There is a little easter egg in virsh: one can easily clone
an object (domain, network, ...). Just 'virsh edit' change the name
and remove <uuid>. And then, in the end when reporting success
the new name was printed out.
However, with recent edit rewrite we lost the final part and are
still printing the original name out.
When printing reedit options we make stdin raw. However,
this results in stdout being raw as well. Therefore we need
to return carriage when doing new line. Unfortunately,
'\r' cannot be part of internationalized messages hence
we must move them to formatting string which then in turn
become huge and disarranged. To solve this, a new function
is introduced which takes variable string arguments and
prepend each with "\r\n" just before printing.
The attach-disk command used with parameter --cache created an invalid
XML snippet as the beginning of the <driver> element was not printed
when used solely with --cache and no other attribute to driver.
commit 52d064f42d added
VIR_NETWORK_XML_INACTIVE in order to allow suppressing the
auto-generated list of VFs in network definitions, and a --inactive
flag to virsh net-dumpxml to take advantage of the flag. However, it
missed out on two opportunities:
1) Use INACTIVE to get the current config of the network as it
exists on disk, rather than the currently active config.
2) Add INACTIVE to the flags used for the virsh net-edit command, so
that it won't include the forward-pool interfaces that were
autogenerated, and so that a re-edit of the network prior to
restarting it will show any other edits made since the last restart
of the network. (prior to this patch, if you edited a network a 2nd
time without restarting, all of the previous edits would magically
disappear).
In order to fit with the new #define-based generic edit function in
virsh.c, a new function vshNetworkGetXMLDesc() was added. This
function first tries to call virNetworkGetXMLDesc with the INACTIVE
flag added, then retries without if the first attempt fails (in the
manner expected when the server doesn't support it).
Expose the recent API additions in virsh. Borrows ideas from 'dominfo'
for the general type of information to display.

Requiring the user to pass in parallel arrays of names and parents
is annoying; it means that you can't qsort one of the arrays without
invalidating the ordering of the other. By refactoring this function
to use callbacks, we isolate the layout to be independent of the
printing, and a future patch can exploit that to improve layout.

requiring a char** array.
(vshTreeArrayLookup): New helper function.
(vshTreePrint, cmdNodeListDevices, cmdSnapshotList): Update callers.
I am not a fan of fixed-width buffers. All it takes is a
linear chain of more than 100 snapshots to mess up 'virsh
snapshot-list --tree'. Now that virBuffer is more powerful,
we might as well exploit its power.

Commits 51082301, 16d7b39, and 521cc447 introduced support for
'virsh snapshot-list --from' when talking to a server older than
0.9.5, but broke support for plain 'virsh snapshot-list' for the
same old server in the process. Because the code is not properly
gated, we end up with a SIGSEGV during a strcmp with a NULL argument.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotList): Don't waste time on fallbacks
when --from is not present.
If you compile without NLS support, where _() is a no-op macro,
then we end up passing a string literal to a char*, provoking:

* tools/virsh-edit.c: Be const-safe.
If users *-edit but make a mistake in XML all changes are
permanently lost. However, if virsh is not running within
a script we can ask user if he wants to re-edit the file
and correct the mistakes.
Currently, we either generate some cmd*Edit commands (cmdPoolEdit
and cmdNetworkEdit) via sed script or copy the body of cmdEdit
(e.g. cmdInterfaceEdit, cmdNWFilterEdit, etc.). This fact makes
it harder to implement any new feature to our editing system.
Therefore switch to new implementation - define macros to:
- dump XML (EDIT_GET_XML)
- take an action if XML wasn't changed,
usually just vshPrint() (EDIT_NOT_CHANGED)
- define new object (EDIT_DEFINE) - the edited XML is in @doc_edited
- free object defined by EDIT_DEFINE (EDIT_FREE)
and #include "virsh-edit.c"
strncpy is generally evil - it runs the risk of missing NUL
termination, and more often than not wastes time zeroing way
more bytes than strictly necessary. We've avoided this evil
in our virStrncpy wrapper, except for places where we forgot
to use the wrapper; meanwhile, we have also added an even
higher layer wrapper for setting virTypedParameter values.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdMemtune, cmdBlkdeviotune): Use modern API.
* cfg.mk (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_prohibit_strncpy): Tighten.

