When libvirt's virDomainDestroy API is shutting down the qemu process,
it first sends SIGTERM, then waits for 1.6 seconds and, if it sees the
process still there, sends a SIGKILL.
There have been reports that this behavior can lead to data loss
because the guest running in qemu doesn't have time to flush its disk
cache buffers before it's unceremoniously whacked.
This patch maintains that default behavior, but provides a new flag
VIR_DOMAIN_DESTROY_GRACEFUL to alter the behavior. If this flag is set
in the call to virDomainDestroyFlags, SIGKILL will never be sent to
the qemu process; instead, if the timeout is reached and the qemu
process still exists, virDomainDestroy will return an error.
Once this patch is in, the recommended method for applications to call
virDomainDestroyFlags will be with VIR_DOMAIN_DESTROY_GRACEFUL
included. If that fails, then the application can decide if and when
to call virDomainDestroyFlags again without
VIR_DOMAIN_DESTROY_GRACEFUL (to force the issue with SIGKILL).
(Note that this does not address the issue of existing applications
that have not yet been modified to use VIR_DOMAIN_DESTROY_GRACEFUL.
That is a separate patch.)
Qemu is adding the ability to do a partial rebase. That is, given:
base <- intermediate <- current
virDomainBlockPull will produce:
current
but qemu now has the ability to leave base in the chain, to produce:
base <- current
Note that current qemu can only do a forward merge, and only with
the current image as the destination, which is fully described by
this API without flags. But in the future, it may be possible to
enhance this API for additional scenarios by using flags:
Merging the current image back into a previous image (that is,
undoing a live snapshot), could be done by passing base as the
destination and flags with a bit requesting a backward merge.
Merging any other part of the image chain, whether forwards (the
backing image contents are pulled into the newer file) or backwards
(the deltas recorded in the newer file are merged back into the
backing file), could also be done by passing a new flag that says
that base should be treated as an XML snippet rather than an
absolute path name, where the XML could then supply the additional
instructions of which part of the image chain is being merged into
any other part.

We already provide ways to detect when a domain has been paused as a
result of I/O error, but there was no way of getting the exact error or
even the device that experienced it. This new API may be used for both.
Our existing virDomainBlockResize takes an unsigned long long
argument; if that command is later taught a DELTA and SHRINK flag,
we cannot change its type without breaking API (but at least such
a change would be ABI compatible). Meanwhile, the only time a
negative size makes sense is if both DELTA and SHRINK are used
together, but if we keep the argument unsigned, applications can
pass the positive delta amount by which they would like to shrink
the system, and have the flags imply the negative value. So,
since this API has not yet been released, and in the interest of
consistency with existing API, we swap virStorageVolResize to
always pass an unsigned value.

argument.

Unlike other users of virTypedParameter with RPC, this interface
can return zero-filled entries because the interface assumes
2 dimensional array. We compress these entries out from the
server when generating the over-the-wire contents, then reconstitute
them in the client.

Currently, we support only filling a volume with zeroes on wiping.
However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been
written, therefore we should support other wiping algorithms.
Add a new API virDomainShutdownFlags and define:
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_DEFAULT = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_ACPI_POWER_BTN = (1 << 0),
VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTDOWN_GUEST_AGENT = (1 << 1),
Also define some flags for the reboot API
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_DEFAULT = 0,
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_ACPI_POWER_BTN = (1 << 0),
VIR_DOMAIN_REBOOT_GUEST_AGENT = (1 << 1),
Although these two APIs currently have the same flags, using
separate enums allows them to expand separately in the future.
Add stub impls of the new API for all existing drivers
Commit 5d784bd6d7 was a nice attempt to
clarify the semantics by requiring domain name from dxml to either match
original name or dname. However, setting dxml domain name to dname
doesn't really work since destination host needs to know the original
domain name to be able to use it in migration cookies. This patch
requires domain name in dxml to match the original domain name. The
change should be safe and backward compatible since migration would fail
just a bit later in the process.
When disk snapshots were first implemented, libvirt blindly refused
to allow an external snapshot destination that already exists, since
qemu will blindly overwrite the contents of that file during the
snapshot_blkdev monitor command, and we don't like a default of
data loss by default. But VDSM has a scenario where NFS permissions
are intentionally set so that the destination file can only be
created by the management machine, and not the machine where the
guest is running, so that libvirt will necessarily see the destination
file already existing; adding a flag will allow VDSM to force the file
reuse without libvirt complaining of possible data loss.

