Otherwise we fail like
libvirt version: 1.2.7, package: 6 (root 2014-08-08-16:09:22 bogon)
virAuditOpen:62 : Unable to initialize audit layer: Protocol not supported
virFileGetDefaultHugepageSize:2958 : internal error: Unable to parse /proc/meminfo
virStateInitialize:749 : Initialization of QEMU state driver failed: internal error: Unable to parse /proc/meminfo
daemonRunStateInit:922 : Driver state initialization failed
if the data can't be determined.
Reference: http://bugs.debian.org/757609
Since commit be0782e1 we are parsing /proc/meminfo to find out the
default huge page size. However, if the host we are running at does
not support any huge pages (e.g. CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is turned off),
we will not successfully parse the meminfo file and hence the whole
qemu driver init process fails. Moreover, the default huge page size
is needed if and only if there's at least one hugetlbfs mount point.
So the fix consists of moving the virFileGetDefaultHugepageSize
function call after the first hugetlbfs mount point is found.
With this fix, we fail to start with one or more hugetlbfs mounts and
malformed meminfo file, but that's expected (how can one mount
hugetlbfs without kernel supporting huge pages?). Workaround in that
case is to umount all the hugetlbfs mounts.

In making the conversion to the new API, I fixed a couple bugs:
virSCSIDeviceGetSgName would leak memory if a directory
unexpectedly contained multiple entries;
virNetDevTapGetRealDeviceName could report a spurious error
from a stale errno inherited before starting the readdir search.
The decision on whether to store the result of virDirRead into
a variable is based on whether the end of the loop falls through
to cleanup code automatically. In some cases, we have loops that
are documented to return NULL on failure, and which raise an
error on most failure paths but not in the case where the directory
was unexpectedly empty; it may be worth a followup patch to
explicitly report an error if readdir was successful but the
directory was empty, so that a NULL return always has an error set.

Our current pidfile acquire APis (virPidFileAcquire) simply return -1 upon
failure to acquire a lock. This patch adds a parameter 'bool waitForLock'
which instructs the APIs if we want to make it block and wait for the lock
or not.
The old semantics of virFork() violates the priciple of good
usability: it requires the caller to check the pid argument
after use, *even when virFork returned -1*, in order to properly
abort a child process that failed setup done immediately after
fork() - that is, the caller must call _exit() in the child.
While uses in virfile.c did this correctly, uses in 'virsh
lxc-enter-namespace' and 'virt-login-shell' would happily return
from the calling function in both the child and the parent,
leading to very confusing results. [Thankfully, I found the
problem by inspection, and can't actually trigger the double
return on error without an LD_PRELOAD library.]
It is much better if the semantics of virFork are impossible
to abuse. Looking at virFork(), the parent could only ever
return -1 with a non-negative pid if it misused pthread_sigmask,
but this never happens. Up until this patch series, the child
could return -1 with non-negative pid if it fails to set up
signals correctly, but we recently fixed that to make the child
call _exit() at that point instead of forcing the caller to do
it. Thus, the return value and contents of the pid argument are
now redundant (a -1 return now happens only for failure to fork,
a child 0 return only happens for a successful 0 pid, and a
parent 0 return only happens for a successful non-zero pid),
so we might as well return the pid directly rather than an
integer of whether it succeeded or failed; this is also good
from the interface design perspective as users are already
familiar with fork() semantics.
One last change in this patch: before returning the pid directly,
I found cases where using virProcessWait unconditionally on a
cleanup path of a virFork's -1 pid return would be nicer if there
were a way to avoid it overwriting an earlier message. While
such paths are a bit harder to come by with my change to a direct
pid return, I decided to keep the virProcessWait change in this
patch.

