Commit ef5d51d fixed a crash for numatune with auto placement and

Starting with qemu 1.6, the qemu-system-arm vexpress-a9 model has a
hardcoded virtio-mmio transport which enables attaching all virtio
devices.
On the command line, we have to use virtio-XXX-device rather than
virtio-XXX-pci, thankfully s390 already set the precedent here so
it's fairly straight forward.
At the XML level, this adds a new device address type virtio-mmio.
The controller and addressing don't have any subelements at the
moment because we they aren't needed for this usecase, but could
be added later if needed.
Add a test case for an ARM guest with one of every virtio device
enabled.
Similar to the chardev bit, ARM boards depend on the old style '-net nic'
for actually instantiating net devices. But we can't block out
-netdev altogether since it's needed for upcoming virtio support.
And add tests for working ARM XML with console, disk, and networking.
On my machine, a guest fails to boot if it has a sound card, but not
graphical device/display is configured, because pulseaudio fails to
initialize since it can't access $HOME.
A workaround is removing the audio device, however on ARM boards there
isn't any option to do that, so -nographic always fails.
Set QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none if no <graphics> are configured. Unfortunately
this has massive test suite fallout.
Add a qemu.conf parameter nographics_allow_host_audio, that if enabled
will pass through QEMU_AUDIO_DRV from sysconfig (similar to
vnc_allow_host_audio)
Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
which is the same behaviour as before.
To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
'-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.

QEMU commit 3984890 introduced the "pci-hole64-size" property,
to i440FX-pcihost and q35-pcihost with a default setting of 2 GB.
Translate <pcihole64>x<pcihole64/> to:
-global q35-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=x for q35 machines and
-global i440FX-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=x for i440FX-based machines.
Error out on other machine types or if the size was specified
but the pcihost device lacks 'pci-hole64-size' property.

<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'>

</controller>
It can be used to adjust (or disable) the size of the 64-bit
PCI hole. The size attribute is in kilobytes (different unit
can be specified on input), but it gets rounded up to
the nearest GB by QEMU.
Disabling it will be needed for guests that crash with the
64-bit PCI hole (like Windows XP), see:

Commit 904e05a2 (v0.9.9) added a per-<disk> seclabel element with
an attribute relabel='no' in order to try and minimize the
impact of shutdown delays when an NFS server disappears. The idea
was that if a disk is on NFS and can't be labeled in the first
place, there is no need to attempt the (no-op) relabel on domain
shutdown. Unfortunately, the way this was implemented was by
modifying the domain XML so that the optimization would survive
libvirtd restart, but in a way that is indistinguishable from an
explicit user setting. Furthermore, once the setting is turned
on, libvirt avoids attempts at labeling, even for operations like
snapshot or blockcopy where the chain is being extended or pivoted
onto non-NFS, where SELinux labeling is once again possible. As
a result, it was impossible to do a blockcopy to pivot from an
NFS image file onto a local file.
The solution is to separate the semantics of a chain that must
not be labeled (which the user can set even on persistent domains)
vs. the optimization of not attempting a relabel on cleanup (a
live-only annotation), and using only the user's explicit notation
rather than the optimization as the decision on whether to skip
a label attempt in the first place. When upgrading an older
libvirtd to a newer, an NFS volume will still attempt the relabel;
but as the avoidance of a relabel was only an optimization, this
shouldn't cause any problems.
In the ideal future, libvirt will eventually have XML describing
EVERY file in the backing chain, with each file having a separate
<seclabel> element. At that point, libvirt will be able to track
more closely which files need a relabel attempt at shutdown. But
until we reach that point, the single <seclabel> for the entire
<disk> chain is treated as a hint - when a chain has only one
file, then we know it is accurate; but if the chain has more than
one file, we have to attempt relabel in spite of the attribute,
in case part of the chain is local and SELinux mattered for that
portion of the chain.

