To be able to express some use cases of the RBD backing with libvirt, we
need to be able to specify a config file for the RBD client to qemu as
that is one of the commonly used options.
Some storage systems have internal support for snapshots. Libvirt should
be able to select a correct snapshot when starting a VM.
This patch adds a XML element to select a storage source snapshot for
the RBD protocol which supports this feature.
On my machine, a guest fails to boot if it has a sound card, but not
graphical device/display is configured, because pulseaudio fails to
initialize since it can't access $HOME.
A workaround is removing the audio device, however on ARM boards there
isn't any option to do that, so -nographic always fails.
Set QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none if no <graphics> are configured. Unfortunately
this has massive test suite fallout.
Add a qemu.conf parameter nographics_allow_host_audio, that if enabled
will pass through QEMU_AUDIO_DRV from sysconfig (similar to
vnc_allow_host_audio)
Use the qemu specific callback to fill this data in the qemu driver as
it's the only place where it was used and fix tests as the qemu test
capability object didn't configure the defaults for the tests.
Without this patch, logged command executions can be ambiguous if
the command contained any shell metacharacters. This has caused
more than one person to attempt to patch clients to add unnecessary
quoting, without realizing that the command itself was run with
correct args, and only the logged output was ambiguous.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandToString): Add shell escapes.
* tests/commandtest.c (test16): Test new behavior.
* tests/commanddata/test16.log: Update expected output.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-*.args: Likewise.
* tests/networkxml2argvdata/*.argv: Likewise.
This improves the support for qemu rbd devices by adding support for a few
key features (e.g., authentication) and cleaning up the way in which
rbd configuration options are passed to qemu.
An <auth> member of the disk source xml specifies how librbd should
authenticate. The username attribute is the Ceph/RBD user to authenticate as.
The usage or uuid attributes specify which secret to use. Usage is an
arbitrary identifier local to libvirt.
The old RBD support relied on setting an environment variable to
communicate information to qemu/librbd. Instead, pass those options
explicitly to qemu. Update the qemu argument parsing and tests
accordingly.

This patch teaches testutil how to read multi-line input files with
backspace-newline line continuation markers.
The patch also breaks up all the single-line arguments test input files into
multi-line files with lines shorter than 80 characters.
