This function had a loop that was only executed twice; it was
artificially constructed with a label, a goto, and a boolean to tell
that it had already been executed once. Aside from that, the body of
the loop contained only two lines that needed to be repeated (the
second time through, everything beyond those two lines would be
skipped).
One side effect of this strange loop was that a g_autofree string was
manually freed and re-initialized; I've been told that manually
freeing a g_auto_free object is highly discouraged.
This patch refactors the function to simply repeat the 2 lines that
might possibly be executed twice, thus eliminating the ugly use of
goto to construct a loop, and also takes advantage of the fact that
virPCIDriverDir() was previously returning *exactly* the same string
both times it was called to eliminate the manual VIR_FREE of drvpath.

When this function was recently changed to add in parsing of
IFLA_VF_STATS, I noticed that the checks for existence of IFLA_VF_MAC
and IFLA_VF_VLAN were looking in the *wrong array*. The array that
contains the results of parsing each IFLA_VFINFO in
tb[IFLA_VFINFO_LIST] is tb_vf, but we were checking for these in tb
(which is the array containing the results of the toplevel parsing of
the netlink message, *not* the results of parsing one of the nested
IFLA_VFINFO's.
This incorrect code has been here since the function was originally
written in 2012. It has only worked all these years due to coincidence
- the items at those indexes in tb are IFLA_ADDRESS and IFLA_BROADCAST
(of the *PF*, not of any of its VFs), and those happen to always be
present in the toplevel netlink message; since we are only looking in
the incorrect place to check for mere existence of the attribute (but
are doing the actual retrieval of the attribute from the correct
place), this bug has no real consequences other than confusing anyone
trying to understand the code.

libvirt can retrieve traffic stats for emulated interfaces that are

assigning an SR-IOV VF device to a guest using vfio):

error: Failed to get interface stats instance 52:54:00:2d:b2:35

For some SR-IOV VF devices this information is available via the
netlink VFINFO_LIST request/response, and that is what this patch uses
to implement stats retrieval for VF. Not that this is dependent on
support in the PF driver - for example, the Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx
(mlx5) driver reports usable stats, while Intel 82599 (ixgbe) and
82576 (igb) just report all stats as 0. (this is the same result as

By default, pfifo_fast queueing discipline (qdisc) is set on
newly created interfaces (including TAPs). This qdisc has three
queues and packets that want to be sent through given NIC are
placed into one of the queues based on TOS field. Queues are then
emptied based on their priority allowing interactive sessions
stay interactive whilst something else is downloading a large
file.
Obviously, this means that kernel has to be involved and some
locking has to happen (when placing packets into queues). If
virtualization is taken into account then the above algorithm
happens twice - once in the guest and the second time in the
host.
This is arguably not optimal as it burns host CPU cycles
needlessly. Guest already made it choice and sent packets in the
order it wants.
To resolve this, Linux kernel offers 'noqueue' qdisc which can be
applied on virtual interfaces and in fact for 'lo' it is by
default:
lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue
Set it for other TAP devices we create for domains too. With this
change I was able to squeeze 1Mbps more from a macvtap attached
to a guest and to my 1Gbps LAN (as measured by iperf3).

When VIR_EXEC_DAEMON is true and cmd->pidfile exists, the parent
will expect the pidfile to be written before exiting, sitting
tight in a saferead() call waiting.
The child then does process tuning (via virProcessSet* functions)
before writing the pidfile. Problem is that these tunings can
fail, and trigger a 'fork_error' jump, before cmd->pidfile is
written. The result is that the process was aborted in the
child, but the parent is still hang in the saferead() call.
This behavior can be reproduced by trying to create and execute
a QEMU guest in user mode (e.g. using qemu:///session as non-root).
virProcessSetMaxMemLock() will fail if the spawned libvirtd user
process does not have CAP_SYS_RESOURCE capability. setrlimit() will
fail, and a 'fork_error' jump is triggered before cmd->pidfile
is written. The parent will hung in saferead() indefinitely. From
the user perspective, 'virsh start <guest>' will hang up
indefinitely. CTRL+C can be used to retrieve the terminal, but
any subsequent 'virsh' call will also hang because the previous
libvirtd user process is still there.
We can fix this by moving all virProcessSet*() tuning functions
to be executed after cmd->pidfile is taken care of. In the case
mentioned above, this would be the result of 'virsh start'
after this patch:

This flag was originally created to indicate that either 1) the build

was too old to have macvtap support. Since there was already a switch
there, the ability to also disable it when 3) the kernel supports
macvtap but the user doesn't want it, was added in. I don't think that
(3) was ever an intentional goal, just something that grew naturally
out of having the flag there in the first place (unless possibly the
original author wanted a way to quickly disable their new code in case
it caused regressions elsewhere).
Now that the check for (2) has been removed, WITH_MACVTAP is just
checking (1) and (3), but (3) is pointless (because the extra code in
libvirt itself is miniscule, and the only external library needed for
it is libnl, which is also required for other unrelated features (and
itself has no subordinate dependencies and takes up < 1MB on
disk)). We can therfore eliminate the WITH_MACVTAP flag, as it is
functionally equivalent to WITH_LIBNL (which implies __linux__).

support was added, the IFLA_* stuff was new (introduced in kernel

extra check was necessary, because libvirt was being built on Linux
distros that didn't yet have IFLA_* (e.g. older RHEL6, all
RHEL5). It's been in the kernel for a *very* long time now, so all
supported versions of all Linux platforms libvirt builds on have it.
Note that the above paragraph implies that the conditional compilation
should be changed to #if defined(__linux__). However, the astute

Additional difference is that with GLib DBus everything is wrapped in
extra tuple (struct). For more details refer to the documentation [1].

The original motivation for adding virNetDevIPCheckIPv6Forwarding
(commit 00d28a78b5) was that networking routes would disappear when
ipv6 forwarding was enabled for an interface.
This is a fairly undocumented side-effect of the "accept_ra" sysctl
for an interface. 1 means the interface will accept_ra's if not
forwarding, 2 means always accept_RAs; but it is not explained that
enabling forwarding when accept_ra==1 will also clear any kernel RA
assigned routes, very likely breaking your networking.
The check to warn about this currently uses netlink to go through all
the routes and then look at the accept_ra status of the interfaces.
However, it has been noticed that this problem does not affect systems
where IPv6 RA configuration is handled in userspace, e.g. via tools
such as NetworkManager. In this case, the error message from libvirt
is spurious, and modifying the forwarding state will not affect the RA
state or disable your networking.
If you refer to the function rt6_purge_dflt_routers() in the kernel,
we can see that the routes being purged are only those with the
kernel's RTF_ADDRCONF flag set; that is, routes added by the kernel's
RA handling. Why does it do this? I think this is a Linux
implementation decision; it has always been like that and there are
some comments suggesting that it is because a router should be
statically configured, rather than accepting external configurations.
The solution implemented here is to convert the existing check into a
walk of /proc/net/ipv6_route (because RTF_ADDRCONF is apparently not
exposed in netlink) and look for routes with this flag set. We then
check the accept_ra status for the interface, and if enabling
forwarding would break things raise an error.
This should hopefully avoid "interactive" users, who are likely to be
using NetworkManager and the like, having false warnings when enabling
IPv6, but retain the error check for users relying on kernel-based
IPv6 interface auto-configuration.
