--dhcp-no-override description from dnsmasq man page:

      Disable  re-use  of  the  DHCP servername and filename fields as
      extra option space. If it can, dnsmasq moves the boot server and
      filename  information  (from  dhcp-boot)  out of their dedicated
      fields into DHCP options. This make extra space available in the
      DHCP  packet  for options but can, rarely, confuse old or broken
      clients. This flag forces "simple and safe" behaviour  to  avoid
      problems in such a case.

It seems some virtual network card ROMs are this old/buggy so let's add
--dhcp-no-override as a workaround for them. We don't use extra DHCP
options so this should be safe. The option was added in dnsmasq-2.41,
which becomes the minimum required version.

For parsing try to match by datastore mount path first, if that
fails fallback to /vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> parsing. This
also fixes problems with GSX on Windows. Because GSX on Windows
doesn't use /vmfs/volumes/ style file names.

For formatting use the datastore mount path too, instead of using
/vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> as fixed format.

We add --dhcp-lease-max=xxx argument when network->def->nranges > 0 but
we only allocate space for in the opposite case :-) I guess we are lucky
enough to miscount somewhere else so that we actually allocate more
space than we need since no-one has hit this bug so far.

Introduce esxVMX_Context containing functions pointers to
glue both parts together in a generic way.

Move the ESX specific part to esx_driver.c.

This is a step towards making the VMX code reusable in a
potential VMware Workstation and VMware Player driver.

  The balloon device is automatically added to qemu guests if supported,
but it may be useful to desactivate it. The simplest to not change the
existing behaviour is to allow
  <memballoon type="none"/>
as an extra option to desactivate it (it is automatically added if the
memballoon construct is missing for the domain).
The following simple patch just adds the extra option and does not
change the default behaviour but avoid creating a balloon device if
type="none" is used.

* docs/schemas/domain.rng: add the extra type attribute value
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the extra enum
  value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: if enum is NONE, don't activate the device,
  i.e. don't pass the args to qemu/kvm

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/622515 - When hot-unplugging CPUs,
libvirt failed to start a guest that had been pinned to CPUs that
were still online.

Tested on a dual-core laptop, where I also discovered that, per
http://www.cyberciti.biz/files/linux-kernel/Documentation/cpu-hotplug.txt,
/sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/online does not exist on systems where it
cannot be hot-unplugged.

* src/nodeinfo.c (linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate): Ignore CPUs that are
currently offline.  Detect readdir failure.
(parse_socket): Move guts...
(get_cpu_value): ...to new function, shared with...
(cpu_online): New function.

device_del command is not synchronous for PCI devices, it merely asks
the guest to release the device and returns. If the host wants to use
that device before the guest actually releases it, we are in big
trouble. To avoid this, we already added a loop which waits up to 10
seconds until the device is actually released before we do anything else
with that device. But we only added this loop for managed PCI devices
before we try reattach them back to the host.

However, we need to wait even for non-managed devices. We don't reattach
them automatically, but we still want to prevent the host from using it.
This was revealed thanks to sVirt: when we relabel sysfs files
corresponding to the PCI device before the guest finished releasing the
device, qemu is no longer allowed to access those files and if it wants
(as a result of guest's request) to write anything to them, it just
exits, which kills the guest.

This is not a proper fix and needs some further work both on libvirt and
qemu side in the future.

This avoids building the tests when testing libvirt is not the aim.

	gopts.var('bootargs', val='NAME',

the "bootloader_args" parameter needs to be translated into "bootargs"
when using "virsh domxml-to-native xen-xm".
The reverse direction (domxml-from-native) is already okay.

This patch fixes domxml-to-native and adds two test files to catch this

src/phyp/phyp_driver.c:phypListDomainsGeneric was crashing due to a buffer
overflow if any line returned from virRun wasn't <=10 characters.

Since virStrToLong_i recognizes any non-numeric as a terminator (not
just NULL), there actually is no need to copy the number into a
separate string anyway, so this patch eliminates that copy, the fixed
length buffer, and therefore the potential to overflow.

This change also provided the oppurtunity to eliminate the character
counting loop, instead using the return from virStrToLong_i to point
past the end of the number, then simply skip the \n to get to the
next.

