We still default to bhyveloader(1) if no explicit bootloader
configuration is supplied in the domain.
If the /domain/bootloader looks like grub-bhyve and the user doesn't
supply /domain/bootloader_args, we make an intelligent guess and try
chainloading the first partition on the disk (or a CD if one exists,
under the assumption that for a VM a CD is likely an install source).
Caveat: Assumes the HDD boots from the msdos1 partition. I think this is
a pretty reasonable assumption for a VM. (DrvBhyve with Bhyveload
already assumes that the first disk should be booted.)
I've tested both HDD and CD boot and they seem to work.
Modify the structure _virDomainBlockIoTuneInfo to support these the new

CPU numa topology implicitly allows memory specification in 'KiB'.
Enabling this to accept the 'unit' in which memory needs to be specified.
This now allows users to specify memory in units of choice, and
lists the same in 'KiB' -- just like other 'memory' elements in XML.
<numa>
<cell cpus='0-3' memory='1024' unit='MiB' />
<cell cpus='4-7' memory='1024' unit='MiB' />
</numa>
Also augment test cases to correctly model NUMA memory specification.
This adds the tag 'unit="KiB"' for memory attribute in NUMA cells.

To prepare for introducing a single global driver, rename the
virDriver struct to virHypervisorDriver and the registration
API to virRegisterHypervisorDriver()
These tools have been rewritten upstream, so you don't need to link to
the old tools, link to the new ones and mention they are part of
libguestfs.
Also remove the link to "Poor man's P2V". There's no real reason to
use that technique any longer since the rewritten tools are simple,
fast and highly capable.
This new attribute will control whether or not libvirt will pay
attention to guest notifications about changes to network device mac
addresses and receive filters. The default for this is 'no' (for
security reasons). If it is set to 'yes' *and* the specified device
model and connection support it (currently only macvtap+virtio) then
libvirt will watch for NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED events, and when it
receives one, it will issue a query-rx-filter command, retrieve the
result, and modify the host-side macvtap interface's mac address and
unicast/multicast filters accordingly.
The functionality behind this attribute will be in a later patch. This
patch merely adds the attribute to the top-level of a domain's
<interface> as well as to <network> and <portgroup>, and adds
documentation and schema/xml2xml tests. Rather than adding even more
test files, I've just added the net attribute in various applicable
places of existing test files.
This patch adds parsing/formatting code as well as documentation for
shared memory devices. This will currently be only accessible in QEMU
using it's ivshmem device, but is designed as generic as possible to
allow future expansion for other hypervisors.
In the devices section in the domain XML users may specify:
- For shmem device using a server:
<shmem name='shmem0'>
<server path='/tmp/socket-ivshmem0'/>
<size unit='M'>32</size>
<msi vectors='32' ioeventfd='on'/>
</shmem>
- For ivshmem device not using an ivshmem server:
<shmem name='shmem1'>
<size unit='M'>32</size>
</shmem>
Most of the configuration is made optional so it also allows
specifications like:
<shmem name='shmem1/>
<shmem name='shmem2'>
<server/>
</shmem>

According to our documentation logical pool supports formats 'auto' and
'lvm2'. However, in storage_conf.c we previously defined storage pool
formats: unknown, lvm2. Due to backward compatibility reasons
we must continue refer to pool format type 'unknown' instead of 'auto'.

which control the respective host_ and guest_ properties

- docs/drvbhyve.html.in: add an example with ZFS pools
- Provide an implementation for buildPool and deletePool operations
for the ZFS storage backend.
- Add VIR_STORAGE_POOL_SOURCE_DEVICE flag to ZFS pool poolOptions
as now we can specify devices to build pool from
- storagepool.rng: add an optional 'sourceinfodev' to 'sourcezfs' and
add an optional 'target' to 'poolzfs' entity
- Add a couple of tests to storagepoolxml2xmltest
