68a42bf6f7 conf: support configuring mtu size in a virtual network
Example:

  <network>
     ...
     <mtu size='9000'/>
     ...

If mtu is unset, it's assumed that we want the default for whatever is
the underlying transport (usually this is 1500).

This setting isn't yet wired in, so it will have no effect.

0b6336c2d9 network: allow limiting a <forwarder> element to certain domains
For some unknown reason the original implementation of the <forwarder>
element only took advantage of part of the functionality in the
dnsmasq feature it exposes - it allowed specifying the ip address of a
DNS server which *all* DNS requests would be forwarded to, like this:

   <forwarder addr='192.168.123.25'/>

This is a frontend for dnsmasq's "server" option, which also allows
you to specify a domain that must be matched in order for a request to
be forwarded to a particular server. This patch adds support for
specifying the domain. For example:

   <forwarder domain='example.com' addr='192.168.1.1'/>
   <forwarder domain='www.example.com'/>
   <forwarder domain='travesty.org' addr='10.0.0.1'/>

would forward requests for bob.example.com, ftp.example.com and
joe.corp.example.com all to the DNS server at 192.168.1.1, but would
forward requests for travesty.org and www.travesty.org to
10.0.0.1. And due to the second line, requests for www.example.com,
and odd.www.example.com would be resolved by the libvirt network's own
DNS server (i.e. thery wouldn't be immediately forwarded) even though
they also match 'example.com' - the match is given to the entry with
the longest matching domain. DNS requests not matching any of the
entries would be resolved by the libvirt network's own DNS server.

9065cfaa88 network: allow disabling dnsmasq's DNS server
If you define a libvirt virtual network with one or more IP addresses,
it starts up an instance of dnsmasq. It's always been possible to
avoid dnsmasq's dhcp server (simply don't include a <dhcp> element),
but until now it wasn't possible to avoid having the DNS server
listening; even if the network has no <dns> element, it is started
using default settings.

This patch adds a new attribute to <dns>: enable='yes|no'. For
backward compatibility, it defaults to 'yes', but if you don't want a
DNS server created for the network, you can simply add:

   <dns enable='no'/>

to the network configuration, and next time the network is started
there will be no dns server created (if there is dhcp configuration,
dnsmasq will be started with "port=0" which disables the DNS server;
if there is no dhcp configuration, dnsmasq won't be started at all).

298fa4858c network: Let domains be restricted to local DNS
This adds a new "localOnly" attribute on the domain element of the
network xml.  With this set to "yes", DNS requests under that domain
will only be resolved by libvirt's dnsmasq, never forwarded upstream.

This was how it worked before commit f69a6b987d, and I found that
functionality useful.  For example, I have my host's NetworkManager
dnsmasq configured to forward that domain to libvirt's dnsmasq, so I can
easily resolve guest names from outside.  But if libvirt's dnsmasq
doesn't know a name and forwards it to the host, I'd get an endless
forwarding loop.  Now I can set localOnly="yes" to prevent the loop.

40961978ee conf: new network bridge device attribute macTableManager
The macTableManager attribute of a network's bridge subelement tells
libvirt how the bridge's MAC address table (used to determine the
egress port for packets) is managed. In the default mode, "kernel",
management is left to the kernel, which usually determines entries in
part by turning on promiscuous mode on all ports of the bridge,
flooding packets to all ports when the correct destination is unknown,
and adding/removing entries to the fdb as it sees incoming traffic
from particular MAC addresses.  In "libvirt" mode, libvirt turns off
learning and flooding on all the bridge ports connected to guest
domain interfaces, and adds/removes entries according to the MAC
addresses in the domain interface configurations. A side effect of
turning off learning and unicast_flood on the ports of a bridge is
that (with Linux kernel 3.17 and newer), the kernel can automatically
turn off promiscuous mode on one or more of the bridge's ports
(usually only the one interface that is used to connect the bridge to
the physical network). The result is better performance (because
packets aren't being flooded to all ports, and can be dropped earlier
when they are of no interest) and slightly better security (a guest
can still send out packets with a spoofed source MAC address, but will
only receive traffic intended for the guest interface's configured MAC
address).

The attribute looks like this in the configuration:

  <network>
    <name>test</name>
    <bridge name='br0' macTableManager='libvirt'/>
    ...

