Enabling hot plug on a stopped VM wrote every vCPU up to the maximum as
enabled, so a VM with 2 of 4 vCPUs booted with 4. The current vCPUs stay
enabled now; libvirt adds the rest as disabled hotpluggable vCPUs.
attach_disk (new or existing volume, CD-ROM), add_guest_agent and
remove_guest_agent acted only when the status was running (1) or shut
off (5). On a paused VM they changed neither definition and the request
reported success. They now use the same rule as the NIC edits: the
running definition while the VM is active, paused included, and the
persistent one always. remove_guest_agent reads each definition from its
own XML, so a channel present only in the persistent one is removed too.
Unit tests check paused, running and stopped VMs (paused fails on the
previous code). The live effects test adds attach_disk and
add_guest_agent, and now also checks that edits meant for the running VM
reach it, which showed that an ejected CD-ROM keeps an empty <source>
in the live XML; NIC unplug is left to the guest tests, as these VMs
have no OS to acknowledge it.
- change_network detached the NIC and attached one built from scratch,
dropping its QoS, link state and other settings. It now edits the NIC
of the persistent definition in place and defines once; a running VM
gets the change at its next start, as the UI already says.
- add_network, delete_network and set_link_state did nothing on a
paused VM, and set_link_state rewrote the persistent NIC from the live
XML. They now update the running definition when the VM is active and
the persistent one always, each from its own XML.
- Boot and console edits used xml.etree, which renamed the namespace
prefixes of other tools' metadata (<app:info> became <ns0:info>); they
use lxml now.
- The NIC table and the clone form are filled from the persistent
definition (Instance.config_networks, config_disks), so a pending NIC
change is shown and can be edited again.
A live test runs 18 domain edits on stopped, running and paused VMs
whose definition has elements WebVirtCloud does not manage, and checks
for each the effect, that nothing else in the persistent definition
changed, and that persistent-only edits leave the running VM alone.
