This test was failing on systems using pdwtags from dwarves-1.3.
Reported by Matthias Bolte.
Two-pronged fix:
- use --verbose to work also with dwarves-1.3; adapt regular
expressions to handle now-varying separators
- require a minimum number of post-split clauses, in order to
skip upon any future format change.
Currently there are 318; if there are 300 or fewer,

History has shown that there are frequent bugs in the QEMU driver
code leading to the monitor being invoked with a NULL pointer.
Although the QEMU driver code should always report an error in
this case before invoking the monitor, as a safety net put in a
generic check in the monitor code entry points.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c: Safety net to check for NULL monitor
object
Any method which intends to invoke a monitor command must have
a check for virDomainObjIsActive() before using the monitor to
ensure that priv->mon != NULL.
There is one subtle edge case in this though. If a method invokes
multiple monitor commands, and calls qemuDomainObjExitMonitor()
in between two of these commands then there is no guarentee that
priv->mon != NULL anymore. This is because the QEMU process may
exit or die at any time, and because qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor()
releases the lock on virDomainObj, it is possible for the background
thread to close the monitor handle and thus qemuDomainObjExitMonitor
will release the last reference allowing priv->mon to become NULL.
This affects several methods, most notably migration but also some
hotplug methods. This patch takes a variety of approaches to solve
the problem, depending on the particular usage scenario. Generally
though it suffices to add an extra virDomainObjIsActive() check
if qemuDomainObjExitMonitor() was called during the method.

Matthias noted that the line:
virt_aa_helper_LDFLAGS = $(WARN_CFLAGS)
looks inconsistent, so I did an audit.
Currently, the set of compiler warning flags passed to gcc as $CC are
equally permitted as the set of linker flags passed to gcc as $LD, so
there was no problem with that usage. But if we ever get in a
situation where $CC and $LD treat particular flags differently, using
the right variable form will make it easier.
In the process, I spotted a couple of typos that were omitting useful
flags, as well as specifying a -l under the wrong variable.

The patch worked for incremental builds, but broke fresh
builds, because it interfered with automake's automatic

The patch fixes the misuse.
Setting dynamic_ownership=0 in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf prevents
libvirt's DAC security driver from setting uid/gid on disk
files when starting/stopping QEMU, allowing the admin to manage
this manually. As a side effect it also stopped setting of
uid/gid when saving guests to a file, which completely breaks
save when QEMU is running non-root. Thus saved state labelling
code must ignore the dynamic_ownership parameter
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c: Ignore dynamic_ownership=0 when
doing save/restore image labelling
When QEMU runs with its disk on NFS, and as a non-root user, the
disk is chownd to that non-root user. When migration completes
the last step is shutting down the QEMU on the source host. THis
normally resets user/group/security label. This is bad when the
VM was just migrated because the file is still in use on the dest
host. It is thus neccessary to skip the reset step for any files
found to be on a shared filesystem
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virStorageFileIsSharedFS

The cgroups ACL code was only allowing the primary disk image.
It is possible to chain images together, so we need to search
for backing stores and add them to the ACL too. Since the ACL
only handles block devices, we ignore the EINVAL we get from
plain files. In addition it was missing code to teardown the
cgroup when hot-unplugging a disk

and add missing teardown code in unplug path
If the IO error event does not include a reason, then there

QEMU is gaining a new monitor command netdev_add for hotplugging
NICs using the netdev backend code. We already support this on
the command this, though it is disabled. This adds support for
hotplug too, also to remain disabled until 0.13 QEMU is released

When closing a monitor using qemuMonitorClose(), we are aware of
the possibility the monitor is still being used somewhere:
/* NB: ordinarily one might immediately set mon->watch to -1
* and mon->fd to -1, but there may be a callback active
* that is still relying on these fields being valid. So
* we merely close them, but not clear their values and
* use this explicit 'closed' flag to track this state */
but since we call virEventAddHandle() on that monitor without increasing
its ref counter, the monitor is still freed which makes possible users
of it quite unhappy. The unhappiness can lead to a hang if qemuMonitorIO
tries to lock mutex which no longer exists.
First calling REMOTE_PROC_CLOSE and then removing watches might lead to
a hang as HANGUP event can be triggered before the watches are actually
removed but after virConnectPtr is already freed. As a result of that
remoteDomainEventFired() would try to lock uninitialized mutex, which
would hang for ever.

Some shells warn about missing programs before redirection;
the idiomatic way to silence them is to run the program check
inside a subshell, with the redirections outside the subshell.
But a subshell is only needed in places where it is reasonable
to expect the use of such a noisy shell in the first place.
* src/Makefile.am (remote_protocol-structs): Use subshell, for
FreeBSD 8.0 /bin/sh.

