Newer QEMU introduced cache=directsync for -drive, this patchset
is to expose it in libvirt layer.
* Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_DIRECTSYNC),
As even $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't known if directsync
is supported.
After supporting multi function pci device, we only reserve function 1 on slot 1.
The user can use the other function on slot 1 in the xml config file. We should
detect this wrong usage.
Changing the current vm, and writing that change to the file
system, all before a new qemu starts, is risky; it's hard to
roll back if starting the new qemu fails for some reason.
Instead of abusing vm->current_snapshot and making the command
line generator decide whether the current snapshot warrants
using -loadvm, it is better to just directly pass a snapshot all
the way through the call chain if it is to be loaded.
This frees up the last use of snapshot->def->active for qemu's
use, so the next patch can repurpose that field for tracking
which snapshot is current.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildCommandLine): Don't use active
field of snapshot.
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessStart): Add a parameter.
* src/qemu/qemu_process.h (qemuProcessStart): Update prototype.

In some versions of qemu, both virtio-blk-pci and virtio-net-pci
devices can have an event_idx setting that determines some details of
event processing. When it is enabled, it "reduces the number of
interrupts and exits for the guest". qemu will automatically enable
this feature when it is available, but there may be cases where this
new feature could actually make performance worse (NB: no such case
has been found so far).
As a safety switch in case such a situation is encountered in the
field, this patch adds a new attribute "event_idx" to the <driver>
element of both disk and interface devices. event_idx can be set to
"on" (to force event_idx on in case qemu has it disabled by default)
or "off" (for force event_idx off). In the case that event_idx support
isn't present in qemu, the attribute is ignored (this on the advice of
the qemu developer).

The following XML:
<serial type='udp'>

</serial>
is accepted by domain_conf.c but maps to the qemu command line:
-chardev udp,host=127.0.0.1,port=2222,localaddr=(null),localport=(null)
qemu can cope with everything omitting except the connection port, which
seems to also be the intent of domain_conf validation, so let's not
generate bogus command lines for that case.
The defaults are empty strings for addresses and 0 for the localport
Additionally, tweak the qemu cli parsing to handle omitted host
parameters
for -serial udp
Quite a few leaks detected by coverity. For chr, the leaks were
close enough to the allocations to plug in place; for disk, the
leaks were separated from the allocation by enough other lines with
intermediate failure cases that I refactored the cleanup instead.

