c703913cc0 Remove non-existant 'wiremode' attribute
The 'wiremode' attribute exists in a couple of Xen XML files, but no code has
ever parsed that value. It was later added to the RNG schema too, again despite
there not being any code which parses it.

1c7874e8d9 Misc XML schema fixes for libxl
The libxlxml2domconfigdata directory was not covered in the RNG schema
tests. This hid a few bugs in both the libxl XML files and the RNG

21332bf658 conf: add VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_SERIAL_TARGET_TYPE_SCLP
Introduce specific a target types with two models for the console
devices (sclp and sclplm) used in s390 and s390x guests, so isa-serial
is no more used for them.

This makes <serial> usable on s390 and s390x guests, with at most only
a single sclpconsole and one sclplmconsole devices usable in a single
guest (due to limitations in QEMU, which will enforce already at
runtime).

eccdcb81fc conf: Add target type and model for pl011
We can finally introduce a specific target model for the pl011 device
used by mach-virt guests, which means isa-serial will no longer show
up to confuse users.

We make sure migration works in both directions by interpreting the
isa-serial target type, or the lack of target type, appropriately
when parsing the guest XML, and skipping the newly-introduced type
when formatting if for migration. We also verify that pl011 is not
used for non-mach-virt guests and add a bunch of test cases.

7e4177a35b qemu: add vmcoreinfo support
Starting from qemu 2.11, the `-device vmcoreinfo` will create a fw_cfg
entry for a guest to store dump details, necessary to process kernel
dump with KASLR enabled and providing additional kernel details.

In essence, it is similar to -fw_cfg name=etc/vmcoreinfo,file=X but in
this case it is not backed by a file, but collected by QEMU itself.

Since the device is a singleton and shouldn't use additional hardware
resources, it is presented as a <feature> element in the libvirt
domain XML.

The device is arm/x86 only for now (targets that support fw_cfg+dma).

9061b3090e docs: add a page describing support guarantees for libvirt features
While we have collective knowledge about the support status of various
parts of libvirt, this has never been formally documented, leaving our
users to guess.

Note, this document makes one change to our previous policy. It explicitly
declares the RPC protocol of libvirtd as being a supported interface. THis
accepts the reality that we can a) never change it without breaking compat
with old libvirt.so, b) there are both rust + go impls that are written
against the RPC protocol already.

74119a03f1 numa: describe siblings distances within cells
Add support for describing NUMA distances in a domain's <numa> <cell>
XML description.

Below is an example of a 4 node setup:

  <cpu>
    <numa>
      <cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='21'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
      <cell id='1' cpus='4-7' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='31'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
      <cell id='2' cpus='8-11' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='10'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='21'/>
        </distances>
      <cell id='3' cpus='12-15' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
        <distances>
          <sibling id='0' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='1' value='31'/>
          <sibling id='2' value='21'/>
          <sibling id='3' value='10'/>
        </distances>
      </cell>
    </numa>
  </cpu>

A <cell> defines a NUMA node. <distances> describes the NUMA distance
from the <cell> to the other NUMA nodes (the <sibling>s).  For example,
in above XML description, the distance between NUMA node0 <cell id='0'
...> and NUMA node2 <sibling id='2' ...> is 31.

Valid distance values are '10 <= value <= 255'.  A distance value of 10
represents the distance to the node itself.  A distance value of 20
represents the default value for remote nodes but other values are
possible depending on the physical topology of the system.

When distances are not fully described, any missing sibling distance
values will default to 10 for local nodes and 20 for remote nodes.

If distance is given for A -> B, then we default B -> A to the same
value instead of 20.

37537a7c64 conf: Add/Allow parsing the encryption in the disk source
Since the virStorageEncryptionPtr encryption; is a member of
 _virStorageSource it really should be allowed to be a subelement
of the disk <source> for various disk formats:

   Source{File|Dir|Block|Volume}
   SourceProtocol{RBD|ISCSI|NBD|Gluster|Simple|HTTP}

NB: Simple includes sheepdog, ftp, ftps, tftp

That way we can set up to allow the <encryption> element to be
formatted within the disk source, but we still need to be wary
from whence the element was read - see keep track and when it
comes to format the data, ensure it's written in the correct place.

Modify the qemuxml2argvtest to add a parse failure when there is an
<encryption> as a child of <disk> *and* an <encryption> as a child
of <source>.

The virschematest will read the new test files and validate from a
RNG viewpoint things are fine.

it really should be allowed to be a subelement of the disk <source>
for the RBD and iSCSI prototcols. That way we can set up to allow
the <auth> element to be formatted within the disk source.

Since we've allowed the <auth> to be a child of <disk>, we'll need
to keep track of how it was read so that when writing out we'll know
whether to format as child of <disk> or <source>. For the argv2xml
parsing, let's format under <source> as a preference. Do not allow
<auth> to be both a child of <disk> and <source>.

Modify the qemuxml2argvtest to add a parse failure when there is an
<auth> as a child of <disk> *and* an <auth> as a child of <source>.

Add tests to validate that if the <auth> was found in <source>, then
the resulting xml2xml and xml2arg works just fine.  The two new .args
file are exact copies of the non "-source" version of the file.

The virschematest will read the new test files and validate from a
RNG viewpoint things are fine

Update the virstoragefile, virstoragetest, and args2xml file to show
the "preference" to place <auth> as a child of <source>.

5d7659027f docs,rng: Adjust storage pool name grammar checks
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1475250

It's possible to define and start a pool with a '.' in the
name; however, when trying to add a volume to a domain using
the storage pool source with a '.' in the storage pool name,
the domain RNG validation fails because RNG uses 'genericName'
which does not allow a '.' in the name.

Domain XML def parsing has a virXMLValidateAgainstSchema which
generates the error. The Storage Pool XML def parsing has no
call to virXMLValidateAgainstSchema. The only Storage Pool name
validation occurs in virStoragePoolDefParseXML to ensure the
name doesn't have a '/' in it and in storagePoolDefineXML to
call virXMLCheckIllegalChars using the same parameter "\n" as
qemuDomainDefineXMLFlags would check after the RNG check
could be succesful.

In order to resolve this, create a poolName definition in
storagecommon.rng that will mimic the domain name regex that
disallows a newline character, but add the "/" in the exclude
list. Then modify the pool and volume source name definitions
to key off that poolName.