Since the rule to build libvirtd.8 is within the WITH_LIBVIRTD conditional,
so declare the man page in there as well. Without this change, build
without daemon will fail.

There has been a frequent complaint of:

make[2]: Entering directory `/home/remote/eblake/libvirt/po'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/config.status', needed by `Makefile'.  Stop.

It happens after nuking and regenerating the po directory,
which is a common action after running anything like
'make dist' or 'make rpm' that dirties all the .po files.

Teach autogen.sh that it must regenerate po/Makevars to avoid
the missing variable declaration, and teach cfg.mk to recognize
that a nuked po directory is cause to rerun autogen.sh.

* cfg.mk (_update_required): Check for po/Makevars.
* autogen.sh (bootstrap): Run bootstrap if it got lost.

Patch version revamped by Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> of Jiri
Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com> original patch

When attaching a PCI device which doesn't explicitly set its PCI
address, libvirt allocates the address automatically. The problem is
that when checking which PCI address is unused, we only check for those
with slot number higher than the highest slot number ever used.

Thus attaching/detaching such device several times in a row (31 is the
theoretical limit, less then 30 tries are enough in practise) makes any
further device attachment fail. Furthermore, attaching a device with
predefined PCI address to 0:0:31 immediately forbids attachment of any
PCI device without explicit address.

This patch changes the logic so that we always check all PCI addresses
before we say there is no PCI address available.

Modifications from v1: revert back to remembering the last slot
reserved, but allow wraparound to not be limited by the end.
In this way, slots are still assigned in the same order as
before the patch, rather than filling in the gaps closest to
0 and risking making windows guests mad.

* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: fix pci reservation code to do a round-robbin
  check of all available PCI splot availability before failing.

* src/openvz/openvz_driver.c: implements openvzDomainSuspend and
  openvzDomainResume

Another gettext string with no format args sent to printf as a format string.

Now all storage pool types expose the target path.

Don't rely on summary.url anymore, because its value is different
between an esx:// and vpx:// connection. Use host.mountInfo.path
instead.

Don't fallback to lookup by UUID (actually lookup by absolute path)
in esxVI_LookupDatastoreByName when lookup by name fails. Add a
seperate function for this: esxVI_LookupDatastoreByAbsolutePath

Now a vpx:// connection has an explicitly specified host. This
allows to enabled several functions for a vpx:// connection
again, like host UUID, hostname, general node info, max vCPU
count, free memory, migration and defining new domains.

Lookup datacenter, compute resource, resource pool and host
system once and cache them. This simplifies the rest of the
code and reduces overall HTTP(S) traffic a bit.

esx:// and vpx:// can be mixed freely for a migration.

Ensure that migration source and destination refer to the
same vCenter. Also directly encode the resource pool and
host system object IDs into the migration URI in the prepare
function. Then directly build managed object references in
the perform function instead of re-looking up already known
information.

Datacenter, ComputeResource and HostSystem will be used for
simplified handling and caching.

The path will be used to specify the datacenter, compute resource
and host system to be used with a vpx:// connection.

Spotted by clang.  Regression introduced in commit e72cc3c1.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuConnectMonitor): Don't lose error status.

* tools/virsh.c (vshParseArgv): Drop spurious argument to printf.

- a pure typo error and a wrong command referenced in an error message.

it was using atoi direct without checking leading to confusion
in case of flag error for example with -c

  unchecked atoi used to parse teh parameter

This patch attempts to take advantage of a newly added netfilter
module to correct for a problem with some guest DHCP client
implementations when used in conjunction with a DHCP server run on the
host systems with packet checksum offloading enabled.

The problem is that, when the guest uses a RAW socket to read the DHCP
response packets, the checksum hasn't yet been fixed by the IP stack,
so it is incorrect.

The fix implemented here is to add a rule to the POSTROUTING chain of
the mangle table in iptables that fixes up the checksum for packets on
the virtual network's bridge that are destined for the bootpc port (ie
"dhcpc", ie port 68) port on the guest.

Only very new versions of iptables will have this support (it will be
in the next upstream release), so a failure to add this rule only
results in a warning message. The iptables patch is here:

  http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/58525/

A corresponding kernel module patch is also required (the backend of
the iptables patch) and that will be in the next release of the
kernel.
