A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away it has been decided
that libvirt will manage not only domains but host as well. And
with my latest work on qemu driver supporting huge pages, we miss
the cherry on top: an API to allocate huge pages on the run.
Currently users are forced to log into the host and adjust the
huge pages pool themselves. However, with this API the problem
is gone - they can both size up and size down the pool.

Let's fix this before we bake in a painful API. Since we know
that we have exactly one non-negative fd on success, we might
as well return the fd directly instead of forcing the user to
pass in a pointer. Furthermore, I found some memory and fd
leaks while reviewing the code - the idea is that on success,
libvirtd will have handed two fds in two different directions:
one to qemu, and one to the RPC client.

This commit (finally) adds the virDomainBlockCopy API, with the
intent that it will provide more power to the existing 'virsh
blockcopy' command.
'virsh blockcopy' was first added in Apr 2012 (v0.9.12), which
corresponds to the upstream qemu 1.2 timeframe. It was done as
a hack on top of the existing virDomainBlockRebase() API call,
for two reasons: 1) it was targetting a feature that landed first
in downstream RHEL qemu, but had not stabilized in upstream qemu
at the time (and indeed, 'drive-mirror' only landed upstream in
qemu 1.3 with slight differences to the first RHEL attempt,
and later gained further parameters like granularity and buf-size
that are also worth exposing), and 2) extending an existing API
allowed it to be backported without worrying about bumping .so
versions. A virDomainBlockCopy() API was proposed at that time
[1], but we decided not to accept it into libvirt until after
upstream qemu stabilized, and it ended up getting scrapped.
Whether or not RHEL should have attempted adding a new feature
without getting it upstream first is a debate that can be held
another day; but enough time has now elapsed that we are ready to
do the interface cleanly.
[1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-April/msg00768.html
Delaying the creation of a clean API until now has also had a
benefit: we've only recently learned of a few shortcomings in the
original design: 1) it is unable to target a network destination
(such as a gluster volume) because it hard-coded the assumption
that the destination is a local file name. Because of all the
refactoring we've done to add virStorageSourcePtr, we are in a
better position to declare an API that parses XML describing a
host storage source as the copy destination, which was not
possible had we implemented virDomainBlockCopy as it had been
originally envisioned (although a network target will have to wait
until a later libvirt release compared to the API addition to
actually be implemented). 2) the design of using MiB/sec as the
bandwidth throttle is rather coarse; qemu is actually tuned to
bytes/second, and libvirt is preventing access to that level of
detail. A later patch will add flags to existing block job API
that can request bytes/second instead of back-compat MiB/s, but as
this is a new API, we can get it right to begin with.
At least I had the foresight to create 'virsh blockcopy' as a
separate command at the UI level (commit 1f06c00) rather than
leaking the underlying API overload of virDomainBlockRebase onto
shell users.
A further note on the bandwidth option: virTypedParameters
intentionally lacks unsigned long (since variable-width
interaction between mixed 32- vs. 64-bit client/server setups is
nasty), but we have to deal with the fact that we are interacting
with existing older code that mistakenly chose unsigned long
bandwidth at a point before we decided to prohibit it in all new
API. The typed parameter is therefore unsigned long long, but
the implementation (in a later patch) will have to do overflow
detection on 32-bit platforms, as well as capping the value to
match the LLONG_MAX>>20 cap of the existing MiB/s interfaces.

The motivation for this API is that management layers that use libvirt
usually poll for statistics using various split up APIs we currently
provide. To get all the necessary stuff, the app needs to issue a lot of
calls and aggregate the results.
The APIs I'm introducing here:
1) Returns data in a format that we can expand in the future and is
(pseudo) hierarchical. The data is returned as typed parameters where
the fields are constructed as dot-separated strings containing names and
other stuff in a list of typed params.
2) Stats for multiple (all) domains can be queried at once and are
returned in one call. This will decrease the overhead necessary to issue
multiple calls per domain multiplied by the count of domains.
3) Selectable (bit mask) fields in the returned format. This will allow
to retrieve only specific stats according to the app's need.
The stats groups will be enabled using a bit field @stats passed as the
function argument. A few sample stats groups that this API will support:
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_CPU
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_BLOCK
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_INTERFACE
(Note that this is only an example, the initial implementation supports
only VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE while others will be added later.)
the returned typed params will use the following scheme
state.state = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING
state.reason = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_BOOTED (the actual values according to
the enum)
cpu.count = 8
cpu.0.state = running
cpu.0.time = 1234
On some places in the libvirt code we have:
f(a,z)
instead of
f(a, z)
This trivial patch fixes couple of such occurrences.

