In the XML file we now have

  <cputune>
    <shares>1024</shares>
    <period>90000</period>
    <quota>0</quota>
  </cputune>

But the schedinfo parameter are being named

 cpu_shares: 1024
 cfs_period: 90000
 cfs_quota: 0

The period/quota is per-vcpu value, so these new tunables should be named
'vcpu_period' and 'vcpu_quota'.

These function executes 'tc' with appropriate arguments to set
desired QoS setting on interface or bridge during its creation.

These functions parse given XML node and return pointer to the
output. Unknown elements are silently ignored. Attributes must
be integer and must fit in unsigned long long.

Free function frees elements of virBandwidth structure.

The new listenNetwork attribute needs to learn an IP address based on a
named network. This patch provides a function networkGetNetworkAddress
which provides that.

Some networks have an IP address explicitly in their configuration
(ie, those with a forward type of "none", "route", or "nat"). For
those, we can just return the IP address from the config.

The rest will have a physical device associated with them (either via
<bridge name='...'/>, <forward ... dev='...'/>, or possibly via a pool
of interfaces inside the network's <forward> element) and we will need
to ask the kernel for a current IP address of that device (via the
newly added ifaceGetIPAddress)

If networkGetNetworkAddress encounters an error while trying to learn
the address for a network, it will return -1. In the case that libvirt
has been compiled without the network driver, the call is a macro
which reduces to -2. This allows differentiating between a failure of
the network driver, and its complete absence.

This function uses ioctl(SIOCGIFADDR), which limits it to returning
the first IPv4 address of an interface, but that's what we want right
now (the place we're going to use the address only accepts one).

The sanlock plugin for libvirt expects the directory
/var/lib/libvirt/sanlock to exist. Create this and add
it to the RPM

* libvirt.spec.in: Add /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock
* src/Makefile.am: Create /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock

A container should not be allowed to modify stuff in /sys
or /proc/sys so make them readonly. Make /selinux readonly
so that containers think that selinux is disabled.

Honour the readonly flag when mounting container filesystems
from the guest XML config

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Support readonly mounts

Even in non-virtual root filesystem mode we should be mounting
more than just a new /proc. Refactor lxcContainerMountBasicFS
so that it does everything except for /dev and /dev/pts moving
that into lxcContainerMountDevFS. Pass in a source prefix
to lxcContainerMountBasicFS() so it can be used in both shared
root and private root modes.

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Unify mounting code for special
  filesystems

The bind mount setup is about to get more complicated.
To avoid having to deal with several copies, pull it
out into a separate lxcContainerMountFSBind method.

Also pull out the iteration over container filesystems,
so that it will be easier to drop in support for non-bind
mount filesystems

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Pull bind mount code out into
  lxcContainerMountFSBind

When libvirtd starts it it will sanity check its own certs,
and before libvirt clients connect to a remote server they
will sanity check their own certs. This patch allows such
sanity checking to be skipped. There is no strong reason to
need to do this, other than to bypass possible libvirt bugs
in sanity checking, or for testing purposes.

libvirt.conf gains tls_no_sanity_certificate parameter to
go along with tls_no_verify_certificate. The remote driver
client URIs gain a no_sanity URI parameter

* daemon/test_libvirtd.aug, daemon/libvirtd.conf,
  daemon/libvirtd.c, daemon/libvirtd.aug: Add parameter to
  allow cert sanity checks to be skipped
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Add no_sanity parameter to
  skip cert checks
* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c, src/rpc/virnettlscontext.h:
  Add new parameter for skipping sanity checks independantly
  of skipping session cert validation checks

Also prepend $(AM_V_GEN) to the command line, mark virkeycode-mapgen.py
as executable and switch the shebang line from /bin/python to the
commonly use /usr/bin/python.

xen_session_logout already frees the whole session object.
Don't call xenSessionFree on a freed session object.

Reported by Sharmila Radhakrishnan.

New optional parameter "keyfile" for ssh transport allows the user to select
the private key to be used to authenticate to the remote host.

All of the functions in util/interface.c were returning 0 on success,
but some returned -1 on error, and some returned a positive value
(usually the value of errno, but sometimes just 1). Libvirt's standard
is to return < 0 on error (in the case of functions that need to
return errno, -errno is returned.