I previously mentioned [1] a PolicyKit issue where libvirt would
proceed with authentication even though polkit-auth failed:

polkit-grant-helper: given auth type (8 -> yes) is bogus
Failed to obtain authorization for org.libvirt.unix.manage.

0 Domain-0 running

AFAICT, libvirt attempts to obtain a privilege it already has,
causing polkit-auth to fail with above message. Instead of calling
obtain and then checking auth, IMO the workflow should be for the
server to check auth first, and if that fails ask the client to
obtain it and check again. This workflow also allows for checking
only successful exit of polkit-auth in virConnectAuthGainPolkit().

Drivers were inconsistent when presented both --live and --config
at once. For example, within qemu, getting memory parameters
favored live, getting blkio tuning favored config, and getting
scheduler parameters errored out. Also, some, but not all,
attempts to mix flags on query were filtered at the virsh level.
We shouldn't have to duplicate efforts in every client app, nor
in every driver. So, it is simpler to just enforce that the two
flags cannot both be used at once on query operations, which has
precedent in libvirt.c, and which matches the documentation of
virDomainModificationImpact.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainGetMemoryParameters)
(virDomainGetBlkioParameters)
(virDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags, virDomainGetVcpuPinInfo):
Borrow sanity checking from virDomainGetVcpusFlags.
The new API is named as "virDomainBlockResize", intending to add
support for qemu monitor command "block_resize" (both HMP and QMP).
Similar with APIs like "virDomainSetMemoryFlags", the units for
argument "size" is kilobytes.
Add the core functions that implement the functionality of the API.
Suspend is done by using an asynchronous mechanism so that we can return
the status to the caller before the host gets suspended. This asynchronous
operation is achieved by suspending the host in a separate thread of
execution. However, returning the status to the caller is only best-effort,
but not guaranteed.
To resume the host, an RTC alarm is set up (based on how long we want to
suspend) before suspending the host. When this alarm fires, the host
gets woken up.
Suspend-to-RAM operation on a host running Linux can take upto more than 20
seconds, depending on the load of the system. (Freezing of tasks, an operation
preceding any suspend operation, is given up after a 20 second timeout).
And Suspend-to-Disk can take even more time, considering the time required
for compaction, creating the memory image and writing it to disk etc.
So, we do not allow the user to specify a suspend duration of less than 60
seconds, to be on the safer side, since we don't want to prematurely declare
failure when we only had to wait for some more time.
This API can be used to check if the socket associated with
virConnectPtr is still open or it was closed (probably because keepalive
protocol timed out). If there the connection is local (i.e., no socket
is associated with the connection, it is trivially always alive.
virConnectSetKeepAlive public API can be used by a client connecting to
remote server to start using keepalive protocol. The API is handled
directly by remote driver and not transmitted over the wire to the
server.
Given that we can now handle the target's disk shorthand, in addition
to an absolute path to the file or block device used on the host,
the term 'disk' fits a bit better as the parameter name than 'path'.

documentation and the remaining function.

This allows strings to be transported between client and server
in the context of name-type-value virTypedParameter functions.
For compatibility,
o new clients will not send strings to old servers, based on
a feature check
o new servers will not send strings to old clients without the
flag VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING_OKAY; this will be enforced at
the RPC layer in the next patch, so that drivers need not
worry about it in general. The one exception is that
virDomainGetSchedulerParameters lacks a flags argument, so
it must not return a string; drivers that forward that
function on to virDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags will
have to pay attention to the flag.
o the flag VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING_OKAY is set automatically,
based on a feature check (so far, no driver implements it),
so clients do not have to worry about it
Future patches can then enable the feature on a per-driver basis.
This patch also ensures that drivers can blindly strdup() field

