In order to use AMD SEV, devices that use virtio should also use iommu driver. The problem is to understand that a device uses virtio, because there are many attributes and values that can indicate it. For example, it can be `model='virtio'` for rng and `<target bus='virtio'/>` for disk. Add new property for devices `uses_virtio`, that will indicate that a device in its current configuration is a virtio device, and implement it for known devices. The patch does not change how resulting libvirt XMLs look and does not fix user-visible bugs. This refactoring is required for further work on AMD SEV related patches. The changes to memballoon-related tests were required because the tests were using fake values that does are not possible in real life and that were preventing tests of the new method. The tests now use the value that nova currently uses to generate libvirt xml. Change-Id: I0f85918996128d573b5dbd6ac49a9c2356cd40a9 Partial-Bug: #1845986

OpenStack Nova provides a cloud computing fabric controller, supporting a wide
variety of compute technologies, including: libvirt (KVM, Xen, LXC and more),
Hyper-V, VMware, XenServer, OpenStack Ironic and PowerVM.
Use the following resources to learn more.
API
---
To learn how to use Nova's API, consult the documentation available online at:
- `Compute API Guide <https://docs.openstack.org/api-guide/compute/>`__
- `Compute API Reference <https://docs.openstack.org/api-ref/compute/>`__
For more information on OpenStack APIs, SDKs and CLIs in general, refer to:
- `OpenStack for App Developers <https://www.openstack.org/appdev/>`__
- `Development resources for OpenStack clouds
<https://developer.openstack.org/>`__
Operators
---------
To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation
available online at:
- `OpenStack Nova <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to
the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party
operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for
reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker,
available at:
- `Bug Tracker <https://bugs.launchpad.net/nova>`__
Developers
----------
For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the
CONTRIBUTING.rst.
Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst
file, and pass all unit tests.
Further developer focused documentation is available at:
- `Official Nova Documentation <https://docs.openstack.org/nova/>`__
- `Official Client Documentation
<https://docs.openstack.org/python-novaclient/>`__
Other Information
-----------------
During each `Summit`_ and `Project Team Gathering`_, we agree on what the whole
community wants to focus on for the upcoming release. The plans for nova can
be found at:
