This attribute says what to do with cdrom (or floppy) if
the source is missing. It accepts:
- mandatory - fail if missing for any reason (the default)
- requisite - fail if missing on boot up, drop if missing on
migrate/restore/revert
- optional - drop if missing at any start attempt.
However, this patch introduces only XML part of this new
functionality.
Clarify some of the effects of managed passthrough <hostdev> devices;
with recent changes (commit d093547), a nodedev-reattach is only needed
to pair up to an explicit nodedev-dettach (but beware that older
virt-manager has a bug where it uses explicit nodedev-dettach under the
hood when using the gui to hotplug a hostdev device).

VirtFS allows the user to choose between path/handle based fs driver.
As of now, libvirt hardcoded path based driver only. This patch provides
a solution to allow user to choose between path/handle based fs driver.
Sample:

<driver type='handle'/>
<source dir='/folder/to/share1'/>
<target dir='mount_tag1'/>
</filesystem>
<filesystem type='mount'>

Previously libvirt's disk device XML only had a single attribute,
error_policy, to control both read and write error policy, but qemu
has separate options for controlling read and write. In one case
(enospc) a policy is allowed for write errors but not read errors.
This patch adds a separate attribute that sets only the read error
policy. If just error_policy is set, it will apply to both read and
write error policy (previous behavior), but if the new rerror_policy
attribute is set, it will override error_policy for read errors only.
Possible values for rerror_policy are "stop", "report", and "ignore"
("report" is the qemu-controlled default for rerror_policy when
error_policy isn't specified).
For consistency, the value "report" has been added to the possible
values for error_policy as well.
When support for was added for PCI multifunction cards (in commit
9f8baf, first included in libvirt 0.9.3), it was done by always
turning on the multifunction bit for all PCI devices. Since that time
it has been realized that this is not an ideal solution, and that the
multifunction bit must be selectively turned on. For example, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728174
and the discussion before and after
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-September/msg01036.html
This patch modifies multifunction support so that the multifunction=on
option is only added to the qemu commandline for a device if its PCI
<address> definition has the attribute "multifunction='on'", e.g.:
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x04' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/>
In practice, the multifunction bit should only be turned on if
function='0' AND other functions will be used in the same slot - it
usually isn't needed for functions 1-7 (although there are apparently
some exceptions, e.g. the Intel X53 according to the QEMU source
code), and should never be set if only function 0 will be used in the
slot. The test cases have been changed accordingly to illustrate.
With this patch in place, if a user attempts to assign multiple
functions in a slot without setting the multifunction bit for function
0, libvirt will issue an error when the domain is defined, and the
define operation will fail. In the future, we may decide to detect
this situation and automatically add multifunction=on to avoid the
error; even then it will still be useful to have a manual method of
turning on multifunction since, as stated above, there are some
devices that excpect it to be turned on for all functions in a slot.
A side effect of this patch is that attempts to use the same PCI
address for two different devices will now log an error (previously
this would cause the domain define operation to fail, but there would
be no log message generated). Because the function doing this log was
almost completely rewritten, I didn't think it worthwhile to make a
separate patch for that fix (the entire patch would immediately be
obsoleted).
there is no option "none":

