Starting a KVM guest on s390 fails immediately. This is because
"qemu --help" reports -no-acpi even for the s390(x) architecture but
-no-acpi isn't supported there.
Workaround is to remove QEMU_CAPS_NO_ACPI from the capability set
after the version/capability extraction.

If no 'listen' attribute or <listen> element is set in the
guest XML, the default driver configured listen address is
used. There is no way to client applications to determine
what this address is though. When starting the guest, we
should update the live XML to include this default listen
address
This patch adds support for listing all domains into drivers that use
the common virDomainObj implementation: libxl, lxc, openvz, qemu, test,
uml, vmware.
For drivers that don't support managed save images the guests are
treated as if they had none, so filtering guests that do have such an
image on this driver succeeds and produces 0 results.
The two new functions are very similar to the existing functions;
just a matter of different arguments and a call to a different
helper function.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotListNames)
(qemuDomainSnapshotNum, qemuDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames)
(qemuDomainSnapshotNumChildren): Support new flags.
(qemuDomainListAllSnapshots): New functions.
Now that domain listing is a thin wrapper around child listing,
it's easier to have a common entry point. This restores the
hashForEach optimization lost in the previous patch when there
are no snapshots being filtered out of the entire list.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainSnapshotObjListGetNames)
(virDomainSnapshotObjListNum): Add parameter.
(virDomainSnapshotObjListGetNamesFrom)
(virDomainSnapshotObjListNumFrom): Delete.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (domain_conf.h): Drop deleted functions.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotObjListGetNames):
Merge, and (re)add an optimization.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainUndefineFlags)
(qemuDomainSnapshotListNames, qemuDomainSnapshotNum)
(qemuDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames)
(qemuDomainSnapshotNumChildren): Update callers.
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c (qemuMigrationIsAllowed): Likewise.
* src/conf/virdomainlist.c (virDomainListPopulate): Likewise.
This idea was first suggested by Daniel Veillard here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-October/msg00353.html
Now that I am about to add more complexity to snapshot listing, it
makes sense to avoid code duplication and special casing for domain
listing (all snapshots) vs. snapshot listing (descendants); adding
a metaroot reduces the number of code lines by having the domain
listing turn into a descendant listing of the metaroot.
Note that this has one minor pessimization - if we are going to list
ALL snapshots without filtering, then virHashForeach is more efficient
than recursing through the child relationships; restoring that minor
optimization will occur in the next patch.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (_virDomainSnapshotObj)
(_virDomainSnapshotObjList): Repurpose some fields.
(virDomainSnapshotDropParent): Drop unused parameter.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotObjListGetNames)
(virDomainSnapshotObjListCount): Simplify.
(virDomainSnapshotFindByName, virDomainSnapshotSetRelations)
(virDomainSnapshotDropParent): Match new field semantics.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML)
(qemuDomainSnapshotReparentChildren, qemuDomainSnapshotDelete):
Adjust clients.
This patch stores existence of the image in the object. At start of the
daemon the state is checked and then updated in key moments in domain
lifecycle.
With latest changes to qemu-ga success on some commands is not reported
anymore, e.g. guest-shutdown or guest-suspend-*. However, errors are
still being reported. Therefore, we need to find different source of
indication if operation was successful. Events.
Commit 6e769eba made it a runtime error if libvirt was compiled
without yajl support but targets a new enough qemu. But enough
users are hitting this on self-compiled libvirt that it is worth
erroring out at compilation time, rather than an obscure failure
when trying to use the built executable.
* configure.ac: If qemu is requested and -version works, require
yajl when qemu version is new enough.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags): Add
comment.
dump-guest-memory is a new dump mechanism, and it can work when the
guest uses host devices. This patch adds a API to use this new
monitor command.
We will always use json mode if qemu's version is >= 0.15, so I
don't implement the API for text mode.
Libvirt updates the configuration of SPICE server only when something
changes. This is unfortunate when the user wants to disconnect a
existing spice session when the connected attribute is already
"disconnect".
This patch modifies the conditions for calling the password updater to
be called when nothing changes, but the connected attribute is already
"disconnect".
While unescaping the commands the commands passed through to the monitor
function qemuMonitorUnescapeArg() initialized lenght of the input string
to strlen()+1 which is fine for alloc but not for iteration of the
string.
This patch fixes the off-by-one error and drops the pointless check for
a single trailing slash that is automaticaly handled by the default
branch of switch.
A core use case of the hook scripts is to be able to do things
to a guest's network configuration. It is possible to hook into
the 'start' operation for a QEMU guest which runs just before
the guest is started. The TAP devices will exist at this point,
but the QEMU process will not. It can be desirable to have a
'started' hook too, which runs once QEMU has started.
If libvirtd is restarted it will re-populate firewall rules,
but there is no QEMU hook to trigger for existing domains.
This is solved with a 'reconnect' hook.
Finally, if attaching to an external QEMU process there needs
to be an 'attach' hook script.
This all also applies to the LXC driver
* docs/hooks.html.in: Document new operations
* src/util/hooks.c, src/util/hooks.c: Add 'started', 'reconnect'
and 'attach' operations for QEMU. Add 'prepare', 'started',
'release' and 'reconnect' operations for LXC
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c: Add hooks for 'prepare', 'started',
'release' and 'reconnect' operations
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Add hooks for 'started', 'reconnect'
and 'reconnect' operations
Currently, if qemuProcessStart fail at some point, e.g. because
domain being started wants a PCI/USB device already assigned to
a different domain, we jump to cleanup label where qemuProcessStop
is performed. This unconditionally calls virSecurityManagerRestoreAllLabel
which is wrong because the other domain is still using those devices.
However, once we successfully label all devices/paths in
qemuProcessStart() from that point on, we have to perform a rollback
on failure - that is - we have to virSecurityManagerRestoreAllLabel.
The two APIs are rather trivial; based on bits and pieces of other
existing APIs. It leaves the door open for future extension to
qemu to report snapshots without metadata based on reading qcow2
internal snapshot names.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotIsCurrent)
(qemuDomainSnapshotHasMetadata): New functions.
For pseries guest, spapr-vlan and spapr-vty is based
on spapr-vio address. According to model of network
device, the address type should be assigned automatically.
For serial device, serial pty device is recognized as
spapr-vty device, which is also on spapr-vio.
So this patch is to correct the address type of
spapr-vlan and spapr-vty, and build correct
command line of spapr-vty.

