Windows has support for several paravirt features that it will use when running on Hyper-V, Microsoft's hypervisor. These features are called enlightenments. Many of the features are similar to paravirt functionality that exists with Linux on KVM (virtio, kvmclock, PV EOI, etc.)
Nowadays QEMU/KVM can also enable support for several Hyper-V enlightenments. When enabled, Windows VMs running on KVM will use many of the same paravirt optimizations they would use when running on Hyper-V.
A number of years ago, a PR was introduced that added a good portion of the code to enable this feature set, but it was never completed. This PR enables the existing features. The previous patch set detailed in #1013 also included the tests.
By selecting Windows PV, the enlightenment additions will be applied to the libvirt configuration. This is support on Windows Server 2008 and beyond, so all currently supported versions of Windows Server.
In our testing, we've seen benchmark improvements of around 20-25% running on Centos 7 hosts and it is also supported on Centos/RHEL 6.5 and later. Testing on Ubuntu would be appreciated.
When a Instance is (attempted to be) started in KVM Host the Agent
should not worry about the allocated memory on this host.
To make a proper judgement we need to take more into account:
- Memory Overcommit ratio
- Host reserved memory
- Host overcommit memory
The Management Server has all the information and the DeploymentPlanner
has to make the decision if a Instance should and can be started on a
Host, not the host itself.

This fixes#2763 by moving a post cert-renewal class for kvm
plugin/hypervisor to src/main/java. The regression is due to change
in file-system layout due to maven standard refactoring on master and
issue was not caught during forward-merging of a PR from 4.11 branch.

This introduces a new global setting `vm.configdrive.primarypool.enabled` to toggle creation/hosting of config drive iso files on primary storage, the default will be false causing them to be hosted on secondary storage. The current support is limited from hypervisor resource side and in current implementation limited to `KVM` only. The next big change is that config drive is created at a temporary location by management server and shipped to either KVM or SSVM agent via cmd-answer pattern, the data of which is not logged in logs. This saves us from adding genisoimage dependency on cloudstack-agent pkg.
The APIs to reset ssh public key, password and user-data (via update VM API) requires that VM should be shutdown. Therefore, in the refactoring I removed the case of updation of existing ISO. If there are objections I'll re-put the strategy to detach+attach new config iso as a way of updation. In the refactored implementation, the folder name is changed to lower-cased configdrive. And during VM start, migration or shutdown/removal if primary storage is enable for use, the KVM agent will handle cleanup tasks otherwise SSVM agent will handle them.

In 4.11.0, I added the ability to online migrate volumes from NFS to managed storage. This actually works for Ceph to managed storage in a private 4.8 branch, as well. I thought I had brought along all of the necessary code from that private 4.8 branch to make Ceph to managed storage functional in 4.11.0, but missed one piece (which is fixed by this PR).
This adds and allows Ubuntu 18.04 to be used as KVM host. In addition,
on the UI when hypervisor version key is missing, this adds and display
the host os and version detail which is useful to show the KVM host
os and version.
When cache mode 'none' is used for empty cdrom drives, systemvms
and guest VMs fail to start on newer libvirtd such as Ubuntu bionic.
The fix is ensure that cachemode is not declared when drives are empty
upon starting of the VM. Similar issue logged at redhat here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1342999
The workaround is to ensure that we don't configure cachemode for
cdrom devices at all. This also fixes live VM migration issue.

