The libvirt test driver supports more APIs now, so we are getting
a different error message.
Extend the grep= string to work with both old and new libvirt

The test driver was broken for some time and our mdev tests were failing
on most libvirt versions. Recently this was fixed in libvirt 10.4.0 so
skip these tests unless we have new enough libvirt.
This requires extracting some mdev devices from many-devices test case.

Properly setting the metadata cache size can provide better performance
in case of using big qcow2 images.
This patch introduces two driver options:
* driver.metadata_cache.max_size
* driver.metadata_cache.max_size.unit
E.g. --disk ...,driver.type=qcow2,\
driver.metadata_cache.max_size=2,\
driver.metadata_cache.max_size.unit=MiB
BTW, Metadata cache size control is currently supported only for qcow2.
Regarding how to properly caluclate the cache size of qcow2, Please refer
to qemu's documentation.

It allows to set the thread pool size to optimize spawning worker threads

These two optional attributes allow setting lower and upper boundary for

This allows support for host/guest clipboard sharing when using vnc
guests (and possibly other graphics types in the future). This channel
is similar to the spicevmc channel, but it contains a couple additional
options to enable/disable clipboard sharing and specify the mouse mode.
In the case of spice, these settings are specified on the 'graphics'
element, but for qemu-vdagent, they are specified on the channel. For
example:
--channel=qemu-vdagent,source.clipboard.copypaste=on,source.mouse.mode=client

Via the virt-manager UI we aren't converting relative path to

We were benefiting from this in the test suite in some ways, so we

This is a virt-xml option to refresh a VM to use the latest machine
type version for the machine type it's currently using. Ex:
pseries-2.11 -> pseries

out from under you, or to pick up bug fixes.

It's generally not as valuable for non-x86 where we don't have the

The code previously was just encoding the same defaults as libvirt,
which doesn't really add anything.
Instead, let's prefer type='emulator' model='tpm-crb', which
gives the most modern virtualization friendly config. When we don't
know if that will work, we mostly leave things up to libvirt to fill
in.
Signed-off-by: Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
Add extra PCIe root ports to enable q35 device hotplug to work out
of the box. A typical modern linux guest has 7-8 PCI devices added
by default, so this gives plenty of wiggle room.
The smart thing to do would be to count the attached PCI devices
and add 4-5 extra, but that takes more work and isn't trivial.
The number can be overridden on the cli with:
--controller q35_pcie_root_ports=X
Use =0 to go back to the old behavior.

host-copy was the old default, but it's fundamentally flawed. Since
we switched to host-model default a few years back, it's not advertised
in the docs or selectable via virt-manager any more.

This was previously discussed here:

For the x86 + hvm case, failure to specify an --osinfo/--os-variant
OS, and failure to detect an OS from install media, will now throw
a big error:
```
--os-variant/--osinfo OS name is required, but no value was
set or detected.
This is now a fatal error. Specifying an OS name is required
for modern, performant, and secure virtual machine defaults.
If you expected virt-install to detect an OS name from the
install media, you can set a fallback OS name with:
--osinfo detect=on,name=OSNAME
You can see a full list of possible OS name values with:
virt-install --osinfo list
If your Linux distro is not listed, try one of generic values
such as: linux2020, linux2018, linux2016
If you just need to get the old behavior back, you can use:
--osinfo detect=on,require=off
Or export VIRTINSTALL_OSINFO_DISABLE_REQUIRE=1
```
The thread goes into more detail, but basically, for x86 VMs at least,
it's unlikely you will _ever_ want the default 'generic' behavior,
which gives gives no virtio, no PCIe, no usb3, IDE disks, slow
network devices, etc.
Many people use virt-install in scripts and CI, and this may now
cause breakage. The environment variable is there to help them
get things back to normal as quick as possible, but it will still
noisy up their logs with the warning to hopefully get them to make
a useful change to their virt-install invocations.
This is limited to x86, since that's where most of our defaults
historically differ, and where we can depend on libosinfo to give
the most accurate device info. This may be relevant to change for
other KVM architectures in the future.

I'm still seeing blog posts that recommend using

The canonical tool for this is `osinfo-query os`, which we still
reference in the man pages and in the list output.
However, we are about to make missing --os-variant fatal for common
usage, and I don't want to force users to install an extra tool just
to figure out what an acceptable --os-variant value is.

This recommendation came from an internal discussion. The cases are
* For block storage. This means guest requests are passed through
to the host device, which seems a more reasonable default than
ignoring them
* For sparse disk images we will create. discard=unmap helps preserve
the sparseness of the disk image. If a user requests non-sparse, they
are likely more concerned with performance than saving disk space,
so we leave the default as is. We limit this to disk images we will
create, since that's the easiest case to check, and it's less clear
if we should change the behavior here for an arbitrary existing
disk image.

Signed-off-by: Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
The bare metal world is moving to a situation where UEFI is going to be
the only supported firmware and there will be a strong expectation for
TPM and SecureBoot support.
With this in mind, if we're enabling UEFI on a VM, it makes sense to
also provide a TPM alongside it.
Since this requires swtpm to be installed we can't do this
unconditionally. The forthcoming libvirt release expands the domain
capabilities to report whether TPMs are supported, so we check that.
The user can disable the default TPM by requesting --tpm none

The product of sockets * dies * cores * threads must be equal to the
vCPU count. While libvirt and QEMU will report this error scenario,
it makes sense to catch it in virt-install, so we can test our local
logic for setting defaults for topology.
This exposes some inconsistent configurations in the test suite.

Although using --cpu topology.XXX is the preferred way to set topology,
it is still possible via the --vcpus parameter. For consistency, this

Add the ability to set the ioapic driver using the --features argument:
$ virt-install --features ioapic.driver=qemu ...
This results in the following xml:
<features>
...
<ioapic driver="qemu"/>
</features>
This is required in order to install a guest with >255 cpus. Such a
configuration requires an iommu with extended interrupt mode enabled,
which in turn requires IOMMU interrupt remapping to be enabled, which in
turn requires a split I/O APIC.
