'model' attribute was added to a panic device but only one panic
device is allowed. This patch changes panic device presence
from 'optional' to 'zeroOrMore'.
Panic device type used depends on 'model' attribute.
If no model is specified then device type depends on hypervisor
and guest arch. 'pseries' model is used for pSeries guest and
'isa' model is used in other cases.

When qemuDomainPinIOThread was added in commit id 'fb562614', a check
for the IOThread capability was not needed since a check for iothreadpids
covered the condition where the support for IOThreads was not present.
The iothreadpids array was only created if qemuProcessDetectIOThreadPIDs
was able to query the monitor for IOThreads. It would only do that if
the QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_IOTHREAD capability was set.
However, when iothreadids were added in commit id '8d4614a5' and the
check for iothreadpids was replaced by a search through the iothreadids[]
array for the matching iothread_id that left open the possibility that
an iothreadids[] array was defined, but the entries essentially pointed
to elements with only the 'iothread_id' defined leaving the 'thread_id'
value of 0 and eventually the cpumap entry of NULL.
This was because, the original IOThreads commit id '72edaae7' only
checked if IOThreads were defined and if the emulator had the IOThreads
capability, then IOThread objects were added at startup. The "capability
failure" check was only done when a disk was assigned to an IOThread in
qemuCheckIOThreads. This was because the initial implementation had no way
to dynamically add IOThreads, but it was possible to dynamically add a
disk to the domain. So the decision was if the domain supported it, then
add the IOThread objects. Then if a disk with an IOThread defined was
added, it could check the capability and fail to add if not there. This
just meant the 'iothreads' value was essentially ignored.
Eventually commit id 'a27ed6e7' allowed for the dynamic addition and
deletion of IOThread objects. So it was no longer necessary to generate
IOThread objects to dynamically attach a disk to. However, the startup
and disk check code was not modified to reflect this.
This patch will move the capability failure check to when IOThread
objects are being added to the command line. Thus a domain that has
IOThreads defined will not be started if the emulator doesn't support
the capability. This means when qemuCheckIOThreads is called to add
a disk, it's no longer necessary to check the capability. Instead the
code can use the IOThreadFind call to indicate that the IOThread
doesn't exist.
Finally because it could be possible to have a domain running with the
iothreadids[] defined prior to this change if libvirtd is restarted each
having mostly empty elements, qemuProcessDetectIOThreadPIDs will check
if there are niothreadids when the QEMU_CAPS_OBJECT_IOTHREAD capability
check fails and remove the elements and array if it exists.
With these changes in place, it turns out the cputune-numatune test
was failing because the right bit wasn't set in the test. So used the
opportunity to fix that and create a test that would expect to fail
with some sort of iothreads defined and used, but not having the
correct capability.

Adds a new interface type using UDP sockets, this seems only applicable

The interface type required the addition of a "localaddr" (local

<interface type='udp'>
<mac address='52:54:00:5c:67:56'/>
<source address='127.0.0.1' port='11112'>

</source>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
QEMU call:
-net socket,udp=127.0.0.1:11112,localaddr=127.0.0.1:22222
Notice the xml "local" entry becomes the "localaddr" for the qemu call.

This is backed by the qemu device ioh3420.
chassis and port from the <target> subelement are used to store/set the
respective qemu device options for the ioh3420. Currently, chassis is
set to be the index of the controller, and port is set to
"(slot << 3) + function" (per suggestion from Alex Williamson).
If a pci address had a function number out of range, the error message
would be:
Insufficient specification for PCI address
which is logged by virDevicePCIAddressParseXML() after
virDevicePCIAddressIsValid returns a failure.
This patch enhances virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() to optionally report
the error itself (since it is the place that decides which part of the
address is "invalid"), and uses that feature when calling from
virDevicePCIAddressParseXML(), so that the error will be more useful,
e.g.:
Invalid PCI address function=0x8, must be <= 7
Previously, virDevicePCIAddressIsValid didn't check for the
theoretical limits of domain or bus, only for slot or function. While
adding log messages, we also correct that ommission. (The RNG for PCI
addresses already enforces this limit, which by the way means that we
can't add any negative tests for this - as far as I know our
domainschematest has no provisions for passing XML that is supposed to
fail).
Note that virDevicePCIAddressIsValid() can only check against the
absolute maximum attribute values for *any* possible PCI controller,
not for the actual maximums of the specific controller that this
device is attaching to; fortunately there is later more specific
validation for guest-side PCI addresses when building the set of
assigned PCI addresses. For host-side PCI addresses (e.g. for
<hostdev> and for network device pools), we rely on the error that
will be logged when it is found that the device doesn't actually
exist.

