When LIBXL_HAVE_QED is defined, xlconfigtest fails
9) Xen XL-2-XML Format disk-qed ... command line: config parsing error
in disk specification: no vdev specified in
`target=/var/lib/libvirt/images/XenGuest2,format=qed,backendtype=qdisk,vdev=hda,access=rw'
FAILED
As per the xl-disk-configuration(5) man page, target= must come
last in the disk specification when specified by name:
When this parameter is specified by name, ie with the target=
syntax in the configuration file, it consumes the whole rest of the
DISKSPEC including trailing whitespaces. Therefore in that case
it must come last.
Change tests/xlconfigdata/test-disk-qed.cfg to adhere to this
restriction.

When parting libxl config file, USB controllers with type PV are

Add support to xenconfig for conversion of xl.cfg(5) bios config
to/from libvirt domXml <loader> config. SeaBIOS is the default
for HVM guests using upstream QEMU. ROMBIOS is the default when
using the old qemu-dm. This patch allows specifying OVMF as an
alternate firmware.
Example xl.cfg:
bios = "ovmf"
Example domXML:
<os>
...
<loader readonly='yes' type='pflash'>/usr/lib/xen/boot/ovmf.bin</loader>
</os>
Note that currently Xen does not support a separate nvram for
non-volatile variables.

Some of the test configuration files in tests/xlconfigdata
use the old qemu-dm as the emulator. Many of the configuration
features tested (spice, rbd, multi-usb) are not even usable with
the old qemu. Change these files to use the new qemu-xen (also
known as qemu upstream) emulator.
Note: This change fixes xlconfigtest failures when the old
qemu is actually installed on the system. During device post
parse, the libxl driver attempts to invoke the emulator to
determine if it is the old or new qemu so it can properly set
video RAM defaults. With the old qemu installed, the default
video RAM was set differently than the expected value.
Changing all the test data files to use qemu-xen ensures
predictable results wrt default video RAM size.

The target= setting in xl disk configuration can be used to encode
meta info that is meaningful to a backend. Leverage this fact to
support qdisk network disk types such as rbd. E.g. <disk> config
such as
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='rbd' name='pool/image'>
<host name='mon1.example.org' port='6321'/>
<host name='mon2.example.org' port='6322'/>
<host name='mon3.example.org' port='6322'/>
</source>
<target dev='hdb' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='1'/>
</disk>
can be converted to the following xl config (and vice versa)
disk = [ "format=raw,vdev=hdb,access=rw,backendtype=qdisk,
target=rbd:pool/image:auth_supported=none:mon_host=mon1.example.org\\:6321\\;mon2.example.org\\:6322\\;mon3.example.org\\:6322"
]
Note that in xl disk config, a literal backslash in target= must
be escaped with a backslash. Conversion of <auth> config is not
handled in this patch, but can be done in a follow-up patch.
Also add a test for the conversions.

The most formal form of xl disk configuration uses key=value
syntax to define each configuration item, e.g.
format=raw, vdev=xvda, access=rw, backendtype=phy, target=disksrc
Change the xl disk formatter to produce this syntax, which allows
target= to contain meta info needed to setup a network-based
disksrc (e.g. rbd, nbd, iscsi). For details on xl disk config
format, see $xen-src/docs/misc/xl-disk-configuration.txt
Update the disk config in the tests to use the formal syntax.
But add tests to ensure disks specified with the positional
parameter syntax are correctly converted to <disk> XML.

Seems like the natural fit, since we are already adding other XML bits
in the PostParse routine.
Previously AddImplicitControllers was only called at the end of XML
parsing, meaning code that builds a DomainDef by hand had to manually
call it. Now those PostParse callers get it for free.
There's some test churn here; xen xm and sexpr test suite bits weren't
calling this before, but now they are, so you'll see new IDE controllers.
I don't think this will cause problems in practice, since the code already
needs to handle these implicit controllers like in the case when a user
defines their own XML.
The current code was a little bit odd. At first we've removed all
possible implicit input devices from domain definition to add them later
back if there was any graphics device defined while parsing XML
description. That's not all, while formating domain definition to XML
description we at first ignore any input devices with bus different to
USB and VIRTIO and few lines later we add implicit input devices to XML.
This seems to me as a lot of code for nothing. This patch may look
to be more complicated than original approach, but this is a preferred
way to modify/add driver specific stuff only in those drivers and not
deal with them in common parsing/formating functions.
The update is to add those implicit input devices into config XML to
follow the real HW configuration visible by guest OS.
There was also inconsistence between our behavior and QEMU's in the way,
that in QEMU there is no way how to disable those implicit input devices
for x86 architecture and they are available always, even without graphics
device. This applies also to XEN hypervisor. VZ driver already does its
part by putting correct implicit devices into live XML.