Instead of maintaining two very similar APIs, add the "@mac" parameter
to virNetworkGetDHCPLeases and kill virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC. Both
of those functions would return data the same way, so making @mac an
optional filter simplifies a lot of stuff.
Introduce 3 new APIs, virNetworkGetDHCPLeases, virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
and virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree.
* virNetworkGetDHCPLeases: returns the dhcp leases information for a given
virtual network.
For DHCPv4, the information returned:
- Network Interface Name
- Expiry Time
- MAC address
- IAID (NULL)
- IPv4 address (with type and prefix)
- Hostname (can be NULL)
- Client ID (can be NULL)
For DHCPv6, the information returned:
- Network Interface Name
- Expiry Time
- MAC address
- IAID (can be NULL, only in rare cases)
- IPv6 address (with type and prefix)
- Hostname (can be NULL)
- Client DUID
Note: @mac, @iaid, @ipaddr, @clientid are in ASCII form, not raw bytes.
Note: @expirytime can 0, in case the lease is for infinite time.
* virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC: returns the dhcp leases information for a
given virtual network and specified MAC Address.
* virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree: allows the upper layer application to free the
network interface object conveniently.
There is no support for flags, so user is expected to pass 0 for
both the APIs.
include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in:
* Define virNetworkGetDHCPLeases
* Define virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
* Define virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree
src/driver.h:
* Define networkGetDHCPLeases
* Define networkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
src/libvirt.c:
* Implement virNetworkGetDHCPLeases
* Implement virNetworkGetDHCPLeasesForMAC
* Implement virNetworkDHCPLeaseFree
src/libvirt_public.syms:
* Export the new symbols
The aim of the API is to get information on number of free pages
on the system. The API behaves similar to the
virNodeGetCellsFreeMemory(). User passes starting NUMA cell, the
count of nodes that he's interested in, pages sizes (yes,
multiple sizes can be queried at once) and the counts are
returned in an array.

These APIs allow users to get or set time in a domain, which may come
handy if the domain has been resumed just recently and NTP is not

something time critical. In addition, NTP may refuse to re-set the clock
if the skew is too big.

Several times in the past, qemu has implemented a new event,
but libvirt has not yet caught up to reporting that event to
the user applications. While it is possible to track libvirt
logs to see that an unknown event was received and ignored,
it would be nicer to copy what 'virsh qemu-monitor-command'
does, and expose this information to the end developer as
one of our unsupported qemu-specific commands.
If you find yourself needing to use this API for more than
just development purposes, please ask on the libvirt list
for a supported counterpart event to be added in libvirt.so.
While the supported virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny() API
takes an id which determines the signature of the callback,
this version takes a string filter and always uses the same
signature. Furthermore, I chose to expose this as a new API
instead of trying to add a new eventID at the top level, in
part because the generic option lacks event name filtering,
and in part because the normal domain event namespace should
not be polluted by a qemu-only event. I also added a flags
argument; unused for now, but we might decide to use it to
allow a user to request event names by glob or regex instead
of literal match.
This API intentionally requires full write access (while
normal event registration is allowed on read-only clients);
this is in part due to the fact that it should only be used
by debugging situations, and in part because the design of
per-event filtering in later patches ended up allowing for
duplicate registrations that could potentially be abused to
exhaust server memory - requiring write privileges means
that such abuse will not serve as a denial of service attack
against users with higher privileges.

At this point it has a limited functionality and is highly
experimental. Supported domain operations are:
* define
* start
* destroy
* dumpxml
* dominfo
It's only possible to have only one disk device and only one
network, which should be of type bridge.
The libvirt_internal.h header was included by the internal.h header.

require some more specific types. Remove inclusion by internal.h and add
it to appropriate places manually.

