This is only used in the ESX driver where, when set to "no", it will
ignore all the checks libvirt does about the origin of the MAC address
(whether or not it's in a VMWare OUI) and forward the original one to
the ESX server telling it not to check it either.
This allows keeping a deterministic MAC address which can be useful for
licensed software which might dislike changes.

ethernet2.address = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
ethernet2.checkMACAddress = "false"
which is flawed, as both type='static' and type='generated' in the XML
turn into 'static' in the VMX config.
The existence of the 'static' attribute is further overriding whether
the checkMACAddress config option is set as a side effect.
Both these pieces of flawed logic were introduced in
commit 454e5961ab

Add a type attribute on the mac address element
which intentionally added the 'checkMACAddress' side effect based on
the 'type' attribute.
With this change, we're reverting the handling of checkMACAddress
to match what existed historically. The 'type' attribute now directly
maps to the addressType attribute, so the above config becomes:
ethernet1.present = "true"
ethernet1.networkName = "br1"
ethernet1.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet1.addressType = "static"
ethernet1.address = "00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe"
ethernet2.present = "true"
ethernet2.networkName = "br2"
ethernet2.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet2.addressType = "generated"
ethernet2.generatedAddress = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
ethernet2.generatedAddressOffset = "0"

When a SCSI controller is present, ESX adds several pciBridge devices
to vmx file. This fixes an error message where it refuses to create VM
due to not enough PCI devices available. This applies only to virtualHW
version >= 7.
Tool such as libguestfs need the datacenter path to get access to disk
images. The ESX driver knows the correct datacenter path, but this
information cannot be accessed using libvirt API yet. Also, it cannot
be deduced from the connection URI in a robust way.
Expose the datacenter path in the domain XML as <vmware:datacenterpath>
node similar to the way the <qemu:commandline> node works. The new node
is ignored while parsing the domain XML. In contrast to <qemu:commandline>
it is output only.
The vmx file parsing code was reporting errors when parsing floppy.fileName
entries if the filename didn't end in .flp. There is no such restriction in
ESX; even using the GUI to configure floppy filenames you can specify any
arbitrary file with any extension.
Fix by changing the vmx parsing code so that it uses the floppy.fileType
value to determine whether floppy.fileName refers to a block device or a
regular file.
Also remove code that would have generated an error if no floppy.fileName
was specified. This is not an error either.
Updated the floppy tests in vmx2xmltest.c and xml2vmxtest.c.
A user was having an issue with this specific VMWare Fusion config and
he gave me permission to add it as part of our test suite to further
expand our VMX test coverage. Unfortunately our VMX parser and
generator does not support many features contained within and just
silently ignores fields it does not understand so they had to
be removed out in the xml2vmx test. The original unmodified version
exists in the vmx2xml test.
VMWare Fusion 5 can set the CD-ROM's device name to be 'auto detect' when
using the physical drive via 'cdrom-raw' device type. VMWare will then
connect to first available host CD-ROM to the virtual machine upon start
up according to VMWare documentation. If no device is available, it
appears that the device will remain disconnected.
To better model this a CD-ROM that is marked as "auto detect" when in
the off state would be modeled as the following with this patch:
<disk type='block' device='lun'>
<source startupPolicy='optional'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
Once the domain transitions to the powered on state, libvirt can
populate the remaining source data with what is connected, if anything.
However future power cycles, the domain may not always start with that
device attached.
According to VMWare's documentation 'cdrom-raw' is an acceptable value
for deviceType for a CD-ROM drive. The documentation states that the VMX
configuration for a CD-ROM deviceType is as follows:
ide|scsi(n):(n).deviceType = "cdrom-raw|atapi-cdrom|cdrom-image"
From the documentation it appears the following is true:
- cdrom-image = Provides the ISO to the VM
- atapi-cdrom = Provides a NEC emulated ATAPI CD-ROM on top of the host
CD-ROM
- cdrom-raw = Passthru for a host CD-ROM drive. Allows CD-R burning from
within the guest.
A CD-ROM prior to this patch would always provide an 'atapi-cdrom' is
modeled as:
<disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
This patch allows the 'device' attribute to be set to 'lun' for a raw
acccess CD-ROM such as:
<disk type='block' device='lun'>
<source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
The domain XML generator creates the mac addres strings with lowercase
strings with a separate piece of code. This patch changes the formating
helper to do the same stuff to allow using it to normalize a string
provided by the user. After this change some of the tests that are
outputing the mac address will need to be changed.
Make it obvious to 'dumpxml' readers what unit we are using,
since our default of KiB for memory (1024) differs from qemu's
default of MiB; and differs from our use of bytes for storage.
Tests were updated via:
$ find tests/*data tests/*out -name '*.xml' | \
xargs sed -i 's/<\(memory\|currentMemory\|hard_limit\|soft_limit\|min_guarantee\|swap_hard_limit\)>/<\1 unit='"'KiB'>/"
$ find tests/*data tests/*out -name '*.xml' | \
xargs sed -i 's/<\(capacity\|allocation\|available\)>/<\1 unit='"'bytes'>/"
followed by a few fixes for the stragglers.
Note that with this patch, the RNG for <memory> still forbids
validation of anything except unit='KiB', since the code silently
ignores the attribute; a later patch will expand <memory> to allow
scaled input in the code and update the RNG to match.