q35 machines have an implicit ahci (sata) controller at 00:1F.2 which
has no "id" associated with it. For this reason, we can't refer to it
as "ahci0". Instead, we don't give an id on the commandline, which
qemu interprets as "use the first ahci controller". We then need to
specify the unit with "unit=%d" rather than adding it onto the bus
arg.
We had been setting the device alias in the devinceinfo for pci
controllers to "pci%u", but then hardcoding "pci.%u" when creating the
device address for other devices using that pci bus. This all worked
just fine until we encountered the built-in "pcie.0" bus (the PCIe
root complex) in Q35 machines.
In order to create the correct commandline for this one case, this
patch:
1) sets the alias for PCI controllers correctly, to "pci.%u" (or
"pcie.%u" for the pcie-root controller)
2) eliminates the hardcoded "pci.%u" for pci controllers when
generatuing device address strings, and instead uses the controller's
alias.
3) plumbs a pointer to the virDomainDef all the way down to
qemuBuildDeviceAddressStr. This was necessary in order to make the
aliase of the controller *used by a device* available (previously
qemuBuildDeviceAddressStr only had the deviceinfo of the device
itself, *not* of the controller it was connecting to). This made for a
larger than desired diff, but at least in the future we won't have to
do it again, since all the information we could possibly ever need for
future enhancements is in the virDomainDef. (right?)
This should be done for *all* controllers, but for now we just do it
in the case of PCI controllers, to reduce the likelyhood of
regression.
This patch adds in special handling for a few devices that need to be
treated differently for q35 domains:
usb - there is no implicit/default usb controller for the q35
machinetype. This is done because normally the default usb controller
is added to a domain by just adding "-usb" to the qemu commandline,
and it's assumed that this will add a single piix3 usb1 controller at
slot 1 function 2. That's not what happens when the machinetype is
q35, though. Instead, adding -usb to the commandline adds 3 usb
(version 2) controllers to the domain at slot 0x1D.{1,2,7}. Rather
than having
<controller type='usb' index='0'/>
translate into 3 separate devices on the PCI bus, it's cleaner to not
automatically add a default usb device; one can always be added
explicitly if desired. Or we may decide that on q35 machines, 3 usb
controllers will be automatically added when none is given. But for
this initial commit, at least we aren't locking ourselves into
something we later won't want.
video - qemu always initializes the primary video device immediately
after any integrated devices for the machinetype. Unless instructed
otherwise (by using "-device vga..." instead of "-vga" which libvirt
uses in many cases to work around deficiencies and bugs in various
qemu versions) qemu will always pick the first unused slot. In the
case of the "pc" machinetype and its derivatives, this is always slot
2, but on q35 machinetypes, the first free slot is slot 1 (since the
q35's integrated peripheral devices are placed in other slots,
e.g. slot 0x1f). In order to make the PCI address of the video device
predictable, that slot (1 or 2, depending on machinetype) is reserved
even when no video device has been specified.
sata - a q35 machine always has a sata controller implicitly added at
slot 0x1F, function 2. There is no way to avoid this controller, so we
always add it. Note that the xml2xml tests for the pcie-root and q35
cases were changed to use DO_TEST_DIFFERENT() so that we can check for
the sata controller being automatically added. This is especially
important because we can't check for it in the xml2argv output (it has
no effect on that output since it's an implicit device).
ide - q35 has no ide controllers.
isa and smbus controllers - these two are always present in a q35 (at
slot 0x1F functions 0 and 3) but we have no way of modelling them in
our config. We do need to reserve those functions so that the user
doesn't attempt to put anything else there though. (note that the "pc"
machine type also has an ISA controller, which we also ignore).
This PCI controller, named "dmi-to-pci-bridge" in the libvirt config,
and implemented with qemu's "i82801b11-bridge" device, connects to a
PCI Express slot (e.g. one of the slots provided by the pcie-root
controller, aka "pcie.0" on the qemu commandline), and provides 31
*non-hot-pluggable* PCI (*not* PCIe) slots, numbered 1-31.
Any time a machine is defined which has a pcie-root controller
(i.e. any q35-based machinetype), libvirt will automatically add a
dmi-to-pci-bridge controller if one doesn't exist, and also add a
pci-bridge controller. The reasoning here is that any useful domain
will have either an immediate (startup time) or eventual (subsequent
hot-plug) need for a standard PCI slot; since the pcie-root controller
only provides PCIe slots, we need to connect a dmi-to-pci-bridge
controller to it in order to get a non-hot-plug PCI slot that we can
then use to connect a pci-bridge - the slots provided by the
pci-bridge will be both standard PCI and hot-pluggable.
Since pci-bridge devices themselves can not be hot-plugged into a
running system (although you can hot-plug other devices into a
pci-bridge's slots), any new pci-bridge controller that is added can
(and will) be plugged into the dmi-to-pci-bridge as long as it has
empty slots available.
This patch is also changing the qemuxml2xml-pcie test from a "DO_TEST"
to a "DO_DIFFERENT_TEST". This is so that the "before" xml can omit
