33a9757852 qemu: the actual change of default video devide type selection algorithm
If a graphics device was added to XML that had no video device, libvirt
automatically added a video device which was always of type 'cirrus' on
x86_64, even if the underlying qemu didn't support cirrus.

This patch refines a bit the decision about the type of the video device.
Based on QEMU capabilities, cirrus is still preferred but only added if
QEMU supports it, otherwise VGA is used if supported by QEMU.  There is now
no fallback as libvirt only aspires to generate a basic working config and
leaves anything more specific up to higher-level management tools.

b648d96289 qemu: default video device type selection algoritm moved into its own function
The default video device type selection algorithm we're about to deploy will
increase the amount of code dedicated to the task by amount enough to warrant
factoring the whole thing into its own function so as not to pollute the
caller qemuDomainDeviceVideoDefPostParse().  Do it now so that the actual
algorithm change later on is in a clean commit by itself and easy to review.

36a01c2a47 Revert "network: Check for QOS before blindly using it"
This reverts commit f4db846c32.

This patch results in the following error when trying to start
essentially any VM with default network:

unsupported configuration: QOS must be defined for network 'default'

Coverity didn't see that the bandwidth == NULL it complained about in
virNetDevBandwidthPlug was already checked properly in
networkCheckBandwidth, thus causing networkPlugBandwidth to return 0
and finish before a call to virNetDevBandwidthPlug would have been even
made.

bc7e72914a util: consolidate on one free callback for hash data
This previous commit introduced a simpler free callback for
hash data with only 1 arg, the value to free:

  commit 49288fac96
  Author: Peter Krempa <pkrempa@redhat.com>
  Date:   Wed Oct 9 15:26:37 2019 +0200

    util: hash: Add possibility to use simpler data free function in virHash

It missed two functions in the hash table code which need
to call the alternate data free function, virHashRemoveEntry
and virHashRemoveSet.

After the previous patch though, there is no code that
makes functional use of the 2nd key arg in the data
free function. There is merely one log message that can
be dropped.

We can thus purge the current virHashDataFree callback
entirely, and rename virHashDataFreeSimple to replace
it.

Now that all pieces are in place (hopefully) let's enable -blockdev.

We base the capability on presence of the fix for 'auto-read-only' on

explicit SCSI id strings to avoid ABI regression and that the fix for
'savevm' is present so that internal snapshots work.

3460fef5a0 qemu: caps: Add capability for dynamic 'auto-read-only' support for files
Initial implementation of 'auto-read-only' didn't reopen the backing
files when needed. For '-blockdev' to work we need to be able to tel
qemu to open a file read-only and change it during blockjobs as we label
backing chains with a sVirt label which does not allow writing. The
dynamic auto-read-only supports this as it reopens files when writing
is demanded.

Add a capability to detect that the posix file based backends support
the dynamic part.

8fa0374c5b qemuProcessStop: Remove image metadata for running mirror jobs
If user starts a blockcommit or a blockcopy then we modify access
for qemu on both images and leave it like that until the job
terminates.  So far so good. Problem is, if user instead of
terminating the job (where we would modify the access again so
that the state before the job is restored) calls destroy on the
domain or if qemu dies whilst executing the block job.  In this
case we don't ever clear the access we granted at the beginning.
To fix this, maybe a bit harsh approach is used, but it works:
after all labels were restored (that is after
qemuSecurityRestoreAllLabel() was called), we iterate over each
disk in the domain and remove XATTRs from the whole backing chain
and also from any file the disk is being mirrored to.

This would have been done at the time of pivot, but it isn't
because user decided to kill the domain instead. If we don't do
this and leave some XATTRs behind the domain might be unable to
start.

Also, secdriver can't do this because it doesn't know if there is
any job running. It's outside of its scope - the hypervisor
driver is responsible for calling secdriver's APIs.