This patch adds support for a new storage backend with RBD support.
RBD is the RADOS Block Device and is part of the Ceph distributed storage
system.
It comes in two flavours: Qemu-RBD and Kernel RBD, this storage backend only
supports Qemu-RBD, thus limiting the use of this storage driver to Qemu only.
To function this backend relies on librbd and librados being present on the
local system.
The backend also supports Cephx authentication for safe authentication with
the Ceph cluster.
For storing credentials it uses the built-in secret mechanism of libvirt.

Bug introduced via commit v0.9.4-260-g35d52b5.
The recent push to use correct scaling terms (kB for 1000, KiB for
1024 - such as commit 9dfdead) missed some places in virsh.
* tools/virsh.c (prettyCapacity, cmdDominfo, cmdFreecell)
(cmdNodeinfo, cmdNodeMemStats, cmdMigrateSetMaxSpeed)
(cmdBlockCopy, cmdBlockPull, cmdBlockJob): Use KiB, not kB, when
referring to multiples of 1024.
* tests/virshtest.c: Update expected output to match.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=817244 mentions that
unlike most other tools, where --help or --version prevent all
further parsing of all later options, virsh was strange in that
--version stopped parsing but --help tried to plow on to the end.
There was no rationale for this original implementation (since
2005!), so I think we can safely conform to common usage patterns.
* tools/virsh.c (main): Drop useless 'help' variable.
Rather than further overloading 'blockpull', I decided to create a
new virsh command to expose the new flags of virDomainBlockRebase.
Blocking until the command completes naturally is pointless, since
the block copy job is intended to run indefinitely. Instead, I
made the command support three --wait modes: by default, it runs until
mirroring is started; with --pivot, it pivots as soon as mirroring
is started; and with --finish, it aborts (for a clean copy) as
soon as mirroring is started.
* tools/virsh.c (VSH_CMD_BLOCK_JOB_COPY): New mode.
(blockJobImpl): Support new flags.
(cmdBlockCopy): New command.
(cmdBlockJob): Support new job info, new abort flag.
* tools/virsh.pod (blockcopy, blockjob): Document the new command
and flags.
We were forgetting to check errno for overflow.
* tools/virsh.c (get_integer_keycode, vshCommandOptInt)
(vshCommandOptUInt, vshCommandOptUL, vshCommandOptLongLong)
(vshCommandOptULongLong): Rewrite to be safer.
I'm tired of shell-scripting to wait for completion of a block pull,
when virsh can be taught to do the same. I couldn't quite reuse
vshWatchJob, as this is not a case of a long-running command where
a second thread must be used to probe job status (at least, not unless
I make virsh start doing blocking waits for an event to fire), but it
served as inspiration for my simpler single-threaded loop. There is
up to a half-second delay between sending SIGINT and the job being
aborted, but I didn't think it worth the complexity of a second thread
and use of poll() just to minimize that delay.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdBlockPull): Add new options to wait for
completion.
(blockJobImpl): Add argument.
(cmdBlockJob): Adjust caller.
* tools/virsh.pod (blockjob): Document new mode.
Block job cancellation can take a while. Now that upstream qemu 1.1
has asynchronous block cancellation, we want to expose that to the user.
Therefore, the following updates are made to the virDomainBlockJob API:
A new block job event type VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED is managed by
libvirt. Regardless of the flags used with virDomainBlockJobAbort, this
event will be raised: 1. when using synchronous block_job_cancel (the
event will be synthesized by libvirt), and 2. whenever it is received
from qemu (via asynchronous block-job-cancel). Note that the event
may be detected by libvirt even before the virDomainBlockJobAbort
completes (always true when it is synthesized, but also possible if
cancellation was fast).
A new extension flag VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC is added to the
virDomainBlockJobAbort API. When enabled, this function will allow
(but not require) asynchronous operation (ie, it returns as soon as
possible, which might be before the job has actually been canceled).
When the API is used in this mode, it is the responsibility of the
caller to wait for a VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_CANCELED event or poll via
the virDomainGetBlockJobInfo API to check the cancellation status.
This patch also exposes the new flag through virsh, and makes virsh
slightly easier to use (--async implies --abort, and lack of any options
implies --info), although it leaves the qemu implementation for later
patches.

