Consider the following XML:
<memoryBacking>
<hugepages>
<page size='2048' unit='KiB' nodeset='1'/>
</hugepages>
<source type='file'/>
<access mode='shared'/>
</memoryBacking>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>
<cell id='1' cpus='4-7' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>
</numa>
The following cmd line is generated:
-object
memory-backend-file,id=ram-node0,mem-path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/ram,
share=yes,size=524288000 -numa node,nodeid=0,cpus=0-3,memdev=ram-node0
-object
memory-backend-file,id=ram-node1,mem-path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/ram,
share=yes,size=524288000 -numa node,nodeid=1,cpus=4-7,memdev=ram-node1
This is obviously wrong as for node 1 hugepages should have been
used. The hugepages configuration is more specific than <source
type='file'/>.

While checking for ABI stability, drivers might pose additional
checks that are not valid for general case. For instance, qemu
driver might check some memory backing attributes because of how
qemu works. But those attributes may work well in other drivers.

Add kernel_irqchip=split/on to the QEMU command line
and a capability that looks for it in query-command-line-options
output. For the 'split' option, use a version check
since it cannot be reasonably probed.

This patch maps /domain/cpu/cache element into -cpu parameters:
- <cache mode='passthrough'/> is translated to host-cache-info=on
- <cache level='3' mode='emulate'/> is transformed into l3-cache=on
- <cache mode='disable'/> is turned in host-cache-info=off,l3-cache=off
Any other <cache> element is forbidden.
The tricky part is detecting whether QEMU supports the CPU properties.
The 'host-cache-info' property is introduced in v2.4.0-1389-ge265e3e480,
earlier QEMU releases enabled host-cache-info by default and had no way
to disable it. If the property is present, it defaults to 'off' for any
QEMU until at least 2.9.0.
The 'l3-cache' property was introduced later by v2.7.0-200-g14c985cffa.
Earlier versions worked as if l3-cache=off was passed. For any QEMU
until at least 2.9.0 l3-cache is 'off' by default.
QEMU 2.9.0 was the first release which supports probing both properties
by running device-list-properties with typename=host-x86_64-cpu. Older
QEMU releases did not support device-list-properties command for CPU
devices. Thus we can't really rely on probing them and we can just use
query-cpu-model-expansion QMP command as a witness.
Because the cache property probing is only reliable for QEMU >= 2.9.0
when both are already supported for quite a few releases, we let QEMU
report an error if a specific cache mode is explicitly requested. The
other mode (or both if a user requested CPU cache to be disabled) is
explicitly turned off for QEMU >= 2.9.0 to avoid any surprises in case
the QEMU defaults change. Any older QEMU already turns them off so not
doing so explicitly does not make any harm.

Now that the NO_ACPI and NO_HPET capabilities are set
automatically by virQEMUCapsInitQMPBasicArch() if
appropriate for the architecture, they shouldn't be
used manually to avoid masking bugs.
The capabilities used in test cases should match those used
during normal operation for the tests to make any sense.
This results in the generated command line for a few test
cases (most notably non-x86 test cases that were wrongly
assuming they could use -no-acpi) changing.
QEMU allows for TSC frequency to be explicitly set to enable migration
with invtsc (migration fails if the destination QEMU cannot set the
exact same frequency used when starting the domain on the source host).
Libvirt already supports setting the TSC frequency in the XML using
<clock>
<timer name='tsc' frequency='1234567890'/>
</clock>
which will be transformed into
-cpu Model,tsc-frequency=1234567890
QEMU command line.

We want pcie-root-ports to be used when available in QEMU,
but at the same time we need to ensure that hosts running
older QEMU releases keep working and that the user can
override the default at any time.
Add a comment for the original pcie-root-port test cases
to make it clear how these new test cases are different.
For NVDIMM devices it is optionally possible to specify the size

So, majority of the code is just ready as-is. Well, with one
slight change: differentiate between dimm and nvdimm in places
like device alias generation, generating the command line and so
on.
Speaking of the command line, we also need to append 'nvdimm=on'
to the '-machine' argument so that the nvdimm feature is
advertised in the ACPI tables properly.

One of the main reasons for introducing host-model CPU definition in a
domain capabilities XML was the inability to express disabled features
in a host capabilities XML. That is, when a host CPU is, e.g., Haswell
without x2apic support, host capabilities XML will have to report it as
Westmere + a bunch of additional features., but we really want to use
Haswell - x2apic when creating a host-model CPU.
Unfortunately, I somehow forgot to do the last step and the code would
just copy the CPU definition found in the host capabilities XML. This
changed recently for new QEMU versions which allow us to query host CPU,
but any slightly older QEMU will not benefit from any change I did. This
patch makes sure the right CPU model is filled in the domain
capabilities even with old QEMU.

This is a very historic artefact. Back in the old days of
830ba76c3e when we had macros to add arguments onto qemu command
line (!) we thought it was a good idea to let qemu write out the
PID file. So we passed -pidfile $stateDir/$domName onto the
command line. Thus, in order for tests to work we needed stable
stateDir in the qemu driver. Unfortunately, after 16efa11aa6
where stateDir is mkdtemp()-d, this approach lead to a leak of
temp dir.

