43b17dd444 qemu: allow filtering events by regex
When listening for a subset of monitor events, it can be tedious
to register for each event name in series; nicer is to register
for multiple events in one go.  Implement a flag to use regex
interpretation of the event filter.

While at it, prove how much I hate the shift key, by adding a
way to filter for 'shutdown' instead of 'SHUTDOWN'. :)

Any new API deserves a good virsh wrapper :)

149733821d qemuDomainSetInterfaceParameters: Allow bandwidth clear out
We allow translation from no_bandwidth to has_bandwidth for a vnic.
However, going in the opposite direction is not implemented. It's not
limitation of the API rather than internal implementation. The problem
is, we correctly detect that user hasn't specified any outbound (say
he wants to clear out outbound). However, this gets overwritten by
current vnic outbound settings. Then, virNetDevBandwidthSet doesn't
change anything. We need to stop overwriting the outbound if users
don't want us to. Same applies for inbound.

676cb4f4e7 virsh: Add keepalive in new vshConnect function
Introducing keepalive similarly to Guannan around 2 years ago.  Since
we want to introduce keepalive for every connection, it makes sense to
wrap the connecting function into new virsh one that can deal
keepalive as well.

Function vshConnect() is now used for connecting and keepalive added
in that function (if possible) helps preventing long waits e.g. while
nework goes down during migration.

This patch also adds the options for keepalive tuning into virsh and
fails connecting only when keepalives are explicitly requested and
cannot be set (whether it is due to missing support in connected
driver or remote server).  If not explicitely requested, a debug
message is printed (hence the addition to virsh-optparse test).

2ebf593a05 virsh: report exit status of failed lxc-enter-namespace
'virsh lxc-enter-namespace' does not have a way to reflect exit
status to the caller in single-command mode, but we might as well
at least report the exit status.  Prior to this patch,

$ virsh -c lxc:/// lxc-enter-namespace shell /bin/sh 'exit 3'; echo $?
1

now it gives some details:

$ virsh -c lxc:/// lxc-enter-namespace shell /bin/sh -c 'exit 3'; echo $?
error: internal error: Child process (31557) unexpected exit status 3
1

Also useful:

$ virsh -c lxc:/// lxc-enter-namespace shell /bin/sh -c 'kill $$'; echo $?

1

0e16ae404c virsh: add --all flag to 'event' command
Similar to our event-test demo program, it's nice to be able to
have a mode where we can sniff all events at once, rather than
having to spawn multiple virsh in parallel with one for each
event type.

(Can I just say our RegisterAny design is lousy?  The fact that
the majority of our callback pointers have a function signature
with the opaque data in a different position, and that we have
to cast the function signature before registering it, makes it
hard to write a generic callback function; we have to write one
for every type of event id.  Life would have been easier if we
had designed the callback as a fixed signature with a void*
and size parameter, and then allowed the caller to downcast
the void* to a particular struct for data specific to their
callback id, where we could have then had a single function
with a switch statement for each event id, and register that
one function for all types of events.  It would also be nicer
if the callback functions knew which callbackID was being used
when invoking that callback, so that I could use a common data
structure among all registrations instead of having to create
an array of one data per callback.  But I really don't want to
go add yet another event API design.)

all callbacks to support shared counter.

7eb37a0d65 bandwidth: Adjust documentation
Recent autotest/virt-test testing on f20 discovered an anomaly in how
the bandwidth options are documented and used. This was discovered due
to a bug fix in the /sbin/tc utility found in iproute-3.11.0.1 (on f20)
in which overflow was actually caught and returned as an error. The fix
was first introduced in iproute-3.10 (search on iproute2 commit 'a303853e').

The autotest/virt-test test for virsh domiftune was attempting to send
the largest unsigned integer value (4294967295) for maximum value
testing. The libvirt xml implementation was designed to manage values
in kilobytes thus when this value was passed to /sbin/tc, it (now)
properly rejected the 4294967295kbps value.

Investigation of the problem discovered that formatdomain.html.in and
formatnetwork.html.in described the elements and property types slightly
differently, although they use the same code - virNetDevBandwidthParseRate()
(shared by portgroups, domains, and networks xml parsers). Rather than
have the descriptions in two places, this patch will combine and reword
the description under formatnetwork.html.in and have formatdomain.html.in
link to that description.

This documentation faux pas was continued into the virsh man page where
the bandwidth description for both 'attach-interface' and 'domiftune'
did not indicate the format of each value, thus leading to the test using
largest unsigned integer value assuming "bps" rather than "kbps", which
ultimately was wrong.

6b29eb848f storage: Add document for possible problem on volume detection
For pool which relies on remote resources, such as a "iscsi" type
pool, since how long it takes to export the corresponding devices
to host's sysfs is really depended, it could depend on the network
connection, it also could depend on the host's udev procedures. So
it's likely that the volumes are not able to be detected during pool
starting process, polling the sysfs doesn't work, since we don't
know how much time is best for the polling, and even worse, the
volumes could still be not detected or partly not detected even after
the polling.  So we end up with a documentation to prompt the fact,
in virsh manual.

And as a small improvement, let's explicitly say no LUNs found in
the debug log in that case.

69ce3ffa8d virsh: Fix semantics of --config for "update-device" command
The man page states that with --config the next boot is affected. This
can be understood as if _only_ the next boot was affected. This isn't
true if the machine is running.

This patch adds the full --live, --config, --current infrastructure and
tweaks stuff to correctly support the obsolete --persistent flag.

