Pass graphics setup from dst back to src via migration cookies
Extend the QEMU migration cookie structure to allow information
about the destination host graphics setup to be passed by to
the source host. This will enable seamless migration of any
connected graphics clients
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c: Add graphics info to migration
cookies
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Always initialize gnutls to enable
x509 cert parsing in QEMU
The migration protocol has support for a 'cookie' parameter which
is an opaque array of bytes as far as libvirt is concerned. Drivers
may use this for passing around arbitrary extra data they might
need during migration. The QEMU driver needs to do a few things:
- Pass hostname/uuid to allow strict protection against localhost
migration attempts
- Pass SPICE/VNC server port from the target back to the source to
allow seamless relocation of client sessions
- Pass lock driver state from source to destination
This patch introduces the basic glue for handling cookies
but only includes the host/guest UUID & name.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virXMLParseStrHelper
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/qemu/qemu_migration.h: Parsing
and formatting of migration cookies
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Pass in cookie parameters where possible
* src/remote/remote_protocol.h, src/remote/remote_protocol.x: Change
cookie max length to 16384 bytes
Migration just seems to go from bad to worse. We already had to
introduce a second migration protocol when adding the QEMU driver,
since the one from Xen was insufficiently flexible to cope with
passing the data the QEMU driver required.
It turns out that this protocol still has some flaws that we
need to address. The current sequence is
* Src: DumpXML
- Generate XML to pass to dst
* Dst: Prepare
- Get ready to accept incoming VM
- Generate optional cookie to pass to src
* Src: Perform
- Start migration and wait for send completion
- Kill off VM if successful, resume if failed
* Dst: Finish
- Wait for recv completion and check status
- Kill off VM if unsuccessful
The problems with this are:
- Since the first step is a generic 'DumpXML' call, we can't
add in other migration specific data. eg, we can't include
any VM lease data from lock manager plugins
- Since the first step is a generic 'DumpXML' call, we can't
emit any 'migration begin' event on the source, or have
any hook that runs right at the start of the process
- Since there is no final step on the source, if the Finish
method fails to receive all migration data & has to kill
the VM, then there's no way to resume the original VM
on the source
This patch attempts to introduce a version 3 that uses the
improved 5 step sequence
* Src: Begin
- Generate XML to pass to dst
- Generate optional cookie to pass to dst
* Dst: Prepare
- Get ready to accept incoming VM
- Generate optional cookie to pass to src
* Src: Perform
- Start migration and wait for send completion
- Generate optional cookie to pass to dst
* Dst: Finish
- Wait for recv completion and check status
- Kill off VM if failed, resume if success
- Generate optional cookie to pass to src
* Src: Confirm
- Kill off VM if success, resume if failed
The API is designed to allow both input and output cookies
in all methods where applicable. This lets us pass around
arbitrary extra driver specific data between src & dst during
migration. Combined with the extra 'Begin' method this lets
us pass lease information from source to dst at the start of
migration
Moving the killing of the source VM out of Perform and
into Confirm, means we can now recover if the dst host
can't successfully Finish receiving migration data.
Automatically generate the hvsupport.html.in file from source files
The hvsupport.html.in file is forever out of date. By annotating
the driver struct tables in each driver with version information,
we can auto-generate the hvsupport.html.in file. Annotating the
drivers will be mandatory for new patches, ensuring hvsupport.html.in
is never out of date again.
Convert all driver struct intializers to C99 style
Change all the driver struct initializers to use the
C99 style, leaving out unused fields. This will make
it possible to add new APIs without changing every
driver. eg change:

Implement domain state reason
Only in drivers which use virDomainObj, drivers that query hypervisor
for domain status need to be updated separately in case their hypervisor
supports this functionality.
The reason is also saved into domain state XML so if a domain is not
running (i.e., no state XML exists) the reason will be lost by libvirtd
restart. I think this is an acceptable limitation.

domain: Require <init> for container guests
Use capabilities to allow a driver to register a default <init> if none
is specified in the XML. Openvz was already open-coding this to be /sbin/init
LXC currently falls over if no init is specified, so an explicit error is
an improvement IMO.
(Side note: I don't think we can set a default value for LXC. If we use
/sbin/init but the user doesn't specify a separate root FS for their guest,
the container will rerun the host's init which can be traumatic :). For
virt-install I'm thinking of defaulting to /sbin/init if a root FS has
been specified, otherwise require the user to manually specify <init>)

(from glibc NEWS)
Thus with recent glibc, we need to try linking with -ltirpc when looking
for the XDR functions. The daemon also needs to use XDR_CFLAGS to be able
to find the XDR headers stored in /usr/include/tirpc.

the fix probably belongs in other modules:
