Support for all the 4.x releases was ended by VirtualBox maintainers in
Dec 2015. Even the "newest" 4.3.40 of those is only supported on old
versions of Linux (Ubuntu <= 13.03, RHEL <= 6, SLES <= 11), which are all
discontinued hosts from libvirt's POV.
We can thus reasonably drop all 4.x support from the libvirt VirtualBox
driver.

network: improve error report when firewall chain creation fails
We cache an error when failing to create the top level firewall chains.
This commit failed to account for fact that we may invoke
networkPreReloadFirewallRules() many times while libvirtd is running.
For example when firewalld is restarted.
When this happens the original failure may no longer occurr and we'll
successfully create our top level chains. We failed to clear the cached
error resulting in us failing to start virtual networks.

My earlier commit be46f61326 was incomplete. It removed caching of
microcode version in the CPU driver, which means the capabilities XML
will see the correct microcode version. But it is also cached in the
QEMU capabilities cache where it is used to detect whether we need to
reprobe QEMU. By missing the second place, the original commit
be46f61326 made the situation even worse since libvirt would report
correct microcode version while still using the old host CPU model
(visible in domain capabilities XML).

The NVIDIA V100 GPU has an onboard RAM that is mapped into the
host memory and accessible as normal RAM via an NVLink2 bridge. When
passed through in a guest, QEMU puts the NVIDIA RAM window in a
non-contiguous area, above the PCI MMIO area that starts at 32TiB.
This means that the NVIDIA RAM window starts at 64TiB and go all the
way to 128TiB.
This means that the guest might request a 64-bit window, for each PCI
Host Bridge, that goes all the way to 128TiB. However, the NVIDIA RAM
window isn't counted as regular RAM, thus this window is considered
only for the allocation of the Translation and Control Entry (TCE).
For more information about how NVLink2 support works in QEMU,
refer to the accepted implementation [1].
This memory layout differs from the existing VFIO case, requiring its
own formula. This patch changes the PPC64 code of
@qemuDomainGetMemLockLimitBytes to:
- detect if we have a NVLink2 bridge being passed through to the
guest. This is done by using the @ppc64VFIODeviceIsNV2Bridge function
added in the previous patch. The existence of the NVLink2 bridge in
the guest means that we are dealing with the NVLink2 memory layout;
- if an IBM NVLink2 bridge exists, passthroughLimit is calculated in a
different way to account for the extra memory the TCE table can alloc.
The 64TiB..128TiB window is more than enough to fit all possible
GPUs, thus the memLimit is the same regardless of passing through 1 or
multiple V100 GPUs.

The NVLink2 support in QEMU implements the detection of NVLink2
capable devices by verifying the attributes of the VFIO mem region
QEMU allocates for the NVIDIA GPUs. To properly allocate an
adequate amount of memLock, Libvirt needs this information before
a QEMU instance is even created, thus querying QEMU is not
possible and opening a VFIO window is too much.
An alternative is presented in this patch. Making the following
assumptions:
- if we want GPU RAM to be available in the guest, an NVLink2 bridge
must be passed through;
- an unknown PCI device can be classified as a NVLink2 bridge
if its device tree node has 'ibm,gpu', 'ibm,nvlink',
'ibm,nvlink-speed' and 'memory-region'.
This patch introduces a helper called @ppc64VFIODeviceIsNV2Bridge
that checks the device tree node of a given PCI device and
check if it meets the criteria to be a NVLink2 bridge. This
new function will be used in a follow-up patch that, using the
first assumption, will set up the rlimits of the guest
accordingly.

This does not cause a problem in usual scenarios thanks to us allowing
CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE for the qemu process, however in some scenarios this might be
an issue because the directory is created with mkdtemp(3) which explicitly
creates that with 0700 permissions and qemu running as non-root cannot access
that.
The scenarios include:
- Builds without CAPNG
- Running libvirtd in certain container configurations [1]
- and possibly others.

The new virHostCPUGetMSR internal API will try to read the MSR from

This patch adds an inline python code for reading MSR features. Since
reading MSRs is a privileged operation, we have to read them from
/dev/cpu/*/msr if it is readable (i.e., the script runs as root) or
fallback to using KVM ioctl which can be done by any user that can start
virtual machines.
The python code is inlined rather than provided in a separate script
because whenever there's an issue with proper detection of CPU features,
we ask the reporter to run cpu-gather.sh script to give us all data we
need to know about the host CPU. Asking them to run several scripts
would likely result in one of them being ignored or forgotten.