Per automake, LDFLAGS is used early in the line, and LIBADD

Support for live migration between hosts that do not share storage was
added to qemu-kvm release 0.12.1.
It supports two flags:
-b migration without shared storage with full disk copy
-i migration without shared storage with incremental copy (same base image
shared between source and destination).
I tested the live migration without shared storage (both flags) for native
and p2p with and without tunnelling. I also verified that the fix doesn't
affect normal migration with shared storage.

When a filter is updated, only those interfaces must have their old
rules cleared that either reference the filter directly or indirectly
through another filter. Remember between the different steps of the
instantiation of the filters which interfaces must be skipped. I am
using a hash map to remember the names of the interfaces and store a
bogus pointer to ~0 into it that need not be freed.
For the decision on whether to instantiate the rules, the check for a
pending IP address learn request is not sufficient since then only the
thread could instantiate the rules. So, a boolean needs to be passed
when the thread instantiates the filter rules late and the IP address
learn request is still pending in order to override the check for the
pending learn request. If the rules are to be updated while the thread
is active, this will not be done immediately but the thread will do that
later on.
WIN32 is always defined when __MINGW32__ is defined, but the
converse is not true. WIN32 is more generic, if someone were
to ever attempt porting to a microsoft compiler. This does

This event is the same as the previous VIR_DOMAIN_ID_IO_ERROR

Introduce a function to notify the IP address learning
thread to terminate and thus release the lock on the interface.
Notify the thread before grabbing the lock on the interface
and tearing down the rules. This prevents a 'virsh destroy' to
tear down the rules that the IP address learning thread has
applied.
The functions invoked by the IP address learning thread
that apply some basic filtering rules did not clean up
any previous filtering rules that may still be there
(due to a libvirt restart for example). With the
patch below all the rules are cleaned up first.
Also, I am introducing a function to drop all traffic
in case the IP address learning thread could not apply
the rules.
The local DHCP server on virtbr0 sends DHCP ACK messages when a VM is
started and requests an IP address while the initial DHCP lease on the
VM's MAC address hasn't expired. So, also pick the IP address of the VM
if that type of message is seen.
Thanks to Gerhard Stenzel for providing a test case for this.

In cases where the security driver failed to restore a label after a
guest has saved, we mistakenly jumped to the error cleanup paths.
This is not good, because the operation has in fact completed and
cannot be rolled back completely. Label restore is non-critical, so
just log the problem instead. Also add a missing restore call in
the error cleanup path
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fix handling of security driver
restore failures in QEMU domain save
When cgroups is enabled, access to block devices is likely to be
restricted to a whitelist. Prior to saving a guest to a block device,
it is necessary to add the block device to the whitelist. This is
not required upon restore, since QEMU reads from stdin
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Add block device to cgroups whitelist
if neccessary during domain save.
The save process was relying on use of the shell >> append
operator to ensure the save data was placed after the libvirt
header + XML. This doesn't work for block devices though.
Replace this code with use of 'dd' and its 'seek' parameter.
This means that we need to pad the header + XML out to a
multiple of dd block size (in this case we choose 512).
The qemuMonitorMigateToCommand() monitor API is used for both
save/coredump, and migration via UNIX socket. We can't simply
switch this to use 'dd' since this causes problems with the
migration usage. Thus, create a dedicated qemuMonitorMigateToFile
which can accept an filename + offset, and remove the filename
from the current qemuMonitorMigateToCommand() API

It is possible to use block devices with domain save/restore. Upon
failure QEMU unlinks the path being saved to. This isn't good when
it is a block device !
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Don't unlink block devices if save fails
If a transient QEMU crashes during save attempt, then the virDomainPtr
object may be freed. If a persistent QEMU crashes during save, then

during a save attempt
In particular I was forgetting to take the qemuMonitorPrivatePtr
lock (via qemuDomainObjBeginJob), which would cause problems
if two users tried to access the same domain at the same time.
This patch also fixes a problem where I was forgetting to remove
a transient domain from the list of domains.