This patch cleans up variables used to store boolean command flags that
are inquired by vshCommandOptBool to use the bool data type instead of
an integer.
Additionally this patch cleans up flag variables that are inferred from
existing flags.
The documentation for the flag doesn't clearly state that the flag only
enhances the output and the user needs to specify other flags to list
inactive domains, that are enhanced by this flag.
Currently, we put no strains on escape sequence possibly leaving users
with console that cannot be terminated. However, not all ASCII
characters can be used as escape sequence. Only those falling in

Found when attempting to build on Fedora 17 alpha with:
./autogen.sh --system --enable-compile-warnings=error
(this same build command works without problem on Fedora 16). All
other struct initializers for this struct have the extra field filled
in (almost always to 0), so the two errant ones were fixed by adding
in the extra 0 field.
Return statements with parameter enclosed in parentheses were modified
and parentheses were removed. The whole change was scripted, here is how:
List of files was obtained using this command:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$'
Found files were modified with this command:
sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Then checked for nonsense.
The whole command looks like this:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$' | xargs sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Right now, it is appallingly easy to cause qemu disk snapshots
to alter a domain then fail; for example, by requesting a two-disk
snapshot where the second disk name resides on read-only storage.
In this failure scenario, libvirt reports failure, but modifies
the live domain XML in-place to record that the first disk snapshot
was taken; and places a difficult burden on the management app
to grab the XML and reparse it to see which disks, if any, were
altered by the partial snapshot.
This patch adds a new flag where implementations can request that
the hypervisor make snapshots atomically; either no changes to
XML occur, or all disks were altered as a group. If you request
the flag, you either get outright failure up front, or you take
advantage of hypervisor abilities to make an atomic snapshot. Of
course, drivers should prefer the atomic means even without the
flag explicitly requested.
There's no way to make snapshots 100% bulletproof - even if the
hypervisor does it perfectly atomic, we could run out of memory
during the followup tasks of updating our in-memory XML, and report
a failure. However, these sorts of catastrophic failures are rare
and unlikely, and it is still nicer to know that either all
snapshots happened or none of them, as that is an easier state to
recover from.

This introduces a new running reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP,
and new suspend event type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
While a wakeup event is emitted, the domain which entered into
VIR_DOMAIN_PMSUSPENDED will be transferred to "running"
with reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP, and a new domain lifecycle
event emitted with type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
This introduces a new domain state pmsuspended to represent
the domain which has been suspended by guest power management,
e.g. (entered itno s3 state). Because a "running" state could
be confused in this case, one will see the guest is paused
actually while playing. And state "paused" is for the domain
which was paused by virDomainSuspend.
virsh.pod had several instances in which it referred to "the

With this patch, it's possible to shut down guests in parallel. Parallel

To enable parallel startup set the START_DELAY to 0.
Parallel shutdown has a configurable parameter PARALLEL_SHUTDOWN that

this feature changes the semantics of SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT parameter that is
applied as a cumulative timeout to shutdown all guests on a URI.
No thanks to 64-bit windows, with 64-bit pid_t, we have to avoid
constructs like 'int pid'. Our API in libvirt-qemu cannot be
changed without breaking ABI; but then again, libvirt-qemu can
only be used on systems that support UNIX sockets, which rules
out Windows (even if qemu could be compiled there) - so for all
points on the call chain that interact with this API decision,
we require a different variable name to make it clear that we
audited the use for safety.

