Store a basic list of RBD disks in Zookeeper for access by the node
subsystem to handle RBD locks. This avoids the need to implement complex
parsing logic inside the fencing configuration (or elsewhere).
Also handle a malformed XML content properly during VM define.
Previous to this, if once force-migrated a VM, the previous_node value
would be updated to the current node, which is likely never what an
administrator would want. Change this functionality so that the previous
node value is not changed, and update the documentation to reflect this.
Implements the ability for a client to watch almost-live domain
console logs from the hypervisors. It does this using a deque-based
"tail -f" mechanism (with a configurable buffer per-VM) that watches
the domain console logfile in the (configurable) directory every
half-second. It then stores the current buffer in Zookeeper when
changed, where a client can then request it, either as a static piece
of text in the `less` pager, or via a similar "tail -f" functionality
implemented using fixed line splitting and comparison to provide a
generally-seamless output.
Enabling this feature requires each guest VM to implement a Libvirt
serial log and write its (text) console to it, for example using the
default logging directory:
```
<serial type='pty'>
<log file='/var/log/libvirt/vmname.log' append='off'/>
<serial>
```
The append mode can be either on or off; on grows files unbounded,
off causes the log (and hence the PVC log data) to be truncated on
initial VM startup from offline. The administrator must choose how
they best want to handle this until Libvirt implements their own
clog-type logging format.
Completely restructure the daemon code to move the 4 discrete daemons
into a single daemon that can be run on every hypervisor. Introduce the
idea of a static list of "coordinator" nodes which are configured at
install time to run Zookeeper and FRR in router mode, and which are
allowed to take on client network management duties (gateway, DHCP, DNS,
etc.) while also allowing them to run VMs (i.e. no dedicated "router"
nodes required).
