New Feature: Import VMware VMs into KVM (#7881)
This PR adds the capability in CloudStack to convert VMware Instances disk(s) to KVM using virt-v2v and import them as CloudStack instances. It enables CloudStack operators to import VMware instances from vSphere into a KVM cluster managed by CloudStack. vSphere/VMware setup might be managed by CloudStack or be a standalone setup.

    CloudStack will let the administrator select a VM from an existing VMware vCenter in the CloudStack environment or external vCenter requesting vCenter IP, Datacenter name and credentials.
    The migrated VM will be imported as a KVM instance
    The migration is done through virt-v2v: https://access.redhat.com/articles/1351473, https://www.ovirt.org/develop/release-management/features/virt/virt-v2v-integration.html
    The migration process timeout can be set by the setting convert.instance.process.timeout
    Before attempting the virt-v2v migration, CloudStack will create a clone of the source VM on VMware. The clone VM will be removed after the registration process finishes.
    CloudStack will delegate the migration action to a KVM host and the host will attempt to migrate the VM invoking virt-v2v. In case the guest OS is not supported then CloudStack will handle the error operation as a failure
    The migration process using virt-v2v may not be a fast process
    CloudStack will not perform any check about the guest OS compatibility for the virt-v2v library as indicated on: https://access.redhat.com/articles/1351473.

Oauth2 integration with CloudStack (#7996)
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.

VMware Datastore Cluster primary storage pool synchronisation (#4871)
Datastore cluster as a primary storage support is already there. But if any changes at vCenter to datastore cluster like addition/removal of datastore is not synchronised with CloudStack directly. It needs removal of primary storage from CloudStack and add it again to CloudStack.

Here synchronisation of datastore cluster is fixed without need to remove or add the datastore cluster.
1. A new API is introduced syncStoragePool which takes datastore cluster storage pool UUID as the parameter. This API checks if there any changes in the datastore cluster and updates management server accordingly.
2. During synchronisation if a new child datastore is found in datastore cluster, then management server will create a new child storage pool in database under the datastore cluster. If the new child storage pool is already added as an individual storage pool then the existing storage pool entry will be converted to child storage pool (instead of creating a new storage pool entry)
3. During synchronisaton if the existing child datastore in CloudStack is found to be removed on vCenter then management server removes that child datastore from datastore cluster and makes it an individual storage pool.
The above behaviour is on par with the vCenter behaviour when adding and removing child datastore.

Dingane Hlaluku 40af32b1b9 diagnostics: new diagnostics admin API for system VMs (#2721)
This is a new feature for CS that allows Admin users improved
troubleshooting of network issues in CloudStack hosted networks.

Description: For troubleshooting purposes, CloudStack administrators may wish to execute network utility commands remotely on system VMs, or request system VMs to ping/traceroute/arping to specific addresses over specific interfaces. An API command to provide such functionalities is being developed without altering any existing APIs. The targeted system VMs for this feature are the Virtual Router (VR), Secondary Storage VM (SSVM) and the Console Proxy VM (CPVM).

Mike Tutkowski a30a31c9b7 CLOUDSTACK-9620: Enhancements for managed storage (#2298)
Allowed zone-wide primary storage based on a custom plug-in to be added via the GUI in a KVM-only environment (previously this only worked for XenServer and VMware)

Added support for root disks on managed storage with KVM

Added support for volume snapshots with managed storage on KVM

Enable creating a template directly from a volume (i.e. without having to go through a volume snapshot) on KVM with managed storage

Only allow the resizing of a volume for managed storage on KVM if the volume in question is either not attached to a VM or is attached to a VM in the Stopped state.

Included support for Reinstall VM on KVM with managed storage

Enabled offline migration on KVM from non-managed storage to managed storage and vice versa

Included support for online storage migration on KVM with managed storage (NFS and Ceph to managed storage)

Added support to download (extract) a managed-storage volume to a QCOW2 file

When uploading a file from outside of CloudStack to CloudStack, set the min and max IOPS, if applicable.

Included support for the KVM auto-convergence feature

The compression flag was actually added in version 1.0.3 (1000003) as opposed to version 1.3.0 (1003000) (changed this to reflect the correct version)

On KVM when using iSCSI-based managed storage, if the user shuts a VM down from the guest OS (as opposed to doing so from CloudStack), we need to pass to the KVM agent a list of applicable iSCSI volumes that need to be disconnected.

Added a new Global Setting: kvm.storage.live.migration.wait

For XenServer, added a check to enforce that only volumes from zone-wide managed storage can be storage motioned from a host in one cluster to a host in another cluster (cannot do so at the time being with volumes from cluster-scoped managed storage)

Don’t allow Storage XenMotion on a VM that has any managed-storage volume with one or more snapshots.

