OAuth2, the industry-standard authorization or authentication framework, simplifies the process of
granting access to resources. CloudStack supports OAuth2 authentication wherein users can login into
CloudStack without using a username and password. Support for Google and Github providers has been added.
Other OAuth2 providers can be easily integrated with CloudStack using its plugin framework.
The login page will show provider options when the OAuth2 is enabled and corresponding providers are configured.
"OAuth configuration" sub-section is present under "Configuration" where admins can register the corresponding
OAuth providers.
This pull request (PR) implements a Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS) for a CloudStack cluster. The primary objective of this feature is to enable automatic resource optimization and workload balancing within the cluster by live migrating the VMs as per configuration.
Administrators can also execute DRS manually for a cluster, using the UI or the API.
Adds support for two algorithms - condensed & balanced. Algorithms are pluggable allowing ACS Administrators to have customized control over scheduling.
Implementation
There are three top level components:
Scheduler
A timer task which:
Generate DRS plan for clusters
Process DRS plan
Remove old DRS plan records
DRS Execution
We go through each VM in the cluster and use the specified algorithm to check if DRS is required and to calculate cost, benefit & improvement of migrating that VM to another host in the cluster. On the basis of cost, benefit & improvement, the best migration is selected for the current iteration and the VM is migrated. The maximum number of iterations (live migrations) possible on the cluster is defined by drs.iterations which is defined as a percentage (as a value between 0 and 1) of total number of workloads.
Algorithm
Every algorithms implements two methods:
needsDrs - to check if drs is required for cluster
getMetrics - to calculate cost, benefit & improvement of a migrating a VM to another host.
Algorithms
Condensed - Packs all the VMs on minimum number of hosts in the cluster.
Balanced - Distributes the VMs evenly across hosts in the cluster.
Algorithms use drs.level to decide the amount of imbalance to allow in the cluster.
APIs Added
listClusterDrsPlan
id - ID of the DRS plan to list
clusterid - to list plans for a cluster id
generateClusterDrsPlan
id - cluster id
iterations - The maximum number of iterations in a DRS job defined as a percentage (as a value between 0 and 1) of total number of workloads. Defaults to value of cluster's drs.iterations setting.

Default Value memory
Description The cluster imbalance metric to use when checking the drs.imbalance.threshold. Possible values are memory and cpu.
This PR adds new functionality to copy snapshots across zones and take snapshots for multiple zones.
Copy functionality is similar to template copy. The source zone acts as the web server from where the destination zone(s) can download the snapshot files. For this purpose, a new API - `copySnapshot` has been added. The response for copySnapshot will be returning zone and download details from the first destination zone of the request. This behaviour is similar to the `copyTemplate` API.
In a similar manner, multiple zones can be selected while taking the snapshots or creating snapshot policies. For this snapshot will be taken in the base zone(in which volume is present) and then copied to the additional zones. A new parameter - `zoneids` has been added to `createSnapshot` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs.
As snapshots can be present on multiple zones (secondary stores), a new parameter `zoneid` has been added to delete the snapshot copy on a specific zone.
`listSnapshots` API has been updated to allow listing snapshot entries for different zones/datastores. New parameters - `showUnique`, `locationType` have been added.
Events generated during snapshot operations will now be linked to the snapshot itself rather than the volume of the snapshot.
`listSnapshotPolicies` and `createSnapshotPolicy` APIs will return zone details of the zones in which backup will be scheduled for the policy.

### Description
Design document: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/%5BDRAFT%5D+Minimal+changes+to+allow+new+dynamic+hypervisor+type%3A+Custom+Hypervisor
This PR introduces the minimal changes to add a new hypervisor type (internally named Custom in the codebase, and configurable display name), allowing to write an external hypervisor plugin as a Custom Hypervisor to CloudStack
The custom hypervisor name is set by the setting: 'hypervisor.custom.display.name'. The new hypervisor type does not affect the behaviour of any CloudStack operation, it simply introduces a new hypervisor type into the system.
CloudStack does not have any means to dynamically add new hypervisor types. The hypervisor types are internally preset by an enum defined within the CloudStack codebase and unless a new version supports a new hypervisor it is not possible to add a host of a hypervisor that is not in part of the enum. It is possible to implement minimal changes in CloudStack to support a new hypervisor plugin that may be developed privately
This PR is an initial work on allowing new dynamic hypervisor types (adds a new element to the HypervisorType enum, but allows variable display name for the hypervisor)
##### Proposed Future work:
Replace the HypervisorType from a fixed enum to an extensible registry mechanism, registered from the hypervisor plugin
#### Feature Specifications
- The new hypervisor type is internally named 'Custom' to the CloudStack services (management server and agent services, database records).
- A new global setting ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ allows administrators to set the display name of the hypervisor type. The display name will be shown in the CloudStack UI and API.
- In case the ‘hypervisor.list’ setting contains the display name of the new hypervisor type, the setting value is automatically updated after the ‘hypervisor.custom.display.name’ setting is updated.
- The new Custom hypervisor type supports:
- Direct downloads (the ability to download templates into primary storage from the hypervisor hosts without using secondary storage)
- Local storage (use hypervisor hosts local storage as primary storage)
- Template format: RAW format (the templates to be registered on the new hypervisor type must be in RAW format)
- The UI is also extended to display the new hypervisor type and the supported features listed above.
- The above are the minimal changes for CloudStack to support the new hypervisor type, which can be tested by integrating the plugin codebase with this feature.
#### Use cases
This PR allows the cloud administrators to test custom hypervisor plugins implementations in CloudStack and easily integrate it into CloudStack as a new hypervisor type ("Custom"), reducing the implementation to only the hypervisor supported specific storage/networking and the hypervisor resource to communicate with the management server.
- CloudStack admin should be able to create a zone for the new custom hypervisor and add clusters, hosts into the zone with normal operations
- CloudStack users should be able to execute normal VMs/volumes/network/storage operations on VMs/volumes running on the custom hypervisor hosts

server: remove registered userdata when cleanup an account (#7777)
server: Use max secondary storage defined on the account during upload (#7441)
test: upgrade kubernetes versions to 1.25.0/1.26.0 (#7685)
kvm: Added VNI Devices as normal bridge slave devs (#7836)
noVNC: fix JP keyboard on vmware7+ which uses websocket URL (#7694)
Fixes case of appending userdata when both template and vm data are either shellscript or cloudconfig
Fixes error when appending gzip userdata
Fixes case when userdata manual text from VM is not getting decoded-encoded correctly.
Fixes case of appending multipart data when both template and vm data contain same format types.
Refactor - moved validateUserData method to UserDataManager class
Refactor userdata test to check resultant multipart userdata thoroughly
