For managed save we can choose between various compression
methods. I randomly tested the 'xz' program on a 8 GB guest
and was surprised to have to wait > 50 minutes for it to
finish compressing, with 'xz' burning 100% cpu for the
entire time. Despite the impressive compression, this is
completely useless in the real world as it is far too long
to wait to save the VM.
The 'xz' binary defaults to '-6' optimization level which
aims for high compression, with moderate memory usage,
at the expense of speed.
This change switches it to use the '-3' optimization level
which is documented as being the one that optimizes speed
at expense of compression. Even with this, it will still
outperform all the other options in terms of compression
level. It is a little less than x4 faster than '-6' which
means it starts to be a viable choice to use 'xz' for
people who really want best compression.
The test results on a 1 GB, fairly freshly booted VM are
as follows
format | save | restore size
=======+=======+=============
raw | 05s | 1s | 428 MB
lzop | 05s | 3s | 160 MB
gzip | 29s | 5s | 118 MB
bz2 | 54s | 22s | 114 MB
xz | 4m37s | 13s | 86 MB
xz -3 | 1m20s | 12s | 95 MB
Based on this we can say
* For moderate compression with no noticable loss in speed
=> use lzop
* For high compression with moderate loss in speed
=> use gzip
* For best compression with significant loss in speed
=> use xz

Commit 4b58fdf280 which enabled block copy also for network
destinations needed to limit when the 'mirror' storage source is
initialized in cases when we e.g. don't have an appropriate backend.
Limiting it just to virStorageFileSupportsCreate is too restrictive as
for example we can't precreate block devices and thus wouldn't
initialize the 'mirror' but since it's a local source we'd try to
examine it. This would fail since it wouldn't be initialized.
Fix it by introducing a more granular check whether certain operations
are supported and fix the check interlocks.

In v5.9.0-273-g8ecab214de I've tried to fix a lock ordering

client lock is unlocked (in order to honour lock ordering) the
stream we are currently checking in daemonStreamFilter() might be
freed and thus stream->priv might not even exist when the control
get to virMutexLock() call.
To resolve this, grab an extra reference to the stream and handle
its cleanup should the refcounter reach zero after the deref.
If that's the case and we are the only ones holding a reference
to the stream, we MUST return a positive value to make
virNetServerClientDispatchRead() break its loop where it iterates
over filters. The problem is, if we did not do so, then
"filter = filter->next" line will read from a memory that was
just freed (freeing a stream also unregisters its filter).

Before we rewrote nss plugin so that it doesn't use libvirt's
internal functions it used virLeaseReadCustomLeaseFile() to parse
.status files. After the rewrite it's using read() + yajl_parse()
+ yajl_complete_parse(). There's one catch though,
virLeaseReadCustomLeaseFile() skipped over empty files.
An empty .status file is created when a network is started. This
is because we configure dnsmasq to use our leasehelper. So the
first thing it does it calls it as follows:
DNSMASQ_INTERFACE=virbr0 /usr/libexec/libvirt_leaseshelper init
which causes the leasehelper to create empty virbr0.status file.
If there is only one libvirt network then that is no problem -
there are no other .status files to parse anyway. But if there
are two or more networks then the first empty .status file causes
whole parsing process and subsequently the whole name lookup
process to fail.

In the past the network driver was (mistakenly) being called for all
interfaces, not just those of type='network', and so it had a chance
to validate all interface configs after the actual type of the
interface was known.
But since the network driver has been more completely/properly
separated from qemu, the network driver isn't called during the
startup of any interfaces except those with type='network', so this
validation no longer takes place for, e.g. <interface type='bridge'>
(or direct, etc). This in turn meant that a config could erroneously
specify a vlan tag, or bandwidth settings, for a type of interface
that didn't support it, and the domain would start without complaint,
just silently ignoring those settings.
This patch moves those validation checks out of the network driver,
and into virDomainActualNetDefValidate() so they will be done for all
interfaces, not just type='network'.

<interface> devices (virDomainNetDef) are a bit different from other
types of devices in that their actual type may come from a network (in
the form of a port connection), and that doesn't happen until the
domain is started. This means that any validation of an <interface> at
parse time needs to be a bit liberal in what it accepts - when
type='network', you could think that something is/isn't allowed, but
once the domain is started and a port is created by the configured
network, the opposite might be true.
To solve this problem hypervisor drivers need to do an extra
validation step when the domain is being started. I recently (commit
3cff23f7, libvirt 5.7.0) added a function to peform such validation
for all interfaces to the QEMU driver -
qemuDomainValidateActualNetDef() - but while that function is a good
single point to call for the multiple places that need to "start" an
interface (domain startup, device hotplug, device update), it can't be
called by the other hypervisor drivers, since 1) it's in the QEMU
driver, and 2) it contains some checks specific to QEMU. For
validation that applies to network devices on *all* hypervisors, we
need yet another interface validation function that can be called by
any hypervisor driver (not just QEMU) right after its network port has
been created during domain startup or hotplug. This patch adds that
function - virDomainActualNetDefValidate(), in the conf directory,
and calls it in appropriate places in the QEMU, lxc, and libxl
drivers.
This new function is the place to put all network device validation
that 1) is hypervisor agnostic, and 2) can't be done until we know the
"actual type" of an interface.
There is no framework for validation at domain startup as there is for
post-parse validation, but I don't want to create a whole elaborate
system that will only be used by one type of device. For that reason,
I just made a single function that should be called directly from the
hypervisors, when they are initializing interfaces to start a domain,
right after conditionally allocating the network port (and regardless
of whether or not that was actually needed). In the case of the QEMU
driver, qemuDomainValidateActualNetDef() is already called in all the
appropriate places, so we can just call the new function from
there. In the case of the other hypervisors, we search for
virDomainNetAllocateActualDevice() (which is the hypervisor-agnostic
function that calls virNetworkPortCreateXML()), and add the call to our
new function right after that.
The new function itself could be plunked down into many places in the
code, but we already have 3 validation functions for network devices
in 2 different places (not counting any basic validation done in
virDomainNetDefParseXML() itself):
1) post-parse hypervisor-agnostic
(virDomainNetDefValidate() - domain_conf.c:6145)
2) post-parse hypervisor-specific
(qemuDomainDeviceDefValidateNetwork() - qemu_domain.c:5498)
3) domain-start hypervisor-specific
(qemuDomainValidateActualNetDef() - qemu_domain.c:5390)
I placed (3) right next to (2) when I added it, specifically to avoid
spreading validation all over the code. For the same reason, I decided
to put this new function right next to (1) - this way if someone needs
to add validation specific to qemu, they go to one location, and if
they need to add validation applying to everyone, they go to the
other. It looks a bit strange to have a public function in between a
bunch of statics, but I think it's better than the alternative of
further fragmentation. (I'm open to other ideas though, of course.)
