operation if available.
The private data pointer allows the ESX storage driver to store a pointer
to the used backend with each storage pool and volume. This avoids the need
to detect the correct backend in each storage driver function call.
The libvirt coding standard is to use 'function(...args...)'
instead of 'function (...args...)'. A non-trivial number of
places did not follow this rule and are fixed in this patch.

It turns out that calling virNodeGetCPUMap(conn, NULL, NULL, 0)
is both useful, and with Viktor's patches, common enough to
optimize. Since this interface hasn't been released yet, we
can change the RPC call.
A bit more background on the optimization - learning the cpu count
is a single file read (/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible), but
learning the number of online cpus can possibly trigger a file
read per cpu, depending on the age of the kernel, and all wasted
if the caller passed NULL for both arguments.

This patch adds support for SUSPEND_DISK event; both lifecycle and
separated. The support is added for QEMU, machines are changed to
PMSUSPENDED, but as QEMU sends SHUTDOWN afterwards, the state changes
to shut-off. This and much more needs to be done in order for libvirt
to work with transient devices, wake-ups etc. This patch is not
aiming for that functionality.
