0c234889c4 storage: Introduce virStorageVolInfoFlags
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1332019

This function will essentially be a wrapper to virStorageVolInfo in order
to provide a mechanism to have the "physical" size of the volume returned
instead of the "allocation" size. This will provide similar capabilities to
the virDomainBlockInfo which can return both allocation and physical of a
domain storage volume.

NB: Since we're reusing the _virStorageVolInfo and not creating a new
_virStorageVolInfoFlags structure, we'll need to generate the rpc APIs
remoteStorageVolGetInfoFlags and remoteDispatchStorageVolGetInfoFlags
(although both were originally created from gendispatch.pl and then
just copied into daemon/remote.c and src/remote/remote_driver.c).

The new API will allow the usage of a VIR_STORAGE_VOL_GET_PHYSICAL flag
and will make the decision to return the physical or allocation value
into the allocation field.

In order to get that physical value, virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD
adds logic to fill in physical value matching logic in qemuStorageLimitsRefresh
used by virDomainBlockInfo when the domain is inactive.

fa5c5580d6 Introduce virNodeAllocPages
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away it has been decided
that libvirt will manage not only domains but host as well. And
with my latest work on qemu driver supporting huge pages, we miss
the cherry on top: an API to allocate huge pages on the run.
Currently users are forced to log into the host and adjust the
huge pages pool themselves.  However, with this API the problem
is gone - they can both size up and size down the pool.

993fa528a6 blockcopy: virDomainBlockCopy with XML destination, typed params
This commit (finally) adds the virDomainBlockCopy API, with the
intent that it will provide more power to the existing 'virsh
blockcopy' command.

'virsh blockcopy' was first added in Apr 2012 (v0.9.12), which
corresponds to the upstream qemu 1.2 timeframe.  It was done as
a hack on top of the existing virDomainBlockRebase() API call,
for two reasons: 1) it was targetting a feature that landed first
in downstream RHEL qemu, but had not stabilized in upstream qemu
at the time (and indeed, 'drive-mirror' only landed upstream in
qemu 1.3 with slight differences to the first RHEL attempt,
and later gained further parameters like granularity and buf-size
that are also worth exposing), and 2) extending an existing API
allowed it to be backported without worrying about bumping .so
versions.  A virDomainBlockCopy() API was proposed at that time
[1], but we decided not to accept it into libvirt until after
upstream qemu stabilized, and it ended up getting scrapped.
Whether or not RHEL should have attempted adding a new feature
without getting it upstream first is a debate that can be held
another day; but enough time has now elapsed that we are ready to
do the interface cleanly.

[1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-April/msg00768.html

Delaying the creation of a clean API until now has also had a
benefit: we've only recently learned of a few shortcomings in the
original design: 1) it is unable to target a network destination
(such as a gluster volume) because it hard-coded the assumption
that the destination is a local file name.  Because of all the
refactoring we've done to add virStorageSourcePtr, we are in a
better position to declare an API that parses XML describing a
host storage source as the copy destination, which was not
possible had we implemented virDomainBlockCopy as it had been
originally envisioned (although a network target will have to wait
until a later libvirt release compared to the API addition to
actually be implemented).  2) the design of using MiB/sec as the
bandwidth throttle is rather coarse; qemu is actually tuned to
bytes/second, and libvirt is preventing access to that level of
detail.  A later patch will add flags to existing block job API
that can request bytes/second instead of back-compat MiB/s, but as
this is a new API, we can get it right to begin with.

At least I had the foresight to create 'virsh blockcopy' as a
separate command at the UI level (commit 1f06c00) rather than
leaking the underlying API overload of virDomainBlockRebase onto
shell users.

A further note on the bandwidth option: virTypedParameters
intentionally lacks unsigned long (since variable-width
interaction between mixed 32- vs. 64-bit client/server setups is
nasty), but we have to deal with the fact that we are interacting
with existing older code that mistakenly chose unsigned long
bandwidth at a point before we decided to prohibit it in all new
API.  The typed parameter is therefore unsigned long long, but
the implementation (in a later patch) will have to do overflow
detection on 32-bit platforms, as well as capping the value to
match the LLONG_MAX>>20 cap of the existing MiB/s interfaces.

76a5bc4eef lib: Introduce API for retrieving bulk domain stats
The motivation for this API is that management layers that use libvirt
usually poll for statistics using various split up APIs we currently
provide. To get all the necessary stuff, the app needs to issue a lot of
calls and aggregate the results.

