After discussion with DB we decided to rename the new iolimit
element as it creates the impression it would be there to
limit (i.e. throttle) I/O instead of specifying immutable
characteristics of a block device.
This is also backed by the fact that the term I/O Limits has
vanished from newer storage admin documentation.

Rename qemuDefaultScsiControllerModel to qemuCheckScsiControllerModel.
When scsi model is given explicitly in XML(model > 0) checking if the
underlying QEMU supports it or not first, raise an error on checking
failure.
When the model is not given(mode <= 0), return LSI by default, if
the QEMU doesn't support it, raise an error.
This converts the following public API datatypes to use the
virObject infrastructure:
virConnectPtr
virDomainPtr
virDomainSnapshotPtr
virInterfacePtr
virNetworkPtr
virNodeDevicePtr
virNWFilterPtr
virSecretPtr
virStreamPtr
virStorageVolPtr
virStoragePoolPtr
The code is significantly simplified, since the mutex in the
virConnectPtr object now only needs to be held when accessing
the per-connection virError object instance. All other operations
are completely lock free.

This patch enables the "none" USB controller for qemu guests and adds
valdiation on hot-plugged devices if the guest has USB disabled.
This patch also adds a set of tests to check parsing of domain XMLs that
use the "none" controller and some forbidden situations concerning it.
This patch enhances qemuxml2argvtest to deal with semantically incorrect
domain XMLs, that generate errors while parsing.
This patch cleans up macros that invoke the tests and changes boolean
flags to a bit array flag variable.

I came across a bug that the command line generated for passthrough
of the host parallel port /dev/parport0 by libvirt for QEMU is incorrect.
It currently produces:
-chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0
-device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0
The first parameter is "tty". It sould be "parport".
If I launch qemu with -chardev parport,... it works as expected.
I have already filled a bug report (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=823879 ), the topic was
already on the list some months ago:

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'.

When building on Fedora 17 (which uses gcc 4.7.0) with -O0 in CFLAGS,
three of the tests failed to compile.
cputest.c and qemuxml2argvtest.c had non-static structs defined
inside the macro that was being repeatedly invoked. Due to some so-far
unidentified change in gcc, the stack space used by variables defined
inside { } is not recovered/re-used when the block ends, so all these
structs have become additive (this is the same problem worked around
in commit cf57d345b). Fortunately, these two files could be fixed with
a single line addition of "static" to the struct definition in the
macro.
virnettlscontexttest.c was a bit different, though. The problem structs
in the do/while loop of macros had non-constant initializers, so it
took a bit more work and piecemeal initialization instead of member
initialization to get things to be happy.
In an ideal world, none of these changes should be necessary, but not
knowing how long it will be until the gcc regressions are fixed, and
since the code is just as correct after this patch as before, it makes
sense to fix libvirt's build for -O0 while also reporting the gcc
problem.
Return statements with parameter enclosed in parentheses were modified
and parentheses were removed. The whole change was scripted, here is how:
List of files was obtained using this command:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$'
Found files were modified with this command:
sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Then checked for nonsense.
The whole command looks like this:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$' | xargs sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
This is similiar with physical world, one will be surprised if the
box starts with medium exists while the tray is open.
New tests are added, tests disk-{cdrom,floppy}-tray are for the qemu
supports "-device" flag, and disk-{cdrom,floppy}-no-device-cap are
for old qemu, i.e. which doesn't support "-device" flag.
One of the recent commits introduced support for
spice agent-mouse. However, test for this feature
require some tweaking: pass QEMU_CAPS_CHARDEV_SPICEVMC |
QEMU_CAPS_NODEFCONFIG and add "-vga cirrus".
This patch makes sure that each network device ("interface") of
type='hostdev' appears on both the hostdevs list and the nets list of
the virDomainDef, and it modifies the qemu driver startup code so that
these devices will be presented to qemu on the commandline as hostdevs
rather than as network devices.
It does not add support for hotplug of these type of devices, or code
to honor the <mac address> or <virtualport> given in the config (both
of those will be done in separate patches).
Once each device is placed on both lists, much of what this patch does
is modify places in the code that traverse all the device lists so
that these hybrid devices are only acted on once - either along with
the other hostdevs, or along with the other network interfaces. (In
many cases, only one of the lists is traversed / a specific operation
is performed on only one type of device. In those instances, the code
can remain unchanged.)
There is one special case - when building the commandline, interfaces
are allowed to proceed all the way through
networkAllocateActualDevice() before deciding to skip the rest of
netdev-specific processing - this is so that (once we have support for
networks with pools of hostdev devices) we can get the actual device
allocated, then rely on the loop processing all hostdevs to generate
the correct commandline.
(NB: <interface type='hostdev'> is only supported for PCI network
devices that are SR-IOV Virtual Functions (VF). Standard PCI[e] and
USB devices, and even the Physical Functions (PF) of SR-IOV devices
can only be assigned to a guest using the more basic <hostdev> device
entry. This limitation is mostly due to the fact that non-SR-IOV
ethernet devices tend to lose mac address configuration whenever the
card is reset, which happens when a card is assigned to a guest;
SR-IOV VFs fortunately don't suffer the same problem.)
Commit b170eb99 introduced a bug: domains that had an explicit
<seclabel type='none'/> when started would not be reparsed if
libvirtd restarted. It turns out that our testsuite was not
exercising this because it never tried anything but inactive
parsing. Additionally, the live XML for such a domain failed
to re-validate. Applying just the tests/ portion of this patch
will expose the bugs that are fixed by the other two files.

