QEMU introduced "discard" option for drive since commit a9384aff53,
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.

This patch refactors various places to allow removing of the
defaultConsoleTargetType callback from the virCaps structure.
A new console character device target type is introduced -
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_NONE - to mark that no type was
specified in the XML. This type is at the end converted to the standard
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_SERIAL. Other types that are
different from this default have to be processed separately in the
device post parse callback.
Use the virDomainXMLConf structure to hold this data and tweak the code
to avoid semantic change.
Without configuration the KVM mac prefix is used by default. I chose it
as it's in the privately administered segment so it should be usable for
any purposes.
This patch removes the emulatorRequired field and associated
infrastructure from the virCaps object. Instead the driver specific
callbacks are used as this field isn't enforced by all drivers.
This patch implements the appropriate callbacks in the qemu and lxc
driver and moves to check to that location.
Currently, -machine option is used only when dump-guest-core is set.
To use options defined in machine option for newer version of QEMU,
it needs to use -machine xxx, and to be compatible with older version
-M, this patch adds QEMU_CAPS_MACHINE_OPT capability for newer
version which supports -machine option.

This reverts commit 5ac846e42e.
After further discussions with Alon Levy, I learned the following:
The use of '-vga qxl' vs. '-device qxl-vga' is completely orthogonal
to whether ram_size can be exposed. Downstream distros are interested
in backporting support for multi-head qxl, but this can be done in
one of two ways:
1. Support one head per PCI device. If you do this, then it makes
sense to have full control over the PCI address of each device. For
full control, you need '-device qxl-vga' instead of '-vga qxl'.
2. Support multiple heads through a single PCI device. If you do
this, then you need to allocate more RAM to that PCI device (enough
ram to cover the multiple screens). Here, the device is hard-coded
to 0:0:2.0, both in qemu and libvirt code.
Apparently, backporting ram_size changes to allow multiple heads in
a single device is much easier than backporting multiple device
support. Furthermore, the presence or absence of qxl-vga.surfaces
is no different than the presence or absence of qxl-vga.ram_size;
both properties can be applied regardless of whether you have one
PCI device (-vga qxl) or multiple (-device qxl-vga), so this property
is NOT a good witness of whether '-device qxl-vga' support has been
backported.
Downstream RHEL will NOT be using this patch; and worse, leaving this
patch in risks doing the wrong thing if compiling upstream libvirt
on RHEL, so the best course of action is to revert it. That means
that libvirt will go back to only using '-device qxl-vga' for qemu
>= 1.2, but this is just fine because we know of no distros that plan
on backporting multiple PCI address support to any older version of
qemu. Meanwhile, downstream can still use ram_size to pack multiple
heads through a single PCI device.
This does nothing more than adding the new device and capability.
The device is present since QEMU 1.2.0.

The "dtb" option sets the filename for the device tree.

Multi-head QXL support is so useful that distros have started to
backport it to qemu earlier than 1.2. After discussion with
Alon Levy, we determined that the existence of the qxl-vga.surfaces
property is a reliable indicator of whether '-device qxl-vga' works,
or whether we have to stick to the older '-vga qxl'. I'm leaving
in the existing check for QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIDEO_PRIMARY tied to
qemu 1.2 and newer (in case qemu is built without qxl support),
but for those distros that backport qxl, this additional capability
check will allow the correct command line for both RHEL 6.3 (which
lacks the feature) and RHEL 6.4 (where qemu still claims to be
version 0.12.2.x, but has backported multi-head qxl).

This commit adds the QEMU driver support for CCW addresses. The
current QEMU only allows virtio devices to be attached to the
CCW bus. We named the new capability indicating that support
QEMU_CAPS_VIRTIO_CCW accordingly.
The fact that CCW devices can only be assigned to domains with a
machine type of s390-ccw-virtio requires a few extra checks for
machine type in qemu_command.c on top of querying
QEMU_CAPS_VIRTIO_{CCW|S390}.
The majority of the new functions deals with CCW address generation
and management.

