* Check if volume on datastore requires access for migration, and grant/revoke volume access if requires
* Updated default implementation for requiresAccessForMigration method in PrimaryDataStoreDriver
1. Problem description
In Apache CloudStack (ACS), when a VM is deployed in a host with the KVM hypervisor, an XML file is created in the assigned host, which has a property shares that defines the weight of the VM to access the host CPU. The value of this property has no unit, and it is a relative measure to calculate how much CPU a given VM will have in the host. However, this value has a limit, which depends on the version of cgroup utilized by the host's kernel. The problem lies at the range value of shares that varies between both versions: [2, 264144] for cgroups version 1; and [1, 10000] for cgroups version 2. Currently, ACS calculates the value of shares using Equation 1, presented below, where CPU is the number of cores and speed is the CPU frequency; both specified in the VM's compute offering. Therefore, if a compute offering has, for example, 6 cores at 2 GHz, the shares value will be 12000 and an exception will be thrown by libvirt if the host utilizes cgroup v2. The second version is becoming the default one in current Linux distributions; thus, it is necessary to address this limitation.
Equation 1
shares = CPU * speed
Fixes: #6744
2. Proposed changes
To address the problem described, we propose to apply a scale conversion considering the max shares of the host. Using the same formula currently utilized by ACS, it is possible to calculate the maximum shares of a VM for a given host. In other words, using the number of cores and the nominal speed of the host's CPU as the upper limit of shares allowed to a VM. Then, this value will be scaled to the allowed interval of [1, 10000] of cgroup v2 by using a linear scale conversion.
The VM shares would be calculated as Equation 2, presented below, where VM requested shares is the requested shares value calculated using Equation 1, cgroup upper limit is fixed with a value of 10000 (cgroups v2 upper limit), and host max shares is the maximum shares value of the host, calculated using Equation 1. Using Equation 2, the only case where a VM passes the cgroup v2 limit is when the user requests more resources than the host has, which is not possible with the current implementation of ACS.
Equation 2
shares = (VM requested shares * cgroup upper limit)/host max shares
To implement the proposal, the following APIs will be updated: deployVirtualMachine, migrateVirtualMachine and scaleVirtualMachine. When a VM is being deployed, a new verification will be added to find a suitable host. The max shares of each host will be calculated, and the VM calculated shares will be verified if it does not surpass the host's value. Likewise, the migration of VMs will have a similar new verification. Lastly, the scale of VMs will also have the same verification for the VM's host.
To determine the max shares of a given host, we will use the same equation currently used in ACS for calculating the shares of VMs, presented in Section 1. When Equation 1 is used to determine the maximum shares of a host, CPU is the number of cores of the host, and speed is the nominal CPU speed, i.e., considering the CPU's base frequency.
It is important to note that these changes are only for hosts with the KVM hypervisor using cgroup v2 for now.
This fixes the following cases in which Solidfire storage integration
caused issues when using Solidfire datadisks with VMware:
1. Take Volume Snapshot of Solidfire data disk
2. Delete an active Instance with Solidfire data disk attached
3. Attach used existing Solidfire data disk to a running/stopped VM
4. Stop and Start an instance with Solidfire data disks attached
5. Expand disk by resizing Solidfire data disk by providing size
6. Expand disk by changing disk offering for the Solidfire data disk
Additional changes:
- Use VMFS6 as managed datastore type if the host supports
- Refactor detection and splitting of managed storage ds name in storage
processor
- Restrict storage rescanning for managed datastore when resizing

When deploying a VM is failed during the allocation process it may leave the resources that have been already allocated before the failure. They will get removed from the database as the whole code block is wrapped inside a transaction twice but the server would not inform the network or storage plugins to clean up the allocated resources.
This PR removes Transactions during VM allocation which results in the allocated VM and its resource records being persisted in DB even during failures. When failure is encountered VM is moved to Error state. This helps VM and its resources to be properly deallocated when it is expunged either by a server task such as ExpungeTask or during manual expunge.

Fixes case of account/domain having negative storage count when there is a volume size difference while deploying volumes on certain stroages. In case of Powerflex volume size results in a multiple of 8. If user deploys a volume of 12GB it will result in 16GB in size. But currently CloudStack will not update resource count after deployment.
