snapshot: Don't expose testsuite-only state in snapshot XML
None of the existing drivers actually use the 0-valued 'nostate'
snapshot state; rather, it was a fluke of implementation. In fact,
some drivers, like qemu, actively reject 'nostate' as invalid during a
snapshot redefine. Normally, a driver computes the state post-parse
from the current domain, and thus virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc() will
never expose the state. However, since the testsuite lacks any
associated domain to copy state from, and lacks post-parse processing
that normal drivers have, the testsuite output had several spots with
the state, coupled with a regex filter to ignore the oddity.
It is better to follow the lead of other XML defaults, by not
outputting anything during format if post-parse defaults have not been
applied, and rejecting the default value during parsing. The testsuite
needs a bit of an update, by adding another flag for when to simulate
a post-parse action of setting a snapshot state, but none of the
drivers are impacted other than rejecting XML that was previously
already suspicious in nature.
Similarly, don't expose creation time 0 (for now, only possible if a
user redefined a snapshot to claim creation at the Epoch, but also
happens once setting the creation time is deferred to a post-parse
handler).
This is also a step towards cleaning up snapshot_conf.c to separate
its existing post-parse work (namely, setting the creationTime and
default snapshot name) from the pure parsing work, so that we can get
rid of the testsuite hack of regex filtering of the XML and instead
have more accurate testing of our parser/formatter code.

PPC64 support for NVIDIA V100 GPU with NVLink2 passthrough
The NVIDIA V100 GPU has an onboard RAM that is mapped into the
host memory and accessible as normal RAM via an NVLink2 bridge. When
passed through in a guest, QEMU puts the NVIDIA RAM window in a
non-contiguous area, above the PCI MMIO area that starts at 32TiB.
This means that the NVIDIA RAM window starts at 64TiB and go all the
way to 128TiB.
This means that the guest might request a 64-bit window, for each PCI
Host Bridge, that goes all the way to 128TiB. However, the NVIDIA RAM
window isn't counted as regular RAM, thus this window is considered
only for the allocation of the Translation and Control Entry (TCE).
For more information about how NVLink2 support works in QEMU,
refer to the accepted implementation [1].
This memory layout differs from the existing VFIO case, requiring its
own formula. This patch changes the PPC64 code of
@qemuDomainGetMemLockLimitBytes to:
- detect if we have a NVLink2 bridge being passed through to the
guest. This is done by using the @ppc64VFIODeviceIsNV2Bridge function
added in the previous patch. The existence of the NVLink2 bridge in
the guest means that we are dealing with the NVLink2 memory layout;
- if an IBM NVLink2 bridge exists, passthroughLimit is calculated in a
different way to account for the extra memory the TCE table can alloc.
The 64TiB..128TiB window is more than enough to fit all possible
GPUs, thus the memLimit is the same regardless of passing through 1 or
multiple V100 GPUs.

qemu_domain: NVLink2 bridge detection function for PPC64
The NVLink2 support in QEMU implements the detection of NVLink2
capable devices by verifying the attributes of the VFIO mem region
QEMU allocates for the NVIDIA GPUs. To properly allocate an
adequate amount of memLock, Libvirt needs this information before
a QEMU instance is even created, thus querying QEMU is not
possible and opening a VFIO window is too much.
An alternative is presented in this patch. Making the following
assumptions:
- if we want GPU RAM to be available in the guest, an NVLink2 bridge
must be passed through;
- an unknown PCI device can be classified as a NVLink2 bridge
if its device tree node has 'ibm,gpu', 'ibm,nvlink',
'ibm,nvlink-speed' and 'memory-region'.
This patch introduces a helper called @ppc64VFIODeviceIsNV2Bridge
that checks the device tree node of a given PCI device and
check if it meets the criteria to be a NVLink2 bridge. This
new function will be used in a follow-up patch that, using the
first assumption, will set up the rlimits of the guest
accordingly.