Suggested by Laine Stump.
The domain XML now understands the <listen> subelement of its
<graphics> element (including when listen type='network'), and the
network driver has an internal API that will turn a network name into
an IP address, so the final logical step is to put the glue into the
qemu driver so that when it is starting up a domain, if it finds
<listen type='network' network='xyz'/> in the XML, it will call the
network driver to get an IPv4 address associated with network xyz, and
tell qemu to listen for vnc (or spice) on that address rather than the
default address (localhost).
The motivation for this is that a large installation may want the
guests' VNC servers listening on physical interfaces rather than
localhost, so that users can connect directly from the outside; this
requires sending qemu the appropriate IP address to listen on. But
this address will of course be different for each host, and if a guest
might be migrated around from one host to another, it's important that
the guest's config not have any information embedded in it that is
specific to one particular host. <listen type='network.../> can solve
this problem in the following manner:
1) on each host, define a libvirt network of the same name,
associated with the interface on that host that should be used
for listening (for example, a simple macvtap network: <forward
mode='bridge' dev='eth0'/>, or host bridge network: <forward
mode='bridge'/> <bridge name='br0'/>
2) in the <graphics> element of each guest's domain xml, tell vnc to
listen on the network name used in step 1:
<graphics type='vnc' port='5922'>
<listen type='network'network='example-net'/>
</graphics>
(all the above also applies for graphics type='spice').
Once it's plugged in, the <listen> element will be an optional
replacement for the "listen" attribute that graphics elements already
have. If the <listen> element is type='address', it will have an
attribute called 'address' which will contain an IP address or dns
name that the guest's display server should listen on. If, however,
type='network', the <listen> element should have an attribute called
'network' that will be set to the name of a network configuration to
get the IP address from.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: updated to allow the <listen> element
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: document the <listen> element and its
attributes.
* src/conf/domain_conf.[hc]:
1) The domain parser, formatter, and data structure are modified to
support 0 or more <listen> subelements to each <graphics>
element. The old style "legacy" listen attribute is also still
accepted, and will be stored internally just as if it were a
separate <listen> element. On output (i.e. format), the address
attribute of the first <listen> element of type 'address' will be
duplicated in the legacy "listen" attribute of the <graphic>
element.
2) The "listenAddr" attribute has been removed from the unions in
virDomainGRaphicsDef for graphics types vnc, rdp, and spice.
This attribute is now in the <listen> subelement (aka
virDomainGraphicsListenDef)
3) Helper functions were written to provide simple access
(both Get and Set) to the listen elements and their attributes.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export the listen helper functions
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c,
src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c,
src/vmx/vmx.c, src/xenxs/xen_sxpr.c, src/xenxs/xen_xm.c
Modify all these files to use the listen helper functions rather
than directly referencing the (now missing) listenAddr
attribute. There can be multiple <listen> elements to a single
<graphics>, but the drivers all currently only support one, so all
replacements of direct access with a helper function indicate index
"0".
* tests/* - only 3 of these are new files added explicitly to test the
new <listen> element. All the others have been modified to reflect
the fact that any legacy "listen" attributes passed in to the domain
parse will be saved in a <listen> element (i.e. one of the
virDomainGraphicsListenDefs), and during the domain format function,
both the <listen> element as well as the legacy attributes will be
output.
Every DomainNetDef has a bandwidth, as does every portgroup.
Whenever a DomainNetDef of type NETWORK is about to be used, a call is
made to networkAllocateActualDevice(). This function chooses the "best"
bandwidth object and places it in the DomainActualNetDef.
From that point on, whenever some code needs to use the bandwidth data
for the interface, it's retrieved with virDomainNetGetActualBandwidth(),
which will always return the "best" info as determined in the
previous step.
The network driver needs to assign physical devices for use by modes
that use macvtap, keeping track of which physical devices are in use
(and how many instances, when the devices can be shared). Three calls
are added:
networkAllocateActualDevice - finds a physical device for use by the
domain, and sets up the virDomainActualNetDef accordingly.
networkNotifyActualDevice - assumes that the domain was already
running, but libvirtd was restarted, and needs to be notified by each
already-running domain about what interfaces they are using.
networkReleaseActualDevice - decrements the usage count of the
allocated physical device, and frees the virDomainActualNetDef to
avoid later accidentally using the device.
bridge_driver.[hc] - the new APIs. When WITH_NETWORK is false, these
functions are all #defined to be "0" in the .h file (effectively
becoming a NOP) to prevent link errors.
qemu_(command|driver|hotplug|process).c - add calls to the above APIs
in the appropriate places.
tests/Makefile.am - we need to include libvirt_driver_network.la
whenever libvirt_driver_qemu.la is linked, to avoid unreferenced
symbols (in functions that are never called by the test
programs...)
The qemu driver accesses fields in the virDomainNetDef directly, but
with the advent of the virDomainActualNetDef, some pieces of
information may be found in a different place (the ActualNetDef) if
the network connection is of type='network' and that network is of
forward type='bridge|private|vepa|passthrough'. The previous patch
added functions to mask this difference from callers - they hide the
decision making process and just pick the value from the proper place.
This patch uses those functions in the qemu driver as a first step in
making qemu work with the new network types. At this point, the
virDomainActualNetDef is guaranteed always NULL, so the GetActualX()
function will return exactly what the def->X that's being replaced
would have returned (ie bisecting is not compromised).
There is one place (in qemu_driver.c) where the internal details of
the NetDef are directly manipulated by the code, so the GetActual
functions cannot be used there without extra additional code; that
file will be treated in a separate patch.
The virtPortProfile in the domain interface struct is now a separately
allocated object *pointed to by* (rather than contained in) the main
virDomainNetDef object. This is done to make it easier to figure out
when a virtualPortProfile has/hasn't been specified in a particular
config.
Since libvirt is multi-threaded, we should use FD_CLOEXEC as much
as possible in the parent, and only relax fds to inherited after
forking, to avoid leaking an fd created in one thread to a fork
run in another thread. This gets us closer to that ideal, by
making virCommand automatically clear FD_CLOEXEC on fds intended
for the child, as well as avoiding a window of time with non-cloexec
pipes created for capturing output.
* src/util/command.c (virExecWithHook): Use CLOEXEC in parent. In
child, guarantee that all fds to pass to child are inheritable.
(getDevNull): Use CLOEXEC.
(prepareStdFd): New helper function.
(virCommandRun, virCommandRequireHandshake): Use pipe2.

