We are automatically generating some socket paths for domains, but all
those paths end up in a directory that's the same for multiple domains.
The problem is that multiple domains can each run with different
seclabels (users, selinux contexts, etc.). The idea here is to create a
per-domain directory labelled in a way that each domain can access its
own unix sockets.
security_selinux: Use proper structure to access socket data

this should be fixed for the future.

When generating the default drive address for a SCSI <disk> device,
check the generated address to ensure it doesn't conflict with a SCSI
<hostdev> address. The <disk> address generation algorithm uses the
<target> "dev" name in order to determine which controller and unit
in order to place the device. Since a SCSI <hostdev> device doesn't
require a target device name, its placement on the guest SCSI address
"could" conflict. For instance, if a SCSI <hostdev> exists at
controller=0 unit=0 and an attempt to hotplug 'sda' into the guest
made, there would be a conflict if the <hostdev> is already using
/dev/sda.
If a SCSI subsystem <hostdev> element address is provided, we need to
make sure the address provided doesn't conflict with an existing or
libvirt generated address for a SCSI <disk> element. We can handle
this condition in device post processing since we're not generating an
address based on some target name - rather it's either generated based
on space or provided from the user. If the user provides one that conflicts,
then we need to disallow the change.
This will fix the issue where the domain XML provided an <address> for
the <hostdev>, but not the <disk> element where the address provided
ends up being the same address used for the <disk>. A <disk> address
is generated using it's assigned <target> 'dev' name prior to the
check/validation of the <hostdev> address value.

Unlike what happens on x86, on ppc64 you can't mix and match CPU
features to obtain the guest CPU you want regardless of the host
CPU, so the concept of model fallback doesn't apply.
Make sure CPU definitions emitted by the driver, eg. as output of
the cpuBaseline() and cpuUpdate() calls, reflect this fact.
cpu: Implement backwards compatibility in the ppc64 driver
All previously recognized CPU models (POWER7_v2.1, POWER7_v2.3,
POWER7+_v2.1 and POWER8_v1.0) are internally converted to the
corrisponding generation name so that existing guests don't stop
working.
Use multiple PVRs per CPU model to reduce the number of models we
need to keep track of.
Remove specific CPU models (eg. POWER7+_v2.1): the corresponding
generic CPU model (eg. POWER7) should be used instead to ensure
the guest can be booted on any compatible host.
Get rid of all the entries that did not match any of the CPU
models supported by QEMU, like power8 and power8e.
This will allow us to perform PVR matching more broadly, eg. consider
both POWER8 and POWER8E CPUs to be the same even though they have
different PVR values.
cpu: Use ppc64Compute() to implement ppc64DriverCompare()
This ensures comparison of two CPU definitions will be consistent
regardless of the fact that it is performed using cpuCompare() or
cpuGuestData(). The x86 driver uses the same exact code.
Limitations of the POWER architecture mean that you can't run
eg. a POWER7 guest on a POWER8 host when using KVM. This applies
to all guests, not just those using VIR_CPU_MATCH_STRICT in the
CPU definition; in fact, exact and strict CPU matching are
basically the same on ppc64.
This means, of course, that hosts using different CPUs have to be
considered incompatible as well.
Change ppc64Compute(), called by cpuGuestData(), to reflect this
fact and update test cases accordingly.
cpu: Never skip CPU model name check in ppc64 driver
ppc64Compute(), called by cpuNodeData(), is used not only to retrieve
the driver-specific data associated to a guest CPU definition, but
also to check whether said guest CPU is compatible with the host CPU.
If the user is not interested in the CPU data, it's perfectly fine
to pass a NULL pointer instead of a return location, and the
compatibility data returned should not be affected by this. One of
the checks, specifically the one on CPU model name, was however
only performed if the return location was non-NULL.
tests: Improve result handling in cpuTestGuestData()
A test is considered successful if the obtained result matches
the expected result: if that's not the case, whether because a
test that was expected to succeed failed or because a test that
was supposed to fail succeeded, then something's not right and
we want the user to know about this.
On the other hand, if a failure that's unrelated to the bits
we're testing occurs, then the user should be notified even if
the test was expected to fail.
Use different values to tell these two situations apart.
Fix a test case that was wrongly expected to fail as well.
Use briefer checks, eg. (!model) instead of (model == NULL), and
avoid initializing to NULL a pointer that would be assigned in
the first line of the function anyway.
Use the ppc64Driver prefix for all functions that are used to
fill in the cpuDriverPPC64 structure, ie. those that are going
to be called by the generic CPU code.
This makes it clear which functions are exported and which are
implementation details; it also gets rid of the ambiguity that
affected the ppc64DataFree() function which, despite what the
name suggested, was not related to ppc64DataCopy() and could
not be used to release the memory allocated for a
virCPUppc64Data* instance.