This extends securing of KVM hosts to securing of libvirt on KVM
host as well for TLS enabled live VM migration. To simplify implementation
securing of host implies that both host and libvirtd processes are
secured with management server's CA plugin issued certificates.
Based on whether keystore and certificates files are available at
/etc/cloudstack/agent, the KVM agent determines whether to use TLS or
TCP based uris for live VM migration. It is also enforced that a secured
host will allow live VM migration to/from other secured host, and an
unsecured hosts will allow live VM migration to/from other unsecured
host only.
Post upgrade the KVM agent on startup will expose its security state
(secured detail is sent as true or false) to the managements server that
gets saved in host_details for the host. This host detail can be accesed
via the listHosts response, and in the UI unsecured KVM hosts will show
up with the host state of ‘unsecured’. Further, a button has been added
that allows admins to provision/renew certificates to KVM hosts and can
be used to secure any unsecured KVM host.
The `cloudstack-setup-agent` was modified to accept a new flag `-s`
which will reconfigure libvirtd with following settings:
listen_tcp=0
listen_tls=1
tcp_port="16509"
tls_port="16514"
auth_tcp="none"
auth_tls="none"
key_file = "/etc/pki/libvirt/private/serverkey.pem"
cert_file = "/etc/pki/libvirt/servercert.pem"
ca_file = "/etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem"
For a connected KVM host agent, when the certificate are
renewed/provisioned a background task is scheduled that waits until all
of the agent tasks finish after which libvirt process is restarted and
finally the agent is restarted via AgentShell.
There are no API or DB changes.

Several fixes addressed:
- Dettach ISO fails when trying to detach a direct download ISO
- Fix for metalink support on SSVM agents (this closes CLOUDSTACK-10238)

- Fix upload certificate error message even though operation was successful
- Fix metalink download, checksum retry logic and metalink SSVM downloader
There is a race condition in the monitoring of the migration process on KVM. If the monitor wakes up in the tight window after the migration succeeds, but before the migration thread terminates, the monitor will get a LibvirtException “Domain not found: no domain with matching uuid” when checking on the migration status. This in turn causes CloudStack to sync the VM state to stop, in which it issues a defensive StopCommand to ensure it is correctly synced.
Fix: Prevent LibvirtException: "Domain not found" caused by the call to dm.getInfo()
This fixes move refactoring error introduced in #2283

Skip tests for cloud-plugin-hypervisor-ovm3:
For some unknown reason, there are quite a lot of broken test cases for cloud-plugin-hypervisor-ovm3. They might have appeared after some dependency upgrade and was overlooked by the person updating them. I checked them to see if they could be fixed, but these tests are not developed in a clear and clean manner. On top of that, we do not see (at least I) people using OVM3-hypervisor with ACS. Therefore, I decided to skip them.

The documentation of Libvirt specifies the requirement of using an XML namespace,
when having metadata in the Domain XML. The Nuage extenstion metadata was not
adhering to this specification, and the lastest Libvirt version ignores it in that case.

This feature allows using templates and ISOs avoiding secondary storage as intermediate cache on KVM. The virtual machine deployment process is enhanced to supported bypassed registered templates and ISOs, delegating the work of downloading them to primary storage to the KVM agent instead of the SSVM agent.
Template and ISO registration:
- When hypervisor is KVM, a checkbox is displayed with 'Direct Download' label.
- API methods registerTemplate and registerISO are both extended with this new parameter directdownload.
- On template or ISO registration, no download job is sent to SSVM agent, CloudStack would only persist an entry on template_store_ref indicating that template or ISO has been marked as 'Direct Download' (bypassing Secondary Storage). These entries are persisted as:
template_id = Template or ISO id on vm_template table
store_id NULL
download_state = BYPASSED
state = Ready
(Note: these entries allow users to deploy virtual machine from registered templates or ISOs)
- An URL validation command is sent to a random KVM host to check if template/ISO location can be reached. Metalink are also supported by this feature. In case of a metalink, it is fetched and URL check is performed on each of its URLs.
- Checksum should be provided as indicated on #2246: {ALGORITHM}CHKSUMHASH
- After template or ISO is registered, it would be displayed in the UI
Virtual machine deployment:
When a 'Direct Download' template is selected for deployment, CloudStack would delegate template downloading to destination storage pool via destination host by a new pluggable download manager.
Download manager would handle template downloading depending on URL protocol. In case of HTTP, request headers can be set by the user via vm_template_details. Those details should be persisted as:
Key: HTTP_HEADER
Value: HEADERNAME:HEADERVALUE
In case of HTTPS, a new API method is added uploadTemplateDirectDownloadCertificate to allow user importing a client certificate into all KVM hosts' keystore before deployment.
After template or ISO is downloaded to primary storage, usual entry would be persisted on template_spool_ref indicating the mapping between template/ISO and storage pool.
