I tried to test ./configure --without-lxc --without-remote.
First, the build failed with some odd errors, such as an

But when you think about it, once there is no remote code,
all of libvirtd is useless, any stateful driver that depends
on libvirtd is also not worth compiling, and any libraries
used only by RPC code are not needed. So I patched
configure.ac to make for some saner defaults when an
explicit disable is attempted. Similarly, since we have
migrated virnetdevbridge into generic code, the workaround
for Linux kernel stupidity must not depend on stateful
drivers being in use.
Then there's 'make check' that needs segregation.

some special destination IP addresses always refer to the local

netmask. Packets from virbrN targeting such IP addresses are never routed

When using a <interface type="network"> that points to a network with
hostdev forwarding mode a hostdev alias is created for the network. This
allias is inserted into the hostdev list, but is backed with a part of
the network object that it is connected to.
When a VM is being stopped qemuProcessStop() calls
networkReleaseActualDevice() which eventually frees the memory for the
hostdev object. Afterwards when the domain definition is being freed by
virDomainDefFree() an invalid pointer is accessed by
virDomainHostdevDefFree() and may cause a crash of the daemon.
This patch removes the entry in the hostdev list before freeing the
depending memory to avoid this issue.

Parsing 'user:group' is useful even outside the DAC security driver,
so expose the most abstract function which has no DAC security driver
bits in itself.
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.

Doing DBus method calls using libdbus.so is tedious in the
extreme. systemd developers came up with a nice high level
API for DBus method calls (sd_bus_call_method). While
systemd doesn't use libdbus.so, their API design can easily
be ported to libdbus.so.
This patch thus introduces methods virDBusCallMethod &
virDBusMessageRead, which are based on the code used for
sd_bus_call_method and sd_bus_message_read. This code in
systemd is under the LGPLv2+, so we're license compatible.
This code is probably pretty unintelligible unless you are
familiar with the DBus type system. So I added some API
docs trying to explain how to use them, as well as test
cases to validate that I didn't screw up the adaptation
from the original systemd code.

There are two levels on which a device may be hotplugged: config
and live. The config level requires just an insert or remove from
internal domain definition structure, which is exactly what this
patch does. There is currently no implementation for a chardev
update action, as there's not much to be updated. But more
importantly, the only thing that can be updated is path or socket
address by which chardevs are distinguished. So the update action
is currently not supported.
This new function updates or adds a feature to a existing cpu model
definition. This function will be helpful to allow tuning of
"host-model" features in later patches.
For now, only these three helpers are needed:
virDomainChrFind - to find a duplicate chardev within VM def
virDomainChrInsert - wrapper for inserting a new chardev into VM def
virDomainChrRemove - wrapper for removing chardev from VM def
There is, however, one internal helper as well:
virDomainChrGetDomainPtrs which sets given pointers to one of
vmdef->{parallels,serials,consoles,channels} based on passed
chardev type.
Since neither getpwuid_r() nor initgroups() are safe to call in
between fork and exec (they obtain a mutex, but if some other
thread in the parent also held the mutex at the time of the fork,
the child will deadlock), we have to split out the functionality
that is unsafe. At least glibc's initgroups() uses getgrouplist
under the hood, so the ideal split is to expose getgrouplist for
use before a fork. Gnulib already gives us a nice wrapper via
mgetgroups; we wrap it once more to look up by uid instead of name.

iptablesContext holds only 4 pairs of iptables
(table, chain) and there's no need to pass
it around.
This is a first step towards separating bridge_driver.c
in platform-specific parts.
Any device which belongs to an "IOMMU group" (used by vfio) will
have links to all devices of its group listed in
/sys/bus/pci/$device/iommu_group/devices;
/sys/bus/pci/$device/iommu_group is actually a link to
/sys/kernel/iommu_groups/$n, where $n is the group number (there
will be a corresponding device node at /dev/vfio/$n once the
devices are bound to the vfio-pci driver)
The following functions are added:
virPCIDeviceGetIOMMUGroupList
Gets a virPCIDeviceList with one virPCIDeviceList for each device
in the same IOMMU group as the provided virPCIDevice (a copy of the
original device object is included in the list.
virPCIDeviceAddressIOMMUGroupIterate
Calls the function @actor once for each device in the group that
contains the given virPCIDeviceAddress.
virPCIDeviceAddressGetIOMMUGroupAddresses
Fills in a virPCIDeviceAddressPtr * with an array of
virPCIDeviceAddress, one for each device in the iommu group of the
provided virPCIDeviceAddress (including a copy of the original).
virPCIDeviceAddressGetIOMMUGroupNum
Returns the group number as an int (a valid group number will always
be 0 or greater). If there is no iommu_group link in the device's
directory (usually indicating that vfio isn't loaded), -2 will be
returned. On any real error, -1 will be returned.
I realized after the fact that it's probably better in the long run to
give this function a name that matches the name of the link used in
sysfs to hold the group (iommu_group).
I'm changing it now because I'm about to add several more functions
that deal with iommu groups.
All APIs that take typed parameters are only using params address in
their entry point debug messages. With the new VIR_TYPED_PARAMS_DEBUG
macro, all functions can easily log all individual typed parameters
passed to them.
* virPCIDeviceFindByIDs - find a device on a list w/o creating an object
This makes searching for an existing device on a list lighter weight.
* virPCIDeviceCopy - make a copy of an existing virPCIDevice object.
* virPCIDeviceGetDriverPathAndName - construct new strings containing
1) the name of the driver bound to this device.
2) the full path to the sysfs config for that driver.
(This code was lifted from virPCIDeviceUnbindFromStub, and replaced
there with a call to this new function).

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.

Since PIDs can be reused, polkit prefers to be given

it will attempt to lookup the start time in /proc/pid/stat,

time itself, because as long as the app has the client
