Traditionally, we pass incoming migration URI on QEMU command line,
which has some drawbacks. Depending on the URI QEMU may initialize its
migration state immediately without giving us a chance to set any
additional migration parameters (this applies mainly for fd: URIs). For
some URIs the monitor may be completely blocked from the beginning until
migration is finished, which means we may be stuck in qmp_capabilities
command without being able to send any QMP commands.
QEMU solved this by introducing "defer" parameter for -incoming command
line option. This will tell QEMU to prepare for an incoming migration
while the actual incoming URI is sent using migrate-incoming QMP
command. Before calling this command we can normally talk to the
monitor and even set any migration parameters which will be honored by
the incoming migration.

The downstream ports of an x3130-upstream switch can each have one of
these plugged into them (and that is the only place they can be
connected). Each xio3130-downstream provides a single PCIe port that
can have PCI or PCIe devices hotplugged into it. Apparently an entire
set of x3130-upstream + several xio3130-downstreams can be hotplugged
as a unit, but it's not clear to me yet how that would be done, since
qemu only allows attaching a single device at a time.
This device will be used to implement the
"pcie-switch-downstream-port" model of pci controller.
This is the upstream part of a PCIe switch. It connects to a PCIe port
(but not PCI) on the upstream side, and can have up to 31
xio3130-downstream controllers (but no other types of devices)
connected to its downstream side.
This device will be used to implement the "pcie-switch-upstream-port"
model of pci controller.
This is a PCIE "root port". It connects only to a port of the
integrated pcie.0 bus of a Q35 machine (can't be hotplugged), and
provides a single PCIe port that can have PCI or PCIe devices
hotplugged into it.
This device will be used to implement the "pcie-root-port" model of
pci controller.
This capability specifies that qemu can implement generic PCI host
controller. It is often used for virtual environments, including ARM.

Set the capability based on qmp query, or qemu version. The qmp query
includes vmport with 2.2, but no longer with 2.3. It lists only
non-machine specific capabilities, so check the qemu version too until a
machine-specific query is supported.
Not all machine types support all devices, device properties, backends,
etc. So until we create a matrix of [machineType, qemuCaps], lets just
filter out some capabilities before we return them to the consumer
(which is going to make decisions based on them straight away).
Currently, as qemu is unable to tell which capabilities are (not)
enabled for given machine types, it's us who has to hardcode the matrix.
One day maybe the hardcoding will go away and we can create the matrix
dynamically on the fly based on a few monitor calls.

It is often helpful to know which version of libvirt and QEMU
was present when a guest was first launched. Ensure this info
is written into the QEMU log file for each guest.
If probing capabilities via QMP fails, we now have a check
that prevents us falling back to -help parsing. Unfortunately
the error message
"Failed to probe capabilities for /usr/bin/qemu-kvm:
unsupported configuration: QEMU 2.1.2 is too new for help parsing"
is proving rather unhelpful to the user. We need to be telling
them why QMP failed (the root cause), rather than they can't
use -help (the side effect).
To do this we should capture stderr during QMP probing, and
if -help parsing then sees a new QEMU version, we know that
QMP should have worked, and so we can show the messages from
stderr. The message thus becomes
"Failed to probe capabilities for /usr/bin/qemu-kvm:
internal error: QEMU / QMP failed: Could not access
KVM kernel module: No such file or directory
failed to initialize KVM: No such file or directory"

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1140981 reports that
the qemu-kvm shipped as part of RHEL 7.0 intentionally[1] cripples
block jobs by removing the 'block-stream' QMP command, while still
leaving 'block-job-cancel' as an unusable no-op. Meanwhile, we
already had existing code that checked whether block jobs were
completely missing (such as qemu 0.15), old style (cancel is
synchronous, and all commands spelled with '_'), or new style
(cancel is asynchronous, and all commands spelled with '-'), and
used that three-way probe to give decent error messages. At the
time that code was added, all existing qemu versions fell in one
of three buckets, and the code was using the presence of
'block-job-cancel' as the witness of which of the three buckets.
But now that RHEL qemu has shipped with intentionally crippled
'block-stream', we have a fourth bucket, which results in ugly
error messages when trying 'virsh blockpull':
error: Requested operation is not valid: Command 'block-stream' is not found
In reality, the fourth bucket should be treated the same as the
first bucket (no block job support); we can do that by realizing
that no existing build of qemu has working block-stream while
lacking block-job-cancel, so it is easiest to change our witness
to the command that starts a job rather than ends one. We still
act correctly regarding command spelling and whether cancel is
asynchronous. And on crippled RHEL builds, we now get the desired:
error: unsupported configuration: block jobs not supported with this qemu binary
[1] The intentional cripple is limited to qemu-kvm of RHEL; when using
qemu-kvm-rhev of RHEV, block job functionality is supported. Don't ask
me to explain the "why" behind it all - I'm just dealing with fallout
from someone else's decision.