Given a PID, the QEMU driver reads /proc/$PID/cmdline and
/proc/$PID/environ to get the configuration. This is fed
into the ARGV->XML convertor to build an XML configuration
for the process.
/proc/$PID/exe is resolved to identify the full command
binary path
After checking for name/uuid uniqueness, an attempt is
made to connect to the monitor socket. If successful
then 'info status' and 'info kvm' are issued to determine
whether the CPUs are running and if KVM is enabled.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Implement virDomainQemuAttach
* src/qemu/qemu_process.h, src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Add
qemuProcessAttach to connect to the monitor of an
existing QEMU process
To enable attaching to externally launched QEMU, we need
to be able to reverse engineer a guest XML config based
on the argv for a PID in /proc
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/qemu/qemu_command.h: Add
qemuParseCommandLinePid which extracts QEMU config from
argv in /proc, given a PID number
When converting QEMU argv into a virDomainDefPtr, also extract
the pidfile, monitor character device config and the monitor

This patch creates new <bios> element which, at this time has only the

Serial Graphics Adapter and see BIOS messages from the very first moment
domain boots up. Therefore, users can choose boot medium, set PXE, etc.
Coverity warns if the majority of callers check a function for
errors, but a few don't; but in qemu_audit and qemu_domain, the
choice to not check for failures was safe. In qemu_command, the
failure to generate a uuid can only occur on a bad pointer.

* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuParseCommandLine): Check for error.
The 'function' field in the PCI address was not correctly

