The balloon device is automatically added to qemu guests if supported,
but it may be useful to desactivate it. The simplest to not change the
existing behaviour is to allow
<memballoon type="none"/>
as an extra option to desactivate it (it is automatically added if the
memballoon construct is missing for the domain).
The following simple patch just adds the extra option and does not
change the default behaviour but avoid creating a balloon device if
type="none" is used.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: add the extra type attribute value
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the extra enum
value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: if enum is NONE, don't activate the device,
i.e. don't pass the args to qemu/kvm

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/622515 - When hot-unplugging CPUs,
libvirt failed to start a guest that had been pinned to CPUs that
were still online.
Tested on a dual-core laptop, where I also discovered that, per
http://www.cyberciti.biz/files/linux-kernel/Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt,
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online does not exist on systems where it
cannot be hot-unplugged.
* src/nodeinfo.c (linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate): Ignore CPUs that are
currently offline. Detect readdir failure.
(parse_socket): Move guts...
(get_cpu_value): ...to new function, shared with...
(cpu_online): New function.
device_del command is not synchronous for PCI devices, it merely asks
the guest to release the device and returns. If the host wants to use
that device before the guest actually releases it, we are in big
trouble. To avoid this, we already added a loop which waits up to 10
seconds until the device is actually released before we do anything else
with that device. But we only added this loop for managed PCI devices
before we try reattach them back to the host.
However, we need to wait even for non-managed devices. We don't reattach
them automatically, but we still want to prevent the host from using it.
This was revealed thanks to sVirt: when we relabel sysfs files
corresponding to the PCI device before the guest finished releasing the
device, qemu is no longer allowed to access those files and if it wants
(as a result of guest's request) to write anything to them, it just
exits, which kills the guest.
This is not a proper fix and needs some further work both on libvirt and
qemu side in the future.

src/phyp/phyp_driver.c:phypListDomainsGeneric was crashing due to a buffer
overflow if any line returned from virRun wasn't <=10 characters.
Since virStrToLong_i recognizes any non-numeric as a terminator (not
just NULL), there actually is no need to copy the number into a
separate string anyway, so this patch eliminates that copy, the fixed
length buffer, and therefore the potential to overflow.
This change also provided the oppurtunity to eliminate the character
counting loop, instead using the return from virStrToLong_i to point
past the end of the number, then simply skip the \n to get to the

Patch version revamped by Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> of Jiri
Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com> original patch
When attaching a PCI device which doesn't explicitly set its PCI
address, libvirt allocates the address automatically. The problem is
that when checking which PCI address is unused, we only check for those
with slot number higher than the highest slot number ever used.
Thus attaching/detaching such device several times in a row (31 is the
theoretical limit, less then 30 tries are enough in practise) makes any
further device attachment fail. Furthermore, attaching a device with
predefined PCI address to 0:0:31 immediately forbids attachment of any
PCI device without explicit address.
This patch changes the logic so that we always check all PCI addresses
before we say there is no PCI address available.
Modifications from v1: revert back to remembering the last slot
reserved, but allow wraparound to not be limited by the end.
In this way, slots are still assigned in the same order as
before the patch, rather than filling in the gaps closest to
0 and risking making windows guests mad.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: fix pci reservation code to do a round-robbin
check of all available PCI splot availability before failing.
Don't rely on summary.url anymore, because its value is different
between an esx:// and vpx:// connection. Use host.mountInfo.path
instead.
Don't fallback to lookup by UUID (actually lookup by absolute path)
in esxVI_LookupDatastoreByName when lookup by name fails. Add a
seperate function for this: esxVI_LookupDatastoreByAbsolutePath
Now a vpx:// connection has an explicitly specified host. This
allows to enabled several functions for a vpx:// connection
again, like host UUID, hostname, general node info, max vCPU
count, free memory, migration and defining new domains.
Lookup datacenter, compute resource, resource pool and host
system once and cache them. This simplifies the rest of the
code and reduces overall HTTP(S) traffic a bit.
esx:// and vpx:// can be mixed freely for a migration.
Ensure that migration source and destination refer to the
same vCenter. Also directly encode the resource pool and
host system object IDs into the migration URI in the prepare
function. Then directly build managed object references in
the perform function instead of re-looking up already known
information.
This patch attempts to take advantage of a newly added netfilter
module to correct for a problem with some guest DHCP client
implementations when used in conjunction with a DHCP server run on the
host systems with packet checksum offloading enabled.
The problem is that, when the guest uses a RAW socket to read the DHCP
response packets, the checksum hasn't yet been fixed by the IP stack,
so it is incorrect.
The fix implemented here is to add a rule to the POSTROUTING chain of
the mangle table in iptables that fixes up the checksum for packets on
the virtual network's bridge that are destined for the bootpc port (ie
"dhcpc", ie port 68) port on the guest.
Only very new versions of iptables will have this support (it will be
in the next upstream release), so a failure to add this rule only
results in a warning message. The iptables patch is here:
http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/58525/
A corresponding kernel module patch is also required (the backend of
the iptables patch) and that will be in the next release of the
kernel.
When trying to assign a PCI device to a guest, we have
to check that all bridges upstream of that device support
ACS. That means that we have to find the parent bridge of
the current device, check for ACS, then find the parent bridge
of that device, check for ACS, etc. As it currently stands,
the code to do this iterates through all PCI devices on the
system, looking for a device that has a range of busses that
included the current device's bus.
That check is not restrictive enough, though. Depending on
how we iterated through the list of PCI devices, we could first
find the *topmost* bridge in the system; since it necessarily had
a range of busses including the current device's bus, we
would only ever check the topmost bridge, and not check
any of the intermediate bridges.
Note that this also caused a fairly serious bug in the
secondary bus reset code, where we could erroneously
find and reset the topmost bus instead of the inner bus.
This patch changes pciGetParentDevice() so that it first
checks if a bridge device's secondary bus exactly matches
the bus of the device we are looking for. If it does, we've
found the correct parent bridge and we are done. If it does not,
then we check to see if this bridge device's busses *include* the
bus of the device we care about. If so, we mark this bridge device
as best, and go on. If we later find another bridge device whose
busses include this device, but is more restrictive, then we
free up the previous best and mark the new one as best. This
algorithm ensures that in the normal case we find the direct
parent, but in the case that the parent bridge secondary bus
is not exactly the same as the device, we still find the
correct bridge.
This patch was tested by me on a 4-port NIC with a
bridge without ACS (where assignment failed), a 4-port
NIC with a bridge with ACS (where assignment succeeded),
and a 2-port NIC with no bridges (where assignment
succeeded).

esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion can take a UUID to lookup the
corresponding domain and check if the current task for it
is blocked by a question. It calls another function to do
this: esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion looks up
the VirtualMachine and checks for a question. If there is
a question it calls esxVI_HandleVirtualMachineQuestion to
handle it.
If there was no question or it has been answered the call
to esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion returns 0.
If any error occurred during the lookup and answering
process -1 is returned. The problem with this is, that -1
is also returned when there was no error but the question
could not be answered. So esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion cannot
distinguish between this two situations and reports that a
question is blocking the task even when there was actually
another problem.
This inherent problem didn't surface until vSphere 4.1 when
you try to define a new domain. The driver tries to lookup
the domain that is just in the process of being registered.
There seems to be some kind of race condition and the driver
manages to issue a lookup command before the ESX server was
able to register the domain. This used to work before.
Due to the return value problem described above the driver
reported a false error message in that case.
To solve this esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion now takes an
additional occurrence parameter that describes whether or
not to expect the domain to be existent. Also add a new
parameter to esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion
that allows to distinguish if the call returned -1 because
of an actual error or because the question could not be
answered.

When doing a PCI secondary bus reset, we must be sure that there are no
active devices on the same bus segment. The active device tracking is
designed to only track host devices that are active in use by guests.
This ignores host devices that are actively in use by the host. So the
current logic will reset host devices.

A Linux software bridge will assume the MAC address of the enslaved
interface with the numerically lowest MAC addr. When the bridge
changes MAC address there is a period of network blackout, so a
change should be avoided. The kernel gives TAP devices a completely
random MAC address. Occassionally the random TAP device MAC is lower
than that of the physical interface (eth0, eth1etc) that is enslaved,
causing the bridge to change its MAC.
This change sets an explicit MAC address for all TAP devices created
using the configured MAC from the XML, but with the high byte set
to 0xFE. This should ensure TAP device MACs are higher than any
physical interface MAC.

