The virCommandNewArgs() method would free the virCommandPtr
if it failed to add the args. This meant errors reported in
virCommandAddArgSet() were lost. Simply removing the check
for errors from the constructor means they can be reported
correctly later
The virCommandAddEnvPassCommon() method failed to check for
errors before reallocating the cmd->env array, causing a
potential SEGV if cmd was NULL
The virCommandAddArgSet() method needs to validate that at
least 1 element in 'val's parameter is non-NULL, otherwise
code like
cmd = virCommandNew(binary)
virCommandAddAtg(cmd, "foo")
Would end up trying todo execve("foo"), if binary was
NULL.
The virSetNonBlock() API only allows enabling non-blocking
operations. It doesn't allow turning blocking back on. Add
a new API to allow arbitrary toggling.

src/util/util.c: Add virSetBlocking
This patch fix a simple bug in virDomainSetMemoryFlags function.
The patch sent before lacks the consideration of the case
where the driver doesn't support virDomainSetMemoryFlags API.

The current LXC I/O controller looks for HUP to detect
when a guest has quit. This isn't reliable as during
initial bootup it is possible that 'init' will close
the console and let mingetty re-open it. The shutdown
of containers was also flakey because it only killed
the libvirt I/O controller and expected container
processes to gracefully follow.
Change the I/O controller such that when it see HUP
or an I/O error, it uses kill($PID, 0) to see if the
process has really quit.
Change the container shutdown sequence to use the
virCgroupKillPainfully function to ensure every
really goes away
This change makes the use of the 'cpu', 'devices'
and 'memory' cgroups controllers compulsory with
LXC
* docs/drvlxc.html.in: Document that certain cgroups
controllers are now mandatory
* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c: Check if PID is still
alive before quitting on I/O error/HUP

This is the part allowing to dynamically resize the debug log
buffer from it's default 64kB size. The buffer is now dynamically
allocated.
It adds a new API virLogSetBufferSize() which resizes the buffer
If passed a zero size, the buffer is deallocated and we do the small
optimization of not formatting messages which are not output anymore.
On the daemon side, it just adds a new option log_buffer_size to
libvirtd.conf and call virLogSetBufferSize() if needed
* src/util/logging.h src/util/logging.c src/libvirt_private.syms:
make buffer dynamic and add virLogSetBufferSize() internal API

The newly added call to qemuAuditNetDevice in qemuPhysIfaceConnect was
assuming that res_ifname (the name of the macvtap device) was always
valid, but this isn't the case. If openMacvtapTap fails, it always
returns NULL, which would result in a segv.
Since the audit log only needs a record of devices that are actually
sent to qemu, and a failure to open the macvtap device means that no
device will be sent to qemu, we can solve this problem by only doing
the audit if openMacvtapTap is successful (in which case res_ifname is
guaranteed valid).
Normally dnsmasq will send a default route (the address of the host in
the network definition) to any client requesting an address via
DHCP. On an isolated network this makes no sense, as we have iptables
to prevent any traffic going out via that interface, so anything sent
that way would be dropped anyway.
This extra/unusable default route becomes problematic if you have
setup a guest with multiple network interfaces, with one connected to
an isolated network and another that provides connectivity to the
outside (example - one interface directly connecting to a physical
interface via macvtap, with a second connected to an isolated network
so that the host and guest can communicate (macvtap doesn't support
guest<->host communication without an external switch that supports
vepa, or reflecting all traffic back)). In this case, if the guest
chooses the default route of the isolated network, the guest will not
be able to get network traffic beyond the host.
To prevent dnsmasq from sending a default route, you can tell it to
send 0 bytes of data for the default route option (option number 3)
with --dhcp-option=3 (normally the data to send for the option would
follow the option number; no extra data means "don't send this option").
I have checked on RHEL5 (a good representative of the oldest supported
libvirt platforms) and its version of dnsmasq (2.45) does support
--dhcp-option, so this shouldn't create any compatibility problems.
This partially reverts (and fixes that part in a different way) commit
e4384459c9, which replaced
``/usr/bin/python'' with ``/usr/bin/env python'' in all examples or
scripts used during build to generate other files.
However, python bindings module is compiled and linked against a
specific python discovered or explicitly provided in configure phase.
Thus libvirt.py, which is generated and installed into the system,
should use the same python binary for which the module has been built.
The hunk in Makefile.am replaces $(srcdir) with $(PYTHON), which might
seem wrong but it is not. generator.py didn't use any of its command
line arguments so passing $(srcdir) to it was redundant.
Otherwise connection of hypervisor driver will be leaked when
one shutdown the guest in console. e.g.
[root@localhost]# init 0
......
init: Re-executing /sbin/init
Halting system...
Power down.
error: Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor, 1 leaked reference(s)
As pointed on CVE-2011-1146, some API forgot to check the read-only
status of the connection for entry point which modify the state
of the system or may lead to a remote execution using user data.
The entry points concerned are:
- virConnectDomainXMLToNative
- virNodeDeviceDettach
- virNodeDeviceReAttach
- virNodeDeviceReset
- virDomainRevertToSnapshot
- virDomainSnapshotDelete
* src/libvirt.c: fix the above set of entry points to error on read-only
connections
By default, all dnsmasq processes share the same leases file. libvirt
also uses the --dhcp-lease-max option to control the maximum number of
leases allowed. The problem is that libvirt puts in a number equal to
the number of addresses in the range for the one network handled by a
single instance of dnsmasq, but dnsmasq checks the total number of
leases in the file (which could potentially contain many more).
The solution is to tell each instance of dnsmasq to create and use its
own leases file. (/var/lib/libvirt/network/<net-name>.leases).
This file is created by dnsmasq when it starts, but not deleted when
it exists. This is fine when the network is just being stopped, but if
the leases file was left around when a network was undefined, we could
end up with an ever-increasing number of dead files - instead, we
explicitly unlink the leases file when a network is undefined.
Note that Ubuntu carries a patch against an older version of libvirt for this:

