7b7cb1ecc9 deprecate fclose() and introduce VIR_{FORCE_}FCLOSE()
Similarly to deprecating close(), I am now deprecating fclose() and
introduce VIR_FORCE_FCLOSE() and VIR_FCLOSE(). Also, fdopen() is replaced with
VIR_FDOPEN().

Most of the files are opened in read-only mode, so usage of
VIR_FORCE_CLOSE() seemed appropriate. Others that are opened in write
mode already had the fclose()<  0 check and I converted those to
VIR_FCLOSE()<  0.

I did not find occurrences of possible double-closed files on the way.

7665440956 Do a better job of validating IP and MAC addresses in network.rng
IP addresses and MAC addresses had been defined in the RNG simply as
<text/> meaning that, according to the RNG, any string could go in
there. Of course the C parsing code does a much better job of
validating, but we may as well have this describing the contents
accurately (even though it's currently only used during "make check").

3d10d3489b Put network.rng contents inside <grammar> for uniformity with other RNGs
All the other RNG files in libvirt are enclosed within <grammar>. This
commit makes the syntactical changes necessary to make network.rng fit
that pattern. (This is the first step in adding some data type
definitions to network.rng for more exact validation of IP and MAC
addresses).

Formatting changes (indentation) will be done in a subsequent commit,
so that actual changes to the code won't be obscured by whitespace.

b0ef5c5367 Support SPICE channel security options
This extends the SPICE XML to allow channel security options

      <channel name='main' mode='secure'/>
      <channel name='record' mode='insecure'/>
    </graphics>

Any non-specified channel uses the default, which allows both
secure & insecure usage

This is the bare minimum that should be exposed in the guest
config for SPICE. Other parameters are better handled as per
host level configuration tunables

a74f4e4464 vcpu: add current attribute to <vcpu> element
Syntax agreed on in
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2010-September/msg00476.html

to the boot-time max of y vcpus.  If current is omitted, then
current and max are assumed to be the same value.

f04de501bc Introduce VIR_CLOSE to be used rather than close()
Since bugs due to double-closed file descriptors are difficult to track down in a multi-threaded system, I am introducing the VIR_CLOSE(fd) macro to help avoid mistakes here.

There are lots of places where close() is being used. In this patch I am only cleaning up usage of close() in src/conf where the problems were.

I also dare to declare close() as being deprecated in libvirt code base (HACKING).

75a6a9a8e0 new attribute accessmode to filesystem element
This introduces new attribute to filesystem element
to support customizable access mode for mount type.
Valid accessmode are: passthrough, mapped and squash.

Usage:
        <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'>
          <source dir='/export/to/guest'/>
          <target dir='mount_tag'/>
        </filesystem>

passthrough is the default model if not specified, that's
also the current behaviour.

81e329eb1b mac os x: use awk selected by build system rather than first in path
Prior to this patch, the ChangeLog generation was hard coded to use
"awk", when it should have been using the AWK variable set by our
build system.

This breaks compilation on a newly installed OS X system, where the
default path has the Mac (non GNU) awk in the default search PATH
before any installed GNU awk (gawk).

b9c10268e1 Add actions to virDomainLifecycle enum
Xen supports on_crash actions coredump-{destroy,restart}.  libvirt
cannot parse config returned by xend that contains either of these
actions

xen52 # xm li -l test | grep on_crash
    (on_crash coredump-restart)
xen52 # virsh dumpxml test
error: internal error unknown lifecycle type coredump-restart

This patch adds a new virDomainLifecycleCrash enum and appends
the new options to existing destroy, restart, preserve, and
rename-restart options.

20be699ee3 storage: add support for Vendor and Model in XML

79c27a620a allow memballoon type of none to desactivate it
The balloon device is automatically added to qemu guests if supported,
but it may be useful to desactivate it. The simplest to not change the
existing behaviour is to allow
  <memballoon type="none"/>
as an extra option to desactivate it (it is automatically added if the
memballoon construct is missing for the domain).
The following simple patch just adds the extra option and does not
change the default behaviour but avoid creating a balloon device if
type="none" is used.

* docs/schemas/domain.rng: add the extra type attribute value
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the extra enum
  value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: if enum is NONE, don't activate the device,
  i.e. don't pass the args to qemu/kvm

e4938ce2f1 esx: Restrict vpx:// to handle a single host in a vCenter
Now a vpx:// connection has an explicitly specified host. This
allows to enabled several functions for a vpx:// connection
again, like host UUID, hostname, general node info, max vCPU
count, free memory, migration and defining new domains.

Lookup datacenter, compute resource, resource pool and host
system once and cache them. This simplifies the rest of the
code and reduces overall HTTP(S) traffic a bit.

esx:// and vpx:// can be mixed freely for a migration.

Ensure that migration source and destination refer to the
same vCenter. Also directly encode the resource pool and
host system object IDs into the migration URI in the prepare
function. Then directly build managed object references in
the perform function instead of re-looking up already known
information.

6b24755235 domain conf: Track <console> target type
All <console> devices now export a <target> type attribute. QEMU defaults
to 'serial', UML defaults to 'uml, xen can be either 'serial' or 'xen'
depending on fullvirt. Understandably there is lots of test fallout.

This will be used to differentiate between a serial vs. virtio console for
QEMU.

4f24ca01e8 qemu: Allow setting boot menu on/off
Add a new element to the <os> block:

  <bootmenu enable="yes|no"/>

Which maps to -boot,menu=on|off on the QEMU command line.

I decided to use an explicit 'enable' attribute rather than just make the
bootmenu element boolean. This allows us to treat lack of a bootmenu element
as 'use hypervisor default'.

3827f7f087 esx: Add vpx:// scheme to allow direct connection to a vCenter
Add a pointer to the primary context of a connection and use it in all
driver functions that don't dependent on the context type. This includes
almost all functions that deal with a virDomianPtr. Therefore, using
a vpx:// connection allows you to perform all the usual domain related
actions like start, destroy, suspend, resume, dumpxml etc.

Some functions that require an explicitly specified ESX server don't work
yet. This includes the host UUID, the hostname, the general node info, the
max vCPU count and the free memory. Also not working yet are migration and
defining new domains.

Thanks to DV for knocking together the Relax-NG changes
quickly for me.

Changes since v1:
 - Change the domain.rng to correspond to the new schema
 - Don't allocate caps->ns in testQemuCapsInit since it is a static table

Changes since v2:
 - Change domain.rng to add restrictions on allowed environment names

Changes since v3:
 - Remove a bogus comment in the tests

b2f1863533 Explicitly represent balloon device in XML and handle PCI address
To allow compatibility with older QEMU PCI device slot assignment
it is necessary to explicitly track the balloon device in the
XML. This introduces a new device

   <memballoon model='virtio|xen'/>

It can also have a PCI address, auto-assigned if necessary.

The memballoon will be automatically added to all Xen and QEMU
guests by default.

* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add <memballoon> element
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: parsing
  and formatting for memballoon device. Always add a memory
  balloon device to Xen/QEMU if none exists in XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export memballoon model APIs
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Honour the
  PCI device address in memory balloon device
* tests/*: Update to test new functionality
