To enable virsh console (or equivalent) to be used remotely
it is necessary to provide remote access to the /dev/pts/XXX
pseudo-TTY associated with the console/serial/parallel device
in the guest. The virStream API provide a bi-directional I/O
stream capability that can be used for this purpose. This
patch thus introduces a virDomainOpenConsole API that uses
the stream APIs.
* src/libvirt.c, src/libvirt_public.syms,
include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in, src/driver.h: Define the
new virDomainOpenConsole API
* src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/lxc/lxc_driver.c,
src/opennebula/one_driver.c, src/openvz/openvz_driver.c,
src/phyp/phyp_driver.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c,
src/remote/remote_driver.c, src/test/test_driver.c,
src/uml/uml_driver.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c,
src/xen/xen_driver.c, src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c: Stub
API entry point
The current remote driver code for streams only supports
blocking I/O mode. This is fine for the usage with migration
but is a problem for more general use cases, in particular
bi-directional streams.
This adds supported for the stream callbacks and non-blocking
I/O. with the minor caveat is that it doesn't actually do
non-blocking I/O for sending stream data, only receiving it.
A future patch will try to do non-blocking sends, but this is
quite tricky to get right.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Allow non-blocking I/O for
streams and support callbacks
The /dev/console device inside the container must NOT map
to the real /dev/console device node, since this allows the
container control over the current host console. A fun side
effect of this is that starting a container containing a
real Fedora OS will kill off your X server.
Remove the /dev/console node, and replace it with a symlink
to the primary console TTY
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Replace /dev/console with a
symlink to /dev/pty/0
* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c: Remove /dev/console from cgroups
ACL
* tools/virsh.c (vshParseArgv): Use NULL instead of 0 for pointer,
and symbolic names for has_arg. Give --version an optional arg.
(vshUsage): Document this.
* tools/virsh.pod: Likewise.
QEMU allows forcing a CDROM eject even if the guest has locked the device.
Expose this via a new UpdateDevice flag, VIR_DOMAIN_DEVICE_MODIFY_FORCE.
This has been requested for RHEV:

v2: Change flag name, bool cleanups

Regression of forcing 0700 permissions (which breaks guest startup
because the qemu user can't see /var/lib/libvirt/*.monitor) was
introduced in commit 66823690e, as part of libvirt 0.8.2.
* libvirt.spec.in (%files): Drop %{_localstatedir}/lib/libvirt,
since libvirt depends on libvirt-client.
(%files client): Guarantee 755 permissions on
%(_localstatedir}/lib/libvirt, since the qemu user must be able to
do pathname resolution to a subdirectory.
I am trying to use a qcow image with libvirt where the backing 'file' is a
qemu-nbd server. Unfortunately virDomainDiskDefForeachPath() assumes that
backingStore is always a real file so something like 'nbd:0:3333' is rejected
because a file with that name cannot be accessed. Note that I am not worried
about directly using nbd images. That would require a new disk type with XML
markup, etc. I only want it to be permitted as a backingStore
The following patch implements danpb's suggestion:
> I think I'm inclined to push the logic for skipping NBD one stage higher.
> I'd rather expect virStorageFileGetMetadata() to return all backing
> stores, even if not files. The virDomainDiskDefForeachPath() method
> should definitely ignore non-file backing stores though.
>
> So what I'm thinking is to extend the virStorageFileMetadata struct and
> just add a 'bool isFile' field to it. Default this field to true, unless
> you see the prefix of nbd: in which case set it to false. The
> virDomainDiskDefForeachPath() method can then skip over any backing
> store with isFile == false

xencapstest calls xenHypervisorMakeCapabilitiesInternal with conn == NULL
which calls xenDaemonNodeGetTopology with conn == NULL when a recent
enough Xen was detected (sys_interface_version >= SYS_IFACE_MIN_VERS_NUMA).
But xenDaemonNodeGetTopology insists in having conn != NULL and fails,
because it expects to be able to talk to an actual xend.
We cannot do that in a 'make check' test. Therefore, only call the xend
subdriver function when conn isn't NULL.