When libvirtd is started and there is an unusable/not-connectable
leftover from earlier started machine, it's more reasonable to say
that the machine "crashed" if we know it was started with
"-no-shutdown".
This patch fixes that and also changes the other result (when machine
was started without "-no-shutdown") to "unknown", because the previous
"failed" reason means (according to include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in:174),
that the machine failed to start.
I came across a bug that the command line generated for passthrough
of the host parallel port /dev/parport0 by libvirt for QEMU is incorrect.
It currently produces:
-chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0
-device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0
The first parameter is "tty". It sould be "parport".
If I launch qemu with -chardev parport,... it works as expected.

The problem is that an interface with type='hostdev' will have an
alias of the form "hostdev%d", while the function that looks through
existing netdevs to determine the name to use for a new addition will
fail if there's an existing entry that does not match the form
"net%d".
This is another of the handful of places that need an exception due to
the hybrid nature of <interface type='hostdev'> (which is not exactly
an <interface> or a <hostdev>, but is both at the same time).
If we migrate to fd, spec->fwdType is not MIGRATION_FWD_DIRECT,

The pciDevice structure corresponding to the device being hot-unplugged
was freed after it was "stolen" from activeList. The pointer was still
used for eg-inactive list. This patch removes the free of the structure
and frees it only if reset fails on the device.
When the last reference to a virConnectPtr is released by
libvirtd, it was possible for a deadlock to occur in the
virDomainEventState functions. The virDomainEventStatePtr
holds a reference on virConnectPtr for each registered
callback. When removing a callback, the virUnrefConnect
function is run. If this causes the last reference on the
virConnectPtr to be released, then virReleaseConnect can
be run, which in turns calls qemudClose. This function has
a call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn which is intended
to remove all callbacks associated with the virConnectPtr
instance. This will try to grab a lock on virDomainEventState
but this lock is already held. Deadlock ensues
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7fcbb526a840 (LWP 23185)):
Since each callback associated with a virConnectPtr holds a
reference on virConnectPtr, it is impossible for the qemudClose
method to be invoked while any callbacks are still registered.
Thus the call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn must in fact
be a no-op. Thus it is possible to just remove all trace of
virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn and avoid the deadlock.

