Right now when building the qemu command line, we try to do various
unconditional validations of the guest CPU against the host CPU. However
this checks are overly applied. The only time we should use the checks
are:
- The user requests host-model/host-passthrough, or
- When KVM is requsted. CPU features requested in TCG mode are always
emulated by qemu and are independent of the host CPU, so no host CPU
checks should be performed.
Right now if trying to specify a CPU for arm on an x86 host, it attempts
to do non-sensical validation and falls over.
Switch all the test cases that were intending to test CPU validation to
use KVM, so they continue to test the intended code.
Amend some aarch64 XML tests with a CPU model, to ensure things work
correctly.
In the function at one place we check if def->cpu is NULL prior
to accessing def->cpu->ncells. Then, later in the code,
def->cpu->ncells is accessed directly, without the check. This
makes coverity unhappy, because the first check makes it think
def->cpu can be NULL. However, the function is not called if
def->cpu is NULL. Therefore, remove the first check and hopefully
make coverity cheer again.

This patch adds support for RDMA protocol in migration URIs.
USAGE: $ virsh migrate --live --migrateuri rdma://hostname domain qemu+ssh://hostname/system
Since libvirt runs QEMU in a pretty restricted environment, several
files needs to be added to cgroup_device_acl (in qemu.conf) for QEMU to
be able to access the host's infiniband hardware. Full documenation of
the feature can be found on QEMU wiki:

There are two ways how to tell qemu to use huge pages. The first one
is suitable for domains with NUMA nodes: the path to hugetlbfs mount
is appended to NUMA node definition on the command line. The second
one is suitable for UMA domains: here there's this global '-mem-path'
argument that accepts path to the hugetlbfs mount point. However, the
latter case was not used for all the cases that it should be. For
instance:
<memoryBacking>
<hugepages>
<page size='2048' unit='KiB' nodeset='0'/>
</hugepages>
</memoryBacking>
didn't trigger the '-mem-path' so the huge pages - despite being
configured - were not used at all.

As of 136ad4974 it is possible to specify different huge pages per
guest NUMA node. However, there's no check if nodeset specified in
./hugepages/page contains only those guest NUMA nodes that exist.
In other words with current code it is possible to define meaningless
combination:
<memoryBacking>
<hugepages>
<page size='1048576' unit='KiB' nodeset='0,2-3'/>
<page size='2048' unit='KiB' nodeset='1,4'/>
</hugepages>
</memoryBacking>
<vcpu placement='static'>4</vcpu>
<cpu>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0' memory='1048576'/>

<cell id='2' cpus='2' memory='1048576'/>

QEMU now supports UEFI with the following command line:
-drive file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_CODE.fd,if=pflash,format=raw,unit=0,readonly=on \
-drive file=/usr/share/OVMF/OVMF_VARS.fd,if=pflash,format=raw,unit=1 \
where the first line reflects <loader> and the second one <nvram>.
Moreover, these two lines obsolete the -bios argument.
Note that UEFI is unusable without ACPI. This is handled properly now.
Among with this extension, the variable file is expected to be
writable and hence we need security drivers to label it.

Up to now, users can configure BIOS via the <loader/> element. With
the upcoming implementation of UEFI this is not enough as BIOS and
UEFI are conceptually different. For instance, while BIOS is ROM, UEFI
is programmable flash (although all writes to code section are
denied). Therefore we need new attribute @type which will
differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to
reflect the fact that some images are RO.
Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two
modes:
1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.
2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files
The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the
configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need
yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional
attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable
store file.