Enabled for managed storage with VMware: Template caching, create snapshot, delete snapshot, create volume from snapshot, and create template from snapshot

Added an SIOC API plug-in to support VMware SIOC

When starting a VM that uses managed storage in a cluster other than the one it last was running in, we need to remove the reference to the iSCSI volume from the original cluster.

Added the ability to revert a volume to a snapshot

Enabled cluster-scoped managed storage

Added support for VMware dynamic discovery

Rohit Yadav 7ce54bf7a8 CLOUDSTACK-9993: Securing Agents Communications (#2239)
This introduces a new certificate authority framework that allows
pluggable CA provider implementations to handle certificate operations
around issuance, revocation and propagation. The framework injects
itself to `NioServer` to handle agent connections securely. The
framework adds assumptions in `NioClient` that a keystore if available
with known name `cloud.jks` will be used for SSL negotiations and
handshake.

This includes a default 'root' CA provider plugin which creates its own
self-signed root certificate authority on first run and uses it for
issuance and provisioning of certificate to CloudStack agents such as
the KVM, CPVM and SSVM agents and also for the management server for
peer clustering.

Additional changes and notes:
- Comma separate list of management server IPs can be set to the 'host'
  global setting. Newly provisioned agents (KVM/CPVM/SSVM etc) will get
  radomized comma separated list to which they will attempt connection
  or reconnection in provided order. This removes need of a TCP LB on
  port 8250 (default) of the management server(s).
- All fresh deployment will enforce two-way SSL authentication where
  connecting agents will be required to present certificates issued
  by the 'root' CA plugin.
- Existing environment on upgrade will continue to use one-way SSL
  authentication and connecting agents will not be required to present
  certificates.
- A script `keystore-setup` is responsible for initial keystore setup
  and CSR generation on the agent/hosts.
- A script `keystore-cert-import` is responsible for import provided
  certificate payload to the java keystore file.
- Agent security (keystore, certificates etc) are setup initially using
  SSH, and later provisioning is handled via an existing agent connection
  using command-answers. The supported clients and agents are limited to
  CPVM, SSVM, and KVM agents, and clustered management server (peering).
- Certificate revocation does not revoke an existing agent-mgmt server
  connection, however rejects a revoked certificate used during SSL
  handshake.
- Older `cloudstackmanagement.keystore` is deprecated and will no longer
  be used by mgmt server(s) for SSL negotiations and handshake. New
  keystores will be named `cloud.jks`, any additional SSL certificates
  should not be imported in it for use with tomcat etc. The `cloud.jks`
  keystore is stricly used for agent-server communications.
- Management server keystore are validated and renewed on start up only,
  the validity of them are same as the CA certificates.

New APIs:
- listCaProviders: lists all available CA provider plugins
- listCaCertificate: lists the CA certificate(s)
- issueCertificate: issues X509 client certificate with/without a CSR
- provisionCertificate: provisions certificate to a host
- revokeCertificate: revokes a client certificate using its serial

Global settings for the CA framework:
- ca.framework.provider.plugin: The configured CA provider plugin
- ca.framework.cert.keysize: The key size for certificate generation
- ca.framework.cert.signature.algorithm: The certificate signature algorithm
- ca.framework.cert.validity.period: Certificate validity in days
- ca.framework.cert.automatic.renewal: Certificate auto-renewal setting
- ca.framework.background.task.delay: CA background task delay/interval
- ca.framework.cert.expiry.alert.period: Days to check and alert expiring certificates

Global settings for the default 'root' CA provider:
- ca.plugin.root.private.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA private key
- ca.plugin.root.public.key: (hidden/encrypted) CA public key
- ca.plugin.root.ca.certificate: (hidden/encrypted) CA certificate
- ca.plugin.root.issuer.dn: The CA issue distinguished name
- ca.plugin.root.auth.strictness: Are clients required to present certificates
- ca.plugin.root.allow.expired.cert: Are clients with expired certificates allowed

UI changes:
- Button to download/save the CA certificates.

Misc changes:
- Upgrades bountycastle version and uses newer classes
- Refactors SAMLUtil to use new CertUtils

Rohit Yadav 07564469e9 CLOUDSTACK-9299: Out-of-band Management for CloudStack
Support access to a host’s out-of-band management interface (e.g. IPMI, iLO,
DRAC, etc.) to manage host power operations (on/off etc.) and querying current
power state in CloudStack.

Given the wide range of out-of-band management interfaces such as iLO and iDRA,
the service implementation allows for development of separate drivers as plugins.
This feature comes with a ipmitool based driver that uses the
ipmitool (http://linux.die.net/man/1/ipmitool) to communicate with any
out-of-band management interface that support IPMI 2.0.

This feature allows following common use-cases:
- Restarting stalled/failed hosts
- Powering off under-utilised hosts
- Powering on hosts for provisioning or to increase capacity
- Allowing system administrators to see the current power state of the host

For testing this feature `ipmisim` can be used:
