When a user does not explicitly set a <driver> in the disk config,
libvirt defers selection of a default to libxl. This approach works
fine when starting a domain with such configuration or attaching a
disk to a running domain. But when detaching such a disk, libxl
will fail with "unrecognized disk backend type: 0". libxl makes no
attempt to recalculate a default backend (driver) on detach and
simply fails when uninitialized.
This patch updates the libvirt disk config with the backend selected
by libxl when starting a domain or attaching a disk to a running
domain. Another benefit of this approach is that the live XML is
also updated with the backend driver selected by libxl.
When starting a domian, a libxl_domain_config object is created from
virDomainDef. Any virDomainDiskDef devices with a format of
VIR_STORAGE_FILE_NONE are mapped to LIBXL_DISK_FORMAT_RAW in the
corresponding libxl_disk_device, but the virDomainDiskDef format is
never updated to reflect the change.
A better place to set a default format for disk devices is the
device post-parse callback, ensuring the virDomainDiskDef object
reflects the default format.
xen.git commit 57f8b13c changed several of the libxl memory
get/set functions to take 64 bit parameters. The libvirt
libxl driver still uses uint32_t variables for these various
parameters, which is particularly problematic for the
libxl_set_memory_target() function.
When dom0 autoballooning is enabled, libvirt (like xl) determines
the memory needed to start a domain and the memory available. If
memory available is less than memory needed, dom0 is ballooned
down by passing a negative value to libxl_set_memory_target()
'target_memkb' parameter. Prior to xen.git commit 57f8b13c,
'target_memkb' was an int32_t. Subtracting a larger uint32 from
a smaller uint32 and assigning it to int32 resulted in a negative
number. After commit 57f8b13c, the same subtraction is widened
to a int64, resulting in a large positive number. The simple
fix taken by this patch is to assign the difference of the
uint32 values to a temporary int32 variable, which is then
passed to 'target_memkb' parameter of libxl_set_memory_target().
Note that it is undesirable to change libvirt to use 64 bit
variables since it requires setting LIBXL_API_VERSION to 0x040800.
Currently libvirt supports LIBXL_API_VERSION >= 0x040400,
essentially Xen >= 4.4.
For HVM domains, pae is only set in libxl_domain_build_info when
explicitly specified in the hypervisor <features> config. This is
fine for i686 machines, but is incorrect behavior for x86_64 machines
where pae must always be enabled. See the following discussion for
additional details

libxl doesn't provide a way to write one log for each domain. Thus
we need to demux the messages. If our logger doesn't know to which
domain to attribute a message, then it will write it to the default

Starting with Xen 4.9 (commit f9858025 and following), libxl will
write the domain ID in an easy to grab manner. The logger introduced
by this commit will use it to demux the libxl log messages.
Thanks to the default log file, this logger will also work with older
versions of Xen.

And allow libxl to handle channel element which creates a Xen
console visible to the guest as a low-bandwitdh communication
channel. If type is PTY we also fetch the tty after boot using
libxl_channel_getinfo to fetch the tty path. On socket case,
we autogenerate a path if not specified in the XML. Path autogenerated
is slightly different from qemu driver: qemu stores also on
"channels/target" but it creates then a directory per domain with
each channel target name. libxl doesn't appear to have a clear
definition of private files associated with each domain, so for
simplicity we do it slightly different. On qemu each autogenerated
channel goes like:
channels/target/<domain-name>/<target name>
Whereas for libxl:
channels/target/<domain-name>-<target name>
Should note that if path is not specified it won't persist,
existing only on live XML, unless user had initially specified it.
Since support for libxl channels only came on Xen >= 4.5 we therefore
need to conditionally compile it with LIBXL_HAVE_DEVICE_CHANNEL.