This patch adds support for the RARP protocol. This may be needed due to
qemu sending out a RARP packet (at least that's what it seems to want to
do even though the protocol id is wrong) when migration finishes and
we'd need a rule to let the packets pass.
Unfortunately my installation of ebtables does not understand -p RARP
and also seems to otherwise depend on strings in /etc/ethertype
translated to protocol identifiers. Therefore I need to pass -p 0x8035
for RARP. To generally get rid of the dependency of that file I switch
all so far supported protocols to use their protocol identifier in the
-p parameter rather than the string.
I am also extending the schema and added a test case.
changes from v1 to v2:
- added test case into patch
With JSON qemu monitor, we get a STOP event from qemu whenever qemu
stops guests CPUs. The downside of it is that vm->state is changed to
PAUSED and a new generic paused event is send to applications. However,
when we ask qemu to stop the CPUs we are not really interested in qemu
event and we usually want to issue a more specific event.
By setting vm->status to PAUSED before actually sending the request to
qemu (and resetting it back if the request fails) we can ignore the
event since the event handler does nothing when the guest is already
paused. This solution is quite hacky but unfortunately it's the best
solution which I was able to come up with and it doesn't introduce a
race condition.

patch to fix the incorrect indentation for the domain XML broke the
indentation for the storage XML. This patch adopts Laine's
suggestion of requring the caller of virStorageEncryptionFormat to
provide an unsigned int with the number of spaces the output should
be indented. The patch modifies both callers to provide the
additional argument.

Cygwin's XDR implementation defines xdr_u_int64_t instead of

Alter the IXDR_GET_LONG regex in rpcgen_fix.pl so it doesn't destroy
the #define IXDR_GET_INT32 IXDR_GET_LONG in remote_protocol.x.
Also fix the remote_protocol.h regex in rpcgen_fix.pl.
With this patch I want to enable hex number inputs in the filter XML. A
number that was entered as hex is also printed as hex unless a string
representing the meaning can be found.
I am also extending the schema and adding a test case. A problem with
the DSCP value is fixed on the way as well.
Changes from V1 to V2:
- using asHex boolean in all printf type of functions to select the
output format in hex or decimal format
This patch makes libvirtd start the dnsmasq daemon with a
--dhcp-hostsfile option instead of --dhcp-host options for each
'//ip/dhcp/host' entries defined in network xml file.
the dnsmasq host file is stored into /var/lib/libvirt/network
* src/network/bridge_driver.c: define the directory for the hostfiles
and save/delete them to be used by dnsmasq
* po/POTFILES.in: the new module contains translatable strings

* src/libvirt_private.syms: exports the symbols internally
It implements an idea to save dhcp hosts' macaddr vs. ipaddr mappings to
static file and make dnsmasq loading it with "--dhcp-hostsfile" option,
originally suggested by Dan, and can address the problem that too

Changes after V2:
- removed while looks in case of OOM error
- removed on ifaceDown() call

Since the name of an interface can be the same between stops and starts
of different VMs I have to switch the IP address learning thread to use
the index of the interface to determine whether an interface is still
available or not - in the case of macvtap the thread needs to listen for
traffic on the physical interface, thus having to time out periodically
to check whether the VM's macvtap device is still there as an indication
that the VM is still alive. Previously the following sequence of 2 VMs
with macvtap device
virsh start testvm1; virsh destroy testvm1 ; virsh start testvm2
would not terminate the thread upon testvm1's destroy since the name of
the interface on the host could be the same (i.e, macvtap0) on testvm1
and testvm2, thus it was easily race-able. The thread would then
determine the IP address parameter for testvm2 but apply the rule set
for testvm1. :-(
I am also introducing a lock for the interface (by name) that the thread
must hold while it listens for the traffic and releases when it
terminates upon VM termination or 0.5 second thereafter. Thus, the new
thread for a newly started VM with the same interface name will not
start while the old one still holds the lock. The only other code that I
see that also needs to grab the lock to serialize operation is the one
that tears down the firewall that were established on behalf of an
interface.
I am moving the code applying the 'basic' firewall rules during the IP
address learning phase inside the thread but won't start the thread
unless it is ensured that the firewall driver has the ability to apply
the 'basic' firewall rules.
The hang fix in d376b7d63e was incomplete
since it left quite a few {Enter,Exit}Monitor calls which require driver
to be unlocked. Since the driver is locked throughout the whole
function, {Enter,Exit}MonitorWithDriver need to be used instead to
ensure driver is not locked when issuing monitor commands.
The comment in qemuDomainWaitForMigrationComplete says we are polling
every 50ms but the code sleeps only for 50us. This was already discussed
during review but apparently forgotten when the series was pushed.
The text monitor code was checking for a '\n' prefix on several
places. Previously this would work, but since the monitor code
re-write the '\n' is already stripped off, so mustn't be checked
for.