An advice appeared there on the qemu-devel list [1]. When a domain is
suspended and then resumed guest kernel is not aware of this. So we've
introduced virDomainSetTime API that resets the time within guest
using qemu-ga. On the other hand, qemu itself is trying to make RTC
beat faster to catch the difference. But if we don't tell qemu that
guest's time was reset via the other method, both mechanisms are
applied resulting in again wrong guest time. In order to avoid summing
both corrections we need to tell qemu that it should not use the RTC
injection if the guest time is set via guest agent.

This command allows to change the backing file name recorded in the

the "block-stream" and "block-commit" commands understand the
"backing-file" attribute.
Use the probing functionality added in the last patch to turn on
a capability bit when active commit is present, and gate active
commit on that capability.
For my own reference: the difference between BLOCKJOB_SYNC and
BLOCKJOB_ASYNC is whether qemu generated an event at the
conclusion of blockpull; basically, RHEL 6.2 was the only release
of qemu that has the sync semantics and lacks the event. RHEL
6.3 added blockcopy, but also picked up on the upstream style
of qemu generating events. As no one is likely to backport
active commit to RHEL 6.2, it's safe for blockcommit to always
require async blockjob support.

Add a 'log_timestamp' option to qemu.conf for disabling this behavior.
Quite a long time ago, (apparently between qemu 0.12 and 0.13) qemu
quietly began supporting the optional specification of a domain in the
host-side address of all pci passthrough commands (by simply
prepending it to the bus:slot.function format, as
"dddd:bb:ss.f"). Since machines with multiple PCI domains are very
rare, this never came up in practice, so libvirt was never updated to
support it.
This patch takes the first step to supporting specification of a non-0
domain in the host-side address of PCI devices being assigned to a
domain, by adding a capability bit to indicate support
"QEMU_CAPS_HOST_PCI_MULTIDOMAIN", and detect it. Since this support
was added in a version prior to the minimum version required for
QMP-style capabilities detection, the capability is always enabled for
any qemu that uses QMP for capabilities detection. For older qemus,
the only clue that a domain can be specified in the host pci address
is the presence of the string "[seg:]" in the help string for
-pcidevice. (Ironically, libvirt will not be modified to support
specification of domain for -pcidevice, since any qemu new enough for
us to care about also supports "-device pci-assign" or "-device
vfio-pci", which are greatly preferred).
Recent discussions around naming of 'pci' vs 'pci.0' for PPC
made me go back and look at the PPC emulator in every historical
version of QEMU since 1.0. The results were worse than I imagined.
This patch adds the logic required to make libvirt work with PPC
correctly with naming variations across all versions & machine
types.

Extracting capabilities from QEMU takes a notable amount of time

On a system that is enforcing FIPS, most libraries honor the
current mode by default. Qemu, on the other hand, refused to
honor FIPS mode unless you add the '-enable-fips' command
line option; worse, this option is not discoverable via QMP,
and is only present on binaries built for Linux. So, if we
detect FIPS mode, then we unconditionally ask for FIPS; either
qemu is new enough to have the option and then correctly
cripple insecure VNC passwords, or it is so old that we are
correctly avoiding a FIPS violation by preventing qemu from
starting. Meanwhile, if we don't detect FIPS mode, then
omitting the argument is safe whether the qemu has the option
(but it would do nothing because FIPS is disabled) or whether
qemu lacks the option (including in the case where we are not
running on Linux).
The testsuite was a bit interesting: we don't want our test
to depend on whether it is being run in FIPS mode, so I had
to tweak things to set the capability bit outside of our
normal interaction with capability parsing.

would be the unbootable disk device (again - even though it wasn't
given a boot order), and get stuck at a "BOOT DISK FAILURE, PRESS ANY
KEY" message until a user intervened.
The solution available since sometime around QEMU 1.5, is to add
"-boot strict=on" to *every* qemu command. When this is done, if any
devices have a boot order specified, then QEMU will *only* attempt to
boot from those devices that have an explicit boot order, ignoring the
rest.
This basically covers the talking-to-monitor part of
virQEMUCapsInitQMP. The patch itself has no real value,
but it creates an entity to be tested in the next patches.

