VFIO requires all of the guest's memory and IO space to be lockable in
RAM. The domain's max_balloon is the maximum amount of memory the
domain can have (in KiB). We add a generous 1GiB to that for IO space
(still much better than KVM device assignment, where the KVM module
actually *ignores* the process limits and locks everything anyway),
and convert from KiB to bytes.
In the case of hotplug, we are changing the limit for the already
existing qemu process (prlimit() is used under the hood), and for
regular commandline additions of vfio devices, we schedule a call to
setrlimit() that will happen after the qemu process is forked.
These were previously being set in a custom hook function, but now
that virCommand directly supports setting them, we can eliminate that
part of the hook and call the APIs directly.
This patch adds two sets of functions:
1) lower level virProcessSet*() functions that will immediately set
the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. RLIMIT_NPROC, or RLIMIT_NOFILE of either the
current process (using setrlimit()) or any other process (using
prlimit()). "current process" is indicated by passing a 0 for pid.
2) functions for virCommand* that will setup a virCommand object to
set those limits at a later time just after it has forked a new
process, but before it execs the new program.
configure.ac has prlimit and setrlimit added to the list of functions
to check for, and the low level functions log an "unsupported" error)
on platforms that don't support those functions.
If a user cgroup name begins with "cgroup.", "_" or with any of
the controllers from /proc/cgroups followed by a dot, then they
need to be prefixed with a single underscore. eg if there is
an object "cpu.service", then this would end up as "_cpu.service"
in the cgroup filesystem tree, however, "waldo.service" would
stay "waldo.service", at least as long as nobody comes up with
a cgroup controller called "waldo".
Since we require a '.XXXX' suffix on all partitions, there is
no scope for clashing with the kernel 'tasks' and 'release_agent'
files.

If the partition named passed in the XML does not already have
a suffix, ensure it gets a '.partition' added to each component.
The exceptions are /machine, /user and /system which do not need
to have a suffix, since they are fixed partitions at the top
level.

Recently we changed to create VM cgroups with the naming pattern
$VMNAME.$DRIVER.libvirt. Following discussions with the systemd
community it was decided that only having a single '.' in the
names is preferrable. So this changes the naming scheme to be
$VMNAME.libvirt-$DRIVER. eg for LXC 'mycontainer.libvirt-lxc' or
for KVM 'myvm.libvirt-qemu'.

