This part represents the biggest chunk of the existing hacking.rst, and
despite that its utility is very limited because 'make syntax-check'
already guarantees most of the rules are followed over time.
Until the glorious day we finally codify our coding style completely
into a configuration for a tool such as clang-format and thus no longer
need a plain English description of it, move this part to a separate
page.

In the 'topology' element it is mentioned, regarding the sockets
value, "They refer to the total number of CPU sockets".
This is not accurate. What we're doing is calculating the number
of sockets per NUMA node, which can be checked in the current
implementation of virHostCPUGetInfoPopulateLinux(). Calculating
the total number of sockets would break the topology sanity
check nodes*sockets*cores*threads=online_cpus.
This documentation fix is important to avoid user confusion when
seeing the output of 'virsh capabilities' and expecting it to be
equal to the output of 'lscpu'. E.g in a Power 9 host this 'lscpu'
output:
Architecture: ppc64le
Byte Order: Little Endian
CPU(s): 160
On-line CPU(s) list: 0-159
Thread(s) per core: 4
Core(s) per socket: 20
Socket(s): 2
NUMA node(s): 2
Model: 2.2 (pvr 004e 1202)
Model name: POWER9, altivec supported
And this XML output from virsh capabilities:
<cpu>
<arch>ppc64le</arch>
<model>POWER9</model>
<vendor>IBM</vendor>
<topology sockets='1' dies='1' cores='20' threads='4'/>
(...)
</cpu>
Both are correct, as long as we mention in the Libvirt documentation
that 'sockets' in the topology element represents the number of sockets
per NUMA node.

Introduce new 'multidevs' option for filesystem.
<filesystem type='mount' accessmode='mapped' multidevs='remap'>
<source dir='/path'/>
<target dir='mount_tag'>
</filesystem>
This option prevents misbehaviours on guest if a qemu 9pfs export
contains multiple devices, due to the potential file ID collisions
this otherwise may cause.

Our virCommand module allows us to set a pidfile for commands we
want to spawn. The caller constructs the string of pidfile path
and then uses virCommandSetPidFile() to tell the module to write
the pidfile once the command is ran. This usually works, but has
two flaws:
1) the child process does not hold the pidfile open & locked.
Therefore, the caller (or anybody else) can't use our fancy
virPidFileForceCleanupPath() function to kill the command
afterwards. Also, for everybody else on the system it's
needlessly harder to check if the pid from the pidfile is still
alive or not.
2) if the caller ever makes a mistake and passes the same pidfile
path for two different commands, the start of the second command
will overwrite the pidfile even though the first command might
still be running.
NOTE that this temporarily renders some command spawning
unusable, specifically those code patterns where both
virCommandSetPidFile() is used together with instructing spawned
command to acquire pidfile itself. Fortunately, there is only one
occurrence of such pattern and it is in
qemuProcessStartManagedPRDaemon(). This is fixed in next commit.

ppc64 NVDIMM support was implemented in QEMU by commit [1].
The support is similar to what x86 already does, aside from
an extra 'uuid' element.
This patch introduces a new optional 'uuid' element for the
NVDIMM memory model. This element behaves like the 'uuid'
element of the domain definition - if absent, we'll create
a new one, otherwise use the one provided by the XML.
The 'uuid' element is exclusive to pseries guests and are
unavailable for other architectures.
Next patch will use this new element to add NVDIMM support
for ppc64.