the automatically added dmi-to-pci-bridge and pci-bridge devices, and
the "after" xml can include it - this way we are testing if libvirt is
properly adding these devices.
This controller is implicit on q35 machinetypes. It provides 31 PCIe
(*not* PCI) slots as controller 0.
Currently there are no devices that can connect to pcie-root, and no
implicit pci controller on a q35 machine, so q35 is still
unusable. For a usable q35 system, we need to add a
"dmi-to-pci-bridge" pci controller, which can connect to pcie-root,
and provides standard pci slots that can be used to connect other
devices.
Since PCI bridges, PCIe bridges, PCIe switches, and PCIe root ports
all share the same namespace, they are all defined as controllers of
type='pci' in libvirt (but with a differing model attribute). Each of
these controllers has a certain connection type upstream, allows
certain connection types downstream, and each can either allow a
single downstream connection at slot 0, or connections from slot 1 -
31.
Right now, we only support the pci-root and pci-bridge devices, both
of which only allow PCI devices to connect, and both which have usable
slots 1 - 31. In preparation for adding other types of controllers
that have different capabilities, this patch 1) adds info to the
qemuDomainPCIAddressBus object to indicate the capabilities, 2) sets
those capabilities appropriately for pci-root and pci-bridge devices,
and 3) validates that the controller being connected to is the proper
type when allocating slots or validating that a user-selected slot is
appropriate for a device..
Having this infrastructure in place will make it much easier to add
support for the other PCI controller types.
While it would be possible to do all the necessary checking by just
storing the controller model in the qemyuDomainPCIAddressBus, it
greatly simplifies all the validation code to also keep a "flags",
"minSlot" and "maxSlot" for each - that way we can just check those
attributes rather than requiring a nearly identical switch statement
everywhere we need to validate compatibility.
You may notice many places where the flags are seemingly hard-coded to
QEMU_PCI_CONNECT_HOTPLUGGABLE | QEMU_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCI
This is currently the correct value for all PCI devices, and in the
future will be the default, with small bits of code added to change to
the flags for the few devices which are the exceptions to this rule.
Finally, there are a few places with "FIXME" comments. Note that these
aren't indicating places that are broken according to the currently
supported devices, they are places that will need fixing when support
for new PCI controller models is added.
To assure that there was no regression in the auto-allocation of PCI
addresses or auto-creation of integrated pci-root, ide, and usb
controllers, a new test case (pci-bridge-many-disks) has been added to
both the qemuxml2argv and qemuxml2xml tests. This new test defines a
domain with several dozen virtio disks but no pci-root or
pci-bridges. The .args file of the new test case was created using
libvirt sources from before this patch, and the test still passes
after this patch has been applied.
The implicit IDE, USB, and video controllers provided by the PIIX3
chipset in the pc-* machinetypes are not present on other
machinetypes, so we shouldn't be doing the special checking for
them. This patch places those validation checks into a separate
function that is only called for machine types that have a PIIX3 chip
(which happens to be the i440fx-based pc-* machine types).
One qemuxml2argv test data file had to be changed - the
pseries-usb-multi test had included a piix3-usb-uhci device, which was
being placed at a specific address, and also had slot 2 auto reserved
for a video device, but the pseries virtual machine doesn't actually
have a PIIX3 chip, so even if there was a piix3-usb-uhci driver for
it, the device wouldn't need to reside at slot 1 function 2. I just
changed the .argv file to have the generic slot info for the two
devices that results when the special PIIX3 code isn't executed.
There are two ways to use a iSCSI LUN as disk source for qemu.
* The LUN's path as it shows up on host, e.g.
/dev/disk/by-path/ip-$ip:3260-iscsi-$iqn-fc18:iscsi.iscsi0-lun-1
* The libiscsi URI from the storage pool source element host attribute, e.g.
iscsi://demo.org:6000/iqn.1992-01.com.example/1
For a "volume" type disk, if the specified "pool" is of iscsi
type, we should support to use the LUN in either of above 2 ways.
That's why to introduce a new XML tag "mode" for the disk source
(libvirt should support iscsi pool with libiscsi, but it's another
new feature, which should be done later).
The "mode" can be either of "host" or "direct". Use "host" to indicate
use of the LUN with the path as it shows up on host. Use "direct" to
indicate to use it with the source pool host URI (future patches may support
to use network type libvirt storage too, e.g. Ceph)
The alias for hostdevs of type SCSI can be too long for QEMU if
larger LUNs are encountered. Here's a real life example:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='no'>
<source>
<adapter name='scsi_host0'/>
<address bus='0' target='19' unit='1088634913'/>
</source>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</hostdev>
this results in a too long drive id, resulting in QEMU yelling
Property 'scsi-generic.drive' can't find value 'drive-hostdev-scsi_host0-0-19-1088634913'
This commit changes the alias back to the default hostdev$(index)
scheme.

