This is not a good idea in general, but we can (and have to) do it in
specific cases when a feature has always been part of a CPU model in
hypervisor's definition, but we ignored it and did not include the
feature in our definition.
Blindly adding the features to the CPU map and not adding them to
existing CPU models breaks migration between old and new libvirt in both
directions. New libvirt would complain the features got unexpectedly
enabled (as they were not mentioned in the incoming domain XML) even
though they were also enabled on the source and the old libvirt just
didn't know about them. On the other hand, old libvirt would refuse to
accept incoming migration of a domain started by new libvirt because the
domain XML would contain CPU features unknown to the old libvirt.
This is exactly what happened when several vmx-* features were added a
few releases back. Migration between libvirt releases before and after
the addition is now broken.
This patch adds support for added these features to existing CPU models
by marking them with added='yes'. The features will not be considered
part of the CPU model and will be described explicitly via additional
<feature/> elements, but the compatibility check will not complain if
they are enabled by the hypervisor even though they were not explicitly
mentioned in the CPU definition and incoming migration from old libvirt
will succeed.
To fix outgoing migration to old libvirt, we also need to drop all those
features from domain XML unless they were explicitly requested by the
user. This will be handled by a later patch.

Historically, we declared pointer type to our types:
typedef struct _virXXX virXXX;
typedef virXXX *virXXXPtr;
But usefulness of such declaration is questionable, at best.
Unfortunately, we can't drop every such declaration - we have to
carry some over, because they are part of public API (e.g.
virDomainPtr). But for internal types - we can do drop them and
use what every other C project uses 'virXXX *'.
This change was generated by a very ugly shell script that
generated sed script which was then called over each file in the

In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.
In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.
With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to find the
author of a particular bit of code.
This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.
The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

Even though only family and model are used for matching CPUID data with
CPU models from cpu_map.xml, stepping is used by x86DataFilterTSX which
is supposed to disable TSX on CPU models with broken TSX support. Thus
we need to start parsing stepping from QEMU to make sure we don't
disable TSX on CPUs which provide working TSX implementation. See the
following patch for a real world example of such CPU.

The CPU driver provides APIs to create and free virCPUDataPtr. Thus all
APIs exported from the driver should work with that rather than
requiring the caller to pass a pointer to an internal part of the
structure.

virCPUData, virCPUx86Feature, and virCPUx86Model all contained a pointer
to virCPUx86Data, which was not very nice since the real CPUID data were
accessible by yet another pointer from virCPUx86Data. Moreover, using
virCPUx86Data directly will make static definitions of internal CPU
features a bit easier.

Each driver supporting CPU selection must fill in host CPU capabilities.
When filling them, drivers for hypervisors running on the same node as
libvirtd can use cpuNodeData() to obtain raw CPU data. Other drivers,
such as VMware, need to implement their own way of getting such data.
Raw data can be decoded into virCPUDefPtr using cpuDecode() function.
When implementing virConnectCompareCPU(), a hypervisor driver can just
call cpuCompareXML() function with host CPU capabilities.
For each guest for which a driver supports selecting CPU models, it must
set the appropriate feature in guest's capabilities:
virCapabilitiesAddGuestFeature(guest, "cpuselection", 1, 0)
Actions needed when a domain is being created depend on whether the
hypervisor understands raw CPU data (currently CPUID for i686, x86_64
architectures) or symbolic names has to be used.
Typical use by hypervisors which prefer CPUID (such as VMware and Xen):
- convert guest CPU configuration from domain's XML into a set of raw
data structures each representing one of the feature policies:
cpuEncode(conn, architecture, guest_cpu_config,
&forced_data, &required_data, &optional_data,
&disabled_data, &forbidden_data)
- create a mask or whatever the hypervisor expects to see and pass it
to the hypervisor
Typical use by hypervisors with symbolic model names (such as QEMU):
- get raw CPU data for a computed guest CPU:
cpuGuestData(conn, host_cpu, guest_cpu_config, &data)
- decode raw data into virCPUDefPtr with a possible restriction on
allowed model names:
cpuDecode(conn, guest, data, n_allowed_models, allowed_models)
- pass guest->model and guest->features to the hypervisor
