util: Add helpers for safe domain console operations This patch adds a set of functions used in creating console streams for domains using PTYs and ensures mutually exclusive access to the PTYs. If mutually exclusive access is not used, two clients may open the same console, which results in corruption on both clients as both of them race to read data from the PTY. Two approaches are used to ensure this: 1) Internal data structure holding open PTYs. This is used internally and enables the user to forcibly terminate another console connection eg. when somebody leaves the console open on another host. 2) UUCP style lock files: This uses UUCP lock files according to the FHS ( http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARLOCKLOCKFILES ) to check if other programs (like minicom) are not using the pty device of the console. This feature is disabled by default and may be enabled using configure parameter --with-console-lock-files=/path/to/lock/file/directory or --with-console-lock-files=auto (which tries to infer the location from OS used (currently only linux). On usual linux systems, normal users may not write to the /var/lock directory containing the locks. This poses problems while in session mode. If the current user has no access to the lockfile directory, check for presence of the file is still done, but no lock file is created. This does NOT result in an error.

* virchrdev.h: api to guarantee mutually exclusive
conf: Rename console-specific identifiers to be more generic The functionality provided in virchrdev.c (previously virconsole.c) is applicable to other types of character devices besides consoles, such as channels. This patch is just code motion, renaming things such as "console" or "pty", instead using more general terms such as "character device" or "device path".

Fix many mistakes & inconsistencies in header file layout This introduces a syntax-check script that validates header files use a common layout: /* ...copyright header... */ <one blank line> #ifndef SYMBOL # define SYMBOL ....content.... #endif /* SYMBOL */ For any file ending priv.h, before the #ifndef, we will require a guard to prevent bogus imports: #ifndef SYMBOL_ALLOW # error .... #endif /* SYMBOL_ALLOW */ <one blank line> The many mistakes this script identifies are then fixed.
