So, you want to create a domain from XML. The domain already
exists in libvirt's database of domains. It's okay, because name
and UUID matches. However, on domain startup, internal
representation of the domain is overwritten with your XML even
though we claim that the XML you've provided is a transient one.
The bug is to be found across nearly all the drivers.
Le sigh.

After attach-device a <hostdev> with --config, new device doesn't
show up in dumpxml and in guest.
To fix that, set dev->data.hostdev = NULL after work so that the
pointer is not freed, since vmdef has the pointer and still need it.

commit 4b53d0d4ac "libxl: don't remove persistent domain on start
failure" cleans up the vm object and sets it to NULL if the vm is not
persistent, however at end job vm (now NULL) is dereferenced via the call to
libxlDomainObjEndJob. Avoid this by skipping "endjob" and going
straight to "cleanup" in this case.

Commit 45697fe5 added dom0 to driver->domains, but missed
setting its state to 'running'
$ virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
0 Domain-0 shut off
Set the state of virDomainObj in the functions that
actually change the domain state, instead of the generic
libxlDomainCleanup function. This approach gives functions
calling libxlDomainCleanup more flexibility wrt when and
how they change virDomainObj state via virDomainObjSetState.
The prior approach of calling virDomainObjSetState in
libxlDomainCleanup resulted in the following incorrect
coding pattern in the various functions that change
domain state
libxlDomain<DoStateTransition>
call libxl function to do state transition
emit lifecycle event
libxlDomainCleanup
virDomainObjSetState
Once simple manifestation of this bug is seeing a domain
running in virt-manager after selecting the shutdown button,
even after the domain has long shutdown.
In Xen, dom0 is really just another domain that supports ballooning,
adding/removing devices, changing vcpu configuration, etc. This patch
adds support to the libxl driver for managing dom0. Note that the
legacy xend driver has long supported managing dom0.
Operations that are not supported on dom0 are filtered in libvirt
where a sensible error is reported. Errors from libxl are not
always helpful. E.g., attempting a save on dom0 results in

def->vcpus was never updated after successfully changing the live
vcpu count of a domain. Subsequent queries for vcpu info would
return incorrect results. E.g.:
virsh vcpucount test
maximum config 4
maximum live 4
current config 4
current live 4
virsh setvcpus test 2
virsh vcpucount test
maximum config 4
maximum live 4
current config 4
current live 4
After patch, live current config is reported correctly:
virsh vcpucount test
maximum config 4
maximum live 4
current config 4
current live 2
While fixing this, noticed that the live config was not saved
to cfg->stateDir via virDomainSaveStatus. Save the live config
and change error handling of virDomainSave{Config,Status} to
log a message via VIR_WARN, instead of failing the entire
DomainSetVcpusFlags operation.

In the pre-NUMA ages pinning a vCPU to all pCPUs was eaqual to deleting
the pinning info. Now it does not entirely work that way. Pinning a vCPU
to all pCPUs might be a desired operation. Additionally removal of the
pinning will result into using the default pinning information at the
next boot which might be different from all vcpus.
This patch removes the false assumption that we should remove the
pinning after pinning to all vCPUs and tweaks the documentation for
virsh.
A later patch will implement a new flag for the virDomainPinVcpuFlags
API that will allow to remove the pinning in a sane way.
The libxl tries to check if it's running in dom0 by parsing
/proc/xen/capabilities and if that fails it doesn't load.
There's no procfs interface in Xen on FreeBSD, so this check always
fails.
In addition to checking procfs, check if /dev/xen/xenstored, that's enough to
check if we're running in dom0 in FreeBSD case.
Most virDomainDiskIndexByName callers do not care about the index; what

For some reason a union (_virNodeDevCapData) that had only been
declared inside the toplevel struct virNodeDevCapsDef was being used
as an argument to functions all over the place. Since it was only a
union, the "type" attribute wasn't necessarily sent with it. While
this works, it just seems wrong.
This patch creates a toplevel typedef for virNodeDevCapData and
virNodeDevCapDataPtr, making it a struct that has the type attribute
as a member, along with an anonymous union of everything that used to
be in union _virNodeDevCapData. This way we only have to change the
following:
s/union _virNodeDevCapData */virNodeDevCapDataPtr /
and
s/caps->type/caps->data.type/
This will make me feel less guilty when adding functions that need a
pointer to one of these.
Currently, the libxl driver does not support any security drivers.
When the qemu driver has no security driver configued,
nodeGetSecurityModel succeeds but returns an empty virSecurityModel
object. Do the same in the libxl driver instead of reporting
this function is not supported by the connection driver:
virNodeGetSecurityModel
Rearrange code so that the local variable is always initialized and
disposed.

Although needed in the Xen 4.1 libxl days, there is no longer any
benefit to having per-domain libxl_ctx. On the contrary, their use
makes the code unecessarily complicated and prone to deadlocks under
load. As suggested by the libxl maintainers, use a single libxl_ctx
as a handle to libxl instead of per-domain ctx's.
One downside to using a single libxl_ctx is there are no longer
per-domain log files for log messages emitted by libxl. Messages
for all domains will be sent to /var/log/libvirt/libxl/libxl-driver.log.