If qemuPrepareHostdevUSBDevices fail it will roll back devices added
to the driver list of used devices. However, if it may fail because
the device is being used already. But then again - with roll back.
Therefore don't try to remove a usb device manually if the function
fail. Although, we want to remove the device if any operation
performed afterwards fail.
One of our latest USB device handling patches
05abd1507d introduced a regression.
That is, we first create a temporary list of all USB devices that
are to be used by domain just starting up. Then we iterate over and
check if a device from the list is in the global list of currently
assigned devices (activeUsbHostdevs). If not, we add it there and
continue with next iteration then. But if a device from temporary
list is either taken already or adding to the activeUsbHostdevs fails,
we remove all devices in temp list from the activeUsbHostdevs list.
Therefore, if a device is already taken we remove it from
activeUsbHostdevs even if we should not. Thus, next time we allow
the device to be assigned to another domain.

information per hypervisor, pass the virtualization driver name

This patch lifts the limit of calling thread detection code only on KVM
guests. With upstream qemu the thread mappings are reported also on
non-KVM machines.
QEMU adopted the thread_id information from the kvm branch.
To remain compatible with older upstream versions of qemu the check is
attempted but the failure to detect threads (or even run the monitor
command - on older versions without SMP support) is treated non-fatal
and the code reports one vCPU with pid of the hypervisor (in same
fashion this was done on non-KVM guests).
After a cpu hotplug the qemu driver did not refresh information about
virtual processors used by qemu and their corresponding threads. This
patch forces a re-detection as is done on start of QEMU.
This ensures that correct information is reported by the
virDomainGetVcpus API and "virsh vcpuinfo".
A failure to obtain the thread<->vcpu mapping is treated non-fatal and
the mapping is not updated in a case of failure as not all versions of
QEMU report this in the info cpus command.
This patch changes a switch statement into ifs when handling live vs.
configuration modifications getting rid of redundant code in case when

when failing to attach another usb device to a domain for some reason
which has one use device attached before, the libvirtd crashed.
The crash is caused by null-pointer dereference error in invoking
usbDeviceListSteal passed in NULL value usb variable.
commit 05abd1507d introduces the bug.
Though numad will manage the memory allocation of task dynamically,
it wants management application (libvirt) to pre-set the memory
policy according to the advisory nodeset returned from querying numad,
(just like pre-bind CPU nodeset for domain process), and thus the
performance could benefit much more from it.
This patch introduces new XML tag 'placement', value 'auto' indicates
whether to set the memory policy with the advisory nodeset from numad,
and its value defaults to the value of <vcpu> placement, or 'static'
if 'nodeset' is specified. Example of the new XML tag's usage:
<numatune>
<memory placement='auto' mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
Just like what current "numatune" does, the 'auto' numa memory policy
setting uses libnuma's API too.
If <vcpu> "placement" is "auto", and <numatune> is not specified
explicitly, a default <numatume> will be added with "placement"
set as "auto", and "mode" set as "strict".
The following XML can now fully drive numad:
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no <numatune> is specified.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no 'placement' is specified for
<numatune>.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
And it's also able to control the CPU placement and memory policy
independently. e.g.
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', and <numatune> placement is 'static'
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='strict' nodeset='0-10,^7'/>
</numatune>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'static', and <numatune> placement is 'auto'
<vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-24,^12'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave' placement='auto'/>
</numatume>
A follow up patch will change the XML formatting codes to always output
'placement' for <vcpu>, even it's 'static'.
It turns out that when cgroups are enabled, the use of a block device

When we added the default USB controller into domain XML, we efficiently
broke migration to older versions of libvirt that didn't support USB
controllers at all (0.9.4 and earlier) even for domains that don't use
anything that the older libvirt can't provide. We still want to present
the default USB controller in any XML seen by a user/app but we can
safely remove it from the domain XML used during migration. If we are
migrating to a new enough libvirt, it will add the controller XML back,
while older libvirt won't be confused with it although it will still
tell qemu to create the controller.
Similar approach can be used in the future whenever we find out we
always enabled some kind of device without properly advertising it in
domain XML.
Commit 4c82f09e added a capability check for qemu per-device io
throttling, but only applied it to domain startup. As mentioned
in the previous commit (98cec05), the user can still get an 'internal

only to then be rejected when starting the domain.