Legacy kvm style pci device assignment requires changes to the
labelling of several sysfs files for each device, but for vfio device
assignment, the only thing that needs to be relabelled/chowned is the
"group" device for the group that contains the device to be assigned.
The virsh nodedev-detach command has a new --driver option. If it's
given virsh will attempt to use the new virNodeDeviceDetachFlags API
instead of virNodeDeviceDettach. Validation of the driver name string
is left to the hypervisor (qemu accepts "kvm" or "vfio". The only
other hypervisor that implements these functions is xen, and it only
accepts NULL).
This was the only hypervisor driver other than qemu that implemented
virNodeDeviceDettach. It doesn't currently support multiple pci device
assignment driver backends, but it is simple to plug in this new API,
which will make it easier for Xen people to fill it in later when they
decide to support VFIO (or whatever other) device assignment. Also it
means that management applications will have the same API available to
them for both hypervisors on any given version of libvirt.
The only acceptable value for driverName in this case is NULL, since
there is no alternate, and I'm not willing to pick a name for the
default driver used by Xen.
The differences from virNodeDeviceDettach are very minor:
1) Check that the flags are 0.
2) Set the virPCIDevice's stubDriver according to the driverName that
is passed in.
3) Call virPCIDeviceDetach with a NULL stubDriver, indicating it
should get the name of the stub driver from the virPCIDevice
object.
This requires a custom function for remoteNodeDeviceDetachFlags,
because it is named *NodeDevice, but it goes through the hypervisor
driver rather than nodedevice driver, and so it uses privateData
instead of nodeDevicePrivateData. (It has to go through the hypervisor
driver, because that is the driver that knows about the backend drivers
that will perform the pci device assignment).
The existing virNodeDeviceDettach() assumes that there is only a
single PCI device assignment backend driver appropriate for any
hypervisor. This is no longer true, as the qemu driver is getting
support for PCI device assignment via VFIO. The new API
virNodeDeviceDetachFlags adds a driverName arg that should be set to
the exact same string set in a domain <hostdev>'s <driver name='x'/>
element (i.e. "vfio", "kvm", or NULL for default). It also adds a
flags arg for good measure (and because it's possible we may need it
when we start dealing with VFIO's "device groups").
If the config for a device has specified <driver name='vfio'/>,
"backend" in the pci part of the hostdev object will be set to
..._VFIO. In this case, when creating a virPCIDevice set the
stubDriver to "vfio-pci", otherwise set it to "pci-stub". We will rely
on the lower levels to report an error if the vfio driver isn't
loaded.
The detach/attach functions in virpci.c will pay attention to the
stubDriver setting in the device, and bind/unbind the appropriate
driver when preparing hostdevs for the domain.
Note that we don't yet attempt to do anything to mark active any other
devices in the same vfio "group" as a single device that is being
marked active. We do need to do that, but in order to get basic VFIO
functionality testing sooner rather than later, initially we'll just
live with more cryptic errors when someone tries to do that.
This can be set when the virPCIDevice is created and placed on a list,
then used later when traversing the list to determine which stub
driver to bind/unbind for managed devices.
The existing Detach and Attach functions' signatures haven't been
changed (they still accept a stub driver name in the arg list), but if
the arg list has NULL for stub driver and one is available in the
device's object, that will be used. (we may later deprecate and remove
the arg from those functions).
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).
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>.
There will soon be other items related to pci hostdevs that need to be
in the same part of the hostdevsubsys union as the pci address (which
is currently a single member called "pci". This patch replaces the
single member named pci with a struct named pci that contains a single
member named "addr".
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VFIO_PCI is set if the device named "vfio-pci" is
supported in the qemu binary.
QEMU_CAPS_VFIO_PCI_BOOTINDEX is set if the vfio-pci device supports
the "bootindex" parameter; for some reason, the bootindex parameter
wasn't included in early versions of vfio support (qemu 1.4) so we
have to check for it separately from vfio itself.
POSIX says that both basename() and dirname() may return static
storage (aka they need not be thread-safe); and that they may but
not must modify their input argument. Furthermore, <libgen.h>
is not available on all platforms. For these reasons, you should
never use these functions in a multi-threaded library.
Gnulib instead recommends a way to avoid the portability nightmare:
gnulib's "dirname.h" provides useful thread-safe counterparts. The
obvious dir_name() and base_name() are GPL (because they malloc(),
but call exit() on failure) so we can't use them; but the LGPL
variants mdir_name() (malloc's or returns NULL) and last_component
(always points into the incoming string without modifying it,
differing from basename semantics only on corner cases like the
empty string that we shouldn't be hitting in the first place) are
already in use in libvirt. This finishes the swap over to the safe
functions.

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.
After 9d6e56db the syntax-check was unhappy due to wrong whitespacing:

After 78d7c3c5 we are strdup()-ing path to qemu-bridge-helper.
However, the check for its return value is missing. So it is
possible we've ignored the OOM error silently.
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.
For pSeries guest in QEMU, NVRAM is one kind of spapr-vio device.
Users are allowed to specify spapr-vio devices'address.
But NVRAM is not supported in libvirt. So this patch is to
add NVRAM device to allow users to specify its address.
In QEMU, NVRAM device's address is specified by
"-global spapr-nvram.reg=xxxxx".
In libvirt, XML file is defined as the following:
<nvram>
<address type='spapr-vio' reg='0x3000'/>
</nvram>

Currently, if there has been an error in building command line
process after virtual interfaces has been created, the flow jumps
to 'error' label, where virDomainConfNWFilterTeardown() is
called. This may report an error as well, but should not
overwrite the original cause why we jumped to 'error' label.
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
to pass the certificate dir to qemu.
