By querying the qemu guest agent with the QMP command
"guest-network-get-interfaces" and converting the received JSON
output to structured objects.
Although "ifconfig" is deprecated, IP aliases created by "ifconfig"
are supported by this API. The legacy syntax of an IP alias is:
"<ifname>:<alias-name>". Since we want all aliases to be clubbed
under parent interface, simply stripping ":<alias-name>" suffices.
Note that IP aliases formed by "ip" aren't visible to "ifconfig",
and aliases created by "ip" do not have any specific name. But
we are lucky, as qemu guest agent detects aliases created by both.

We're parsing memballoon status period as unsigned int, but when we're
trying to set it, both we and qemu use signed int. That means large
values will get wrapped around to negative one resulting in error.
Basically the same problem as commit e3a7b874 was dealing with when
updating live domain.
QEMU changed the accepted value to int64 in commit 1f9296b5, but even
values as INT_MAX don't make sense since the value passed means seconds.
Hence adding capability flag for this change isn't worth it.

Patch 51f9f03a4c introduces a regression
where if a blockCommit operation fails the disk is still marked as being
part of a block job but can't be unmarked later.
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...
During his review of the iothreads pin setting code, Pavel noted that
there was a potential memory leak with respect to how the newVcpuPin
is handled and the goto endjob's in failure paths which would not free
the memory. For reference, See:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-March/msg00415.html
The memory sizes in qemu are aligned up to 1 MiB boundaries. There are
two places where this was done once for the total size and then for
individual NUMA cell sizes.
Add a function that will align the sizes in one place so that it's clear
where the sizes are aligned.
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.
Surprisingly we did not grab a VM job when a block job finished and we'd
happily rewrite the backing chain data. This made it possible to crash
libvirt when queueing two backing chains tightly and other badness.
To fix it, add yet another handler to the helper thread that handles
monitor events that require a job.
We interpret port values as signed int (convert them from char *),
so if a negative value is provided in network disk's configuration,
we accept it as valid, however there's an 'unknown cause' error raised later.
This error is only accidental because we return the port value in the return code.
This patch adds just a minor tweak to the already existing check so we
reject negative values the same way as we reject non-numerical strings.

A helper that never returns an error and treats bits out of bitmap range
as false.
Use it everywhere we use ignore_value on virBitmapGetBit, or loop over
the bitmap size.
Now that qemuDomainBlocksStatsGather provides functions of both
qemuMonitorGetBlockStatsParamsNumber and qemuMonitorGetBlockStatsInfo we
can reuse it and kill a lot of code.
Additionally as a bonus qemuDomainBlockStatsFlags will now support
summary statistics so add a statement to the virsh man page about that.
Resolves: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1142636
In the LXC driver, if the disk path is not provided the API returns
total statistics for all disks of the domain. With the new text monitor
implementation this can be now done in the qemu driver too.
Add code that wil total the stats for all disks if the path is not
provided.
Extract the code to look up the disk alias and return the block stats
struct so that it can be reused later in qemuDomainBlockStatsFlags.
The function uses qemuMonitorGetAllBlockStatsInfo instead of
qemuMonitorGetBlockStatsInfo.
Our virDomainBlockStatsFlags API uses the old approach where, when it's
called without the typed parameter array, returns the count of parameters
supported by qemu.
The supported parameter count is obtained via separate monitor calls
which is a waste since we can calculate it when gathering the data.
This patch adds code to the qemuMonitorGetAllBlockStatsInfo workers that
allows to track the count of supported fields reported by qemu and will
allow to remove the old duplicate code.
The function that is extracting block stats data from the QMP monitor
reply contains a lot of repeated code. Since I'd be changing each of the
copies in the next patch, lets convert it to a macro right away.
Add a different version of parser for "info blockstats" that basically
parses the same information as the existing copy of the function.
This will allow us to remove the single device version
qemuMonitorGetBlockStatsInfo in the future.
The new implementation uses few new helpers so it should be more
understandable and provides a test case to verify that it works.
Allocate the hash table in the monitor wrapper function instead of the
worker itself so that the text monitor impl that will be added in the
next patch doesn't have to duplicate it.
Error messages are already set in all code paths returning -1 from
networkGetNetworkAddress, so we don't want to overwrite them.

Commit 4bbe1029f fixed a problem in commit f7afeddc by moving the call
to virNetDevGetIndex() to a location common to all interface types (so
that the nicindex array would be filled in for macvtap as well as tap
interfaces), but the location was *too* common, as the original call
to virNetDevGetIndex() had been in a section qualified by "if
(cfg->privileged)". The result was that the "fixed" libvirtd would try
to call virNetDevGetIndex() even for session mode libvirtd, and end up
failing with the log message:
Unable to open control socket: Operation not permitted

There was a mess in the way how we store unlimited value for memory
limits and how we handled values provided by user. Internally there
were two possible ways how to store unlimited value: as 0 value or as
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED. Because we chose to store memory
limits as unsigned long long, we cannot use -1 to represent unlimited.
It's much easier for us to say that everything greater than
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED means unlimited and leave 0 as valid
value despite that it makes no sense to set limit to 0.
Remove unnecessary function virCompareLimitUlong. The update of test
is to prevent the 0 to be miss-used as unlimited in future.