When libvirtd is started, we create "libvirt/qemu" directories under
hugetlbfs mount point. Only the "qemu" subdirectory is chowned to qemu
user and "libvirt" remains owned by root. If umask was too restrictive
when libvirtd started, qemu user may lose access to "qemu"
subdirectory. Let's explicitly grant search permissions to "libvirt"
directory for all users.
Currently, qemu GA is not providing 'desc' field for errors like
we are used to from qemu monitor. Therefore, we fall back to this
general 'unknown error' string. However, GA is reporting 'class' which
is not perfect, but much more helpful than generic error string.
Thus we should fall back to class firstly and if even no class
is presented, then we can fall back to that generic string.

With RHEL 6.2, virDomainBlockPull(dom, dev, bandwidth, 0) has a race
with non-zero bandwidth: there is a window between the block_stream
and block_job_set_speed monitor commands where an unlimited amount
of data was let through, defeating the point of a throttle.
This race was first identified in commit a9d3495e, and libvirt was
able to reduce the size of the window for that race. In the meantime,
the qemu developers decided to fix things properly; per this message:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-04/msg03793.html
the fix will be in qemu 1.1, and changes block-job-set-speed to use
a different parameter name, as well as adding a new optional parameter
to block-stream, which eliminates the race altogether.
Since our documentation already mentioned that we can refuse a non-zero
bandwidth for some hypervisors, I think the best solution is to do
just that for RHEL 6.2 qemu, so that the race is obvious to the user
(anyone using stock RHEL 6.2 binaries won't have this patch, and anyone
building their own libvirt with this patch for RHEL can also rebuild
qemu to get the modern semantics, so it is no real loss in behavior).
Meanwhile the code must be fixed to honor actual qemu 1.1 naming.
Rename the parameter to 'modern', since the naming difference now
covers more than just 'async' block-job-cancel. And while at it,
fix an unchecked integer overflow.

QEMU binary is called several times when we probe different kinds of
capabilities the binary supports. This patch introduces new common
helper so that all probes use a consistent way of invoking qemu.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=816662 pointed out
that attempting 'virsh blockpull' on an offline domain gave a
misleading error message about qemu lacking support for the
operation, even when qemu was specifically updated to support it.
The real problem is that we have several capabilities that are
only determined when starting a domain, and therefore are still
clear when first working with an inactive domain (namely, any
capability set by qemuMonitorJSONCheckCommands).
While this patch was able to hoist an existing check in one of the
three culprits, it had to add redundant checks in the other two
places (because you always have to check for an active domain after
obtaining a VM job lock, but the capability bits were being checked
prior to obtaining the job lock).
Someday it would be nice to patch libvirt to cache the set of
capabilities per qemu binary (as determined by inode and timestamp),
rather than re-probing the binary every time a domain is started,
and to teach the cache how to query the monitor during the one
time the probe is made rather than having to wait until a guest
is started; then, a capability probe would succeed even for offline
guests because it just refers to the cache, and the single check for
an active domain after grabbing the job lock would be sufficient.
But since that will involve a lot more coding, I'm happy to go
with this simpler solution for an immediate solution.

Once qemu monitor reports migration has completed, we just closed our
end of the pipe and let migration tunnel die. This generated bogus error
in case we did so before the thread saw EOF on the pipe and migration
was aborted even though it was in fact successful.
With this patch we first wake up the tunnel thread and once it has read
all data from the pipe and finished the stream we close the
filedescriptor.
A small additional bonus of this patch is that real errors reported
inside qemuMigrationIOFunc are not overwritten by virStreamAbort any
more.
When QEMU reported failed or canceled migration, we correctly detected
it but didn't really consider it as an error condition and migration
protocol just went on. Luckily, some of the subsequent steps eventually
failed end we reported an (unrelated and mostly random) error back to
the caller.
In some cases (spotted with broken connection during tunneled migration)
we were overwriting the original error with worse or even misleading
errors generated when we were cleaning up after failed migration.

A "ide-drive" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,

Upstream qemu splitted "ide-drive" into "ide-hd" and "ide-cd"
since commit 1f56e32, and ",media=cdrom" is not required for
ide-cd anymore. "ide-drive" is still supported for backwards

A "scsi-disk" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,

Currently, we have 3 boolean arguments we have to pass

switch to flags instead.
Instead of returning a CPUs list, numad returns NUMA node
list instead, this patch is to convert the node list to
cpumap before affinity setting. Otherwise, the domain
processes will be pinned only to CPU[$numa_cell_num],
which will cause significiant performance losses.
Also because numad will balance the affinity dynamically,
reflecting the cpuset from numad back doesn't make much
sense then, and it may just could produce confusion for
the users. Thus the better way is not to reflect it back
to XML. And in this case, it's better to ignore the cpuset
when parsing XML.
The codes to update the cpuset is removed in this patch
incidentally, and there will be a follow up patch to ignore
the manually specified "cpuset" if "placement" is "auto",
and document will be updated too.