This patch only adds the config knob, documentation, and test
cases. The functionality behind this knob is added in later patches.

07450cd429 conf: add trustGuestRxFilters attribute to network and domain interface
This new attribute will control whether or not libvirt will pay
attention to guest notifications about changes to network device mac
addresses and receive filters. The default for this is 'no' (for
security reasons). If it is set to 'yes' *and* the specified device
model and connection support it (currently only macvtap+virtio) then
libvirt will watch for NIC_RX_FILTER_CHANGED events, and when it
receives one, it will issue a query-rx-filter command, retrieve the
result, and modify the host-side macvtap interface's mac address and
unicast/multicast filters accordingly.

The functionality behind this attribute will be in a later patch. This
patch merely adds the attribute to the top-level of a domain's
<interface> as well as to <network> and <portgroup>, and adds
documentation and schema/xml2xml tests. Rather than adding even more
test files, I've just added the net attribute in various applicable
places of existing test files.

4f595ba61c network: permit upstream forwarding of unqualified DNS names
This resolves the issue that prompted the filing of

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=928638

(although the request there is for something much larger and more
general than this patch).

commit f3868259ca disabled the
forwarding to upstream DNS servers of unresolved DNS requests for
names that had no domain, but were just simple host names (no "."
character anywhere in the name). While this behavior is frowned upon
by DNS root servers (that's why it was changed in libvirt), it is
convenient in some cases, and since dnsmasq can be configured to allow
it, it must not be strictly forbidden.

This patch restores the old behavior, but since it is usually
undesirable, restoring it requires specification of a new option in
the network config. Adding the attribute "forwardPlainNames='yes'" to
the <dns> elemnt does the trick - when that attribute is added to a
network config, any simple hostnames that can't be resolved by the
network's dnsmasq instance will be forwarded to the DNS servers listed
in the host's /etc/resolv.conf for an attempt at resolution (just as
any FQDN would be forwarded).

When that attribute *isn't* specified, unresolved simple names will
*not* be forwarded to the upstream DNS server - this is the default
behavior.

ccff335f83 Support for static routes on a virtual bridge
network: static route support for <network>

This patch adds the <route> subelement of <network> to define a static
route.  the address and prefix (or netmask) attribute identify the
destination network, and the gateway attribute specifies the next hop
address (which must be directly reachable from the containing
<network>) which is to receive the packets destined for
"address/(prefix|netmask)".

These attributes are translated into an "ip route add" command that is
executed when the network is started. The command used is of the
following form:

  ip route add <address>/<prefix> via <gateway> \
               dev <virbr-bridge> proto static metric <metric>

Tests are done to validate that the input data are correct.  For
example, for a static route ip definition, the address must be a
network address and not a host address.  Additional checks are added
to ensure that the specified gateway is directly reachable via this
network (i.e. that the gateway IP address is in the same subnet as one
of the IP's defined for the network).

prefix='0' is supported for both family='ipv4' address='0.0.0.0'
netmask='0.0.0.0' or prefix='0', and for family='ipv6' address='::',
prefix=0', although care should be taken to not override a desired
system default route.

Anytime an attempt is made to define a static route which *exactly*
duplicates an existing static route (for example, address=::,
prefix=0, metric=1), the following error message will be sent to
syslog:

    RTNETLINK answers: File exists

This can be overridden by decreasing the metric value for the route
that should be preferred, or increasing the metric for the route that
shouldn't be preferred (and is thus in place only in anticipation that
the preferred route may be removed in the future).  Caution should be
used when manipulating route metrics, especially for a default route.

Note: The use of the command-line interface should be replaced by
direct use of libnl so that error conditions can be handled better.  But,
that is being left as an exercise for another day.

c4f63ef080 conf: formatter/parser/RNG/docs for hostdev <driver name='kvm|vfio'/>
A domain's <interface> or <hostdev>, as well as a <network>'s
<forward>, can now have an optional <driver name='kvm|vfio'/>
element. As of this patch, there is no functionality behind this new
knob - this patch adds support to the domain and network
formatter/parser, and to the RNG and documentation.

When the backend is added, legacy KVM PCI device assignment will
continue to be used when no driver name is specified (or if <driver
name='kvm'/> is specified), but if driver name is 'vfio', the new UEFI
Secure Boot compatible VFIO device assignment will be used.

