I haven't seen the previous versions, so sorry if I point out something
that got changed already.

Add libvirtd NUMA cell domain administration functionality to
describe underlying cell id sibling distances in full fashion
when configuring HVM guests.

[below is an example of a 4 node setup]

 <cpu>
   <numa>
     <cell id='0' cpus='0' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
       <distances>
         <sibling id='0' value='10'/>
         <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
         <sibling id='2' value='31'/>
         <sibling id='3' value='41'/>
       </distances>
     </cell>
     <cell id='1' cpus='1' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
       <distances>
         <sibling id='0' value='21'/>
         <sibling id='1' value='10'/>
         <sibling id='2' value='31'/>
         <sibling id='3' value='41'/>
       </distances>
     </cell>
     <cell id='2' cpus='2' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
       <distances>
         <sibling id='0' value='31'/>
         <sibling id='1' value='21'/>
         <sibling id='2' value='10'/>
         <sibling id='3' value='21'/>
       </distances>
     <cell id='3' cpus='3' memory='2097152' unit='KiB'>
       <distances>
         <sibling id='0' value='41'/>
         <sibling id='1' value='31'/>
         <sibling id='2' value='21'/>
         <sibling id='3' value='10'/>
       </distances>
     </cell>
   </numa>
 </cpu>


Are all those required?  I don't see the point in requiring duplicate
values.

Changes under this commit concern all those that require adding
the valid data structures, virDomainNuma* functional routines and the
XML doc schema enhancements to enforce appropriate administration.


I don't understand the point of this paragraph.

These changes are accompanied with topic related documentation under
docs/formatdomain.html within the "CPU model and topology" extending the
"Guest NUMA topology" paragraph.


This can be seen from the patch.

For terminology we refer to sockets as "nodes" where access to each
others' distinct resources such as memory make them "siblings" with a
designated "distance" between them.  A specific design is described under
the ACPI (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface Specification)
within the chapter explaining the system's SLIT (System Locality Distance
Information Table).


The above paragraph is also being added in the docs.

These patches extend core libvirt's XML description of a virtual machine's
hardware to include NUMA distance information for sibling nodes, which
is then passed to Xen guests via libxl. Recently qemu landed support for
constructing the SLIT since commit 0f203430dd ("numa: Allow setting NUMA
distance for different NUMA nodes"), hence these core libvirt extensions
can also help other drivers in supporting this feature.


This is not true, libxl changes are in separate patch.  There's a lot of
copy-paste from the cover-letter...

These changes alter the docs/schemas/cputypes.rng enforcing
domain administration to follow the syntax below per numa cell id.

These changes also alter docs/schemas/basictypes.rng to add
"numaDistanceValue" which is an "unsignedInt" with a minimum value
of 10 as 0-9 are reserved values and can not be used as System
Locality Distance Information Table data.

Signed-off-by: Wim ten Have <wim.ten.have@xxxxxxxxxx>
---
Changes on v1:
- Add changes to docs/formatdomain.html.in describing schema update.
Changes on v2:
- Automatically apply distance symmetry maintaining cell <-> sibling.
- Check for maximum '255' on numaDistanceValue.
- Automatically complete empty distance ranges.
- Check that sibling_id's are in range with cell identifiers.
- Allow non-contiguous ranges, starting from any node id.
- Respect parameters as ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL fix functions and callers.
- Add and apply topoly for LOCAL_DISTANCE=10 and REMOTE_DISTANCE=20.

Are you introducing a function that is not used anywhere as a part of a
patch that does something else as well?  I can't see the point of this
function really...  It looks like you are guarding against user input
which doesn't really makes sense here for me.  Maybe I need to see
where it is used but it's not in this patch...

Maybe you meant REMOTE_DISTANCE here?  If there were tests it would be
visible.  Similarly if this function was used anywhere in this patch.  I
don't feel like reading further, other may continue the review.

Have a nice day,