So far the argument has not much meaning and was practically ignored.
This is not good since when doing memory hotplug, the size of desired
hugepage backing is passed in that argument. Taking closer look at the
tests I'm fixing reveals the bug. For instance, while the following is
in the test:
<memory model='dimm'>
<source>
<nodemask>1-3</nodemask>
<pagesize unit='KiB'>4096</pagesize>
</source>
<target>
<size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
<node>0</node>
</target>
<address type='dimm' slot='0' base='0x100000000'/>
</memory>
the generated commandline corresponding to this XML was:
-object memory-backend-ram,id=memdimm0,size=536870912,\
host-nodes=1-3,policy=bind
Have you noticed? Yes, memory-backend-ram! Nothing can be further away
from the right answer. The hugepage backing is requested in the XML
and we happily ignore it. This is just not right. It's
memory-backend-file which should have been used:
-object memory-backend-file,id=memdimm0,prealloc=yes,\
mem-path=/dev/hugepages4M/libvirt/qemu,size=536870912,\
host-nodes=1-3,policy=bind
The problem is, that @pagesize passed to qemuBuildMemoryBackendStr
(where this part of commandline is built) was ignored. The hugepage to
back memory was searched only and only by NUMA nodes pinning. This
works only for regular guest NUMA nodes.
Then, I'm changing the hugepages size in the test XMLs too. This is
simply because in the test suite we create dummy mount points just for
2M and 1G hugepages. And in the test 4M was requested. I'm sticking to
2M, but 1G should just work too.

This function constructs the backend (host facing) part of the
memory device. At the beginning, the configured hugepages are
searched to find the best match for given guest NUMA node.
Configured hugepages can have a @nodeset attribute to specify on
which guest NUMA nodes should be the hugepages backing used.
There is, however, one 'corner case'. Users may just tell 'use
hugepages to back all the nodes'. In other words:
<memoryBacking>
<hugepages/>
</memoryBacking>
<cpu>
<numa>
<cell id='0' cpus='0-1' memory='1024000' unit='KiB'/>

The guest firmware provides the same functionality as the pvpanic

The guest firmware provides the same functionality as the pvpanic

Back in 2013, commit 877bc089 added in some tests that made sure no
error was generated on a domain definition that had an automatically
added usb controller if that domain didn't have a PCI bus to attach
the usb controller to. This was done because, at that time, libvirt
was automatically adding a usb controller to *any* domain definition
that didn't have one. Along with permitting the controller, two
s390-specific tests were added to ensure this behavior was maintained
- one with <controller type='usb' model='none'/> and another (called
"s390-piix-controllers") that had both usb and ide controllers, but
nothing attached to them.
Then in February of this year, commit 09ab9dcc eliminated the annoying
auto-adding of a usb device for s390 and s390x machines, stating:
"Since s390 does not support usb the default creation of a usb
controller for a domain should not occur."
Although, as verified here, the s390 doesn't support usb, and usb
controllers aren't currently added to s390 domain definitions
automatically, there are likely still some domain definitions in the
wild that have a usb controller (which was added *by libvirt*, not by
the user), so we will keep the tests verifying that behavior for
now. But this patch changes the names of the tests to reflect that
they don't actually contain a valid s390 config; this way future
developers won't propagate the incorrect idea that an s390 virtual
machine can have a USB (or IDE) bus.
In the case of the IDE controller, though, libvirt has never
automatically added an IDE controller unless a user added an IDE disk
(which itself would have caused an error), and we specifically *do*
want to begin generating an error when someone tries to add an IDE
controller to a domain that can't support one. For that reason, while
renaming the sz390-piix-controllers patch, this patch removes the
<controller type='ide'...> from it (otherwise the upcoming patch would
break make check)
My commit 747761a79 (v1.2.15 only) dropped this bit of logic when filling
in a default arch in the XML:
- /* First try to find one matching host arch */
- for (i = 0; i < caps->nguests; i++) {
- if (caps->guests[i]->ostype == ostype) {
- for (j = 0; j < caps->guests[i]->arch.ndomains; j++) {
- if (caps->guests[i]->arch.domains[j]->type == domain &&
- caps->guests[i]->arch.id == caps->host.arch)
- return caps->guests[i]->arch.id;
- }
- }
- }
That attempt to match host.arch is important, otherwise we end up
defaulting to i686 on x86_64 host for KVM, which is not intended.
Duplicate it in the centralized CapsLookup function.
Additionally add some testcases that would have caught this.