This patch adds support for vmx files with empty networkName
values (which is the case for vmx generated by Workstation).
It also adds support for vmx containing NATed network interfaces.
Update test suite accordingly
Before commit 145d6cb05c (in August 2010) absolute file names
in VMX and domain XML configs were handled correctly. But this got
lost during the refactoring. The test cases didn't highlight this
problem because they have their own set of file name handling
functions. The actual ones require a real connection to an ESX
server. Also the test case functions always worked correctly.
Fix the regression and add a new in-the-wild VMX file that contains
such a problematic absolute path. Even though this test case won't
protect against new regressions.

Since version 4.1 ESX(i) can expose virtual serial devices over TCP.
Add support in the VMX handling code for this, add test cases to cover
it and add links to some documentation.
ESX supports two additional protocols: TELNETS and TLS. Add them to
the list of serial-over-TCP protocols.
floppy0.present defaults to true. Therefore, it needs to be
explicitly set to false when the XML config doesn't specify the
corresponding floppy device.
Also update tests accordingly.
Extend tests to cover all SCSI controller types and document the
new type.
The lsisas1068 SCSI controller type was added in ESX 4.0. The VMX
parser reports an error when this controller type is present. This
makes virsh dumpxml fail for every domain that uses this controller
type.
This patch fixes this and adds lsisas1068 to the list of accepted
SCSI controller types.

The MAC addresses with 00:50:56 prefix are split into several ranges:
00:50:56:00:00:00 - 00:50:56:3f:ff:ff 'static' range (manually assigned)
00:50:56:80:00:00 - 00:50:56:bf:ff:ff 'vpx' range (assigned by a VI Client)
Erroneously the 'vpx' range was assumed to be larger and to occupy the
remaining addresses of the 00:50:56 prefix that are not part of the 'static'
range.
00:50:56 was used as prefix for generated MAC addresses, this is not possible
anymore, because there are gaps in the allowed ranges. Therefore, change the
prefix to 00:0c:29 which is the prefix for auto generated MAC addresses anyway.
Allow arbitrary MAC addresses to be used and set the checkMACAddress VMX option
to false in case the MAC address doesn't fall into any predefined range.

VMware uses two MAC address prefixes: 00:0c:29 and 00:50:56. The 00:0c:29
prefix is used for ESX server generated addresses. The 00:50:56 prefix is
split into two parts. MAC addresses above 00:50:56:3f:ff:ff are generated
by a vCenter. The rest of the 00:50:56 prefix can be assigned manually.
Any MAC address within the 00:0c:29 and 00:50:56 prefix can be specified
in a domain XML config and the driver will handle the details internally.