This patch adds support for the newly introduced
VIR_DOMAIN_CONSOLE_FORCE and VIR_DOMAIN_CONSOLE_SAFE flags. The console
command now has an optional parameter --force that specifies that the
user wants to forcibly interrupt an ongoing console session and create
a new one. Flag --safe requests that the console should be opened only
if the hypervisor driver supports safe console handling.
The behaviour to this point was that the daemon opened two streams to
the console, that competed for data from the pipe, and the result was
that both of the consoles ended up scrambled.
This patch doesn't modify operation of other commands dealing with
console connections (start, create) as those open connections to newly

for the console and steal it.

- We shouldn't rely on VIR_ERROR for this case
- The prompt makes it look like we still connected
because we didn't flush stdout.

This patch adds new options to the "virsh list" command enabling
filtering of persistent and transient domains along with the option to
print only UUIDs or names of domains instead of printing the table.
Option --name prints domain names (one per line) instead of the default
table. Similarly --uuid prints domain's UUID. The option --table is
an alias for the default behavior.
Aditionally --persistent and/or --transient may be specified to filter
the output of domains.
Commit fad5cd2108 introduced option to
display domain's title in the list command output. There was a mistake
in the virsh man page example for this command stating --note instead of
--title.
When blkdeviotune was first committed in 0.9.8, we had the limitation
that setting one value reset all others. But bytes and iops should
be relatively independent. Furthermore, setting tuning values on
a live domain followed by dumpxml did not output the new settings.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDiskPathToAlias): Add parameter, and
update callers.
(qemuDomainSetBlockIoTune): Don't lose previous unrelated
settings. Make live changes reflect to dumpxml output.
* tools/virsh.pod (blkdeviotune): Update documentation.
Any device XML doesn't use the same order as libvirt generates, or
uses decimal for attributes like "slot" of "<address>" will cause
device detaching to fail, as virsh compares the XML simply earlier
in strict manner before internal parsing.
This is regression introduced by ea7182c.
Commit fad5cd2108 introduces a new flag
that allows to show domain's title with domains. This commit introduced
resource leak while listing inactive domains with titles.
Detected by valgrind. the codes are allocating 0 bytes memory to variable
cpumap by vshCalloc function, and then the function VIR_USE_CPU will access

To assist people in verifying that their host is operating in an
optimal manner, provide a 'virt-host-validate' command. For each
type of hypervisor, it will check any pre-requisites, or other
good recommendations and report what's working & what is not.
eg
# virt-host-validate
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/kvm : FAIL (Check that the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled virtualization)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost : WARN (Load the 'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun : PASS
LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26 : PASS
This warns people if they have vmx/svm, but don't have /dev/kvm. It
also warns about missing /dev/vhost net.
Currently, we support only filling a volume with zeroes on wiping.
However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been
written, therefore we should support other wiping algorithms.

Although this is a public API break, it only affects users that
were compiling against *_LAST values, and can be trivially
worked around without impacting compilation against older
headers, by the user defining VIR_ENUM_SENTINELS before using
libvirt.h. It is not an ABI break, since enum values do not
appear as .so entry points. Meanwhile, it prevents users from
using non-stable enum values without explicitly acknowledging
the risk of doing so.

Disk "type" and "device" are generally interesting stuff the
user may want to known, too. To not break any scripts which
parsed the output field, a new option "--details" is introduced
to output the two introduced fields.
Domain IDs are at least 16 bits for most hypervisors, theoretically
event 32-bits. 3 characters is clearly too small an alignment.
Increase alignment to 5 characters to allow 16-bit domain IDs to
display cleanly. Commonly seen with LXC where domain IDs are the
process IDs by default. Also increase the 'name' field from 20
to 30 characters to cope with longer guest names which are quite
common
Just like command "domblklist", the command extracts "type",
"source", "target", "model", and "MAC" of all virtual interfaces
from domain XML (live or persistent).

