bf34dee966 docs: downloads: remove reference to git://
With the introduction of smart HTTP protocol in git 1.6.6,
the only advantage of plain git:// over https:// is not
having the encryption overhead.

Remove the reference to git://, assuming the overhead
is neligible compared to the value of screen space
on the downloads page.

ed7affb2bf docs: downloads: remove links to libvirt.org mirrors
While the mirrors themselves are still available, the gitweb
interface on libvirt.org has been disabled.

The mirrors can still be accessible via, e.g.:

  git clone https://libvirt.org/git/libvirt-python.git

But such link gives a 404 error. Remove the links from the website
to avoid confusion.

54814c87f3 docs: Fix template matching in page.xsl
Our last default template had a match of "node()" which incidentally matched
everything, including text nodes.  Since this has the same priority according to
the XSLT spec, section 5.5:

  https://www.w3.org/TR/1999/REC-xslt-19991116#conflict

this is an error.  Also according to the same spec section, the XSLT processor
may signal the error or pick the last rule.

This was uncovered with libxslt 1.1.35 which contains the following commit:

  b0074eeca3

which makes the build fail with:

  runtime error: file ../docs/page.xsl line 223 element element
  xsl:element: The effective name '' is not a valid QName.

because our last rule also matches text nodes and we are trying to extract the
node name out of them.

To fix this we change the match to "*" which only matches elements and not all
the nodes, and to avoid any possible errors with different XSLT processors we
also bump the priority of the match="text()" rule a little higher, just in case
someone needs to use an XSLT processor that chooses signalling the error instead
of the optional recovery.

An update to meson 0.61.1 meant that it started showing warnings due to the fact
that the default for run_command's 'check' parameter is going to change.  It
unveiled the fact that we were even missing that parameter in some calls where
we expected different outcome.  To make sure the behaviour does not change
specify the parameter explicitly.  In places where we check for the return code
the parameter should be 'false' so that meson does not fail.  In all other cases
the parameter should be set to 'true' to make sure possible failure also stops
meson.

The warning in meson was added in https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson/pull/9304

f3b422d9cc docs: Clarify 'burst' units for QoS
The burst attribute for bandwidth specifies how much bytes can be
transmitted in a single burst. Therefore, the unit is in
multiples of 1024 (thus kibibytes) not SI-like 1000. It has
always been like that.

The 'tc' output is still confusing though, for instance:

  # tc class add dev $DEV parent 1: classid 1:1 htb rate 1000kbps burst 2097152
  # tc class show dev vnet2
  class htb 1:1 root rate 8Mbit ceil 8Mbit burst 2Mb cburst 1600b

Please note that 2097152 = 2*1024*1024. Even the man page is
confusing. From tc(8):

  kb or k        Kilobytes
  mb or m        Megabytes

But I guess this is because 'tc' predates IEC standardisation of
binary multiples and thus can't change without breaking scripts
parsing its output.

And while at it, adjust _virNetDevBandwidthRate struct member
description, to make it obvious which members use SI/IEC units.

into 32 subcluster allocation units. This allows the allocation units to

06f405c627 qemu: Explicitly forbid live changing nodeset for strict numatune
Let's imagine a guest that's configured with strict numatune:

  <numatune>
    <memory mode='strict' nodeset='0'/>
  </numatune>

For guests with NUMA:
Depending on machine type used (see commit v6.4.0-rc1~75) we
generate either:

  1) -object '{"qom-type":"memory-backend-ram","id":"ram-node0",\
               "size":20971520,"host-nodes":[0],"policy":"preferred"}' \
     -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0,memdev=ram-node0

or

  2) -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0,mem=20480

Later, when QEMU boots up and cpuset CGroup controller is
available we further restrict QEMU there too. But there's a
behaviour difference hidden: while in case 1) QEMU is restricted
from beginning, in case 2) it is not and thus it may happen that
it will allocate memory from different NUMA node and even though
CGroup will try to migrate it, it may fail to do so (e.g. because
memory is locked). Therefore, one can argue that case 2) is
broken. NB, case 2) is exactly what mode 'restrictive' is for.
However, in case 1) we are unable to update QEMU with new
host-nodes, simply because it's lacking a command to do so.

For guests without NUMA:
It's very close to case 2) from above. We have commit
v7.10.0-rc1~163 that prevents us from outputting host-nodes when
generating memory-backend-* for system memory, but that simply
allows QEMU to allocate memory anywhere and then relies on
CGroups to move it to desired location.

Due to all of this, there is no reliable way to change nodeset
for mode 'strict'. Let's forbid it.

cd4e917760 conf: add support for setting SEV kernel hashes
Normally the SEV measurement only covers the firmware
loader contents. When doing a direct kernel boot, however,
with new enough OVMF it is possible to ask for the
measurement to cover the kernel, ramdisk and command line.

It can't be done automatically as that would break existing
guests using direct kernel boot with old firmware, so there
is a new XML setting allowing this behaviour to be toggled.