This patch modifies all functions in interface.c to consistently
return < 0 on error, and makes changes to callers of those functions
where necessary.

There is some commonality between the code for sanity checking
certs when initializing libvirt and the code for validating
certs during a live TLS session handshake. This patchset splits
up the sanity checking function into several smaller functions
each doing a specific type of check. The cert validation code
is then updated to also call into these functions

* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c: Refactor cert validation code

The gnutls_certificate_type_set_priority method is deprecated.
Since we already set the default gnutls priority, it was not
serving any useful purpose and can be removed

* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c: Remove gnutls_certificate_type_set_priority
  call

If the virStateInitialize call fails we must shutdown libvirtd
since drivers will not be available. Just free'ing the virNetServer
is not sufficient, we must send a SIGTERM to ourselves so that
we interrupt the event loop and trigger a orderly shutdown

* daemon/libvirtd.c: Kill ourselves if state init fails
* src/rpc/virnetserver.c: Add some debugging to event loop

When an operation started by virDomainBlockPull completes (either with
success or with failure), raise an event to indicate the final status.
This API allow users to avoid polling on virDomainGetBlockJobInfo if
they would prefer to use an event mechanism.

* daemon/remote.c: Dispatch events to client
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define event ID and callback signature
* src/conf/domain_event.c, src/conf/domain_event.h,
  src/libvirt_private.syms: Extend API to handle the new event
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Connect to the QEMU monitor event
  for block_stream completion and emit a libvirt block pull event
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Receive and dispatch events to application
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x: Wire protocol definition for the event
* src/remote_protocol-structs: structure definitions for protocol verification
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
  src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Watch for BLOCK_STREAM_COMPLETED event
  from QEMU monitor

The virDomainBlockPull* family of commands are enabled by the
following HMP/QMP commands: 'block_stream', 'block_job_cancel',
 'info block-jobs' / 'query-block-jobs', and 'block_job_set_speed'.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.[ch]: implement disk
  streaming by using the proper qemu monitor commands.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.[ch]: implement commands using the qmp monitor

The generator can handle everything except virDomainGetBlockJobInfo().

* src/remote/remote_protocol.x: provide defines for the new entry points
* src/remote/remote_driver.c daemon/remote.c: implement the client and
  server side for virDomainGetBlockJobInfo.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: structure definitions for protocol verification
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Permit some unsigned long parameters

* src/libvirt.c: implement the main entry points

Set up the types for the block pull functions and insert them into the
virDriver structure definition.  Symbols are exported in this patch to
prevent
documentation compile failures.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: new API
* src/driver.h: add the new entry to the driver structure
* python/generator.py: fix compiler errors, the actual python bindings

* src/remote_protocol-structs: Update.

Modifying the xml on either save or restore only gets you so
far - you have to remember to 'virsh dumpxml dom' just prior
to the 'virsh save' in order to have an xml file worth modifying
that won't be rejected due to abi breaks.  To make this more
powerful, we need a way to grab the xml embedded within a state
file, and from there, it's not much harder to also support
modifying a state file in-place.

Also, virDomainGetXMLDesc didn't document its flags.

* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New prototypes.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New API.
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDrvDomainSaveImgeDefineXML): New driver callbacks.

When auto-dumping a domain on crash events, or autostarting a domain
with managed save state, let the user configure whether to imply
the bypass cache flag.

* src/qemu/qemu.conf (auto_dump_bypass_cache, auto_start_bypass_cache):
Document new variables.
* src/qemu/libvirtd_qemu.aug (vnc_entry): Let augeas parse them.

Honor them.

Wire together the previous patches to support file system cache
bypass during API save/restore requests in qemu.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSaveInternal, doCoreDump)
(qemudDomainObjStart, qemuDomainSaveImageOpen, qemuDomainObjRestore)
(qemuDomainObjStart): Add parameter.
(qemuDomainSaveFlags, qemuDomainManagedSave, qemudDomainCoreDump)
(processWatchdogEvent, qemudDomainStartWithFlags, qemuAutostartDomain)
(qemuDomainRestoreFlags): Update callers.

