6d21d9bccb util: Implement and use virFileIsRegular() rather than d_type
The dirent's d_type field is not portable to all platforms. So we have
to use stat() to determine the type of file for the functions that need
to be cross-platform. Fix virFileChownFiles() by calling the new
virFileIsRegular() function.

f3282d1f9b util: file: Add helper to determine whether a path is a CDROM
Add detection mechanism which will allow to check whether a path to a
block device is a physical CDROM drive. This will be useful once we will
need to pass it to hypervisors.

The linux implementation uses an ioctl to do the detection, while the
fallback uses a simple string prefix match.

Right-aligning backslashes when defining macros or using complex
commands in Makefiles looks cute, but as soon as any changes is
required to the code you end up with either distractingly broken
alignment or unnecessarily big diffs where most of the changes
are just pushing all backslashes a few characters to one side.

Since we have a number of places where we workaround timing issues with

of processing them by calling usleep in a loop for a fixed number of

407a281a8e Revert "Prevent more compiler optimization of mockable functions"
This reverts commit e4b980c853.

When a binary links against a .a archive (as opposed to a shared library),
any symbols which are marked as 'weak' get silently dropped. As a result
when the binary later runs, those 'weak' functions have an address of
0x0 and thus crash when run.

This happened with virtlogd and virtlockd because they don't link to
libvirt.so, but instead just libvirt_util.a and libvirt_rpc.a. The
virRandomBits symbols was weak and so left out of the virtlogd &
virtlockd binaries, despite being required by virHashTable functions.

Various other binaries like libvirt_lxc, libvirt_iohelper, etc also
link directly to .a files instead of libvirt.so, so are potentially
at risk of dropping symbols leading to a later runtime crash.

This is normal linker behaviour because a weak symbol is not treated
as undefined, so nothing forces it to be pulled in from the .a You
have to force the linker to pull in weak symbols using -u$SYMNAME
which is not a practical approach.

This risk is silent bad linkage that affects runtime behaviour is
not acceptable for a fix that was merely trying to fix the test
suite. So stop using __weak__ again.

e4b980c853 Prevent more compiler optimization of mockable functions
Currently all mockable functions are annotated with the 'noinline'
attribute. This is insufficient to guarantee that a function can
be reliably mocked with an LD_PRELOAD. The C language spec allows
the compiler to assume there is only a single implementation of
each function. It can thus do things like propagating constant
return values into the caller at compile time, or creating
multiple specialized copies of the function body each optimized
for a different caller. To prevent these optimizations we must
also set the 'noclone' and 'weak' attributes.

This fixes the test suite when libvirt.so is built with CLang
with optimization enabled.

728cacc8ab annotate all mocked functions with noinline
CLang's optimizer is more aggressive at inlining functions than
gcc and so will often inline functions that our tests want to
mock-override. This causes the test to fail in bizarre ways.

We don't want to disable inlining completely, but we must at
least prevent inlining of mocked functions. Fortunately there
is a 'noinline' attribute that lets us control this per function.

A syntax check rule is added that parses tests/*mock.c to extract
the list of functions that are mocked (restricted to names starting
with 'vir' prefix). It then checks that src/*.h header file to
ensure it has a 'ATTRIBUTE_NOINLINE' annotation. This should prevent
use from bit-rotting in future.

1b046a6837 virfile: Rename virFileUnlink to virFileRemove
Similar to commit id '35847860', it's possible to attempt to create
a 'netfs' directory in an NFS root-squash environment which will cause

the 'vol-create' would result in an error to remove a created directory
if the permissions were incorrect (and disallowed root access).

Thus rename the virFileUnlink to be virFileRemove to match the C API
functionality, adjust the code to following using rmdir or unlink
depending on the path type, and then use/call it for the VIR_STORAGE_VOL_DIR

18f03166fd virstoragefile: Have virStorageFileResize use safezero
Currently virStorageFileResize() function uses build conditionals to
choose either the posix_fallocate() or syscall(SYS_fallocate) with no
fallback in order to preallocate the space in the newly resized file.

Since the safezero code has a similar set of conditionals modify the
resize and safezero code in order to allow the resize logic to make use
of safezero to unify the look/feel of the code paths.

Add a new boolean (resize) to safezero() to make the optional decision
whether to try syscall(SYS_fallocate) if the posix_fallocate fails because
HAVE_POSIX_FALLOCATE is not defined (eg, return -1 and errno == 0).

Create a local safezero_sys_fallocate in order to handle the resize
code paths that support that.  If not present, the set errno = ENOSYS
in order to allow the caller to handle the failure scenarios.

f9ce7dad60 Desert the FSF address in copyright
Per the FSF address could be changed from time to time, and GNU
recommends the following now: (http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html)

  You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License
  along with Foobar.  If not, see <http://www.gnu.org/licenses/>.

This patch removes the explicit FSF address, and uses above instead
(of course, with inserting 'Lesser' before 'General').

Except a bunch of files for security driver, all others are changed
automatically, the copyright for securify files are not complete,
that's why to do it manually:

  src/security/security_selinux.h
  src/security/security_driver.h
  src/security/security_selinux.c
  src/security/security_apparmor.h
  src/security/security_apparmor.c

9612e4b2e7 Move loop device setup code into virfile.{c,h}
While it is not currently used elsewhere in libvirt, the code
for finding a free loop device & associating a file with it
is not LXC specific. Move it into the viffile.{c,h} file where
potentially shared code is more commonly kept.

11bdab02c2 maint: include ignore-value in internal.h
The ignore_value macro is used across libvirt. This patch includes it in
the internal header and cleans all other includes.

d581313acf util: Fix deadlock in virLogReset
When libvirtd forks off a new child, the child then calls virLogReset(),
which ends up closing file descriptors used as log outputs. However, we
recently started logging closed file descriptors, which means we need to
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.

dfd4584317 file: Log closing filedescriptors
EBADF errors are logged as warnings as they normally indicate a double
close bug. This patch also provides VIR_MASS_CLOSE helper to be user in
the only case of mass close after fork when EBADF should rather be
ignored.

9d2ac5453e qemu: Make sure qemu can access its directory in hugetlbfs
When libvirtd is started, we create "libvirt/qemu" directories under
hugetlbfs mount point. Only the "qemu" subdirectory is chowned to qemu
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.

* src/util/virfile.h: the virFileWrapperFdFlags being defined as
  a globa variable instead of a type ended up generating a duplicate

afe6e58aed util: Generalize virFileDirectFd
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.

ef7efbc6ef Add virFileTouch for creating empty files
Add a virFileTouch API which ensures that a file will always
exist, even if zero length

559644ddd2 Introduce virFileRewrite for safe file rewrite
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.

519a1c4379 save: add virFileDirectFd wrapper type
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.
