This patch maps /domain/cpu/cache element into -cpu parameters:
- <cache mode='passthrough'/> is translated to host-cache-info=on
- <cache level='3' mode='emulate'/> is transformed into l3-cache=on
- <cache mode='disable'/> is turned in host-cache-info=off,l3-cache=off
Any other <cache> element is forbidden.
The tricky part is detecting whether QEMU supports the CPU properties.
The 'host-cache-info' property is introduced in v2.4.0-1389-ge265e3e480,
earlier QEMU releases enabled host-cache-info by default and had no way
to disable it. If the property is present, it defaults to 'off' for any
QEMU until at least 2.9.0.
The 'l3-cache' property was introduced later by v2.7.0-200-g14c985cffa.
Earlier versions worked as if l3-cache=off was passed. For any QEMU
until at least 2.9.0 l3-cache is 'off' by default.
QEMU 2.9.0 was the first release which supports probing both properties
by running device-list-properties with typename=host-x86_64-cpu. Older
QEMU releases did not support device-list-properties command for CPU
devices. Thus we can't really rely on probing them and we can just use
query-cpu-model-expansion QMP command as a witness.
Because the cache property probing is only reliable for QEMU >= 2.9.0
when both are already supported for quite a few releases, we let QEMU
report an error if a specific cache mode is explicitly requested. The
other mode (or both if a user requested CPU cache to be disabled) is
explicitly turned off for QEMU >= 2.9.0 to avoid any surprises in case
the QEMU defaults change. Any older QEMU already turns them off so not
doing so explicitly does not make any harm.

Migration with old QEMU which does not support query-migrate-parameters
would fail because the QMP command is called unconditionally since the
introduction of TLS migration. Previously it was only called if the user
explicitly requested a feature which uses QEMU migration parameters. And
even then the situation was not ideal, instead of reporting an
unsupported feature we'd just complain about missing QMP command.
Trivially no migration parameters are supported when
query-migrate-parameters QMP command is missing. There's no need to
report an error if it is missing, the callers will report better error
if needed.

With QEMU older than 2.9.0 libvirt uses CPUID instruction to determine
what CPU features are supported on the host. This was later used when
checking compatibility of guest CPUs. Since QEMU 2.9.0 we ask QEMU for
the host CPU data. But the two methods we use usually provide disjoint
sets of CPU features because QEMU/KVM does not support all features
provided by the host CPU and on the other hand it can enable some
feature even if the host CPU does not support them.
So if there is a domain which requires a CPU features disabled by
QEMU/KVM, libvirt will refuse to start it with QEMU > 2.9.0 as its guest
CPU is incompatible with the host CPU data we got from QEMU. But such
domain would happily start on older QEMU (of course, the features would
be missing the guest CPU). To fix this regression, we need to combine
both CPU feature sets when checking guest CPU compatibility.

qemuProcessVerifyHypervFeatures is supposed to check whether all
requested hyperv features were actually honored by QEMU/KVM. This is
done by checking the corresponding CPUID bits reported by the virtual
CPU. In other words, it doesn't work for string properties, such as
VIR_DOMAIN_HYPERV_VENDOR_ID (there is no CPUID bit we could check). We
could theoretically check all 96 bits corresponding to the vendor
string, but luckily we don't have to check the feature at all. If QEMU
is too old to support hyperv features, the domain won't even start.
Otherwise, it is always supported.
Without this patch, libvirt refuses to start a domain which contains
<features>
<hyperv>
<vendor_id state='on' value='...'/>
</hyperv>
</features>
reporting internal error: "unknown CPU feature __kvm_hv_vendor_id.
This regression was introduced by commit v3.1.0-186-ge9dbe7011, which
(by fixing the virCPUDataCheckFeature condition in
qemuProcessVerifyHypervFeatures) revealed an old bug in the feature
verification code. It's been there ever since the verification was
implemented by commit v1.3.3-rc1-5-g95bbe4bf5, which effectively did not
check VIR_DOMAIN_HYPERV_VENDOR_ID at all.

CPU features which change their value from disabled to enabled between
two calls to query-cpu-model-expansion (the first with no extra
properties set and the second with 'migratable' property set to false)
can be marked as enabled and non-migratable in qemuMonitorCPUModelInfo.
Since the code consuming qemuMonitorCPUModelInfo currently ignores the
migratable flag, this change is effectively changing the CPU model
advertised in domain capabilities to contain all features (even those
which block migration). And this matches what we do for QEMU older than
2.9.0, when we detect all CPUID bits ourselves without asking QEMU.
As a result of this change
<cpu mode='host-model'>

The test takes
x86-cpuid-Something-guest.xml CPU (the CPU libvirt would use for
host-model on a CPU described by x86_64-cpuid-Something.xml without
talking to QEMU about what it supports on the host)
and updates it according to CPUID data from QEMU:
x86_64-cpuid-Something-enabled.xml (reported as "feature-words"
property of the CPU device)
and
x86_64-cpuid-Something-disabled.xml (reported as "filtered-features"
property of the CPU device).
The result is compared to
x86_64-cpuid-Something-json.xml (the CPU libvirt would use as
host-model based on the reply from query-cpu-model-expansion).
The comparison is a bit tricky because the *-json.xml CPU contains fewer
disabled features. Only the features which are included in the base CPU
model, but listed as disabled in *.json will be disabled in *-json.xml.
The CPU computed by virCPUUpdateLive from the test data will list all
features present in the host's CPUID data and not enabled in *.json as
disabled. The cpuTestUpdateLiveCompare function checks that the computed
and expected sets of enabled features match.

Signed-off-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar@redhat.com>
When starting a domain with custom guest CPU specification QEMU may add
or remove some CPU features. There are several reasons for this, e.g.,
QEMU/KVM does not support some requested features or the definition of
the requested CPU model in libvirt's cpu_map.xml differs from the one
QEMU is using. We can't really avoid this because CPU models are allowed
to change with machine types and libvirt doesn't know (and probably
doesn't even want to know) about such changes.
Thus when we want to make sure guest ABI doesn't change when a domain
gets migrated to another host, we need to update our live CPU definition
according to the CPU QEMU created. Once updated, we will change CPU
checking to VIR_CPU_CHECK_FULL to make sure the virtual CPU created
after migration exactly matches the one on the source.

One of the main reasons for introducing host-model CPU definition in a
domain capabilities XML was the inability to express disabled features
in a host capabilities XML. That is, when a host CPU is, e.g., Haswell
without x2apic support, host capabilities XML will have to report it as
Westmere + a bunch of additional features., but we really want to use
Haswell - x2apic when creating a host-model CPU.
Unfortunately, I somehow forgot to do the last step and the code would
just copy the CPU definition found in the host capabilities XML. This
changed recently for new QEMU versions which allow us to query host CPU,
but any slightly older QEMU will not benefit from any change I did. This
