Using more than 4TiB of memory per NUMA node would not be possible to
express in the XML without violating the schema. Not that such boxes
would be common, but we should use a longer type at this point.
The pattern is not necessary since libvirt redefines the type already in
basictypes.rng with the same pattern.

'model' attribute was added to a panic device but only one panic
device is allowed. This patch changes panic device presence
from 'optional' to 'zeroOrMore'.
Libvirt already has two types of panic devices - pvpanic and pSeries firmware.
This patch introduces the 'model' attribute and a new type of panic device.
'isa' model is for ISA pvpanic device.
'pseries' model is a default value for pSeries guests.
'hyperv' model is the new type. It's used for Hyper-V crash.
Schema and docs are updated for the new attribute.
Adjust the config code so that it does not enforce that target memory
node is specified. To avoid breakage, adjust the qemu memory hotplug
config checker to disallow such config for now.
Adds a new interface type using UDP sockets, this seems only applicable
to QEMU but have edited tree-wide to support the new interface type.
The interface type required the addition of a "localaddr" (local
address), this then maps into the following xml and qemu call.
<interface type='udp'>
<mac address='52:54:00:5c:67:56'/>
<source address='127.0.0.1' port='11112'>
<local address='127.0.0.1' port='22222'/>
</source>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
QEMU call:
-net socket,udp=127.0.0.1:11112,localaddr=127.0.0.1:22222
Notice the xml "local" entry becomes the "localaddr" for the qemu call.

This patch adds feature for lxc containers to inherit namespaces.
This is very similar to what lxc-tools or docker provides. Look
for "man lxc-start" and you will find that you can pass command
args as [ --share-[net|ipc|uts] name|pid ]. Or check out docker
networking option in which you can give --net=container:NAME_or_ID
as an option for sharing +namespace.
>From this patch you can add extra libvirt option to share
namespace in following way.
<lxc:namespace>
<lxc:sharenet type='netns' value='red'/>
<lxc:shareipc type='pid' value='12345'/>
<lxc:shareuts type='name' value='container1'/>
</lxc:namespace>
The netns option is specific to sharenet. It can be used to
inherit from existing network namespace.