For controlled shutdown we issue a 'system_powerdown' command
to the QEMU monitor. This triggers an ACPI event which (most)
guest OS wire up to a controlled shutdown. There is no equiv
ACPI event to trigger a controlled reboot. This patch attempts
to fake a reboot.
- In qemuDomainObjPrivatePtr we have a bool fakeReboot
flag.
- The virDomainReboot method sets this flag and then
triggers a normal 'system_powerdown'.
- The QEMU process is started with '-no-shutdown'
so that the guest CPUs pause when it powers off the
guest
- When we receive the 'POWEROFF' event from QEMU JSON
monitor if fakeReboot is not set we invoke the
qemuProcessKill command and shutdown continues
normally
- If fakeReboot was set, we spawn a background thread
which issues 'system_reset' to perform a warm reboot
of the guest hardware. Then it issues 'cont' to
start the CPUs again
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c: Add -no-shutdown flag if
we have JSON support
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add 'fakeReboot' flag to
qemuDomainObjPrivate struct
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fake reboot using the
system_powerdown command if JSON support is available
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Add
binding for system_reset command
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Reset the guest & start CPUs if
fakeReboot is set
For virtio disks and interfaces, qemu allows users to enable or disable
ioeventfd feature. This means, qemu can execute domain code, while
another thread waits for I/O event. Basically, in some cases it is win,
in some loss. This feature is available via 'ioeventfd' attribute in disk
and interface <driver> element. It accepts 'on' and 'off'. Leaving this
attribute out defaults to hypervisor decision.
The following patch addresses the problem that when a PASSTHROUGH
mode DIRECT NIC connection is made the MAC address of the NIC is
not automatically set and reset to the configured VM MAC and
back again.
The attached patch fixes this problem by setting and resetting the MAC
while remembering the previous setting while the VM is running.
This also works if libvirtd is restarted while the VM is running.
the patch passes make syntax-check
Prefer bootindex=N option for -device over the old way -boot ORDER
possibly accompanied with boot=on option for -drive. This gives us full
control over which device will actually be used for booting guest OS.
Moreover, if qemu doesn't support boot=on, this is the only way to boot
of certain disks in some configurations (such as virtio disks when used
together IDE disks) without transforming domain XML to use per device
boot elements.
From a security pov copy and paste between the guest and the client is not
always desirable. So we need to be able to enable/disable this. The best place
to do this from an administration pov is on the hypervisor, so the qemu cmdline
is getting a spice disable-copy-paste option, see bug 693645. Example qemu
invocation:
qemu -spice port=5932,disable-ticketing,disable-copy-paste
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=693661
If qemu supports multi function PCI device, the format of the PCI address passed
to qemu is "bus=pci.0,multifunction=on,addr=slot.function".
If qemu does not support multi function PCI device, the format of the PCI address
passed to qemu is "bus=pci.0,addr=slot".
Hot pluging/unpluging multi PCI device is not supported now. So the function
of hotplugged PCI device must be 0. When we hot unplug it, we should set release
all functions in the slot.
We save all used PCI address in the hash table. The key is generated by domain,
bus and slot now. We will support multi function PCI device, so the key should
be generated by domain, bus, slot and function.
NB: the enum that uses the string vnet-host (now changed to vhost-net)
is used in XML, but fortunately that hasn't been in an official
release yet, so it can still be fixed.
Since -vnc uses ':' to separate the address from the port, raw
IPv6 addresses need to be escaped like [addr]:port
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c: Escape raw IPv6 addresses with []
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-vnc.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-vnc.xml: Tweak
to test Ipv6 escaping
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Allow Ipv6 addresses, or hostnames
in <graphics> listen attributes
This adds a streaming-video=filter|all|off attribute. It is used to change
the behavior of video stream detection in spice, the default is filter (the
default for libvirt is not to specify it - the actual default is defined in
libspice-server.so).
Usage:
<graphics type='spice' autoport='yes'>
<streaming mode='off'/>
</graphics>
Tested with the above and with tests/qemuxml2argvtest.

This matches the public API and helps to get rid of some special

Rename driver API functions and XDR protocol structs.

We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.

Even with -Wuninitialized (which is part of autobuild.sh
--enable-compile-warnings=error), gcc does NOT catch this
use of an uninitialized variable:
{
if (cond)
goto error;
int a = 1;
error:
printf("%d", a);
}
which prints 0 (supposing the stack started life wiped) if
cond was true. Clang will catch it, but we don't use clang
as often. Using gcc -Wjump-misses-init catches it, but also
gives false positives:
{
if (cond)
goto error;
int a = 1;
return a;
error:
return 0;
}
Here, a was never used in the scope of the error block, so
declaring it after goto is technically fine (and clang agrees).
However, given that our HACKING already documents a preference
to C89 decl-before-statement, the false positive warning is
enough of a prod to comply with HACKING.
[Personally, I'd _really_ rather use C99 decl-after-statement
to minimize scope, but until gcc can efficiently and reliably
catch scoping and uninitialized usage bugs, I'll settle with
the compromise of enforcing a coding standard that happens to
reject false positives if it can also detect real bugs.]

