9cb891141c conf: don't ignore <target dev='blah'/> for macvtap interfaces
The parser had been clearing out *all* suggested device names for
type='direct' (aka macvtap) interfaces. All of the code implementing
macvtap allows for a user-specified device name, so we should allow
it. In the case that an interface name starts with "macvtap" or
"macvlan" though, we do still clear it out, just as we do with "vnet"
(which is the prefix used for automatically generated tap device
names), since those are the prefixes for the names we autogenerate for
macvtap and macvlan devices.

We are currently parsing only rx/frames/max because that's the only
value that makes sense for us.  The tun device just added support for
this one and the others are only supported by hardware devices which
we don't need to worry about as the only way we'd pass those to the

those cases the guest can modify the settings itself.

80af11d3dd conf: Introduce @access to <memory/>
Now that NVDIMM has found its way into libvirt, users might want
to fine tune some settings for each module separately. One such
setting is 'share=on|off' for the memory-backend-file object.
This setting - just like its name suggest already - enables
sharing the nvdimm module with other applications. Under the hood
it controls whether qemu mmaps() the file as MAP_PRIVATE or
MAP_SHARED.

Yet again, we have such config knob in domain XML, but it's just
an attribute to numa <cell/>. This does not give fine enough
tuning on per-memdevice basis so we need to have the attribute
for each device too.

b4e8a49f8d Introduce NVDIMM memory model
NVDIMM is new type of memory introduced into QEMU 2.6. The idea
is that we have a Non-Volatile memory module that keeps the data
persistent across domain reboots.

At the domain XML level, we already have some representation of
'dimm' modules. Long story short, NVDIMM will utilize the
existing <memory/> element that lives under <devices/> by adding
a new attribute 'nvdimm' to the existing @model and introduce a
new <path/> element for <source/> while reusing other fields. The
resulting XML would appear as:

    <memory model='nvdimm'>
      <source>
        <path>/tmp/nvdimm</path>
      </source>
      <target>
        <size unit='KiB'>523264</size>
        <node>0</node>
      </target>
      <address type='dimm' slot='0'/>
    </memory>

So far, this is just a XML parser/formatter extension. QEMU
driver implementation is in the next commit.

a46aa8852f docs: correct version requirements for <kvm><hidden='on'/></kvm>
When support was added for the kvm hidden='on' attribute in commit
d07116, the version requirement was listed as "2.1.0 (QEMU
only)". However, this was added when libvirt was at version 1.2.8 - it
is *QEMU* that must be at version 2.1.0 or later.

This went unnoticed for a very long time (over 2 years). Then a week
or two ago a new Windows convert in the #virt channel on OFTC was told
he needed to use this feature (to prevent nvidia drivers in a guest
from refusing to work due to being run in a virtual machine). There
was some problem with it being recognized and "someone" (it may have
been me, or may have been someone else, I don't remember) pointed out
that the documentation at

  http://www.libvirt.org/formatdomain.html

says that it requires libvirt 2.1.0. The next several days were filled
with agony as a new convert to Linux first tried to upgrade a Linux
Mint host running their "LTS" version to something newer, then tried
to install a libvirt build built for Ubuntu onto this, and later back
to the old LTS Linux Mint. After this he tried building his own
libvirt from source (with all the expected problems), and finally
switched to Fedora. In the end it was hours and hours of everybody's
lives that they will never get back. To now learn that he didn't need
to do this (his original libvirt version was 1.3.3, so whatever his
problem was, it was elsewhere) makes the pain all that much worse.

To prevent this from happening again, this simple patch changes the
version requirement for the kvm hidden attribute from "2.1.0 (QEMU
only)" to "1.2.8 (QEMU 2.1.0)".

c56cdf2593 conf: Add support for virtio-net.rx_queue_size
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1366989

QEMU added another virtio-net tunable [1]. It basically allows
users to set the size of RX virtio ring. But because virtio-net
uses two separate ring buffers to pass data from/to guest they
named it explicitly rx_queue_size. We should expose it in our XML
too.

9eb9106ea5 qemu: command: Add support for sparse vcpu topologies
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.

