-vnc :5900,share=allow-exclusive
allows clients to ask for exclusive access which is
implemented by dropping other connections Connecting
multiple clients in parallel requires all clients asking
for a shared session (vncviewer: -shared switch)
-vnc :5900,share=force-shared
disables exclusive client access. Useful for shared
desktop sessions, where you don't want someone forgetting
specify -shared disconnect everybody else.
-vnc :5900,share=ignore
completely ignores the shared flag and allows everybody
connect unconditionally
QEMU might support more values for "-drive discard", so using Bi-state
values (on/off) for it doesn't make sense.
"on" maps to "unmap", "off" maps to "ignore":
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.
</...>
The following XML configuration can be used to request all domain's
memory pages to be kept locked in host's memory (i.e., domain's memory
pages will not be swapped out):
<memoryBacking>
<locked/>
</memoryBacking>
Change the build process & driver initialization so that the
VirtualBox driver is built into libvirtd, instead of libvirt.so
This change avoids the VirtualBox GPLv2-only license causing
compatibility problems with libvirt.so which is under the
GPLv2-or-later license.
NB this change prevents use of the VirtualBox driver on the
Windows platform, until such time as libvirtd can be made
to work there.

QEMU introduced "discard" option for drive since commit a9384aff53,
<...>
@var{discard} is one of "ignore" (or "off") or "unmap" (or "on") and
controls whether @dfn{discard} (also known as @dfn{trim} or @dfn{unmap})
requests are ignored or passed to the filesystem. Some machine types
may not support discard requests.
</...>
This patch exposes the support in libvirt.
QEMU supported "discard" for "-drive" since v1.5.0-rc0:
% git tag --contains a9384aff53
contains
v1.5.0-rc0
v1.5.0-rc1
So this only detects the capability bit using virQEMUCapsProbeQMPCommandLine.
Adding support for new attribute 'websocket' in the '<graphics>'
element, the attribute value is the port to listen on with '-1'
meaning auto-allocation, '0' meaning no websockets.
QEMU introduced command line "-mem-merge=on|off" (defaults to on) to
enable/disable the memory merge (KSM) at guest startup. This exposes
it by new XML:
<memoryBacking>
<nosharepages/>
</memoryBacking>
The XML tag is same with what we used internally for old RHEL.
network: static route support for <network>
This patch adds the <route> subelement of <network> to define a static
route. the address and prefix (or netmask) attribute identify the
destination network, and the gateway attribute specifies the next hop
address (which must be directly reachable from the containing
<network>) which is to receive the packets destined for
"address/(prefix|netmask)".
These attributes are translated into an "ip route add" command that is
executed when the network is started. The command used is of the
following form:
ip route add <address>/<prefix> via <gateway> \
dev <virbr-bridge> proto static metric <metric>
Tests are done to validate that the input data are correct. For
example, for a static route ip definition, the address must be a
network address and not a host address. Additional checks are added
to ensure that the specified gateway is directly reachable via this
network (i.e. that the gateway IP address is in the same subnet as one
of the IP's defined for the network).
prefix='0' is supported for both family='ipv4' address='0.0.0.0'
netmask='0.0.0.0' or prefix='0', and for family='ipv6' address='::',
prefix=0', although care should be taken to not override a desired
system default route.
Anytime an attempt is made to define a static route which *exactly*
duplicates an existing static route (for example, address=::,
prefix=0, metric=1), the following error message will be sent to
syslog:
RTNETLINK answers: File exists
This can be overridden by decreasing the metric value for the route
that should be preferred, or increasing the metric for the route that
shouldn't be preferred (and is thus in place only in anticipation that
the preferred route may be removed in the future). Caution should be
used when manipulating route metrics, especially for a default route.
Note: The use of the command-line interface should be replaced by
direct use of libnl so that error conditions can be handled better. But,
that is being left as an exercise for another day.