With container based virt, it is useful to be able to pass
pre-opened file descriptors to the container init process.
This allows for containers to be auto-activated from incoming
socket connections, passing the active socket into the container.
To do this, introduce a pair of new APIs, virDomainCreateXMLWithFiles
and virDomainCreateWithFiles, which accept an array of file
descriptors. For the LXC driver, UNIX file descriptor passing
will be used to send them to libvirtd, which will them pass
them down to libvirt_lxc, which will then pass them to the container
init process.
This will only be implemented for LXC right now, but the design
is generic enough it could work with other hypervisors, hence
I suggest adding this to libvirt.so, rather than libvirt-lxc.so

Since the name (like scsi_host10) is not stable for vHBA, (it can
be changed either after recreating or system rebooting), current
API virNodeDeviceLookupByName is not nice to use for management app
in this case. (E.g. one wants to destroy the vHBA whose name has
been changed after system rebooting, he has to find out current
name first).
Later patches will support the persistent vHBA via storage pool,
with which one can identify the vHBA stably by the wwnn && wwpn
pair.
So this new API comes.
This patch introduces support for LXC specific public APIs. In
common with what was done for QEMU, this creates a libvirt_lxc.so
library and libvirt/libvirt-lxc.h header file.
The actual APIs are
int virDomainLxcOpenNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
int **fdlist,
unsigned int flags);
int virDomainLxcEnterNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
unsigned int nfdlist,
int *fdlist,
unsigned int *noldfdlist,
int **oldfdlist,
unsigned int flags);
which provide a way to use the setns() system call to move the
calling process into the container's namespace. It is not
practical to write in a generically applicable manner. The
nearest that we could get to such an API would be an API which
allows to pass a command + argv to be executed inside a
container. Even if we had such a generic API, this LXC specific
API is still useful, because it allows the caller to maintain
the current process context, in particular any I/O streams they
have open.
NB the virDomainLxcEnterNamespace() API is special in that it
runs client side, so does not involve the internal driver API.

Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically

This patch adds a new public API virNetworkUpdate that will permit
updating an existing network configuration without requiring that the
network be destroyed/restarted for the changes to take effect.
A block commit moves data in the opposite direction of block pull.
Block pull reduces the chain length by dropping backing files after
data has been pulled into the top overlay, and is always safe; block
commit reduces the chain length by dropping overlays after data has
been committed into the backing file, and any files that depended
on base but not on top are invalidated at any point where they have
unallocated data that is now pointing to changed contents in base.
Both directions are useful, however: a qcow2 layer that is more than
50% allocated will typically be faster with a pull operation, while
a qcow2 layer with less than 50% allocation will be faster as a
commit operation. Committing across multiple layers can be more
efficient than repeatedly committing one layer at a time, but
requires extra support from the hypervisor.
This API matches Jeff Cody's proposed qemu command 'block-commit':
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02226.html
Jeff's command is still in the works for qemu 1.3, and may gain
further enhancements, such as the ability to control on-error
handling (it will be comparable to the error handling Paolo is
adding to 'drive-mirror', so a similar solution will be needed
when I finally propose virDomainBlockCopy with more functionality
than the basics supported by virDomainBlockRebase). However, even
without qemu support, this API will be useful for _offline_ block
commits, by wrapping qemu-img calls and turning them into a block
job, so this API is worth committing now.
For some examples of how this will be implemented, all starting
with the chain: base <- snap1 <- snap2 <- active
+ These are equivalent:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "active", 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", "active", 0, 0)
but cannot be implemented for online qemu with round 1 of
Jeff's patches; and for offline images, it would require
three back-to-back qemu-img invocations unless qemu-img
is patched to allow more efficient multi-layer commits;
the end result would be 'base' as the active disk with
contents from all three other files, where 'snap1' and
'snap2' are invalid right away, and 'active' is invalid
once any further changes to 'base' are made.
+ These are equivalent:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, 0)
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, _SHALLOW)
they cannot be implemented for online qemu, but for offline,
it is a matter of 'qemu-img commit active', so that 'snap2'
is now the active disk with contents formerly in 'active'.
+ Similarly:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, _DELETE)
for an offline domain will merge 'active' into 'snap2', then
delete 'active' to avoid leaving a potentially invalid file
around.
+ This version:
virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "snap2", 0, _SHALLOW)
can be implemented online with 'block-commit' passing a base of
snap1 and a top of snap2; and can be implemented offline by
'qemu-img commit snap2' followed by 'qemu-img rebase -u
-b snap1 active'