When support for the rombar option was added, it was only added for
PCI passthrough devices, configured with <hostdev>. The same option is
available for any network device that is attached to the guest's PCI
bus. This patch allows setting rombar for any PCI network device type.
After adding cases to test this to qemuxml2argv-hostdev-pci-rombar.*,
I decided to rename those files (to qemuxml2argv-pci-rom.*) to more
accurately reflect the additional tests, and also noticed that up to
now we've only been performing a domainschematest for that case, so I
added the "pci-rom" test to both qemuxml2argv and qemuxml2xml (and in
the process found some bugs whose fixes I squashed into previous
commits of this series).
QEMU supports a bunch of CPUID features that are tied to the kvm CPUID
nodes rather than the processor's. They are "kvmclock",
"kvm_nopiodelay", "kvm_mmu", "kvm_asyncpf". These are not known to
libvirt and their CPUID leaf might move if (for example) the Hyper-V
extensions are enabled. Hence their handling would anyway require some
special-casing.
However, among these the most useful is kvmclock; an additional
"property" of this feature is that a <timer> element is a better model
than a CPUID feature. Although, creating part of the -cpu command-line
from something other than the <cpu> XML element introduces some
ugliness.

There was missing capability for blkiotune and thus specifying these

reporting qemu error instead of the standard libvirt one. The support

This introduces new attribute wrpolicy with only supported
value as immediate. This will be an optional
attribute with no defaults. This helps specify whether
to skip the host page cache.
When wrpolicy is specified, meaning when wrpolicy=immediate
a writeback is explicitly initiated for the dirty pages in
the host page cache as part of the guest file write operation.
Usage:
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
<driver type='path' wrpolicy='immediate'/>
<source dir='/export/to/guest'/>
<target dir='mount_tag'/>
</filesystem>
Currently this only works with type='mount' for the QEMU/KVM driver.

In case a hypervisor doesn't support the exact CPU model requested by a
domain XML, we automatically fallback to a closest CPU model the
hypervisor supports (and make sure we add/remove any additional features
if needed). This patch adds 'fallback' attribute to model element, which
can be used to disable this automatic fallback.
We support <interface> of type "mcast", "server", and "client",
but the RNG schema for them are missed. Attribute "address" is
optional for "server" type. And these 3 types support
<mac address='MAC'/>, too.
Add four tests of the XML -> argv handling for the PPC64 pseries machine.
The first is just a basic test of a bare bones machine.
The three others test various aspects of the spapr-vio address handling.
It seems that currently we can't include network devices, doing so leads
to a segfault because the network driverState is not initialised. Working
around that leads us to the problem that the 'default' network doesn't
exist. So for now just leave network devices out.

