When a tap device for a domain is created and attached to a bridge,
the first byte of the tap device MAC address is set to 0xFE, while the
rest is set to match the MAC address that will be presented to the
guest as its network device MAC address. Setting this high value in
the tap's MAC address discourages the bridge from using the tap
device's MAC address as the bridge's own MAC address (Linux bridges
always take on the lowest numbered MAC address of all attached devices
as their own).
In one case within libvirt, a tap device is created and attached to
the bridge with the intent that its MAC address be taken on by the
bridge as its own (this is used to assure that the bridge has a fixed
MAC address to prevent network outages created by the bridge MAC
address "flapping" as guests are started and stopped). In this case,
the first byte of the mac address is *not* altered to 0xFE.
In the current code, callers to virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort each
make the MAC address modification themselves before calling, which
leads to code duplication, and also prevents lower level functions
from knowing the real MAC address being used by the guest. The problem
here is that openvswitch bridges must be informed about this MAC
address, or they will be unable to pass traffic to/from the guest.
This patch centralizes the location of the MAC address "0xFE fixup"
into virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort(), meaning 1) callers of this
function no longer need the extra strange bit of code, and 2)
bitNetDevTapCreateBridgeInPort itself now is called with the guest's
unaltered MAC address, and can pass it on, unmodified, to
virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort.
There is no other behavioral change created by this patch.
Nuke the last vestiges of printing pid_t values with the wrong
types, at least in code compiled on mingw64. There may be other
places, but for now they are only compiled on systems where the
existing %d doesn't trigger gcc warnings.

(verify): Drop a now stale assertion.
No thanks to 64-bit windows, with 64-bit pid_t, we have to avoid
constructs like 'int pid'. Our API in libvirt-qemu cannot be
changed without breaking ABI; but then again, libvirt-qemu can
only be used on systems that support UNIX sockets, which rules
out Windows (even if qemu could be compiled there) - so for all
points on the call chain that interact with this API decision,
we require a different variable name to make it clear that we
audited the use for safety.
Adding a syntax-check rule only solves half the battle; anywhere
that uses printf on a pid_t still needs to be converted, but that
will be a separate patch.

Commit 7c90026 added #include "conf/domain_conf.h" to
util/virrandom.c. Fortunately it didn't actually use anything from
domain_conf.h, since as far as I'm aware, files in util aren't allowed
to reference anything in conf (although the opposite is allowed). So
this #include is unnecessary.
I verified it still compiles with the line removed, but have placed a
one day moratorium on me doing any "trivial rule" pushes, so will
wait for someone else to verify/ACK before pushing.

This patch changes behavior of virPidFileRead to enable passing NULL as
path to the binary the pid file should be checked against to skip this
check. This enables using this function for reading files that have same
semantics as pid files, but belong to unknown processes.
Function xmlParseURI does not remove square brackets around IPv6
address when parsing. One of the solutions is making wrappers around
functions working with xmlURI*. This assures that uri->server will be
always properly assigned and it doesn't have to be changed when used
on some new place in the code.
For this purpose, functions virParseURI and virSaveURI were
added. These function are wrappers around xmlParseURI and xmlSaveUri
respectively.
Also there is one new syntax check function to prohibit these functions
anywhere else.
File changes:
- src/util/viruri.h -- declaration
- src/util/viruri.c -- definition
- src/libvirt_private.syms -- symbol export

When creating a network (virsh net-create) with an erroneous XML
containing an empty <name> element, the error message is misleading:
error: Failed to create network from foo.xml
error: missing domain name information
It took me a bit of time to figure out that it was the *network* name
that was missing (I generate this xml and didn't look at it, first).
I realized that the same message is used for missing name when creating
a domain, network, or device node.
This patch adds VIR_MIGRATE_UNSAFE flag for migration APIs and new
VIR_ERR_MIGRATION_UNSAFE error code. The error code should be returned
whenever migrating a domain is considered unsafe (e.g., it's configured
in a way that does not ensure data integrity once it is migrated).
VIR_MIGRATE_UNSAFE flag may be used to force migration even though it
would normally be considered unsafe and forbidden.
AC_CHECK_PROG checks for program in given path. However, if it doesn't
exists, [variable] is set to [value-if-not-found]. We don't want this

fallback to runtime detection.
* src/util/virfile.h: the virFileWrapperFdFlags being defined as
a globa variable instead of a type ended up generating a duplicate
symbol error.