Probably as a result of a merge error, the CPU hotplug command
names were completely wrong.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c: Fix
the CPU hotplug command names
Adds ability to provide a preferred CPU model for CPUID data decoding.
Such model would be considered as the best possible model (if it's
supported by hypervisor) regardless on number of features which have to
be added or removed for describing required CPU.
So far, when CPUID data were converted into CPU model and features, the
features can only be added to the model. As a result, when a guest asked
for something like "qemu64,-svm" it would get a qemu32 plus a bunch of
additional features instead.
This patch adds support for removing feature from the base model.
Selection algorithm remains the same: the best CPU model is the model
which requires lowest number of features to be added/removed from it.
Qemu committed a patch which list some CPU names in [] when asked for
supported CPUs (qemu -cpu ?). Yet, it needs such CPUs to be passed
without those square braces. When probing for supported CPU models, we
can just strip the square braces and pretend we have never seen them.
First, inital VCPU pinning is set correctly but then it is reset by
assigning qemu process to a new cgroup (which contains all CPUs). It's
easily fixed by swapping these two actions.
An empty root snapshot list was considered as error condition. Creating a
new snapshot would fail if the domain didn't have snapshots yet, because
the snapshot-create function tries to lookup the list of existing snapshots
in order to verify that the snapshot name is unique. This fails if the
domain doesn't have snapshots yet.
Removing the NULL check from esxVI_LookupRootSnapshotTreeList fixes this.
I am moving some of the eb/iptables related functions into the interface
of the firewall driver and am making them only accessible via the driver's
interface. Otherwise exsiting code is adapted where needed. I am adding one
new function to the interface that checks whether the 'basic' rules can be
applied, which will then be used by a subsequent patch.
According to GCC, ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED means that an attribute _might_
be unused, not _must_ be unused. Therefore, it is easier to
blindly mark a variable, than to try and do preprocessor limiting

as potentially unused.

The initial boot of VMs uses -device for NICs where available. The
corresponding monitor command is device_add, but the network hotplug
code was still using device_del by mistake.

The idea is that every API implementation in driver which has flags
parameter should first call virCheckFlags() macro to check the function
was called with supported flags:
virCheckFlags(VIR_SUPPORTED_FLAG_1 |
VIR_SUPPORTED_FLAG_2 |
VIR_ANOTHER_SUPPORTED_FLAG, -1);
The error massage which is printed when unsupported flags are passed
looks like:
invalid argument in virFooBar: unsupported flags (0x2)
Where the unsupported flags part only prints those flags which were
passed but are not supported rather than all flags passed.

Disk devices in QEMU have two parts, the guest device and the host
backend driver. Historically these two parts have had the same
"unique" name. With the switch to using -device though, they now
have separate names. Thus when changing CDROM media, for guests
using -device syntax, we need to prepend the QEMU_DRIVE_HOST_PREFIX
constant

The device_add command was added in JSON mode in a way I didn't
expect. Instead of passing the normal device string to the JSON
command:
{ "execute": "device_add", "arguments": { "device": "ne2k_pci,id=nic.1,netdev=net.1" } }
We need to split up the device string into a full JSON object
{ "execute": "device_add", "arguments": { "driver": "ne2k_pci", "id": "nic.1", "netdev": "net.1" } }

The parameter for the qemuMonitorDeviceDel() is a device alias,

The QEMU developers have stated that they will not be porting
the commands 'pci_add', 'pci_del', 'usb_add', 'usb_del' to the
JSON mode monitor, since they're obsoleted by 'device_add'
and 'device_del'. libvirt has (untested) code that would have
supported those commands in theory, but since we already use
device_add/del where available, there's no need to keep the
legacy stuff anymore.
The text mode monitor keeps support for all commands for sake
of historical compatability.

To avoid race-conditions, the tear down of a filter has to happen before
the tap interface disappears and another tap interface with the same
name can re-appear. This patch tries to fix this. In one place, where
communication with the qemu monitor may fail, I am only tearing the
filters down after knowing that the function did not fail.
I am also moving the tear down functions into an include file for other
drivers to reuse.