This controller can be connected only to a port on a
pcie-switch-upstream-port. It provides a single hotpluggable port that
will accept any PCI or PCIe device, as well as any device requiring a
pcie-*-port (the only current example of such a device is the
pcie-switch-upstream-port).
This controller can be connected only to a pcie-root-port or a
pcie-switch-downstream-port (which will be added in a later patch),
which is the reason for the new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_PORT. A pcie-switch-upstream-port provides
32 ports (slot=0 to slot=31) on the downstream side, which can only
have pci controllers of model "pcie-switch-downstream-port" plugged
into them, which is the reason for the other new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_SWITCH.
This controller can be connected (at domain startup time only - not
hotpluggable) only to a port on the pcie root complex ("pcie-root" in
libvirt config), hence the new connect type
VIR_PCI_CONNECT_TYPE_PCIE_ROOT. It provides a hotpluggable port that
will accept any PCI or PCIe device.
New attributes must be added to the controller <target> subelement for
this - chassis and port are guest-visible option values that will be
set by libvirt with values derived from the controller's index and pci
address information.
There are some configuration options to some types of pci controllers
that are currently automatically derived from other parts of the
controller's configuration. For example, in qemu a pci-bridge
controller has an option that is called "chassis_nr"; up until now
libvirt has always set chassis_nr to the index of the pci-bridge. So
this:
<controller type='pci' model='pci-bridge' index='2'/>
will always result in:
-device pci-bridge,chassis_nr=2,...
on the qemu commandline. In the future we may decide there is a better
way to derive that option, but even in that case we will need for
existing domains to retain the same chassis_nr they were using in the
past - that is something that is visible to the guest so it is part of
the guest ABI and changing it would lead to problems for migrating
guests (or just guests with very picky OSes).
The <target> subelement has been added as a place to put the new
"chassisNr" attribute that will be filled in by libvirt when it
auto-generates the chassisNr; it will be saved in the config, then
reused any time the domain is started:
<controller type='pci' model='pci-bridge' index='2'>
<model type='pci-bridge'/>
<target chassisNr='2'/>
</controller>
The one oddity of all this is that if the controller configuration
is changed (for example to change the index or the pci address
where the controller is plugged in), the items in <target> will
*not* be re-generated, which might lead to conflict. I can't
really see any way around this, but fortunately if there is a
material conflict qemu will let us know and we will pass that on
to the user.
This new subelement is used in PCI controllers: the toplevel
*attribute* "model" of a controller denotes what kind of PCI
controller is being described, e.g. a "dmi-to-pci-bridge",
"pci-bridge", or "pci-root". But in the future there will be different
implementations of some of those types of PCI controllers, which
behave similarly from libvirt's point of view (and so should have the
same model), but use a different device in qemu (and present
themselves as a different piece of hardware in the guest). In an ideal
world we (i.e. "I") would have thought of that back when the pci
controllers were added, and used some sort of type/class/model
notation (where class was used in the way we are now using model, and
model was used for the actual manufacturer's model number of a
particular family of PCI controller), but that opportunity is long
past, so as an alternative, this patch allows selecting a particular
implementation of a pci controller with the "name" attribute of the
<model> subelement, e.g.:
<controller type='pci' model='dmi-to-pci-bridge' index='1'>
<model name='i82801b11-bridge'/>
</controller>
In this case, "dmi-to-pci-bridge" is the kind of controller (one that
has a single PCIe port upstream, and 32 standard PCI ports downstream,
which are not hotpluggable), and the qemu device to be used to
implement this kind of controller is named "i82801b11-bridge".
Implementing the above now will allow us in the future to add a new
kind of dmi-to-pci-bridge that doesn't use qemu's i82801b11-bridge
device, but instead uses something else (which doesn't yet exist, but
qemu people have been discussing it), all without breaking existing
configs.
(note that for the existing "pci-bridge" type of PCI controller, both
the model attribute and <model> name are 'pci-bridge'. This is just a
coincidence, since it turns out that in this case the device name in
qemu really is a generic 'pci-bridge' rather than being the name of
some real-world chip)

Defining a domain with a SCSI disk attached via a hostdev
tag and a source address unit value longer than two digits
causes an error when editing the domain with virsh edit,
even if no changes are made to the domain definition.
The error suggests invalid XML, somewhere:
# virsh edit lmb_guest
error: XML document failed to validate against schema:
Unable to validate doc against /usr/local/share/libvirt/schemas/domain.rng
Extra element devices in interleave
Element domain failed to validate content
The virt-xml-validate tool fails with a similar error:
# virt-xml-validate lmb_guest.xml
Relax-NG validity error : Extra element devices in interleave
lmb_guest.xml:17: element devices: Relax-NG validity error :
Element domain failed to validate content
lmb_guest.xml fails to validate
The hostdev tag requires a source address to be specified,
which includes bus, target, and unit address attributes.
According to the SCSI Architecture Model spec (section
4.9 of SAM-2), a LUN address is 64 bits and thus could be
up to 20 decimal digits long. Unfortunately, the XML
schema limits this string to just two digits. Similarly,
the target field can be up to 32 bits in length, which
would be 10 decimal digits.

Since the reference unit and target fields are used in
several places in the XML schema, create a separate one
specific for SCSI Logical Units that will permit the
greater length. This permits both the validation utility
and the virsh edit command to succeed when a hostdev
tag is included.