This patch allows libvirt to add interfaces to already
existing Open vSwitch bridges. The following syntax in
domain XML file can be used:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'/>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
or if libvirt should auto-generate the interfaceid use
following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
It is also possible to pass an optional profileid. To do that
use following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<mac address='00:55:1a:65:a2:8d'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'
profileid='test-profile'/>
</virtualport>
</interface>
To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:
ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr
The auto-generated WWN comply with the new addressing schema of WWN:
<quote>
the first nibble is either hex 5 or 6 followed by a 3-byte vendor
identifier and 36 bits for a vendor-specified serial number.
</quote>
We choose hex 5 for the first nibble. And for the 3-bytes vendor ID,
we uses the OUI according to underlying hypervisor type, (invoking
virConnectGetType to get the virt type). e.g. If virConnectGetType
returns "QEMU", we use Qumranet's OUI (00:1A:4A), if returns
ESX|VMWARE, we use VMWARE's OUI (00:05:69). Currently it only
supports qemu|xen|libxl|xenapi|hyperv|esx|vmware drivers. The last
36 bits are auto-generated.
Now that no one is relying on the return value being a pointer to
somewhere inside of the passed-in argument, we can simplify the
callers to simply return success or failure. Also wrap some long
lines and add some const-correctness.
* src/util/sysinfo.c (virSysinfoParseBIOS, virSysinfoParseSystem)

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

dmidecode displays processor information, followed by BIOS, system and
memory-DIMM details.
Calls to virSysinfoParseBIOS(), virSysinfoParseSystem() would update
the buffer pointer 'base', so the processor information would be lost
before virSysinfoParseProcessor() was called. Sysinfo would therefore
not be able to display processor details -- It only described <bios>,
<system> and <memory_device> details.
This patch attempts to insulate sysinfo from ordering of dmidecode
output.
Before the fix:
---------------
virsh # sysinfo
<sysinfo type='smbios'>
<bios>
....
</bios>
<system>
....
</system>
<memory_device>
....
</memory_device>
After the fix:
-------------
virsh # sysinfo
<sysinfo type='smbios'>
<bios>
....
</bios>
<system>
....
</system>
<processor>

</processor>

util/virhashcode.c:49:17: error: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Werror=attributes]
util/virhashcode.c:35:17: error: always_inline function might not be inlinable [-Werror=attributes]
Normal 'inline' is a hint that the compiler may ignore; the fact
that the function is static is good enough. We don't care if the
compiler decided not to inline after all.
* src/util/virhashcode.c (getblock, fmix): Relax attribute.
virFileOpenAs previously would only try opening a file as the current
user, or as a different user, but wouldn't try both methods in a
single call. This made it cumbersome to use as a replacement for
open(2). Additionally, it had a lot of historical baggage that led to
it being difficult to understand.
This patch refactors virFileOpenAs in the following ways:
* reorganize the code so that everything dealing with both the parent
and child sides of the "fork+setuid+setgid+open" method are in a
separate function. This makes the public function easier to understand.
* Allow a single call to virFileOpenAs() to first attempt the open as
the current user, and if that fails to automatically re-try after
doing fork+setuid (if deemed appropriate, i.e. errno indicates it
would now be successful, and the file is on a networkFS). This makes
it possible (in many, but possibly not all, cases) to drop-in
virFileOpenAs() as a replacement for open(2).
(NB: currently qemuOpenFile() calls virFileOpenAs() twice, once
without forking, then again with forking. That unfortunately can't
be changed without at least some discussion of the ramifications,
because the requested file permissions are different in each case,
which is something that a single call to virFileOpenAs() can't deal
with.)
* Add a flag so that any fchown() of the file to a different uid:gid
is explicitly requested when the function is called, rather than it
being implied by the presence of the O_CREAT flag. This just makes
for less subtle surprises to consumers. (Commit
b1643dc15c5de886fefe56ad18608d65f1325a2c added the check for O_CREAT
before forcing ownership. This patch just makes that restriction
more explicit.)
* If either the uid or gid is specified as "-1", virFileOpenAs will
interpret this to mean "the current [gu]id".
All current consumers of virFileOpenAs should retain their present
behavior (after a few minor changes to their setup code and
arguments).

Recent discussions have illustrated the potential for DOS attacks

https://lwn.net/Articles/474912/
libvirt has an internal hash table impl, and uses hash tables for
a variety of purposes. The hash key generation code is pretty
simple and thus not strongly collision resistant.
This patch replaces the current libvirt hash key generator with
the (public domain) Murmurhash3 code. In addition every hash
table now gets a random seed value which is used to perturb the
hashing code. This should make it impossible to mount any
practical attack against libvirt hashing code.