libxl events are delivered to libvirt via the libxlDomainEventHandler
callback registered with libxl. Documenation in
$xensrc/tools/libxl/libxl_event.h states that the callback "may occur
on any thread in which the application calls libxl". This can result
in deadlock since many of the libvirt callees of libxl hold a lock on
the virDomainObj they are working on. When the callback is invoked, it
attempts to find a virDomainObj corresponding to the domain ID provided
by libxl. Searching the domain obj list results in locking each obj
before checking if it is active, and its ID equals the requested ID.
Deadlock is possible when attempting to lock an obj that is already
locked further up the call stack. Indeed, Max Ustermann reported an

Xen 4.6 introduced a new migration stream commonly referred to as
"migration V2". Xen 4.6 and newer always produce this new stream,
whereas Xen 4.5 and older always produce the legacy stream.
Support for migration stream V2 can be detected at build time with
LIBXL_HAVE_SRM_V2 from libxl.h. The legacy and V2 streams are not
compatible, but a V2 host can accept and convert a legacy stream.
Commit e7440656 changed the libxl driver to use the lowest libxl
API version possible (version 0x040200) to ensure the driver
builds against older Xen releases. The old 4.2 restore API does
not support specifying a stream version and assumes a legacy
stream, even if the incoming stream is migration V2. Thinking it
has been given a legacy stream, libxl will fail to convert an
incoming stream that is already V2, which causes the entire
restore operation to fail. Xen's libvirt-related OSSTest has been
failing since commit e7440656 landed in libvirt.git master. One
of the more recent failures can be seen here
http://lists.xenproject.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2016-05/msg00071.html
This patch changes the call to libxl_domain_create_restore() to
include the stream version if LIBXL_HAVE_SRM_V2 is defined. The
version field of the libxlSavefileHeader struct is also updated
to '2' when LIBXL_HAVE_SRM_V2 is defined, ensuring the stream
version in the header matches the actual stream version produced
by Xen. Along with bumping the libxl API requirement to 0x040400,
this patch fixes save/restore on a migration V2 Xen host.
Oddly, migration has never used the libxlSavefileHeader. It
handles passing configuration in the Begin and Prepare phases,
and then calls libxl directly to transfer domain state/memory
in the Perform phase. A subsequent patch will add stream
version handling in the Begin and Prepare phase handshaking,
which will fix the migration related OSSTest failures.

The current code was a little bit odd. At first we've removed all
possible implicit input devices from domain definition to add them later
back if there was any graphics device defined while parsing XML
description. That's not all, while formating domain definition to XML
description we at first ignore any input devices with bus different to
USB and VIRTIO and few lines later we add implicit input devices to XML.
This seems to me as a lot of code for nothing. This patch may look
to be more complicated than original approach, but this is a preferred
way to modify/add driver specific stuff only in those drivers and not
deal with them in common parsing/formating functions.
The update is to add those implicit input devices into config XML to
follow the real HW configuration visible by guest OS.
There was also inconsistence between our behavior and QEMU's in the way,
that in QEMU there is no way how to disable those implicit input devices
for x86 architecture and they are available always, even without graphics
device. This applies also to XEN hypervisor. VZ driver already does its

This reverts commit d2e5538b16.
A migration regression was introduced by this commit. When migrating
a domain, its active XML is sent to the destination libvirtd, where
it is parsed as inactive XML. d2e5538b copied the libxl generated
interface name into the active config, which was being passed to the
migration destination and being parsed into inactive config. Attempting
to start the config could result in failure if an interface with the
same generated name already exists.
The qemu driver behaves similarly, but the parser contains a hack to
skip interface names starting with 'vnet' when parsing inactive XML.
We could extend the hack to skip names starting with 'vif' too, but a
better fix would be to expose these hypervisor-specific interface name
prefixes in capabilities. See the following discussion thread for more
details

If vm->def->cputune.nvcpupin is 0 in libxlDomainSetVcpuAffinities (as

Fix this by using libxl_bitmap_init and libxl_bitmap_dispose in the
appropriate places (like VIR_FREE, libxl_bitmap_dispose is also
idempotent, so there is no double free on exit from the loop).
libxl_bitmap_dispose is slightly preferable since it also sets
map.size back to 0, avoiding a potential source of confusion.

