Lookup the domain capabilities CPU model and compare with
the host capabilities CPU model and if they are not equal
set the guest's CPU model to None.
(crobinso: compare against 'custom' list not 'host-model', move
to separate function)
non-treeinfo redhat only applies to pre RHEL5.4 and very old
Fedora. It's not worth it anymore to slow down all URL lookups
and maintain code complexity to handle such long out of date
distros.
GenericDistro doesn't actually apply to any public trees that I
can find, except for some with TreeInfo. So turn it into
GenericTreeinfoDistro. If random URL trees want to work with
virt-install, add a treeinfo file
Right now, most test cases will create a libvirt test driver using
tests/testdriver.xml. This is problematic for 2 reasons:
1) testdriver.xml is 3500 lines of XML, and it's parsed hundreds of
times. Opening it is responsible for about 25% of test suite time
2) Older libvirt chokes on testdriver.xml, meaning the test suite will
be useless there. This is a recurring problem as new features are
added to testdriver.xml
Most test cases don't actually need all the test state in testdriver.xml
though. So this creates a smaller testsuite.xml which has a lower
libvirt requirement and is much quicker to parse. New XML bits should
continue to go into testdriver.xml so we can keep testsuite.xml as
the more stripped down option.
Moves the libxml2 bits to a separate xmlapi file and class, a bunch
of cleanups to xmlbuilder internals dealing with XML stuff.
The main point is to experiment with different XML library impls,
since libxml2 is unfun to deal with and we are having python3
issues like

Add vcpupin support to virt-install so that it can create guest
domains with statically allocated vcpu pinning towards a given cpuset.
Syntax: to pin vcpu=0 to cpuset="1,3" and vcpu=1 to cpuset=2
--cputune vcpupin0.vcpu=0,vcpupin0.cpuset=1,3,vcpupin1.vcpu=1,vcpupin1.cpuset=2
generates below XML description for the guest domain.
<cputune>
<vcpupin vcpu="0" cpuset="1,3"/>
<vcpupin vcpu="1" cpuset="2"/>
</cputune>

Now that libvirt has support for administration of distances between NUMA cells
it would be nice to be able to set those with virt-install directly instead of
having to 'virsh edit' the domain XML manually after installation.
For example
--cpu cell0.memory=1234,cell0.cpus=0-3,cell1.memory=5678,cell1.cpus=4-7,\
cell0.distances.sibling0.id=0,cell0.distances.sibling0.value=10,\
cell0.distances.sibling1.id=1,cell0.distances.sibling1.value=21,\
cell1.distances.sibling0.id=0,cell1.distances.sibling0.value=21,\
cell1.distances.sibling1.id=1,cell1.distances.sibling1.value=10
would generate the following XML:
<cpu>
<numa>
<cell cpus="0-3" memory="1234">
<distances>
<sibling id="0" value="10"/>
<sibling id="1" value="21"/>
</distances>
</cell>
<cell cpus="4-7" memory="5678">
<distances>
<sibling id="0" value="21"/>
<sibling id="1" value="10"/>
</distances>
</cell>
</numa>
</cpu>

libvirt supports guest CPU cache by commit df13c0b, So add this feature
to virt-install to configure cpu L3 cache mode.
Currently, The valid values are 'passthrough', 'emulate' or 'disable'.
say:
--cpu host-passthrough,cache.mode=passthrough
or
--cpu $CPU,cache.mode=emulate,cache.level=3
or
--cpu $CPU,cache.mode=disable

Using "listens.*" allows better configuration of listen elements for
graphics devices. Currently the only way how to configure a listen
type is to abuse "listen" parameter and there is no way how to configure
exact "network".

The default port and tlsPort should be configured only if no listen
type was specified or the listen type is "address" or "network".
For other listen types the port and tlsPort doesn't make sense.

There are multiple models of the panic device, the address type is only
one and is valid only for "isa" model.
To not break the virt-install/virt-xml the command line parser needs to
be updated. Before this patch there was only one parameter that
configured the "iobase". Now the first parameter configures a model
but to keep it backward compatible it follows these rules:
1. there is only one parameter and it matches known model:
--panic isa
<panic model='isa'>
<address iobase='0x505' type='isa'/>
</panic>
2. there is only one parameter and it doesn't match any model:
--panic 0x505
<panic model='isa'>
<address iobase='0x505' type='isa'/>
</panic>
3. there are two parameters:
--panic isa,iobase=0x505
<panic model='isa'>
<address iobase='0x505' type='isa'/>
</panic>

If we detect that the UEFI image is build to require SMM feature we
should configure the guest to enable SMM feature and set q35 machine
type. Without this user wouldn't be able to boot the guest.

This element controls hot(un)plugable memory for the guest in
addition to the initial memory configured by <memory> element.
One has to configure <maxMemory> and guest numa nodes using <numa>
element to enable hot(un)plug of memory modules.