This patch was made in response to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738095
In short, qemu's default for the rombar setting (which makes the
firmware ROM of a PCI device visible/not on the guest) was previously
0 (not visible), but they recently changed the default to 1
(visible). Unfortunately, there are some PCI devices that fail in the
guest when rombar is 1, so the setting must be exposed in libvirt to
prevent a regression in behavior (it will still require explicitly
setting <rom bar='off'/> in the guest XML).
rombar is forced on/off by adding:
<rom bar='on|off'/>
inside a <hostdev> element that defines a PCI device. It is currently
ignored for all other types of devices.
At the moment there is no clean method to determine whether or not the
rombar option is supported by QEMU - this patch uses the advice of a
QEMU developer to assume support for qemu-0.12+. There is currently a
patch in the works to put this information in the output of "qemu-kvm
-device pci-assign,?", but of course if we switch to keying off that,
we would lose support for setting rombar on all the versions of qemu
between 0.12 and whatever version gets that patch.
QEMU 0.13 introduced cache=unsafe for -drive, this patch exposes
it in the libvirt layer.
* Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_UNSAFE),
as even if $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't know if unsafe
is supported.
* Improved the reliability of qemu cache type detection.
A new element is introduced to XML that allows to control
state of virtual network interfaces in hypervisors.
Live modification of the link state allows networking tools
propagate topology changes to guest OS or testing of
scenarios in complex (virtual) networks.
This patch adds elements to XML grammars and parsing and generating
code.
It is important to be able to attach USB redirected devices to a
particular controller (one that supports USB2 for instance).
Without this patch, only the default bus was used.
<redirdev bus='usb' type='spicevmc'>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='4'/>
</redirdev>

Newer QEMU introduced cache=directsync for -drive, this patchset
is to expose it in libvirt layer.
* Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_DIRECTSYNC),
As even $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't known if directsync
is supported.
In some versions of qemu, both virtio-blk-pci and virtio-net-pci
devices can have an event_idx setting that determines some details of
event processing. When it is enabled, it "reduces the number of
interrupts and exits for the guest". qemu will automatically enable
this feature when it is available, but there may be cases where this
new feature could actually make performance worse (NB: no such case
has been found so far).
As a safety switch in case such a situation is encountered in the
field, this patch adds a new attribute "event_idx" to the <driver>
element of both disk and interface devices. event_idx can be set to
"on" (to force event_idx on in case qemu has it disabled by default)
or "off" (for force event_idx off). In the case that event_idx support
isn't present in qemu, the attribute is ignored (this on the advice of
the qemu developer).

"don't mess with this!"