Latent bug introduced in commit 2d6a581960 (Aug 2009), but not exposed
until commit 1859939a (Jan 2011). Basically, when virExec creates a
pipe, it always marks libvirt's side as cloexec. If libvirt then
wants to hand that pipe to another child process, things work great if
the fd is dup2()'d onto stdin or stdout (as with stdin: or exec:
migration), but if the pipe is instead used as-is (such as with fd:
migration) then qemu sees EBADF because the fd was closed at exec().
This is a minimal fix for the problem at hand; it is slightly racy,
but no more racy than the rest of libvirt fd handling, including the
case of uncompressed save images. A more invasive fix, but ultimately
safer at avoiding leaking unintended fds, would be to _always and
atomically_ open all fds as cloexec in libvirt (thanks to primitives
like open(O_CLOEXEC), pipe2(), accept4(), ...), then teach virExec to
clear that bit for all fds explicitly marked to be handed to the child
only after forking.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildCommandLine): Clear cloexec
flag.
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c (testCompareXMLToArgvFiles): Tweak test.
The newly added call to qemuAuditNetDevice in qemuPhysIfaceConnect was
assuming that res_ifname (the name of the macvtap device) was always
valid, but this isn't the case. If openMacvtapTap fails, it always
returns NULL, which would result in a segv.
Since the audit log only needs a record of devices that are actually
sent to qemu, and a failure to open the macvtap device means that no
device will be sent to qemu, we can solve this problem by only doing
the audit if openMacvtapTap is successful (in which case res_ifname is
guaranteed valid).
Opening raw network devices with the intent of passing those fds to
qemu is worth an audit point. This makes a multi-part audit: first,
we audit the device(s) that libvirt opens on behalf of the MAC address
of a to-be-created interface (which can independently succeed or
fail), then we audit whether qemu actually started the network device
with the same MAC (so searching backwards for successful audits with
the same MAC will show which fd(s) qemu is actually using). Note that
it is possible for the fd to be successfully opened but no attempt
made to pass the fd to qemu (for example, because intermediate
nwfilter operations failed) - no interface start audit will occur in
that case; so the audit for a successful opened fd does not imply
rights given to qemu unless there is a followup audit about the
attempt to start a new interface.
Likewise, when a network device is hot-unplugged, there is only one
audit message about the MAC being discontinued; again, searching back
to the earlier device open audits will show which fds that qemu quits
using (and yes, I checked via /proc/<qemu-pid>/fd that qemu _does_
close out the fds associated with an interface on hot-unplug). The
code would require much more refactoring to be able to definitively
state which device(s) were discontinued at that point, since we
currently don't record anywhere in the XML whether /dev/vhost-net was
opened for a given interface.

way, as original idea of "-global" is to set a global default for
a driver property, but to specify vram for first qxl device, we
have to use it).
For other qxl devices, as they are represented by "-device", could
specify it directly and seperately for each, and it overrides the
default set by "-global" if specified.
v1 - v2:
* modify "virDomainVideoDefaultRAM" so that it returns 16M as the
default vram_size for qxl device.
* vram_size * 1024 (qemu accepts bytes for vram_size).
* apply default vram_size for qxl device for which vram_size is
not specified.
* modify "graphics-spice" tests (more sensiable vram_size)
* Add an argument of virDomainDefPtr type for qemuBuildVideoDevStr,
to use virDomainVideoDefaultRAM in qemuBuildVideoDevStr).
v2 - v3:
* Modify default video memory size for qxl device from 16M to 24M
* Update codes to be consistent with changes on qemu_capabilities.*

This is done for two reasons:
- we are getting very close to 64 flags which is the maximum we can use
with unsigned long long
- by using LL constants in enum we already violates C99 constraint that
enum values have to fit into int
Now that the virHash handling functions call virReportOOMError by
themselves when needed, users of the virHash API no longer need to
do it by themselves. Since users of the virHash API were not
consistently calling virReportOOMError after memory failures from
the virHash code, this has the added benefit of making OOM
reporting from this code more consistent and reliable.
An upcoming patch has a use for a tap device to be created that
doesn't need to be actually put into the "up" state, and keeping it
"down" keeps the output of ifconfig from being unnecessarily cluttered
(ifconfig won't show down interfaces unless you add "-a").

