This code is so complicated because we allow enabling the same

enabled by global <hugepages/> element under <memoryBacking> or
on per <memory/> basis. To complicate things a bit more, users
are allowed to omit the page size which case the default page
size is used. And this is what is causing this bug. If no page
size is specified, @pagesize is keeping value of zero throughout
whole function. Therefore we need yet another boolean to hold
[use, don't use] information as we can't sue @pagesize for that.

This patch addresses the same aspects on PPC the bug 1103314 addressed
on x86.
PCI expander bus creates multiple primary PCI busses, where each of these
busses can be assigned a specific NUMA affinity, which, on x86 is
advertised through ACPI on a per-bus basis.
For SPAPR, a PHB's NUMA affinities are assigned on a per-PHB basis, and
there is no mechanism for advertising NUMA affinities to a guest on a
per-bus basis. So, even if qemu-ppc manages to get some sort of multi-bus
topology working using PXB, there is no way to expose the affinities
of these busses to the guest. It can only be exposed on a per-PHB/per-domain
basis.
So patch enables NUMA node tag in pci-root controller on PPC.
The way to set the NUMA node is through the numa_node option of
spapr-pci-host-bridge device. However for the implicit PHB, the only way
to set the numa_node is from the -global option. The -global option applies
to all the PHBs unless explicitly specified with the option on the
respective PHB of CLI. The default PHB has the emulated devices only, so
the patch prevents setting the NUMA node for the default PHB.

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

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'/>

Set the VIR_PCI_CONNECT_AGGREGATE_SLOT flag for pcie-root-ports so
that they will be assigned to all the functions on a slot.
Some qemu test case outputs had to be adjusted due to the
pcie-root-ports now being put on multiple functions.
If there are multiple devices assigned to the different functions of a
single PCI slot, they will not work properly if the device at function
0 doesn't have its "multi" attribute turned on, so it makes sense for
libvirt to turn it on during PCI address assignment. Setting multi
then assures that the new setting is stored in the config (so it will
be used next time the domain is started), preventing any potential
problems in the case that a future change in the configuration
eliminates the devices on all non-0 functions (multi will still be set
for function 0 even though it is the only function in use on the slot,
which has no useful purpose, but also doesn't cause any problems).
(NB: If we were to instead just decide on the setting for
multifunction at runtime, a later removal of the non-0 functions of a
slot would result in a silent change in the guest ABI for the
remaining device on function 0 (although it may seem like an
inconsequential guest ABI change, it *is* a guest ABI change to turn
off the multi bit).)
virtio-pci is the way forward for aarch64 guests: it's faster
and less alien to people coming from other architectures.
Now that guest support is finally getting there (Fedora 24,
CentOS 7.3, Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian testing all support
virtio-pci out of the box), we'd like to start using it by
default instead of virtio-mmio.
Users and applications can already opt-in by explicitly using
<address type='pci'/>
inside the relevant elements, but that's kind of cumbersome and
requires all users and management applications to adapt, which
we'd really like to avoid.
What we can do instead is use virtio-mmio only if the guest
already has at least one virtio-mmio device, and use virtio-pci
in all other situations.
That means existing virtio-mmio guests will keep using the old
addressing scheme, and new guests will automatically be created
using virtio-pci instead. Users can still override the default
in either direction.
Existing tests such as aarch64-aavmf-virtio-mmio and
aarch64-virtio-pci-default already cover all possible
scenarios, so no additions to the test suites are necessary.

For machinetypes with a pci-root bus (all legacy PCI), libvirt will
make a "fake" reservation for one extra slot prior to assigning
addresses to unaddressed PCI endpoint devices in the domain. This will
trigger auto-adding of a pci-bridge for the final device to be
assigned an address *if that device would have otherwise instead been
the last device on the last available pci-bridge*; thus it assures
that there will always be at least one slot left open in the domain's
bus topology for expansion (which is important both for hotplug (since
a new pci-bridge can't be added while the guest is running) as well as
for offline additions to the config (since adding a new device might
otherwise in some cases require re-addressing existing devices, which
we want to avoid)).
It's important to note that for the above case (legacy PCI), we must
check for the special case of all slots on all buses being occupied
*prior to assigning any addresses*, and avoid attempting to reserve
the extra address in that case, because there is no free address in
the existing topology, so no place to auto-add a pci-bridge for
expansion (i.e. it would always fail anyway). Since that condition can
only be reached by manual intervention, this is acceptable.
For machinetypes with pcie-root (Q35, aarch64 virt), libvirt's
methodology for automatically expanding the bus topology is different
- pcie-root-ports are plugged into slots (soon to be functions) of
pcie-root as needed, and the new endpoint devices are assigned to the
single slot in each pcie-root-port. This is done so that the devices
are, by default, hotpluggable (the slots of pcie-root don't support
hotplug, but the single slot of the pcie-root-port does). Since
pcie-root-ports can only be plugged into pcie-root, and we don't
auto-assign endpoint devices to the pcie-root slots, this means
topology expansion doesn't compete with endpoint devices for slots, so
we don't need to worry about checking for all "useful" slots being
free *prior* to assigning addresses to new endpoint devices - as a
matter of fact, if we attempt to reserve the open slots before the
used slots, it can lead to errors.
Instead this patch just reserves one slot for a "future potential"
PCIe device after doing the assignment for actual devices, but only
if the only PCI controller defined prior to starting address
assignment was pcie-root, and only if we auto-added at least one PCI
controller during address assignment. This assures two things:
1) that reserving the open slots will only be done when the domain is
initially defined, never at any time after, and
2) that if the user understands enough about PCI controllers that they
are adding them manually, that we don't mess up their plan by
adding extras - if they know enough to add one pcie-root-port, or
to manually assign addresses such that no pcie-root-ports are
needed, they know enough to add extra pcie-root-ports if they want
them (this could be called the "libguestfs clause", since
libguestfs needs to be able to create domains with as few
devices/controllers as possible).
This is set to reserve a single free port for now, but could be
increased in the future if public sentiment goes in that direction
(it's easy to increase later, but essentially impossible to decrease)
Real Q35 hardware has an ICH9 chip that includes several integrated
devices at particular addresses (see the file docs/q35-chipset.cfg in
the qemu source). libvirt already attempts to put the first two sets
of ich9 USB2 controllers it finds at 00:1D.* and 00:1A.* to match the
real hardware. This patch does the same for the ich9 "HD audio"
device.
The main inspiration for this patch is that currently the *only*
device in a reasonable "workstation" type virtual machine config that
requires a legacy PCI slot is the audio device, Without this patch,
the standard Q35 machine created by virt-manager will have a
dmi-to-pci-bridge and a pci-bridge just for the sound device; with the
patch (and if you change the sound device model from the default
"ich6" to "ich9"), the machine definition constructed by virt-manager
has absolutely no legacy PCI controllers - any legacy PCI devices
(e.g. video and sound) are on pcie-root as integrated devices.
Previously we added a set of EHCI+UHCI controllers to Q35 machines to
mimic real hardware as closely as possible, but recent discussions
have pointed out that the nec-usb-xhci (USB3) controller is much more
virtualization-friendly (uses less CPU), so this patch switches the
default for Q35 machinetypes to add an XHCI instead (if it's
supported, which it of course *will* be).
Since none of the existing test cases left out USB controllers in the
input XML, a new Q35 test case was added which has *no* devices, so
ends up with only the defaults always put in by qemu, plus those added
by libvirt.
