VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG implies that an argument cannot possibly
be correct, given the current state of the API.
VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED implies that a configuration is
wrong, but arguments aren't configuration.
VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT implies that a function is completely
unimplemented.
But in the case of a function that is partially implemented,
yet the full power of the API is not available for that
driver, none of the above messages make sense. Hence a new
error message, implying that the argument is known to comply
with the current state of the API, and that while the driver
supports aspects of the function, it does not support that
particular use of the argument.
A good use case for this is a driver that supports
virDomainSaveFlags, but not the dxml argument of that API.
It might be feasible to also use this new error for all functions
that check flags, and which accept fewer flags than what is possible
in the public API. But doing so would get complicated, since
neither libvirt.c nor the remote driver may do flag filtering,
and every other driver would have to do a two-part check, first
using virCheckFlags on all public flags (which gives
VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG for an impossible flag), followed by a
particular mask check for VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED (for a
possible public flag but unsupported by this driver).
* include/libvirt/virterror.h (VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED): New
error.
* src/util/virterror.c (virErrorMsg): Give it a message.
Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.
It is common to see the sequence:
virErrorPtr save_err = virSaveLastError();
// do cleanup
virSetError(save_err);
virFreeError(save_err);
on cleanup paths. But for functions where it is desirable to
return the errno that caused failure, this sequence can clobber
that errno. virFreeError was already safe; this makes the other
two functions in the sequence safe as well, assuming all goes
well (on OOM, errno will be clobbered, but then again, save_err
won't reflect the real error that happened, so you are no longer
preserving the real situation - that's life with OOM).
* src/util/virterror.c (virSaveLastError, virSetError): Preserve
errno.
Define the basic framework lock manager plugins. The
basic plugin API for 3rd parties to implemented is
defined in
src/locking/lock_driver.h
This allows dlopen()able modules for alternative locking
schemes, however, we do not install the header. This
requires lock plugins to be in-tree allowing changing of
the lock manager plugin API in future.
The libvirt code for loading & calling into plugins
is in
src/locking/lock_manager.{c,h}
* include/libvirt/virterror.h, src/util/virterror.c: Add
VIR_FROM_LOCKING
* src/locking/lock_driver.h: API for lock driver plugins
to implement
* src/locking/lock_manager.c, src/locking/lock_manager.h:
Internal API for managing locking
* src/Makefile.am: Add locking code
We don't use the gnulib vsnprintf replacement, which means that
on mingw, vsnprintf doesn't support %zn or %lln.
And as it turns out, VIR_GET_VAR_STR was a rather inefficient
reimplementation of virVasprintf logic.
* src/util/logging.c (VIR_GET_VAR_STR): Drop.
(virLogMessage): Inline a simpler version here.
* src/util/virterror.c (VIR_GET_VAR_STR, virRaiseErrorFull):
Likewise.

This error code has existed since the dawn of time, yet the messages it
generates are almost universally busted. Here's a small sampling:
src/conf/domain_conf.c:4889 : XML description for missing root element is not well formed or invalid
src/conf/domain_conf.c:4951 : XML description for unknown device type is not well formed or invalid
src/conf/domain_conf.c:5460 : XML description for maximum vcpus must be an integer is not well formed or invalid
src/conf/domain_conf.c:5468 : XML description for invalid maxvcpus %(count)lu is not well formed or invalid
Fix up the error code to instead be
XML error: <msg>
Adjust the few locations that were using the original correctly (or shouldn't
have been using the error code at all).
v2:
Fix wording of error code without a passed argument
New APIs are added allowing streaming of content to/from
storage volumes.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Add virStorageVolUpload and
virStorageVolDownload APIs
* src/driver.h, src/libvirt.c, src/libvirt_public.syms: Stub
code for new APIs
* src/storage/storage_driver.c, src/esx/esx_storage_driver.c:
Add dummy entries in driver table for new APIs
Add a new xen driver based on libxenlight [1], which is the primary
toolstack starting with Xen 4.1.0. The driver is stateful and runs
privileged only.
Like the existing xen-unified driver, the libxenlight driver is
accessed with xen:// URI. Driver selection is based on the status
of xend. If xend is running, the libxenlight driver will not load
and xen:// connections are handled by xen-unified. If xend is not
running *and* the libxenlight driver is available, xen://
connections are deferred to the libxenlight driver.
V6:
- Address several code style issues noted by Daniel Veillard
- Make drive work with xen:/// URI
- Hold domain object reference while domain is injected in
libvirt event loop. Race found and fixed by Markus Groß.
V5:
- Ensure events are unregistered when domain private data
is destroyed. Discovered and fixed by Markus Groß.
V4:
- Handle restart of libvirtd, reconnecting to previously
started domains
- Rebased to current master
- Tested against Xen 4.1 RC7-pre (c/s 22961:c5d121fd35c0)
V3:
- Reserve vnc port within driver when autoport=yes
V2:
- Update to Xen 4.1 RC6-pre (c/s 22940:5a4710640f81)
- Rebased to current master
- Plug memory leaks found by Stefano Stabellini and valgrind
- Handle SHUTDOWN_crash domain death event