Note that the parser doesn't automatically insert the current default
value of this setting. This is done on purpose because the two
possibilities are functionally equivalent from the guest's point of
view, and we want to be able to automatically start using vfio as the
default (even for existing domains) at some time in the future. This
is similar to what was done with the "vhost" driver option in
<interface>.

0b73a763f3 use client id for IPv6 DHCP host definition
Originally, only a host name was used to associate a
DHCPv6 request with a specific IPv6 address.  Further testing
demonstrates that this is an unreliable method and, instead,
a client-id or DUID needs to be used.  According to DHCPv6
standards, this id can be a duid-LLT, duid-LL, or duid-UUID
even though dnsmasq will accept almost any text string.

Although validity checking of a specified string makes sure it is
hexadecimal notation with bytes separated by colons, there is no
rigorous check to make sure it meets the standard.

Documentation and schemas have been updated.

2d5cd1d724 network: add support for DHCPv6
The DHCPv6 support includes IPV6 dhcp-range and dhcp-host for one
IPv6 subnetwork on one interface.  This support will only work
if dnsmasq version >= 2.64; otherwise an error occurs if
dhcp-range or dhcp-host is specified for an IPv6 address.

Essentially, this change provides the same DHCP support for IPv6
that has been available for IPv4.

With dnsmasq >= 2.64, support for the RA service is also now provided
by dnsmasq (radvd is no longer used/started). (Although at least one
version of dnsmasq prior to 2.64 "supported" IPv6 Router
Advertisement, there were bugs (fixed in 2.64) that rendered it
unusable.)

Documentation and the network schema has been updated
to reflect the new support.

705e67d40b network: allow guest to guest IPv6 without gateway definition
This patch adds the capability for virtual guests to do IPv6
communication via a virtual network interface with no IPv6 (gateway)
addresses specified.  This capability has always been enabled by
default for IPv4, but disabled for IPv6 for security concerns, and
because it requires the ip6tables command to be operational (which
isn't the case on a system with the ipv6 module completely disabled).

This patch adds a new attribute "ipv6" at the toplevel of a <network>
object.  If ipv6='yes', the extra ip6tables rules required to permite
inter-guest communications are added when the network is started. If
it is 'no', or not present, those rules will not be added; thus the
default behavior doesn't change, so there should be no compatibility
issues with any existing installations.

Note that virtual guests cannot communication with the virtualization
host via this interface, because the following kernel tunable has
been set:

   net.ipv6.conf.<bridge_interface_name>.disable_ipv6 = 1

This assures that the bridge interface will not have an IPv6
link-local (fe80::) address.

To control this behavior so that it is not enabled by default, the parameter
ipv6='yes' on the <network> statement has been added.

Documentation related to this patch has been updated.
The network schema has also been updated.

The following config elements now support a <vlan> subelements:

within a domain: <interface>, and the <actual> subelement of <interface>
within a network: the toplevel, as well as any <portgroup>

Each vlan element must have one or more <tag id='n'/> subelements.  If
there is more than one tag, it is assumed that vlan trunking is being
requested. If trunking is required with only a single tag, the
attribute "trunk='yes'" should be added to the toplevel <vlan>
element.

Some examples:

  <interface type='hostdev'/>
    <vlan>
      <tag id='42'/>
    </vlan>
    <mac address='52:54:00:12:34:56'/>

      </vlan>
    </portgroup>
  </network>

  <interface type='network'/>
    <source network='multi' portgroup='test'/>
    ...
  </interface>

IMPORTANT NOTE: As of this patch there is no backend support for the
vlan element for *any* network device type. When support is added in
later patches, it will only be for those select network types that
support setting up a vlan on the host side, without the guest's
involvement. (For example, it will be possible to configure a vlan for
a guest connected to an openvswitch bridge, but it won't be possible
to do that for one that is connected to a standard Linux host bridge.)

A few times libvirt users manually setting mac addresses have
complained of a networking failure that ends up being due to a multicast
mac address being used for a guest interface. This patch prevents that
by logging an error and failing if a multicast mac address is
encountered in each of the three following cases:

1) domain xml <interface> mac address.
2) network xml bridge mac address.
3) network xml dhcp/host mac address.