Among some here, there is a strong aversion to the use of "assert", yet
some others think it is essential (when applied judiciously) even --
perhaps "especially" -- at the heart of libraries and core hypervisor-
related code.
Here is a compromise that lets us make assertions about the code (e.g.,
to tell static analyzers about invariants) without even a hint of risk
of an abort.
* src/internal.h [STATIC_ANALYSIS]: Include <assert.h>.
(sa_assert): Define. A no-op most of the time, but equivalent
to classical assert when STATIC_ANALYSIS is nonzero.
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c (virStorageBackendFileSystemMount):
Clang was not smart enough, and mistakenly reported that "options"
could be used uninitialized. Initialize it.
Somehow the backend of this function was never implemented in
libvirt's netcf driver, and nobody noticed until now. (The required
netcf function was already in place, so nothing needs to change
there.)
* src/interface/netcf_driver.c: add in the backend function, and point
to it from the table of driver functions.
* src/openvz/openvz_driver.c (openvzGetProcessInfo): Reorganize
so that unexpected /proc/vz/vestat content cannot make us use
uninitialized variables. Without this change, an input line with
a matching "readvps", but fewer than 4 numbers would result in our
using at least "systime" uninitialized.
I am getting rid of determining the path to necessary CLI tools at
compile time. Instead, now the firewall driver has an initialization
function that uses virFindFileInPath() to determine the path to
necessary CLI tools and a shutdown function to free allocated memory.
The rest of the patch mostly deals with availability of the CLI tools
and to not call certain code blocks if a tool is not available and that
strings now have to be built slightly differently.
Generate almost all SOAP method mapping code.
Update the driver code to use the complete paramater list of some methods
that had parameters skipped before.
Improve the ESX_VI__METHOD marco to do automatic output deserialization
based on output occurrence. Also incorporate automatic _this binding and
output pointer check.
* src/esx/esx_vmx.c (esxVMX_GatherSCSIControllers): Do not dereference
a NULL disk->driverName. We already detect this condition in another
case. Check for it here, too.

This patch implements support for learning a VM's IP address. It uses
the pcap library to listen on the VM's backend network interface (tap)
or the physical ethernet device (macvtap) and tries to capture packets
with source or destination MAC address of the VM and learn from DHCP
Offers, ARP traffic, or first-sent IPv4 packet what the IP address of
the VM's interface is. This then allows to instantiate the network
traffic filtering rules without the user having to provide the IP
parameter somewhere in the filter description or in the interface
description as a parameter. This only supports to detect the parameter
IP, which is for the assumed single IPv4 address of a VM. There is not
support for interfaces that may have multiple IP addresses (IP
aliasing) or IPv6 that may then require more than one valid IP address
to be detected. A VM can have multiple independent interfaces that each
uses a different IP address and in that case it will be attempted to
detect each one of the address independently.
So, when for example an interface description in the domain XML has
looked like this up to now:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'>
<parameter name='IP' value='10.2.3.4'/>
</filterref>
</interface>
you may omit the IP parameter:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'/>
</interface>
Internally I am walking the 'tree' of a VM's referenced network filters
and determine with the given variables which variables are missing. Now,
the above IP parameter may be missing and this causes a libvirt-internal
thread to be started that uses the pcap library's API to listen to the
backend interface (in case of macvtap to the physical interface) in an
attempt to determine the missing IP parameter. If the backend interface
disappears the thread terminates assuming the VM was brought down. In
case of a macvtap device a timeout is being used to wait for packets
from the given VM (filtering by VM's interface MAC address). If the VM's
macvtap device disappeared the thread also terminates. In all other
cases it tries to determine the IP address of the VM and will then apply
the rules late on the given interface, which would have happened
immediately if the IP parameter had been explicitly given. In case an
error happens while the firewall rules are applied, the VM's backend
interface is 'down'ed preventing it to communicate. Reasons for failure
for applying the network firewall rules may that an ebtables/iptables
command failes or OOM errors. Essentially the same failure reasons may
occur as when the firewall rules are applied immediately on VM start,
except that due to the late application of the filtering rules the VM
now is already running and cannot be hindered anymore from starting.
Bringing down the whole VM would probably be considered too drastic.
While a VM's IP address is attempted to be determined only limited
updates to network filters are allowed. In particular it is prevented
that filters are modified in such a way that they would introduce new
variables.
A caveat: The algorithm does not know which one is the appropriate IP
address of a VM. If the VM spoofs an IP address in its first ARP traffic
or IPv4 packets its filtering rules will be instantiated for this IP
address, thus 'locking' it to the found IP address. So, it's still
'safer' to explicitly provide the IP address of a VM's interface in the
filter description if it is known beforehand.

drops all traffic to the given mac address.
The following rule in direction 'inout'
<rule direction='inout' action='drop'>
<mac srcmacaddr='1:2:3:4:5:6'/>
</rule>
now drops all traffic from and to the given MAC address.
So far it would have dropped traffic from the given MAC address
and outgoing traffic with the given source MAC address, which is not useful
since the packets will always have the VM's MAC address as source
MAC address. The attached patch fixes this.
This is the last bug I currently know of and want to fix.
