The new merged qemu no longer has the ability to spawn a vnc viewer
process in the bowels of the xend/qemu stack. In this patch we
provide support for this use case in a different manner - one more
akin to the mechanism used for `xm console' and `xm create -c'.
We introduce new xm options:
xm create --vncviewer [--vncviewer-autopass]
xm vncviewer [--vncviewer-autopass]
These spawn a VNC viewer, obtaining the relevant information
(including the port number and if you tell it your viewer supports it
the password to use) directly from xenstore.
Like xm console it waits in the foreground for the vnc port to become
available; the timeout case isn't handled as well as it might be - it
just causes the whole program (xm) to die with `Alarm clock' but this
is difficult to deal with given the current structure of the xs Python
lowlevel interface, which doesn't provide a timeout on the call to
wait for a xenstore watch.

Xm did not shut down domains anymore when run in xen-api mode due to a
'None' parameter being passed to xend when looking up a domain. This
fixes the problem.

devices without proper FLR capability.
Currently integrated devices without proper FLR capability are not
assignable. This is not nice since actually they may be assignable,
but due to old BIOS the proper FLR capability is not exposed. We can
use the previously-used Dstate transition method to do FLR for them.
This works well and looks few issues are reported AFAIK. Maybe we can
make a black list for the (rare) integrated devices that don't work
with this method.

While plugging a xend memory lead (c/s 18030), I introduced a bug in
the case of managed domains. Managed domains continue to exist after
shutdown and thus should not have their associated VMMetrics object
destroyed until deleted.
The bug actually manifested by a new -> start -> shutdown -> delete
sequence of operations. Shutdown destroyed the VMMetrics object and
delete tried to do the same :-):

1) If the device is PCIe endpoint and supports PCIe FLR, we use that;
else
2) if the device is PCIe endpoint, and all functions on the
device are assigned to the same guest, we use the immediate parent
bus's Secondary Bus Reset to reset all functions of the device (here,
actually we require all the functions of the device be assigned to the
same guest); else
3) if the device is PCI endpoint and is on a host bus
(e.g. integrated devices), and if the device supports PCI Advanced
Capabilities, we use that for FLR; else
4) we use the Secondary Bus Reset (if the PCI device is behind a
PCI/PCI-X bridge, then all devices behind the uppermost such PCI/PCI-X
bridge above this device must be co-assigned).

When a domain is in the process of shutting down there is a small
window when the domain is known to XenD, but it will be unable to form
an SXPR for it due it being in the middle of device hot-unplug. This
causes the 'xm list' command to totally fail with an error like
# xm list
Error: Device 0 not connected
Usage: xm list [options] [Domain, ...]
The 'xm list' command calls into the 'domains' method of
XMLRPCServer.py in XenD. This method just iterates over the list of
domains, fetching the sxpr for each in turn, but with no exception
handling. So if a single domain fails to generate an sxpr, no data is
returned even for other domains which are still functional. This
patch simply makes XenD ignore and skip over domains which throw an
exception, logging the problematic domain.
NB, this problem only hits 'xm list' if it is configured to use the
legay XMLRPC server instead of XenAPI.

Currently, when qemu-dm fails, typically its exit status is lost and
xend doesn't notice. In the patch below I use a fifo (named pipe) to
detect qemu-dm's termination and report the exit status to the
logfile, if possible. (If xend has been restarted since the domain
was created, this isn't possible but we can still know that it failed
and report that fact.)
It would be better to have a failure of qemu crash the domain, by
calling the SCHEDOP_shutdown hypercall with SHUTDOWN_crash. However
if you have on_crash=restart and the configuration is broken in some
way that causes qemu-dm to bomb out straight away this causes xend to
spin endlessly restarting the doomed domain. This is a general
problem with on_*=restart and ought to be fixed separately. When it
is fixed, we can safely arrange for domains whose dm has crashed to be
themselves forcibly crashed.

The Xen tools contain a number of Python extensions written in C. The
C API to Python, used by these extensions, is not stable from one
version of Python to the next.
Our build system uses whatever version of Python is the default on the
build system at that time to build these extensions. However, the
actual scripts such as `xm' use #!/usr/bin/env python which uses
whichever version of Python is the default on the deployment system at
the time of invocation.
If for any reason these two versions of Python are not the same (eg,
because the system is built on one computer and executed on another,
or because the system's gains a more recent Python installation
alongside the original which changes the previous default), warnings
and failures occur.
In this patch I arrange for Python scripts to be installed via a
special wrapper around `install', which determines the build-time
Python version and path and then writes that into the #! line at the
point of `make install' (or `make dist'). (It can also be overridden
by setting PYTHON_PATH.)
