The nec-usb-xhci device (which is a USB3 controller) has always
presented itself as a PCI device when plugged into a legacy PCI slot,
and a PCIe device when plugged into a PCIe slot, but libvirt has
always auto-assigned it to a legacy PCI slot.
This patch changes that behavior to auto-assign to a PCIe slot on
systems that have pcie-root (e.g. Q35 and aarch64/virt).
Since we don't yet auto-create pcie-*-port controllers on demand, this
means a config with an nec-xhci USB controller that has no PCI address
assigned will also need to have an otherwise-unused pcie-*-port
controller specified:
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='usb' model='nec-xhci'/>
(this assumes there is an otherwise-unused slot on pcie-root to accept
the pcie-root-port)
The e1000e is an emulated network device based on the Intel 82574,
present in qemu 2.7.0 and later. Among other differences from the
e1000, it presents itself as a PCIe device rather than legacy PCI. In
order to get it assigned to a PCIe controller, this patch updates the
flags setting for network devices when the model name is "e1000e".
(Note that for some reason libvirt has never validated the network
device model names other than to check that there are no dangerous
characters in them. That should probably change, but is the subject of
another patch.)

libvirt previously assigned nearly all devices to a "hotpluggable"
legacy PCI slot even on machines with a PCIe root bus (and even though
most such machines don't even support hotplug on legacy PCI slots!)
Forcing all devices onto legacy PCI slots means that the domain will
need a dmi-to-pci-bridge (to convert from PCIe to legacy PCI) and a
pci-bridge (to provide hotpluggable legacy PCI slots which, again,
usually aren't hotpluggable anyway).
To help reduce the need for these legacy controllers, this patch tries
to assign virtio-1.0-capable devices to PCIe slots whenever possible,
by setting appropriate connectFlags in
virDomainCalculateDevicePCIConnectFlags(). Happily, when that function
was written (just a few commits ago) it was created with a
"virtioFlags" argument, set by both of its callers, which is the
proper connectFlags to set for any virtio-*-pci device - depending on
the arch/machinetype of the domain, and whether or not the qemu binary
supports virtio-1.0, that flag will have either been set to PCI or
PCIe. This patch merely enables the functionality by setting the flags
for the device to whatever is in virtioFlags if the device is a
virtio-*-pci device.
NB: the first virtio video device will be placed directly on bus 0
slot 1 rather than on a pcie-root-port due to the override for primary
video devices in qemuDomainValidateDevicePCISlotsQ35(). Whether or not
to change that is a topic of discussion, but this patch doesn't change
that particular behavior.
NB2: since the slot must be hotpluggable, and pcie-root (the PCIe root
complex) does *not* support hotplug, this means that suitable
controllers must also be in the config (i.e. either pcie-root-port, or
pcie-downstream-port). For now, libvirt doesn't add those
automatically, so if you put virtio devices in a config for a qemu
that has PCIe-capable virtio devices, you'll need to add extra
pcie-root-ports yourself. That requirement will be eliminated in a
future patch, but for now, it's simple to do this:
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
<controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>

The memory device alias needs to be treated as machine ABI as qemu is
using it in the migration stream for section labels. To simplify this
generate the alias from the slot number unless an existing broken
configuration is detected.
With this patch the aliases are predictable and even certain
configurations which would not be migratable previously are fixed.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1359135
As with other devices assign the slot number right away when adding the
device. This will make the slot numbers static as we do with other
addressing elements and it will ultimately simplify allocation of the
alias in a static way which does not break with qemu.
Simplify handling of the 'dimm' address element by allowing to specify
the slot number only. This will allow libvirt to allocate slot numbers
before starting qemu.
Even though using /dev/shm/asdf as the backend, we still need to make
the mapping shared. The original patch forgot to add that parameter.

Support for virtio disks was added in commit id 'fceeeda', but not for
SCSI drives. Add the secret for the server when hotplugging a SCSI drive.
No need to make any adjustments for unplug since that's handled during
the qemuDomainDetachDiskDevice call to qemuDomainRemoveDiskDevice in
the qemuDomainDetachDeviceDiskLive switch.
Added a test to/for the command line processing to show the command line
options when adding a SCSI drive for the guest.
Add the secret object so the 'passwordid=' can be added if the command line
if there's a secret defined in/on the host for TCP chardev TLS objects.
Preparation for the secret involves adding the secinfo to the char source
device prior to command line processing. There are multiple possibilities
for TCP chardev source backend usage.
Add test for at least a serial chardev as an example.
Add in the block I/O throttling length/duration parameter to the command
line if supported. If not supported, fail command creation.
Add the xml2argvtest for testing.
Add an optional "tls='yes|no'" attribute for a TCP chardev.
For QEMU, this will allow for disabling the host config setting of the

to attempt to use a host TLS environment when setting the value to "yes"
when the host config 'chardev_tls' setting is disabled, but a TLS environment