Right now, a caller waiting for a child process either requires
the child to have status 0, or must use WIFEXITED() and friends
itself. But in many cases, we want the middle ground of treating
fatal signals as an error, and directly accessing the normal exit
value without having to use WEXITSTATUS(), in order to easily
detect an expected non-zero exit status. This adds the middle

These all existed before virfile.c was created, and for some reason
weren't moved.
This is mostly straightfoward, although the syntax rule prohibiting
write() had to be changed to have an exception for virfile.c instead
of virutil.c.
This movement pointed out that there is a function called
virBuildPath(), and another almost identical function called
virFileBuildPath(). They really should be a single function, which
I'll take care of as soon as I figure out what the arglist should look
like.
The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
The loop.h on RHEL4 is broken and cannot be imported. We already

We are requesting for stderr catching for all cases in
virFileWrapperFdNew(). There is no need to have a separate
function just to report an error, esp. when we can do it in
virFileWrapperFdClose().
Commit 34e8f63a32 introduced support for catching errors from
libvirt iohelper. However, at those times there wasn't such fancy
API as virCommandDoAsyncIO(), so everything has to be implemented
on our own. But since we do have the API now, we can use it and
drop our implementation then.
Currently, we use iohelper when saving/restoring a domain.
However, if there's some kind of error (like I/O) it is not
propagated to libvirt. Since it is not qemu who is doing
the actual write() it will not get error. The iohelper does.
Therefore we should check for iohelper errors as it makes
libvirt more user friendly.

There are a few issues with the current virAtomic APIs
- They require use of a virAtomicInt struct instead of a plain

- Several of the methods do not implement memory barriers
- The methods do not implement compiler re-ordering barriers
- There is no Win32 native impl
The GLib library has a nice LGPLv2+ licensed impl of atomic
ops that works with GCC, Win32, or pthreads.h that addresses
all these problems. The main downside to their code is that
the pthreads impl uses a single global mutex, instead of
a per-variable mutex. Given that it does have a Win32 impl
though, we don't expect anyone to seriously use the pthread.h
impl, so this downside is not significant.

When libvirtd forks off a new child, the child then calls virLogReset(),
which ends up closing file descriptors used as log outputs. However, we

lock logging mutex which was already locked by virLogReset(). We don't
really want to log anything when we are in the process of closing log
outputs.
EBADF errors are logged as warnings as they normally indicate a double

When libvirtd is started, we create "libvirt/qemu" directories under

user and "libvirt" remains owned by root. If umask was too restrictive
when libvirtd started, qemu user may lose access to "qemu"
subdirectory. Let's explicitly grant search permissions to "libvirt"
directory for all users.
virFileDirectFd was used for accessing files opened with O_DIRECT using
libvirt_iohelper. We will want to use the helper for accessing files
regardless on O_DIRECT and thus virFileDirectFd was generalized and
renamed to virFileWrapperFd.
Add a virFileTouch API which ensures that a file will always
exist, even if zero length
* src/util/virfile.c, src/util/virfile.h,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Introduce virFileTouch
When saving config files we just overwrite old content of the file. In
case something fails during that process (e.g. disk gets full) we lose
both old and new content. This patch makes the process more robust by
writing the new content into a separate file and only if that succeeds
the original file is atomically replaced with the new one.
Add some simple wrappers around the fcntl() discretionary file
locking capability.
* src/util/util.c, src/util/util.h, src/libvirt_private.syms: Add
virFileLock and virFileUnlock APIs
O_DIRECT has stringent requirements. Rather than make lots of changes
at each site that wants to use O_DIRECT, it is easier to offload
the work through a helper process that mirrors the I/O between a
pipe and the actual direct fd, so that the other end of the pipe
no longer has to worry about constraints.
Plus, if the kernel ever gains better posix_fadvise support, then we
only have to touch a single file to let all callers benefit from a
more efficient way to avoid file system caching.
* src/util/virfile.h (virFileDirectFdFlag, virFileDirectFdNew)
(virFileDirectFdClose, virFileDirectFdFree): New prototypes.
* src/util/virdirect.c: Implement new wrapper object.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (virfile.h): Export new symbols.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add to list.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add new translations.
