This patch adds the flag VIR_INTERFACE_XML_INACTIVE to
virInterfaceGetXMLDesc's flags. When it is*not* set (the default), the
live interface info will be returned in the XML (in particular, the IP
address(es) and netmask(s) will be retrieved by querying the interface
directly, rather than reporting what's in the config file). The
backend of this is in netcf's ncf_if_xml_state() function.
* configure.in libvirt.spec.in: requires netcf >= 0.1.3
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: adds flag VIR_INTERFACE_XML_INACTIVE
* src/conf/interface_conf.c src/interface/netcf_driver.c src/libvirt.c:
update the parsing and backend routines accordingly
* tools/virsh.c: change interface edit to inactive definition and
adds the inactive flag for interface dump
There's a long known issue where if you install libvirt in a guest,
the default virtual network will conflict with the default virtual
network in the host.
That's one of the reasons we have the libvirt-client RPM - it allows
you to install the client library without having the host side
installed.
Rich Jones points out that if you install libvirt-devel in a guest,
then you get libvirtd installed and the network conflict:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/531200
libvirt-devel should only require libvirt-client - e.g. nothing in
the devel package pertains to anything in the libvirt RPM. The Fedora
packaging guidelines say:
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#Devel_Packages
Devel packages must require the base package using a fully versioned
dependency ...
But for all intents and purposes, libvirt-client is our base RPM.
* libvirt.spec.in: make libvirt-devel require libvirt-client
* src/lxc/lxc.conf: new configuration file, there is currently one
tunable "log_with_libvirtd" that controls whether an lxc controller will
log only to the container log file, or whether it will honor libvirtd's
log output configuration. This provides a way to have libvirtd and its
children log to a single file. The default is to log to the container
log file.
* src/Makefile.am libvirt.spec.in: add the new file
* src/lxc/lxc_conf.[ch] src/lxc/lxc_driver.c: read the new log value
from the configuration file and pass the log informations when
starting up a container.
Otherwise logrotate barfs:
error: error accessing /var/log/libvirt/uml: No such file or directory
error: libvirtd:1 glob failed for /var/log/libvirt/uml/*.log
error: found error in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/*.log /var/log/libvirt/uml/*.log /var/log/libvirt/lxc/*.log , skipping
* qemud/Makefile.am: always create /var/log/libvirt/{lxc,uml} when
installing the logrotate conf; not ideal, but easier than making
the logrotate conf depend on which drivers are enabled
* Makefile.am: examples/domain-events/events-python should be added
to dist tarball
* libvirt.spec.in: there is no makefile in domain-events but in
domain-events/events-c and python/libvirtclass.txt has vanished
* docs/storage/: Move to examples/xml/storage/
* docs/test*.xml: Move to examples/xml/test/
* docs/Makefile.am: Remove example XML files from dist
* Makefile.am: Add examples/xml to EXTRA_DIST
* tests/virshtest.c: Update for moved test XML
* libvirt.spec.in: Include example XML files as docs
* tests/int-overflow: UPdate for moved XML
* docs/pki_check.sh: Move to tool/virt-pki-validate.in and add
in POD man page documentation
* tools/.gitignore: Ignore generated virt-pki-validate file
* tools/Makefile.am: Install & build virt-pki-validate and
virt-pki-validate.1
* docs/remote.html, docs/remote.html.in: Refer to new tool
name virt-pki-validate
* libvirt.spec.in, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Add virt-pki-validate
and virt-pki-validate.1 to files list
* Makefile.am: Add examples/dominfo examples/domsuspend examples/python
as SUBDIRS
* configure.in: Update AC_OUTPUT for new/old Makefiles
* docs/Makefile.am: Remove examples from SUBDIRS

* docs/examples: Remove all remaining files
* docs/examples/python: Moved to examples/python/
* examples/dominfo/Makefile.am, examples/domsuspend/Makefile.am: New
build files
* libvirt.spec.in: Update to take account of moved examples
Some architectures in certain RHEL versions do not include any
hypervisors. Update the specfile to allow those to easily build
a remote client only version of libvirt. ie no libvirtd related
bits at all.
* qemud/Makefile.am: Always instal SASL config since its needed
by client too
* libvirt.spec.in: Re-factor specfile conditionals to allow entire
server side build to be disabled easily, eg a remote client only
build. Make RHEL-5 do client only build for s390/ppc. Make RHEL-6
do a client only build for all non-x86_64 archs. Enable LXC on
RHEL-6. Enable all Fedora >= 6 features on RHEL-6 too. Add some
more conditionals around dnsmasq/iptables/hal Requires tags.