Long lines are harder to read and harder to diff; in fact, if lines get

The test is currently testing just device update function. However,
chardev hotplug is implemented just for device attach and detach. This
fact means, the test needs to be rewritten (the majority of the code is
still shared). Moreover, we are now able to pass VM among multiple test
runs. So for instance, while we add a device in the first run, we can
remove it in the second run.

As my punishment for the break in 7f15ebc7 (fixed in 752596b5dd) I'm
introducing this test to make sure it won't happen again. Currently,
only test for <graphics/> is supported.
With unknown good reasons, the attribute "bus" of scsi device
address is always set to 0, same for attribute "target". (See
virDomainDiskDefAssignAddress).
Though we might need to change the algorithm to honor "bus"
and "target" too, that's a different issue. The address generator
for scsi host device in this patch just follows the unknown
good reasons, only considering the "controller" and "unit".
It walks through all scsi controllers and their units, to see
if the address $controller:0:0:$unit can be used (if not used
by any disk or scsi host device yet), if found one, it sits on
it, otherwise, it creates a new controller (actually the controller
is implicitly created by someone else), and sits on
$new_controller:0:0:0 instead.
This attribute is going to represent number of queues for
multique vhost network interface. This commit implements XML
extension part of the feature and add one test as well. For now,
we can only do xml2xml test as qemu command line generation code
is not adapted yet.
QEMU might support more values for "-drive discard", so using Bi-state
values (on/off) for it doesn't make sense.
"on" maps to "unmap", "off" maps to "ignore":
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.
</...>
The reason for it's not exposed for such long time is that the
enums for VirtioEventIdx and CopyOnReadType have same enum values
and Correspondingstrings. This fixes the bug and adds test.
If the <sysinfo> system table 'uuid' field is improperly formatted,
then qemu will fail to start the guest with the error:
virsh start dom
error: Failed to start domain dom
error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: Invalid SMBIOS UUID string
This was because the parsing rules were lax with respect to allowing extraneous
spaces and dashes in the provided UUID. As long as there were 32 hexavalues
that matched the UUID for the domain the string was accepted. However startup
failed because the string format wasn't correct. This patch will adjust the
string format so that when it's presented to the driver it's in the expected
format.
Added a test for uuid comparison within sysinfo.
QEMU introduced "discard" option for drive since commit a9384aff53,
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.
</...>
This patch exposes the support in libvirt.
QEMU supported "discard" for "-drive" since v1.5.0-rc0:
% git tag --contains a9384aff53
contains
v1.5.0-rc0
v1.5.0-rc1
So this only detects the capability bit using virQEMUCapsProbeQMPCommandLine.
Adding a VNC WebSocket support for QEMU driver. This functionality is
in upstream qemu from commit described as v1.3.0-982-g7536ee4, so the

it by new XML:

Except the scsi host device's controller is "lsilogic", mapping
between the libvirt attributes and scsi-generic properties is:
libvirt qemu
-----------------------------------------
controller bus ($libvirt_controller.0)
bus channel
target scsi-id
unit lun
For scsi host device with "lsilogic" controller, the mapping is:
('target (libvirt)' must be 0, as it's not used; 'unit (libvirt)
must <= 7).
libvirt qemu
----------------------------------------------------------
controller && bus bus ($libvirt_controller.$libvirt_bus)
unit scsi-id
It's not good to hardcode/hard-check limits of these attributes,
and even worse, these limits are not documented, one has to find
out by either testing or reading the qemu code, I'm looking forward
to qemu expose limits like these one day). For example, exposing
"max_target", "max_lun" for megasas:
static const struct SCSIBusInfo megasas_scsi_info = {
.tcq = true,
.max_target = MFI_MAX_LD,
.max_lun = 255,
.transfer_data = megasas_xfer_complete,
.get_sg_list = megasas_get_sg_list,
.complete = megasas_command_complete,
.cancel = megasas_command_cancel,
};
Example of the qemu command line (lsilogic controller):
-drive file=/dev/sg2,if=none,id=drive-hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0 \
-device scsi-generic,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=8,\
drive=drive-hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0,id=hostdev-scsi_host7-0-0-0
Example of the qemu command line (virtio-scsi controller):