Informing libxl how to handle its child proceses should be done once

call this at initialisation".

Long ago I incorrectly associated libxl fd and timer registrations
with per-domain libxl_ctx objects. When creating a libxlDomainObjPrivate,
a libxl_ctx is allocated, and libxl_osevent_register_hooks is called
passing a pointer to the libxlDomainObjPrivate. When an fd or timer
registration occurred, the registration callback received the
libxlDomainObjPrivate, containing the per-domain libxl_ctx. This
libxl_ctx was then used when informing libxl about fd events or
timer expirations.
The problem with this approach is that fd and timer registrations do not
share the same lifespan as libxlDomainObjPrivate, and hence the per-domain
libxl_ctx ojects. The result is races between per-domain libxl_ctx's being
destoryed and events firing on associated fds/timers, typically manifesting
as an assert in libxl
libxl_internal.h:2788: libxl__ctx_unlock: Assertion `!r' failed
There is no need to associate libxlDomainObjPrivate objects with libxl's
desire to use libvirt's event loop. Instead, the driver-wide libxl_ctx can
be used for the fd and timer registrations.
This patch moves the fd and timer handling code away from the
domain-specific code in libxl_domain.c into libxl_driver.c. While at it,
function names were changed a bit to better describe their purpose.
The unnecessary locking was also removed since the code simply provides a
wrapper over the event loop interface. Indeed the locks may have been
causing some deadlocks when repeatedly creating/destroying muliple domains.
There have also been rumors about such deadlocks during parallel OpenStack
Tempest runs.

As pointed out by jtomko in his review of the IOThreads pinning code:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-March/msg00495.html
there are some comments sprinkled in indicating IOThreads were using
the same structure as the VcpuPin code...
This is the first patch of a few that will change the virDomainVcpuPin*
structures and code to just virDomainPin* - starting with the data
structure naming...
As there are two possible approaches to define a domain's memory size -
one used with legacy, non-NUMA VMs configured in the <memory> element
and per-node based approach on NUMA machines - the user needs to make
sure that both are specified correctly in the NUMA case.
To avoid this burden on the user I'd like to replace the NUMA case with
automatic totaling of the memory size. To achieve this I need to replace
direct access to the virDomainMemtune's 'max_balloon' field with
two separate getters depending on the desired size.
The two sizes are needed as:
1) Startup memory size doesn't include memory modules in some
hypervisors.
2) After startup these count as the usable memory size.
Note that the comments for the functions are future aware and document
state that will be present after a few later patches.
It will not be possible to detach such device later. Also improve
logging in such cases.

For stateless, client side drivers, it is never correct to
probe for secondary drivers. It is only ever appropriate to
use the secondary driver that is associated with the
hypervisor in question. As a result the ESX & HyperV drivers
have both been forced to do hacks where they register no-op
drivers for the ones they don't implement.
For stateful, server side drivers, we always just want to
use the same built-in shared driver. The exception is
virtualbox which is really a stateless driver and so wants
to use its own server side secondary drivers. To deal with
this virtualbox has to be built as 3 separate loadable
modules to allow registration to work in the right order.
This can all be simplified by introducing a new struct
recording the precise set of secondary drivers each
hypervisor driver wants
struct _virConnectDriver {
virHypervisorDriverPtr hypervisorDriver;
virInterfaceDriverPtr interfaceDriver;
virNetworkDriverPtr networkDriver;
virNodeDeviceDriverPtr nodeDeviceDriver;
virNWFilterDriverPtr nwfilterDriver;
virSecretDriverPtr secretDriver;
virStorageDriverPtr storageDriver;
};
Instead of registering the hypervisor driver, we now
just register a virConnectDriver instead. This allows
us to remove all probing of secondary drivers. Once we
have chosen the primary driver, we immediately know the
correct secondary drivers to use.

The path to the pty of a Xen PV console is set only in
virDomainOpenConsole. But this is done too late. A call to
virDomainGetXMLDesc done before OpenConsole will not have the path to
the pty, but a call after OpenConsole will.
e.g. of the current issue.
Starting a domain with '<console type="pty"/>'
Then:
virDomainGetXMLDesc():
<devices>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='xen' port='0'/>
</console>
</devices>
virDomainOpenConsole()
virDomainGetXMLDesc():
<devices>
<console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/30'>
<source path='/dev/pts/30'/>
<target type='xen' port='0'/>
</console>
</devices>
The patch intend to have the TTY path on the first call of GetXMLDesc.
This is done by setting up the path at domain start up instead of in
OpenConsole.

The virDomainDefParse* and virDomainDefFormat* methods both
accept the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags defined in the public API,
along with a set of other VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags
defined in domain_conf.c.
This is seriously confusing & error prone for a number of
reasons:
- VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE and
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU are only relevant for the
formatting operation
- Some of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags only apply
to parse or to format, but not both.
This patch cleanly separates out the flags. There are two
distint VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_* and VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_*
flags that are used by the corresponding methods. The
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags received via public API calls must
be converted to the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags where
needed.
The various calls to virDomainDefParse which hardcoded the
use of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE flag change to use the
VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_INACTIVE flag.