5847bc5c64 conf: Add XML for individual vCPU hotplug
Individual vCPU hotplug requires us to track the state of any vCPU. To
allow this add the following XML:

<domain>
  ...
  <vcpu current='2'>3</vcpu>
  <vcpus>
    <vcpu id='0' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='no' order='1'/>
    <vcpu id='1' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='yes' order='2'/>
    <vcpu id='1' enabled='no' hotpluggable='yes'/>
  </vcpus>
  ...

The 'enabled' attribute allows to control the state of the vcpu.
'hotpluggable' controls whether given vcpu can be hotplugged and 'order'
allows to specify the order to add the vcpus.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1356937

Add the definitions to allow for viewing/setting cgroup period and quota
limits for IOThreads.

This is similar to the work done for emulator quota and period by
commit ids 'b65dafa' and 'e051c482'.

Being able to view/set the IOThread specific values is related to more
recent changes adding global period (commmit id '4d92d58f') and global
quota (commit id '55ecdae') definitions and qemu support (commit id
'4e17ff79' and 'fbcbd1b2'). With a global setting though, if somehow
the IOThread value in the cgroup hierarchy was set "outside of libvirt"
to a value that is incompatible with the global value.

Allowing control over IOThread specific values provides the capability
to alter the IOThread values as necessary.

98fa8f3ef6 conf: support host-side IP/route information in <interface>
This is place as a sub-element of <source>, where other aspects of the
host-side connection to the network device are located (network or
bridge name, udp listen port, etc). It's a bit odd that the interface
we're configuring with this info is itself named in <target dev='x'/>,
but that ship sailed long ago:

    <interface type='ethernet'>
      <mac address='00:16:3e:0f:ef:8a'/>
      <source>
        <ip address='192.168.122.12' family='ipv4'
            prefix='24' peer='192.168.122.1'/>
        <ip address='192.168.122.13' family='ipv4' prefix='24'/>
        <route family='ipv4' address='0.0.0.0'
               gateway='192.168.122.1'/>

               gateway='192.168.124.1'/>
      </source>
    </interface>

In practice, this will likely only be useful for type='ethernet', so
its presence in any other type of interface is currently forbidden in
the generic device Validate function (but it's been put into the
general population of virDomainNetDef rather than the
ethernet-specific union member so that 1) we can more easily add the
capability to other types if needed, and 2) we can retain the info
when set to an invalid interface type all the way through to
validation and report a proper error, rather than just ignoring it
(which is currently what happens for many other type-specific

(NB: The already-existing configuration of IP info for the guest-side

name of the guest-side interface (when configurable) is in <guest
dev='x'/>).

df2fb9bfff conf: limit chassisNr, and busNr to a minimum value of 1, not 0
In the case of chassisNr (used to set chassis_nr of a pci-bridge
controller), 0 is reserved for / used by the pci[e]-root bus. In the
base of busNr, a value of 0 would mean that the root bus had no places
available to plug in new buses, including the pxb itself (the
documentation I wrote for pxb even noted the limit of busNr as 1.254).

NB: oddly, the "chassis" attribute, which is used for pcie-root-port
and pcie-switch-downstream-port *can* be set to 0, since it's the
combination of {chassis, slot} that needs to be unique, not chassis by
itself (and slot 0 of pcie-root is reserved, while pcie-*-port can use
*only* slot 0).

VNC graphics already supports sockets but only via 'socket' attribute.
This patch coverts that attribute into listen type 'socket'.

For backward compatibility we need to handle listen type 'socket' and 'socket'
attribute properly to support old XMLs and new XMLs.  If both are provided they
have to match, if only one of them is provided we need to be able to parse that
configuration too.

To not break migration back to old libvirt if the socket is provided by user we
need to generate migratable XML without the listen element and use only 'socket'
attribute.

4d100c7a41 conf: permit auto-assignment of controller indexes
Hand-entering indexes for 20 PCI controllers is not as tedious as
manually determining and entering their PCI addresses, but it's still
annoying, and the algorithm for determining the proper index is
incredibly simple (in all cases except one) - just pick the lowest
unused index.