Since a snapshot is fully recoverable, it is useful to have a
snapshot as a means of hibernating a guest, then reverting to
the snapshot to wake the guest up. This mode of usage is
similar to 'virsh save/virsh restore', except that virsh
save uses an external file while virsh snapshot keeps the
vm state internal to a qcow2 file. However, it only works on
persistent domains.
In the usage pattern of snapshot/revert for hibernating a guest,
there is no need to keep the guest running between the two points
in time, especially since that would generate runtime state that
would just be discarded. Add a flag to make it possible to
stop the domain after the snapshot has completed.

Reverting to a state prior to an external snapshot risks
corrupting any other branches in the snapshot hierarchy that
were using the snapshot as a read-only backing file. So
disk snapshot code will default to preventing reverting to
a snapshot that has any children, meaning that deleting just
the children of a snapshot becomes a useful operation in
preparing that snapshot for being a future reversion target.
The code for the new flag is simple - it's one less deletion,
plus a tweak to keep the current snapshot correct.

Based on a patch by Philipp Hahn.
Just as leaving managed save metadata behind can cause problems
when creating a new domain that happens to collide with the name
of the just-deleted domain, the same is true of leaving any
snapshot metadata behind. For safety sake, extend the semantic
change of commit b26a9fa9 to also cover snapshot metadata as a
reason to reject undefining an inactive domain. A future patch
will make sure that shutdown of a transient domain automatically
deletes snapshot metadata (whether by destroy, shutdown, or
guest-initiated action). Management apps of transient domains
should take care to capture xml of snapshots, if it is necessary
to recreate the snapshot metadata on a later transient domain
with the same name and uuid.
This also documents a new flag that hypervisors can choose to
support as a shortcut for taking care of the metadata as part of
the undefine process; however, nontrivial driver support for these
flags will be deferred to future patches.
Note that ESX and VBox can never be transient; therefore, they
do not have to worry about automatic cleanup after shutdown
(the persistent domain still remains); likewise they never
store snapshot metadata, so the undefine flag is trivial.
The nontrivial work remaining is thus in the qemu driver.

The first two flags are essential for being able to replicate
snapshot hierarchies across multiple hosts, which will come in
handy for supervised migrations. It also allows a management app
to take a snapshot of a transient domain, save the metadata, stop
the domain, recreate a new transient domain by the same name,
redefine the snapshot, then revert to it.
This is not quite as convenient as leaving the metadata behind
after a domain is no longer around, but doing that has a few
problems: 1. the libvirt API can only delete snapshot metadata
if there is a valid domain handle to use to get to that snapshot
object - if stale data is left behind without a domain, there is
no way to request that the data be cleaned up. 2. creating a new
domain with the same name but different uuid than the older
domain where a snapshot existed cannot use the older snapshot
data; this risks confusing libvirt, and forbidding the stale
data is similar to the recent patch to forbid stale managed save.
The first two flags might be useful on hypervisors with no metadata,
but only for modifying the notion of the current snapshot;
however, I don't know how to do that for ESX or VBox.
The third flag is a convenience option, to combine a creation with
a delete metadata into one step. It is trivial for hypervisors
with no metadata.
The qemu changes will be involved enough to warrant a separate patch.

To make it easier to know when undefine will fail because of existing
snapshot metadata, we need to know how many snapshots have metadata.
Also, it is handy to filter the list of snapshots to just those that
have no parents; document that flag now, but implement it in later patches.

A future patch will make it impossible to remove a domain if it
would leave behind any libvirt-tracked metadata about snapshots,
since stale metadata interferes with a new domain by the same name.
But requiring snaphot contents to be deleted before removing a
domain is harsh; with qemu, qemu-img can still make use of the
contents after the libvirt domain is gone. Therefore, we need
an option to get rid of libvirt tracking information, but not
the actual contents. For hypervisors that do not track any
metadata in libvirt, the implementation is trivial; all remaining
hypervisors (really, just qemu) will be dealt with separately.

(VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_DELETE_METADATA_ONLY): New flag.

While it is nice that snapshots and saved images remember whether
the domain was running or paused, sometimes the restoration phase
wants to guarantee a particular state (paused to allow hot-plugging,
or running without needing to call resume). This introduces new
flags to allow the control, and a later patch will implement the
flags for qemu.

This patch adds the ability to make the filesystem for a filesystem
pool during a pool build.
The patch adds two new flags, no overwrite and overwrite, to control
when mkfs gets executed. By default, the patch preserves the
current behavior, i.e., if no flags are specified, pool build on a
filesystem pool only makes the directory on which the filesystem
will be mounted.
If the no overwrite flag is specified, the target device is checked
to determine if a filesystem of the type specified in the pool is
present. If a filesystem of that type is already present, mkfs is
not executed and the build call returns an error. Otherwise, mkfs
is executed and any data present on the device is overwritten.
If the overwrite flag is specified, mkfs is always executed, and any
existing data on the target device is overwritten unconditionally.
There is no reason to forbid pausing an autodestroy domain
(not to mention that 'virsh start --paused --autodestroy'
succeeds in creating a paused autodestroy domain).
Meanwhile, qemu was failing to enforce the API documentation that
autodestroy domains cannot be saved. And while the original
documentation only mentioned save/restore, snapshots are another
form of saving that are close enough in semantics as to make no
sense on one-shot domains.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSuspend): Drop bogus check.
(qemuDomainSaveInternal, qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Forbid

* src/libvirt.c (virDomainCreateWithFlags, virDomainCreateXML):

There have been several instances of people having problems with
a broken managed save file, and not aware that they could use
'virsh managedsave-remove dom' to fix things. Making it possible
to do this as part of starting a domain makes the same functionality
easier to find, and one less API call.

When virStreamAbort is called on a stream that has not been used yet,

nothing to abort anyway.
If migration failed on source daemon, the migration is automatically
canceled by the daemon itself. Thus we don't need to call

Transient domains reject attempts to set autostart, and using
virDomainCreate to restart a domain only works on persistent
domains. Therefore, managed save makes no sense on transient
domains, and should be rejected up front rather than creating
an otherwise unrecoverable managed save file.
Besides, transient domains imply that a lot more management is
being done by the upper layer; this includes the assumption
that the upper layer is okay managing the saved state file
created by virDomainSave, and does not need to use managed save.

Make MIGRATION_OUT use the new helper methods.
This also introduces new protection to migration v3 process: the
migration job is held from Begin to Confirm to avoid changes to a domain
during migration (esp. between Begin and Perform phases). This change is
automatically applied to p2p and tunneled migrations. For normal
migration, this requires support from a client. In other words, if an
old (pre 0.9.4) client starts normal migration of a domain, the domain
will not be protected against changes between Begin and Perform steps.
Now that virDomainSetVcpusFlags knows about VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CURRENT,
so should virDomainGetVcpusFlags.
Unfortunately, the virsh counterpart 'virsh vcpucount' has already
commandeered --current for a different meaning, so teaching virsh
to expose this in the next patch will require a bit of care.

Modifying the xml on either save or restore only gets you so
far - you have to remember to 'virsh dumpxml dom' just prior
to the 'virsh save' in order to have an xml file worth modifying
that won't be rejected due to abi breaks. To make this more
powerful, we need a way to grab the xml embedded within a state
file, and from there, it's not much harder to also support
modifying a state file in-place.
Also, virDomainGetXMLDesc didn't document its flags.

(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New prototypes.

