The migration parameter causes zero detection to be enabled and zero
blocks are *not* transferred to the destination. This means that users
must provide pre-cleared images that read all zero, otherwise the
non-zero blocks on destination which reside in places where the source
has zero blocks would be kept intact corrupting the image.
As not transferring and overwriting the zero blocks is what the feature
is supposed to do the users need to provide the proper environment.
Document the requirement, both in API and in the virsh man page for the
'--migrate-disks-detect-zeroes' option.

The virt-pki-validate command can validate the system certificate
directories. The remote driver, however, also supports a standard

The virt-pki-validate tool is currently a shell script. We have a
general goal of eliminating use of shell in the project. By doing a
new implementation in C, we can also make use of our more thorough
sanity checking code to validate the certificate setup.
This new implementation the same output format as the host validation
tool for a more consistent user experiance.
It also eliminates the requirement to have certtool installed on
libvirt hosts, which has been an issue for Fedora flatpak packages
since certtool isn't in the default platform runtime.

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.
Case 1: PERSISTENT_ONLY=default
| persistent | transient
shutdown | shutdown | shutdown
suspend | suspend | nothing
Case 2: PERSISTENT_ONLY=true
| persistent | transient
shutdown | shutdown | nothing
suspend | suspend | nothing
Case 3: PERSISTENT_ONLY=false
| persistent | transient
shutdown | shutdown | shutdown
suspend | suspend | suspend

The VMSA files contain the expected CPU register state for the VM. Their
content varies based on a few pieces of the stack
- AMD CPU architectural initial state
- KVM hypervisor VM CPU initialization
- QEMU userspace VM CPU initialization
- AMD CPU SKU (family/model/stepping)
The first three pieces of information we can obtain through code
inspection. The last piece of information we can take on the command
line. This allows a user to validate a SEV-ES guest merely by providing
the CPU SKU information, using --cpu-family, --cpu-model,
--cpu-stepping. This avoids the need to obtain or construct VMSA files
directly.