This resolves one of the issues in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1003983
This device is identical to qemu's "intel-hda" device (known as "ich6"
in libvirt), but has a different PCI device ID (which matches the ID
of the hda audio built into the ich9 chipset, of course). It's not
supported in earlier versions of qemu, so it requires a capability
bit.
Starting with qemu 1.6, the qemu-system-arm vexpress-a9 model has a
hardcoded virtio-mmio transport which enables attaching all virtio
devices.
On the command line, we have to use virtio-XXX-device rather than
virtio-XXX-pci, thankfully s390 already set the precedent here so
it's fairly straight forward.
At the XML level, this adds a new device address type virtio-mmio.
The controller and addressing don't have any subelements at the
moment because we they aren't needed for this usecase, but could
be added later if needed.
Add a test case for an ARM guest with one of every virtio device
enabled.
QEMU ARM boards don't give us any way to explicitly wire in
a -chardev, so use the old style -serial options.
Unfortunately this isn't as simple as just turning off the CHARDEV flag
for qemu-system-arm, as upcoming virtio support _will_ use device/chardev.
Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
which is the same behaviour as before.
To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
'-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.

This PCI controller, named "dmi-to-pci-bridge" in the libvirt config,
and implemented with qemu's "i82801b11-bridge" device, connects to a
PCI Express slot (e.g. one of the slots provided by the pcie-root
controller, aka "pcie.0" on the qemu commandline), and provides 31
*non-hot-pluggable* PCI (*not* PCIe) slots, numbered 1-31.
Any time a machine is defined which has a pcie-root controller
(i.e. any q35-based machinetype), libvirt will automatically add a
dmi-to-pci-bridge controller if one doesn't exist, and also add a
pci-bridge controller. The reasoning here is that any useful domain
will have either an immediate (startup time) or eventual (subsequent
hot-plug) need for a standard PCI slot; since the pcie-root controller
only provides PCIe slots, we need to connect a dmi-to-pci-bridge
controller to it in order to get a non-hot-plug PCI slot that we can
then use to connect a pci-bridge - the slots provided by the
pci-bridge will be both standard PCI and hot-pluggable.
Since pci-bridge devices themselves can not be hot-plugged into a
running system (although you can hot-plug other devices into a
pci-bridge's slots), any new pci-bridge controller that is added can
(and will) be plugged into the dmi-to-pci-bridge as long as it has
empty slots available.
This patch is also changing the qemuxml2xml-pcie test from a "DO_TEST"
to a "DO_DIFFERENT_TEST". This is so that the "before" xml can omit
the automatically added dmi-to-pci-bridge and pci-bridge devices, and
the "after" xml can include it - this way we are testing if libvirt is
properly adding these devices.

This patch adds a new capability bit QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_RNG_EGD and code
to support the egd backend for the VirtIO RNG device.
The device is added by 3 qemu command line options:
-chardev socket,id=charrng0,host=1.2.3.4,port=1234 (communication
backend)
-object rng-egd,chardev=charrng0,id=rng0 (RNG protocol client)
-device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 (the RNG device)
This patch implements support for the virtio-rng-pci device and the
rng-random backend in qemu.
Two capabilities bits are added to track support for those:
QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIRTIO_RNG - for the device support and
QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_RNG_RANDOM - for the backend support.
qemu is invoked with these additional parameters if the device is
enabled:
-object rng-random,id=rng0,filename=/test/phile (to add the backend)
-device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 (to add the device)
To avoid confusion between 'virCapsPtr' and 'qemuCapsPtr'