Recent testing on large memory systems revealed a bug in the Xen xl
tool's freemem() function. When autoballooning is enabled, freemem()
is used to ensure enough memory is available to start a domain,
ballooning dom0 if necessary. When ballooning large amounts of memory
from dom0, freemem() would exceed its self-imposed wait time and
return an error. Meanwhile, dom0 continued to balloon. Starting the
domain later, after sufficient memory was ballooned from dom0, would
succeed. The libvirt implementation in libxlDomainFreeMem() suffers
the same bug since it is modeled after freemem().
In the end, the best place to fix the bug on the Xen side was to
slightly change the behavior of libxl_wait_for_memory_target().
Instead of failing after caller-provided wait_sec, the function now
blocks as long as dom0 memory ballooning is progressing. It will return
failure only when more memory is needed to reach the target and wait_sec
have expired with no progress being made. See xen.git commit fd3aa246.
There was a dicussion on how this would affect other libxl apps like
libvirt
http://lists.xen.org/archives/html/xen-devel/2015-03/msg00739.html
If libvirt containing this patch was build against a Xen containing
the old libxl_wait_for_memory_target() behavior, libxlDomainFreeMem()
will fail after 30 sec and domain creation will be terminated.
Without this patch and with old libxl_wait_for_memory_target() behavior,
libxlDomainFreeMem() does not succeed after 30 sec, but returns success
anyway. Domain creation continues resulting in all sorts of fun stuff
like cpu soft lockups in the guest OS. It was decided to properly fix
libxl_wait_for_memory_target(), and if anything improve the default
behavior of apps using the freemem reference impl in xl.
xl was patched to accommodate the change in libxl_wait_for_memory_target()
with xen.git commit 883b30a0. This patch does the same in the libxl
driver. While at it, I changed the logic to essentially match
freemem() in $xensrc/tools/libxl/xl_cmdimpl.c. It was a bit cleaner
IMO and will make it easier to spot future, potentially interesting
divergences.
Although needed in the Xen 4.1 libxl days, there is no longer any
benefit to having per-domain libxl_ctx. On the contrary, their use
makes the code unecessarily complicated and prone to deadlocks under
load. As suggested by the libxl maintainers, use a single libxl_ctx
as a handle to libxl instead of per-domain ctx's.
One downside to using a single libxl_ctx is there are no longer
per-domain log files for log messages emitted by libxl. Messages
for all domains will be sent to /var/log/libvirt/libxl/libxl-driver.log.

libxlDomainFreeMem() is only used in libxl_domain.c and thus should
be declared static. While at it, change the signature to take a
libxl_ctx instead of libxlDomainObjPrivatePtr, since only the
libxl_ctx is needed.

Informing libxl how to handle its child proceses should be done once
during driver initialization, not once for each domain-specific
libxl_ctx object. The related libxl documentation in
$xen-src/tools/libxl/libxl_event.h even mentions that "it is best to
call this at initialisation".

Long ago I incorrectly associated libxl fd and timer registrations
with per-domain libxl_ctx objects. When creating a libxlDomainObjPrivate,
a libxl_ctx is allocated, and libxl_osevent_register_hooks is called
passing a pointer to the libxlDomainObjPrivate. When an fd or timer
registration occurred, the registration callback received the
libxlDomainObjPrivate, containing the per-domain libxl_ctx. This
libxl_ctx was then used when informing libxl about fd events or
timer expirations.
The problem with this approach is that fd and timer registrations do not
share the same lifespan as libxlDomainObjPrivate, and hence the per-domain
libxl_ctx ojects. The result is races between per-domain libxl_ctx's being
destoryed and events firing on associated fds/timers, typically manifesting
as an assert in libxl
libxl_internal.h:2788: libxl__ctx_unlock: Assertion `!r' failed
There is no need to associate libxlDomainObjPrivate objects with libxl's
desire to use libvirt's event loop. Instead, the driver-wide libxl_ctx can
be used for the fd and timer registrations.
This patch moves the fd and timer handling code away from the
domain-specific code in libxl_domain.c into libxl_driver.c. While at it,
function names were changed a bit to better describe their purpose.
The unnecessary locking was also removed since the code simply provides a
wrapper over the event loop interface. Indeed the locks may have been
causing some deadlocks when repeatedly creating/destroying muliple domains.
There have also been rumors about such deadlocks during parallel OpenStack
Tempest runs.

