This enables support for nested SVM using the regular CPU
model/features block. If the CPU model or features include
'svm', then the '-enable-nesting' flag will be added to the
QEMU command line. Latest out of tree patches for nested
'vmx', no longer require the '-enable-nesting' flag. They
instead just look at the cpu features. Several of the models
already include svm support, but QEMU was just masking out
the svm bit silently. So this will enable SVM on such
models

This is from a bug report and conversation on IRC where Soren reported that while a filter update is occurring on one or more VMs (due to a rule having been edited for example), a deadlock can occur when a VM referencing a filter is started.
The problem is caused by the two locking sequences of
qemu driver, qemu domain, filter # for the VM start operation
filter, qemu_driver, qemu_domain # for the filter update operation
that obviously don't lock in the same order. The problem is the 2nd lock sequence. Here the qemu_driver lock is being grabbed in qemu_driver:qemudVMFilterRebuild()
The following solution is based on the idea of trying to re-arrange the 2nd sequence of locks as follows:
qemu_driver, filter, qemu_driver, qemu_domain
and making the qemu driver recursively lockable so that a second lock can occur, this would then lead to the following net-locking sequence
qemu_driver, filter, qemu_domain
where the 2nd qemu_driver lock has been ( logically ) eliminated.
The 2nd part of the idea is that the sequence of locks (filter, qemu_domain) and (qemu_domain, filter) becomes interchangeable if all code paths where filter AND qemu_domain are locked have a preceding qemu_domain lock that basically blocks their concurrent execution
So, the following code paths exist towards qemu_driver:qemudVMFilterRebuild where we now want to put a qemu_driver lock in front of the filter lock.
-> nwfilterUndefine() [ locks the filter ]
-> virNWFilterTestUnassignDef()
-> virNWFilterTriggerVMFilterRebuild()
-> qemudVMFilterRebuild()
-> nwfilterDefine()
-> virNWFilterPoolAssignDef() [ locks the filter ]
-> virNWFilterTriggerVMFilterRebuild()
-> qemudVMFilterRebuild()
-> nwfilterDriverReload()
-> virNWFilterPoolLoadAllConfigs()
->virNWFilterPoolObjLoad()
-> virNWFilterPoolAssignDef() [ locks the filter ]
-> virNWFilterTriggerVMFilterRebuild()
-> qemudVMFilterRebuild()
-> nwfilterDriverStartup()
-> virNWFilterPoolLoadAllConfigs()
->virNWFilterPoolObjLoad()
-> virNWFilterPoolAssignDef() [ locks the filter ]
-> virNWFilterTriggerVMFilterRebuild()
-> qemudVMFilterRebuild()
Qemu is not the only driver using the nwfilter driver, but also the UML driver calls into it. Therefore qemuVMFilterRebuild() can be exchanged with umlVMFilterRebuild() along with the driver lock of qemu_driver that can now be a uml_driver. Further, since UML and Qemu domains can be running on the same machine, the triggering of a rebuild of the filter can touch both types of drivers and their domains.
In the patch below I am now extending each nwfilter callback driver with functions for locking and unlocking the (VM) driver (UML, QEMU) and introduce new functions for locking all registered callback drivers and unlocking them. Then I am distributing the lock-all-cbdrivers/unlock-all-cbdrivers call into the above call paths. The last shown callpath starting with nwfilterDriverStart() is problematic since it is initialize before the Qemu and UML drives are and thus a lock in the path would result in a NULL pointer attempted to be locked -- the call to virNWFilterTriggerVMFilterRebuild() is never called, so we never lock either the qemu_driver or the uml_driver in that path. Therefore, only the first 3 paths now receive calls to lock and unlock all callback drivers. Now that the locks are distributed where it matters I can remove the qemu_driver and uml_driver lock from qemudVMFilterRebuild() and umlVMFilterRebuild() and not requiring the recursive locks.
For now I want to put this out as an RFC patch. I have tested it by 'stretching' the critical section after the define/undefine functions each lock the filter so I can (easily) concurrently execute another VM operation (suspend,start). That code is in this patch and if you want you can de-activate it. It seems to work ok and operations are being blocked while the update is being done.
I still also want to verify the other assumption above that locking filter and qemu_domain always has a preceding qemu_driver lock.

