In order to learn what types of <launchSecurity/> are supported
users can turn to domain capabilities and find <sev/> and
<s390-pv/> elements. While these may expose some additional info
on individual launchSecurity types, we are lacking clean
enumeration (like we do for say device models). And given that
SEV and SEV SNP share the same basis (info found under <sev/> is
applicable to SEV SNP too) we have no other way to report SEV SNP
support.
Therefore, report supported launchSecurity types in domain

There are PCI devices with pretty large non-prefetchable memory,

Memory at 9d800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=8M]
Memory at a6800000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K]
For cold plugged devices this is not a problem, because firmware
sets PCI controllers in a way that make devices behind them just
work. Problem arises if such PCI device is to be hot plugged.
Since the PCI device wasn't present at cold boot, firmware could
not take it into calculations and the amount of reserved memory
is not sufficient.
Introduce a know that allows users overriding value computed by

At the moment, there is no configuration option for the libvirt-guests
service that allows users to define that only persistent virtual machines
should be shutdown on host shutdown.
Currently, the service config allows to choose between two ON_SHUTDOWN
actions that are executed on running virtual machines when the host goes
down: shutdown, suspend.
The ON_SHUTDOWN action should be orthogonal to the type of the virtual
machine. However, the existing implementation, does not suspend
transient virtual machines.
This is the matrix of actions that is executed on virtual machines based
on the configured ON_SHUTDOWN action and the type of a virtual machine.
| persistent | transient
shutdown | shutdown | shutdown (what we want to change)
suspend | suspend | nothing
Add config option PERSISTENT_ONLY to libvirt-guests config that allows
users to define if the ON_SHUTDOWN action should be applied only on
persistent virtual machines. PERSISTENT_ONLY can be set to true, false,
default. The default option will implement the already existing logic.

I've seen examples in the wild of the cluster attribute having
non-zero value on x86_64.
This is obviously quite confusing, but it's the information that
Linux exposes to userspace and we don't really have a way to tell
apart a valid die/cluster ID from a dummy one.
What ultimately matters is that the underlying assumptions about
topology are respected, which they are: in the x86_64 cases that
I have analyzed, for example, each "cluster" contained exactly
one core, so any program that would use this information to
influence guest topology decisions would be unaffected by the
additional level showing up in the hierarchy.
In an attempt to reduce confusion, remove any reference to any
specific value for the attributes having any special meaning
attached to it.
In fact, since there are plans to make it possible to create
guests with multiple CPU clusters on x86_64, rework the note
into a more generic warning cautioning users that an attribute
showing up here does not imply that the same attribute can be
used when defining a guest CPU topology.

The long-deprecated use of <driver name='vfio|xen|kvm'/> in domain xml
for <hostdev> devices was only ever necessary during the period when
libvirt (and the Linux kernel) supported both VFIO and "legacy KVM"
styles of hostdev device assignment for QEMU. This became pointless
many years ago when legacy KVM device assignment was removed from the
kernel, and support for that style of device assignment was completely
disabled in the libvirt source in 2019 (commit
v5.6.0-316-g2e7225ea8c).
Nevertheless, there were instances of <driver name='vfio'/> in the
unit test data that were then (unnecessarily) propagated to several
more tests over the years. This patch cleans out those unnecessary
explicit settings of driver name='vfio' in all QEMU unit test data,
proving that the attribute is no longer (externally) needed. (A later
patch which adds a 2nd attribute to the <driver> element will include
a test case that explicitly exercises the driver name attribute).

Given that this variable now controls not just whether C tests
are built, but also whether any test at all is executed, the new
name is more appropriate.
Update the description for the corresponding meson option
accordingly.

Currently, passing -Dtests=disabled only disables a subset of
tests: those that are written in C and thus require compilation.
Other tests, such as the syntax-check ones and those that are
implemented as scripts, are always enabled.
There's a potentially dangerous consequence of this behavior:
when tests are disabled, 'meson test' will succeed as if they
had been enabled. No indication of this will be shown, so the
user will likely make the reasonable assumption that everything
is fine when in fact the significantly reduced coverage might
be hiding failures.
To solve this issues, disable *all* tests when asked to do so,
and inject an intentionally failing test to ensure that 'meson
test' doesn't succeed.
Best viewed with 'git show -w'.

This patch adds the command line flag `--resume` to the `virsh console`
command. This resumes a paused guest after connecting to the console.
This might be handy since it's a "common" pattern to start a guest
paused, connect to the console, and then resume it so as not to miss any
console messages.

Our virBuildPath() constructs a path from given arguments.
Exactly like g_build_filename(), except the latter is more
generic as it uses backslashes on Windows. Therefore, replace the
former with the latter.

Ever since commit 6e9bd600d7 added a new
GitLab job description function handling the integration test suite
process to ci/jobs.sh it should be mentioned in the docs.
This patch splits the 'Run TCK' section in two, giving user the option
to run the integration test suite in their VM environment the same way
as we do in GitLab CI or execute everything manually.
This patch takes the opportunity to also link to the virtiofs kbase
article to give users a different option to get the local libvirt
repositories to be used in testing inside a VM.

It's mentioned in an earlier paragraph that Perl bindings in correct
version are needed, but there's no note about libvirt even though it
should be obvious. So make a clear note on that and while at it, do
mention the possibility to get upstream libvirt RPMs from GitLab CI
artifacts if users don't feel like building everything on their own.

The fact that we need ci/helper script to run the workloads remains
true, but the invocation has changed as of commit
eb41e45630 . We also extracted GitLab job
specs into a standalone ci/jobs.sh script which allows execution of any
container job we run in upstream CI locally, unlike the original
functionality which only allowed builds, tests and shell (although
important to say it could be adjusted with the right meson/ninja args).
lcitool also became mandatory as it enables the container execution
which replaced a Makefile we used to have for this purpose.

While wording is still correct to this day, we have already added more
features to lcitool and documented it properly in its repo. Make sure
that we refer the users to lcitool's doc material for further details
on how VMs can be installed locally.

the '--tap' option (still possible), we can get a nice output from

The actual versioning policy[1] is a bit more nuanced, and in
particular there are scenarios in which the monthly release
is intentionally skipped, but overall it's not inaccurate to
claim that the release cadence of the Go bindings follows the
one of the C library.
