This is very helpful when we want to log and report why we could not
acquire a state change lock. Reporting what job keeps it locked helps
with understanding the issue. Moreover, after calling
virDomainGetControlInfo, it's possible to tell whether libvirt is just
stuck somewhere within the API (or it just forgot to cleanup the job) or
whether libvirt is waiting for QEMU to reply.
The error message will look like the following:
# virsh resume cd
error: Failed to resume domain cd
error: Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock

Add support to start qemu instance with 'pc-dimm' device. Thanks to the
refactors we are able to reuse the existing function to determine the
parameters.
When using 'dimm' memory devices with qemu, some of the information
like the slot number and base address need to be reloaded from qemu
after process start so that it reflects the actual state. The state then
allows to use memory devices across migrations.
This patch adds code that parses and formats configuration for memory
devices.
A simple configuration would be:
<memory model='dimm'>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>0</node>
</target>
</memory>
A complete configuration of a memory device:
<memory model='dimm'>
<source>
<pagesize unit='KiB'>4096</pagesize>
<nodemask>1-3</nodemask>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>1</node>
</target>
</memory>
This patch preemptively forbids use of the <memory> device in individual
drivers so the users are warned right away that the device is not
supported.
To enable memory hotplug the maximum memory size and slot count need to
be specified. As qemu supports now other units than mebibytes when
specifying memory, use the new interface in this case.
Add a XML element that will allow to specify maximum supportable memory
and the count of memory slots to use with memory hotplug.
To avoid possible confusion and misuse of the new element this patch
also explicitly forbids the use of the maxMemory setting in individual
drivers's post parse callbacks. This limitation will be lifted when the
support is implemented.
When no model is specified in the domain definition for
a scsi controller and the architectur is s390 than virtio-scsi
is set as default model.

Depending on the context, either error out if the domain
has disappeared in the meantime, or just ignore the value
to allow marking the function as ATTRIBUTE_RETURN_CHECK.
The domain might disappear during the time in monitor when
the virDomainObjPtr is unlocked, so the caller needs to check
if it's still alive.
Since most of the callers are going to need it, put the
check inside qemuDomainObjExitMonitor and return -1 if
the domain died in the meantime.
The virDomainDefParse* and virDomainDefFormat* methods both
accept the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags defined in the public API,
along with a set of other VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags
defined in domain_conf.c.
This is seriously confusing & error prone for a number of
reasons:
- VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE and
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU are only relevant for the
formatting operation
- Some of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags only apply
to parse or to format, but not both.
This patch cleanly separates out the flags. There are two
distint VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_* and VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_*
flags that are used by the corresponding methods. The
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags received via public API calls must
be converted to the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags where
needed.
The various calls to virDomainDefParse which hardcoded the
use of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE flag change to use the
VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_INACTIVE flag.
The default value should be 16 MiB instead of 8 MiB. Only really old
version of upstream QEMU used the 8 MiB as default for vga framebuffer.
Without this change if you update your libvirt where we introduced the
"vgamem" attribute for QXL video device the value will be set to 8 MiB,
but previously your guest had 16 MiB because we didn't pass any value to
QEMU command line which means QEMU used its own 16 MiB as default.
This will affect all users with guest's display resolution higher than
1920x1080.

In commit 540c339a25 the whole domain
reference counting was refactored in the qemu driver. Domain jobs now
don't need to reference the domain object as they now expect the
reference from the calling function.
However, the patch forgot to remove the unref call in case we exit the
monitor when we were acquiring a nested job. This caused the daemon to
crash on a subsequent access to the domain object once we've done an
operation requiring a nested job for a monitor access.
An easy reproducer case:
1) Start a vm with qcow disks
2) virsh snapshot-create-as DOMNAME
3) virsh dumpxml DOMNAME
4) daemon crashes in a semi-random spot while accessing a now-removed VM
object.
Fortunately, the commit wasn't released yet, so there are no security
implications.