We can't call qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo() from test code, because it
expects to be able to call the emulator, and for testing we have fake
emulators that can't be executed. For that reason qemuxml2argvtest.c
doesn't call qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses(), instead it open codes its
own version.
That means we can't call qemuDomainAssignAddresses() from the test code,
instead we need to manually call qemuDomainAssignSpaprVioAddresses().
Also add logic to cope with qemuDomainAssignSpaprVioAddresses() failing,
so that we can write a test that checks for a known failure in there.

The new introduced optional attribute "copy_on_read</code> controls
whether to copy read backing file into the image file. The value can
be either "on" or "off". Copy-on-read avoids accessing the same backing
file sectors repeatedly and is useful when the backing file is over a
slow network. By default copy-on-read is off.
In the past, generic SCSI commands issued from a guest to a virtio
disk were always passed through to the underlying disk by qemu, and
the kernel would also pass them on.
As a result of CVE-2011-4127 (see:
http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2011/q4/536), qemu now honors its
scsi=on|off device option for virtio-blk-pci (which enables/disables
passthrough of generic SCSI commands), and the kernel will only allow
the commands for physical devices (not for partitions or logical
volumes). The default behavior of qemu is still to allow sending
generic SCSI commands to physical disks that are presented to a guest
as virtio-blk-pci devices, but libvirt prefers to disable those
commands in the standard virtio block devices, enabling it only when
specifically requested (hopefully indicating that the requester
understands what they're asking for). For this purpose, a new libvirt
disk device type (device='lun') has been created.
device='lun' is identical to the default device='disk', except that:
1) It is only allowed if bus='virtio', type='block', and the qemu
version is "new enough" to support it ("new enough" == qemu 0.11 or
better), otherwise the domain will fail to start and a
CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED error will be logged).
2) The option "scsi=on" will be added to the -device arg to allow
SG_IO commands (if device !='lun', "scsi=off" will be added to the
-device arg so that SG_IO commands are specifically forbidden).
Guests which continue to use disk device='disk' (the default) will no
longer be able to use SG_IO commands on the disk; those that have
their disk device changed to device='lun' will still be able to use SG_IO
commands.
*docs/formatdomain.html.in - document the new device attribute value.
*docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng - allow it in the RNG
*tests/* - update the args of several existing tests to add scsi=off, and
add one new test that will test scsi=on.

*src/qemu/qemu_(command|driver|hotplug).c - treat

Note that no support for this new device value was added to any
hypervisor drivers other than qemu, because it's unclear what it might
mean (if anything) to those drivers.
Implement the parsing and formatting of the XML addition of
the previous commit. The new XML doesn't affect qemu command
line, so we can now test round-trip XML->memory->XML handling.
I chose to reuse the existing structure, even though per-device
override doesn't use all of those fields, rather than create a
new structure, in order to reuse more code.

The RNG for <seclabel> was too strict - if it was present, then it
had to have sub-elements, even if those didn't make sense for the
given attributes. Also, we didn't have any tests of <seclabel>
parsing or XML output.
In this patch, I added more parsing tests than output tests (since
the output populates and/or reorders fields not present in certain
inputs). Making the RNG reliable is a precursor to using <seclabel>
variants in more places in the XML in later patches.

Currently non-x86 guests must have <acpi/> defined in <features> to
prevent libvirt from running qemu with -no-acpi. Although it works, it
is a hack.
Instead add a capability flag which indicates whether qemu understands
the -no-acpi option. Use it to control whether libvirt emits -no-acpi.
Current versions of qemu always display -no-acpi in their help output,
so this patch has no effect. However the development version of qemu
has been modified such that -no-acpi is only displayed when it is
actually supported.
