Hi,
we would like to introduce 3 new elements source,access and allocation in 
memoryBacking element.
For now it was made for numa topology.

<memoryBacking>
     <source type="file|anonymous"/>
     <access mode="shared|private"/>
     <allocation mode="immediate|ondemand"/> 
</memoryBacking>

If allocation is immediate then -mem-prealloc should be added to the qemu 
commanline.
If source is file then
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=1024M,mem-path=*lib dir path* -numa 
node,memdev=mem Will be added to the qemu commandline

If access is shared then the "share=on" parameter will be added to the 
memory-backend-file e.g.
-object 
memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=1024M,mem-path=/var/lib/libvirt/qemu,share=on

The access mode can be overriden by specifying token memAccess in numa cell.
The mem-path can be defined by new config parameter memory_backing_dir.

PS: the sometime failing test qemuhotplug was failing also before this patch :)

Jaroslav Safka (4):
  qemu,conf: Rename virNumaMemAccess to virDomainMemoryAccess
  qemu_conf: Add param memory_backing_dir
  conf: Add new xml elements for file memorybacking support
  qemu: Add args generation for file memory backing