The APIs I'm introducing here:
1) Returns data in a format that we can expand in the future and is
(pseudo) hierarchical. The data is returned as typed parameters where
the fields are constructed as dot-separated strings containing names and
other stuff in a list of typed params.

2) Stats for multiple (all) domains can be queried at once and are
returned in one call. This will decrease the overhead necessary to issue
multiple calls per domain multiplied by the count of domains.

3) Selectable (bit mask) fields in the returned format. This will allow
to retrieve only specific stats according to the app's need.

The stats groups will be enabled using a bit field @stats passed as the
function argument. A few sample stats groups that this API will support:

VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_CPU
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_BLOCK
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_INTERFACE

(Note that this is only an example, the initial implementation supports
 only VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE while others will be added later.)

the returned typed params will use the following scheme

state.state = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING
state.reason = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_BOOTED (the actual values according to
                                          the enum)
cpu.count = 8
cpu.0.state = running
cpu.0.time = 1234

* virNetworkGetDHCPLeases: returns the dhcp leases information for a given

  For DHCPv4, the information returned:
  - Network Interface Name
  - Expiry Time
  - MAC address
  - IAID (NULL)
  - IPv4 address (with type and prefix)
  - Hostname (can be NULL)
  - Client ID (can be NULL)

  For DHCPv6, the information returned:
  - Network Interface Name
  - Expiry Time
  - MAC address
  - IAID (can be NULL, only in rare cases)
  - IPv6 address (with type and prefix)
  - Hostname (can be NULL)
  - Client DUID

  Note: @mac, @iaid, @ipaddr, @clientid are in ASCII form, not raw bytes.
  Note: @expirytime can 0, in case the lease is for infinite time.

* virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC: returns the dhcp leases information for a
     given virtual network and specified MAC Address.

* virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree: allows the upper layer application to free the
     network interface object conveniently.

There is no support for flags, so user is expected to pass 0 for
both the APIs.

d76227bea3 Introduce new domain create APIs to pass pre-opened FDs to LXC
With container based virt, it is useful to be able to pass
pre-opened file descriptors to the container init process.
This allows for containers to be auto-activated from incoming
socket connections, passing the active socket into the container.

To do this, introduce a pair of new APIs, virDomainCreateXMLWithFiles
and virDomainCreateWithFiles, which accept an array of file
descriptors. For the LXC driver, UNIX file descriptor passing
will be used to send them to libvirtd, which will them pass
them down to libvirt_lxc, which will then pass them to the container
init process.

This will only be implemented for LXC right now, but the design
is generic enough it could work with other hypervisors, hence
I suggest adding this to libvirt.so, rather than libvirt-lxc.so

backward compatible and will automatically use older migration calls in
case the new calls are not supported as long as the typed parameters
array does not contain any parameter which was not supported by the

communication channel between a guest and a libvirt client.

This behaves the same as virDomainOpenConsole, except on channels
instead of console/serial/parallel devices.

46c329bcc5 Add virDomainSendProcessSignal API
Add an API for sending signals to arbitrary processes in the
guest OS. This is primarily useful for container based virt,
but can be used for machine virt too, if there is a suitable
guest agent,

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Add virDomainSendProcessSignal
  and virDomainProcessSignal enum
* src/driver.h: Driver entry point
* src/libvirt.c, src/libvirt_public.syms: Impl for new API

0fbf3704fd Introduce virDomainFSTrim() public API
This will call FITRIM within guest. The API has 4 arguments,
however, only 2 will be used for now (@dom and @minumum).
The rest two are there if in future qemu guest agent learns them.

7ecc1d814a virNodeGetCPUMap: Define public API.
Adding a new API to obtain information about the
host node's present, online and offline CPUs.

int virNodeGetCPUMap(virConnectPtr conn,
                     unsigned char **cpumap,
                     unsigned int *online,
                     unsigned int flags);

The function will return the number of CPUs present on the host
or -1 on failure;
If cpumap is non-NULL virNodeGetCPUMap will allocate an array
containing a bit map representation of the online CPUs. It's
the callers responsibility to deallocate cpumap using free().
If online is non-NULL, the variable pointed to will contain
the number of online host node CPUs.
The variable flags has been added to support future extensions
and must be set to 0.

Extend the driver structure by nodeGetCPUMap entry in support of the
new API virNodeGetCPUMap.
Added implementation of virNodeGetCPUMap to libvirt.c

574b9bc66b network: define new API virNetworkUpdate
This patch adds a new public API virNetworkUpdate that will permit
updating an existing network configuration without requiring that the
network be destroyed/restarted for the changes to take effect.