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=629662
Explanation
qemu's virtio-net-pci driver allows setting the algorithm used for tx
packets to either "bh" or "timer". This is done by adding ",tx=bh" or
",tx=timer" to the "-device virtio-net-pci" commandline option.
'bh' stands for 'bottom half'; when this is set, packet tx is all done
in an iothread in the bottom half of the driver. (In libvirt, this
option is called the more descriptive "iothread".)
'timer' means that tx work is done in qemu, and if there is more tx
data than can be sent at the present time, a timer is set before qemu
moves on to do other things; when the timer fires, another attempt is
made to send more data. (libvirt retains the name "timer" for this
option.)
The resulting difference, according to the qemu developer who added
the option is:
bh makes tx more asynchronous and reduces latency, but potentially
causes more processor bandwidth contention since the cpu doing the
tx isn't necessarily the cpu where the guest generated the
packets.
Solution
This patch provides a libvirt domain xml knob to change the option on
the qemu commandline, by adding a new attribute "txmode" to the
<driver> element that can be placed inside any <interface> element in
a domain definition. It's use would be something like this:
<interface ...>
...
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver txmode='iothread'/>
...
</interface>
I chose to put this setting as an attribute to <driver> rather than as
a sub-element to <tune> because it is specific to the virtio-net
driver, not something that is generally usable by all network drivers.
(note that this is the same placement as the "driver name=..."
attribute used to choose kernel vs. userland backend for the
virtio-net driver.)
Actually adding the tx=xxx option to the qemu commandline is only done
if the version of qemu being used advertises it in the output of
qemu -device virtio-net-pci,?
If a particular txmode is requested in the XML, and the option isn't
listed in that help output, an UNSUPPORTED_CONFIG error is logged, and
the domain fails to start.
When the <driver> element (and its "name" attribute) was added to the
domain XML's interface element, a "backend" enum was simply added to
the toplevel of the virDomainNetDef struct.
Ignoring the naming inconsistency ("name" vs. "backend"), this is fine
when there's only a single item contained in the driver element of the
XML, but doesn't scale well as we add more attributes that apply to
the backend of the virtio-net driver, or add attributes applicable to
other drivers.
This patch changes virDomainNetDef in two ways:
1) Rename the item in the struct from "backend" to "name", so that
it's the same in the XML and in the struct, hopefully avoiding
confusion for someone unfamiliar with the function of the
attribute.
2) Create a "driver" union within virDomainNetDef, and a "virtio"
struct in that struct, which contains the "name" enum value.
3) Move around the virDomainNetParse and virDomainNetFormat functions
to allow for simple plugin of new attributes without disturbing
existing code. (you'll note that this results in a seemingly
redundant if() in the format function, but that will no longer be
the case as soon as a 2nd attribute is added).
In the future, new attributes for the virtio driver backend can be
added to the "virtio" struct, and any other network device backend that
needs an attribute will have its own struct added to the "driver"
union.
Move the qemudStartVMDaemon and qemudShutdownVMDaemon
methods into a separate file, renaming them to
qemuProcessStart, qemuProcessStop. All helper methods
called by these are also moved & renamed to match

The code expected that host CPU architecture matches the architecture on
which libvirt runs. This is normally true but not in tests, where host
CPU is faked to produce consistent results.
QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS should be set in the function
qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo()
The flag QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS is used in the function
qemuBuildDeviceAddressStr(). All callers get qemuCmdFlags
by the function qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo() except that
testCompareXMLToArgvFiles() in qemuxml2argvtest.c.
So we should set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS in the function
qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo() instead of qemuBuildCommandLine()
because the function qemuBuildCommandLine() does not be called
when we attach a pci device.
tests: set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS in testCompareXMLToArgvFiles()
set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS before calling qemuBuildCommandLine()
as the flags is not set by qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo().

Use it in all places where a memory or storage request size is converted
to a larger granularity. This avoids requesting too small memory or storage
sizes that could result from the truncation done by a simple division.
This extends the round up fix in 6002e0406c
to the whole codebase.
Instead of reporting errors for odd values in the VMX code round them up.
Update the QEMU Argv tests accordingly as the original memory size 219200
isn't a even multiple of 1024 and is rounded up to 215 megabyte now. Change
it to 219100 and 219136. Use two different values intentionally to make
sure that rounding up works.
Update virsh.pod accordingly, as rounding down and rejecting are replaced
by rounding up.
qemu allows the user to choose what io storage api should be used,
either the default (threads) or native (linux aio) which in the latter
case can result in better performance.