The one exception is USB2 controllers because multiple controllers in
the same group have the same index. For these we look to see if 1) the
most recently added USB controller is also a USB2 controller, and 2)
the group *that* controller belongs to doesn't yet have a controller
of the exact model we're just now adding - if both are true, the new
controller gets the same index, but in all other cases we just assign
the lowest unused index.

With this patch in place and combined with the automatic PCI address
assignment, we can define a PCIe switch with several ports like this:

  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-root-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-upstream-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-downstream-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-downstream-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-downstream-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-downstream-port'/>
  <controller type='pci' model='pcie-switch-downstream-port'/>
  ...

These will each get a unique index, and PCI addresses that connect
them together appropriately with no pesky numbers required.

8f578716c7 conf: allow type='pci' addresses with no address attributes specified
Prior to this, <address type='pci'/> wasn't allowed when parsing
(domain+bus+slot+function needed to be a "valid" PCI address, meaning
that at least one of domain/bus/slot had to be non-0), the RNG
required bus to be specified, and if type was set to PCI when
formatting, domain+bus+slot+function would always be output.

This makes all the address attributes optional during parse and RNG
validation, and suppresses domain+bus+slot+function if domain+bus+slot
are all 0 (NB: if d+b+s are all 0, any value for function is
nonsensical as that will never happen in the real world, and after
the next patch we will always assign a real working address to any
empty PCI address before it is ever output to anywhere).

Note that explicitly setting all attributes to 0 is equivalent to
setting none of them, which is okay, since 0000:00:00 is reserved in
any PCI bus setup, and can't be used anyway.

75db9997a0 util: set vlan tag for macvtap passthrough mode on SRIOV VFs
SRIOV VFs used in macvtap passthrough mode can take advantage of the

the vlan tag, and it has been used for SRIOV VFs used for hostdev
interfaces for several years, but for some reason, the vlan tag for
macvtap passthrough devices was stubbed out with a -1.

This patch moves a bit of common validation down to a lower level
(virNetDevReplaceNetConfig()) so it is shared by hostdev and macvtap
modes, and updates the macvtap caller to actually send the vlan config
instead of -1.

600977e293 qemu: support configuring usb3 controller port count
This adds a ports= attribute to usb controller XML, like

  <controller type='usb' model='nec-xhci' ports='8'/>

This maps to:

  qemu -device nec-usb-xhci,p2=8,p3=8

Meaning, 8 ports that support both usb2 and usb3 devices. Gerd
suggested to just expose them as one knob.

d855465452 qemu: add panic device support for S390
If a panic device is being defined without a model in a domain
the default value is always overwritten with model ISA. An ISA
bus does not exist on S390 and therefore specifying a panic device
results in an unsupported configuration.
Since the S390 architecture inherently provides a crash detection
capability the panic device should be defined in the domain xml.

This patch adds an s390 panic device model and prevents setting a
device address on it.

This reverts commit 690969af9c, which
added the domain config parts to support a "peer" attribute in domain
interface <ip> elements.

It's being removed temporarily for the release of libvirt 1.3.4
because the feature doesn't work, and there are concerns that it may
need to be modified in an externally visible manner which could create
backward compatibility problems.

However this restriction has generated quite a few complaints over

http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-April/msg00987.html

Several people suggested removing the restriction, and nobody really
spoke up to defend it. So this patch drops the path restriction

bc07251f59 conf: new pci controller model pcie-expander-bus
This controller provides a single PCIe port on a new root. It is
similar to pci-expander-bus, intended to provide a bus that can be
associated with a guest-identifiable NUMA node, but is for
machinetypes with PCIe rather than PCI (e.g. q35-based machinetypes).

Aside from PCIe vs. PCI, the other main difference is that a
pci-expander-bus has a companion pci-bridge that is automatically
attached along with it, but pcie-expander-bus has only a single port,
and that port will only connect to a pcie-root-port, or to a
pcie-switch-upstream-port. In order for the bus to be of any use in
the guest, it must have either a pcie-root-port or a
pcie-switch-upstream-port attached (and one or more
pcie-switch-downstream-ports attached to the
pcie-switch-upstream-port).