qemu: Fix QMP Capabability Probing Failure
which attempted to make sure the QEMU process used for probing
ran as the right user id, caused serious performance regression
and unreliability in probing. The -daemonize switch in QEMU
guarantees that the monitor socket is present before the parent
process exits. This means libvirtd is guaranteed to be able to
connect immediately. By switching from -daemonize to the
virCommandDaemonize API libvirtd was no longer synchronized with
QEMU's startup process. The result was that the QEMU monitor
failed to open and went into its 200ms sleep loop. This happened
for all 25 binaries resulting in 5 seconds worth of sleeping
at libvirtd startup. In addition sometimes when libvirt connected,
QEMU would be partially initialized and crash causing total
failure to probe that binary.
This commit reverts the previous change, ensuring we do use the
-daemonize flag to QEMU. Startup delay is cut from 7 seconds
to 2 seconds on my machine, which is on a par with what it was
prior to the capabilities rewrite.
To deal with the fact that QEMU needs to be able to create the
pidfile, we switch pidfile location fron runDir to libDir, which
QEMU is guaranteed to be able to write to.

QMP Capability probing will fail if QEMU cannot bind to the
QMP monitor socket in the qemu_driver->libDir directory.
That's because the child process is stripped of all
capabilities and this directory is chown'ed to the configured
QEMU user/group (normally qemu:qemu) by the QEMU driver.
To prevent this from happening, the driver startup will now pass
the QEMU uid and gid down to the capability probing code.
All capability probing invocations of QEMU will be run with
the configured QEMU uid instead of libvirtd's.
Furter, the pid file handling is moved to libvirt, as QEMU
cannot write to the qemu_driver->runDir (root:root). This also
means that the libvirt daemonizing must be used.

When there is no 'qemu-kvm' binary and the emulator used for a machine
is, for example, 'qemu-system-x86_64' that, by default, runs without
kvm enabled, libvirt still supplies '-no-kvm' option to this process,
even though it does not recognize such option (making the start of a
domain fail in that case).
This patch fixes building a command-line for QEMU machines without KVM
acceleration and is based on following assumptions:
- QEMU_CAPS_KVM flag means that QEMU is running KVM accelerated
machines by default (without explicitly requesting that using a
command-line option). It is the closest to the truth according to
the code with the only exception being the comment next to the
flag, so it's fixed in this patch as well.
- QEMU_CAPS_ENABLE_KVM flag means that QEMU is, by default, running
without KVM acceleration and in case we need KVM acceleration it
needs to be explicitly instructed to do so. This is partially
true for the past (this option essentially means that QEMU
recognizes the '-enable-kvm' option, even though it's almost the
same).
Upstream qemu 1.3 is adding two new monitor commands, 'drive-mirror'
and 'block-job-complete'[1], which can drive live block copy and
storage migration. [Additionally, RHEL 6.3 had backported an earlier
version of most of the same functionality, but under the names
'__com.redhat_drive-mirror' and '__com.redhat_drive-reopen' and with
slightly different JSON arguments, and has been using patches similar
to these upstream patches for several months now.]
The libvirt API virDomainBlockRebase as already committed for 0.9.12
is flexible enough to expose the basics of block copy, but some
additional features in the 'drive-mirror' qemu command, such as
setting error policy, setting granularity, or using a persistent
bitmap, may later require a new libvirt API virDomainBlockCopy. I
will wait to add that API until we know more about what qemu 1.3
will finally provide.
This patch caters only to the upstream qemu 1.3 interface, although
I have proven that the changes for RHEL 6.3 can be isolated to
just qemu_monitor_json.c, and the rest of this series will
gracefully handle either interface once the JSON differences are
papered over in a downstream patch.
For consistency with other block job commands, libvirt must handle
the bandwidth argument as MiB/sec from the user, even though qemu
exposes the speed argument as bytes/sec; then again, qemu rounds
up to cluster size internally, so using MiB hides the worst effects
of that rounding if you pass small numbers.

Since libvirt switched to QMP capabilities probing recently, it starts
QEMU process used for this probing with -daemonize, which means
virCommandAbort can no longer reach these processes. As a result of
that, restarting libvirtd will leave several new QEMU processes behind.
Let's use QEMU's -pidfile and use it to kill the process when QMP caps
probing is done.