A new feature that can be turned on or off.
The QEMU machine vmport option allows to set the VMWare IO port
emulation. This emulation is useful for absolute pointer input when the
guest has vmware input drivers, and is enabled by default for kvm.
However it is unnecessary for Spice-enabled VM, since the agent already
handles absolute pointer and multi-monitors. Furthermore, it prevents
Spice from switching to relative input since the regular ps/2 pointer
driver is replaced by the vmware driver. It is thus advised to disable
vmport when using a Spice VM. This will permit the Spice client to
switch from absolute to relative pointer, as it may be required for
certain games or applications.
Adding a new XML element 'iothreadids' in order to allow defining
specific IOThread ID's rather than relying on the algorithm to assign
IOThread ID's starting at 1 and incrementing to iothreads count.
This will allow future patches to be able to add new IOThreads by
a specific iothread_id and of course delete any exisiting IOThread.
Each iothreadids element will have 'n' <iothread> children elements
which will have attribute "id". The "id" will allow for definition
of any "valid" (eg > 0) iothread_id value.
On input, if any <iothreadids> <iothread>'s are provided, they will
be marked so that we only print out what we read in.
On input, if no <iothreadids> are provided, the PostParse code will
self generate a list of ID's starting at 1 and going to the number
of iothreads defined for the domain (just like the current algorithm
numbering scheme). A future patch will rework the existing algorithm
to make use of the iothreadids list.
On output, only print out the <iothreadids> if they were read in.
According to docs, using 'lun' as a value for device attribute is only valid
with disk types 'block' and 'network'. However current RNG schema also allows
a combination type='file' device='lun' which results in a successfull
xml validation, but fails at qemuBuildCommandLine.
Besides fixing the RNG schema, this patch also adds a qemuxml2argvtest
for this case.

<memory model='dimm'>

<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>1</node>

This patch preemptively forbids use of the <memory> device in individual
drivers so the users are warned right away that the device is not
supported.
Add a XML element that will allow to specify maximum supportable memory
and the count of memory slots to use with memory hotplug.
To avoid possible confusion and misuse of the new element this patch
also explicitly forbids the use of the maxMemory setting in individual
drivers's post parse callbacks. This limitation will be lifted when the
support is implemented.
All the devices we have format their address as its last sub-element, so
let's change memballoon to follow suit. Also adjust RNG to allow any
order of them so 'virsh edit' doesn't shout at us.

Now that the size of guest's memory can be inferred from the NUMA
configuration (if present) make it optional to specify <memory>
explicitly.
To make sure that memory is specified add a check that some form of
memory size was specified. One side effect of this change is that it is
no longer possible to specify 0KiB as memory size for the VM, but I
don't think it would be any useful to do so. (I can imagine embedded
systems without memory, just registers, but that's far from what libvirt
is usually doing).
Forbidding 0 memory for guests also fixes a few corner cases where 0 was
not interpreted correctly and caused failures. (Arguments for numad when
using automatic placement, size of the balloon). This fixes problems
described in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161461
Test case changes are added to verify that the schema change and code

Our code supports that for ages. When using a <filterref/> to an

values. However, our RNG schema allowed only one parameter to be
passed.

In our RNG schema we do allow multiple (different) seclabels per-domain,
but don't allow this for devices, yet we neither have a check in our XML parser,
nor in a post-parse callback. In that case we should allow multiple
(different) seclabels for devices as well.
There are some interface types (notably 'server' and 'client')
which instead of allowing the default set of elements and
attributes (like the rest do), try to enumerate only the elements
they know of. This way it's, however, easy to miss something. For
instance, the <address/> element was not mentioned at all. This
resulted in a strange behavior: when such interface was added
into XML, the address was automatically generated by parsing
code. Later, the formatted XML hasn't passed the RNG schema. This
became more visible once we've turned on the XML validation on
domain XML changes: appending an empty line at the end of
formatted XML (to trick virsh think the XML had changed) made
libvirt to refuse the very same XML it formatted.
Instead of trying to find each element and attribute we are
missing in the schema, lets just allow all the elements and
attributes like we're doing that for the rest of types. It's no
harm if the schema is wider than our parser allows.