There are several other places where a mac address can be input that
aren't controlled in this manner because failure to do so has no
consequences (e.g., if the address will be used to search through
existing interfaces for a match).

The RNG has been updated to add multiMacAddr and uniMacAddr along with
the existing macAddr, and macAddr was switched to uniMacAddr where
appropriate.

also the xPath context is changed to use a simpler query using the

Also, the patch is also fixing the networkxml2argv test to pass both

  <inbound average='1000' peak='2000' burst='5120'/>
  <outbound average='500'/>
</bandwidth>

Leaving any element out means not to shape traffic in that
direction.
The units for average and peak (rate) are in kilobytes per second,
for burst (size) are just in kilobytes.
This element can be inserted into domain's 'interface' and
'network'.

40fd7073be conf: support abstracted interface info in network XML
The network XML is updated in the following ways:

1) The <forward> element can now contain a list of forward interfaces:

     <forward .... >
       <interface dev='eth10'/>
       <interface dev='eth11'/>
       <interface dev='eth12'/>
       <interface dev='eth13'/>
     </forward>

   The first of these takes the place of the dev attribute that is
   normally in <forward> - when defining a network you can specify
   either one, and on output both will be present. If you specify
   both on input, they must match.

2) In addition to forward modes of 'nat' and 'route', these new modes
   are supported:

     private, passthrough, vepa - when this network is referenced by a
     domain's interface, it will have the same effect as if the
     interface had been defined as type='direct', e.g.:

        <interface type='direct'>
          <source mode='${mode}' dev='${dev}>
          ...
        </interface>

     where ${mode} is one of the three new modes, and ${dev} is an interface
     selected from the list given in <forward>.

     bridge - if a <forward> dev (or multiple devs) is defined, and
     forward mode is 'bridge' this is just like the modes 'private',
     'passthrough', and 'vepa' above. If there is no forward dev
     specified but a bridge name is given (e.g. "<bridge
     name='br0'/>"), then guest interfaces using this network will use
     libvirt's "host bridge" mode, equivalent to this:

       <interface type='bridge'>
          <source bridge='${bridge-name}'/>
          ...
       </interface>

3) A network can have multiple <portgroup> elements, which may be
   selected by the guest interface definition (by adding
   "portgroup='${name}'" in the <source> element along with the
   network name). Currently a portgroup can only contain a
   virtportprofile, but the intent is that other configuration items
   may be put there int the future (e.g. bandwidth config). When
   building a guest's interface, if the <interface> XML itself has no
   virtportprofile, and if the requested network has a portgroup with
   a name matching the name given in the <interface> (or if one of the
   network's portgroups is marked with the "default='yes'" attribute),
   the virtportprofile from that portgroup will be used by the
   interface.

4) A network can have a virtportprofile defined at the top level,
   which will be used by a guest interface when connecting in one of
   the 'direct' modes if the guest interface XML itself hasn't
   specified any virtportprofile, and if there are also no matching
   portgroups on the network.

0c97dc4159 xml: create an RNG file for common types and move some definitions there
domain.rng, network.rng, and interface.rng already use a few of the
same types (or in some cases *should* but don't), and an upcoming code
change will have them sharing even more. To prepare for that, this
patch takes those common data type definitions and moves them into
basictypes.rng.

This may break some rule about the need to RNG files to be autonomous
or something, but I saw that storageencryption.rng is used in this
way, so I figured it must not be completely against the law...

9d4e2845d4 Network: Add support for DNS hosts definition to the network XML
This commit introduces names definition for the DNS hosts file using
the following syntax:

  <dns>
    <host ip="192.168.1.1">
      <name>alias1</name>
      <name>alias2</name>
    </host>
  </dns>

Some of the improvements and fixes were done by Laine Stump so
I'm putting him into the SOB clause again ;-)

5dd986dbd7 Add TXT record support for virtual DNS service
This commit introduces the <dns> element and <txt> record for the
virtual DNS network. The DNS TXT record can be defined using following
syntax in the network XML file:

  <dns>
    <txt name="example" value="example value" />
  </dns>

Also, the Relax-NG scheme has been altered to allow the texts without
spaces only for the name element and some nitpicks about memory
free'ing have been fixed by Laine so therefore I'm adding Laine to the
SOB clause ;-)

5754dbd56d Give each virtual network bridge its own fixed MAC address
This fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609463

The problem was that, since a bridge always acquires the MAC address
of the connected interface with the numerically lowest MAC, as guests
are started and stopped, it was possible for the MAC address to change
over time, and this change in the network was being detected by
Windows 7 (it sees the MAC of the default route change), so on each
reboot it would bring up a dialog box asking about this "new network".

