Michal Privoznik 921c52b0db Introduce GIC feature
Some platforms, like aarch64, don't have APIC but GIC. So there's
no reason to have <apic/> feature turned on. However, we are
still missing <gic/> feature. This commit introduces the feature
to XML parser and formatter, adds documentation and updates RNG
schema.

Marc-André Lureau 208abbcbd7 docs: add domain vmport feature
A new feature that can be turned on or off.

The QEMU machine vmport option allows to set the VMWare IO port
emulation. This emulation is useful for absolute pointer input when the
guest has vmware input drivers, and is enabled by default for kvm.

However it is unnecessary for Spice-enabled VM, since the agent already
handles absolute pointer and multi-monitors. Furthermore, it prevents
Spice from switching to relative input since the regular ps/2 pointer
driver is replaced by the vmware driver. It is thus advised to disable
vmport when using a Spice VM. This will permit the Spice client to
switch from absolute to relative pointer, as it may be required for
certain games or applications.

Cole Robinson 066f7c7c3a domain: conf: Drop unused OSTYPE_AIX
The phyp driver stuffed it into a DomainDefPtr during its attachdevice
routine, but the value is never advertised via capabilities so it should
be safe to drop.

Have the phyp driver use OSTYPE_LINUX, which is what it advertises via
capabilities.

John Ferlan 4dec8a0160 conf: Adjust the iothreadsched expectations

John Ferlan 93383c1ffa conf: Add new domain XML element 'iothreadids'
Adding a new XML element 'iothreadids' in order to allow defining
specific IOThread ID's rather than relying on the algorithm to assign
IOThread ID's starting at 1 and incrementing to iothreads count.

This will allow future patches to be able to add new IOThreads by
a specific iothread_id and of course delete any exisiting IOThread.

Each iothreadids element will have 'n' <iothread> children elements
which will have attribute "id".  The "id" will allow for definition
of any "valid" (eg > 0) iothread_id value.

On input, if any <iothreadids> <iothread>'s are provided, they will
be marked so that we only print out what we read in.

On input, if no <iothreadids> are provided, the PostParse code will
self generate a list of ID's starting at 1 and going to the number
of iothreads defined for the domain (just like the current algorithm
numbering scheme).  A future patch will rework the existing algorithm
to make use of the iothreadids list.

On output, only print out the <iothreadids> if they were read in.

Daniel P. Berrange 615bdfda07 rng: fix port number range validation
The PortNumber data type is declared to derive from 'short'.
Unfortunately this is an signed type, so validates the range
[-32,768, 32,767] which excludes valid port numbers between
32767 and 65535.

We can't use 'unsignedShort', since we need -1 to be a valid
port number too.

This change is to use 'int' and set an explicit max boundary
instead of relying on the data types' built-in max.

One of the existing tests is changed to use a high port number
to validate the schema.

    <size unit='KiB'>524287</size>
    <node>0</node>

  <target>

supported.

Midonet is an opensource virtual networking that over lays the IP

with the openvswitch virtualport type.

This patch, defines the schema and documentation that will serve
as basis for the follow up patches that will add support to libvirt

definition requires that the port profile expresses its interfaceid
as part of the port profile. For that reason, this is part of the

Martin Kletzander ad69e8be4a conf: Use correct type for balloon stats period
We're parsing memballoon status period as unsigned int, but when we're
trying to set it, both we and qemu use signed int.  That means large

Basically the same problem as commit e3a7b874 was dealing with when
updating live domain.

QEMU changed the accepted value to int64 in commit 1f9296b5, but even
values as INT_MAX don't make sense since the value passed means seconds.

Peter Krempa 4bca6192f2 conf: Make specifying <memory> optional
Now that the size of guest's memory can be inferred from the NUMA
configuration (if present) make it optional to specify <memory>
explicitly.

To make sure that memory is specified add a check that some form of
memory size was specified. One side effect of this change is that it is
no longer possible to specify 0KiB as memory size for the VM, but I
don't think it would be any useful to do so. (I can imagine embedded
systems without memory, just registers, but that's far from what libvirt
is usually doing).

Forbidding 0 memory for guests also fixes a few corner cases where 0 was
not interpreted correctly and caused failures. (Arguments for numad when
using automatic placement, size of the balloon). This fixes problems
described in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1161461

Test case changes are added to verify that the schema change and code
behave correctly.

Pavel Hrdina cf521fc8ba memtune: change the way how we store unlimited value
There was a mess in the way how we store unlimited value for memory
limits and how we handled values provided by user.  Internally there
were two possible ways how to store unlimited value: as 0 value or as
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED.  Because we chose to store memory
limits as unsigned long long, we cannot use -1 to represent unlimited.
It's much easier for us to say that everything greater than
VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED means unlimited and leave 0 as valid
value despite that it makes no sense to set limit to 0.