Previously when a domain would get stuck in a domain job due to a
programming mistake we'd report the following control state:
$ virsh domcontrol domain
occupied (1424343406.150s)
The timestamp is invalid as the monitor was not entered for that domain.
We can use that to detect that the domain has an active job and report a
better error instead:
$ virsh domcontrol domain

So, libvirt uses pid file to track pid of started qemus. Whenever
a domain is started, its pid is put into corresponding pid file.
The pid file path is generated based on domain name and stored
into domain object internals. However, it's not stored in the
status XML and therefore lost on daemon restarts. Hence, later,
when domain is being shut down, the daemon does not know which
pid file to unlink, and the correct pid file is left behind. To
avoid this, lets generate the pid file path again in
qemuProcessReconnect().

This patch resolves a situation where the same "<target dev='$name'...>"
can be used for multiple disks in the domain.
While the $name is "mostly" advisory regarding the expected order that
the disk is added to the domain and not guaranteed to map to the device
name in the guest OS, it still should be unique enough such that other
domblk* type operations can be performed.
Without the patch, the domblklist will list the same Target twice:
$ virsh domblklist $dom
Target Source
------------------------------------------------
sda /var/lib/libvirt/images/file.qcow2
sda /var/lib/libvirt/images/file.img
Additionally, getting domblkstat, domblkerror, domblkinfo, and other block*
type calls will not be able to reference the second target.
Fortunately, hotplug disallows adding a "third" sda value:
$ qemu-img create -f raw /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img 10M
$ virsh attach-disk $dom /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img sda
error: Failed to attach disk
error: operation failed: target sda already exists
$
BUT, it since 'sdb' doesn't exist one would get the following on the same
hotplug attempt, but changing to use 'sdb' instead of 'sda'
$ virsh attach-disk $dom /var/lib/libvirt/images/file2.img sdb
error: Failed to attach disk
error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'device_add': Duplicate ID 'scsi0-0-1' for device
$
Since we cannot fix this issue at parsing time, the best that can be done so
as to not "lose" a domain is to make the check prior to starting the guest
with the results as follows:
$ virsh start $dom
error: Failed to start domain $dom
error: XML error: target 'sda' duplicated for disk sources '/var/lib/libvirt/images/file.qcow2' and '/var/lib/libvirt/images/file.img'
$
Running 'make check' found a few more instances in the tests where this
duplicated target dev value was being used. These also exhibited some
duplicated 'id=' values (negating the uniqueness argument of aliases) in
the corresponding .args file and of course the *xmlout version of a few
input XML files.
NUMA enabled guest configuration explicitly specifies memory sizes for
individual nodes. Allowing the virDomainSetMemoryFlags API (and friends)
to change the total doesn't make sense as the individual node configs
are not updated in that case.
Forbid use of the API in case NUMA is specified.
If we combine the boot order on the command line with other
boot options, we prepend order= in front of it.
Instead of checking if the number of added arguments is between
0 and 2, separate the strings for boot order and options
and prepend boot order only if both strings are not empty.
Commit f7afeddc added code to report to systemd an array of interface
indexes for all tap devices used by a guest. Unfortunately it not only
didn't add code to report the ifindexes for macvtap interfaces
(interface type='direct') or the tap devices used by type='ethernet',
it ended up sending "-1" as the ifindex for each macvtap or hostdev
interface. This resulted in a failure to start any domain that had a
macvtap or hostdev interface (or actually any type other than
"network" or "bridge").
This patch does the following with the nicindexes array:
1) Modify qemuBuildInterfaceCommandLine() to only fill in the
nicindexes array if given a non-NULL pointer to an array (and modifies
the test jig calls to the function to send NULL). This is because
there are tests in the test suite that have type='ethernet' and still
have an ifname specified, but that device of course doesn't actually
exist on the test system, so attempts to call virNetDevGetIndex() will
fail.
2) Even then, only add an entry to the nicindexes array for
appropriate types, and to do so for all appropriate types ("network",
"bridge", and "direct"), but only if the ifname is known (since that
is required to call virNetDevGetIndex().
libvirt was unconditionally calling virNetDevBandwidthClear() for
every interface (and network bridge) of a type that supported
bandwidth, whether it actually had anything set or not. This doesn't
hurt anything (unless ifname == NULL!), but is wasteful.
This patch makes sure that all calls to virNetDevBandwidthClear() are
qualified by checking that the interface really had some bandwidth
setup done, and checks for a null ifname inside
virNetDevBandwidthClear(), silently returning success if it is null
(as well as removing the ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL from that function's
prototype, since we can't guarantee that it is never null,
e.g. sometimes a type='ethernet' interface has no ifname as it is
provided on the fly by qemu).
If the qemu binary on x86 does not support lsi SCSI controller,
but it supports virtio-scsi, we reject the virtio-specific attributes
for no reason.
Move the default controller assignment before the check.