52f3d0a4d2 conf: new pci controller model pci-expander-bus
This is a standard PCI root bus (not a bridge) that can be added to a
440fx-based domain. Although it uses a PCI slot, this is *not* how it
is connected into the PCI bus hierarchy, but is only used for
control. Each pci-expander-bus provides 32 slots (0-31) that can
accept hotplug of standard PCI devices.

The usefulness of pci-expander-bus relative to a pci-bridge is that
the NUMA node of the bus can be specified with the <node> subelement
of <target>. This gives guest-side visibility to the NUMA node of
attached devices (presuming that management apps only assign a device
to a bus that has a NUMA node number matching the node number of the
device on the host).

Each pci-expander-bus also has a "busNr" attribute. The expander-bus
itself will take the busNr specified, and all buses that are connected
to this bus (including the pci-bridge that is automatically added to
any expander bus of model "pxb" (see the next commit)) will use
busNr+1, busNr+2, etc, and the pci-root (or the expander-bus with next
lower busNr) will use bus numbers lower than busNr.

This patch adds support for "vpindex", "runtime", "synic",
"stimer", and "vendor_id" features available in qemu 2.5+.

- When Hyper-V "vpindex" is on, guest can use MSR HV_X64_MSR_VP_INDEX
to get virtual processor ID.

- Hyper-V "runtime" enlightement feature allows to use MSR
HV_X64_MSR_VP_RUNTIME to get the time the virtual processor consumes
running guest code, as well as the time the hypervisor spends running
code on behalf of that guest.

- Hyper-V "synic" stands for Synthetic Interrupt Controller, which is
lapic extension controlled via MSRs.

- Hyper-V "stimer" switches on Hyper-V SynIC timers MSR's support.
Guest can setup and use fired by host events (SynIC interrupt and
appropriate timer expiration message) as guest clock events

- Hyper-V "reset" allows guest to reset VM.

- Hyper-V "vendor_id" exposes hypervisor vendor id to guest.

9d243e0895 conf: add 'state' attribute to <hap> feature
Most hypervisors use Hardware Assisted Paging by default and don't
require specifying the feature in domain conf. But some hypervisors
support disabling HAP on a per-domain basis. To enable HAP by default
yet provide a knob to disable it, extend the <hap> feature with a
'state=on|off' attribute, similar to <pvspinlock> and <vmport> features.

In the absence of <hap>, the hypervisor default (on) is used. <hap>
without the state attribute would be the same as <hap state='on'/> for
backwards compatibility. And of course <hap state='off'/> disables hap.

This attribute is used to extend secondary PCI bar and expose it to the
guest as 64bit memory.  It works like this: attribute vram is there to
set size of secondary PCI bar and guest sees it as 32bit memory,
attribute vram64 can extend this secondary PCI bar.  If both attributes
are used, guest sees two memory bars, both address the same memory, with
the difference that the 32bit bar can address only the first part of the
whole memory.

6343018fac rbd: Do not append Ceph monitor port number 6789 if not provided
If no port number was provided for a storage pool libvirt defaults to
port 6789; however, librbd/librados already default to 6789 when no port
number is provided.

In the future Ceph will switch to a new port for the Ceph monitors since
port 6789 is already assigned to a different application by IANA.

Port 6789 is assigned to SMC-HTTPS and Ceph now has port 3300 assigned as
the 'Ceph monitor' port.

In this case it is the best solution to not hardcode any port number into
libvirt and let librados handle the connection.

Only if a user specifies a different port number we pass it down to librados,
otherwise we leave it blank.

Adds a new interface type using UDP sockets, this seems only applicable
to QEMU but have edited tree-wide to support the new interface type.

The interface type required the addition of a "localaddr" (local

<interface type='udp'>
  <mac address='52:54:00:5c:67:56'/>
  <source address='127.0.0.1' port='11112'>
    <local address='127.0.0.1' port='22222'/>
  </source>
  <model type='virtio'/>
  <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
</interface>

QEMU call:
	-net socket,udp=127.0.0.1:11112,localaddr=127.0.0.1:22222

Notice the xml "local" entry becomes the "localaddr" for the qemu call.