When disk snapshots were first implemented, libvirt blindly refused
to allow an external snapshot destination that already exists, since
qemu will blindly overwrite the contents of that file during the
snapshot_blkdev monitor command, and we don't like a default of
data loss by default. But VDSM has a scenario where NFS permissions
are intentionally set so that the destination file can only be
created by the management machine, and not the machine where the
guest is running, so that libvirt will necessarily see the destination
file already existing; adding a flag will allow VDSM to force the file
reuse without libvirt complaining of possible data loss.

Add an option for virsh undefine command, to remove associated storage
volumes while undefining a domain. This patch allows the user to remove
associated (libvirt managed ) storage volumes while undefining a domain.
The new option --storage for the undefine command takes a string
argument that consists of comma separated list of target or source path
of volumes to be undefined. Volumes are removed after the domain has
been successfully undefined,
If a volume is not part of a storage pool, the user is warned to remove
the volume in question himself.
Option --wipe-storage may be specified along with this, that ensures
the image is wiped before removing.
Option --remove-all-storage enables the user to remove all storage. The
name is chosen long as the users should be aware what they're about to
do.

Currently virsh supports only ^] as escape character for console.
However, some users might want to use something else. This patch
creates such ability by specifying '-e' switch on virsh command
line.
Not only was ctl->quit accessed without a mutex but unfortunately,
virEventAddTimeout only interrupts the poll when event loop is running
so the hack needs to add a timeout that will make next poll return
immediately without blocking.
Prior to this patch, for a running dom, the commands:
$ virsh blkiotune dom --device-weights /dev/sda,502,/dev/sdb,498
$ virsh blkiotune dom --device-weights /dev/sda,503
$ virsh blkiotune dom
weight : 500
device_weight : /dev/sda,503
claim that /dev/sdb no longer has a non-default weight, but
directly querying cgroups says otherwise:
$ cat /cgroup/blkio/libvirt/qemu/dom/blkio.weight_device
8:0 503
8:16 498
After this patch, an explicit 0 is required to remove a device path
from the XML, and omitting a device path that was previously
specified leaves that device path untouched in the XML, to match
cgroups behavior.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (parseBlkioWeightDeviceStr): Rename...
(qemuDomainParseDeviceWeightStr): ...and use correct type.
(qemuDomainSetBlkioParameters): After parsing string, modify

This adds per-device weights to <blkiotune>. Note that the
cgroups implementation only supports weights per block device,
and not per-file within the device; hence this option must be
global to the domain definition rather than tied to individual
<devices>/<disk> entries:
<domain ...>
<blkiotune>
<device>
<path>/path/to/block</path>
<weight>1000</weight>
</device>
</blkiotune>
..
This patch also adds a parameter --device-weights to virsh command
blkiotune for setting/getting blkiotune.weight_device for any
hypervisor that supports it. All <device> entries under
<blkiotune> are concatenated into a single string attribute under
virDomain{Get,Set}BlkioParameters, named "device_weight".

If both nodes do not have any children, we pass zero to
virBitmapAlloc which returns NULL. In turn we report OOM error
and return false (meaning nodes are different). This is not true.
Up to now users have to give a full XML description on input when
device-detaching. If they omitted something it lead to unclear
error messages (like generated MAC wasn't found, etc.).
With this patch users can specify only those information which
specify one device sufficiently precise. Remaining information is
completed from domain.
This patch adds support for a systemd init service for libvirtd
and libvirt-guests. The libvirtd.service is *not* written to use
socket activation, since we want libvirtd to start on boot so it
can do guest auto-start.
The libvirt-guests.service is pretty lame, just exec'ing the
original init script for now. Ideally we would factor out the
functionality, into some shared tool.
Instead of
./configure --with-init-script=redhat
You can now do
./configure --with-init-script=systemd
Or better still:
./configure --with-init-script=systemd+redhat
We can also now support install of the upstart init script
* configure.ac: Add systemd, and systemd+redhat options to
--with-init-script option
* daemon/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* daemon/libvirtd.sysconf: Add note about unused env variable
with systemd
* daemon/libvirtd.service.in: libvirtd systemd service unit
* libvirt.spec.in: Add scripts to installing systemd services
and migrating from legacy init scripts