Querying "host" CPU model expansion only makes sense for KVM. QEMU 2.9.0
introduces a new "max" CPU model which can be used to ask QEMU what the
best CPU it can provide to a TCG domain is.

While reviewing a patch from Andrea that modified this test case, I
realized that although it was "properly failing" (it's a negative
test), that it was failing for the wrong reason (the MULTIFUNCTION cap
wasn't set in the test case, so it was saying that multifunction=on
wasn't supported by the QEMU binary; instead it should have been
complaining that it had run out of PCI slots of the appropriate type
and couldn't automatically add any more).
This improper failure had started when I added the patch to
automatically aggregate pcie-root-ports onto multiple functions of
each pcie-root slot, but I hadn't noticed it because the test still
failed.
This patch corrects the test case to 1) set the MULTIFUNCTION flag in
the caps, and 2) attempt to add 241 pcie-root-ports to a domain. Since
there are 30 slots available on a pcie-root (slot 0 is reserved, and
slot 31 is used by the integrated SATA controller), and a
pcie-root-port can only be placed on a function of a slot on
pcie-root, the maximum number of pcie-root-ports in any domain is 240.
virQEMUCapsHasPCIMultiBus() performs a version check on
the QEMU binary to figure out whether multiple buses are
supported, so to get the correct aliases assigned when
dealing with pSeries guests we need to spoof the version
accordingly in the test suite.
Due to the extra architecture-specific logic, it's already
necessary for users to call virQEMUCapsHasPCIMultiBus(),
so the capability itself is just a pointless distraction.
Now that QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_PCI_BRIDGE is no longer checked
unless a pci-bridge is really part of the configuration,
and most uses of the legacy PCI controller combo have been
dropped from tests that use PCIe machine types, we can
drop the corresponding capabilities from a lot of test
cases.

Commit 815d98a started auto-adding one hub if there are more USB devices
than available USB ports.
This was a strange choice, since there might be even more devices.
Before USB address allocation was implemented in libvirt, QEMU
automatically added a new USB hub if the old one was full.
Adjust the logic to try adding as many hubs as will be needed
to plug in all the specified devices.

Set the VIR_PCI_CONNECT_AGGREGATE_SLOT flag for pcie-root-ports so
that they will be assigned to all the functions on a slot.
Some qemu test case outputs had to be adjusted due to the
pcie-root-ports now being put on multiple functions.
If there are multiple devices assigned to the different functions of a
single PCI slot, they will not work properly if the device at function
0 doesn't have its "multi" attribute turned on, so it makes sense for
libvirt to turn it on during PCI address assignment. Setting multi
then assures that the new setting is stored in the config (so it will
be used next time the domain is started), preventing any potential
problems in the case that a future change in the configuration
eliminates the devices on all non-0 functions (multi will still be set
for function 0 even though it is the only function in use on the slot,
which has no useful purpose, but also doesn't cause any problems).
(NB: If we were to instead just decide on the setting for
multifunction at runtime, a later removal of the non-0 functions of a
slot would result in a silent change in the guest ABI for the
remaining device on function 0 (although it may seem like an
inconsequential guest ABI change, it *is* a guest ABI change to turn
off the multi bit).)
virtio-pci is the way forward for aarch64 guests: it's faster
and less alien to people coming from other architectures.
Now that guest support is finally getting there (Fedora 24,
CentOS 7.3, Ubuntu 16.04 and Debian testing all support
virtio-pci out of the box), we'd like to start using it by
default instead of virtio-mmio.
Users and applications can already opt-in by explicitly using
<address type='pci'/>
inside the relevant elements, but that's kind of cumbersome and
requires all users and management applications to adapt, which
we'd really like to avoid.
What we can do instead is use virtio-mmio only if the guest
already has at least one virtio-mmio device, and use virtio-pci
in all other situations.
That means existing virtio-mmio guests will keep using the old
addressing scheme, and new guests will automatically be created
using virtio-pci instead. Users can still override the default
in either direction.
Existing tests such as aarch64-aavmf-virtio-mmio and
aarch64-virtio-pci-default already cover all possible
scenarios, so no additions to the test suites are necessary.
Add a test case for when the QEMU_CAPS_NO_KVM_PIT capability is set.

By a mistake, for the VIR_DOMAIN_TIMER_TICKPOLICY_DELAY qemu
command line creation, 'discard' was used instead of 'delay'
in commit id '1569fa14'.
Test "kvm-pit-delay" is fixed accordingly to show the correct
option being generated.
Remove the (now) redundant kvm-pit-device tests. As it turns
out there is no need to specify both QEMU_CAPS_NO_KVM_PIT and
QEMU_CAPS_KVM_PIT_TICK_POLICY since they are mutually exclusive
and "kvm-pit-device" becomes just the same as "kvm-pit-delay".