ttp://bazaar.launchpad.net/~serge-hallyn/ubuntu/maverick/libvirt/bugall/revision/109
I was certain I'd also seen discussion of this on libvir-list or
libvirt-users, but couldn't find it.
This fixes a regression introduced in commit ad48df, and reported on
the libvirt-users list:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvirt-users/2011-March/msg00018.html
The problem in that commit was that we began searching a list of ip
address definitions (rather than just having one) to look for a dhcp
range or static host; when we didn't find any, our pointer (ipdef) was
left at NULL, and when ipdef was NULL, we returned without starting up
dnsmasq.
Previously dnsmasq was started even without any dhcp ranges or static
entries, because it's still useful for DNS services.
Another problem I noticed while investigating was that, if there are
IPv6 addresses, but no IPv4 addresses of any kind, we would jump out
at an ever higher level in the call chain.
This patch does the following:
1) networkBuildDnsmasqArgv() = all uses of ipdef are protected from
NULL dereference. (this patch doesn't change indentation, to make
review easier. The next patch will change just the
indentation). ipdef is intended to point to the first IPv4 address
with DHCP info (or the first IPv4 address if none of them have any
dhcp info).
2) networkStartDhcpDaemon() = if the loop looking for an ipdef with
DHCP info comes up empty, we then grab the first IPv4 def from the
list. Also, instead of returning if there are no IPv4 defs, we just
return if there are no IP defs at all (either v4 or v6). This way a
network that is IPv6-only will still get dnsmasq listening for DNS
queries.
3) in networkStartNetworkDaemon() - we will startup dhcp not just if there
are any IPv4 addresses, but also if there are any IPv6 addresses.

The Relax-NG schema for domains regarding <hostdev> doesn't match what's
implemented in src/conf/domain_conf.c#virDomainHostdevDefFormat(): The
implementation only requires @type, but the schema currently either
required none or all three attributes (@mode, @type, and @managed) to be
defined together, because they are declared in the same
<optional)-section. (@managed is currently even undocumented on
<http://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsUSB>).
Thus the following minimal <hostdev>-example fails to validate:
<domain type='test'>
<name>N</name>
<memory>4096</memory>
<bootloader>/bin/false</bootloader>
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='xenpv'>linux</type>
</os>
<devices>
<hostdev type='pci'>
<source>
<address bus='0x06' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/>
</source>
</hostdev>
</devices>
</domain>
The schema is changed to match the current implementation:
1. @mode is optional (which defaults to 'subsystem')
2. @type is required
3. @managed is optional (which defaults to 'no')
The documentation is updated to mention @managed.

Currently a single storage volume with a broken backing file will disable the
whole storage pool. This can happen when the backing file is on some
unavailable network storage or if the backing volume is deleted, while the
storage volumes using it remain.
Since the storage pool can not be re-activated, re-creating the missing
or deleting the now useless volumes using libvirt only is not possible.
Fixing this is a little bit tricky:
1. virStorageBackendProbeTarget() only detects the missing backing file,
if the backing file format is not explicitly specified. If the
backing file is created using
kvm-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_fmt=qcow2,backing_file=... ...
no error is detected at this stage.
The new return code -3 signals that the backing file could not be
opened.
2. The backingStore.format must be >= 0, since values < 0 would break
virStorageVolTargetDefFormat() when dumping the XML data such as
<format type='...'/>
Because of this the format is faked as VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW.
3. virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfo() always opens the backing file
and thus always detects a missing backing file.
Since it "only" updates the capacity, allocation, owner, group, mode
and SELinux label, just ignore errors at this stage, print an error
message and continue.
4. Using vol-dump on a broken volume still doesn't work, but at least
vol-destroy and pool-refresh do work now.
To reproduce:
dir=$(mktemp -d)
virsh pool-create-as tmp dir '' '' '' '' "$dir"
virsh vol-create-as --format qcow2 tmp back 1G
virsh vol-create-as --format qcow2 --backing-vol-format qcow2 --backing-vol back tmp cow 1G
virsh vol-delete --pool tmp back
virsh pool-refresh tmp
After the last step, the pool will be gone (because it was not persistent). As
long as the now broken image stays in the directory, you will not be able to
re-create or re-start the pool.

Opening raw network devices with the intent of passing those fds to
qemu is worth an audit point. This makes a multi-part audit: first,
we audit the device(s) that libvirt opens on behalf of the MAC address
of a to-be-created interface (which can independently succeed or
fail), then we audit whether qemu actually started the network device
with the same MAC (so searching backwards for successful audits with
the same MAC will show which fd(s) qemu is actually using). Note that
it is possible for the fd to be successfully opened but no attempt
made to pass the fd to qemu (for example, because intermediate
nwfilter operations failed) - no interface start audit will occur in
that case; so the audit for a successful opened fd does not imply
rights given to qemu unless there is a followup audit about the
attempt to start a new interface.
Likewise, when a network device is hot-unplugged, there is only one
audit message about the MAC being discontinued; again, searching back
to the earlier device open audits will show which fds that qemu quits
using (and yes, I checked via /proc/<qemu-pid>/fd that qemu _does_
close out the fds associated with an interface on hot-unplug). The
code would require much more refactoring to be able to definitively
state which device(s) were discontinued at that point, since we
currently don't record anywhere in the XML whether /dev/vhost-net was
opened for a given interface.

Since libvirt always passes /dev/net/tun to qemu via fd, we should