One error exit in virStorageBackendCreateBlockFrom was setting the
return value to errno. The convention for volume build functions is to
return 0 on success or -1 on failure. Not only was it not necessary to
set the return value (it defaults to -1, and is set to 0 when
everything has been successfully completed), in the case that some
caller were checking for < 0 rather than != 0, they would incorrectly
believe that it completed successfully.
virDirCreate also previously returned 0 on success and errno on
failure. This makes it fit the recommended convention of returning 0
on success, -errno (ie a negative number) on failure.
Previously virStorageBackendCopyToFD would simply return -1 on
error. This made the error return from one of its callers inconsistent
(createRawFileOpHook is supposed to return -errno, but if
virStorageBackendCopyToFD failed, createRawFileOpHook would just
return -1). Since there is a useful errno in every case of error
return from virStorageBackendCopyToFD, and since the other uses of
that function ignore the return code (beyond simply checking to see if
it is < 0), this is a safe change.
virFileOperation previously returned 0 on success, or the value of
errno on failure. Although there are other functions in libvirt that
use this convention, the preferred (and more common) convention is to
return 0 on success and -errno (or simply -1 in some cases) on
failure. This way the check for failure is always (ret < 0).
* src/util/util.c - change virFileOperation and virFileOperationNoFork to
return -errno on failure.
* src/storage/storage_backend.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
- change the hook functions passed to virFileOperation to return
-errno on failure.
To try and ensure that people upgrading from old QEMU get guests
with the same PCI device ordering, change the way we assign addrs
to match QEMU's default order. This should make Windows less
annoyed.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Follow QEMU's default PCI ordering
logic when assigning addresses
* tests/*.args: Update for changed PCI addresses
To allow compatibility with older QEMU PCI device slot assignment
it is necessary to explicitly track the balloon device in the
XML. This introduces a new device
<memballoon model='virtio|xen'/>
It can also have a PCI address, auto-assigned if necessary.
The memballoon will be automatically added to all Xen and QEMU
guests by default.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add <memballoon> element
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: parsing
and formatting for memballoon device. Always add a memory
balloon device to Xen/QEMU if none exists in XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export memballoon model APIs
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Honour the
PCI device address in memory balloon device
* tests/*: Update to test new functionality
The first VGA and IDE devices need to have fixed PCI address
reservations. Currently this is handled inline with the other
non-primary VGA/IDE devices. The fixed virtio balloon device
at slot 3, ensures auto-assignment skips the slots 1/2. The
virtio address will shortly become configurable though. This
means the reservation of fixed slots needs to be done upfront
to ensure that they don't get re-used for other devices.
This is more or less reverting the previous changeset:

Fix restore of QEMU guests with PCI device reservation
The difference is that this time, instead of unconditionally
reserving the address, we only reserve the address if it was
initially type=none. Addresses of type=pci were handled
earlier in process by qemuDomainPCIAddressSetCreate(). This
ensures restore step doesn't have problems
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Reserve first VGA + IDE address
upfront
The VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT refers to an API which is not implemented.
There is a separate VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED for XML config
options that are not available with the current hypervisor.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove
many VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT replace with VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED
If you try to execute two concurrent migrations p2p
from A->B and B->A, the two libvirtd's will deadlock
trying to perform the migrations. The reason for this is
that in p2p migration, the libvirtd's are responsible for
making the RPC Prepare, Migrate, and Finish calls. However,
they are currently holding the driver lock while doing so,
which basically guarantees deadlock in this scenario.
This patch fixes the situation by adding
qemuDomainObjEnterRemoteWithDriver and
qemuDomainObjExitRemoteWithDriver helper methods. The Enter
take an additional object reference, then drops both the
domain object lock and the driver lock. The Exit takes
both the driver and domain object lock, then drops the
reference. Adding calls to these Enter and Exit helpers
around remote calls in the various migration methods
seems to fix the problem for me in testing.
This should make the situation safe. The additional domain
object reference ensures that the domain object won't disappear
while this operation is happening. The BeginJob that is called
inside of qemudDomainMigratePerform ensures that we can't execute a
second migrate (or shutdown, or save, etc) job while the
migration is active. Finally, the additional check on the state
of the vm after we reacquire the locks ensures that we can't
be surprised by an external event (domain crash, etc).

Originally the storage volume files were opened with O_DSYNC to make
sure they were flushed to disk immediately. It turned out that this
was extremely slow in some cases, so the O_DSYNC was removed in favor
of just calling fsync() after all the data had been written. However,
this call to fsync was inside the block that is executed to zero-fill
the end of the volume file. In cases where the new volume is copied
from an old volume, and they are the same length, this fsync would
never take place.
Now the fsync is *always* done, unless there is an error (in which
case it isn't important, and is most likely inappropriate.
A missing set of braces around an error condition caused us to skip
zero'ing out the remainder of a new volume file if the new volume was
longer than the original (the goto was supposed to be taken only in
the case of error, but was always being taken).
The storage volume lookup code was probing for the backing store
format, instead of using the format extracted from the file
itself. This meant it could report in accurate information. If
a format is included in the file, then use that in preference,
with probing as a fallback.
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: Use extracted backing store
format
When creating qcow2 files with a backing store, it is important
to set an explicit format to prevent QEMU probing. The storage
backend was only doing this if it found a 'kvm-img' binary. This
is wrong because plenty of kvm-img binaries don't support an
explicit format, and plenty of 'qemu-img' binaries do support
a format. The result was that most qcow2 files were not getting
a backing store format.
This patch runs 'qemu-img -h' to check for the two support
argument formats
'-o backing_format=raw'
'-F raw'
and use whichever option it finds
* src/storage/storage_backend.c: Query binary to determine
how to set the backing store format
