This PR fixes bug introduced in #8502. Timeout for script execution was set to 60 ms instead of 60s which resulted in host not getting UEFI enabled. This is a blocker for 4.19 release.
We do this by introducing a new agent parameter `agent.script.timeout` (default - 60 seconds) to use as a timeout for the script checking host's UEFI status.
We also externalize the timeout for the ReadyCommand by introducing a new global setting `ready.command.wait` (default - 60 seconds).
For ModifyStoragePoolCommand, we don't externalize the timeout to avoid confusion for the user. Since, the required timeout can vary depending on the provider in use and we are only setting the wait for default host listener for now. Instead, we reuse the global `wait` setting by dividing it by `5` making the default value of 6 minutes (1800/5 = 360s) for ModifyStoragePoolCommand.
Note: the actual time, the MS waits is twice the wait set for a Command. Check reference code below.

This PR fixes moves resources stuck in transition state during async job cleanup
Problem:
During maintenance of the management server, other servers in the cluster or the same server after a restart initiate async job cleanup. However, this process leaves resources in a transitional state. The only recovery option currently available is to make direct database changes.
Solution:
This PR introduces a resolution by changing Volume, Virtual Machine, and Network resources from their transitional states. This adjustment enables the reattempt of failed operations without the need for manual database modifications.
There are a lot of test failures due to test_vm_life_cycle.py in multiple PRs due to host not available for migration of VMs.

While debugging I noticed that the hosts get stuck in Connecting state because MS is waiting for a response of the ReadyCommand from the agent. Since we take a lock on connection and disconnection, restarting the agent doesn't work. To fix this, we have to restart the MS or wait for ~1 hour (default timeout).
On the agent side, it gets stuck waiting for a response from the Script execution.
To reproduce, run smoke/test_vm_life_cycle.py (TestSecuredVmMigration test class to be specific). Once the tests are complete, you will notice that some hosts are stuck in Connecting state. And restarting the agent fails due to the named lock. Locks on DB can be checked using the below query.
SELECT *
FROM performance_schema.metadata_locks
INNER JOIN performance_schema.threads ON THREAD_ID = OWNER_THREAD_ID
WHERE PROCESSLIST_ID <> CONNECTION_ID() \G;
This PR adds a wait for the ready command and a timeout to the Script execution to ensure that the thread doesn't get stuck and the named lock from database is released.
This PR fixes reorder/list pools when cluster details are not set, while deploying vm / attaching volume.
Problem:
Attach volume to a VM fails, on infra with zone-wide pools & vm.allocation.algorithm=userdispersing as the cluster details are not set (passed as null) while reordering / listing pools by volumes.
Solution:
Ignore cluster details when not set, while reordering / listing pools by volumes.
1. Problem description
In Apache CloudStack (ACS), when a VM is deployed in a host with the KVM hypervisor, an XML file is created in the assigned host, which has a property shares that defines the weight of the VM to access the host CPU. The value of this property has no unit, and it is a relative measure to calculate how much CPU a given VM will have in the host. However, this value has a limit, which depends on the version of cgroup utilized by the host's kernel. The problem lies at the range value of shares that varies between both versions: [2, 264144] for cgroups version 1; and [1, 10000] for cgroups version 2. Currently, ACS calculates the value of shares using Equation 1, presented below, where CPU is the number of cores and speed is the CPU frequency; both specified in the VM's compute offering. Therefore, if a compute offering has, for example, 6 cores at 2 GHz, the shares value will be 12000 and an exception will be thrown by libvirt if the host utilizes cgroup v2. The second version is becoming the default one in current Linux distributions; thus, it is necessary to address this limitation.
Equation 1
shares = CPU * speed
Fixes: #6744
2. Proposed changes
To address the problem described, we propose to apply a scale conversion considering the max shares of the host. Using the same formula currently utilized by ACS, it is possible to calculate the maximum shares of a VM for a given host. In other words, using the number of cores and the nominal speed of the host's CPU as the upper limit of shares allowed to a VM. Then, this value will be scaled to the allowed interval of [1, 10000] of cgroup v2 by using a linear scale conversion.
The VM shares would be calculated as Equation 2, presented below, where VM requested shares is the requested shares value calculated using Equation 1, cgroup upper limit is fixed with a value of 10000 (cgroups v2 upper limit), and host max shares is the maximum shares value of the host, calculated using Equation 1. Using Equation 2, the only case where a VM passes the cgroup v2 limit is when the user requests more resources than the host has, which is not possible with the current implementation of ACS.
Equation 2
shares = (VM requested shares * cgroup upper limit)/host max shares
To implement the proposal, the following APIs will be updated: deployVirtualMachine, migrateVirtualMachine and scaleVirtualMachine. When a VM is being deployed, a new verification will be added to find a suitable host. The max shares of each host will be calculated, and the VM calculated shares will be verified if it does not surpass the host's value. Likewise, the migration of VMs will have a similar new verification. Lastly, the scale of VMs will also have the same verification for the VM's host.
To determine the max shares of a given host, we will use the same equation currently used in ACS for calculating the shares of VMs, presented in Section 1. When Equation 1 is used to determine the maximum shares of a host, CPU is the number of cores of the host, and speed is the nominal CPU speed, i.e., considering the CPU's base frequency.
It is important to note that these changes are only for hosts with the KVM hypervisor using cgroup v2 for now.
This PR provides a new primary storage volume type called "FiberChannel" that allows access to volumes connected to hosts over fiber channel connections. It requires Multipath to provide path discovery and failover. Second, the PR adds an AdaptivePrimaryDatastoreProvider that abstracts how volumes are managed/orchestrated from the connector to communicate with the primary storage provider, using a ProviderAdapter interface, allowing the code interacting with the primary storage provider API's to be simpler and have no direct dependencies on Cloudstack code. Lastly, the PR provides an implementation of the ProviderAdapter classes for the HP Enterprise Primera line of storage solutions and the Pure Flash Array line of storage solutions.
Observed a failure to start new virtual machine with PowerFlex storage. Traced it to concurrent VM starts using the same template and the same host to copy. Second mapping attempt failed.
While creating the volume clone from the seeded template in primary storage, adding a lock with the string containing IDs of template, storage pool and destination host avoids the situation of concurrent mapping attempts with the same host.
This PR adds new functionality to copy snapshots across zones and take snapshots for multiple zones.
Copy functionality is similar to template copy. The source zone acts as the web server from where the destination zone(s) can download the snapshot files. For this purpose, a new API - `copySnapshot` has been added. The response for copySnapshot will be returning zone and download details from the first destination zone of the request. This behaviour is similar to the `copyTemplate` API.
In a similar manner, multiple zones can be selected while taking the snapshots or creating snapshot policies. For this snapshot will be taken in the base zone(in which volume is present) and then copied to the additional zones. A new parameter - `zoneids` has been added to `createSnapshot` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs.
As snapshots can be present on multiple zones (secondary stores), a new parameter `zoneid` has been added to delete the snapshot copy on a specific zone.
`listSnapshots` API has been updated to allow listing snapshot entries for different zones/datastores. New parameters - `showUnique`, `locationType` have been added.
Events generated during snapshot operations will now be linked to the snapshot itself rather than the volume of the snapshot.
`listSnapshotPolicies` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs will return zone details of the zones in which backup will be scheduled for the policy.