Not all applications have an existing event loop they need
to integrate with. Forcing them to implement the libvirt
event loop integration APIs is an undue burden. This just
exposes our simple poll() based implementation for apps
to use. So instead of calling
virEventRegister(....callbacks...)
The app would call
virEventRegisterDefaultImpl()
And then have a thread somewhere calling
static bool quit = false;

virEventRunDefaultImpl()
* daemon/libvirtd.c, tools/console.c,
tools/virsh.c: Convert to public event loop APIs

VIR_FROM_EVENTS
Add a hook to the error reporting APIs to allow specific
error messages to be filtered out. Wire up libvirtd to
remove VIR_ERR_NO_DOMAIN & similar error codes from the
logs. They are still logged at DEBUG level.
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Filter VIR_ERR_NO_DOMAIN and friends
* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/util/virterror.c,
src/util/virterror_internal.h: Hook for changing error
reporting level
This reverts the additions in commit
abff683f78
taking us back to state where all errors are fully logged
in both libvirtd and normal clients.
THe intent was to stop VIR_ERR_NO_DOMAIN (No such domain
with UUID XXXX) messages from client apps polluting syslog
The change affected all error codes, but more seriously,
it also impacted errors from internal libvirtd infrastructure
For example guest autostart no longer logged errors. The
libvirtd network code no longer logged some errors. This
makes debugging incredibly hard
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Remove error log priority filter
* src/util/virterror.c, src/util/virterror_internal.h: Remove
callback for overriding log priority
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for sigpipe and sigaction modules.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add siaction, sigpipe, strerror_r.
* tools/virsh.c (vshSetupSignals) [!SIGPIPE]: Delete, now that
gnulib guarantees it.
(SA_SIGINFO): Define for mingw fallback.
* src/util/virterror.c (virStrerror): Simplify, now that gnulib
guarantees the POSIX interface.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Drop redundant check.
(AM_PROG_CC_STDC): Move earlier, to keep autoconf happy.
There are cases when we want log an error message, and possibly free
some memory as part of the cleanup, while still preserving errno for a
caller, but the functions that log errors, and virFree (VIR_FREE) make
system calls that will clear errno. This patch preserves errno during
those most basic functions (corresponding to virReportSystemError(),
virReportOOMError(), networkReportError(), etc, as well as
virStrError()). It does *not preserve errno across calls to higher
level items such as virDispatchError(), as it's assumed the caller is
all finished with any need for errno by the time it dispatches the
error.
This reverts commit
Log all errors at level INFO to stop polluting syslog
04bd0360f3.
and makes virRaiseErrorFull() log errors at debug priority
when called from inside libvirtd. This stops libvirtd from
polluting it's own log with client errors at error priority
that'll be reported and logged on the client side anyway.
Everytime a public API returns an error, libvirtd pollutes
syslog with that error message. Reduce the error logging
level to INFO so these don't appear by default.
* src/util/virterror.c: Log all errors at INFO
To avoid the need for duplicating implementations of virStream
drivers, provide a generic implementation that can handle any
FD based stream. This code is copied from the existing impl
in the QEMU driver, with the locking moved into the stream
impl, and addition of a read callback
The FD stream code will refuse to operate on regular files or
block devices, since those can't report EAGAIN properly when
they would block on I/O
* include/libvirt/virterror.h, include/libvirt/virterror.h: Add
VIR_FROM_STREAM error domain
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove code obsoleted by the new
generic streams driver.
* src/fdstream.h, src/fdstream.c, src/fdstream.c,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Generic reusable FD based streams
Move existing routines about virSysinfoDef to an util module,
add a new entry point virSysinfoRead() to read the host values
with dmidecode
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h src/util/sysinfo.c
src/util/sysinfo.h: move to a new module, add virSysinfoRead()
* src/Makefile.am: handle the new module build
* src/libvirt_private.syms: new internal symbols
* include/libvirt/virterror.h src/util/virterror.c: defined a new
error code for that module
* po/POTFILES.in: add new file for translations
Integrate with libaudit.so for auditing of important operations.
libvirtd gains a couple of config entries for auditing. By
default it will enable auditing, if its enabled on the host.
It can be configured to force exit if auditing is disabled
on the host. It will can also send audit messages via libvirt
internal logging API
Places requiring audit reporting can use the VIR_AUDIT
macro to report data. This is a no-op unless auditing is
enabled
* autobuild.sh, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Disable audit
on mingw
* configure.ac: Add check for libaudit
* daemon/libvirtd.aug, daemon/libvirtd.conf,
daemon/test_libvirtd.aug, daemon/libvirtd.c: Add config
options to enable auditing
* include/libvirt/virterror.h, src/util/virterror.c: Add
VIR_FROM_AUDIT source
* libvirt.spec.in: Enable audit
* src/util/virtaudit.h, src/util/virtaudit.c: Simple internal
API for auditing messages
If there is no driver for a URI we report
"no hypervisor driver available"
This is bad because not all virt drivers are hypervisors (ie container
based virt).
If there is no driver support for an API we report
"this function is not supported by the hypervisor"
This is bad for the same reason, and additionally because it is
also used for the network, interface & storage drivers.
* src/util/virterror.c: Improve error messages
This patch adds the implementation of the public API for the network
filtering (ACL) extensions to libvirt.c .