The <filesystem> element can now accept a <driver type='nbd'/>

Extend the <driver> element in filesystem devices to
allow a storage format to be set. The new attribute
uses 'format' to reflect the storage format. This is
different from the <driver> element in disk devices
which use 'type' to reflect the storage format. This
is because the 'type' attribute on filesystem devices
is already used for the driver backend, for which the
disk devices use the 'name' attribute. Arggggh.
Anyway for disks we have
<driver name="qemu" type="raw"/>
And for filesystems this change means we now have
<driver type="loop" format="raw"/>

An example of the scsi hostdev XML:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi'>
<source>
<adapter name='scsi_host0'/>
<address bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</source>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='4' unit='8'/>
</hostdev>
Controller is implicitly added for scsi hostdev, though the scsi
controller's model defaults to "lsilogic", which might be not what
the user wants (same problem exists for virtio-scsi disk). It's
the existing problem, will be addressed later.
The device address must be specified manually. Later patch will let
libvirt generate it automatically.
This only introduces the generic XMLs for scsi hostdev, later patches
will add other elements, e.g. <readonly>, <shareable>.

While reviewing proposed VIR_STRDUP conversions, I've already noticed
several places that do:
if (str && VIR_STRDUP(dest, str) < 0)
which can be simplified by allowing str to be NULL (something that
strdup() doesn't allow). Meanwhile, code that wants to ensure a
non-NULL dest regardless of the source can check for <= 0.
Also, make it part of the VIR_STRDUP contract that macro arguments
are evaluated exactly once.

The code adaptation is not done right now, but in subsequent patches.
Hence I am not implementing syntax-check rule as it would break
compilation. Developers are strongly advised to use these new macros.
They are similar to VIR_ALLOC() logic: VIR_STRDUP(dst, src) returns zero
on success, -1 otherwise. In case you don't want to report OOM error,
use the _QUIET variant of a macro.
Add missing 'html:' namespace prefix to a few more XSL

The previous commit failed to update the XSL to take account
of fact that in XHTML mode the elements need namespace
prefixes. This caused every web page to be blank!
The rule generating the HTML docs passing the --html flag
to xsltproc. This makes it use the legacy HTML parser, which
either ignores or tries to fix all sorts of broken XML tags.
There's no reason why we should be writing broken XML in
the first place, so removing --html and adding the XHTML
doctype to all files forces us to create good XML.
This adds the XHTML doc type and fixes many, many XML tag
problems it exposes.

It's not desired to force users imagine path for a socket they
are not even supposed to connect to. On the other hand, we
already have a release where the qemu agent socket path is
exposed to XML, so we cannot silently drop it from there.
The new path is generated in form:
$LOCALSTATEDIR/lib/libvirt/qemu/channel/target/$domain.$name
for qemu system mode, and
$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/qemu/lib/channel/target/$domain.$name
for qemu session mode.
Commit cc6d19f3 added text containing "<code>snapshot<code>" to
formatsnapshot.html.in. The closing tag is missing '/' which causes
the documentation to misrender.
A domain's <interface> or <hostdev>, as well as a <network>'s
<forward>, can now have an optional <driver name='kvm|vfio'/>
element. As of this patch, there is no functionality behind this new
knob - this patch adds support to the domain and network
formatter/parser, and to the RNG and documentation.
When the backend is added, legacy KVM PCI device assignment will
continue to be used when no driver name is specified (or if <driver
name='kvm'/> is specified), but if driver name is 'vfio', the new UEFI
Secure Boot compatible VFIO device assignment will be used.
Note that the parser doesn't automatically insert the current default
value of this setting. This is done on purpose because the two
possibilities are functionally equivalent from the guest's point of
view, and we want to be able to automatically start using vfio as the
default (even for existing domains) at some time in the future. This
is similar to what was done with the "vhost" driver option in
<interface>.
For pSeries guest in QEMU, NVRAM is one kind of spapr-vio device.
Users are allowed to specify spapr-vio devices'address.
But NVRAM is not supported in libvirt. So this patch is to
add NVRAM device to allow users to specify its address.
In QEMU, NVRAM device's address is specified by
"-global spapr-nvram.reg=xxxxx".
In libvirt, XML file is defined as the following:
<nvram>
<address type='spapr-vio' reg='0x3000'/>
</nvram>

Instead of making a choice between the underscore and camelCase, this
simply changes "num_queues" into "queues", which is also consistent
with Michal's multiple queue support for interface.
It will simplify later work if the sub-drivers have dedicated
APIs / field names. ie virNetworkDriver should have
virDrvNetworkOpen and virDrvNetworkClose methods