This introduces new API virDomainDestroyFlags to allow
domain destroying with flags, as the existing API virDomainDestroy
misses flags.
The set of flags is defined in virDomainDestroyFlagsValues enum,
which is currently commented, because it is empty.
Calling this API with no flags set (@flags == 0) is equivalent calling
virDomainDestroy.
In order to choose whether to use O_DIRECT when saving a domain image
to a file, we need a new flag. But virDomainSave was implemented
before our policy of all new APIs having a flag argument. Likewise
for virDomainRestore when restoring from a file.
The new flag name is chosen as CACHE_BYPASS so as not to preclude
a future solution that uses posix_fadvise once the Linux kernel has
a smarter implementation of that interface.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainCreateFlags)
(virDomainCoreDumpFlags): Add a flag.
(virDomainSaveFlags, virDomainRestoreFlags): New prototypes.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSaveFlags, virDomainRestoreFlags): New API.
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSaveFlags, virDrvDomainRestoreFlags):
New driver callbacks.
This introduces a new API virDomainUndefineFlags to control the
domain undefine process, as the existing API virDomainUndefine
doesn't support flags.
Currently only flag VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE is supported.
If the domain has a managed save image, including
VIR_DOMAIN_UNDEFINE_MANAGED_SAVE in @flags will also remove that
file, and omitting the flag will cause undefine process to fail.
This patch also changes the behavior of virDomainUndefine, if the
domain has a managed save image, the undefine will be refused.
There were two API in driver.c that were silently masking flags
bits prior to calling out to the drivers, and several others
that were explicitly masking flags bits. This is not
forward-compatible - if we ever have that many flags in the
future, then talking to an old server that masks out the
flags would be indistinguishable from talking to a new server
that can honor the flag. In general, libvirt.c should forward
_all_ flags on to drivers, and only the drivers should reject
unknown flags.
In the case of virDrvSecretGetValue, the solution is to separate
the internal driver callback function to have two parameters
instead of one, with only one parameter affected by the public
API. In the case of virDomainGetXMLDesc, it turns out that
no one was ever mixing VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_STATUS with
the dumpxml path in the first place; that internal flag was
only used in saving and restoring state files, which happened
to be in functions internal to a single file, so there is no
mixing of the internal flag with a public flags argument.
Additionally, virDomainMemoryStats passed a flags argument
over RPC, but not to the driver.

Most APIs use 'unsigned int flags'; but a few stragglers were using
a signed value. In particular, the vir*GetXMLDesc APIs were
split-brain, with inconsistent choice of types. Although it is
an API break to use 'int' instead of 'unsigned int', it is ABI
compatible (pre-compiled apps will have no difference in behavior),
and generally apps can be recompiled without any issue (only rare
apps that compiled with extremely high warning levels, or which
pass libvirt API around as typed function pointers, would have to
make any code changes to deal with the change).
The migrate APIs use 'unsigned long flags', which can't be changed,
due to ABI constraints.
This patch intentionally touches only the public API, to prove the
claim that most existing code (including driver callbacks and virsh)
still compiles just fine in spite of the type change.

We already have a public virDomainPinVcpu, which implies that
Pin and Vcpu are treated as separate words. Unreleased commit
e261987c introduced virDomainGetVcpupinInfo as the first public

that spelling. For consistency, change the spelling to be two
words everywhere, regardless of whether pin comes first or last.

Suggested by Matthias Bolte.
This patch introduces a new libvirt API (virDomainGetVcpupinInfo),
as a counterpart to virDomainPinVcpuFlags.
We can use virDomainGetVcpus API to retrieve CPU affinity information,
but can't use this API against inactive domains (at least in case of KVM),
as it lacks a flags parameter.
The usual thing is to add a new virDomainGetVcpusFlags, but that API name
is already occupied by the counterpart to virDomainGetMaxVcpus, which
has a completely different signature.
The virDomainGetVcpupinInfo is the new API to retrieve CPU affinity
information of active and inactive domains. While the usual convention
is to list an array before its length, this API violates that rule
in order to be more like virDomainGetVcpus (where maxinfo was doing
double-duty as the length of two different arrays).

Integer overflow and remote code are never a nice mix.
This has existed since commit 56cd414.

When adding virDomainGetVcpusFlags in commit ea3f5c6, I did
enough rebasing that the doc comments in libvirt.c no longer
matched the final chosen enum names in libvirt.h.
And now we've gone ahead and deprecated the names
VIR_DOMAIN_VCPU_{LIVE,CONFIG}.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainGetVcpusFlags): Fix comment.