Soo. you've successfully started yourself a domain. And since you want
to use it on your host exclusively you are confident enough to
passthrough the host CPU model, like this:
<cpu mode='host-passthrough'/>
Then, after a while, you want to save the domain into a file (e.g.
virsh save dom dom.save). And here comes the trouble. The file consist
of two parts: Libvirt header (containing domain XML among other
things), and qemu migration data. Now, the domain XML in the header is
formatted using special flags (VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE |
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU | VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE |
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE).
Then, on your way back from the bar, you think of changing something
in the XML in the saved file (we have a command for it after all), say
listen address for graphics console. So you successfully type in the
command:
virsh save-image-edit dom.save
Change all the bits, and exit the editor. But instead of success
you're left with sad error message:
error: unsupported configuration: Target CPU model <null> does not
match source Pentium Pro
Sigh. Digging into the code you see lines, where we check for ABI
stability. The new XML you've produced is compared with the old one
from the saved file to see if qemu ABI will break or not. Wait, what?
We are using different flags to parse the XML you've provided so we
were just lucky it worked in some cases? Yep, that's right.

For historical reasons data regarding NUMA configuration were split
between the CPU definition and numatune. We cannot do anything about the
XML still being split, but we certainly can at least store the relevant
data in one place.
This patch moves the NUMA stuff to the right place.
As virDomainNumatuneSet now doesn't allocate the virDomainNuma object
any longer it's not necessary to pass the pointer to a pointer to store
the object as it will not change any longer.
While touching the parameter definitions I've also changed the name of
the parameter to "numa".
Name it virNumaMemAccess and add it to conf/numa_conf.[ch]
Note that to avoid a circular dependency the type of the NUMA cell
memAccess variable was changed to int. It will be turned back later
after the circular dependency will not exist.
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.

When migrating with storage, libvirt iterates over domain disks and
instruct qemu to migrate the ones we are interested in (shared, RO and
source-less disks are skipped). The disks are migrated in series. No
new disk is transferred until the previous one hasn't been quiesced.
This is checked on the qemu monitor via 'query-jobs' command. If the
disk has been quiesced, it practically went from copying its content
to mirroring state, where all disk writes are mirrored to the other
side of migration too. Having said that, there's one inherent error in
the design. The monitor command we use reports only active jobs. So if
the job fails for whatever reason, we will not see it anymore in the
command output. And this can happen fairly simply: just try to migrate
a domain with storage. If the storage migration fails (e.g. due to
ENOSPC on the destination) we resume the host on the destination and
let it run on partly copied disk.
The proper fix is what even the comment in the code says: listen for
qemu events instead of polling. If storage migration changes state an
event is emitted and we can act accordingly: either consider disk
copied and continue the process, or consider disk mangled and abort
the migration.

Currently, upon BLOCK_JOB_* event, disk->mirrorState is not updated

disk->mirror (there's nothing we can set it to anyway), or other
fields. But it will come handy if we update the mirrorState in these
cases too. The event wasn't delivered just for fun - we've started the

So, in this commit, the mirrorState is set to whatever job status

chose the best backend, or to check if one is in fact needed. However,
it returned that backend is needed even for this little fella:
<numatune>
<memory mode="strict" nodeset="0,2"/>
</numatune>
This can be guaranteed via CGroups entirely, there's no need to use
memory-backend-ram to let qemu know where to get memory from. Well, as
long as there's no <memnode/> element, which explicitly requires the
backend. Long story short, we wouldn't have to care, as qemu works
either way. However, the problem is migration (as always). Previously,
libvirt would have started qemu with:
-numa node,memory=X
in this case and restricted memory placement in CGroups. Today, libvirt
creates more complicated command line:
-object memory-backend-ram,id=ram-node0,size=X
-numa node,memdev=ram-node0
Again, one wouldn't find anything wrong with these two approaches.
Both work just fine. Unless you try to migrated from the older libvirt
into the newer one. These two approaches are, unfortunately, not
compatible. My suggestion is, in order to allow users to migrate, lets
use the older approach for as long as the newer one is not needed.

We do have a check for valid per-domain security model, however we still
do permit an invalid security model for a domain's device (those which
are specified with <source> element).
This patch introduces a new function virSecurityManagerCheckAllLabel
which compares user specified security model against currently
registered security drivers. That being said, it also permits 'none'
being specified as a device security model.
