Cloud-Hypervisor is a KVM virtualization using hypervisor. It
functions similarly to qemu and the libvirt Cloud-Hypervisor driver
uses a very similar structure to the libvirt driver.

The biggest difference from the libvirt perspective is that the
"monitor" socket is seperated into two sockets one that commands are
issued to and one that events are notified from. The current
implementation only uses the command socket (running over a REST API
with json encoded data) with future changes to add support for the
event socket (to better handle shutdowns from inside the VM).

This patch adds support for the following initial VM actions using the
Cloud-Hypervsior API:
 * vm.create
 * vm.delete
 * vm.boot
 * vm.shutdown
 * vm.reboot
 * vm.pause
 * vm.resume

To use the Cloud-Hypervisor driver, the v0.14.0 release of
Cloud-Hypervisor is required to be installed.

Some additional notes:
 * The curl handle is persistent but not useful to detect ch process
 shutdown/crash (a future patch will address this shortcoming)
 * On a 64-bit host Cloud-Hypervisor needs to support PVH and so can
 emulate 32-bit mode but it isn't fully tested (a 64-bit kernel and
 32-bit userspace is fine, a 32-bit kernel is unsupported)
 * The pause ch implements pauses execution of the guest cpus (and
 disk/network i/o threads) which seems to align with
 https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/VM_lifecycle#Pausing_a_guest_domain

The original RFC is
https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2020-August/msg01040.html

Changes since the RFC:
 * Updated to use g_autofree where applicable
 * Fixed meson.build to properly detect and disable the driver if
 either Curl or YAJL are missing
 * Fixed filenames in comments to match actual filenames
 * Switched to use VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_KVM and removed VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_CH
 * Added default emulator path to the virDomainDef when unspecified
 * Updated driver to run as non-root, launching cloud-hypervisor as
 non-root
 * Updated to build a virtchd daemon
 * Enabled non-root session usage.
 * Switched to use of g_free instead of VIR_FREE
 * Stopped checking for container based virt shutdown methods.
 * Stopped checking for container based virt reboot methods.
 * Fixed URI schemes to only list ch for the ch://session driver URI
 * Updated name of chDriverState to be cloud-hypervisor
 * Removed debug code for tracing curl calls
 * Consolidated kernel, initrd and cmdline methods
 * Added checks on diskdef->src->type prior to working with the
 other diskdef->src members
 * Added error reporting when failing to build the config from the
 user's xml
 * Fixed empty Expect Header for create vm
 * Switched to use virReportEnumRangeError on unsupported netType
 * Removed unused chStrToInt function
 * Converted use of virObject to GObject
 * Switched to using the virDomainObjPtr's domstatus element to refer
 to the guest PID instead of privateData element
 * Stopped setting persistent in chDomainCreateXML
 * Added cleanup for removing the guest from driver->domains list on
 failure
 * Simplified min version check
 * Added test for guest domain support based on cloud-hypervisor
 binary availability
 * Updated spec file to disable ch driver by default
 * Added error reporting for unsupported device types
 * Updated cloud-hypervisor to not need to poll for socket readiness
 * Added drvch.rst for a user overview of the driver
 * Added explanation of the architecture of cloud-hypervisor and
 approach taken to manage with libvirt

+=======================
+Cloud Hypervisor driver
+=======================
+
+.. contents::
+
+Cloud Hypervisor is an open source Virtual Machine Monitor (VMM) that
+runs on top of KVM. The project focuses on exclusively running modern,
+cloud workloads, on top of a limited set of hardware architectures and
+platforms. Cloud workloads refers to those that are usually run by
+customers inside a cloud provider. For our purposes this means modern
+operating systems with most I/O handled by paravirtualised devices
+(i.e. virtio), no requirement for legacy devices, and 64-bit CPUs.
+
+The libvirt Cloud Hypervisor driver is intended to be run as a session
+driver without privileges. The cloud-hypervisor binary itself should be
+``setcap cap_net_admin+ep`` (in order to create tap interfaces).
+
+Expected connection URI would be
+
+``ch:///session``
+
+
+Example guest domain XML configurations
+=======================================
+
+The Cloud Hypervisor driver in libvirt is in its early stage under active
+development only supporting a limited number of Cloud Hypervisor features.
+
+Firmware is from
+`hypervisor-fw 
<https://github.com/cloud-hypervisor/rust-hypervisor-firmware/releases>`__
+