Some features provided by the recently added CPU models were mentioned

According to API documentation virDomain{At,De}tachDevice calls are
supposed to only work on active guests for device hotplug. For anything
beyond that, their *Flags variants have to be used.
Despite the variant which was acked on libvirt mailing list
(https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-January/msg00385.html)
commit ed9c14a7ef (by Jim Fehlig)
introduced automagic behavior of these API calls for xen driver. Since
January, these calls always change persistent configuration of a guest
and if the guest is currently active, they also hot(un)plug the device.
That change didn't follow API documentation and also broke device
hot(un)plug for older xend implementations which do not support changing
persistent configuration of a guest and hot(un)plugging in one step.
This patch should not break anything for active guests. On the other
hand, changing inactive guests is not supported any more.
When a user calls to virDomain{Attach,Detach,Update}DeviceFlags() with
flags == VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_MODIFY_LIVE on an inactive guest running on
an old Xen hypervisor (such as RHEL-5) xend_internal driver reports:
Xend version does not support modifying persistent config
which is pretty confusing since no-one requested to modify persistent
config.
In this patch I am extending the rule instantiator to create the state

get iptables rules in both directions.
The xm internal xen driver only supports disk and network devices to be

virt-aa-helper also has to be adjusted because *FileIterate() is used for pci

filename', which rewrites the libvirt-<uuid>.files file anew. This new '-F'
option will append a rule to an existing libvirt-<uuid>.files if it exists,
otherwise it acts the same as '-f'.
load_profile() and reload_profile() have been adjusted to add an 'append'
argument, which when true will use '-F' instead of '-f' when executing
virt-aa-helper.
All existing calls to load_profile() and reload_profile() have been adjusted
to use the old behavior (ie append==false) except AppArmorSetSavedStateLabel()
where it made sense to use the new behavior.
This patch also adds tests for '-F'.

The current code will go into an infinite loop if the printf generated

Before this commit SessionIsActive was not used because ESX(i)
doesn't implement it. vCenter supports SessionIsActive, so use
it here, but keep the fall back mechanism for ESX(i) and GSX.
QueryVirtualDiskUuid is only available on an ESX(i) server. vCenter
returns an NotImplemented fault and a GSX server is missing the
VirtualDiskManager completely. Therefore only use QueryVirtualDiskUuid
with an ESX(i) server and fall back to path as storage volume key for
vCenter and GSX server.
VirtualDisks are .vmdk file based. Other files in a datastore
like .iso or .flp files don't have a UUID attached, fall back
to the path as key for them.
This patch adds support for ethernet interface type to OpenVZ domains
as stated in this previous message: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-

Instead of splitting the path part of a datastore path into
directory and file name, keep this in one piece. An example:
"[datastore] directory/file"
was split into this before:
datastoreName = "datastore"
directoryName = "directory"
fileName = "file"
Now it's split into this:
datastoreName = "datastore"
directoryName = "directory"
directoryAndFileName = "directory/file"
This simplifies code using esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath, because
directoryAndFileName is used more often than fileName. Also the
old approach expected the datastore path to reference an actual
file, but this isn't always correct, especially when listing
volumes. In that case esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath is used to parse
a path that references a directory. This fails for a vpx://
connection because the vCenter returns directory paths with a
trailing '/'. The new approach is robust against this and the
actual decision if the datastore path should reference a file or
a directory is up to the caller of esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath.
Update the tests accordingly.

uml_dir overrides user-mode-linux's default of ~/.uml. This is needed
for a couple of different reasons:
libvirt expects this to default to virGetUserDirectory(geteuid()) +
'/.uml'. However, user-mode-linux actually uses the HOME environment
variable to determine where to look for the uml sockets, but if running
libvirtd under sudo (which I routinely do during development), $HOME is
pointing at my user's homedir, while my euid is 0, so libvirt looks in
/root.
Also (and this was my actual motivation for this patch), if HOME isn't
set at all, user-mode-linux utterly fails. Looking at the code, it seems
it's meant to emit a warning, but alas, it doesn't for some reason.
If running libvirtd from upstart, HOME is not set, so any system using
upstart will need this change.