-device scsi-generic,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=128,lun=128,\

the user wants (same problem exists for virtio-scsi disk). It's
the existing problem, will be addressed later.
The device address must be specified manually. Later patch will let
libvirt generate it automatically.
This only introduces the generic XMLs for scsi hostdev, later patches
will add other elements, e.g. <readonly>, <shareable>.

For s390 we don't want to have a default USB device generated even
if QEMU is silently tolerating -usb on the command line. This may change
in the future.
Another reason to avoid the USB controller is that it implies a PCI
bus which might cause a regression at some later point in time.
The following change will set the USB controller model to 'none'
unless a model or address has been specified, which can be the case
if a legacy definition is loaded or the XML writer knows what
she/he's doing.
Requiring the user to explicitly disable USB on systems not supporting
it seems cumbersome.

In the past we automatically added a USB controller and assigned
it a PCI address (0:0:1.2) even on machines without a PCI bus.
This didn't break machines with no PCI bus because the command
line for it is just '-usb', with no mention of the PCI bus.
The implicit IDE controller (reserved address 0:0:1.1) has
no command line at all.
Commit b33eb0dc removed the ability to reserve PCI addresses
on machines without a PCI bus. This made them stop working,
since there would always be the implicit USB controller.
Skip the reservation of addresses for these controllers when
there is no PCI bus, instead of failing.
The device option for vfio-pci is nearly identical to that for
pci-assign - only the configfd parameter isn't supported (or needed).
Checking for presence of the bootindex parameter is done separately
from constructing the commandline, similar to how it is done for
pci-assign.
This patch contains tests to check for proper commandline
construction. It also includes tests for parser-formatter-parser
roundtrips (xml2xml), because those tests use the same data files, and
would have failed had they been included before now.
qemu: xml/args tests for VFIO hostdev and <interface type='hostdev'/>
These should be squashed in with the patch that adds commandline
handling of vfio (they would fail at any earlier time).
When all usb controllers connected to the same bus have <master
startport='x'/> specified, none of them have 'id=usb' assigned and
thus qemu fails due to invalid masterport specification (we use 'usb'
for that purpose). Adding a check that at least one of the
controllers is specified without <master startport='x'/> and in case
this happens, error out due to invalid configuration.
Add a "dry run" address allocation to figure out how many bridges
will be needed for all the devices without explicit addresses.
Auto-add just enough bridges to put all the devices on, or up to the
bridge with the largest specified index.
<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'/>
is auto-added to pc* machine types.
Without this controller PCI bus 0 is not available and
no PCI addresses are assigned by default.
Since older libvirt supported PCI bus 0 even without
this controller, it is removed from the XML when migrating.
Now we set the default disk driver name when parsing
the qemu command line too, hence all the test changes.
Assume format type is 'auto' when none is specified on
qemu command line.
Instead of making a choice between the underscore and camelCase, this
simply changes "num_queues" into "queues", which is also consistent
with Michal's multiple queue support for interface.
Improve error reporting and generating of SPICE command line arguments
according to the need to enable TLS. If TLS is disabled, there's no need

The recent qemu requires "0x" prefix for the disk wwn, this patch
changes virValidateWWN to allow the prefix, and prepend "0x" if
it's not specified. E.g.
qemu-kvm: -device scsi-hd,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=0,lun=0,\
drive=drive-scsi0-0-0-0,id=scsi0-0-0-0,wwn=6000c60016ea71ad:
Property 'scsi-hd.wwn' doesn't take value '6000c60016ea71ad'
Though it's a qemu regression, but it's nice to allow the prefix,
and doesn't hurt for us to always output "0x".
To avoid the collision for creating USB controllers in machine->init()
and -device xx command line, it needs to set usb=off to avoid one USB
controller created in machine->init(). So that libvirt can use -device
or -usb to create USB controller sucessfully.
So QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_USB_OPT capability is added, and it is for QEMU
v1.3.0 onwards which supports USB option.