One of the top questions by libvirt users is how to create a host
bridge device so that guests can be directly on the physical
network. There are several example documents that explain how to do
this manually, but following them often results in confusion and
failure. virt-manager does a good job of creating a bridge based on an
existing network device, but not everyone wants to use virt-manager.
This patch adds a new command, iface-bridge that makes it just about
as simple as possible to create a new bridge device based on an
existing ethernet/vlan/bond device (including associating IP
configuration with the bridge rather than the now-attached device),
and start that new bridge up ready for action, eg:
virsh iface-bridge eth0 br0
For symmetry's sake, it also adds a command to remove a device from a
bridge, restoring the IP config to the now-unattached device:
virsh iface-unbridge br0
(I had a short debate about whether to do "iface-unbridge eth0"
instead, but that would involve searching through all bridge devices
for the one that contained eth0, which seems like a bit too much
trouble).
NOTE: These two commands require that the netcf library be available
on the host. Hopefully this will provide some extra incentive for
people using suse, debian, ubuntu, and other similar systems to polish
up (and push downstream) the ports to those distros recently pushed to
the upstream netcf repo by Dan Berrange. Anyone interested in helping
with that effort in any way should join the netcf-devel mailing list
(subscription info at
https://fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/netcf-devel)
During creation of the bridge, it's possible to specify whether or not
the STP protocol should be started up on the bridge and, if so, how
many seconds the bridge should squelch traffic from newly added
devices while learning new topology (defaults are stp='on' and
delay='0', which seems to usually work best for bridges used in the
context of libvirt guests).
There is also an option to not immediately start the bridge (and a
similar option to not immediately start the un-attached device after
destroying the bridge. Default is to start the new device, because in
the case of iface-unbridge not starting is strongly discouraged as it
will leave the system with no network connectivity on that interface
(because it's necessary to destroy/undefine the bridge device before
the unattached device can be defined), and it seemed better to make
the option for iface-bridge behave consistently.
NOTE TO THOSE TRYING THESE COMMANDS FOR THE FIRST TIME: to guard
against any "unexpected" change to configuration, it is advisable to
issue an "virsh iface-begin" command before starting any interface
config changes, and "virsh iface-commit" only after you've verified
that everything is working as you expect. If something goes wrong,
you can always run "virsh iface-rollback" or reboot the system (which
should automatically do iface-rollback).
Aside from adding the code for these two functions, and the two
entries into the command table, the only other change to virsh.c was
to add the option name to vshCommandOptInterfaceBy(), because the
iface-unbridge command names its interface option as "bridge".
virsh.pod has also been updated with short descriptions of these two
new commands.

If vol-create-from is failed due to 'input volume not found',
virsh outputs like this:
$ sudo virsh vol-create-from testpool test-vol.xml test.img
error: failed to get vol 'test.img', specifying --pool might help
error: Storage volume not found: no storage vol with matching path
However, '--pool' is incorrect because it is already specified as
second argument ('testpool' in this case). It should be "--inputpool".
The patch fixes this by using pooloptname, which will be "inputpool"
in this case and "pool" in other cases, as error message.
We have a new vol type "dir" in addition to "file" and "block", but
virsh doesn't know it. Fix it.
Additionally, the patch lets virsh output "unknown" if not matched
any of them.
Clarify some of the effects of managed passthrough <hostdev> devices;
with recent changes (commit d093547), a nodedev-reattach is only needed

hood when using the gui to hotplug a hostdev device).