In my testing, I was able to provoke an odd block pull failure:
$ virsh blockpull dom vda --bandwidth 10000
error: Requested operation is not valid: No active operation on device: drive-virtio-disk0
merely by using gdb to artifically wait to do the block job set speed
until after the pull had already finished. But in reality, that should
be a success, since the pull finished before we had a chance to set
speed. Furthermore, using a double job lock is not only annoying, but
a bug in itself - if you do parallel virDomainBlockRebase, and hit
the race window just right, the first call grabs the VM job to start
a fast block job, then the second call grabs the VM job to start
a long-running job with unspecified speed, then the first call finally
regrabs the VM job and sets the speed, which ends up running the
second job under the speed from the first call. By consolidating
things into a single job, we avoid opening that race, as well as reduce
the time between starting the job and changing the speed, for less
likelihood of the speed change happening after block job completion
in the first place.

Without the VIR_DOMAIN_BLOCK_JOB_ABORT_ASYNC flag, libvirt will internally
poll using qemu's "query-block-jobs" API and will not return until the
operation has been completed. API users are advised that this operation
is unbounded and further interaction with the domain during this period
may block. Future patches may refactor things to allow other queries in
parallel with this polling. For older qemu, we synthesize the cancellation
event, since qemu won't generate it.
The choice of polling duration copies from the code in qemu_migration.c.

RHEL 6.2 was released with an early version of block jobs, which only
worked on the qed file format, where the commands were spelled with

The upcoming qemu 1.1 release has fixed these short-comings [1][2]:
the commands now work on multiple file types, are spelled with dash,
and 'block-job-cancel' is asynchronous and emits an event upon conclusion.

The new safe console handling introduced a possibility to deadlock the
qemu driver when a new console connection forcibly disconnects a
previous console stream that belongs to an already closed connection.
The virStreamFree function calls subsequently a the virReleaseConnect
function that tries to lock the driver while discarding the connection,
but the driver was already locked in qemuDomainOpenConsole.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: qemuDomainOpenConsole()
-- unlock the qemu driver right after acquiring the domain

In case an API fails with "cannot acquire state change lock", searching
for the API that possibly forgot to end its job is not always easy.
Let's keep track of the job owner and print it out for easier
identification.
As reported by Daniel Berrangé, we have a huge performance regression
for virDomainGetInfo() due to the change which makes virDomainEndJob()
save the XML status file every time it is called. Previous to that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() took ~2.5 seconds. After that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() take 2 *minutes* 45 secs.
We made the change to be able to recover from libvirtd restart in the
middle of a job. However, only destroy and async jobs are taken care of.
Thus it makes more sense to only save domain state XML when these jobs
are started/stopped.

Leak introduced in commit 0436d32. If we allocate an actions array,
but fail early enough to never consume it with the qemu monitor
transaction call, we leaked memory.
But our semantics of making the transaction command free the caller's
memory is awkward; avoiding the memory leak requires making every
intermediate function in the call chain check for error. It is much
easier to fix things so that the function that allocates also frees,
while the call chain leaves the caller's data intact. To do that,
I had to hack our JSON data structure to make it easy to protect a
portion of an arbitrary JSON tree from being freed.

(_virJSONValue): New field.
* src/util/json.c (virJSONValueFree): Use it to protect a portion

We can tell qemuDomainSnapshotFSThaw if we want it to report errors or
not. However, if we don't want to and an error has been already set by
previous qemuReportError() we must keep copy of that error not just a
pointer to it. Otherwise, it get overwritten if FSThaw reports an error.
If the daemon is restarted it will lose list of active
USB devices assigned to active domains. Therefore we need
to rebuild this list on qemuProcessReconnect().
To prevent assigning one USB device to two domains,
we keep a list of assigned USB devices. On domain
startup - qemuProcessStart() - we insert devices
used by domain into the list but remove them only
on detach-device. Devices are, however, released
on qemuProcessStop() as well.
Originally, qemuDomainCheckEjectableMedia was entering monitor with qemu
driver lock. Commit 2067e31bf9, which I
made to fix that, revealed another issue we had (but didn't notice it
since the driver was locked): we didn't set nested job when
qemuDomainCheckEjectableMedia is called during migration. Thus the
original fix I made was wrong.
Since Xen 3.1 the clock=variable semantic is supported. In addition to
qemu/kvm Xen also knows about a variant where the offset is relative to
'localtime' instead of 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'basis' to specify, if the
offset is relative to 'localtime' or 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'reset' to force the reset
behaviour of 'localtime' and 'utc'; this is needed for backward
compatibility with previous versions of libvirt, since they report
incorrect XML.
Adapt the only user 'qemu' to the new name.
Extend the RelaxNG schema accordingly.
Document the new 'basis' attribute in the HTML documentation.