Moreover, this is safe to call because we don't remember labels
for any member of a backing chain except of the top layer. But
that one was restored in qemuSecurityRestoreAllLabel() call done
earlier. Therefore, not only we don't remember labels (and thus
this is basically a NOP for other images in the backing chain) it
is also safe to call this when no blockjob was started in the
first place, or if some parts of the backing chain are shared
with some other domains - this is NOP, unless a block job is
active at the time of domain destroy.

d6064e2759 libvirt-<module>: Check caller-provided buffers to be NULL with size > 0
Pre-Glib era which used malloc allowed the size of the client-side
buffers to be declared as 0, because malloc documents that it can either
return 0 or a unique pointer on 0 size allocations.
With glib this doesn't work anymore, because glib documents that for
such allocation requests NULL is always returned which results in an
error in our public API checks server-side.
This patch complements the fix in the RPC layer by explicitly erroring
out on the following combination of args used by our legacy APIs (their
moder equivalents don't suffer from this):

function(caller-allocated-array, size, ...) {
    if (!caller-allocated-array && size > 0)
        return error;
}

treating everything else as a valid input and potentially let that fail
on the server-side rather than client-side.

apparmor: let AppArmorSetSecurityImageLabel append rules
There are currently broken use cases, e.g. snapshotting more than one disk at
once like:
 $ virsh snapshot-create-as --domain eoan --disk-only --atomic
   --diskspec vda,snapshot=no  --diskspec vdb,snapshot=no
   --diskspec vdc,file=/test/disk1.snapshot1.qcow,snapshot=external
   --diskspec vdd,file=/test/disk2.snapshot1.qcow,snapshot=external
The command above will iterate from qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive and
eventually add /test/disk1.snapshot1.qcow first (appears in the rules)
to then later add /test/disk2.snapshot1.qcow and while doing so throwing
away the former rule causing it to fail.

All other calls to (re)load_profile already use append=true when adding
rules append=false is only used when restoring rules [1].

Fix this by letting AppArmorSetSecurityImageLabel use append=true as well.

Since this is removing a (unintentional) trigger to revoke all rules
appended so far we agreed on review to do some tests, but in the tests
no rules came back on:
- hot-plug
- hot-unplug
- snapshotting

string to then free it again.

This was initially added in [1] when the code was still in
AppArmorRestoreSecurityImageLabel (later moved) and even back then had
no further effect than described above.

virt-aa-helper: clarify command line options
While only used internally from libvirt the options still are misleading
enough to cause issues every now and then.
Group modes, options and an adding extra file and extend the wording of
the latter which had the biggest lack of clarity.
Both add a file to the end of the rules, but one re-generates the
rules from XML and the other keeps the existing rules as-is not
considering the XML content.

5e939cea89 qemu: Store default CPU in domain XML
When starting a domain without a CPU model specified in the domain XML,
QEMU will choose a default one. Which is fine unless the domain gets
migrated to another host because libvirt doesn't perform any CPU ABI
checks and the virtual CPU provided by QEMU on the destination host can
differ from the one on the source host.

With QEMU 4.2.0 we can probe for the default CPU model used by QEMU for
a particular machine type and store it in the domain XML. This way the
chosen CPU model is more visible to users and libvirt will make sure
the guest will see the exact same CPU after migration.

Architecture specific notes
- aarch64: We only set the default CPU for TCG domains as KVM requires
  explicit "-cpu host" to work.

- ppc64: The default CPU for KVM is "host" thanks to some hacks in QEMU,
  we will translate the default model to the model corresponding to the
  host CPU ("POWER8" on a Power8 host, "POWER9" on Power9 host, etc.).
  This is not a problem as the corresponding CPU model is in fact an
  alias for "host". This is probably not ideal, but it's not wrong and
  the default virtual CPU configured by libvirt is the same QEMU would
  use. TCG uses various CPU models depending on machine type and its
  version.

- s390x: The default CPU for KVM is "host" while TCG defaults to "qemu".

- x86_64: The default CPU model (qemu64) is not runnable on any host
  with KVM, but QEMU just disables unavailable features and starts
  happily.
