When adding support for HMAT, in f0611fe8830 I've introduced a
check which aims to validate /domain/cpu/numa/interconnects. As a
part of that, there is a loop which checks whether all <latency/>
with @cache attribute refer to an existing cache level. For
instance:
<cpu mode='host-model' check='partial'>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-5' memory='512000' unit='KiB' discard='yes'>
<cache level='1' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
<size value='8' unit='KiB'/>
<line value='5' unit='B'/>
</cache>
</cell>
<interconnects>
<latency initiator='0' target='0' cache='1' type='access' value='5'/>
<bandwidth initiator='0' target='0' type='access' value='204800' unit='KiB'/>
</interconnects>
</numa>
</cpu>
This XML defines that accessing L1 cache of node #0 from node #0
has latency of 5ns.
However, the loop was not written properly. Well, the check in
it, as it was always checking for the first cache in the target
node and not the rest. Therefore, the following example errors
out:
<cpu mode='host-model' check='partial'>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-5' memory='512000' unit='KiB' discard='yes'>
<cache level='3' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
<size value='10' unit='KiB'/>
<line value='8' unit='B'/>
</cache>
<cache level='1' associativity='direct' policy='writeback'>
<size value='8' unit='KiB'/>
<line value='5' unit='B'/>
</cache>
</cell>
<interconnects>
<latency initiator='0' target='0' cache='1' type='access' value='5'/>
<bandwidth initiator='0' target='0' type='access' value='204800' unit='KiB'/>
</interconnects>
</numa>
</cpu>
This errors out even though it is a valid configuration. The L1
cache under node #0 is still present.

==============================
Libvirt API for virtualization
==============================
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management
daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the
API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other
languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as
mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