Previously the only attribute of a network device that could be
modified by virUpdateDeviceFlags() ("virsh update-device") was the
link state; attempts to change any other attribute would log an error
and fail.
This patch adds recognition of a change in bridge device name, and
supports reconnecting the guest's interface to the new device.
Standard audit logs for detaching and attaching a network device are
also generated. Although the current auditing function doesn't log the
bridge being attached to, this will later be changed in a separate
patch.
qemuBuildHostNetStr had a switch-within-a-switch where both were
looking at the same variable. This was apparently to take advantage of
code common to three different cases (while also taking care of some
code that was different). However, there were only 2 lines common to
all, one of those can be eliminated by merging it into the
virAsprintfs that are in each case. On top of that, all the extra
empty cases cause Coverity complaints (because they are unreachable),
but absence of the empty cases causes a compile error due to
"enumeration value not handled in switch".
The solution is to just make each toplevel case independent, folding
in the common code to each.
commit b0e2bb33 set a default value for the SPICE agent channel by
inserting it during parsing of the channel XML. That method of setting
a default is problematic because it makes a format/parse roundtrip
unclean, and experience with setting other values as a side effect of
parsing has led to headaches (e.g. automatically setting a MAC address
in the parser when one isn't specified in the input XML).
This patch does not revert commit b0e2bb33 (it will be reverted in a
separate patch) but adds the alternate implementation of simply
inserting the default value in the appropriate place on the qemu
commandline when no value is provided.

When qemu cannot start, we may call qemuProcessStop() twice.
We have check whether the vm is running at the beginning of
qemuProcessStop() to avoid libvirt deadlock. We call
qemuProcessStop() with driver and vm locked. It seems that
we can avoid libvirt deadlock. But unfortunately we may
unlock driver and vm in the function qemuProcessKill() while
vm->def->id is not -1. So qemuProcessStop() will be run twice,
and monitor will be freed unexpectedly. So we should set
vm->def->id to -1 at the beginning of qemuProcessStop().
In the current V3 migration protocol, Libvirt does not
check the result of the function
qemuMigrationVPAssociatePortProfiles
This means that it is possible for a migration to complete
successfully even when the VM loses network connectivity on
the destination host.
With this change libvirt aborts the migration
(during the "finish" step) when the above function fails, that
is to say when at least one of the port profile associations fails.

Commit d42a2ff caused a regression in creating a disk-only snapshot
of a qcow2 disk; by passing the wrong variable to the monitor call,
libvirt ended up creating JSON that looked like "format":null instead
of the intended "format":"qcow2".
To make it easier to diagnose this in the future, make JSON creation
error out if "s:arg" is paired with NULL (it is still possible to
use "n:arg" in the rare cases where qemu will accept a null).

Found when attempting to build on Fedora 17 alpha with:
./autogen.sh --system --enable-compile-warnings=error
(this same build command works without problem on Fedora 16). Since
the consumer of the qemuProcessReconnectData doesn't assume that the
other fields of the struct are initialized (although it uses them
internally), the simpler solution is to just switch to C99-style
struct initialization (which doesn't require specification of all
fields).
libvirt always adds -Werror-frame-larger-than=4096 to the flags when
it builds. When building on Fedora 17, two functions with multiple
1024 buffers declared inside if {} blocks would generate frame size
errors; apparently the version of gcc on Fedora 16 will merge these
multiple buffers into a single buffer even when optimization is off,
but Fedora 17 won't.
The fix is to declare a single 1024 buffer at the top of the two
offending functions, and reuse the single buffer throughout the
functions.