This patch adds code that parses and formats configuration for memory
devices.
A simple configuration would be:
<memory model='dimm'>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>0</node>
</target>
</memory>
A complete configuration of a memory device:
<memory model='dimm'>
<source>
<pagesize unit='KiB'>4096</pagesize>
<nodemask>1-3</nodemask>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>1</node>
</target>
</memory>
This patch preemptively forbids use of the <memory> device in individual
drivers so the users are warned right away that the device is not
supported.
Add a XML element that will allow to specify maximum supportable memory
and the count of memory slots to use with memory hotplug.
To avoid possible confusion and misuse of the new element this patch
also explicitly forbids the use of the maxMemory setting in individual
drivers's post parse callbacks. This limitation will be lifted when the
support is implemented.
With the current control flow the post parse callback returned success
right away for fully virtualized VMs. To allow adding additional checks
into the post parse callback tweak the conditions so that the function
doesn't return early except for error cases.
To clarify the original piece of code borrow the wording from the commit
message for the patch that introduced the code.
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.
Domain death watch is already disabled in libxlDomainCleanup. No
need to disable it a second and third time.

Periodically my Coverity scan will return a checked_return failure
for libxlDomainShutdownThread call to libxlDomainStart. Followed the
libxlAutostartDomain example in order to check the status, emit a
message, and continue on.
Do not silently ignore its value. LibXL support only one address, so
refuse multiple IPs.

The path to the pty of a Xen PV console is set only in
virDomainOpenConsole. But this is done too late. A call to
virDomainGetXMLDesc done before OpenConsole will not have the path to
the pty, but a call after OpenConsole will.
e.g. of the current issue.
Starting a domain with '<console type="pty"/>'
Then:
virDomainGetXMLDesc():
<devices>
<console type='pty'>
<target type='xen' port='0'/>
</console>
</devices>
virDomainOpenConsole()
virDomainGetXMLDesc():
<devices>
<console type='pty' tty='/dev/pts/30'>
<source path='/dev/pts/30'/>
<target type='xen' port='0'/>
</console>
</devices>
The patch intend to have the TTY path on the first call of GetXMLDesc.
This is done by setting up the path at domain start up instead of in
OpenConsole.

The virDomainDefParse* and virDomainDefFormat* methods both
accept the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags defined in the public API,
along with a set of other VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags
defined in domain_conf.c.
This is seriously confusing & error prone for a number of
reasons:
- VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE and
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU are only relevant for the
formatting operation
- Some of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags only apply
to parse or to format, but not both.
This patch cleanly separates out the flags. There are two
distint VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_* and VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_*
flags that are used by the corresponding methods. The
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags received via public API calls must
be converted to the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags where
needed.
The various calls to virDomainDefParse which hardcoded the
use of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE flag change to use the
VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_INACTIVE flag.
This started as an investigation into an issue where libvirt (using the
libxl driver) and the Xen host, like an old couple, could not agree on
who is responsible for selecting the VNC port to use.
Things usually (and a bit surprisingly) did work because, just like that
old couple, they had the same idea on what to do by default. However it
was possible that this ended up in a big argument.
The problem is that display information exists in two different places:
in the vfbs list and in the build info. And for launching the device model,
only the latter is used. But that never gets initialized from libvirt. So
Xen allows the device model to select a default port while libvirt thinks
it has told Xen that this is done by libvirt (though the vfbs config).
While fixing that, I made a stab at actually evaluating the configuration
of the video device. So that it is now possible to at least decide between
a Cirrus or standard VGA emulation and to modify the VRAM within certain
limits using libvirt.
