All guest devices now use a common device address structure
summarized by:
enum virDomainDeviceAddressType {
VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_NONE,
VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_ADDRESS_TYPE_PCI,
};
struct _virDomainDevicePCIAddress {
unsigned int domain;
unsigned int bus;
unsigned int slot;
unsigned int function;
};
struct _virDomainDeviceInfo {
int type;
union {
virDomainDevicePCIAddress pci;
} addr;
};
This replaces the anonymous structs in Disk/Net/Hostdev data
structures. Where available, the address is *always* printed
in the XML file, instead of being hidden in the internal state
file.
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x1e' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
The structure definition is based on Wolfgang Mauerer's disk
controller patch series.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Define the <address> syntax and
associate it with disk/net/hostdev devices
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c,
src/libvirt_private.syms: APIs for parsing/formatting address
information. Also remove the QEMU specific 'pci_addr' attributes
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Replace use of 'pci_addr' attrs with
new standardized format.
XML schema for CPU flags
Firstly, CPU topology and model with optional features have to be
advertised in host capabilities:
<host>
<cpu>
<arch>ARCHITECTURE</arch>
<features>
<!-- old-style features are here -->
</features>
<model>NAME</model>
<topology sockets="S" cores="C" threads="T"/>
<feature name="NAME"/>
</cpu>
...
</host>
Secondly, drivers which support detailed CPU specification have to
advertise
it in guest capabilities:
<guest>
...
<features>
<cpuselection/>
</features>
</guest>
And finally, CPU may be configured in domain XML configuration:
<domain>
...
<cpu match="MATCH">
<model>NAME</model>
<topology sockets="S" cores="C" threads="T"/>
<feature policy="POLICY" name="NAME"/>
</cpu>
</domain>
Where MATCH can be one of:
- 'minimum' specified CPU is the minimum requested CPU
- 'exact' disable all additional features provided by host CPU
- 'strict' fail if host CPU doesn't exactly match
POLICY can be one of:
- 'force' turn on the feature, even if host doesn't have it
- 'require' fail if host doesn't have the feature
- 'optional' match host
- 'disable' turn off the feature, even if host has it
- 'forbid' fail if host has the feature
'force' and 'disable' policies turn on/off the feature regardless of its
availability on host. 'force' is unlikely to be used but its there for
completeness since Xen and VMWare allow it.
'require' and 'forbid' policies prevent a guest from being started on a host
which doesn't/does have the feature. 'forbid' is for cases where you disable
the feature but a guest may still try to access it anyway and you don't want
it to succeed.
'optional' policy sets the feature according to its availability on host.
When a guest is booted on a host that has the feature and then migrated to
another host, the policy changes to 'require' as we can't take the feature
away from a running guest.
Default policy for features provided by host CPU but not specified in domain
configuration is set using match attribute of cpu tag. If 'minimum' match is
requested, additional features will be treated as if they were specified
with 'optional' policy. 'exact' match implies 'disable' policy and 'strict'
match stands for 'forbid' policy.
* docs/schemas/capability.rng docs/schemas/domain.rng: extend the
RelaxNG schemas to add CPU flags support
Introduce a new type="dir" mode for <disks> that allows use of
QEMU's virtual FAT block device driver. eg
<disk type='dir' device='floppy'>
<source dir='/tmp/test'/>
<target dev='fda' bus='fdc'/>
<readonly/>
</disk>
gets turned into
-drive file=fat:floppy:/tmp/test,if=floppy,index=0
Only read-only disks are supported with virtual FAT mode

For backward compatibility we used to add the tty path as
a tty attribute on console of type pty, duplicating the value
now found in source/@path, but the Relax-NG grammar wasn't
extended for this
<console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/8'>
<source path='/dev/pts/8'/>
<target port='0'/>
</console>
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: allow an optional tty attribute
containing a devicePath
allows the following to be specified in a domain:
<channel type='pipe'>
<source path='/tmp/guestfwd'/>
<target type='guestfwd' address='10.0.2.1' port='4600'/>
</channel>
* proxy/Makefile.am: add network.c as dep of domain_conf.c

structure with an optional accel field, virDomainVideoAccelDefParseXML
and virDomainVideoAccelDefFormat functions to parse and serialize
the structure.
The XML allows <encryption format='unencrypted'/>, this implementation
canonicalizes the internal representation so that "disk->encryption" is
non-NULL iff encryption information is available.
A domain with partial encryption information can be defined,
completeness of the information is not verified. The domain won't
start until the remaining information is added, of course.
