The new CA framework introduced basic support for comma-separated
list of management servers for agent, which makes an external LB
unnecessary.
This extends that feature to implement LB sorting algorithms that
sorts the management server list before they are sent to the agents.
This adds a central intelligence in the management server and adds
additional enhancements to Agent class to be algorithm aware and
have a background mechanism to check/fallback to preferred management
server (assumed as the first in the list). This is support for any
indirect agent such as the KVM, CPVM and SSVM agent, and would
provide support for management server host migration during upgrade
(when instead of in-place, new hosts are used to setup new mgmt server).
This FR introduces two new global settings:
- `indirect.agent.lb.algorithm`: The algorithm for the indirect agent LB.
- `indirect.agent.lb.check.interval`: The preferred host check interval
for the agent's background task that checks and switches to agent's
preferred host.
The indirect.agent.lb.algorithm supports following algorithm options:
- static: use the list as provided.
- roundrobin: evenly spreads hosts across management servers based on
host's id.
- shuffle: (pseudo) randomly sorts the list (not recommended for production).
Any changes to the global settings - `indirect.agent.lb.algorithm` and
`host` does not require restarting of the mangement server(s) and the
agents. A message bus based system dynamically reacts to change in these
global settings and propagates them to all connected agents.
Comma-separated management server list is propagated to agents on
following cases:
- Addition of a host (including ssvm, cpvm systevms).
- Connection or reconnection by the agents to a management server.
- After admin changes the 'host' and/or the
'indirect.agent.lb.algorithm' global settings.
On the agent side, the 'host' setting is saved in its properties file as:
`host=<comma separated addresses>@<algorithm name>`.
First the agent connects to the management server and sends its current
management server list, which is compared by the management server and
in case of failure a new/update list is sent for the agent to persist.
From the agent's perspective, the first address in the propagated list
will be considered the preferred host. A new background task can be
activated by configuring the `indirect.agent.lb.check.interval` which is
a cluster level global setting from CloudStack and admins can also
override this by configuring the 'host.lb.check.interval' in the
`agent.properties` file.
Every time agent gets a ms-host list and the algorithm, the host specific
background check interval is also sent and it dynamically reconfigures
the background task without need to restart agents.
Note: The 'static' and 'roundrobin' algorithms, strictly checks for the
order as expected by them, however, the 'shuffle' algorithm just checks
for content and not the order of the comma separate ms host addresses.

In CLOUDSTACK-9886, we are reading ping.interval and ping.timeout using configdao which involves direct reading of DB. So, replaced it with ConfigKey based approach.
- Bump spring-framework version to 4.x and Jetty to version that runs with JDK8
- Bump servet dependency version
- Migrate spring xmls to version 4, fixes schema locations that are 3.0
dependent in various xmls.
- Fix failing tests due to spring upgrade
(Thanks @marcaurele Marc-Aurèle Brothier for fixing them)

CLOUDSTACK-4762 : Enabling VGPU support for XenServer.
This feature is to enable the GPU-passthrough and vGPU functionality,
with the help of this feature, admins/users will be able to leverage
the GPU graphics unit power by deploying a virtul machine with GPU or
vGPU support or by changing the service offering of an existing VM
at any later point of time. There GPU/vGPU enabled VMs are able to run
graphical applications.
For now, this feature is only supported with XenServer hypervisor but
can be extended to add the support of other hypervisors.
This feature enables adding of guest ip ranges (public ips) form different subnets.
In order to provide the dhcp service to a different subnet we create an ipalias on the router. This allows the router to listen to the dhcp request from the guest vms and respond accordingly. Every time a vm is deployed in the new subnet we configure an ip alias on the router. Cloudstack uses dnsmasq to provide dhcp service. We need to configure the dnsmasq to issue ips on the new subnets. Added a new class dnsmasqconfigurator which generates the dnsmasq confg file, this file replaces the old config in the router.
The details of the alias ips are stored in db in the nic_ip_alias table. Every time a new subnet is added one of the ip from the subnet is used to configure the ip alias.
I have pushed the code to https://github.com/bvbharatk/cloud-stack/tree/Cloudstack-702 , also rebased the code with master.
I need to test the code for advanced sg enabled network using kvm.
I have added the unit test
Marvin tests are at https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=cloudstack.git;h=53e4965
Also accomodated some of the changes suggested by koushik.
corrected the import statements. renamed the IpAlias command to createIpAlias command.
This feature supports only ipv4