O_DIRECT has stringent requirements.  Rather than make lots of changes
at each site that wants to use O_DIRECT, it is easier to offload
the work through a helper process that mirrors the I/O between a
pipe and the actual direct fd, so that the other end of the pipe
no longer has to worry about constraints.

Plus, if the kernel ever gains better posix_fadvise support, then we
only have to touch a single file to let all callers benefit from a
more efficient way to avoid file system caching.

* src/util/virfile.h (virFileDirectFdFlag, virFileDirectFdNew)
(virFileDirectFdClose, virFileDirectFdFree): New prototypes.
* src/util/virdirect.c: Implement new wrapper object.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (virfile.h): Export new symbols.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add to list.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add new translations.

Required for a coming patch where iohelper will operate on O_DIRECT
fds.  There, the user-space memory must be aligned to file system
boundaries (at least 512, but using page-aligned works better, and
some file systems prefer 64k).  Made tougher by the fact that
VIR_ALLOC won't work on void *, but posix_memalign won't work on
char * and isn't available everywhere.

This patch makes some simplifying assumptions - namely, output
to an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on an empty seekable
file (hence, no need to worry about preserving existing data
on a partial block, and ftruncate will work to undo the effects
of having to round up the size of the last block written), and
input from an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on a complete
seekable file with the only possible short read at EOF.

* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Check for posix_memalign.
* src/util/iohelper.c (runIO): Use aligned memory, and handle
quirks of O_DIRECT on last write.

Rather than making the iohelper subject to a race in reopening
the file, it is nicer to pass an already-open fd by inheritance.

The old synopsis form must continue to work - if someone updates
their libvirt package and installs a new libvirt_iohelper but
without restarting the old libvirtd daemon, then the daemon can
still make calls using the old syntax but the new iohelper.

* src/util/iohelper.c (runIO): Split code for open...
(prepare): ...to new function.
(usage): Update synopsis.
(main): Allow alternate calling form.
* src/fdstream.c (virFDStreamOpenFileInternal): Use alternate form.

For all hypervisors that support save and restore, the new API
now performs the same functions as the old.

VBox is excluded from this list, because its existing domainsave
is broken (there is no corresponding domainrestore, and there
is no control over the filename used in the save).  A later
patch should change vbox to use its implementation for
managedsave, and teach start to use managedsave results.

* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c (libxlDomainSave): Move guts...
(libxlDomainSaveFlags): ...to new function.
(libxlDomainRestore): Move guts...
(libxlDomainRestoreFlags): ...to new function.
* src/test/test_driver.c (testDomainSave, testDomainSaveFlags)
(testDomainRestore, testDomainRestoreFlags): Likewise.
* src/xen/xen_driver.c (xenUnifiedDomainSave)
(xenUnifiedDomainSaveFlags, xenUnifiedDomainRestore)
(xenUnifiedDomainRestoreFlags): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSave, qemudDomainRestore):
Rename and move guts.
(qemuDomainSave, qemuDomainSaveFlags, qemuDomainRestore)
(qemuDomainRestoreFlags): ...here.
(qemudDomainSaveFlag): Rename...
(qemuDomainSaveInternal): ...to this, and update callers.

VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG implies that an argument cannot possibly
be correct, given the current state of the API.
VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED implies that a configuration is
wrong, but arguments aren't configuration.
VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT implies that a function is completely
unimplemented.

But in the case of a function that is partially implemented,
yet the full power of the API is not available for that
driver, none of the above messages make sense.  Hence a new
error message, implying that the argument is known to comply
with the current state of the API, and that while the driver
supports aspects of the function, it does not support that
particular use of the argument.

A good use case for this is a driver that supports
virDomainSaveFlags, but not the dxml argument of that API.

It might be feasible to also use this new error for all functions
that check flags, and which accept fewer flags than what is possible
in the public API.  But doing so would get complicated, since
neither libvirt.c nor the remote driver may do flag filtering,
and every other driver would have to do a two-part check, first
using virCheckFlags on all public flags (which gives
VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG for an impossible flag), followed by a
particular mask check for VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED (for a
possible public flag but unsupported by this driver).

* include/libvirt/virterror.h (VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED): New
error.
* src/util/virterror.c (virErrorMsg): Give it a message.
Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.