Remove unnecessary function virCompareLimitUlong.  The update of test
is to prevent the 0 to be miss-used as unlimited in future.

Michal Privoznik bbd3eb5098 conf: Don't mangle vcpu placement randomly
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1170492

In one of our previous commits (dc8b7ce7) we've done a functional
change even though it was intended as pure refactor. The problem is,
that the following XML:

 <vcpu placement='static' current='2'>6</vcpu>
 <cputune>
   <emulatorpin cpuset='1-3'/>
 </cputune>
 <numatune>
   <memory mode='strict' placement='auto'/>
 </numatune>

gets translated into this one:

 <vcpu placement='auto' current='2'>6</vcpu>
 <cputune>
   <emulatorpin cpuset='1-3'/>
 </cputune>
 <numatune>
   <memory mode='strict' placement='auto'/>
 </numatune>

We should not change the vcpu placement mode. Moreover, we're doing
something similar in case of emulatorpin and iothreadpin. If they were
set, but vcpu placement was auto, we've mistakenly removed them from
the domain XML even though we are able to set them independently on
vcpus.

Michal Privoznik 5222256849 schemas: Allow all generic elements and attributes for all interfaces
There are some interface types (notably 'server' and 'client')
which instead of allowing the default set of elements and
attributes (like the rest do), try to enumerate only the elements
they know of. This way it's, however, easy to miss something. For
instance, the <address/> element was not mentioned at all. This
resulted in a strange behavior: when such interface was added
into XML, the address was automatically generated by parsing
code. Later, the formatted XML hasn't passed the RNG schema. This
became more visible once we've turned on the XML validation on
domain XML changes: appending an empty line at the end of
formatted XML (to trick virsh think the XML had changed) made
libvirt to refuse the very same XML it formatted.

Instead of trying to find each element and attribute we are
missing in the schema, lets just allow all the elements and
attributes like we're doing that for the rest of types. It's no
harm if the schema is wider than our parser allows.

Josh Stone 298fa4858c network: Let domains be restricted to local DNS
This adds a new "localOnly" attribute on the domain element of the
network xml.  With this set to "yes", DNS requests under that domain
will only be resolved by libvirt's dnsmasq, never forwarded upstream.

This was how it worked before commit f69a6b987d, and I found that
functionality useful.  For example, I have my host's NetworkManager
dnsmasq configured to forward that domain to libvirt's dnsmasq, so I can
easily resolve guest names from outside.  But if libvirt's dnsmasq
doesn't know a name and forwards it to the host, I'd get an endless
forwarding loop.  Now I can set localOnly="yes" to prevent the loop.

Laine Stump 40961978ee conf: new network bridge device attribute macTableManager
The macTableManager attribute of a network's bridge subelement tells
libvirt how the bridge's MAC address table (used to determine the
egress port for packets) is managed. In the default mode, "kernel",
management is left to the kernel, which usually determines entries in
part by turning on promiscuous mode on all ports of the bridge,
flooding packets to all ports when the correct destination is unknown,
and adding/removing entries to the fdb as it sees incoming traffic
from particular MAC addresses.  In "libvirt" mode, libvirt turns off
learning and flooding on all the bridge ports connected to guest
domain interfaces, and adds/removes entries according to the MAC
addresses in the domain interface configurations. A side effect of
turning off learning and unicast_flood on the ports of a bridge is
that (with Linux kernel 3.17 and newer), the kernel can automatically
turn off promiscuous mode on one or more of the bridge's ports
(usually only the one interface that is used to connect the bridge to
the physical network). The result is better performance (because
packets aren't being flooded to all ports, and can be dropped earlier
when they are of no interest) and slightly better security (a guest
can still send out packets with a spoofed source MAC address, but will
only receive traffic intended for the guest interface's configured MAC
address).

The attribute looks like this in the configuration:

  <network>
    <name>test</name>
    <bridge name='br0' macTableManager='libvirt'/>
    ...

This patch only adds the config knob, documentation, and test
cases. The functionality behind this knob is added in later patches.

The virStoragePoolSourceFindDuplicate only checks the incoming definition
against the same type of pool as the def; however, for "scsi_host" and
"fc_host" adapter pools, it's possible that either some pool "scsi_host"
adapter definition is already using the scsi_hostN that the "fc_host"
adapter definition wants to use or some "fc_host" pool adapter definition
is using a vHBA scsi_hostN or parent scsi_hostN that an incoming "scsi_host"
definition is trying to use.

This patch adds the mismatched type checks and adds extraneous comments
to describe what each check is determining.

This patch also modifies the documentation to be describe what scsi_hostN
devices a "scsi_host" source adapter should use and which to avoid. It also
updates the parent definition to specifically call out that for mixed
environments it's better to define which parent to use so that the duplicate
pool checks can be done properly.