Once it's plugged in, the <listen> element will be an optional
replacement for the "listen" attribute that graphics elements already
have. If the <listen> element is type='address', it will have an
attribute called 'address' which will contain an IP address or dns
name that the guest's display server should listen on. If, however,
type='network', the <listen> element should have an attribute called
'network' that will be set to the name of a network configuration to
get the IP address from.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: updated to allow the <listen> element
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: document the <listen> element and its
attributes.
* src/conf/domain_conf.[hc]:
1) The domain parser, formatter, and data structure are modified to
support 0 or more <listen> subelements to each <graphics>
element. The old style "legacy" listen attribute is also still
accepted, and will be stored internally just as if it were a
separate <listen> element. On output (i.e. format), the address
attribute of the first <listen> element of type 'address' will be
duplicated in the legacy "listen" attribute of the <graphic>
element.
2) The "listenAddr" attribute has been removed from the unions in
virDomainGRaphicsDef for graphics types vnc, rdp, and spice.
This attribute is now in the <listen> subelement (aka
virDomainGraphicsListenDef)
3) Helper functions were written to provide simple access
(both Get and Set) to the listen elements and their attributes.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export the listen helper functions
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c,
src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c,
src/vmx/vmx.c, src/xenxs/xen_sxpr.c, src/xenxs/xen_xm.c
Modify all these files to use the listen helper functions rather
than directly referencing the (now missing) listenAddr
attribute. There can be multiple <listen> elements to a single
<graphics>, but the drivers all currently only support one, so all
replacements of direct access with a helper function indicate index
"0".
* tests/* - only 3 of these are new files added explicitly to test the
new <listen> element. All the others have been modified to reflect
the fact that any legacy "listen" attributes passed in to the domain
parse will be saved in a <listen> element (i.e. one of the
virDomainGraphicsListenDefs), and during the domain format function,
both the <listen> element as well as the legacy attributes will be
output.
We had a bit too many elements crammed in there. Separate it into different
headings:
- CPU Allocation (<vcpus>)
- CPU Tuning (<cputune>)
- Memory allocation (<memory> and <currentMemory>)
- Memory backing (<memoryBacking>)
- Memory tuning (<memtune>)
- Numa tuning (<numatune>)
- Block I/O tuning (<blkiotune>)
Define new 'bandwidth' element with possible child element 'inbound'
and 'outbound' addressing incoming and outgoing traffic respectively:
<bandwidth>
<inbound average='1000' peak='2000' burst='5120'/>
<outbound average='500'/>
</bandwidth>
Leaving any element out means not to shape traffic in that
direction.
The units for average and peak (rate) are in kilobytes per second,
for burst (size) are just in kilobytes.
This element can be inserted into domain's 'interface' and
'network'.
the domain XML <interface> element is updated in the following ways:
1) <virtualportprofile> can be specified when source type='network'
(previously it was only valid for source type='direct')
2) A new attribute "portgroup" has been added to the <source>
element. When source type='network' (the only time portgroup is
recognized), extra configuration information will be taken from the
<portgroup> element of the given name in the network definition.
3) Each virDomainNetDef now also potentially has a
virDomainActualNetDef which is a private object (never
exported/imported via the public API, and not defined in the RNG) that
is used to maintain information about the physical device that was
actually used for a NetDef of type VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK.
The virDomainActualNetDef will only be parsed/formatted if the
parse/format function is called with the
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_ACTUAL_NET flag set (which is only needed when
saving/loading a running domain's state info to the stateDir).
This patch creates new <bios> element which, at this time has only the
attribute useserial='yes|no'. This attribute allow users to use
Serial Graphics Adapter and see BIOS messages from the very first moment
domain boots up. Therefore, users can choose boot medium, set PXE, etc.
This option accepts 3 values:
-keep, to keep current client connected (Spice+VNC)
-disconnect, to disconnect client (Spice)
-fail, to fail setting password if there is a client connected (Spice)
No change in wording. One spacing change in a <pre>, noticed because
of odd XML formatting online; the rest is in free-flowing text to
make it easier to see nesting levels in the document.
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Adjust spacing. Break long lines.
This patch adds documentation about the 802.1Qbh related parameters
of the virtualport element for 'direct' interfaces.

For virtio disks and interfaces, qemu allows users to enable or disable
ioeventfd feature. This means, qemu can execute domain code, while
another thread waits for I/O event. Basically, in some cases it is win,
in some loss. This feature is available via 'ioeventfd' attribute in disk
and interface <driver> element. It accepts 'on' and 'off'. Leaving this
attribute out defaults to hypervisor decision.
From a security pov copy and paste between the guest and the client is not
always desirable. So we need to be able to enable/disable this. The best place
to do this from an administration pov is on the hypervisor, so the qemu cmdline
is getting a spice disable-copy-paste option, see bug 693645. Example qemu
invocation:
qemu -spice port=5932,disable-ticketing,disable-copy-paste
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=693661
For backwards compatibility, if no <video> is set but there is a
<graphics> tag, then we add a default <video> according to the
guest type. Add docs to tell the user about this to not make
them confused. Especially if they remove the video (such as via
"virsh edit"), it will be surprised for them to see the video
element is still in domain XML.
A lock manager may operate in various modes. The direct mode of
operation is to obtain locks based on the resources associated
with devices in the XML. The indirect mode is where the app
creating the domain provides explicit leases for each resource
that needs to be locked. This XML extension allows for listing
resources in the XML
<devices>
...
<lease>
<lockspace>somearea</lockspace>
<key>thequickbrownfoxjumpsoverthelazydog</key>
<target path='/some/lease/path' offset='23432'/>
</lease>
...
</devices>
The 'lockspace' is a unique identifier for the lockspace which
the lease is associated
The 'key' is a unique identifier for the resource associated
with the lease.
The 'target' is the file on disk where the leases are held.

This adds a streaming-video=filter|all|off attribute. It is used to change
