f81e0d480e qemu: assume -drive format is always available
As of QEMU 0.10.0 the -drive format= parameter was added,
so the QEMU driver can assume it is always available.

8afd34f2d8 tests: redo test argv file line wrapping
Back in

  commit bd6c46fa0c
  Author: Juerg Haefliger <juerg.haefliger@hp.com>
  Date:   Mon Jan 31 06:42:57 2011 -0500

    tests: handle backspace-newline pairs in test input files

all the test argv files were line wrapped so that the args
were less than 80 characters.

The way the line wrapping was done turns out to be quite
undesirable, because it often leaves multiple parameters
on the same line. If we later need to add or remove
individual parameters, then it leaves us having to redo
line wrapping.

This commit changes the line wrapping so that every
single "-param value" is one its own new line. If the
"value" is still too long, then we break on ',' or ':'
or ' ' as needed.

This means that when we come to add / remove parameters
from the test files line, the patch diffs will only
ever show a single line added/removed which will greatly
simplify review work.

c32cfc6d3f QXL: fix setting ram and vram values for QEMU QXL device
QEMU has two different type of QXL display device. The first "qxl-vga"
is for primary video device and second "qxl" is for secondary video
device.

There are also two different ways how to specify those devices on qemu
command line, the first one and obsolete is using "-vga" option and the
current new one is using "-device" option. The "-vga" could be used only
to setup primary video device, so the "-vga qxl" equal to
"-device qxl-vga". Unfortunately the "-vga qxl" doesn't support setting
additional parameters for the device and "-global" option must be used
for this purpose. It's mandatory to use "-global qxl-vga...." to set the
parameters of primary video device previously defined with "-vga qxl".

81ba2298b2 video: cleanup usage of vram attribute and update documentation
The vram attribute was introduced to set the video memory but it is
usable only for few hypervisors excluding QEMU/KVM and the old XEN
driver. Only in case of QEMU the vram was used for QXL.

This patch updates the documentation to reflect current code in libvirt
and also changes the cases when we will set the default vram attribute.
It also fixes existing strange default value for VGA devices 9MB to 16MB
because the video ram should be rounded to power of two.

The change of default value could affect migrations but I found out that
QEMU always round the video ram to power of two internally so it's safe
to change the default value to the next closest power of two and also
silently correct every domain XML definition. And it's also safe because
we don't pass the value to QEMU.

386ebb47a5 qemu: prefer to put a Q35 machine's dmi-to-pci-bridge at 00:1E.0
This resolves one of the issues listed in:

   https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1003983

00:1E.0 is the location of this controller on at least some actual Q35
hardware, so we try to replicate the placement. The bridge should work
just as well in any other location though, so if 00:1E.0 isn't
available, just allow it to be auto-assigned anywhere appropriate.

30bb4c4b54 qemu: use "ide" as device name for implicit SATA controller on Q35
This resolves https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008903

The Q35 machinetype has an implicit SATA controller at 00:1F.2 which
isn't given the "expected" id of ahci0 by qemu when it's created. The
original suggested solution to this problem was to not specify any
controller for the disks that use the default controller and just
specify "unit=n" instead; qemu should then use the first IDE or SATA
controller for the disk.

Unfortunately, this "solution" is ignorant of the fact that in the
case of SATA disks, the "unit" attribute in the disk XML is actually
*not* being used for the unit, but is instead used to specify the
"bus" number; each SATA controller has 6 buses, and each bus only
allows a single unit. This makes it nonsensical to specify unit='n'
where n is anything other than 0. It also means that the only way to
connect more than a single device to the implicit SATA controller is
to explicitly give the bus names, which happen to be "ide.$n", where
$n can be replaced by the disk's "unit" number.

a216e64872 qemu: Set QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none with -nographic
On my machine, a guest fails to boot if it has a sound card, but not
graphical device/display is configured, because pulseaudio fails to
initialize since it can't access $HOME.

A workaround is removing the audio device, however on ARM boards there
isn't any option to do that, so -nographic always fails.

Set QEMU_AUDIO_DRV=none if no <graphics> are configured. Unfortunately
this has massive test suite fallout.

Add a qemu.conf parameter nographics_allow_host_audio, that if enabled
will pass through QEMU_AUDIO_DRV from sysconfig (similar to
vnc_allow_host_audio)

63ee776f8c Build QEMU command line for pcihole64
QEMU commit 3984890 introduced the "pci-hole64-size" property,
to i440FX-pcihost and q35-pcihost with a default setting of 2 GB.

Translate <pcihole64>x<pcihole64/> to:
-global q35-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=x for q35 machines and
-global i440FX-pcihost.pci-hole64-size=x for i440FX-based machines.

Error out on other machine types or if the size was specified
but the pcihost device lacks 'pci-hole64-size' property.