In QEMU, the card itself is a PCI device, but it requires a codec
(either -device hda-output or -device hda-duplex) to actually output
sound. Specifying <sound model='ich6'/> gives us -device intel-hda
-device hda-duplex I think it's important that a simple <sound model='ich6'/>
sets up a useful codec, to have consistent behavior with all other sound cards.
This is basically Dan's proposal of
<sound model='ich6'>
<codec type='output' slot='0'/>
<codec type='duplex' slot='3'/>
</sound>
without the codec bits implemented.
The important thing is to keep a consistent API here, we don't want some
<sound> devs require tweaking codecs but not others. Steps I see to
accomplishing this:
- every <sound> device has a <codec type='default'/> (unless codecs are
manually specified)
- <codec type='none'/> is required to specify 'no codecs'
- new audio settings like mic=on|off could then be exposed in
<sound> or <codec> in a consistent manner for all sound models
v2:
Use model='ich6'
v3:
Use feature detection, from eblake
Set codec id, bus, and cad values
v4:

If vnc_auto_unix_socket is enabled, any VNC devices without a hardcoded
listen or socket value will be setup to serve over a unix socket in
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/$vmname.vnc.
We store the generated socket path in the transient VM definition at
CLI build time.
QEMU supports serving VNC over a unix domain socket rather than traditional
TCP host/port. This is specified with:
<graphics type='vnc' socket='/foo/bar/baz'/>
This provides better security access control than VNC listening on
127.0.0.1, but will cause issues with tools that rely on the lax security
(virt-manager in fedora runs as regular user by default, and wouldn't be
able to access a socket owned by 'qemu' or 'root').
Also not currently supported by any clients, though I have patches for
virt-manager, and virt-viewer should be simple to update.

When using -incoming stdio or -incoming exec:, qemu keeps the
stdin fd open long after the migration is complete. Not to
mention that exec:cat is horribly inefficient, by doubling the

In short, under heavy load, it's possible for qemu's networking to
lock up due to the tap device's default 1MB sndbuf being
inadequate. adding "sndbuf=0" to the qemu commandline -netdevice
option will alleviate this problem (sndbuf=0 actually sets it to
0xffffffff).
Because we must be able to explicitly specify "0" as a value, the
standard practice of "0 means not specified" won't work here. Instead,
virDomainNetDef also has a sndbuf_specified, which defaults to 0, but
is set to 1 if some value was given.
The sndbuf value is put inside a <tune> element of each <interface> in
the domain. The intent is that further tunable settings will also be
placed inside this element.
<interface type='network'>
...
<tune>
<sndbuf>0</sndbuf>
...
</tune>
</interface>

The existing libvirt support for the vhost-net backend to the virtio
network driver happens automatically - if the vhost-net device is
available, it is always enabled, otherwise the standard userland
virtio backend is used.
This patch makes it possible to force whether or not vhost-net is used
with a bit of XML. Adding a <driver> element to the interface XML, eg:
<interface type="network">
<model type="virtio"/>
<driver name="vhost"/>
will force use of vhost-net (if it's not available, the domain will
fail to start). if driver name="qemu", vhost-net will not be used even
if it is available.
If there is no <driver name='xxx'/> in the config, libvirt will revert
to the pre-existing automatic behavior - use vhost-net if it's
available, and userland backend if vhost-net isn't available.
If the emulator doesn't support SDL graphic, we should reject
the use of SDL graphic xml with error messages, but not ignore
it silently, and pretend things are fine.
"-sdl" flag was exposed explicitly by qemu since 0.10.0, more detail:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-January/msg00442.html
And we already have capability flag "QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_0_10", which
could be used to prevent the patch affecting the older versions

Skip IB700 when assigning PCI slots.
Note: the I6300ESB watchdog _is_ a PCI device.
To test this: I applied this patch to libvirt-0.8.3-2.fc14 (rebasing
it slightly: qemu_command.c didn't exist in that version) and
installed this on my machine, then tested that I could successfully
add an ib700 watchdog device to a guest, start the guest, and the
ib700 was available to the guest. I also added an i6300esb (PCI)
watchdog to another guest, and verified that libvirt assigned a PCI
device to it, that the guest could be started, and that i6300esb was
present in the guest.
Note that if you previously had a domain with a ib700 watchdog, it
would have had an <address type='pci' .../> clause added to it in the
libvirt configuration. This patch does not attempt to remove this.
You cannot start such a domain -- qemu gives an error if you try.
With this patch you are able to remove the bogus address element
without libvirt adding it back.