virGetLastError returns NULL if no error has been set, not on
allocation error like virSetError assumed. Use virLastErrorObject
instead. This fixes virSetError when no error is currently stored.
The virRaiseErrorFull() may invoke the error handler callback
functions an application has registered. This is not good
because the connection object may not be available at this
point, and the caller may be holding locks. This creates a
problem if the error handler calls back into libvirt.
The solutuon is to move invocation of the handler into the
final cleanup code in the public API entry points, where it
is guarenteed to have safe state.
* src/libvirt.c: Invoke virDispatchError() in all error paths
* src/util/virterror.c: Remove virSetConnError/virSetGlobalError,
replacing with virDispatchError(). Move invocation of the
error callbacks into virDispatchError() instead of the
virRaiseErrorFull function which is not in a safe context
* include/libvirt/virterror.h src/util/virterror.c: add new domain
VIR_FROM_CPU for errors
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c src/conf/cpu_conf.h: new parsing module
* src/Makefile.am proxy/Makefile.am: include new files
* src/conf/capabilities.[ch] src/conf/domain_conf.[ch]: reference
new code
* src/libvirt_private.syms: private export of new entry points
Replace free(virBufferContentAndReset()) with virBufferFreeAndReset().
Update documentation and replace all remaining calls to free() with
calls to VIR_FREE(). Also add missing calls to virBufferFreeAndReset()
and virReportOOMError() in OOM error cases.
* src/xen/xen_driver.c: Add support for VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag
* src/xen/xend_internal.c: Add support for VIR_MIGRATE_UNDEFINE_SOURCE flag
* include/libvirt/virterror.h, src/util/virterror.c: Add new errorcode
VIR_ERR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_FAILED
Some monitor commands may take a very long time to complete. It is
not desirable to block other incoming API calls forever. With this
change, if an existing API call is holding the job lock, additional
API calls will not wait forever. They will time out after a short
period of time, allowing application to retry later.
* include/libvirt/virterror.h, src/util/virterror.c: Add new
VIR_ERR_OPERATION_TIMEOUT error code
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Change to a timed condition variable
wait for acquiring the monitor job lock
* include/libvirt/virterror.h src/util/virterror.c: add a new error
VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED for valid but unsupported configuration options
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Throw an error if guestfwd address isn't IPv4
and cleanup a number of parsing return error values.
We can slightly tighten up the regex's used to detect the use of
nonreentrant functions. We can also check src/util/virterror.c
by modifying a comment; I think it's worth it to get the additional
coverage.
