The linkstate setting of an <interface> is only meant to change the
online status reported to the guest system by the emulated network
device driver in qemu, but when support for auto-creating tap devices
for <interface type='ethernet'> was added in commit 9717d6, a chunk of
code was also added to qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState() that sets the
online status of the tap device (i.e. the *host* side of the
interface) for type='ethernet'. This was never done for tap devices
used in type='bridge' or type='network' interfaces, nor was it done in
the past for tap devices created by external scripts for
type='ethernet', so we shouldn't be doing it now.
This patch removes the bit of code in qemuDomainChangeNetLinkState()
that modifies online status of the tap device.
The call to virNetDevIPInfoAddToDev() that sets up tap device IP
addresses and routes was somehow incorrectly placed in
qemuInterfaceStopDevice() instead of qemuInterfaceStartDevice() in
commit fe8567f6. This fixes that error by moving the call to
virNetDevIPInfoAddToDev() to qemuInterfaceStartDevice().

This patch removes the old vcpu unplug code completely and replaces it
with the new code using device_del. The old hotplug code basically never
worked with any recent qemu and thus is useless.
As the new code is using device_del all the implications of using it
are present. Contrary to the device deletion code, the vcpu deletion
code fails if the unplug request is not executed in time.
To allow unplugging the vcpus, hotplugging of vcpus on platforms which
require to plug multiple logical vcpus at once or plugging them in an
arbitrary order it's necessary to use the new device_add interface for
vcpu hotplug.
This patch adds support for the device_add interface using the old
setvcpus API by implementing an algorithm to select the appropriate
entities to plug in.
Add support for using the new approach to hotplug vcpus using device_add
during startup of qemu to allow sparse vcpu topologies.
There are a few limitations imposed by qemu on the supported
configuration:
- vcpu0 needs to be always present and not hotpluggable
- non-hotpluggable cpus need to be ordered at the beginning
- order of the vcpus needs to be unique for every single hotpluggable
entity
Qemu also doesn't really allow to query the information necessary to
start a VM with the vcpus directly on the commandline. Fortunately they
can be hotplugged during startup.
The new hotplug code uses the following approach:
- non-hotpluggable vcpus are counted and put to the -smp option
- qemu is started
- qemu is queried for the necessary information
- the configuration is checked
- the hotpluggable vcpus are hotplugged
- vcpus are started
This patch adds a lot of checking code and enables the support to
specify the individual vcpu element with qemu.
The vcpu order information is extracted only for hotpluggable entities,
while vcpu definitions belonging to the same hotpluggable entity need
to all share the order information.
We also can't overwrite it right away in the vcpu info detection code as
the order is necessary to add the hotpluggable vcpus enabled on boot in
the correct order.
The helper will store the order information in places where we are
certain that it's necessary.
Introduce a new migration cookie flag that will be used for any
configurations that are not compatible with libvirt that would not
support the specific vcpu hotplug approach. This will make sure that old
libvirt does not fail to reproduce the configuration correctly.
Individual vCPU hotplug requires us to track the state of any vCPU. To
allow this add the following XML:
<domain>
...
<vcpu current='2'>3</vcpu>
<vcpus>
<vcpu id='0' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='no' order='1'/>
<vcpu id='1' enabled='yes' hotpluggable='yes' order='2'/>
<vcpu id='1' enabled='no' hotpluggable='yes'/>
</vcpus>
...
The 'enabled' attribute allows to control the state of the vcpu.
'hotpluggable' controls whether given vcpu can be hotplugged and 'order'
allows to specify the order to add the vcpus.
Similarly to devices the guest may allow unplug of the VCPU if libvirt
is down. To avoid problems, refresh the vcpu state on reconnect. Don't
mess with the vcpu state otherwise.
Now that the monitor code gathers all the data we can extract it to
relevant places either in the definition or the private data of a vcpu.
As only thread id is broken for TCG guests we may extract the rest of
the data and just skip assigning of the thread id. In case where qemu
would allow cpu hotplug in TCG mode this will make it work eventually.
For hotplug purposes it's necessary to retrieve data using
query-hotpluggable-cpus while the old query-cpus API report thread IDs
and order of hotplug.
This patch adds code that merges the data using a rather non-trivial
algorithm and fills the data to the qemuMonitorCPUInfo structure for
adding to appropriate place in the domain definition.
Add support for retrieving information regarding hotpluggable cpu units
supported by qemu. Data returned by the command carries information
needed to figure out the granularity of hotplug, the necessary cpu type
name and the topology information.
Note that qemu doesn't specify any particular order of the entries thus
it's necessary sort them by socket_id, core_id and thread_id to the
order libvirt expects.
To allow matching up the data returned by query-cpus to entries in the
query-hotpluggable-cpus reply for CPU hotplug it's necessary to extract
the QOM path as it's the only link between the two.
QEMU reports whether 'query-hotpluggable-cpus' is supported for a given
machine type. Extract and cache the information using the capability
cache.
When copying the capabilities for a new start of qemu, mask out the
presence of QEMU_CAPS_QUERY_HOTPLUGGABLE_CPUS if the machine type
doesn't support hotpluggable cpus.