This patch adds a new capability bit QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_RNG_EGD and code
to support the egd backend for the VirtIO RNG device.
The device is added by 3 qemu command line options:
-chardev socket,id=charrng0,host=1.2.3.4,port=1234 (communication
backend)
-object rng-egd,chardev=charrng0,id=rng0 (RNG protocol client)
-device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 (the RNG device)
This patch implements support for the virtio-rng-pci device and the
rng-random backend in qemu.
Two capabilities bits are added to track support for those:
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIRTIO_RNG - for the device support and
QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_RNG_RANDOM - for the backend support.
qemu is invoked with these additional parameters if the device is
enabled:
-object rng-random,id=rng0,filename=/test/phile (to add the backend)
-device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 (to add the device)
The conversion to qemuCaps dropped the ability with qemu{,-kvm} 1.2 and
newer to set the lost tick policy for the PIT. While the
-no-kvm-pit-reinjection option is depreacated, it is still supported at
least through 1.4, it is better to not lose the functionality.
Setting the uid/gid of the child process was the only thing done by
the hook function in this case, and that can now be done more simply
with virCommandSetUID/GID.
To avoid confusion between 'virCapsPtr' and 'qemuCapsPtr'
do some renaming of various fucntions/variables. All
instances of 'qemuCapsPtr' are renamed to 'qemuCaps'. To
avoid that clashing with the 'qemuCaps' typedef though,
rename the latter to virQEMUCaps.

qemu: Fix QMP Capabability Probing Failure
which attempted to make sure the QEMU process used for probing
ran as the right user id, caused serious performance regression
and unreliability in probing. The -daemonize switch in QEMU
guarantees that the monitor socket is present before the parent
process exits. This means libvirtd is guaranteed to be able to
connect immediately. By switching from -daemonize to the
virCommandDaemonize API libvirtd was no longer synchronized with
QEMU's startup process. The result was that the QEMU monitor
failed to open and went into its 200ms sleep loop. This happened
for all 25 binaries resulting in 5 seconds worth of sleeping
at libvirtd startup. In addition sometimes when libvirt connected,
QEMU would be partially initialized and crash causing total
failure to probe that binary.
This commit reverts the previous change, ensuring we do use the
-daemonize flag to QEMU. Startup delay is cut from 7 seconds
to 2 seconds on my machine, which is on a par with what it was
prior to the capabilities rewrite.
To deal with the fact that QEMU needs to be able to create the
pidfile, we switch pidfile location fron runDir to libDir, which
QEMU is guaranteed to be able to write to.

Since 4c993d8a we failed to set this important capability, which
allows starting a domain with QXL video card. We set DEVICE_QXL
capability bit instead, which is not necessary wrong. Anyway, if
qemu supports the new '-device qxl' it supports older '-vga qxl'
as well. The latter is used for the primary (the first) qxl video
card, the former for other video cards.
Despite our great effort we still parsed qemu log output.
We wouldn't notice unless upcoming qemu 1.4 changed the
format of the logs slightly. Anyway, now we should gather
all interesting knobs like pty paths from monitor. Moreover,
since for historical reasons the first console can be just
an alias to the first serial port, we need to check this and
copy the pty path if that's the case to the first console.
Since we switched to QMP probing, the object types are spelled out
explicitly, i.e. virtio-net-pci. This has effectively disabled
the capability detection of s390 virtio devices. The trivial fix
is to add the s390 virtio types explicitly to qemuCapsObjectProps.

QMP Capability probing will fail if QEMU cannot bind to the
QMP monitor socket in the qemu_driver->libDir directory.
That's because the child process is stripped of all
capabilities and this directory is chown'ed to the configured
QEMU user/group (normally qemu:qemu) by the QEMU driver.
To prevent this from happening, the driver startup will now pass
the QEMU uid and gid down to the capability probing code.
All capability probing invocations of QEMU will be run with
the configured QEMU uid instead of libvirtd's.
Furter, the pid file handling is moved to libvirt, as QEMU
cannot write to the qemu_driver->runDir (root:root). This also

For S390, the default console target type cannot be of type 'serial'.
It is necessary to at least interpret the 'arch' attribute
value of the os/type element to produce the correct default type.
Therefore we need to extend the signature of defaultConsoleTargetType
to account for architecture. As a consequence all the drivers
supporting this capability function must be updated.
Despite the amount of changed files, the only change in behavior is
that for S390 the default console target type will be 'virtio'.
N.B.: A more future-proof approach could be to to use hypervisor
specific capabilities to determine the best possible console type.
For instance one could add an opaque private data pointer to the
virCaps structure (in case of QEMU to hold capsCache) which could
then be passed to the defaultConsoleTargetType callback to determine
the console target type.
Seems to be however a bit overengineered for the use case...

