Up to now, users can configure BIOS via the <loader/> element. With
the upcoming implementation of UEFI this is not enough as BIOS and
UEFI are conceptually different. For instance, while BIOS is ROM, UEFI
is programmable flash (although all writes to code section are
denied). Therefore we need new attribute @type which will
differentiate the two. Then, new attribute @readonly is introduced to
reflect the fact that some images are RO.
Moreover, the OVMF (which is going to be used mostly), works in two
modes:
1) Code and UEFI variable store is mixed in one file.
2) Code and UEFI variable store is separated in two files
The latter has advantage of updating the UEFI code without losing the
configuration. However, in order to represent the latter case we need
yet another XML element: <nvram/>. Currently, it has no additional
attributes, it's just a bare element containing path to the variable
store file.

Add a new disk "driver" attribute "iothread" to be parsed as the thread
number for the disk to use. In order to more easily facilitate the usage
and configuration of the iothread, a "zero" for the attribute indicates
iothreads are not supported for the device and a positive value indicates
the specific thread to try and use.
Introduce XML to allowing adding iothreads to the domain. These can be
used by virtio-blk-pci devices in order to assign a specific thread to
handle the workload for the device. The iothreads are the official
implementation of the virtio-blk Data Plane that's been in tech preview
for QEMU.
QEMU 2.1 added support for the kvm=off option to the -cpu command,
allowing the KVM hypervisor signature to be hidden from the guest.
This enables disabling of some paravirualization features in the
guest as well as allowing certain drivers which test for the
hypervisor to load. Domain XML syntax is as follows:
<domain type='kvm>
...
<features>
...
<kvm>
<hidden state='on'/>
</kvm>
</features>

Introduce a new structure to handle an iSCSI host device based on the
existing virDomainHostdevSubsysSCSI by adding a "protocol='iscsi'" to
the <source/> element. The existing scsi_host subsystem RNG was modified
to read an optional "protocol='adapter'", although it won't be written
out nor is it documented as an option (by choice).
The new hostdev structure mimics the existing <disk/> element for an
iSCSI device (network) device. New XML is:
<hostdev mode='subsystem' type='scsi' managed='yes'>
<source protocol='iscsi' name='iqn.1992-01.com.example'>
<host name='example.org' port='3260'/>
<auth username='myname'>
<secret type='iscsi' usage='mycluster_myname'/>
</auth>
</source>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='2' unit='5'/>
</hostdev>
The controller element will mimic the existing scsi_host code insomuch
as when 'lsi' and 'virtio-scsi' are used.
A future patch is going to wire up qemu active block commit jobs;
but as they have similar events and are canceled/pivoted in the
same way as block copy jobs, it is easiest to track all bookkeeping
for the commit job by reusing the <mirror> element. This patch
adds domain XML to track which job was responsible for creating a
mirroring situation, and adds a job='copy' attribute to all
existing uses of <mirror>. Along the way, it also massages the
qemu monitor backend to read the new field in order to generate
the correct type of libvirt job (even though it requires a
future patch to actually cause a qemu event that can be reported
as an active commit). It also prepares to update persistent XML
to match changes made to live XML when a copy completes.

Doing a blockcopy operation across a libvirtd restart is not very
robust at the moment. In particular, we are clearing the <mirror>
element prior to telling qemu to finish the job. Also, thanks to the
ability to request async completion, the user can easily regain
control prior to qemu actually finishing the effort, and they should
be able to poll the domain XML to see if the job is still going.
A future patch will fix things to actually wait until qemu is done
before modifying the XML to reflect the job completion. But since
qemu issues identical BLOCK_JOB_COMPLETE events regardless of whether
the job was cancelled (kept the original disk) or completed (pivoted
to the new disk), we have to track which of the two operations were
used to end the job. Furthermore, we'd like to avoid attempts to
end a job where we are already waiting on an earlier request to qemu
to end the job. Likewise, if we miss the qemu event (perhaps because
it arrived during a libvirtd restart), we still need enough state
recorded to be able to determine how to modify the domain XML once
we reconnect to qemu and manually learn whether the job still exists.
Although this patch doesn't actually fix the problem, it is a
preliminary step that makes it possible to track whether a job
has already begun steps towards completion.