NodeDeviceCreateXML and NodeDeviceDestroy methods added for NPIV were

privateData != devMonPrivateData.
In case an optional object cannot be found the lookup function is

When reconnecting to existing VMs, we re-reserved only those PCI
addresses which were explicitly mentioned in domain XML. Since some
addresses are always reserved (e.g., 0:0:0 and 0:0:1), we need to handle
those too.
Also all this should only be done if device flag is supported by qemu.
In this patch I am extending and fixing the nwfilter module's reload support to stop all ongoing threads (for learning IP addresses of interfaces) and rebuild the filtering rules of all interfaces of all VMs when libvirt is started. Now libvirtd rebuilds the filters upon the SIGHUP signal and libvirtd restart.
About the patch: The nwfilter functions require a virConnectPtr. Therefore I am opening a connection in qemudStartup, which later on needs to be closed outside where the driver lock is held since otherwise it ends up in a deadlock due to virConnectClose() trying to lock the driver as well.
I have tested this now for a while with several machines running and needing the IP address learner thread(s). The rebuilding of the firewall rules seems to work fine following libvirtd restart or a SIGHUP. Also the termination of libvirtd worked fine.
floppy0.present defaults to true. Therefore, it needs to be
explicitly set to false when the XML config doesn't specify the
corresponding floppy device.
Also update tests accordingly.
I changed virStorage[Open|Close] to virVIOSDriver[Open|Close] so
the network driver can use it - since the network driver deals
with Open/Close in the same way.

When sniffing the network traffic, discard class D and E IP addresses when sniffing traffic. This was a reason why filters were not correctly rebuilt on VMs on the local 192.* network when libvirt was restarted and those VMs did not use a DHCP request to get its IP address.
While testing the SIGHUP handling and reloading of the nwfilter driver, I found that when the filters are rebuilt and mutlipe threads handled the individual interfaces, concurrently running multiple external bash scripts causes strange failures even though the executed ebtables commands are working on different tables for different interfaces. I cannot say for sure where the concurrency problems are caused, but introducing this lock definitely helps.

It seems some virtual network card ROMs are this old/buggy so let's add
--dhcp-no-override as a workaround for them. We don't use extra DHCP
options so this should be safe. The option was added in dnsmasq-2.41,
which becomes the minimum required version.
For parsing try to match by datastore mount path first, if that
fails fallback to /vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> parsing. This
also fixes problems with GSX on Windows. Because GSX on Windows
doesn't use /vmfs/volumes/ style file names.
For formatting use the datastore mount path too, instead of using
/vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> as fixed format.
We add --dhcp-lease-max=xxx argument when network->def->nranges > 0 but
we only allocate space for in the opposite case :-) I guess we are lucky
enough to miscount somewhere else so that we actually allocate more
space than we need since no-one has hit this bug so far.
Introduce esxVMX_Context containing functions pointers to
glue both parts together in a generic way.
Move the ESX specific part to esx_driver.c.
This is a step towards making the VMX code reusable in a
potential VMware Workstation and VMware Player driver.
The balloon device is automatically added to qemu guests if supported,
but it may be useful to desactivate it. The simplest to not change the
existing behaviour is to allow
<memballoon type="none"/>
as an extra option to desactivate it (it is automatically added if the
memballoon construct is missing for the domain).
The following simple patch just adds the extra option and does not
change the default behaviour but avoid creating a balloon device if
type="none" is used.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: add the extra type attribute value
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the extra enum
value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: if enum is NONE, don't activate the device,
i.e. don't pass the args to qemu/kvm

Fix the error checking to use the return value from brAddTap() instead
of checking the current errno value which might have been changed by
clean up calls inside of brAddTap().