-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Then checked for nonsense.
The whole command looks like this:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$' | xargs sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
The oVirt developers have stated that the real reasons they want
to have qemu reuse existing volumes when creating a snapshot are:
1. the management framework is set up so that creation has to be
done from a central node for proper resource tracking, and having
libvirt and/or qemu create things violates the framework, and
2. qemu defaults to creating snapshots with an absolute path to
the backing file, but oVirt wants to manage a backing chain that
uses just relative names, to allow for easier migration of a chain
across storage locations.
When 0.9.10 added VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_REUSE_EXT (commit
4e9953a4), it only addressed point 1, but libvirt was still using
O_TRUNC which violates point 2. Meanwhile, the new qemu
'transaction' monitor command includes a new optional mode argument
that will force qemu to reuse the metadata of the file it just
opened (with the burden on the caller to have valid metadata there
in the first place). So, this tweaks the meaning of the flag to
cover both points as intended for use by oVirt. It is not strictly
backward-compatible to 0.9.10 behavior, but it can be argued that
the O_TRUNC of 0.9.10 was a bug.
Note that this flag is all-or-nothing, and only selects between
'existing' and the default 'absolute-paths'. A more flexible
approach that would allow per-disk selections, as well as adding
support for the 'no-backing-file' mode, would be possible by
extending the <domainsnapshot> xml to have a per-disk mode, but
until we have a management application expressing a need for that
additional complexity, it is not worth doing.

The hardest part about adding transactions is not using the new

to a failed transaction.

transaction when available.

QEmu 1.1 is adding a 'transaction' command to the JSON monitor.
Each element of a transaction corresponds to a top-level command,
with the additional guarantee that the transaction flushes all
pending I/O, then guarantees that all actions will be successful
as a group or that failure will roll back the state to what it
was before the monitor command. The difference between a
top-level command:
{ "execute": "blockdev-snapshot-sync", "arguments":
{ "device": "virtio0", ... } }
and a transaction:
{ "execute": "transaction", "arguments":
{ "actions": [
{ "type": "blockdev-snapshot-sync", "data":
{ "device": "virtio0", ... } } ] } }
is just a couple of changed key names and nesting the shorter
command inside a JSON array to the longer command. This patch
just adds the framework; the next patch will actually use a
transaction.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONMakeCommand): Move
guts...
(qemuMonitorJSONMakeCommandRaw): ...into new helper. Add support
for array element.

argument.
(qemuMonitorJSONTransaction): New declaration.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (qemuMonitorTransaction): Likewise.
(qemuMonitorDiskSnapshot): Add argument.

Taking an external snapshot of just one disk is atomic, without having
to pause and resume the VM. This also paves the way for later patches
to interact with the new qemu 'transaction' monitor command.
The various scenarios when requesting atomic are:
online, 1 disk, old qemu - safe, allowed by this patch
online, more than 1 disk, old qemu - failure, this patch
offline snapshot - safe, once a future patch implements offline disk snapshot
online, 1 or more disks, new qemu - safe, once future patch uses transaction
Taking an online system checkpoint snapshot is atomic, since it is
done via a single 'savevm' monitor command. Taking an offline system
checkpoint snapshot is atomic, thanks to the previous patch.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Support
new flag for single-disk setups.
(qemuDomainSnapshotDiskPrepare): Check for atomic here.
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive): Skip pausing the VM when
atomic supported.
(qemuDomainSnapshotIsAllowed): Use bool instead of int.
Offline internal snapshots can be rolled back with just a little
bit of refactoring, meaning that we are now automatically atomic.
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c (qemuDomainSnapshotForEachQcow2): Move
guts...
(qemuDomainSnapshotForEachQcow2Raw): ...to new helper, to allow
rollbacks.
We need a capability bit to gracefully error out if some of the
additions in future patches can't be implemented by the running qemu.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h (QEMU_CAPS_TRANSACTION): New cap.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCaps): Name it.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONCheckCommands): Set
it.
This introduces a new running reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP,
and new suspend event type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
While a wakeup event is emitted, the domain which entered into
VIR_DOMAIN_PMSUSPENDED will be transferred to "running"
with reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP, and a new domain lifecycle
event emitted with type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
SUSPEND:
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_PMSUSPEND
The event doesn't take any data, but considering there might
be reason for wakeup in future, the callback definition is:
typedef void
(*virConnectDomainEventSuspendCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int reason,
void *opaque);
"reason" is unused currently, always passes "0".
This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
WAKEUP:
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_PMWAKEUP
The event doesn't take any data, but considering there might
be reason for wakeup in future, the callback definition is:
typedef void
(*virConnectDomainEventWakeupCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int reason,
void *opaque);
"reason" is unused currently, always passes "0".
This is similiar with physical world, one will be surprised if the
box starts with medium exists while the tray is open.
New tests are added, tests disk-{cdrom,floppy}-tray are for the qemu
supports "-device" flag, and disk-{cdrom,floppy}-no-device-cap are
for old qemu, i.e. which doesn't support "-device" flag.
This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
DEVICE_TRAY_MOVED, which occurs when the tray of a removable
disk is moved (i.e opened or closed):
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_TRAY_CHANGE
The event's data includes the device alias and the reason
for tray status' changing, which indicates why the tray
status was changed. Thus the callback definition for the event
is:
enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_OPEN = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_CLOSE,
\#ifdef VIR_ENUM_SENTINELS
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_TRAY_CHANGE_LAST
\#endif
} virDomainEventTrayChangeReason;
typedef void
(*virConnectDomainEventTrayChangeCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
const char *devAlias,
int reason,
void *opaque);
Since we defined a custom virURIPtr type, we should use a
virURIFree method instead of assuming it will always be
a typedef for xmlURIPtr
* src/util/viruri.c, src/util/viruri.h, src/libvirt_private.syms:
Add a virURIFree method
* src/datatypes.c, src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/libvirt.c,
src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/vmx/vmx.c, src/xen/xend_internal.c,