For virtio-blk-pci disks with the disk iothread attribute that are
running the correct emulator, add the "iothread=iothread#" to the
-device command line in order to enable iothreads for the disk as
long as the command is available, the disk iothread value provided is
valid, and is supported for the disk device being added
Add a new capability to ensure the iothreads feature exists for the qemu
emulator being run - requires the "query-iothreads" QMP command. Using the
domain XML add correspoding command argument in order to generate the
threads. The iothreads will use a name space "iothread#" where, the
future patch to add support for using an iothread to a disk definition to
merely define which of the available threads to use.
Add tests to ensure the xml/argv processing is correct. Note that no
change was made to qemuargv2xmltest.c as processing the -object element
would require knowing more than just iothreads.
One useless warning, but the other one rather pertinent. On entry
the 'trans' variable is initialized to VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_TRANS_DEFAULT.
When the "trans" was found in the parsing loop it def->geometry.trans
was assigned to the return from virDomainDiskGeometryTransTypeFromString
and then 'trans' was used to do the comparison to see if it was valid.
So remove 'trans' and use def->geometry.trans properly
In qemuNetworkIfaceConnect() a call to virNetDevBandwidthSet() is
made where the function prototype requires the first parameter
(net->ifname) to be non NULL. Coverity complains that the subsequent
non NULL check for net->ifname prior to the next call gets flagged as
an unnecessary check. Resolve by removing the extra check
According to docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng and _virDomainBlockIoTuneInfo
all the iotune values are interpreted as unsigned long long, however
according to qemu_monitor_json.c, qemu silently truncates numbers
larger than LLONG_MAX. There's really not much of a usage for such
large numbers anyway yet. This patch provides the same overflow
check during a domain start as it does during setting
a blkdeviotune element in qemu_driver.c and thus reports an error when
a larger number than LLONG_MAX is detected.

Using 'virsh attach-device --config' (or --persistent) to attach a
file backed lun device will succeed; however, subsequent domain restarts
will result in failure because the configuration of a file backed lun
is not supported.
Although allowing 'illegal configurations' is something that can be
allowed, it may not be practical in this case. Generally, when attaching
a device to a domain means the domain must be running. A way around
this is using the --config (or --persistent) option. When an attach
is done to a running domain, a temporary configuration is modified
first followed by the live update. The live update will make a number
of disk validity checks when building the qemu command to attach the
disk. If any fail, then change is rejected.
Rather than allow a potentially illegal combination, adjust the code
in the configuration path to make the same checks as the running path
will make with respect to disk validity checks. This way we avoid
having the potential for some subsequent start/reboot to fail because
an illegal combination was allowed.
NB: The live path still checks the configuration since it is possible
to just do --live guest modification...

When starting up the domain the domain's NICs are allocated. As of
1f24f682 (v1.0.6) we are able to use multiqueue feature on virtio
NICs. It breaks network processing into multiple queues which can be
processed in parallel by different host CPUs. The queues are, however,
created by opening /dev/net/tun several times. Unfortunately, only the
first FD in the row is labelled so when turning the multiqueue feature
on in the guest, qemu will get AVC denial. Make sure we label all the
FDs needed.
Moreover, the default label of /dev/net/tun doesn't allow
attaching a queue:
type=AVC msg=audit(1399622478.790:893): avc: denied { attach_queue }
for pid=7585 comm="qemu-kvm"
scontext=system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c638,c877
tcontext=system_u:system_r:virtd_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023
tclass=tun_socket
And as suggested by SELinux maintainers, the tun FD should be labeled
as svirt_t. Therefore, we don't need to adjust any range (as done
previously by Guannan in ae368ebf) rather set the seclabel of the
domain directly.

If PCI passthrough type is not supported, we should error out rather than

When starting a domain, the type has been already checked by

Use better detection of hugetlbfs mount points. Yes, there can be

Since we already have ability to override the mount point in the

Now we allow multiple mount points, so the "hugetlbfs_mount" option
must take an list of strings (mount points). But previously, it was

Commit e5f36698e3 introduces a
false-positive build failure in the sound card model handling switch.
Initialize the model to NULL although the value should never be used.
Libvirt documents that the default entropy source for the 'random'

propagating NULL across our code and checking it in multiple places fill
the default in the post parse callback and use that in the other places.
Create the structures and API's to hold and manage the iSCSI host device.
This extends the 'scsi_host' definitions added in commit id '5c811dce'.
A future patch will add the XML parsing, but that code requires some
infrastructure to be in place first in order to handle the differences
between a 'scsi_host' and an 'iSCSI host' device.
Split virDomainHostdevSubsysSCSI further. In preparation for having
either SCSI or iSCSI data, create a union in virDomainHostdevSubsysSCSI
to contain just a virDomainHostdevSubsysSCSIHost to describe the
'scsi_host' host device