Add 'thread_id' to the virDomainIOThreadIDDef as a means to store the
'thread_id' as returned from the live qemu monitor data.
Remove the iothreadpids list from _qemuDomainObjPrivate and replace with
the new iothreadids 'thread_id' element.
Rather than use the default numbering scheme of 1..number of iothreads
defined for the domain, use the iothreadid's list for the iothread_id
Since iothreadids list keeps track of the iothread_id's, these are
now used in place of the many places where a for loop would "know"
that the ID was "+ 1" from the array element.
The new tests ensure usage of the <iothreadid> values for an exact number
of iothreads and the usage of a smaller number of <iothreadid> values than
iothreads that exist (and usage of the default numbering scheme).
- Make sure aarch64 host-passthrough works correctly
- Make sure libvirt doesn't choke on cpu model=host, which is what
virt-install/virt-manager were incorrectly specifying up until recently.
This needs to specified in way too many places for a simple validation
check. The ostype/arch/virttype validation checks later in
DomainDefParseXML should catch most of the cases that this was covering.
According to docs, using 'lun' as a value for device attribute is only valid
with disk types 'block' and 'network'. However current RNG schema also allows
a combination type='file' device='lun' which results in a successfull
xml validation, but fails at qemuBuildCommandLine.
Besides fixing the RNG schema, this patch also adds a qemuxml2argvtest
for this case.

Add support to start qemu instance with 'pc-dimm' device. Thanks to the
refactors we are able to reuse the existing function to determine the
parameters.
To enable memory hotplug the maximum memory size and slot count need to
be specified. As qemu supports now other units than mebibytes when
specifying memory, use the new interface in this case.
Now that the size of guest's memory can be inferred from the NUMA
configuration (if present) make it optional to specify <memory>
explicitly.
To make sure that memory is specified add a check that some form of
memory size was specified. One side effect of this change is that it is
no longer possible to specify 0KiB as memory size for the VM, but I
don't think it would be any useful to do so. (I can imagine embedded
systems without memory, just registers, but that's far from what libvirt
is usually doing).
Forbidding 0 memory for guests also fixes a few corner cases where 0 was
not interpreted correctly and caused failures. (Arguments for numad when
using automatic placement, size of the balloon). This fixes problems
described in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161461

Commit f7afeddc added code to report to systemd an array of interface
indexes for all tap devices used by a guest. Unfortunately it not only
didn't add code to report the ifindexes for macvtap interfaces
(interface type='direct') or the tap devices used by type='ethernet',
it ended up sending "-1" as the ifindex for each macvtap or hostdev
interface. This resulted in a failure to start any domain that had a
macvtap or hostdev interface (or actually any type other than
"network" or "bridge").
This patch does the following with the nicindexes array:
1) Modify qemuBuildInterfaceCommandLine() to only fill in the
nicindexes array if given a non-NULL pointer to an array (and modifies
the test jig calls to the function to send NULL). This is because
there are tests in the test suite that have type='ethernet' and still
have an ifname specified, but that device of course doesn't actually
exist on the test system, so attempts to call virNetDevGetIndex() will
fail.
2) Even then, only add an entry to the nicindexes array for
appropriate types, and to do so for all appropriate types ("network",
"bridge", and "direct"), but only if the ifname is known (since that
is required to call virNetDevGetIndex().
Not all machine types support all devices, device properties, backends,
etc. So until we create a matrix of [machineType, qemuCaps], lets just
filter out some capabilities before we return them to the consumer
(which is going to make decisions based on them straight away).
Currently, as qemu is unable to tell which capabilities are (not)
enabled for given machine types, it's us who has to hardcode the matrix.
One day maybe the hardcoding will go away and we can create the matrix
dynamically on the fly based on a few monitor calls.

