We already have the ability to turn off dumping of guest
RAM via the domain XML. This is not particularly useful
though, as it is under control of the management application.
What is needed is a way for the sysadmin to turn off guest
RAM defaults globally, regardless of whether the mgmt app
provides its own way to set this in the domain XML.
So this adds a 'dump_guest_core' option in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
which defaults to false. ie guest RAM will never be included in
the QEMU core dumps by default. This default is different from
historical practice, but is considered to be more suitable as
a default because
a) guest RAM can be huge and so inflicts a DOS on the host
I/O subsystem when dumping core for QEMU crashes
b) guest RAM can contain alot of sensitive data belonging
to the VM owner. This should not generally be copied
around inside QEMU core dumps submitted to vendors for
debugging
c) guest RAM contents are rarely useful in diagnosing
QEMU crashes

Currently the QEMU processes inherit their core dump rlimit
from libvirtd, which is really suboptimal. This change allows
their limit to be directly controlled from qemu.conf instead.
Call option completers if argument completion is requested using the
corresponding option completer, if it is defined.

Introduce a static attr table and refactor virPerfEventEnable() for
general purpose usage.
This patch creates a static table/matrix that converts the VIR_PERF_EVENT_*
events into their respective "attr.type" and "attr.config" so that
virPerfEventEnable doesn't have the switch the calling function passes
by value the 'type'.

Since the domain lock is not held during preparation of an external XML
config, it is possible that the value can change resulting in unexpected
failures during ABI consistency checking for some save and migrate
operations.
This patch adds a new flag to skip the checking of the cur_balloon value
and then sets the destination value to the source value to ensure
subsequent checks without the skip flag will succeed.
This way it is protected from forges and is keeped up to date too.

Add support for multi serial devices, after this patch virsh can be used to
connect different serial devices of running domains. E.g.
vish # console <xxx> --devname serial<xxx>
Note:
This depends on a xen/libxl bug fix to have libxl_console_get_tty(...) correctly
returning the tty path (as opposed to always returning the first one).

libvirt uses the new_id PCI sysfs interface to bind a PCI stub driver
to a PCI device. The new_id interface is known to be buggy and racey,
hence a more deterministic interface was introduced in the 3.12 kernel:
driver_override. For more details see
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-June/msg02124.html
For more details about the driver_override interface and examples of
its usage, see
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/drivers/pci/pci-driver.c?h=v3.12&id=782a985d7af26db39e86070d28f987cad21313c0
This patch adds support for the driver_override interface by
- adding new virPCIDevice{BindTo,UnbindFrom}StubWithOverride functions
that use the driver_override interface
- renames the existing virPCIDevice{BindTo,UnbindFrom}Stub functions
to virPCIDevice{BindTo,UnbindFrom}StubWithNewid to perserve existing
behavior on new_id interface
- changes virPCIDevice{BindTo,UnbindFrom}Stub function to call one of
the above depending on availability of driver_override
The patch includes a bit of duplicate code, but allows for easily
dropping the new_id code once support for older kernels is no
longer desired.

The 'multi' element in PCI address struct used as 'virTristateSwitch',
and its default value is 'VIR_TRISTATE_SWITCH_ABSENT'. Current PCI
process use 'false' to initialization 'multi', which is ambiguously
for assignment or comparison. This patch use '{0}' to initialize
the whole PCI address struct, which fix the 'multi' initialization
and makes code more simplify and explicitly.

When we wanted to break huge and unmaintainable virsh into
smaller files first thing we did was to just move funcs into
virsh-.c files and then #include them from virsh. Having it done
this way we also needed to have them listed under EXTRA_DIST.
However, things got changed since then and now all the virsh-*.c
files are proper source files. Therefore they are listed under
virsh_SOURCES too. But for some reason we forgot to remove them
from EXTRA_DIST.