Add missing e2fsprogs-devel BR for RHEL-5 as workaround for broken
parted. Fix the device mapper BR for RHEL-5. Add conditional rules
for ESX build. Add conditional rules for SELinux + HAL builds.
Fix a mistaken %{with_qemu} to be %{with_network} when setting
up default network XML
lzop was removed due to some confusion over whether it provided functional
advantages distinct from xz. This has been addressed in the mailing list post
archived at http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.libvirt/16487, and
support for lzop is re-added here.
* libvirt.spec.in: add dependancy on lzop
* src/qemu.conf: update documentation of save_image_format
* src/qemu_driver.c: re-add lzop compression option
* src/qemu_driver.c: drop lzma and lzop images compression options
as they are deprecated by xz
* libvirt.spec.in: add requires for xz/bzip2/gzip as they are needed
to implement the compression options
Separate the guest created QEMU monitor socket location
from the libvirtd create XML / PID data files, to improve
security separation when running QEMU non-root
* libvirt.spec.in: Leave /var/run/libvirt/qemu as root:root
* src/qemu_conf.h: Add libDir and cacheDir directory paths
* src/qemu_driver.c: Move QEMU monitor socket from
stateDir to libDir to avoid making security critical directory
accessible to QEMU guests.
* src/util.c: Delay running hook till after damonizing to
ensure pidfile is still written before changing UID/GID
Define an <encryption> tag specifying volume encryption format and
format-depenedent parameters (e.g. passphrase, cipher name, key
length, key).
Currently the only defined parameter is a reference to a "secret"
(passphrase/key) managed using the virSecret* API.
Only the qcow/qcow2 encryption format, and a "default" format used to
let libvirt choose the format during volume creation, is currently
supported.
This patch does not add any users; the <encryption> tag is added in
the following patches to both volumes (to support encrypted volume
creation) and domains.
* docs/*.html: Re-generate
* docs/formatstorageencryption.html.in, docs/sitemap.html.in:
Add page describing storage encryption data format
* docs/schemas/Makefile.am, docs/schemas/storageencryption.rng:
Add RNG schema for storage encryption format
* po/POTFILES.in: Add src/storage_encryption_conf.c
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virStorageEncryption* functions
* src/storage_encryption_conf.h, src/storage_encryption_conf.c: Internal
helper APIs for dealing with storage encryption format
* libvirt.spec.in, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Add storageencryption.rng
RNG schema
This patch adds a "secret" as a separately managed object, using a
special-purpose API to transfer the secret values between nodes and
libvirt users.
* docs/schemas/secret.rng, docs/schemas/Makefilem.am: Add new
schema for virSecret objects
* docs/*html: Re-generated
* docs/formatsecret.html.in, docs/sitemap.html.in: Add page
describing the virSecret XML schema
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define the new virSecret public
API
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export symbols for new public APIs
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in, libvirt.spec.in: Add secret.rng to
files list
* configure.in: Check for pkcheck which indicates new policykit
* qemud/Makefile.am: Install different versions of policy
* qemud/libvirtd.policy: Rename to libvirtd.policy-0
* qemud/libvirtd.policy-1: new style policy
* qemud/qemud.c, qemud/qemud.h, qemud/remote.c: Support new
policykit API via external pkcheck helper
* src/remote_internal.c: Don't prompt for polkit auth with new
policykit API
* libvirt.spec.in: deal with new policy install locations & deps
Allow qemu user to open kernel/initrds in this dir, but still prevent
others from listing it.
* libvirt.spec.in: set /var/lib/libvirt/boot perms to 0711
polkit was disabled by default for a reason - because we selectively
enable it on newer fedoras rather than disable it on older fedoras
Same fix needed for netcf
It's not needed at build time
Removed in Fedora by:
* Fri Jun 5 2009 Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> - 0.6.4-2.fc12
- Remove the qemu BuildRequires
Disabled on < f12 for now until netcf is in Fedora updates
BuildRequires netcf if enabled, pass --without-netcf if its disabled
* libvirt.spec.in: enabled netcf by default
* libvirt.spec.in: make a client rpm with shared libs, client binaries
and resources needed by those, and a small number of fixes and
cleanups in the spec file.
* configure.in: Add --with-qemu-user and --with-qemu-group args
* libvirt.spec.in: use 'qemu' for user/group for Fedora >= 12
* qemud/libvirtd_qemu.arg, qemud/test_libvirtd_qemu.aug,
src/qemu.conf: Add 'user' and 'group' args for configuration
* src/Makefile.am: Create %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu_conf.h: Load user/group from config
* src/qemu_driver.c: Change user ID/group ID when launching QEMU
guests. Change user/group ownership on disks/usb/pci devs.
Put memory dumps in %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/util.c, src/util.h: Add convenient APIs for converting
username/groupname to user ID / group ID