In XML format, by definition, order of fields should not matter, so
order of parsing the elements doesn't affect the end result. When
specifying guest NUMA cells, we depend only on the order of the 'cell'
elements. With this patch all older domain XMLs are parsed as before,
but with the 'id' attribute they are parsed and formatted according to
that field. This will be useful when we have tuning settings for
particular guest NUMA node.

Now that we track a disk mirror as a virStorageSource, we might
as well update the XML to theoretically allow any type of
mirroring destination (not just a local file). A later patch
will also be reusing <mirror> to track the block commit of the
top layer of a chain, which is another case where libvirt needs
to update the backing chain after the job is finally pivoted,
and since backing chains can have network backing files as the
destination to commit into, it makes more sense to display that
in the XML.
This patch changes output-only XML; it was already documented
that <mirror> does not affect a domain definition at this point
(because qemu doesn't provide persistent bitmaps yet). Any
application that was starting a block copy job with older libvirt
and then relying on the domain XML to determine if it was
complete will no longer be able to access the file= and format=
attributes of mirror that were previously used. However, this is
not going to be a problem in practice: the only time a block copy
job works is on a transient domain, and any app that is managing
a transient domain probably already does enough of its own
bookkeeping to know which file it is mirroring into without
having to re-read it from the libvirt XML. The one thing that
was likely to be used in a mirroring job was the ready=
attribute, which is unchanged. Meanwhile, I made sure the schema
and parser still accept the old format, even if we no longer
output it, so that upgrading from an older version of libvirt is
seamless.

Various disk types and formats can be mixed in one chain. The
<backingStore/> empty element marks the end of the backing chain and it
is there mostly for future support of parsing the chain provided by a
user. If it's missing, we are supposed to probe for the rest of the
chain ourselves, otherwise complete chain was provided by the user. The
index attributes of backingStore elements can be used to unambiguously
identify a specific part of the image chain.

This patch is my first experience playing with nested grammars,

I plan on doing more overrides in order to make the RelaxNG

not support the same subset of functionality. By starting with
something fairly easy to validate, I can make sure my later

sufficient for testing that adding <source

This feature provides a paravirtual approach to track timer events for

clock on systems with a iTSC with compensation across various hosts.
According to the documentation describing various tunables for domain
timers not all the fields are supported by all the driver types. Express

- rtc, platform: Only these support the "track" attribute.
- tsc: only one to support "frequency" and "mode" attributes
- hpet, pit: tickpolicy/catchup attribute/element
- kvmclock: no extra attributes are supported
Additionally the attributes of the <catchup> element for
tickpolicy='catchup' are optional according to the parsing code. Express
this in the XML and fix a spurious space added while formatting the
<catchup> element and add tests for it.

When outputting the XML for the RNG device, the code didn't format the
PCI address info. Additionally the schema wasn't expecting the info
although it was being parsed and used internally. Fix those mistakes and
add test for the PCI info section.
The linux kernel recently added support for paravirtual spinlock
handling to avoid performance regressions on overcomitted hosts. This
feature needs to be turned in the hypervisor so that the guest OS is
notified about the possible support.
This patch adds a new feature "paravirt-spinlock" to the XML and
supporting code to enable the "kvm_pv_unhalt" pseudo CPU feature in
qemu.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1008989
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:

This device is identical to qemu's "intel-hda" device (known as "ich6"
in libvirt), but has a different PCI device ID (which matches the ID
of the hda audio built into the ich9 chipset, of course). It's not
supported in earlier versions of qemu, so it requires a capability
bit.
Currently the XML parser already allows the following syntax:
<disk type='block' device='cdrom'>
<source startupPolicy='optional'/>
<target dev='hda' bus='ide'/>
<address type='drive' controller='0' bus='0' target='0' unit='0'/>
</disk>
But it if the dev value is NULL then it would not have the leading
"<source ", resulting in invalid XML.