So, when building the '-numa' command line, the
qemuBuildMemoryBackendStr() function does quite a lot of checks to
chose the best backend, or to check if one is in fact needed. However,
it returned that backend is needed even for this little fella:
<numatune>
<memory mode="strict" nodeset="0,2"/>
</numatune>
This can be guaranteed via CGroups entirely, there's no need to use
memory-backend-ram to let qemu know where to get memory from. Well, as
long as there's no <memnode/> element, which explicitly requires the
backend. Long story short, we wouldn't have to care, as qemu works
either way. However, the problem is migration (as always). Previously,
libvirt would have started qemu with:
-numa node,memory=X
in this case and restricted memory placement in CGroups. Today, libvirt
creates more complicated command line:
-object memory-backend-ram,id=ram-node0,size=X
-numa node,memdev=ram-node0
Again, one wouldn't find anything wrong with these two approaches.
Both work just fine. Unless you try to migrated from the older libvirt
into the newer one. These two approaches are, unfortunately, not
compatible. My suggestion is, in order to allow users to migrate, lets
use the older approach for as long as the newer one is not needed.

Well, we can pretend that we've asked numad for its suggestion and let
qemu command line be built with that respect. Again, this alone has no
big value, but see later commits which build on the top of this.

In order for QEMU vCPU (and other) threads to run with RT scheduler,
libvirt needs to take care of that so QEMU doesn't have to run privileged.

Some code paths have special logic depending on the page size
reported by sysconf, which in turn affects the test results.
We must mock this so tests always have a consistent page size.
For stateless, client side drivers, it is never correct to
probe for secondary drivers. It is only ever appropriate to
use the secondary driver that is associated with the
hypervisor in question. As a result the ESX & HyperV drivers
have both been forced to do hacks where they register no-op
drivers for the ones they don't implement.
For stateful, server side drivers, we always just want to
use the same built-in shared driver. The exception is
virtualbox which is really a stateless driver and so wants
to use its own server side secondary drivers. To deal with
this virtualbox has to be built as 3 separate loadable
modules to allow registration to work in the right order.
This can all be simplified by introducing a new struct
recording the precise set of secondary drivers each
hypervisor driver wants
struct _virConnectDriver {
virHypervisorDriverPtr hypervisorDriver;
virInterfaceDriverPtr interfaceDriver;
virNetworkDriverPtr networkDriver;
virNodeDeviceDriverPtr nodeDeviceDriver;
virNWFilterDriverPtr nwfilterDriver;
virSecretDriverPtr secretDriver;
virStorageDriverPtr storageDriver;
};
Instead of registering the hypervisor driver, we now
just register a virConnectDriver instead. This allows
us to remove all probing of secondary drivers. Once we
have chosen the primary driver, we immediately know the
correct secondary drivers to use.

The virDomainDefParse* and virDomainDefFormat* methods both
accept the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags defined in the public API,
along with a set of other VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags
defined in domain_conf.c.
This is seriously confusing & error prone for a number of
reasons:
- VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE, VIR_DOMAIN_XML_MIGRATABLE and
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_UPDATE_CPU are only relevant for the
formatting operation
- Some of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_* flags only apply
to parse or to format, but not both.
This patch cleanly separates out the flags. There are two
distint VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_* and VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_*
flags that are used by the corresponding methods. The
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_* flags received via public API calls must
be converted to the VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_FORMAT_* flags where
needed.
The various calls to virDomainDefParse which hardcoded the
use of the VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE flag change to use the
VIR_DOMAIN_DEF_PARSE_INACTIVE flag.
QEMU supports feature specification with -cpu host and we just skip
using that. Since QEMU developers themselves would like to use this
feature, this patch modifies the code to work.

It occurred to me that OpenStack uses the following XML when not using
regular huge pages:
<memoryBacking>
<hugepages>
<page size='4' unit='KiB'/>
</hugepages>
</memoryBacking>
However, since we are expecting to see huge pages only, we fail to
startup the domain with following error:
libvirtError: internal error: Unable to find any usable hugetlbfs
mount for 4 KiB
While regular system pages are not huge pages technically, our code is
prepared for that and if it helps OpenStack (or other management
applications) we should cope with that.

Add attribute to set vgamem_mb parameter of QXL device for QEMU. This
value sets the size of VGA framebuffer for QXL device. Default value in
QEMU is 8MB so reuse it also in libvirt to not break things.

So far we didn't have any option to set video memory size for qemu video
devices. There was only the vram (ram for QXL) attribute but it was valid
only for the QXL video device.
To provide this feature to users QEMU has a dedicated device attribute
called 'vgamem_mb' to set the video memory size. We will use the 'vram'
attribute for setting video memory size for other QEMU video devices.
For the cirrus device we will ignore the vram value because it has
hardcoded video size in QEMU.

To track state of virtio channels this patch adds a new output-only
attribute called 'state' to the <target> element of virtio channels.
This will be later populated with the guest state of the channel.
