Currently users who want to use virDomainQemuMonitorCommand() API or
it's virsh equivalent has to use the same protocol as libvirt uses for
communication to qemu. Since the protocol is QMP with current qemu and
HMP much more usable for humans, one ends up typing something like the
following:
virsh qemu-monitor-command DOM \
'{"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"info kvm"}}'
which is not a very convenient way of debugging qemu.
This patch introduces --hmp option to qemu-monitor-command, which says
that the provided command is in HMP. If libvirt uses QMP to talk with
qemu, the command will automatically be converted into QMP. So the
example above is simplified to just
virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp DOM "info kvm"
Also the result is converted from
{"return":"kvm support: enabled\r\n"}
to just plain HMP:
kvm support: enabled
If libvirt talks to qemu in HMP, --hmp flag is obviously a noop.

Fix glitch in commit cddd2a06 (thankfully post-0.8.6, so no
released version has the glitch).
Document and try to workaround glitch in commit 46e9b0f (in 0.8.0),
which invalidated 6 virErrorNumber values dating as far back as 0.7.1.
My audit did not find any other glitches until pre-0.1.0 days. I'm
not sure how to add a syntax-check off the top of my head, but
hopefully the explicit numbering will make people think twice about
renumbering in the future.
* include/libvirt/virterror.h (virErrorDomain): Avoid inserting
new values in the middle, and add explicit numbering to help avoid
this in the future.
(virErrorNumber): Add explicit numbering, and document the snafu.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteIO): Compensate for the snafu.
The nodeinfo structure includes
nodes : the number of NUMA cell, 1 for uniform mem access
sockets : number of CPU socket per node
cores : number of core per socket
threads : number of threads per core
which does not work well for NUMA topologies where each node does not
consist of integral number of CPU sockets.
We also have VIR_NODEINFO_MAXCPUS macro in public libvirt.h which
computes maximum number of CPUs as (nodes * sockets * cores * threads).
As a result, we can't just change sockets to report total number of
sockets instead of sockets per node. This would probably be the easiest
since I doubt anyone is using the field directly. But because of the
macro, some apps might be using sockets indirectly.
This patch leaves sockets to be the number of CPU sockets per node (and
fixes qemu driver to comply with this) on machines where sockets can be
divided by nodes. If we can't divide sockets by nodes, we behave as if
there was just one NUMA node containing all sockets. Apps interested in
NUMA should consult capabilities XML, which is what they probably do
anyway.
This way, the only case in which apps that care about NUMA may break is
on machines with funky NUMA topology. And there is a chance libvirt
wasn't able to start any guests on those machines anyway (although it
depends on the topology, total number of CPUs and kernel version).
Nothing changes at all for apps that don't care about NUMA.

To avoid the need for duplicating implementations of virStream
drivers, provide a generic implementation that can handle any
FD based stream. This code is copied from the existing impl
in the QEMU driver, with the locking moved into the stream
impl, and addition of a read callback
The FD stream code will refuse to operate on regular files or
block devices, since those can't report EAGAIN properly when
they would block on I/O

To enable virsh console (or equivalent) to be used remotely
it is necessary to provide remote access to the /dev/pts/XXX

stream capability that can be used for this purpose. This
patch thus introduces a virDomainOpenConsole API that uses
the stream APIs.

Add the library entry point for the new virDomainQemuMonitorCommand()

it gets its own header file, library file, and will eventually
get its own over-the-wire protocol later in the series.

- Go back to using the virDriver table for qemuDomainMonitorCommand, due to
linking issues
- Added versioning information to the libvirt-qemu.so

Support for live migration between hosts that do not share storage was
added to qemu-kvm release 0.12.1.
It supports two flags:
-b migration without shared storage with full disk copy
-i migration without shared storage with incremental copy (same base image
shared between source and destination).
I tested the live migration without shared storage (both flags) for native
and p2p with and without tunnelling. I also verified that the fix doesn't
affect normal migration with shared storage.
This introduces a new event type
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_IO_ERROR_REASON
This event is the same as the previous VIR_DOMAIN_ID_IO_ERROR
event, but also includes a string describing the cause of
the event.
Thus there is a new callback definition for this event type
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventIOErrorReasonCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
const char *srcPath,
const char *devAlias,
int action,
const char *reason,
void *opaque);
This is currently wired up to the QEMU block IO error events

IO error events
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define new IO error event ID

Some applications need to be able to query a guest's disk info,
even for paths not managed by the storage pool APIs. This adds
a very simple API to get this information, modelled on the
virStorageVolGetInfo API, but with an extra field 'physical'.
Normally 'physical' and 'allocation' will be identical, but
in the case of a qcow2-like file stored inside a block device
'physical' will give the block device size, while 'allocation'
will give the qcow2 image size
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define virDomainGetBlockInfo
virDomainManagedSave() is to be run on a running domain. Once the call
complete, as in virDomainSave() the domain is stopped upon completion,
but there is no restore counterpart as any order to start the domain
from the API would load the state from the managed file, similary if
the domain is autostarted when libvirtd starts.
Once a domain has restarted his managed save image is destroyed,
basically managed save image can only exist for a stopped domain,
for a running domain that would be by definition outdated data.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in src/libvirt.c src/libvirt_public.syms:
adds the new entry points virDomainManagedSave(),
virDomainHasManagedSaveImage() and virDomainManagedSaveRemove()