There was inconsistency between alias used to create tls-creds-x509
object and alias used to link that object to chardev while hotpluging.
Hotplug ends with this error:
error: Failed to detach device from channel-tcp.xml
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'chardev-add':
No TLS credentials with id 'objcharchannel3_tls0'
In XML we have for example alias "serial0", but on qemu command line we
generate "charserial0".
The issue was that code, that creates QMP command to hotplug chardev
devices uses only the second alias "charserial0" and that alias is also
used to link the tls-creds-x509 object.
This patch unifies the aliases for tls-creds-x509 to be always generated
from "charserial0".

This patch simplifies QEMU capabilities for QXL video device. QEMU
exposes this device as *qxl-vga* and *qxl* and they are both the same

*qxl-vga* includes VGA compatibility.
Based on QEMU code they are tied together so it's safe to check only for

If one of QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL_VGA or QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL is set the

The change of args files is caused by the presence of capability
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIDEO_PRIMARY which means it's safe to use
"-device qxl-vga" instead of "-vga qxl", see commit (e3f2686b) and
by the fact that if QEMU_CAPS_VGA_QXL is set QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL_VGA
and QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_QXL would be set too (since we support only qemu

There is a logic in place that if there is no real need for

that wasn't the case with hugepage backing. The reason for that was
that we abused the 'pagesize' variable for storing that information, but
we should rather have a separate one that specifies whether we really
need the new object for hugepage backing. And that variable should be
set only if this particular NUMA cell needs special treatment WRT

Most of QEMU's PCI display device models, such as:
libvirt video/model/@type QEMU -device
------------------------- ------------
cirrus cirrus-vga
vga VGA
qxl qxl-vga
virtio virtio-vga
come with a linear framebuffer (sometimes called "VGA compatibility
framebuffer"). This linear framebuffer lives in one of the PCI device's
MMIO BARs, and allows guest code (primarily: firmware drivers, and
non-accelerated OS drivers) to display graphics with direct memory access.
Due to architectural reasons on aarch64/KVM hosts, this kind of
framebuffer doesn't / can't work in
qemu-system-(arm|aarch64) -M virt
machines. Cache coherency issues guarantee a corrupted / unusable display.
The problem has been researched by several people, including kvm-arm
maintainers, and it's been decided that the best way (practically the only
way) to have boot time graphics for such guests is to consolidate on
QEMU's "virtio-gpu-pci" device.
>From <https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1195176>, libvirt
supports
<devices>
<video>
<model type='virtio'/>
</video>
</devices>
but libvirt unconditionally maps @type='virtio' to QEMU's "virtio-vga"
device model. (See the qemuBuildDeviceVideoStr() function and the
"qemuDeviceVideo" enum impl.)
According to the above, this is not right for the "virt" machine type; the
qemu-system-(arm|aarch64) binaries don't even recognize the "virtio-vga"
device model (justifiedly). Whereas "virtio-gpu-pci", which is a pure
virtio device without a compatibility framebuffer, is available, and works
fine.
(The ArmVirtQemu ("AAVMF") platform of edk2 -- that is, the UEFI firmware
for "virt" -- supports "virtio-gpu-pci", as of upstream commit
3ef3209d3028. See
<https://tianocore.acgmultimedia.com/show_bug.cgi?id=66>.)
Override the default mapping of "virtio", from "virtio-vga" to
"virtio-gpu-pci", if qemuDomainMachineIsVirt() evaluates to true.

Add support for using the new approach to hotplug vcpus using device_add
during startup of qemu to allow sparse vcpu topologies.
There are a few limitations imposed by qemu on the supported
configuration:
- vcpu0 needs to be always present and not hotpluggable
- non-hotpluggable cpus need to be ordered at the beginning
- order of the vcpus needs to be unique for every single hotpluggable
entity
Qemu also doesn't really allow to query the information necessary to
start a VM with the vcpus directly on the commandline. Fortunately they
can be hotplugged during startup.
The new hotplug code uses the following approach:
- non-hotpluggable vcpus are counted and put to the -smp option
- qemu is started
- qemu is queried for the necessary information
- the configuration is checked
- the hotpluggable vcpus are hotplugged
- vcpus are started
This patch adds a lot of checking code and enables the support to
specify the individual vcpu element with qemu.
