The previously introduced virFile{Lock,Unlock} APIs provide a
way to acquire/release fcntl() locks on individual files. For
unknown reason though, the POSIX spec says that fcntl() locks
are released when *any* file handle referring to the same path
is closed. In the following sequence
threadA: fd1 = open("foo")
threadB: fd2 = open("foo")
threadA: virFileLock(fd1)
threadB: virFileLock(fd2)
threadB: close(fd2)
you'd expect threadA to come out holding a lock on 'foo', and
indeed it does hold a lock for a very short time. Unfortunately
when threadB does close(fd2) this releases the lock associated
with fd1. For the current libvirt use case for virFileLock -
pidfiles - this doesn't matter since the lock is acquired
at startup while single threaded an never released until
exit.
To provide a more generally useful API though, it is necessary
to introduce a slightly higher level abstraction, which is to
be referred to as a "lockspace". This is to be provided by
a virLockSpacePtr object in src/util/virlockspace.{c,h}. The
core idea is that the lockspace keeps track of what files are
already open+locked. This means that when a 2nd thread comes
along and tries to acquire a lock, it doesn't end up opening
and closing a new FD. The lockspace just checks the current
list of held locks and immediately returns VIR_ERR_RESOURCE_BUSY.
NB, the API as it stands is designed on the basis that the
files being locked are not being otherwise opened and used
by the application code. One approach to using this API is to
acquire locks based on a hash of the filepath.
eg to lock /var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img the application
might do
virLockSpacePtr lockspace = virLockSpaceNew("/var/lib/libvirt/imagelocks");
lockname = md5sum("/var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img");
virLockSpaceAcquireLock(lockspace, lockname);
NB, in this example, the caller should ensure that the path
is canonicalized before calculating the checksum.
It is also possible to do locks directly on resources by
using a NULL lockspace directory and then using the file
path as the lock name eg
virLockSpacePtr lockspace = virLockSpaceNew(NULL);
virLockSpaceAcquireLock(lockspace, "/var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img");
This is only safe to do though if no other part of the process
will be opening the files. This will be the case when this
code is used inside the soon-to-be-reposted virlockd daemon

We are currently able to work only with non-translated SELinux
contexts, but we are using functions that work with translated
contexts throughout the code. This patch swaps all SELinux context
translation relative calls with their raw sisters to avoid parsing
problems.
The problems can be experienced with mcstrans for example. The
difference is that if you have translations enabled (yum install
mcstrans; service mcstrans start), fgetfilecon_raw() will get you
something like 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:s0', whereas
fgetfilecon() will return 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:SystemLow'
that we cannot parse.
I was trying to confirm that the _raw variants were here since the dawn of
time, but the only thing I see now is that it was imported together in
the upstream repo [1] from svn, so before 2008.
Thanks Laurent Bigonville for finding this out.

With the recent introduction of QMP capabilities probing, libvirt failed
to detect support for QXL graphics in QEMU 1.2 and newer. In addition to
fixing that, this patch also causes libvirt to detect QXL support for
qemu-kvm-0.13.0, which doesn't advertise it in -help output but mentions
it in device list. Since qemu-kvm-0.13.0 supported -spice, it looks like
not having qxl in -help was a bug.
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).
Currently the qemuCapsParseDeviceStr method has a bunch of open
coded string searches/comparisons to detect devices and their
properties. Soon this data will be obtained from QMP queries
instead of -device help output. Maintaining the list of device
and properties in two places is undesirable. Thus the existing
qemuCapsParseDeviceStr() method needs to be refactored to
separate the device types and properties from the actual
search code.
Thus the -device help output is now parsed to construct a
list of device names, and device properties. These are then
checked against a set of datatables to set the capability
flags

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.

Nothing uses the return value, and creating it requries otherwise

This cleanup is conceptually independent from the rest of the series

The "dump-guest-core' option is new option for the machine type
(-machine pc,dump-guest-core) that controls whether the guest memory
will be marked as dumpable.
While testing this, I've found out that the value for the '-M' options
is not parsed correctly when additional parameters are used. However,
when '-machine' is used for the same options, it gets parsed as
expected. That's why this patch also modifies the parsing and creating
of the command line, so both '-M' and '-machine' are recognized. In
QEMU's help there is only mention of the 'machine parameter now with
no sign of the older '-M'.
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).

In many places we store bitmap info in a chunk of data
(pointed to by a char *), and have redundant codes to
set/unset bits. This patch extends virBitmap, and convert
those codes to use virBitmap in subsequent patches.
This patch adds full support for EOI setting for domains. Because this
is CPU feature (flag), the model needs to be added even when it's not
specified. Fortunately this problem was already solved with kvmclock,
so this patch simply abuses that.
And due to the size of the patch (17 lines) I dared to include the tests.

The current qemu capabilities are stored in a virBitmapPtr
object, whose type is exposed to callers. We want to store
more data besides just the flags, so we need to move to a
struct type. This object will also need to be reference
counted, since we'll be maintaining a cache of data per
binary. This change introduces a 'qemuCapsPtr' virObject
class. Most of the change is just renaming types and

Technically speaking we should wait until we receive the QMP

thread runs the event loop looking for incoming replies and

from QEMU, without needing QEMU around
