Now that qemu 2.0 allows commit of the active layer, people are
attempting to use virsh blockcommit and getting into a stuck
state, because libvirt is unprepared to handle the two-phase
commit required by qemu.
Stepping back a bit, there are two valid semantics for a
commit operation:
1. Maintain a 'golden' base, and a transient overlay. Make
changes in the overlay, and if everything appears to work,
commit those changes into the base, but still keep the overlay
for the next round of changes; repeat the cycle as desired.
2. Create an external snapshot, then back up the stable state
in the backing file. Once the backup is complete, commit the
overlay back into the base, and delete the temporary snapshot.
Since qemu doesn't know up front which of the two styles is
preferred, a block commit of the active layer merely gets
the job into a synchronized state, and sends an event; then
the user must either cancel (case 1) or complete (case 2),
where qemu then sends a second event that actually ends the
job. However, until commit e6bcbcd, libvirt was blindly
assuming the semantics that apply to a commit of an
intermediate image, where there is only one sane conclusion
(the job automatically ends with fewer elements in the chain);
and getting stuck because it wasn't prepared for qemu to enter
a second phase of the job.
This patch adds a flag to the libvirt API that a user MUST
supply in order to acknowledge that they will be using two-phase
semantics. It might be possible to have a mode where if the
flag is omitted, we automatically do the case 2 semantics on
the user's behalf; but before that happens, I must do additional
patches to track the fact that we are doing an active commit
in the domain XML. Later patches will add support of the flag,
and once 2-phase semantics are working, we can then decide
whether to relax things to allow an omitted flag to cause an
automatic pivot.

The machine is unregistered and its vbox XML file is changed in order to
add snapshot information. The machine is then registered with the
snapshot to redefine.
This structure contains the data to be saved in the VirtualBox XML file
and can be manipulated with severals exposed functions.
The structure is created by vboxSnapshotLoadVboxFile taking the
machine XML file.
It also can rewrite the XML by using vboxSnapshotSaveVboxFile.
The qemu driver always adds these options to the qemu commandlines,
but the commandline parser didn't recognize them, so sending a
libvirt-generated qemu commandline to its own argvtoxml would always
result in a warning message and a qemu namespace added to the
xml. Since the options don't add any functionality to the domain, they
should just be ignored (similar to -S).
Note that we can't yet add a test for this to qemuargv2xmltest,
because we would have to add QEMU_CAPS_NODEFCONFIG and
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE to the capabilities for any corresponding
xml2argvtest, and QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE would necessitate having support
for parsing a memballoon device in order for qemuargv2xmltest to
pass. So we wait to add a test for -nodefconfig and -nodefaults until
after adding support for parsing -device virtio-balloon-*.
qmeuargv2xmltest.c would fail any test that logged anything during
qemuParseCommandline(), but then discard the log message, even with
VIR_TEST_DEBUG=2. This patch outputs the log messages with
fprintf(stderr,...) when debug logging is on.
In the process of modifying that logic, the testInfo data was made
more similar to that of qemuxml2argvtest.c - rather than turning
info->extraFlags into a bool, an enum of flags is defined, the info
struct is given an "unsigned int flags", and FLAG_EXPECT_WARNING is
saved into info->flags, to be checked during the test; this will make
it easier to add other FLAG_EXPECT_* items in the future.

Fix the shell statement testing the 3 binaries.
The original implementation of the VMX config parser assumed that the
virtualHW.version would have more influence on the content of the VMX
file than it actually seems to have. It started with accepting only
version 4. Additonal versions were added later without any additional
changes in the parser itself. This suggests that the influence of the
virtualHW.version on the content and format of the VMX file is small
or non-existent.
The parser worked without any changes across several virtualHW and
vSphere versions. So instead of adding new virtualHW.version values to
the parser as they come along, or adding an extra flag to allow unknown
virtualHW.version values just relax the check to require version 4 or
later.
Now that we track a disk mirror as a virStorageSource, we might
as well update the XML to theoretically allow any type of
mirroring destination (not just a local file). A later patch
will also be reusing <mirror> to track the block commit of the
top layer of a chain, which is another case where libvirt needs
to update the backing chain after the job is finally pivoted,
and since backing chains can have network backing files as the
destination to commit into, it makes more sense to display that
in the XML.
This patch changes output-only XML; it was already documented
that <mirror> does not affect a domain definition at this point
(because qemu doesn't provide persistent bitmaps yet). Any
application that was starting a block copy job with older libvirt
and then relying on the domain XML to determine if it was
complete will no longer be able to access the file= and format=
attributes of mirror that were previously used. However, this is
not going to be a problem in practice: the only time a block copy
job works is on a transient domain, and any app that is managing
a transient domain probably already does enough of its own
bookkeeping to know which file it is mirroring into without
having to re-read it from the libvirt XML. The one thing that
was likely to be used in a mirroring job was the ready=
attribute, which is unchanged. Meanwhile, I made sure the schema
and parser still accept the old format, even if we no longer
output it, so that upgrading from an older version of libvirt is
seamless.

As part of the work on backing chains, I'm finding that it would
be easier to directly manipulate chains of pointers (adding a
snapshot merely adjusts pointers to form the correct list) rather
than copy data from one struct to another. This patch converts
domain disk source to be a pointer.
In this patch, the pointer is ALWAYS allocated (thanks in part to
the previous patch forwarding all disk def allocation through a
common point), and all other changse are just mechanical fallout of
the new type; there should be no functional change. It is possible
that we may want to leave the pointer NULL for a cdrom with no
medium in a later patch, but as that requires a closer audit of the
source to ensure we don't fault on a null dereference, I didn't do
it here.

I found allocation points by looking for any code that increments
ndisks, as well as any matches for ALLOC.*disk. Most places that

A PCI device can be associated with a specific NUMA node. Later, when
a guest is pinned to one NUMA node the PCI device can be assigned on
different NUMA node. This makes DMA transfers travel across nodes and
thus results in suboptimal performance. We should expose the NUMA node
locality for PCI devices so management applications can make better

I accidentally typed 'make' in the srcdir of a VPATH build, and
was surprised to see this:
$ make

./bootstrap: Bootstrapping from checked-out libvirt sources...

Oops - we're trying to execute some fairly bogus command names,
and then trying to configure in-tree (which breaks all existing
VPATH builds, since automake refuses to do a VPATH build if it
detects an in-tree configure). The third line (executing "-n")
is fixed by updating to the latest gnulib; the rest of the problem
is fixed by copying the same filtering in our cfg.mk as what
gnulib just added, so that we avoid any $(shell) invocations which
in turn depend on variables that are only populated by a working
Makefile. With that in place, we are back to the much nicer:
$ make
There seems to be no Makefile in this directory.
You must run ./configure before running 'make'.

Additionally, although harder to see - there was a trailing space in
the message warning us that autogen would run an in-tree configure.

it misses some symbols that virNumaGetDistances() needs. To be
more precise: numa_bitmask_isbitset() and numa_nodes_ptr are the

The qemu JSON monitor test allows to test also expected command

simulated qemu error (in JSON) all other JSON contained in the error