after PR #5297 is merged that is applicable for ACS 4.18+. Only when the
global setting is enabled and memory isn't selected, VM snapshot could
be allowed for VMs on KVM that have qemu-guest-agent running.

### Description
Design document: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/%5BDRAFT%5D+Minimal+changes+to+allow+new+dynamic+hypervisor+type%3A+Custom+Hypervisor
This PR introduces the minimal changes to add a new hypervisor type (internally named Custom in the codebase, and configurable display name), allowing to write an external hypervisor plugin as a Custom Hypervisor to CloudStack
The custom hypervisor name is set by the setting: 'hypervisor.custom.display.name'. The new hypervisor type does not affect the behaviour of any CloudStack operation, it simply introduces a new hypervisor type into the system.
CloudStack does not have any means to dynamically add new hypervisor types. The hypervisor types are internally preset by an enum defined within the CloudStack codebase and unless a new version supports a new hypervisor it is not possible to add a host of a hypervisor that is not in part of the enum. It is possible to implement minimal changes in CloudStack to support a new hypervisor plugin that may be developed privately
This PR is an initial work on allowing new dynamic hypervisor types (adds a new element to the HypervisorType enum, but allows variable display name for the hypervisor)
##### Proposed Future work:
Replace the HypervisorType from a fixed enum to an extensible registry mechanism, registered from the hypervisor plugin
#### Feature Specifications
- The new hypervisor type is internally named 'Custom' to the CloudStack services (management server and agent services, database records).
- A new global setting ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ allows administrators to set the display name of the hypervisor type. The display name will be shown in the CloudStack UI and API.
- In case the ‘hypervisor.list’ setting contains the display name of the new hypervisor type, the setting value is automatically updated after the ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ setting is updated.
- The new Custom hypervisor type supports:
- Direct downloads (the ability to download templates into primary storage from the hypervisor hosts without using secondary storage)
- Local storage (use hypervisor hosts local storage as primary storage)
- Template format: RAW format (the templates to be registered on the new hypervisor type must be in RAW format)
- The UI is also extended to display the new hypervisor type and the supported features listed above.
- The above are the minimal changes for CloudStack to support the new hypervisor type, which can be tested by integrating the plugin codebase with this feature.
#### Use cases
This PR allows the cloud administrators to test custom hypervisor plugins implementations in CloudStack and easily integrate it into CloudStack as a new hypervisor type ("Custom"), reducing the implementation to only the hypervisor supported specific storage/networking and the hypervisor resource to communicate with the management server.
- CloudStack admin should be able to create a zone for the new custom hypervisor and add clusters, hosts into the zone with normal operations
- CloudStack users should be able to execute normal VMs/volumes/network/storage operations on VMs/volumes running on the custom hypervisor hosts

This PR fixes an issue observed on multiple zones and direct download templates on KVM, in which a template gets multiple records on the template_store_ref table. When this happens, the template cannot be used as direct download. In case of a system VM template using direct download, system VM deployments fail
This fix ensures when datastore cluster in VMware is added as a primary storage pool in CloudStack then all the child datastores (which already exists in CS) should be in Up state.
For example:
1. Datastore Cluster DS has two child datastores A and B in vCenter. (B is already added as a storage pool in CloudStack)
2. Now try to add datastore cluster DS into CloudStack as a primary storage pool
3. CloudStack tries to add child datastores A and B in CloudStack, since B is already there in CloudStack, it will reuse the existing storagepool entry and will keep under parent Storage pool DS.
During Step 3 we are now checking if B is Up state or not.