libiscsi provides a userspace iSCSI initiator.
The main advantage over the kernel initiator is that it is very
easy to provide different initiator names for VMs on the same host.
Thus libiscsi supports usage of persistent reservations in the VM,
which otherwise would only be possible with NPIV.
libiscsi uses "iscsi" as the scheme, not "iscsi+tcp". We can change
this in the tests (while remaining backwards-compatible manner, because

Qemu's implementation of virtio RNG supports rate limiting of the

This patch is based on qemu commit 904d6f588063fb5ad2b61998acdf1e73fb4
The rate limiting is exported in the XML as:
<devices>
...
<rng model='virtio'>
<rate bytes='123' period='1234'/>
<backend model='random'/>

Code that validates the whitelist for the RNG device filename
didn't account for fact that filename may be NULL. This led

There is some controversy[1] on the qemu list on whether qemu should
have ever allowed arbitrary file name passthrough, or whether it
should be restricted to JUST /dev/random and /dev/hwrng. It is
always easier to add support for additional filenames than it is
to remove support for something once released, so this patch
restricts libvirt 1.0.3 (where the virtio-random backend was first
supported) to just the two uncontroversial names, letting us defer
to a later date any decision on whether supporting arbitrary files
makes sense. Additionally, since qemu 1.4 does NOT support
/dev/fdset/nnn fd passthrough for the backend, limiting to just
two known names means that we don't get tempted to try fd
passthrough where it won't work.

Currently the virQEMUDriverPtr struct contains an wide variety
of data with varying access needs. Move all the static config
data into a dedicated virQEMUDriverConfigPtr object. The only
locking requirement is to hold the driver lock, while obtaining
an instance of virQEMUDriverConfigPtr. Once a reference is held
on the config object, it can be used completely lockless since
it is immutable.
NB, not all APIs correctly hold the driver lock while getting
a reference to the config object in this patch. This is safe
for now since the config is never updated on the fly. Later
patches will address this fully.

Hosts for rbd are ceph monitor daemons. These have fixed IP addresses,
so they are often referenced by IP rather than hostname for
convenience, or to avoid relying on DNS. Using IPv4 addresses as the
host name works already, but IPv6 addresses require rbd-specific
escaping because the colon is used as an option separator in the
string passed to qemu.
Escape these colons, and enclose the IPv6 address in square brackets
so it is distinguished from the port, which is currently mandatory.

Like "rawio", "sgio" is only allowed for block disk of device
type "lun".
It doesn't default disk->sgio to "filtered" when parsing, as
it won't be able to distinguish explicitly requested "filtered"
and a default "filtered" in driver then. We have to error out for
explicit request when the kernel doesn't support the new sysfs
knob "unpriv_sgio", however, for defaulted "filtered", we can
just ignore it if the kernel doesn't support "unpriv_sgio".
QEMU supports setting vendor and product strings for disk since
1.2.0 (only scsi-disk, scsi-hd, scsi-cd support it), this patch
exposes it with new XML elements <vendor> and <product> of disk
device.
Several tests assume that VNC is always available and include it in
their configs and the expected command line. The tests have nothing to
do with graphics display so they shouldn't rely on VNC.
When both kvmclock and kvm_pv_eoi are configured (either disabled or
enabled) libvirt will generate invalid CPU specification due to the
fact that even though kvmclock causes the CPU to be specified, it
doesn't set have_cpu flag to true (and the new kvm_pv_eoi as well).
This patch fixes the issue and adds a test exactly for that to show
that it is fixed correctly (and also to keep it that way in the future
of course).
When launching a QEMU guest the binary is probed to discover
the list of supported CPU names. Remove this probing with a
simple lookup of CPU models in the qemuCapsPtr object. This
avoids another invocation of the QEMU binary during the
startup path.
As a nice benefit we can now remove all the nasty hacks from
the test suite which were done to avoid having to exec QEMU
on the test system. The building of the -cpu command line
can just rely on data we pre-populate in qemuCapsPtr.