When there is no 'qemu-kvm' binary and the emulator used for a machine
is, for example, 'qemu-system-x86_64' that, by default, runs without
kvm enabled, libvirt still supplies '-no-kvm' option to this process,
even though it does not recognize such option (making the start of a
domain fail in that case).
This patch fixes building a command-line for QEMU machines without KVM
acceleration and is based on following assumptions:
- QEMU_CAPS_KVM flag means that QEMU is running KVM accelerated
machines by default (without explicitly requesting that using a
command-line option). It is the closest to the truth according to
the code with the only exception being the comment next to the
flag, so it's fixed in this patch as well.
- QEMU_CAPS_ENABLE_KVM flag means that QEMU is, by default, running
without KVM acceleration and in case we need KVM acceleration it
needs to be explicitly instructed to do so. This is partially
true for the past (this option essentially means that QEMU
recognizes the '-enable-kvm' option, even though it's almost the
same).
Upstream qemu 1.3 is adding two new monitor commands, 'drive-mirror'
and 'block-job-complete'[1], which can drive live block copy and
storage migration. [Additionally, RHEL 6.3 had backported an earlier
version of most of the same functionality, but under the names
'__com.redhat_drive-mirror' and '__com.redhat_drive-reopen' and with
slightly different JSON arguments, and has been using patches similar
to these upstream patches for several months now.]
The libvirt API virDomainBlockRebase as already committed for 0.9.12
is flexible enough to expose the basics of block copy, but some
additional features in the 'drive-mirror' qemu command, such as
setting error policy, setting granularity, or using a persistent
bitmap, may later require a new libvirt API virDomainBlockCopy. I
will wait to add that API until we know more about what qemu 1.3
will finally provide.
This patch caters only to the upstream qemu 1.3 interface, although
I have proven that the changes for RHEL 6.3 can be isolated to
just qemu_monitor_json.c, and the rest of this series will
gracefully handle either interface once the JSON differences are
papered over in a downstream patch.
For consistency with other block job commands, libvirt must handle
the bandwidth argument as MiB/sec from the user, even though qemu
exposes the speed argument as bytes/sec; then again, qemu rounds
up to cluster size internally, so using MiB hides the worst effects
of that rounding if you pass small numbers.

qemu 1.3 will be adding a 'block-commit' monitor command, per
qemu.git commit ed61fc1. It matches nicely to the libvirt API
virDomainBlockCommit.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h (QEMU_CAPS_BLOCK_COMMIT): New bit.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsProbeQMPCommands): Set it.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (qemuMonitorBlockCommit): New prototype.

(qemuMonitorJSONGetBlockJobInfoOne): Handle new event type.
If we can't probe the architecture from QMP we parse the architecture
from the qemu binaries name. This results in the architecture being i386
instead of i686 which then results in QEMU_CAPS_PCI_MULTIBUS being unset
which gives a broken qemu command line.
This probably didn't show up earlier since most of the time there's also
a /usr/bin/qemu around which results in i686 capabilities.
When libvirt cannot find a suitable CPU model for host CPU (easily
reproducible by running libvirt in a guest), it would not provide CPU
topology in capabilities XML either. Even though CPU topology is known
and can be queried by virNodeGetInfo. With this patch, CPU topology will
always be provided in capabilities XML regardless on the presence of CPU
model.
The machine in the last output line of <qemu-binary> -M ?
was always reported as default machine even if this wasn't the
actual default. Trivial fix.

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.
Introduced in commit 0caccb58.

Since libvirt switched to QMP capabilities probing recently, it starts
QEMU process used for this probing with -daemonize, which means
virCommandAbort can no longer reach these processes. As a result of
that, restarting libvirtd will leave several new QEMU processes behind.
Let's use QEMU's -pidfile and use it to kill the process when QMP caps
probing is done.
Start a QEMU process using
$QEMU -S -no-user-config -nodefaults \
-nographic -M none -qmp unix:/some/path,server,nowait
and talk QMP over stdio to discover what capabilities the
binary supports. This works for QEMU 1.2.0 or later and
for older QEMU automatically fallback to the old approach
of parsing -help and related command line args.

The help output for QEMU 1.2.0 changed 'pci-assign' to 'kvm-pci-assign'.
Since the new capabilities code does exact device name matching
instead of substring matching, this caused the capabilities to go
missing.

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

Recently, there have been some improvements made to qemu so it
supports seamless migration or something very close to it.
However, it requires libvirt interaction. Once qemu is migrated,
the SPICE server needs to send its internal state to the destination.
Once it's done, it fires SPICE_MIGRATE_COMPLETED event and this
fact is advertised in 'query-spice' output as well.
We must not kill qemu until SPICE server finishes the transfer.