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/622515 - When hot-unplugging CPUs,
libvirt failed to start a guest that had been pinned to CPUs that
were still online.
Tested on a dual-core laptop, where I also discovered that, per
http://www.cyberciti.biz/files/linux-kernel/Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt,
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online does not exist on systems where it
cannot be hot-unplugged.
* src/nodeinfo.c (linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate): Ignore CPUs that are
currently offline. Detect readdir failure.
(parse_socket): Move guts...
(get_cpu_value): ...to new function, shared with...
(cpu_online): New function.
device_del command is not synchronous for PCI devices, it merely asks
the guest to release the device and returns. If the host wants to use
that device before the guest actually releases it, we are in big
trouble. To avoid this, we already added a loop which waits up to 10
seconds until the device is actually released before we do anything else
with that device. But we only added this loop for managed PCI devices
before we try reattach them back to the host.
However, we need to wait even for non-managed devices. We don't reattach
them automatically, but we still want to prevent the host from using it.
This was revealed thanks to sVirt: when we relabel sysfs files
corresponding to the PCI device before the guest finished releasing the
device, qemu is no longer allowed to access those files and if it wants
(as a result of guest's request) to write anything to them, it just
exits, which kills the guest.
This is not a proper fix and needs some further work both on libvirt and
qemu side in the future.
virDiskNameToIndex has a list of disk name prefixes that it uses in the
process of finding the disk's index. This list is missing "ubd" which
is the disk prefix used for UML domains.

* src/util/network.c: change virSocketParseAddr to allow a null @addr

According to <xen-3.4.3/tools/python/xen/xm/create.py:158>
gopts.var('bootargs', val='NAME',
fn=set_value, default=None,
use="Arguments to pass to boot loader")
the "bootloader_args" parameter needs to be translated into "bootargs"
when using "virsh domxml-to-native xen-xm".
The reverse direction (domxml-from-native) is already okay.
This patch fixes domxml-to-native and adds two test files to catch this
problem.

src/phyp/phyp_driver.c:phypListDomainsGeneric was crashing due to a buffer
overflow if any line returned from virRun wasn't <=10 characters.
Since virStrToLong_i recognizes any non-numeric as a terminator (not
just NULL), there actually is no need to copy the number into a
separate string anyway, so this patch eliminates that copy, the fixed
length buffer, and therefore the potential to overflow.
This change also provided the oppurtunity to eliminate the character
counting loop, instead using the return from virStrToLong_i to point
past the end of the number, then simply skip the \n to get to the
next.

Patch version revamped by Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> of Jiri
Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com> original patch
When attaching a PCI device which doesn't explicitly set its PCI
address, libvirt allocates the address automatically. The problem is
that when checking which PCI address is unused, we only check for those
with slot number higher than the highest slot number ever used.
Thus attaching/detaching such device several times in a row (31 is the
theoretical limit, less then 30 tries are enough in practise) makes any
further device attachment fail. Furthermore, attaching a device with
predefined PCI address to 0:0:31 immediately forbids attachment of any
PCI device without explicit address.
This patch changes the logic so that we always check all PCI addresses
before we say there is no PCI address available.
Modifications from v1: revert back to remembering the last slot
reserved, but allow wraparound to not be limited by the end.
In this way, slots are still assigned in the same order as
before the patch, rather than filling in the gaps closest to
0 and risking making windows guests mad.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: fix pci reservation code to do a round-robbin
check of all available PCI splot availability before failing.
Don't rely on summary.url anymore, because its value is different

Don't fallback to lookup by UUID (actually lookup by absolute path)
in esxVI_LookupDatastoreByName when lookup by name fails. Add a
seperate function for this: esxVI_LookupDatastoreByAbsolutePath
