Daniel P. Berrange 42f43592be Support reboots with the QEMU driver
For controlled shutdown we issue a 'system_powerdown' command
to the QEMU monitor. This triggers an ACPI event which (most)
guest OS wire up to a controlled shutdown. There is no equiv
ACPI event to trigger a controlled reboot. This patch attempts
to fake a reboot.

 - In qemuDomainObjPrivatePtr we have a bool fakeReboot
   flag.
 - The virDomainReboot method sets this flag and then
   triggers a normal 'system_powerdown'.
 - The QEMU process is started with '-no-shutdown'
   so that the guest CPUs pause when it powers off the
   guest
 - When we receive the 'POWEROFF' event from QEMU JSON
   monitor if fakeReboot is not set we invoke the
   qemuProcessKill command and shutdown continues
   normally
 - If fakeReboot was set, we spawn a background thread
   which issues 'system_reset' to perform a warm reboot
   of the guest hardware. Then it issues 'cont' to
   start the CPUs again

* src/qemu/qemu_command.c: Add -no-shutdown flag if
  we have JSON support
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add 'fakeReboot' flag to
  qemuDomainObjPrivate struct
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fake reboot using the
  system_powerdown command if JSON support is available
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
  src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h,
  src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: Add
  binding for system_reset command
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c: Reset the guest & start CPUs if
  fakeReboot is set

         LibVirt : simple API for virtualization

  Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.

Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER Hypervisor.