The libxl driver has long supported migration V3 but has never
indicated so in the connectSupportsFeature API. As a result, apps
such as virt-manager that use the more generic virDomainMigrate API
fail with
libvirtError: this function is not supported by the connection driver:
virDomainMigrate
Add VIR_DRV_FEATURE_MIGRATION_V3 to the list of features marked as
supported in the connectSupportsFeature API.
Test 12 from objecteventtest (createXML add event) segaults on FreeBSD
with bus error.
At some point it calls testNodeDeviceDestroy() from the test driver. And
it fails when it tries to unlock the device in the "out:" label of this
function.
Unlocking fails because the previous step was a call to
virNodeDeviceObjRemove from conf/node_device_conf.c. This function
removes the given device from the device list and cleans up the object,
including destroying of its mutex. However, it does not nullify the pointer
that was given to it.
As a result, we end up in testNodeDeviceDestroy() here:
out:
if (obj)
virNodeDeviceObjUnlock(obj);
And instead of skipping this, we try to do Unlock and fail because of
malformed mutex.
Change virNodeDeviceObjRemove to use double pointer and set pointer to
NULL.
As bhyve currently doesn't use controller addressing and simply
uses 1 implicit controller for 1 disk device, the scheme looks the
following:
pci addrees -> (implicit controller) -> disk device
So in fact we identify disk devices by pci address of implicit
controller and just pass it this way to bhyve in a form:
-s pci_addr,ahci-(cd|hd),/path/to/disk
Therefore, we cannot use virDeviceInfoPCIAddressWanted() because it
does not expect that disk devices might need PCI address assignment.
As a result, if a disk was specified without address, it will not be
generated and domain will to start.
Until proper controller addressing is implemented in the bhyve
driver, force each disk to have PCI address generated if it was not
specified by user.
Setting vcpu count when cpu topology is specified may result into an
invalid configuration. Since the topology can't be modified, reject the
setting if it doesn't match the requested topology. This will allow
fixing the topology in case it was broken.
Partially fixes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1370066
Validating the vcpu count is more intricate and doing it in the XML
parser will make previously valid configs (with older qemus) vanish.
Now that we have a very similar check in the qemu domain validation
callback we can do it in a more appropriate place.
This basically reverts commit b54de0830a.

ce43cca0e refactored the helper to prepare it for sparse topologies but
forgot to fix the iterator used to fill the structures. This would
result into a weirdly sparse populated array and possible out of bounds
access and crash once sparse vcpu topologies were allowed.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1369988
virVcpuInfo contains the vcpu number that the data refers to. Report
what's returned by the daemon rather than the sequence number as with
sparse vcpu topologies they won't match.
While dettaching/attaching device in OpenStack, nova
calls vzDomainDettachDevice twice, because the update of the internal
configuration of the ct comes a bit latter than the update event.
As the result, we suffer from the second call to dettach the same device.

When support for auto-creating tap devices was added to <interface
type='ethernet'> in commit 9c17d6, the code assumed that
virNetDevTapCreate() would honor the VIR_NETDEV_TAP__CREATE_IFUP flag
that is supported by virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort(). That isn't the
case - the latter function performs several operations, and one of
them is setting the tap device online. But virNetDevTapCreate() *only*
creates the tap device, and relies on the caller to do everything
else, so qemuInterfaceEthernetConnect() needs to call
virNetDevSetOnline() after the device is successfully created.
The linkstate setting of an <interface> is only meant to change the
online status reported to the guest system by the emulated network
device driver in qemu, but when support for auto-creating tap devices
for <interface type='ethernet'> was added in commit 9717d6, a chunk of
code was also added to qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState() that sets the
online status of the tap device (i.e. the *host* side of the
interface) for type='ethernet'. This was never done for tap devices
used in type='bridge' or type='network' interfaces, nor was it done in
the past for tap devices created by external scripts for
type='ethernet', so we shouldn't be doing it now.
This patch removes the bit of code in qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState()
that modifies online status of the tap device.
The call to virNetDevIPInfoAddToDev() that sets up tap device IP
addresses and routes was somehow incorrectly placed in
qemuInterfaceStopDevice() instead of qemuInterfaceStartDevice() in
commit fe8567f6. This fixes that error by moving the call to
virNetDevIPInfoAddToDev() to qemuInterfaceStartDevice().