Note that this patch changes the the behavior of the --config flag to match the
use of this flag in rest of libvirt. This flag was mistakenly renamed from
--persistent that originaly had different semantics.

8b9bf7879b Add support for offline migration
Offline migration transfers inactive definition of a domain (which may
or may not be active). After successful completion, the domain remains
in its current state on source host and is defined but inactive on
destination host. It's a bit more clever than virDomainGetXMLDesc() on
source host followed by virDomainDefineXML() on destination host, as
offline migration will run pre-migration hook to update the domain XML
on destination host. Currently, copying non-shared storage is not
supported during offline migration.

Offline migration can be requested with a new migration flag called
VIR_MIGRATE_OFFLINE (which has to be combined with
VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag).

2cd4d8e506 virsh: add snapshot-create-as memspec support
External checkpoints could be created with snapshot-create, but
without libvirt supplying a default name for the memory file,
it is essential to add a new argument to snapshot-create-as to
allow the user to choose the memory file name.  This adds the
option --memspec [file=]name[,snapshot=type], where type can
be none, internal, or external.  For an example,

virsh snapshot-create-as $dom --memspec /path/to/file

is the shortest possible command line for creating an external
checkpoint, named after the current timestamp.

fe7872827f virsh: new net-update command
This command uses the new virNetworkUpdate() API to modify an existing
network definition, and optionally have those modifications take
effect immediately without restarting the network.

An example usage:

  virsh net-update mynet add-last ip-dhcp-host \
   "<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='192.168.122.45'/>" \
   --live --config

If you like, you can instead put the xml into a file, and call like
this:

  virsh net-update mynet add ip-dhcp-host /tmp/myxml.xml
   --live --config

virsh will autodetect whether the argument is itself an xml element,
or if it's a file, by looking at the first character - the first
character of an xml element is always "<", and the first character of
a file is almost always *not* "<" (in the rare case that it is, the
user could specify "./<filename...").

A --parent-index option is also available (to give the index within a
list of parent objects, e.g. the index of the parent <ip> element when
updating ip-dhcp-host elements), but is optional and at least for now
will probably be used rarely.

--live, --config, and --current options - if you specify --live, only
the live state of the network will be updated. If you also specify
--config, then the persistent configuration will also be updated;
these two commands can be given separately, or both together. If you
don't specify either (you can optionally specify "--current" for the
same effect), then the "current" config will be updated (i.e. if the
network is active, then only its live config is affected, but if the
network is inactive, only the persistent config is affected).

ed23b10660 blockjob: add virsh blockcommit
The new command 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk' requests the start
of an asynchronous commit operation across the entire chain of
$disk.  Further arguments can fine-tune which portion of the
chain is committed.  Existing 'virsh blockjob' commands can then
track the status, change the bandwidth, or abort the commit job.

With a bit more on the command line, 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk
--wait --verbose' can be used for blocking behavior, with visual
feedback on the overall status, and can be canceled with Ctrl-C.

The overall design, including the wait loop logic, borrows heavily
from the existing blockpull command.

3189dfb163 Clarify direct migration
When --direct is used when migrating a domain running on a hypervisor
that does not support direct migration (such as QEMU), the caller would
get the following error message:

    this function is not supported by the connection driver:
    virDomainMigrateToURI2

which is a complete nonsense since qemu driver implements
virDomainMigrateToURI2. This patch would emit a more sensible error in
this case:

    Requested operation is not valid: direct migration is not supported
    by the connection driver

421a200987 virsh: Add domdisplay cmd for VNC, SPICE and RDP
v2:
- Refactored to use virBuffer
- Refactored to use virXPath wrappers
- Added support for tls-port and password for SPICE
- Added optional flag to disable SPICE password to the URI
- Added support for RDP
- Fixed code reviews

Add a new 'domdisplay' command that provides a URI for VNC, SPICE and
RDP connections. Presently the 'vncdisplay' command provides you with
the port info that QEMU is listening on but there is no counterpart for
SPICE and RDP. Additionally this provides you with the bind address as
specified in the XML, which the existing 'vncdisplay' lacks. For SPICE
connections it supports secure and unsecure channels and optionally
providing the password for the SPICE channel.

Storage is one of the last domains in libvirt where we don't fully
utilize inactive and live XML. Okay, it might be because we don't
have support for that. So implement such support. However, we need
to fallback when talking to old daemon which doesn't support this
new flag called VIR_STORAGE_XML_INACTIVE.

d62e51f86b virsh: add support for virConnectListAllDomains and clean up cmdList
This patch makes use of the newly added api virConnectListAllDomains()
to list domains in virsh.

Virsh now represents lists of domains using an internal structure
vshDomainList. This structure contains the virDomainPtr list as provided
by virConnectListAllDomains() and the count of domains in the list.

For backwards compatibility, the function vshDomainListCollect was added
that tries to enumerate the domains using the new API and if the API is
not supported falls back to the older approach with the two list
functions.  The helper function also simulates filtering by all
currently supported flags added with virConnectListAllDomains().

This patch also cleans up the "list" command handler to use the new
helpers and adds new command line flags to make use of filtering.

1f145b2f0f network: fully support/use VIR_NETWORK_XML_INACTIVE flag
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).

1f06c007fe blockjob: add 'blockcopy' to virsh
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.

3b96a89242 blockjob: add virsh blockpull --wait
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.

a696f8b71a blockjob: add API for async virDomainBlockJobAbort
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.

4d5533ca87 snapshot: add atomic create flag
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.

(VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_ATOMIC): New flag.