When a client which started non-p2p migration dies in a bad time, the
source libvirtd never clears the migration job and almost nothing can be
done with the domain without restarting the daemon. This patch makes use
of connection close callbacks and ensures that migration job is properly
discarded when the client disconnects.
Destination daemon should not rely on the client or source daemon
(depending on the type of migration) to call Finish when migration
fails, because the client may crash before it can do so. The domain
prepared for incoming migration is set to be destroyed (and migration
job cleaned up) when connection with the client closes but this is not
enough. If the associated qemu process crashes after Prepare step and
the domain is cleaned up before the connection gets closed, autodestroy
is not called for the domain and migration jobs remains set. In case the
domain is defined on destination host (i.e., it is not completely
removed once destroyed) we keep the job set for ever. To fix this, we
register a cleanup callback which is responsible to clean migration-in
job when a domain dies anywhere between Prepare and Finish steps. Note
that we can't blindly clean any job when spotting EOF on monitor since
normally an API is running at that time.
This reverts commit 61f2b6ba5f and most of
commit d8916dc8e2, which effectively
brings back commit ef1065cf5a written by
Jim Fehlig:
The qemu migration speed default is 32MiB/s as defined in migration.c
/* Migration speed throttling */
static int64_t max_throttle = (32 << 20);
There's no need to throttle migration when targeting a file, so set
migration speed to unlimited prior to migration, and restore to libvirt
default value after migration.
Default units is MB for migrate_set_speed monitor command, so
(INT64_MAX / (1024 * 1024)) is used for unlimited migration speed.
This was reverted because migration to file could not be canceled and
even monitored since qemu was not processing any monitor commands until
the migration finished. This is now different as we make sure the
file descriptor we pass to qemu is able to properly report EAGAIN.
Recent qemu changes might have helped as well.
I tested managedsave with this patch in and indeed, it is 10x faster
while I can still monitor its progress.
If a guest is paused, we were silently ignoring the quiesce flag,
which results in unclean snapshots, contrary to the intent of the
flag. Since we can't quiesce without guest agent support, we should
instead fail if the guest is not running.
Meanwhile, if we attempt a quiesce command, but the guest agent
doesn't respond, and we time out, we may have left the command
pending on the guest's queue, and when the guest resumes parsing
commands, it will freeze even though our command is no longer
around to issue a thaw. To be safe, we must _always_ pair every
quiesce call with a counterpart thaw, even if the quiesce call
failed due to a timeout, so that if a guest wakes up and starts
processing a command backlog, it will not get stuck in a frozen
state.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive):
Always issue thaw after a quiesce, even if quiesce failed.
(qemuDomainSnapshotFSThaw): Add a parameter.
A common coding pattern for changing blkio parameters is
1. virDomainGetBlkioParameters
2. change one or more params
3. virDomainSetBlkioParameters
For this to work, it must be possible to roundtrip through
the methods without error. Unfortunately virDomainGetBlkioParameters
will return "" for the deviceWeight parameter for guests by default,
which virDomainSetBlkioParameters will then reject as invalid.
This fixes the handling of "" to be a no-op, and also improves the
error message to tell you what was invalid