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 series adds support to run QEMU with seccomp sandbox enabled. It can be
configured in qemu.conf to on, off, or the QEMU default, which is off in 1.2.

This assumes ide-drive.wwn, ide-hd.wwn, ide-cd.wwn were supported

and QEMU_CAPS_SCSI_DISK_WWN) are introduced.
Introduce a qemuCapsNewForBinary() API which creates a new

The previous check for YAJL would have many undesirable
consequences, the most important being that it caused the

no user visible feedback as to what is wrong in this respect,
merely a syslog message. The empty capabilities causes
libvirtd to then throw away all guest XML configs that are
stored.

Even though qemu-kvm binaries can be used in TCG mode, libvirt would
only detect them if /dev/kvm was available. Thus, one would need to make
a /usr/bin/qemu symlink to be able to use TCG mode with qemu-kvm in an
environment without KVM support.
And even though QEMU is able to make use of KVM, libvirt would not
advertise KVM support unless there was a qemu-kvm symlink available.
This patch fixes both issues.

Commit 6e769eba made it a runtime error if libvirt was compiled

when trying to use the built executable.

QEMU binary is called several times when we probe different kinds of
capabilities the binary supports. This patch introduces new common
helper so that all probes use a consistent way of invoking qemu.
A "ide-drive" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,
if there is ",media=cdrom" specified for the backend, it's
a CD-ROM, otherwise it's a hard disk.
Upstream qemu splitted "ide-drive" into "ide-hd" and "ide-cd"
since commit 1f56e32, and ",media=cdrom" is not required for
ide-cd anymore. "ide-drive" is still supported for backwards
compatibility, but no doubt we should go foward.
A "scsi-disk" device can be either a hard disk or a CD-ROM,
if there is ",media=cdrom" specified for the backend, it's
a CD-ROM, otherwise it's a hard disk.
But upstream qemu splitted "scsi-disk" into "scsi-hd" and
"scsi-cd" since commit b443ae, and ",media=cdrom" is not
required for scsi-cd anymore. "scsi-disk" is still supported
for backwards compatibility, but no doubt we should go
foward.
RHEL 6.2 was released with an early version of block jobs, which only
worked on the qed file format, where the commands were spelled with
underscore (contrary to QMP style), and where 'block_job_cancel' was
synchronous and did not trigger an event.
The upcoming qemu 1.1 release has fixed these short-comings [1][2]:
the commands now work on multiple file types, are spelled with dash,
and 'block-job-cancel' is asynchronous and emits an event upon conclusion.

This patch recognizes the new spellings, and fixes virDomainBlockRebase
to give a graceful error when talking to a too-old qemu on a partial
rebase attempt. Fixes for the new semantics will come later. This
patch also removes a bogus ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL mistakenly added in
commit 10ec36e2.

In the future (my next patch in fact) we may want to make

Therefore, we want to set qemuCaps flag instead of querying
on the monitor each time we are about to make that decision.
If yajl was not compiled in, we end up freeing an incoming
parameter, which leads to a bogus free later on. Regression

on failure path, which in turn fixes bogus free.
Reported by Cole Robinson.
The qemu developers have made it clear that modern qemu will no
longer guarantee human monitor command stability; furthermore,
some features, such as async events, are only supported via qmp.
If we are compiled without support for handling JSON, we cannot
expect to sanely interact with modern qemu.
However, things must continue to build on RHEL 5, where qemu
is stuck at 0.10, and where yajl is not available.
Another benefit of this patch: future additions of new monitor
commands need only focus on qemu_monitor_json.c, instead of
also wasting time with qemu_monitor_text.c.

I'm getting tired of remembering to backport RHEL-specific
patches when building upstream libvirt on RHEL 6.x or CentOS.
All the affected versions of RHEL qemu-kvm have backported
enough patches to a) make JSON useful, and b) modify the
-help text to mention libvirt as the preferred interface;
which means this string in the help output is a reliable
indicator that we can outsmart a strict version check,
even when upstream qemu 0.12 lacked the needed features.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags):
Recognize particular help string present when enough features were
backported to be worth using JSON.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (mymain): Update tests accordingly.
There was missing capability for blkiotune and thus specifying these
settings caused libvirt to run qemu with invalid parameters and then
reporting qemu error instead of the standard libvirt one. The support
for blkiotune setting was added in upstream qemu repo under commit
0563e191516289c9d2f282a8c50f2eecef2fa773.
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.