There is one problem that causes various errors in the daemon. When
domain is waiting for a job, it is unlocked while waiting on the
condition. However, if that domain is for example transient and being
removed in another API (e.g. cancelling incoming migration), it get's
unref'd. If the first call, that was waiting, fails to get the job, it
unref's the domain object, and because it was the last reference, it
causes clearing of the whole domain object. However, when finishing the
call, the domain must be unlocked, but there is no way for the API to
know whether it was cleaned or not (unless there is some ugly temporary
variable, but let's scratch that).
The root cause is that our APIs don't ref the objects they are using and
all use the implicit reference that the object has when it is in the
domain list. That reference can be removed when the API is waiting for
a job. And because each domain doesn't do its ref'ing, it results in
the ugly checking of the return value of virObjectUnref() that we have
everywhere.
This patch changes qemuDomObjFromDomain() to ref the domain (using
virDomainObjListFindByUUIDRef()) and adds qemuDomObjEndAPI() which
should be the only function in which the return value of
virObjectUnref() is checked. This makes all reference counting
deterministic and makes the code a bit clearer.

As of b6d4dad11b (1.2.5) we are trying to keep the status of FSFreeze
in the guest. Even though I've tried to fixed couple of corner cases
(6ea54769ba), it occurred to me just recently, that the approach is
broken by design. Firstly, there are many other ways to talk to
qemu-ga (even through libvirt) that filesystems can be thawed (e.g.
qemu-agent-command) without libvirt noticing. Moreover, there are
plenty of ways to thaw filesystems without even qemu-ga noticing (yes,
qemu-ga keeps internal track of FSFreeze status). So, instead of
keeping the track ourselves, or asking qemu-ga for stale state, it's
the best to let qemu-ga deal with that (and possibly let guest kernel
propagate an error).
Moreover, there's one bug with the following approach, if fsfreeze
command failed, we've executed fsthaw subsequently. So issuing
domfsfreeze in virsh gave the following result:
virsh # domfsfreeze gentoo
Froze 1 filesystem(s)
virsh # domfsfreeze gentoo
error: Unable to freeze filesystems
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU agent command 'guest-fsfreeze-freeze': The command guest-fsfreeze-freeze has been disabled for this instance

When one domain is being undefined and at the same time started, for
example, there is a possibility of a rare problem occuring.
- Thread 1 does virDomainUndefine(), has the lock, checks that the
domain is active and because it's not, calls
virDomainObjListRemove().
- Thread 2 does virDomainCreate() and tries to lock the domain.
- Thread 1 needs to lock domain list in order to remove the domain from
it, but must unlock domain first (proper order is to lock domain list
first and the domain itself second).
- Thread 2 grabs the lock, starts the domain and releases the lock.
- Thread 1 grabs the lock and removes the domain from list.
With this patch:
- qemuDomainRemoveInactive() creates a QEMU_JOB_MODIFY if that's
possible, but since it must remove the domain from list either way,
it continues even when starting the job failed.

Since 363e9a68 we track backing chain metadata when creating snapshots
the right way even for the inactive configuration. As we did not yet
update other code paths that modify the backing chain (blockpull) the
newDef backing chain gets out of sync.
After stopping of a VM the new definition gets copied to the next start
one. The new VM then has incorrect backing chain info. This patch
switches the backing chain detector to always purge the existing backing
chain and forces re-detection to avoid this issue until we'll have full
backing chain tracking support.

Request erroring out from the backing chain traveller and drop qemu's
internal backing chain integrity tester.
The backing chain traveller reports errors by itself with possibly more
detail than qemuDiskChainCheckBroken ever could.
We also need to make sure that we reconnect to existing qemu instances
even at the cost of losing the backing chain info (this really should be
stored in the XML rather than reloaded from disk, but that needs some
work).
Add a new parameter to virStorageFileGetMetadata that will break the
backing chain detection process and report useful error message rather
than having to use virStorageFileChainGetBroken.
This patch just introduces the option, usage will be provided
separately.

Total time of a migration and total downtime transfered from a source to
a destination host do not count with the transfer time to the
destination host and with the time elapsed before guest CPUs are
resumed. Thus, source libvirtd remembers when migration started and when
guest CPUs were paused. Both timestamps are transferred to destination
libvirtd which uses them to compute total migration time and total
downtime. Obviously, this requires the time to be synchronized between
the two hosts. The reported times are useless otherwise but they would
be equally useless if we didn't do this recomputation so don't lose
anything by doing it.

During a QEMU live migration several warning messages about job

This patch passes the required asyncJob value around and prevents