... and consolidate the cmdline/extra/root parsing to facilitate doing
so.
The logic is the same as xl's parse_cmdline from the current xen.git master
branch (e6f0e099d2c17de47fd86e817b1998db903cab61).
On the formatting side switch to producing cmdline= instead of extra=.
Update a few tests and add serveral more.
- test-cmdline is added to test the exclusive use of cmdline.
- test-fullvirt-direct-kernel-boot.cfg is updated due to the switch
on the formatting side and now tests the exclusive use of cmdline=.
- Tests are added for both paravirt and fullvirt where the .cfg uses
extra= and (paravirt only) root=. These are format (xl->xml) only
since the inverse will generate cmdline= hence is not a round trip
(which was already true if using root=, which used to generate
extra= on the way back).
- Tests are added for both paravirt and fullvirt where the .cfg
declares cmdline= as well as bogus extra= and (paravirt only) root=
entries which should be ignored. Again these are format only tests
since the inverse won't include the bogus lines.
The last two bullets here required splitting the DO_TEST macro into
two halves, as is done in the xmconfigtest.c case.
In order to introduce a use of VIR_WARN for logging I had to add
virerror.h and VIR_LOG_INIT.

Both xm and xl config have long supported specifying vif rate
limiting, e.g.
vif = [ 'mac=00:16:3E:74:3d:76,bridge=br0,rate=10MB/s' ]
Add support for mapping rate to and from <bandwidth> in the xenconfig
parser and formatter. rate is mapped to the required 'average' attribute
of the <outbound> element, e.g.
<interface type='bridge'>
...
<bandwidth>
<outbound average='10240'/>
</bandwidth>
</interface>

xend prior to 4.0 understands vcpus as maxvcpus and vcpu_avail
as a bit map of which cpus are online (default is all).
xend from 4.0 onwards understands maxvcpus as maxvcpus and
vcpus as the number which are online (from 0..N-1). The
upstream commit (68a94cf528e6 "xm: Add maxvcpus support")
claims that if maxvcpus is omitted then the old behaviour
(i.e. obeying vcpu_avail) is retained, but AFAICT it was not,
in this case vcpu==maxcpus==online cpus. This is good for us
because handling anything else would be fiddly.
This patch changes parsing of the virDomainDef maxvcpus and vcpus
entries to use the corresponding 'maxvcpus' and 'vcpus' settings
from xm and xl config. It also drops use of the old Xen 3.x
'vcpu_avail' setting.
The change also removes the maxvcpus limit of MAX_VIRT_VCPUS (since
maxvcpus is simply a count, not a bit mask), which is particularly
crucial on ARM where MAX_VIRT_CPUS == 1 (since all guests are
expected to support vcpu placement, and therefore only the boot
vcpu's info lives in the shared info page).
Existing tests adjusted accordingly, and new tests added for the
'maxvcpus' setting.
Change all tests to use the latest XEND_CONFIG_VERSION
(XEND_CONFIG_VERSION_3_1_0 = 4). Fix tests that do not conform to
the latest version.

Whether SPICE agent is used for client mouse mode. The default is

spicevdagent=BOOLEAN
Enables spice vdagent. The Spice vdagent is an optional component for
enhancing user experience and performing guest-oriented management
tasks. Its features includes: client mouse mode (no need to grab
mouse by client, no mouse lag), automatic adjustment of screen
resolution, copy and paste (text and image) between client and domU.
It also requires vdagent service installed on domU o.s. to work.
The default is 0.
spice_clipboard_sharing=BOOLEAN
Enables Spice clipboard sharing (copy/paste). It requires spicevdagent
enabled. The default is false (0).
So if spiceagent_mouse is enabled (client mouse mode) or
spice_clipboard_sharing is enabled, spicevdagent must be enabled.
Along with this change, s/spicedvagent/spicevdagent, set
spiceagent_mouse correctly, and add a test for these spice
features.

In xl config, hvmloader is implied for hvm guests. It is not
specified with the "kernel" option like xm config. The "kernel"
option, along with "ramdisk" and "extra", is used for HVM direct
kernel boot. Instead of using "kernel" option to populate
virDomainDef object's os.loader->path, use hvmloader discovered
when gathering capabilities.
This change required fixing initialization of capabilities in
the test utils and removing 'kernel = "/usr/lib/xen/boot/hvmloader"'
from the test config files.
xl and xm differ a bit in how <os> configuration is represented.
E.g. xl config supports <os><nvram .../></os> via its "bios"
setting.
Move the xenParseOS and xenFormatOS functions from xen_common.c
and copy to xen_xl.c and xen_xm.c so they can be customized for
xm vs xl config. An unfortunate fallout is reordering of entries
in the test config files.
Add disk and spice config tests for the xen_xl config parser
