5b90ef0847 qemu: detect vfio-pci device and its bootindex parameter
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VFIO_PCI is set if the device named "vfio-pci" is
supported in the qemu binary.

QEMU_CAPS_VFIO_PCI_BOOTINDEX is set if the vfio-pci device supports
the "bootindex" parameter;  for some reason, the bootindex parameter
wasn't included in early versions of vfio support (qemu 1.4) so we
have to check for it separately from vfio itself.

a6e37aedff Add USB option capability
To avoid the collision for creating USB controllers in machine->init()

f03dcc5df1 qemu: Allow migration over IPv6
Allow migration over IPv6 by listening on [::] instead of 0.0.0.0
when QEMU supports it (QEMU_CAPS_IPV6_MIGRATION) and there is
at least one v6 address configured on the system.

Use virURIParse in qemuMigrationPrepareDirect to allow parsing
IPv6 addresses, which would cause an 'incorrect :port' error
message before.

Move setting of migrateFrom from qemuMigrationPrepare{Direct,Tunnel}
after domain XML parsing, since we need the QEMU binary path from it
to get its capabilities.

The "dtb" option sets the filename for the device tree.
If without this option support, "-dtb file" will be converted into

608512b24a S390: QEMU driver support for CCW addresses
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.

    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.

1a50ba2cb0 qemu: Fix QMP Capabability Probing Failure
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
means that the libvirt daemonizing must be used.

037a49dc66 Make non-KVM machines work with QMP probing
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).

6d264c9182 blockjob: add qemu capabilities related to block jobs
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.

b073fe40db Refactor qemuCapsParseDeviceStr to work from data tables
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

capability flags. Instead obtain a qemuCapsPtr object
from the global cache. This avoids the execution of
'qemu -help' (and related commands) when launching new

When building up a virCapsPtr instance, the QEMU driver

3521cd1c32 qemu: wait for SPICE to migrate
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.

ff2d5a3d8a qemu: add support for dump-guest-core option
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'.

2b085f5bc5 blockjob: add qemu capabilities related to block pull jobs
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.

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'/>

dc79852af8 qemu: add ability to set PCI device "rombar" on or off
This patch was made in response to:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738095

In short, qemu's default for the rombar setting (which makes the
firmware ROM of a PCI device visible/not on the guest) was previously
0 (not visible), but they recently changed the default to 1
(visible). Unfortunately, there are some PCI devices that fail in the
guest when rombar is 1, so the setting must be exposed in libvirt to
prevent a regression in behavior (it will still require explicitly
setting <rom bar='off'/> in the guest XML).

rombar is forced on/off by adding:

  <rom bar='on|off'/>

inside a <hostdev> element that defines a PCI device. It is currently
ignored for all other types of devices.

At the moment there is no clean method to determine whether or not the
rombar option is supported by QEMU - this patch uses the advice of a
QEMU developer to assume support for qemu-0.12+. There is currently a
patch in the works to put this information in the output of "qemu-kvm
-device pci-assign,?", but of course if we switch to keying off that,
we would lose support for setting rombar on all the versions of qemu
between 0.12 and whatever version gets that patch.

f887334dcf Add unsafe cache mode support for disk driver
QEMU 0.13 introduced cache=unsafe for -drive, this patch exposes
it in the libvirt layer.

  * Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_UNSAFE),
    as even if $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't know if unsafe
    is supported.

  * Improved the reliability of qemu cache type detection.

f84aedad09 qemu: Fix shutdown regression with buggy qemu
The commit that prevents disk corruption on domain shutdown
(96fc478417) causes regression with QEMU
0.14.* and 0.15.* because of a regression bug in QEMU that was fixed
only recently in QEMU git. The affected versions of QEMU do not quit on
SIGTERM if started with -no-shutdown, which we use to implement fake
reboot. Since -no-shutdown tells QEMU not to quit automatically on guest
shutdown, domains started using the affected QEMU cannot be shutdown
properly and stay in a paused state.

This patch disables fake reboot feature on such QEMU by not using
-no-shutdown, which makes shutdown work as expected. However,
virDomainReboot will not work in this case and it will report "Requested
operation is not valid: Reboot is not supported with this QEMU binary".

6ee52c1b76 Add directsync cache mode support for disk driver
Newer QEMU introduced cache=directsync for -drive, this patchset
is to expose it in libvirt layer.

  * Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_DIRECTSYNC),
    As even $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't known if directsync
    is supported.

73c0a148af qemu: support event_idx parameter for virtio disk and net devices
In some versions of qemu, both virtio-blk-pci and virtio-net-pci
devices can have an event_idx setting that determines some details of
event processing. When it is enabled, it "reduces the number of
interrupts and exits for the guest". qemu will automatically enable
this feature when it is available, but there may be cases where this
new feature could actually make performance worse (NB: no such case
has been found so far).

As a safety switch in case such a situation is encountered in the
field, this patch adds a new attribute "event_idx" to the <driver>
element of both disk and interface devices. event_idx can be set to
"on" (to force event_idx on in case qemu has it disabled by default)
or "off" (for force event_idx off). In the case that event_idx support
isn't present in qemu, the attribute is ignored (this on the advice of
the qemu developer).

docs/formatdomain.html.in: document the new flag (marking it as
   "don't mess with this!"
docs/schemas/domain.rng: add event_idx in appropriate places
src/conf/domain_conf.[ch]: add event_idx to parser and formatter

    when appropriate.

874e65aa15 bios: Add support for SGA
This patch creates new <bios> element which, at this time has only the
attribute useserial='yes|no'. This attribute allow users to use
Serial Graphics Adapter and see BIOS messages from the very first moment
domain boots up. Therefore, users can choose boot medium, set PXE, etc.

017abcbb1a qemu: domain I/O asynchronous handling
For virtio disks and interfaces, qemu allows users to enable or disable
ioeventfd feature. This means, qemu can execute domain code, while
another thread waits for I/O event. Basically, in some cases it is win,
in some loss. This feature is available via 'ioeventfd' attribute in disk
and interface <driver> element. It accepts 'on' and 'off'. Leaving this
attribute out defaults to hypervisor decision.

51781b82f7 qemu: fix typo in name - should be VHOST_NET, not VNET_HOST
NB: the enum that uses the string vnet-host (now changed to vhost-net)
is used in XML, but fortunately that hasn't been in an official
release yet, so it can still be fixed.

43c01d3838 Persist qemu capabilities in the domain status file
To cope with the QEMU binary being changed while a VM is running,
it is neccessary to persist the original qemu capabilities at the
time the VM is booted.

* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c, src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h: Add
  an enum for a string rep of every capability
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c, src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Support for
  storing capabilities in the domain status XML
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Populate & free QEMU capabilities at
  domain startup