vl: Add another sanity check to smp_parse() function
v2.4.0-952-ga32ef3b
configuration where the maximum CPU count doesn't match the topology is
rejected. Prior to that only configurations where the topology would
contain more cpus than the maximum count would be rejected.
Use QEMU_CAPS_QUERY_HOTPLUGGABLE_CPUS as a relevant recent enough
witness to avoid breaking old configs.
Prepare to extract more data by returning an array of structs rather than
just an array of thread ids. Additionally report fatal errors separately
from qemu not being able to produce data.

virtio-rng-pci
virtio-gpu-pci

Assuming that if QEMU knows other virtio devices where this property
is applicable, it will have at least one of these devices.

virtio-pci: add flags to enable/disable legacy/modern
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182074
Since libvirt still uses a legacy qemu arg format to add a disk, the
manner in which the 'password-secret' argument is passed to qemu needs
to change to prepend a 'file.' If in the future, usage of the more
modern disk format, then the prepended 'file.' can be removed.
Fix based on Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.com> posting and subsequent
upstream list followups, see:

for details. Introduced by commit id 'a1344f70'.
The code that setups listen types may change a listen type from address to
socket based on configuration from qemu.conf. This needs to be done before we
reserve/allocate ports that won't be used.

The first argument should be const char ** instead of
char **, because this is a search function and as such it
doesn't, and shouldn't, alter the haystack in any way.
This change means we no longer have to cast arrays of
immutable strings to arrays of mutable strings; we still
have to do the opposite, though, but that's reasonable.
All other modes of qemuDomainSetVcpusFlags have helpers so finish the
work by splitting the regular code into a new function.
This patch also touches up the coding (spacing) style.
Mention whether it was the live or persistent definition which caused an
error reported and explicitly error out in case when attempting to set
maximum vcpu count for a live domain.
Setting heads to 0 in case that *max_outputs* is not supported while building
command line doesn't have any real effect. It only removes *heads* attribute
from live XML, but after restarting libvirt the default value is restored.

Since we now pick the default USB controller model when parsing
the guest XML, we can get rid of some duplicated code so that
the default model selection happens in one place only.
Add some comments as well.
Now that the default USB controller model is explicit rather
than implicit for i440fx machines, we have to tweak the
conditions for dropping it in order to keep migration towards
libvirt <= 0.9.4 working.
When the user doesn't specify any model for a USB controller,
we use an architecture-dependent default, but we don't reflect
it in the guest XML.
Pick the default USB controller model when parsing the guest
XML instead of when creating the QEMU command line, so that
our choice is saved back to disk.
Since a9331394 (first release v2.1.0), specifying a manual
security_driver setting in qemu.conf causes the daemon to fail to
start, erroring with 'Duplicate security driver X'.
The duplicate checking was incorrectly comparing every entry
against itself, guaranteeing a false positive.

In qemu, enabling this feature boils down to adding the following
onto the command line:
-global driver=cfi.pflash01,property=secure,value=on
However, there are some constraints resulting from the
implementation. For instance, System Management Mode (SMM) is
required to be enabled, the machine type must be q35-2.4 or
later, and the guest should be x86_64. While technically it is
possible to have 32 bit guests with secure boot, some non-trivial
CPU flags tuning is required (for instance lm and nx flags must
be prohibited). Given complexity of our CPU driver, this is not
trivial. Therefore I've chosen to forbid 32 bit guests for now.
If there's ever need, we can refine the check later.

Since its release of 2.4.0 qemu is able to enable System
Management Module in the firmware, or disable it. We should
expose this capability in the XML. Unfortunately, there's no good
way to determine whether the binary we are talking to supports
it. I mean, if qemu's run with real machine type, the smm
attribute can be seen in 'qom-list /machine' output. But it's not
there when qemu's run with -M none. Therefore we're stuck with
version based check.

We use 'goto cleanup' for a reason. If a function can exit at
many places but doesn't follow the pattern, it has to copy the

Call the vcpu thread info validation separately to decrease complexity
of returned values by qemuDomainRefreshVcpuInfo.
This function now returns 0 on success and -1 on error. Certain
failures of qemu to report data are still considered as success. Any
error reported now is fatal.