The solution is to create a dummy tap interface with a MAC guaranteed
to be lower than any guest interface's MAC, and attach that tap to the
bridge as soon as it's created. Since all guest MAC addresses start
with 0xFE, we can just generate a MAC with the standard "0x52, 0x54,
0" prefix, and it's guaranteed to always win (physical interfaces are
never connected to these bridges, so we don't need to worry about
competing numerically with them).

Note that the dummy tap is never set to IFF_UP state - that's not
necessary in order for the bridge to take its MAC, and not setting it
to UP eliminates the clutter of having an (eg) "virbr0-nic" displayed
in the output of the ifconfig command.

I chose to not auto-generate the MAC address in the network XML
parser, as there are likely to be consumers of that API that don't
need or want to have a MAC address associated with the
bridge.

Instead, in bridge_driver.c when the network is being defined, if
there is no MAC, one is generated. To account for virtual network
configs that already exist when upgrading from an older version of
libvirt, I've added a %post script to the specfile that searches for
all network definitions in both the config directory
(/etc/libvirt/qemu/networks) and the state directory
(/var/lib/libvirt/network) that are missing a mac address, generates a
random address, and adds it to the config (and a matching address to
the state file, if there is one).

a950dd2a31 Change virtual network XML parsing/formatting to support IPv6
This commit adds support for IPv6 parsing and formatting to the
virtual network XML parser, including moving around data definitions
to allow for multiple <ip> elements on a single network, but only
changes the consumers of this API to accommodate for the changes in
API/structure, not to add any actual IPv6 functionality. That will
come in a later patch - this patch attempts to maintain the same final
functionality in both drivers that use the network XML parser - vbox
and "bridge" (the Linux bridge-based driver used by the qemu
hypervisor driver).

* src/libvirt_private.syms: Add new private API functions.
* src/conf/network_conf.[ch]: Change C data structure and
  parsing/formatting.
* src/network/bridge_driver.c: Update to use new parser/formatter.
* src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: update to use new parser/formatter
* docs/schemas/network.rng: changes to the schema -
  * there can now be more than one <ip> element.
  * ip address is now an ip-addr (ipv4 or ipv6) rather than ipv4-addr
  * new optional "prefix" attribute that can be used in place of "netmask"
  * new optional "family" attribute - "ipv4" or "ipv6"
    (will default to ipv4)
  * define data types for the above
* tests/networkxml2xml(in|out)/nat-network.xml: add multiple <ip> elements
  (including IPv6) to a single network definition to verify they are being
  correctly parsed and formatted.

008abeeeb9 make the <dhcp> element optional in network.rng
In practice this has always been optional, but the RNG has shown it as
mandatory, and since all the examples for make check had it, it was
never noticed. One of the existing test cases has been changed to
check for this.

I also noticed that the dhcp/host/ip was still defined as <text/>,
but should really be <ref name='ipv4-addr'/>

7665440956 Do a better job of validating IP and MAC addresses in network.rng
IP addresses and MAC addresses had been defined in the RNG simply as
<text/> meaning that, according to the RNG, any string could go in
there. Of course the C parsing code does a much better job of
validating, but we may as well have this describing the contents
accurately (even though it's currently only used during "make check").

All the other RNG files in libvirt are enclosed within <grammar>. This
commit makes the syntactical changes necessary to make network.rng fit
that pattern. (This is the first step in adding some data type
definitions to network.rng for more exact validation of IP and MAC
addresses).

Formatting changes (indentation) will be done in a subsequent commit,
so that actual changes to the code won't be obscured by whitespace.

936565c701 Add support for an external TFTP boot server
This patch adds an optional attribute to the <bootp> tag, that
allows to specify a TFTP server address other than the address of
the DHCP server itself.

This can be used to forward the BOOTP settings of the host down to the
guest.  This is something that configurations such as Xen's default
network achieve naturally, but must be done manually for NAT.
