KVM: use cache=none for shared disk templates

Disable host cache for externally mirrored disks to avoid cache incoherency.
Without this, migrations between the same two nodes may end up in disk
corruption.

This is a runtime override of cluster defaults, mostly a workaround....

Allow KVM to boot from HTTP

New versions of KVM support booting from HTTP-hosted ISO
images, via libcurl. This patch adds a proper check to
allow defining either a sane, absolute path or an HTTP
URL as an iso image path.

Remove "format=raw" from the cdrom device options when iso_image...

KVM: Add auxiliary functions to handle tap devices

Add two new functions, _OpenTap and _ProbeTapVnetHdr, to
hypervisors.hv_kvm.

_ProbeTapVnetHdr checks if the host kernel supports the virtio net header
(IFF_VNET_HDR) feature. This feature allows KVM to ask the the host kernel to...

KVM: Perform network configuration in Ganeti

This patch introduces network configuration for KVM in Ganeti.

There are three problems with having KVM perform network configuration via ifup
scripts:
a) Ganeti never gets to know the tap interface that is associated with an...

kvm: Make _GetKVMVersion() return integers

The current code returns the major, minor and rev portions of the version of
KVM as strings. Returning them as integers makes it easier to compare.

kvm: Improve network syntax and tests

The current syntax when defining a NIC uses a pair of arguments, like this:

-net tap,vlan=0 -net nic,vlan=0,model=virtio

When using this pair, internally KVM will create a VLANState structure to send
ethernet frames between the guest NIC and the host tap device. This is...

While git-am'ing the blockdev_prefix patch, I modified the hv_xen.py
file but forgot to amend the patch :(, so here it is.

Furthermore, to detect such inconsistencies in the future, a unittest is
added that cross-checks the default parameters in constants.py and the...