When a watchdog/IO error occurs, one of the possible actions that
QEMU might take is to pause the guest. In this scenario libvirt
needs to update its internal state for the VM, and emit a
lifecycle event:
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED
with a detail being one of:
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED_IOERROR
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED_WATCHDOG
To future proof against possible QEMU support for multiple monitor
consoles, this patch also hooks into the 'STOPPED' event in QEMU
and emits a generic VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED_PAUSED event
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Add VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_SUSPENDED_IOERROR
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Update VM state to paused when IO error
or watchdog events occurrs
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Fix typo in disk IO event name
This flag is used in migration prepare step to send updated XML
definition of a guest.
Also ``virsh dumpxml --update-cpu [--inactive] guest'' command can be
used to see the updated CPU requirements.

This introduces a new event type
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_GRAPHICS
The same event can be emitted in 3 scenarios
typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_CONNECT = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_INITIALIZE,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_DISCONNECT,
} virDomainEventGraphicsPhase;
Connect/disconnect are triggered at socket accept/close.
The initialize phase is immediately after the protocol
setup and authentication has completed. ie when the
client is authorized and about to start interacting with
the graphical desktop
This event comes with *a lot* of potential information
- IP address, port & address family of client
- IP address, port & address family of server
- Authentication scheme (arbitrary string)
- Authenticated subject identity. A subject may have
multiple identities with some authentication schemes.
For example, vencrypt+sasl results in a x509dname
and saslUsername identities.
This results in a very complicated callback :-(
typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_ADDRESS_IPV4,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_ADDRESS_IPV6,
} virDomainEventGraphicsAddressType;
struct _virDomainEventGraphicsAddress {
int family;
const char *node;
const char *service;
};
typedef struct _virDomainEventGraphicsAddress virDomainEventGraphicsAddress;
typedef virDomainEventGraphicsAddress *virDomainEventGraphicsAddressPtr;
struct _virDomainEventGraphicsSubject {
int nidentity;
struct {
const char *type;
const char *name;
} *identities;
};
typedef struct _virDomainEventGraphicsSubject virDomainEventGraphicsSubject;
typedef virDomainEventGraphicsSubject *virDomainEventGraphicsSubjectPtr;
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventGraphicsCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int phase,
virDomainEventGraphicsAddressPtr local,
virDomainEventGraphicsAddressPtr remote,
const char *authScheme,
virDomainEventGraphicsSubjectPtr subject,
void *opaque);
The wire protocol is similarly complex
struct remote_domain_event_graphics_address {
int family;
remote_nonnull_string node;
remote_nonnull_string service;
};
const REMOTE_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_IDENTITY_MAX = 20;
struct remote_domain_event_graphics_identity {
remote_nonnull_string type;
remote_nonnull_string name;
};
struct remote_domain_event_graphics_msg {
remote_nonnull_domain dom;
int phase;
remote_domain_event_graphics_address local;
remote_domain_event_graphics_address remote;
remote_nonnull_string authScheme;
remote_domain_event_graphics_identity subject<REMOTE_DOMAIN_EVENT_GRAPHICS_IDENTITY_MAX>;
};
This is currently implemented in QEMU for the VNC graphics
protocol, but designed to be usable with SPICE graphics in
the future too.

typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_IO_ERROR_NONE = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_IO_ERROR_PAUSE,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_IO_ERROR_REPORT,
} virDomainEventIOErrorAction;
In addition it has the source path of the disk that had the
error and its unique device alias. It does not include the
target device name (/dev/sda), since this would preclude
triggering IO errors from other file backed devices (eg
serial ports connected to a file)
Thus there is a new callback definition for this event type
typedef void (*virConnectDomainEventIOErrorCallback)(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
const char *srcPath,

The reboot event is not a normal lifecycle event, since the
virtual machine on the host does not change state. Rather the
guest OS is resetting the virtual CPUs. ie, the QEMU process
does not restart. Thus, this does not belong in the current
lifecycle events callback.
This introduces a new event type
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_REBOOT
It takes no parameters, besides the virDomainPtr, so it can
use the generic callback signature.

The current API for domain events has a number of problems
- Only allows for domain lifecycle change events
- Does not allow the same callback to be registered multiple times
- Does not allow filtering of events to a specific domain
This introduces a new more general purpose domain events API
typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE = 0, /* virConnectDomainEventCallback */
...more events later..
}
int virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom, /* Optional, to filter */
int eventID,
virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback cb,
void *opaque,
virFreeCallback freecb);
int virConnectDomainEventDeregisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
int callbackID);
Since different event types can received different data in the callback,
the API is defined with a generic callback. Specific events will each
have a custom signature for their callback. Thus when registering an
event it is neccessary to cast the callback to the generic signature
eg
int myDomainEventCallback(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int event,
int detail,
void *opaque)
{
...
}
virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(conn, NULL,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK(myDomainEventCallback)
NULL, NULL);
The VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK() macro simply does a "bad" cast
to the generic signature
