xen.git commit babeca32 added a pkgconfig file for libxenlight,
allowing libxl apps to determine the location of Xen binaries
such as firmware blobs, device emulator, etc.
This patch adds support for xenlight.pc in the libxl driver, falling
back to the previous configure logic if not found. It introduces
LIBXL_FIRMWARE_DIR and LIBXL_EXECBIN_DIR to define the firmware and
libexec_bin locations. If xenlight.pc does not exist, the defines
are set to the current hardcoded paths. The capabilities'
<emulator> and <loader> elements are updated to use the paths.

Specifying an explicit path to pygrub (e.g. BINDIR "/pygrub") only works if
Xen and libvirt happen to be installed to the same prefix. A more flexible
approach is to simply specify "pygrub" which will cause libxl to use the
correct path which it knows (since it is built with the same prefix as pygrub).
This is particular problematic in the Debian packaging, since the Debian Xen
package relocates pygrub into a libexec dir, however I think this change makes
sense upstream.

This patch introduces a function to detect whether the specified
emulator is QEMU_XEN or QEMU_XEN_TRADITIONAL. Detection is based on the
string "Options specific to the Xen version:" in '$qemu -help' output.
AFAIK, the only qemu containing that string in help output is the
old Xen fork (aka qemu-dm).
Note:
QEMU_XEN means a qemu that contains support for Xen.
QEMU_XEN_TRADITIONAL means Xen's old forked qemu 0.10.2

libxl interface for vcpu pinning is changing in Xen 4.5. Basically,
libxl_set_vcpuaffinity() now wants one more parameter. That is
representative of 'VCPU soft affinity', which libvirt does not use.
To mark such change, the macro LIBXL_HAVE_VCPUINFO_SOFT_AFFINITY is
defined. Use it as a gate and, if present, re-#define the calls from
the old to the new interface, to avoid breaking the build.

Due to some misunderstanding of requirements libxl places on timer
handling, I introduced the half-brained idea of maintaining a list
of timeouts that the driver could force to expire before freeing a
libxlDomainObjPrivate (and hence libxl_ctx). But testing all
the latest versions of Xen supported by the libxl driver (4.2.3,
4.3.1, 4.4.0 RC3), I see that libxl will handle this just fine and
there is no need to force expiration behind libxl's back. Indeed it
may be harmful to do so.
This patch removes the timer list, allowing libxl to handle cleanup
of its timer registrations.

The libvirt_internal.h header was included by the internal.h header.
This made it painful to add new stuff to the header file that would
require some more specific types. Remove inclusion by internal.h and add
it to appropriate places manually.
As pointed out by the Xen folks [1], HVM nics should always be set
to type LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_VIF_IOEMU unless the user explicity requests
LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_VIF via model='netfront'. The current logic in
libxlMakeNic() only sets the nictype to LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_VIF_IOEMU if
a model is specified that is not 'netfront', which breaks PXE booting
configurations where no model is specified (i.e. use the hypervisor
default).

The libxlDriverPrivate struct contains an variety of data with
varying access needs. Similar to the QEMU and LXC drivers,
move all the static config data into a dedicated libxlDriverConfig
object. The only locking requirement is to hold the driver lock
while obtaining an instance of libxlDriverConfig. Once a reference
is held on the config object, it can be used completely lockless
since it is immutable.
libxl version info is static data as far as the libxl driver
is concerned, so retrieve this info when the driver is initialized
and stash it in the libxlDriverPrivate object. Subsequently use
the stashed info instead of repeatedly calling libxl_get_version_info().
Create libxl_domain.[ch] and move all functions operating on
libxlDomainObjPrivate to these files. This will be useful for
future patches that e.g. add job support for libxlDomainObjPrivate.
Commit d72ef888 introduced a bug in the libxl driver that will
segfault libvirtd if libxl reports an error message, e.g. when
attempting to initialize the driver on a non-Xen system. I
assumed it was valid to pass a NULL logger to libxl_ctx_alloc(),
but that is not the case since any errors associated with the ctx
that are emitted by libxl will dereference the logger and crash
libvirtd.
Errors associated with the libxl driver-wide ctx could be useful
for debugging anyway, so create a 'libxl-driver.log' to capture
these errors.
Currently, only one log file is created by the libxl driver, with
all output from libxl for all domains going to this one file.
Create a per-domain log file based on domain name, making sifting
through the logs a bit easier. This required deferring libxl_ctx
allocation until starting the domain, which is fine since the
ctx is not used when the domain is inactive.

The avail_vcpu bitmap has to be allocated before it can be used (using
the maximum allowed value for that). Then for each available VCPU the
bit in the mask has to be set (libxl_bitmap_set takes a bit position
as an argument, not the number of bits to set).
Without this, I would always only get one VCPU for guests created
through libvirt/libxl.

libxl uses some xenstore entries for hints in memory management
(especially when starting new domain). This includes dom0 memory limit
and Xen free memory margin, based on current system state. Entries are
created at first function usage, so force such call at daemon startup,
which most likely will be before any domain startup.
Also prevent automatic memory management if dom0_mem= option passed to
xen hypervisor - it is known to be incompatible with autoballoon.

The legacy xen toolstack will set pygrub as the bootloader if not
specified. For compatibility, do the same in the libxl driver
iff not using direct kernel boot.
This patch is the result of running:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep -v html | grep -v \.po$ ); do
sed -i -e "s/virDomainXMLConf/virDomainXMLOption/g" -e "s/xmlconf/xmlopt/g" $i
done
and a few manual tweaks.
The virCaps structure gathered a ton of irrelevant data over time that.
The original reason is that it was propagated to the XML parser
functions.
This patch aims to create a new data structure virDomainXMLConf that
will contain immutable data that are used by the XML parser. This will
allow two things we need:
1) Get rid of the stuff from virCaps
2) Allow us to add callbacks to check and add driver specific stuff
after domain XML is parsed.
This first attempt removes pointers to private data allocation functions
to this new structure and update all callers and function that require
them.
I've noticed that libxl can invoke timeout reregister/modify hooks
after returning from libxl_ctx_free. Explicitly remove the
timeouts before freeing the libxl ctx to avoid executing hooks on
stale objects.
The libxl driver is racy in it's interactions with libxl and libvirt's
event loop. The event loop can invoke callbacks after libxl has
deregistered the event, and possibly access freed data associated with
the event.
This patch fixes the race by converting libxlDomainObjPrivate to a
virObjectLockable, and locking it while executing libxl upcalls and
libvirt event loop callbacks.
Note that using the virDomainObj lock is not satisfactory since it may
be desirable to hold the virDomainObj lock even when libxl events such
as reading and writing to xenstore need processed.
Based on a patch originally authored by Daniel De Graaf
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2012-05/msg00565.html
This patch converts the Xen libxl driver to support only Xen >= 4.2.
Support for Xen 4.1 libxl is dropped since that version of libxl is
designated 'technology preview' only and is incompatible with Xen 4.2
libxl. Additionally, the default toolstack in Xen 4.1 is still xend,
for which libvirt has a stable, functional driver.
Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically
poll all stateful drivers. Thus sucks because it requires
acquiring both the driver lock and locks on every single virtual
machine. Instead pass in a "inhibit" callback to virStateInitialize
which drivers can invoke whenever they want to inhibit shutdown
due to existance of active VMs.
