Osier Yang c56fe7f1d6 qemu: Build command line for the new address format
For any disk controller model which is not "lsilogic", the command
line will be like:

  -drive file=/dev/sda,if=none,id=drive-scsi0-0-3-0,format=raw \
  -device scsi-disk,bus=scsi0.0,channel=0,scsi-id=3,lun=0,i\
  drive=drive-scsi0-0-3-0,id=scsi0-0-3-0

The relationship between the libvirt address attrs and the qdev
properties are (controller model is not "lsilogic"; strings
inside <> represent libvirt adress attrs):
  bus=scsi<controller>.0
  channel=<bus>
  scsi-id=<target>
  lun=<unit>

* src/qemu/qemu_command.h: (New param "virDomainDefPtr def"
  for function qemuBuildDriveDevStr; new param "virDomainDefPtr
  vmdef" for function qemuAssignDeviceDiskAlias. Both for
  virDomainDiskFindControllerModel's use).

* src/qemu/qemu_command.c:
  - New param "virDomainDefPtr def" for qemuAssignDeviceDiskAliasCustom.
    For virDomainDiskFindControllerModel's use, if the disk bus is "scsi"
    and the controller model is not "lsilogic", "target" is one part of
    the alias name.
  - According change on qemuAssignDeviceDiskAlias and qemuBuildDriveDevStr

* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c:
  - Changes to be consistent with declarations of qemuAssignDeviceDiskAlias
    qemuBuildDriveDevStr, and qemuBuildControllerDevStr.

* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-pseries-vio-user-assigned.args,
  tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-pseries-vio.args: Update the
  generated command line.

       libvirt library code README
       ===========================

The directory provides the bulk of the libvirt codebase. Everything
except for the libvirtd daemon and client tools. The build uses a
large number of libtool convenience libraries - one for each child
directory, and then links them together for the final libvirt.so,
although some bits get linked directly to libvirtd daemon instead.

The files directly in this directory are supporting the public API
entry points & data structures.

There are two core shared modules to be aware of:

 * util/  - a collection of shared APIs that can be used by any
            code. This directory is always in the include path
            for all things built

 * conf/  - APIs for parsing / manipulating all the official XML
            files used by the public API. This directory is only
            in the include path for driver implementation modules

 * vmx/   - VMware VMX config handling (used by esx/ and vmware/)


Then there are the hypervisor implementations:

 * esx/          - VMware ESX and GSX support using vSphere API over SOAP
 * hyperv/       - Microsoft Hyper-V support using WinRM
 * lxc/          - Linux Native Containers
 * openvz/       - OpenVZ containers using cli tools
 * phyp/         - IBM Power Hypervisor using CLI tools over SSH
 * qemu/         - QEMU / KVM using qemu CLI/monitor
 * remote/       - Generic libvirt native RPC client
 * test/         - A "mock" driver for testing
 * uml/          - User Mode Linux
 * vbox/         - Virtual Box using native API
 * vmware/       - VMware Workstation and Player using the vmrun tool
 * xen/          - Xen using hypercalls, XenD SEXPR & XenStore
 * xenapi/       - Xen using libxenserver


Finally some secondary drivers that are shared for several HVs.
Currently these are used by LXC, OpenVZ, QEMU, UML and Xen drivers.
The ESX, Hyper-V, Power Hypervisor, Remote, Test & VirtualBox drivers all
implement the secondary drivers directly

 * cpu/          - CPU feature management
 * interface/    - Host network interface management
 * network/      - Virtual NAT networking
 * nwfilter/     - Network traffic filtering rules
 * node_device/  - Host device enumeration
 * secret/       - Secret management
 * security/     - Mandatory access control drivers
 * storage/      - Storage management drivers


Since both the hypervisor and secondary drivers can be built as
dlopen()able modules, it is *FORBIDDEN* to have build dependencies
between these directories. Drivers are only allowed to depend on
the public API, and the internal APIs in the util/ and conf/
directories
