3f029fb531 LXC: Fix handling of RAM filesystem size units
Since 76b644c when the support for RAM filesystems was introduced,
libvirt accepted the following XML:
<source usage='1024' unit='KiB'/>

This was parsed correctly and internally stored in bytes, but it
was formatted as (with an extra 's'):
<source usage='1024' units='KiB'/>
When read again, this was treated as if the units were missing,
meaning libvirt was unable to parse its own XML correctly.

The usage attribute was documented as being in KiB, but it was not
scaled if the unit was missing. Transient domains still worked,
because this was balanced by an extra 'k' in the mount options.

This patch:
Changes the parser to use 'units' instead of 'unit', as the latter
was never documented (fixing persistent domains) and some programs
(libvirt-glib, libvirt-sandbox) already parse the 'units' attribute.

Removes the extra 'k' from the tmpfs mount options, which is needed
because now we parse our own XML correctly.

Changes the default input unit to KiB to match documentation, fixing:

f8456e5a18 VMX: Add cdrom-raw dev type from VMWare Fusion
According to VMWare's documentation 'cdrom-raw' is an acceptable value
for deviceType for a CD-ROM drive. The documentation states that the VMX
configuration for a CD-ROM deviceType is as follows:

ide|scsi(n):(n).deviceType = "cdrom-raw|atapi-cdrom|cdrom-image"

From the documentation it appears the following is true:
- cdrom-image = Provides the ISO to the VM
- atapi-cdrom = Provides a NEC emulated ATAPI CD-ROM on top of the host
  CD-ROM
- cdrom-raw = Passthru for a host CD-ROM drive. Allows CD-R burning from
  within the guest.

A CD-ROM prior to this patch would always provide an 'atapi-cdrom' is
modeled as:
  <disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
    <source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
    <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
    <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
  </disk>

This patch allows the 'device' attribute to be set to 'lun' for a raw
acccess CD-ROM such as:
  <disk type='block' device='lun'>
    <source dev='/dev/scd0'/>
    <target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
    <address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
  </disk>

feba2febce qemu: Support setting the 'removable' flag for USB disks
Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
which is the same behaviour as before.

To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
'-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.

<controller type='pci' index='0' model='pci-root'>

It can be used to adjust (or disable) the size of the 64-bit
PCI hole. The size attribute is in kilobytes (different unit
can be specified on input), but it gets rounded up to
the nearest GB by QEMU.

0f082e699e selinux: distinguish failure to label from request to avoid label
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=924153

Commit 904e05a2 (v0.9.9) added a per-<disk> seclabel element with
an attribute relabel='no' in order to try and minimize the
impact of shutdown delays when an NFS server disappears.  The idea
was that if a disk is on NFS and can't be labeled in the first
place, there is no need to attempt the (no-op) relabel on domain
shutdown.  Unfortunately, the way this was implemented was by
modifying the domain XML so that the optimization would survive
libvirtd restart, but in a way that is indistinguishable from an
explicit user setting.  Furthermore, once the setting is turned
on, libvirt avoids attempts at labeling, even for operations like
snapshot or blockcopy where the chain is being extended or pivoted
onto non-NFS, where SELinux labeling is once again possible.  As
a result, it was impossible to do a blockcopy to pivot from an
NFS image file onto a local file.

The solution is to separate the semantics of a chain that must
not be labeled (which the user can set even on persistent domains)
vs. the optimization of not attempting a relabel on cleanup (a
live-only annotation), and using only the user's explicit notation
rather than the optimization as the decision on whether to skip
a label attempt in the first place.  When upgrading an older
libvirtd to a newer, an NFS volume will still attempt the relabel;
but as the avoidance of a relabel was only an optimization, this
shouldn't cause any problems.

In the ideal future, libvirt will eventually have XML describing
EVERY file in the backing chain, with each file having a separate
<seclabel> element.  At that point, libvirt will be able to track
more closely which files need a relabel attempt at shutdown.  But
until we reach that point, the single <seclabel> for the entire
<disk> chain is treated as a hint - when a chain has only one
file, then we know it is accurate; but if the chain has more than
one file, we have to attempt relabel in spite of the attribute,
in case part of the chain is local and SELinux mattered for that
portion of the chain.

62ac6b4354 qemu: add dmi-to-pci-bridge controller
This PCI controller, named "dmi-to-pci-bridge" in the libvirt config,
and implemented with qemu's "i82801b11-bridge" device, connects to a
PCI Express slot (e.g. one of the slots provided by the pcie-root
controller, aka "pcie.0" on the qemu commandline), and provides 31
*non-hot-pluggable* PCI (*not* PCIe) slots, numbered 1-31.

Any time a machine is defined which has a pcie-root controller
(i.e. any q35-based machinetype), libvirt will automatically add a
dmi-to-pci-bridge controller if one doesn't exist, and also add a
pci-bridge controller. The reasoning here is that any useful domain
will have either an immediate (startup time) or eventual (subsequent
hot-plug) need for a standard PCI slot; since the pcie-root controller
only provides PCIe slots, we need to connect a dmi-to-pci-bridge
controller to it in order to get a non-hot-plug PCI slot that we can
then use to connect a pci-bridge - the slots provided by the
pci-bridge will be both standard PCI and hot-pluggable.

Since pci-bridge devices themselves can not be hot-plugged into a
running system (although you can hot-plug other devices into a
pci-bridge's slots), any new pci-bridge controller that is added can
(and will) be plugged into the dmi-to-pci-bridge as long as it has
empty slots available.

This patch is also changing the qemuxml2xml-pcie test from a "DO_TEST"
to a "DO_DIFFERENT_TEST". This is so that the "before" xml can omit
the automatically added dmi-to-pci-bridge and pci-bridge devices, and
the "after" xml can include it - this way we are testing if libvirt is
properly adding these devices.

48a3f48ac5 qemu: add pcie-root controller
This controller is implicit on q35 machinetypes. It provides 31 PCIe
(*not* PCI) slots as controller 0.

Currently there are no devices that can connect to pcie-root, and no
implicit pci controller on a q35 machine, so q35 is still
unusable. For a usable q35 system, we need to add a
"dmi-to-pci-bridge" pci controller, which can connect to pcie-root,
and provides standard pci slots that can be used to connect other
devices.

c00b2f0dd1 conf: Introduce new XML tag "mode" for disk source
There are two ways to use a iSCSI LUN as disk source for qemu.

 * The LUN's path as it shows up on host, e.g.
   /dev/disk/by-path/ip-$ip:3260-iscsi-$iqn-fc18:iscsi.iscsi0-lun-1

 * The libiscsi URI from the storage pool source element host attribute, e.g.
   iscsi://demo.org:6000/iqn.1992-01.com.example/1

For a "volume" type disk, if the specified "pool" is of iscsi
type, we should support to use the LUN in either of above 2 ways.
That's why to introduce a new XML tag "mode" for the disk source
(libvirt should support iscsi pool with libiscsi, but it's another
new feature, which should be done later).

The "mode" can be either of "host" or "direct". Use "host" to indicate
use of the LUN with the path as it shows up on host. Use "direct" to
indicate to use it with the source pool host URI (future patches may support
to use network type libvirt storage too, e.g. Ceph)

77b54b9661 qemu: New XML to disable memory merge at guest startup
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.

13579d4544 Add 'nbd' as a valid filesystem driver type
The <filesystem> element can now accept a <driver type='nbd'/>
as an alternative to 'loop'. The benefit of NBD is support
for non-raw disk image formats.