Rather than having to do:
$ virsh snapshot-revert dom $(virsh snapshot-current dom --name)
I thought it would be nice to do:
$ virsh snapshot-revert dom --current
I didn't add 'virsh snapshot-dumpxml --current' since we already have
'virsh snapshot-current' for the same task. snapshot-list accepted
a name but did not require it, and that remains the case, with
--current serving in place of that name. For all other commands,
name used to be required, and can now be replaced by --current;
I intentionally made it so that omitting both --current and a name
is an error (having the absence of a name imply --current seems
just a bit too magic, so --current must be explicit). I also had
to keep snapshot-edit backwards-compatible, as the only command
that already had a --current argument alongside a name, which still
works to both edit a named snapshot and make it current.

Given a list of snapshots and their parents, finding all descendants
requires a hairy traversal. This code is O(n^3); it could maybe be
made to scale O(n^2) with the use of a hash table, but that costs more
memory. Hopefully there aren't too many people with a hierarchy
so large as to approach REMOTE_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_NAMES_MAX (1024).
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotList): Add final fallback.
Iterating over one level of children requires parsing all snapshots
and their parents; a bit of code shuffling makes it pretty easy
to do this as well.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotList): Add another fallback.
Emulating --from requires grabbing the entire list of snapshots
and their parents, and recursively iterating over the list from
the point of interest - but we already do that for --tree. This

I was a bit surprised that 'virsh snapshot-edit dom name' silently
allowed me to clone things, while still telling me the old name,
especially since other commands like 'virsh edit dom' reject rename
attempts (*). This fixes things to be more explicit (**).
(*) Technically, 'virsh edit dom' relies on virDomainDefineXML
behavior, which rejects attempts to mix a new name with existing
uuid or new uuid with existing name, but you can create a new
domain by changing both uuid and name. On the other hand, while
snapshot-edit --clone is a true clone, creating a new domain
would also have to decide whether to clone snapshot metadata,
managed save, and any other secondary data related to the domain.
Domain renames are not trivial either.
(**) Renaming or creating a clone is still a risky proposition -
for offline snapshots and system checkpoints, if the new name
does not match an actual name recorded in the qcow2 internal
snapshots, then you cannot revert to the new checkpoint. But it
is assumed that anyone using the new virsh flags knows what they
are doing, and can deal with the fallout caused by a rename/clone;
that is, we can't completely prevent a user from shooting
themselves in the foot, so much as we are making the default
action less risky.

It was impossible for 'virsh snapshot-current dom name' to set name
as the current snapshot, if name is a disk-only snapshot.
Using strstr rather than full-blown xml parsing is safe, since the
xml is assumed to be well-formed coming from libvirtd rather than
arbitrary text coming from the user.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSnapshotCurrent, cmdSnapshotEdit): Pass
disk_only flag when redefining a disk snapshot.
Although reverting to a snapshot is a form of data loss, this is
normally expected. However, there are two cases where additional
surprises (failure to run the reverted state, or a break in
connectivity to the domain) can come into play. Requiring extra
acknowledgment in these cases will make it less likely that
someone can get into an unrecoverable state due to a default revert.
Also create a new error code, so users can distinguish when forcing

Previously, virsh 'snapshot-parent' and 'snapshot-current' were
completely silent in the case where the code conclusively proved
there was no parent or current snapshot, but differed in exit
status; this silence caused some confusion on whether the commands
worked. Furthermore, commit d1be48f introduced a regression where
snapshot-parent would leak output about an unknown function, but
only on the first attempt, when talking to an older server that
lacks virDomainSnapshotGetParent. This changes things to consistenly
report an error message and exit with status 1 when no snapshot
exists, and to avoid leaking unknown function warnings when using
fallbacks.
