Like the Description, these are intended to be displayed to the
user, so it makes sense to have them towards the top of the file
before all the information that systemd will parse to calculate
dependencies.

Hypervisors are referred to by their user-facing name rather
than the name of their libvirt driver, the monolithic daemon is
explicitly referred to as legacy, and a consistent format is
used throughout.

We have already declared the mirror relationship, so this one
is now redundant.
Moreover, this version was incomplete: it only ever worked for
the monolithic daemon, but the modular daemons for QEMU and Xen
also want the sockets to be active.

Requires/Wants only tells systemd that the corresponding unit
should be started when the current one is, but that could very
well happen in parallel. For virtlogd/virtlockd, we want the
socket to be already active when the hypervisor driver is
started.

Only the main socket is actually necessary for the service to be
usable.
In the past, we've had security issues that could be exploited via
access to the read-only socket, so a security-minded administrator
might consider disabling all optional sockets. This change makes
such a setup possible.
Note that the services will still try to activate all their
sockets on startup, even if they have been disabled. To make sure
that the optional sockets are never started, they will have to be
masked.

This is the strongest relationship that can be declared between
two units, and causes the service to be terminated immediately
if its main socket disappears. This is the behavior we want.
Note that we don't do the same for the read-only/admin sockets,
because those are not as critical for the core functionality of
services as the main socket it.

This annotation being missing resulted in virtlogd and virtlockd
being marked as "indirect" services, i.e. services that cannot
be started directly but have to be socket activated instead.
While this is our preferred configuration, we shouldn't prevent
the admin to start them at boot if they want to.

src: set max open file limit to match systemd >= 240 defaults
The bug referenced in that commit had suggested to set
LimitNOFile=512000:1024
on the basis that matches current systemd default behaviour and is
compatible with old systemd. That was good except
* The setting is LimitNOFILE and these are case sensitive
* The hard and soft limits were inverted - soft must come
first and so it would have been ignored even if the
setting name was correct.
* The default hard limit is 524288 not 512000

Since systemd 240, all services get an open file hard limit of
500k, and a soft limit of 1024. This limit means apps are safe
to use select() by default which is limited to 1024 FDs. Apps
which don't use select() are expected to simply set their soft
limit to match the hard limit during startup.
With our current unit file settings we've been effectively
reducing the max open files we have on most modern systems.

sysconfig files are owned by the admin of the host. They have the
liberty to put anything they want into these files. This makes it
difficult to provide different built-in defaults.
Remove the sysconfig file and place the current desired default into
the service file.
Local customizations can now go either into /etc/sysconfig/name
or /etc/systemd/system/name.service.d/my-knobs.conf
Attempt to handle upgrades in libvirt.spec.
Dirty files which are marked as %config will be renamed to file.rpmsave.
To restore them automatically, move stale .rpmsave files away, and
catch any new rpmsave files in %posttrans.

The assumption so far was an average of 4 disks per guest.
But some architectures, like s390x, still often use plenty of smaller disks.
To include those in the considerations an assumption of an average of 10
disks is more reasonable.

Linux still defaults to a 1024 open file handle limit. This causes
scalability problems for libvirtd / virtlockd / virtlogd on large
hosts which might want > 1024 guest to be running. In fact if each
guest needs > 1 FD, we can't even get to 500 guests. This is not
good enough when we see machines with 100's of physical cores and
TBs of RAM.
In comparison to other memory requirements of libvirtd & related
daemons, the resource usage associated with open file handles
is essentially line noise. It is thus reasonable to increase the
limits unconditionally for all installs.

After deploying virtlogd by default we identified a number of
mistakes in the systemd unit file. virtlockd's relationship
to libvirtd is the same as virtlogd, so we must apply the

- Pass VIRTLOCKD_ARGS through to virtlockd.
- Use SIGUSR1, not SIGHUP, in ExecReload. At present, virtlockd only
responds to the former.
- Have "systemctl enable virtlockd.service" enable virtlockd.socket,
rather than throw an error.
- Make virtlockd.socket wanted by sockets.target, rather than
multi-user.target. This is consistent with other socket units in
Fedora, and it ensures that the socket is available before libvirtd is
started.