This patch cleans up building the "-boot" parameter and while on that
fixes one inconsistency by modifying these things:
- I completed the unfinished virDomainBootMenu enum by specifying
LAST, declaring it and also declaring the TypeFromString and
TypeToString parameters.
- Previously mentioned TypeFromString and TypeToString are used when
parsing the XML.
- Last, but not least, visible change is that the "-boot" parameter
is built and parsed properly:
- The "order=" prefix is used only when additional parameters are
used (menu, etc.).
- It's rewritten in a way that other parameters can be added
easily in the future (used in following patch).
- The "order=" parameter is properly parsed regardless to where it
is placed in the string (e.g. "menu=on,order=nc").
- The "menu=" parameter (and others in the future) are created
when they should be (i.e. even when bootindex is supported and
used, but not when bootloader is selected).

This patch adds full support for EOI setting for domains. Because this

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'/>
...
</interface>
<network>
<name>vlan-net</name>
<vlan trunk='yes'>
<tag id='30'/>

<virtualport type='openvswitch'/>

<interface type='network'/>
<source network='vlan-net'/>
...
</interface>
<network>
<name>trunk-vlan</name>

<vlan>
<tag id='666'/>
</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.)
Until now, all attributes in a <virtualport> parameter list that were
acceptable for a particular type, were also required. There were no
optional attributes.
One of the aims of supporting <virtualport> in libvirt's virtual
networks and portgroups is to allow specifying the group-wide
parameters in the network's virtualport, and merge that with the
interface's virtualport, which will have the instance-specific info
(i.e. the interfaceid or instanceid).
Additionally, the guest's interface XML shouldn't need to know what
type of network connection will be used prior to runtime - it could be
openvswitch, 802.1Qbh, 802.1Qbg, or none of the above - but should
still be able to specify instance-specific info just in case it turns
out to be applicable.
Finally, up to now, the parser for virtualport has always generated a
random instanceid/interfaceid when appropriate, making it impossible
to leave it blank (which is what's required for virtualports within a
network/portprofile definition).
This patch modifies the parser and formatter of the <virtualport>
element in the following ways:
* because most of the attributes in a virNetDevVPortProfile are fixed
size binary data with no reserved values, there is no way to embed a
"this value wasn't specified" sentinel into the existing data. To
solve this problem, the new *_specified fields in the
virNetDevVPortProfile object that were added in a previous patch of
this series are now set when the corresponding attribute is present
during the parse.
* allow parsing/formatting a <virtualport> that has no type set. In
this case, all fields are settable, but all are also optional.
* add a GENERATE_MISSING_DEFAULTS flag to the parser - if this flag is
set and an instanceid/interfaceid is expected but not provided, a
random one will be generated. This was previously the default
behavior, but is now done only for virtualports inside an
<interface> definition, not for those in <network> or <portgroup>.
* add a REQUIRE_ALL_ATTRIBUTES flag to the parser - if this flag is
set the parser will call the new
virNetDevVPortProfileCheckComplete() functions at the end of the
parser to check for any missing attributes (based on type), and
return failure if anything is missing. This used to be default
behavior. Now it is only used for the virtualport defined inside an
interface's <actual> element (by the time you've figured out the
contents of <actual>, you should have all the necessary data to fill
in the entire virtualport)
* add a REQUIRE_TYPE flag to the parser - if this flag is set, the
parser will return an error if the virtualport has no type
attribute. This also was previously the default behavior, but isn't
needed in the case of the virtualport for a type='network' interface
(i.e. the exact type isn't yet known), or the virtualport of a
portgroup (i.e. the portgroup just has modifiers for the network's
virtualport, which *does* require a type) - in those cases, the
check will be done at domain startup, once the final virtualport is
assembled (this is handled in the next patch).
This patch enables the "none" USB controller for qemu guests and adds
valdiation on hot-plugged devices if the guest has USB disabled.

Commit 5e6ce1 moved down detection of the ACPI feature in
qemuParseCommandLine. However, when ACPI is detected, it clears
all feature flags in def->features to only set ACPI. This used to
be fine because this was the first place were def->features was set,
but after the move this is no longer necessarily true because this
block comes before the ACPI check:
if (strstr(def->emulator, "kvm")) {
def->virtType = VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_KVM;
def->features |= (1 << VIR_DOMAIN_FEATURE_PAE);
}
Since def is allocated in qemuParseCommandLine using VIR_ALLOC, we

For pseries guest, the default controller model is
ibmvscsi controller, this controller only can work
on spapr-vio address.
This patch is to assign spapr-vio address type to
ibmvscsi controller and correct vscsi test case.

