As bhyve for a long time didn't have a notion of the explicit SATA
controller and created a controller for each drive, the bhyve driver
in libvirt acted in a similar way and didn't care about the SATA
controllers and assigned PCI addresses to drives directly, as
the generated command will look like this anyway:
2:0,ahci-hd,somedisk.img
This no longer makes sense because:
1. After commit c07d1c1c4f it's not possible to assign
PCI addresses to disks
2. Bhyve now supports multiple disk drives for a controller,
so it's going away from 1:1 controller:disk mapping, so
the controller object starts to make more sense now
So, this patch does the following:
- Assign PCI address to SATA controllers (previously we didn't do this)
- Assign disk addresses instead of PCI addresses for disks. Now, when
building a bhyve command, we take PCI address not from the disk
itself but from its controller
- Assign addresses at XML parsing time using the
assignAddressesCallback. This is done mainly for being able to
verify address allocation via xml2xml tests
- Adjust existing bhyvexml2{xml,argv} tests to chase the new
address allocation
This patch is largely based on work of Fabian Freyer.
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.
