This flag was originally created to indicate that either 1) the build
platform wasn't linux, 2) the build platform was linux, but the kernel
was too old to have macvtap support. Since there was already a switch
there, the ability to also disable it when 3) the kernel supports
macvtap but the user doesn't want it, was added in. I don't think that
(3) was ever an intentional goal, just something that grew naturally
out of having the flag there in the first place (unless possibly the
original author wanted a way to quickly disable their new code in case
it caused regressions elsewhere).
Now that the check for (2) has been removed, WITH_MACVTAP is just
checking (1) and (3), but (3) is pointless (because the extra code in
libvirt itself is miniscule, and the only external library needed for
it is libnl, which is also required for other unrelated features (and
itself has no subordinate dependencies and takes up < 1MB on
disk)). We can therfore eliminate the WITH_MACVTAP flag, as it is
functionally equivalent to WITH_LIBNL (which implies __linux__).

There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.

When accessing libvirtd over a SSH tunnel, the remote driver needs a way
to proxy the SSH input/output stream to a suitable libvirt daemon. This
is currently done by spawning netcat, pointing it to the libvirtd socket
path. This is problematic for a number of reasons:
- The socket path varies according to the --prefix chosen at build
time. The remote client is seeing the local prefix, but what we
need is the remote prefix
- The socket path varies according to remote env variables, such as
the XDG_RUNTIME_DIR location. Again we see the local XDG_RUNTIME_DIR
value, but what we need is the remote value (if any)
- The remote driver doesn't know whether it must connect to the legacy
libvirtd or the modular daemons, so must always assume legacy
libvirtd for back-compat. This means we'll always end up using the
virtproxyd daemon adding an extra hop in the RPC layer.
- We can not able to autospawn the libvirtd daemon for session mode
access
To address these problems this patch introduces the 'virtd-ssh-helper'
program which takes the URI for the remote driver as a CLI parameter.
It then figures out which daemon to connect to and its socket path,
using the same code that the remote driver client would on the remote
host's build of libvirt.

Note that some of the the configuration for a mediated device must be
passed to mdevctl as a JSON-formatted file. In order to avoid creating

pass the filename /dev/stdin to mdevctl. While this may not be portable,
neither are mediated devices, so I don't believe it should cause any

The previous "QEMU shim" proof of concept was taking an approach of only
caring about initial spawning of the QEMU process. It was then
registered with the libvirtd daemon who took over management of it. The
intent was that later libvirtd would be refactored so that the shim
retained control over the QEMU monitor and libvirt just forwarded APIs
to each shim as needed. This forwarding of APIs would require quite alot
of significant refactoring of libvirtd to achieve.
This impl thus takes a quite different approach, explicitly deciding to
keep the VMs completely separate from those seen & managed by libvirtd.
Instead it uses the new "qemu:///embed" URI scheme to embed the entire
QEMU driver in the shim, running with a custom root directory.
Once the driver is initialization, the shim starts a VM and then waits
to shutdown automatically when QEMU shuts down, or should kill QEMU if
it is terminated itself. This ought to use the AUTO_DESTROY feature but
that is not yet available in embedded mode, so we rely on installing a
few signal handlers to gracefully kill QEMU. This isn't reliable if
we crash of course, but you can restart with the same root dir.
Note this program does not expose any way to manage the QEMU process,
since there's no RPC interface enabled. It merely starts the VM and
cleans up when the guest shuts down at the end. This program is
installed to /usr/bin/virt-qemu-run enabling direct use by end users.
Most use cases will probably want to integrate the concept directly
into their respective application codebases. This standalone binary
serves as a nice demo though, and also provides a way to measure
performance of the startup process quite simply.

Prepare for new backup APIs by describing the XML that will represent
a backup. The XML resembles snapshots and checkpoints in being able
to select actions for a set of disks, but has other differences. It
can support both push model (the hypervisor does the backup directly
into the destination file) and pull model (the hypervisor exposes an
access port for a third party to grab what is necessary). Add
testsuite coverage for some minimal uses of the XML.
The <disk> element within <domainbackup> tries to model the same
elements as a <disk> under <domain>, but sharing the RNG grammar
proved to be hairy. That is in part because while <domain> use
<source> to describe a host resource in use by the guest, a backup job
is using a host resource that is not visible to the guest: a push
backup action is instead describing a <target> (which ultimately could
be a remote network resource, but for simplicity the RNG just
validates a local file for now), and a pull backup action is instead
describing a temporary local file <scratch> (which probably should not
be a remote resource). A future refactoring may thus introduce some
way to parameterize RNG to accept <disk type='FOO'>...</disk> so that
the name of the subelement can be <source> for domain, or <target> or
<scratch> as needed for backups. Future patches may improve this area
of code.

docs: Introduce $(devhelphtml_generated)

Now that we have $(modules), however, we can generate the
list of files the same way we do for regular documentation
and make sure we always ship and install everything.
That this bug went unnoticed for so long is a sign of how few
people are using the devhelp docs. The only commits to the devhelp
code since it was first introduced have been fixing various build
problems that hit.
The only obvious difference between the two sets of docs is the CSS
styling in use. Overall devhelp does not look compelling enough to
justify having two duplicated sets of API docs. Eliminating it will
reduce the amount of XSL code we are carrying in the tree which is
an attractive benefit.
