      snapshot: Various doc tweaks · 1c6b6c0b
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      Since I was copying this text to form checkpoint XML and API
documentation, I might as well make improvements along the way. Most
of these changes are based on reviews of the checkpoint docs.

Among other things: grammar tweaks, point to a single source of
documentation rather than repeating verbosity, reword things for
easier legibility.

      snapshot: More clarification about REDEFINE · a6a25d5c
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      Based on recent list questions about the proposed addition of
virDomainCheckpointCreateXML(REDEFINE), it is worth adding some
clarification to the existing snapshot redefine documentation that is
serving as the basis for checkpoints.

Normal snapshot creation requires very few elements from the user XML
(libvirt can pick sane defaults for items that are omitted, and many
fields, including <domain>, are documented as readonly output fields
ignored on input, produced by drivers that track it). But during
REDEFINE, the API wants the complete XML produced by an earlier
virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc; as the domain definition has likely
changed since the snapshot was first created, libvirt is unable to
recreate a <domain> sub-element that matches the original output
representing the domain state at the time the snapshot was first
created. In fact, reverting without a <domain> sub-element is risky
enough that we had to add a FORCE flag for virDomainSnapshotRevert().
In short, we only support omitting domain for qemu because of
backwards-compatibility to snapshots created before 0.9.5 started
capturing <domain>; even though there are other drivers like vbox that
do not output <domain> because they have other reliable ways to
revert.

And based on the confusion caused when omitting <domain> from snapshot
XML, the initial design for checkpoints in later patches will make
<domain> a mandatory element during its REDEFINE.

[Side note: the fact that <domain> can appear in <domainsnapshot> is a
reason we cannot add a new API for a bulk listing or redefine of all
snapshots of a single domain in one XML call (for example, a 1M
<domain> XML * 16 snapshots explodes into 16M in a bulk form, which
gets difficult to send over RPC). Perhaps we could add a flag to
request that the <domain> sub-element be omitted on output, but such
output is no longer suitable for sane REDEFINE input.]

      syntax-check: Enforce <code> inside <dt> elements · 1f29f3da

      Commit 61b070cf cleaned up a number of cases where the <dt>
element was used to document symbols, but the symbol itself was
not inside a <code> element.

To make sure we don't end up having to clean up again a few
months from now, introduce a syntax-check rule that can spot
such mistakes.

All existing exceptions are marked as such, with either file
or line granularity depending on the case.

      snapshot: Add support for specifying snapshot disk backing type · 7076b4b7
      由 Peter Krempa 提交于 
      Add support for specifying various types when doing snapshots. This will
later allow to do snapshots on network backed volumes. Disks of type
'volume' are not supported by snapshots (yet).

Also amend the test suite to check parsing of the various new disk
types that can now be specified.

      Fix multiple formatting problems in HTML docs · f2f9742d
      由 Daniel P. Berrange 提交于 
      The rule generating the HTML docs passing the --html flag
to xsltproc. This makes it use the legacy HTML parser, which
either ignores or tries to fix all sorts of broken XML tags.
There's no reason why we should be writing broken XML in
the first place, so removing --html and adding the XHTML
doctype to all files forces us to create good XML.

This adds the XHTML doc type and fixes many, many XML tag
problems it exposes.

      snapshot: new XML for external system checkpoint · 4201a7ea
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      Each <domainsnapshot> can now contain an optional <memory>
element that describes how the VM state was handled, similar
to disk snapshots.  The new element will always appear in
output; for back-compat, an input that lacks the element will
assume 'no' or 'internal' according to the domain state.

Along with this change, it is now possible to pass <disks> in
the XML for an offline snapshot; this also needs to be wired up
in a future patch, to make it possible to choose internal vs.
external on a per-disk basis for each disk in an offline domain.
At that point, using the --disk-only flag for an offline domain
will be able to work.

For some examples below, remember that qemu supports the
following snapshot actions:

qemu-img: offline external and internal disk
savevm: online internal VM and disk
migrate: online external VM
transaction: online external disk

=====
<domainsnapshot>
  <memory snapshot='no'/>
  ...
</domainsnapshot>

implies that there is no VM state saved (mandatory for
offline and disk-only snapshots, not possible otherwise);
using qemu-img for offline domains and transaction for online.

=====
<domainsnapshot>
  <memory snapshot='internal'/>
  ...
</domainsnapshot>

state is saved inside one of the disks (as in qemu's 'savevm'
system checkpoint implementation).  If needed in the future,
we can also add an attribute pointing out _which_ disk saved
the internal state; maybe disk='vda'.

=====
<domainsnapshot>
  <memory snapshot='external' file='/path/to/state'/>
  ...
</domainsnapshot>

This is not wired up yet, but future patches will allow this to
control a combination of 'virsh save /path/to/state' plus disk
snapshots from the same point in time.

=====

So for 1.0.1 (and later, as needed), I plan to implement this table
of combinations, with '*' designating new code and '+' designating
existing code reached through new combinations of xml and/or the
existing DISK_ONLY flag:

      snapshot: also support disks by path · 89b6284f
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      I got confused when 'virsh domblkinfo dom disk' required the
path to a disk (which can be ambiguous, since a single file
can back multiple disks), rather than the unambiguous target
device name that I was using in disk snapshots.  So, in true
developer fashion, I went for the best of both worlds - all
interfaces that operate on a disk (aka block) now accept
either the target name or the unambiguous path to the backing
file used by the disk.

      snapshot: allow full domain xml in snapshot · f609cb85
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      Just like VM saved state images (virsh save), snapshots MUST
track the inactive domain xml to detect any ABI incompatibilities.

The indentation is not perfect, but functionality comes before form.

Later patches will actually supply a full domain; for now, this
wires up the storage to support one, but doesn't ever generate one
in dumpxml output.

Happily, libvirt.c was already rejecting use of VIR_DOMAIN_XML_SECURE
from read-only connections, even though before this patch, there was
no information to be secured by the use of that flag.

And while we're at it, mark the libvirt snapshot metadata files
as internal-use only.

      snapshot: allow recreation of metadata · af65695a
      由 Eric Blake 提交于 
      The first two flags are essential for being able to replicate
snapshot hierarchies across multiple hosts, which will come in
handy for supervised migrations.  It also allows a management app
to take a snapshot of a transient domain, save the metadata, stop
the domain, recreate a new transient domain by the same name,
redefine the snapshot, then revert to it.

This is not quite as convenient as leaving the metadata behind
after a domain is no longer around, but doing that has a few
problems: 1. the libvirt API can only delete snapshot metadata
if there is a valid domain handle to use to get to that snapshot
object - if stale data is left behind without a domain, there is
no way to request that the data be cleaned up. 2. creating a new
domain with the same name but different uuid than the older
domain where a snapshot existed cannot use the older snapshot
data; this risks confusing libvirt, and forbidding the stale
data is similar to the recent patch to forbid stale managed save.

The first two flags might be useful on hypervisors with no metadata,
but only for modifying the notion of the current snapshot;
however, I don't know how to do that for ESX or VBox.

The third flag is a convenience option, to combine a creation with
a delete metadata into one step.  It is trivial for hypervisors
with no metadata.

The qemu changes will be involved enough to warrant a separate patch.