Build failure on xenapi_driver from compiler warnings (flags was unused).

Build failure on xen (incorrect number of arguments).  And in fixing
that, I obeyed the comments of struct xenUnifiedDriver that state
that we want to minimize the number of callback functions in that
struct, not add to it.

* src/xen/xen_driver.c (xenUnifiedDomainDestroyFlags): Use correct
arguments.
(xenUnifiedDomainDestroy): Simplify.
* src/xen/xen_driver.h (xenUnifiedDriver): Remove unused callback.
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c (xenHypervisorDestroyDomain): Likewise.
* src/xen/xend_internal.c (xenDaemonDomainDestroy): Likewise.

* src/xen/xs_internal.c (xenStoreDriver): Likewise.
* src/xen/xen_inotify.c (xenInotifyDriver): Likewise.

unknown flags.

during conflict resolving

The network driver needs to assign physical devices for use by modes
that use macvtap, keeping track of which physical devices are in use
(and how many instances, when the devices can be shared). Three calls
are added:

networkAllocateActualDevice - finds a physical device for use by the
domain, and sets up the virDomainActualNetDef accordingly.

networkNotifyActualDevice - assumes that the domain was already
running, but libvirtd was restarted, and needs to be notified by each
already-running domain about what interfaces they are using.

networkReleaseActualDevice - decrements the usage count of the
allocated physical device, and frees the virDomainActualNetDef to
avoid later accidentally using the device.

bridge_driver.[hc] - the new APIs. When WITH_NETWORK is false, these
functions are all #defined to be "0" in the .h file (effectively
becoming a NOP) to prevent link errors.

qemu_(command|driver|hotplug|process).c - add calls to the above APIs
    in the appropriate places.

tests/Makefile.am - we need to include libvirt_driver_network.la
    whenever libvirt_driver_qemu.la is linked, to avoid unreferenced
    symbols (in functions that are never called by the test
    programs...)

This is the one function outside of domain_conf.c that plays around
with (even modifying) the internals of the virDomainNetDef, and thus
can't be fixed up simply by replacing direct accesses to the fields of
the struct with the GetActual*() access functions.

In this case, we need to check if the defined type is "network", and
if it is *then* check the actual type; if the actual type is "bridge",
then we can at least put the bridgename in a place where it can be
used; otherwise (if type isn't "bridge"), we behave exactly as we used
to - just null out *everything*.

The qemu driver accesses fields in the virDomainNetDef directly, but
with the advent of the virDomainActualNetDef, some pieces of
information may be found in a different place (the ActualNetDef) if
the network connection is of type='network' and that network is of
forward type='bridge|private|vepa|passthrough'. The previous patch
added functions to mask this difference from callers - they hide the
decision making process and just pick the value from the proper place.

This patch uses those functions in the qemu driver as a first step in
making qemu work with the new network types. At this point, the
virDomainActualNetDef is guaranteed always NULL, so the GetActualX()
function will return exactly what the def->X that's being replaced
would have returned (ie bisecting is not compromised).

There is one place (in qemu_driver.c) where the internal details of
the NetDef are directly manipulated by the code, so the GetActual
functions cannot be used there without extra additional code; that
file will be treated in a separate patch.

Previously all networks were composed of bridge devices created and
managed by libvirt, and the same operations needed to be done for all
of them when they were started and stopped (create and start the
bridge device, configure its MAC address and IP address, add iptables
rules). The new network types are (for now at least) managed outside
of libvirt, and the network object is used only to contain information
about the network, which is then used as each individual guest
connects itself.

This means that when starting/stopping one of these new networks, we
really want to do nothing, aside from marking the network as
active/inactive.

This has been setup as toplevel Start/Shutdown functions that do the
small bit of common stuff, then have a switch statement to execute
network type-specific start/shutdown code, then do a bit more common
code. The type-specific functions called for the new host bridge and
macvtap based types are currently empty.

In the future these functions may actually do something, and we will
surely add more functions that are similarly patterned. Once
everything has settled, we can make a table of "sub-driver" function
pointers for each network type, and store a pointer to that table in
the network object, then we can replace the switch statements with
calls to functions in the table.

The final step in this will be to add a new table (and corresponding
new functions) for new network types as they are added.