<vcpu> is not an optional node. The value for its 'placement'
actually always defaults to 'static' in the underlying codes.
(Even no 'cpuset' and 'placement' is specified, the domain
process will be pinned to all the available pCPUs).
Though numad will manage the memory allocation of task dynamically,
it wants management application (libvirt) to pre-set the memory
policy according to the advisory nodeset returned from querying numad,
(just like pre-bind CPU nodeset for domain process), and thus the
performance could benefit much more from it.
This patch introduces new XML tag 'placement', value 'auto' indicates
whether to set the memory policy with the advisory nodeset from numad,
and its value defaults to the value of <vcpu> placement, or 'static'
if 'nodeset' is specified. Example of the new XML tag's usage:
<numatune>
<memory placement='auto' mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
Just like what current "numatune" does, the 'auto' numa memory policy
setting uses libnuma's API too.
If <vcpu> "placement" is "auto", and <numatune> is not specified
explicitly, a default <numatume> will be added with "placement"
set as "auto", and "mode" set as "strict".
The following XML can now fully drive numad:
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no <numatune> is specified.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no 'placement' is specified for
<numatune>.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
And it's also able to control the CPU placement and memory policy
independently. e.g.
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', and <numatune> placement is 'static'
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='strict' nodeset='0-10,^7'/>
</numatune>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'static', and <numatune> placement is 'auto'
<vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-24,^12'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave' placement='auto'/>
</numatume>
A follow up patch will change the XML formatting codes to always output
'placement' for <vcpu>, even it's 'static'.
qemu's behavior in this case is to change the spice server behavior to
require secure connection to any channel not otherwise specified as
being in plaintext mode. libvirt doesn't currently allow requesting this
(via plaintext-channel=<channel name>).

This works with newer qemu that doesn't allow escaping spaces.
It's backwards compatible as well.

In order to track a block copy job across libvirtd restarts, we
need to save internal XML that tracks the name of the file
holding the mirror. Displaying this name in dumpxml might also
be useful to the user, even if we don't yet have a way to (re-)
start a domain with mirroring enabled up front. This is done
with a new <mirror> sub-element to <disk>, as in:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/original.img'/>
<mirror file='/var/lib/libvirt/images/copy.img' format='qcow2' ready='yes'/>
...
</disk>
For now, the element is output-only, in live domains; it is ignored
when defining a domain or hot-plugging a disk (since those contexts
use VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE in parsing). The 'ready' attribute appears
when libvirt knows that the job has changed from the initial pulling
phase over to the mirroring phase, although absence of the attribute
is not a sure indicator of the current phase. If we come up with a way
to make qemu start with mirroring enabled, we can relax the xml
restriction, and allow <mirror> (but not attribute 'ready') on input.
Testing active-only XML meant tweaking the testsuite slightly, but it
was worth it.

A "ide-drive" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,
if there is ",media=cdrom" specified for the backend, it's
a CD-ROM, otherwise it's a hard disk.
Upstream qemu splitted "ide-drive" into "ide-hd" and "ide-cd"
since commit 1f56e32, and ",media=cdrom" is not required for
ide-cd anymore. "ide-drive" is still supported for backwards
compatibility, but no doubt we should go foward.
A "scsi-disk" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,
if there is ",media=cdrom" specified for the backend, it's
a CD-ROM, otherwise it's a hard disk.
But upstream qemu splitted "scsi-disk" into "scsi-hd" and
"scsi-cd" since commit b443ae, and ",media=cdrom" is not
required for scsi-cd anymore. "scsi-disk" is still supported
for backwards compatibility, but no doubt we should go
foward.

Since Xen 3.1 the clock=variable semantic is supported. In addition to
qemu/kvm Xen also knows about a variant where the offset is relative to
'localtime' instead of 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'basis' to specify, if the
offset is relative to 'localtime' or 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'reset' to force the reset
behaviour of 'localtime' and 'utc'; this is needed for backward
compatibility with previous versions of libvirt, since they report
incorrect XML.
Adapt the only user 'qemu' to the new name.
Extend the RelaxNG schema accordingly.
Document the new 'basis' attribute in the HTML documentation.
Adapt test for the new attribute.