Using automated replacement with sed and editing I have now replaced all
occurrences of close() with VIR_(FORCE_)CLOSE() except for one, of
course. Some replacements were straight forward, others I needed to pay
attention. I hope I payed attention in all the right places... Please
have a look. This should have at least solved one more double-close
error.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Fix merge error which left SPICE channel
elements under VNC schema.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: Add SPICE flag to kvm-83 test
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice.xml: Add
<memballoon> element
This extends the SPICE XML to allow channel security options
<graphics type='spice' port='-1' tlsPort='-1' autoport='yes'>
<channel name='main' mode='secure'/>
<channel name='record' mode='insecure'/>
</graphics>
Any non-specified channel uses the default, which allows both
secure & insecure usage
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Add XML syntax for specifying per
channel security options for spice.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Configure channel security with spice
QEMU crashes & burns if you try multiple Cirrus video cards, but
QXL copes fine. Adapt QEMU config code to allow multiple QXL
video cards
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Support multiple QXL video cards
This extends the XML syntax for <graphics> to allow a password
expiry time to be set
eg
<graphics type='vnc' port='5900' autoport='yes' keymap='en-us' passwd='12345' passwdValidTo='2010-04-09T15:51:00'/>
The timestamp is in UTC.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: Pull passwd out into separate struct
virDomainGraphicsAuthDef to allow sharing between VNC & SPICE
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: Add parsing/formatting of new passwdValidTo
argument
* src/opennebula/one_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c,
src/xen/xend_internal.c, src/xen/xm_internal.c: Update for changed
struct containing VNC password
In common with VNC, the QEMU driver configuration file is used
specify the host level TLS certificate location and a default
password / listen address
* src/qemu/qemu.conf: Add spice_listen, spice_tls,
spice_tls_x509_cert_dir & spice_password config params
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Parsing of
spice config parameters and updating -spice arg generation
to use them
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice-rhel6.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: Expand test case to cover driver
level configuration
This supports the -spice argument posted for review against
the latest upstream QEMU/KVM. This supports the bare minimum
config with port, TLS port & listen address. The x509 bits are
added in a later patch.
* src/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu_conf.h: Add SPICE flag. Check for
-spice availability. Format -spice arg for command line
* qemuhelptest.c: Add SPICE flag
* qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice.args: Add <graphics>
for spice
* qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice.xml: Add -spice arg
* qemuxml2argvtest.c: Add SPICE flag
This supports the '-vga qxl' parameter in upstream QEMU/KVM
which has SPICE support added. This isn't particularly useful
until you get the next patch for -spice support. Also note that
while the libvirt XML supports multiple video devices, this
patch only supports a single one. A later patch can add support
for 2nd, 3rd, etc PCI devices for QXL
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Flag for QXL support
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Probe for '-vga qxl' support and implement it
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c, tests/qemuxml2xmltest.c,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-graphics-spice.xml: Test
case for generating spice args with RHEL6 kvm
This adds an element
<graphics type='spice' port='5903' tlsPort='5904' autoport='yes' listen='127.0.0.1'/>
This is the bare minimum that should be exposed in the guest
config for SPICE. Other parameters are better handled as per
host level configuration tunables
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Define the SPICE <graphics> schema
* src/domain_conf.h, src/domain_conf.c: Add parsing and formatting
for SPICE graphics config
* src/qemu_conf.c: Complain about unsupported graphics types
* src/qemu_conf.c: Add dummy entry in enumeration
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add 'qxl' as a type for the <video> tag
* src/domain_conf.c, src/domain_conf.h: Add QXL to video type
enumerations
To ease debugging this trivial patch allows to find what was compiled
in in the local version of libvirt, this doesn't work for remote access
but that's probably sufficient. With the patch I get on my machine:
paphio:~/libvirt/tools -> ./virsh -V
Virsh command line tool of libvirt 0.8.4
See web site at http://libvirt.org/
Compiled with support for:
Hypervisors: Xen QEmu/KVM UML OpenVZ LXC ESX PHYP Test
Networking: Remote Daemon Network Bridging Netcf Nwfilter
Storage: Dir Disk Filesystem SCSI Multipath iSCSI LVM
Miscellaneous: SELinux Secrets Debug Readline
paphio:~/libvirt/tools ->
* tools/virsh.c: add -V option
* tools/virsh.pod: document the extension
There is no point in trying to fill params beyond the first error,
because when lxcDomainGetMemoryParameters returns -1 then the caller
cannot detect which values in params are valid.
The patch is based on the possiblity in the QEmu command line to
add -smbios options allowing to override the default values picked
by QEmu. We need to detect this first from QEmu help output.
If the domain is defined with smbios to be inherited from host
then we pass the values coming from the Host own SMBIOS, but
if the domain is defined with smbios to come from sysinfo, we
use the ones coming from the domain definition.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: add the QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_SMBIOS_TYPE enum
value
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: scan the help output for the smbios support,
and if available add support based on the domain definitions,
and host data
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: add the new enum in the outputs
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
the element has a mode attribute allowing only 3 values:
- emulate: use the smbios emulation from the hypervisor
- host: try to use the smbios values from the node
- sysinfo: grab the values from the <sysinfo> fields
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: extend the schemas
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: add the flag to the domain config
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: parse and serialize the smbios if present
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: defines a new internal type added to the
domain structure
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: parsing and serialization of that new type
Now that the virsh parsing has been revamped, we can
implement qemu-monitor-command. This is basically the same
as it was in previous iterations, but has now been tested to
work both with the plain text monitor and the QMP monitor.

During a shutdown/restart cycle libvirtd forgot the macvtap device name that it had created on behalf of a VM so that a stale macvtap device remained on the host when the VM terminated. Libvirtd has to actively tear down a macvtap device and it uses its name for identifying which device to tear down.
The solution is to not blank out the <target dev='...'/> completely, but only blank it out on VMs that are not active. So, if a VM is active, the device name makes it into the XML and is also being parsed. If a VM is not active, the device name is discarded.
libvirtd.conf uses "libvirt" as the value of "unix_sock_group",
however, group "libvirt" may not exist on the system, in this case
the case will always fail.
As a solution, replace "libvirt" with "$USER" in "tmp.conf".
virPipeReadUntilEOF is used to read the stdout of exec'ed
and this could fail to capture the full output and read only
1024 bytes.
The problem is that this is based on a poll loop, and in the
loop we read at most 1024 bytes per file descriptor, but we also
note in the loop if poll indicates that the process won't output
more than that on that fd by setting finished[i] = 1.
The simplest way is that if we read a full buffer make sure
finished[i] is still 0 because we will need another pass in the
loop.
Commit e8066d53 broke the build with polkit0:
remote.c: In function 'remoteDispatchAuthPolkit':
remote.c:4177: error: 'rv' undeclared (first use in this function)
Add missing identifier.
The remoteIO() method has wierd calling conventions, where
it is passed a pre-allocated 'struct remote_call *' but
then free()s it itself, instead of letting the caller free().
This fixes those weird semantics
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Sanitize semantics of remoteIO
method wrt to memory release
