There are a number of flaws with our packaging of the libvirtd
daemon:
- Installing 'libvirt' does not install 'qemu-kvm' or 'xen'
etc which are required to actually run the hypervisor in
question
- Installing 'libvirt' pulls in the default configuration
files which may not be wanted & cause problems if installed
inside a guest
- It is not possible to explicitly required all the peices
required to manage a specific hypervisor
This change takes the 'libvirt' RPM and and changes it thus
- libvirt: just a virtual package with dep on libvirt-daemon,
libvirt-daemon-config-network & libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter
- libvirt-daemon: the libvirt daemon and related pieces
- libvirt-daemon-config-network: the default network config
- libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter: the network filter configs
- libvirt-docs: the website HTML
We then introduce some more virtual (empty) packages
- libvirt-daemon-qemu: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'qemu'
- libvirt-daemon-kvm: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'qemu-kvm'
- libvirt-daemon-lxc: Deps on libvirt-daemon
- libvirt-daemon-uml: Deps on libvirt-daemon
- libvirt-daemon-xen: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'xen'
- libvirt-qemu: Deps on libvirt-daemon-qemu & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-kvm: Deps on libvirt-daemon-kvm & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-lxc: Deps on libvirt-daemon-lxc & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-uml: Deps on libvirt-daemon-uml & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-xen: Deps on libvirt-daemon-xen & libvirt-daemon-config-network
My intent in the future is to turn on the driver modules by
default, at which time 'libvirt-daemon' will cease to include
any specific drivers, instead we'll get libvirt-daemon-driver-XXXX
packages for each driver. The libvirt-daemon-XXX packages will
then pull in each driver that they require.
It is recommended that applications required a locally installed
libvirtd daemon, use either 'Requires: libvirt-daemon-XXXX' or
'Requires: libvirt-XXX' and *not* "Requires: libvirt-daemon"
or 'Requires: libvirt'

This patch was created to resolve this upstream bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=784767
and is at least a partial solution to this RHEL RFE:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805071
Previously the only attribute of a network device that could be
modified by virUpdateDeviceFlags() ("virsh update-device") was the
link state; attempts to change any other attribute would log an error
and fail.
This patch adds recognition of a change in bridge device name, and
supports reconnecting the guest's interface to the new device.
Standard audit logs for detaching and attaching a network device are
also generated. Although the current auditing function doesn't log the
bridge being attached to, this will later be changed in a separate
patch.

(virStorageVolTargetDefFormat): Cast gid_t and uid_t.
We are so close to a release that we don't want to pull in a
gnulib submodule update and risk regressions, since there has
been a lot of other gnulib churn upstream. However, there are
a couple of gnulib issues that are worth fixing in isolation,
by applying local patches to gnulib.
There was an upstream gnulib bug in maint.mk that rendered most
of our syntax checks ineffective (and fixing it flushed out a
minor bug in our code):
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-03/msg00194.html
There is still an upstream bug where gnulib uses the wrong type
for ssize_t on mingw; we need the fix now even though it has not
yet been accepted into gnulib:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2012-03/msg00188.html
* gnulib/local/top/maint.mk.diff: Pick up upstream gnulib
maint.mk.
* gnulib/local/m4/ssize_t.m4.diff: Work around gnulib bug.

qemuBuildHostNetStr had a switch-within-a-switch where both were
looking at the same variable. This was apparently to take advantage of
code common to three different cases (while also taking care of some
code that was different). However, there were only 2 lines common to
all, one of those can be eliminated by merging it into the
virAsprintfs that are in each case. On top of that, all the extra
empty cases cause Coverity complaints (because they are unreachable),
but absence of the empty cases causes a compile error due to
"enumeration value not handled in switch".
The solution is to just make each toplevel case independent, folding
in the common code to each.
commit b0e2bb33 set a default value for the SPICE agent channel by
inserting it during parsing of the channel XML. That method of setting
a default is problematic because it makes a format/parse roundtrip
unclean, and experience with setting other values as a side effect of
parsing has led to headaches (e.g. automatically setting a MAC address
in the parser when one isn't specified in the input XML).
This patch does not revert commit b0e2bb33 (it will be reverted in a
separate patch) but adds the alternate implementation of simply
inserting the default value in the appropriate place on the qemu
commandline when no value is provided.
If we issue guest command and GA is not running, the issuing thread
will block endlessly. We can check for GA presence by issuing
guest-sync with unique ID (timestamp). We don't want to issue real
command as even if GA is not running, once it is started, it process
all commands written to GA socket.
With latest gnulib we are checking even the lowest level functions
whether they check flags. Moreover, we are shadowing the real error
on system without TUNSETIFF support.
The code is splattered with a mix of
sizeof foo
sizeof (foo)
sizeof(foo)
Standardize on sizeof(foo) and add a syntax check rule to

When qemu cannot start, we may call qemuProcessStop() twice.
We have check whether the vm is running at the beginning of
qemuProcessStop() to avoid libvirt deadlock. We call
qemuProcessStop() with driver and vm locked. It seems that
we can avoid libvirt deadlock. But unfortunately we may
unlock driver and vm in the function qemuProcessKill() while
vm->def->id is not -1. So qemuProcessStop() will be run twice,
and monitor will be freed unexpectedly. So we should set
vm->def->id to -1 at the beginning of qemuProcessStop().
An upstream gnulib bug[1] meant that some of our syntax checks
weren't being run. Fix up our offenders before we upgrade to
a newer gnulib.

In the current V3 migration protocol, Libvirt does not
check the result of the function
qemuMigrationVPAssociatePortProfiles
This means that it is possible for a migration to complete
successfully even when the VM loses network connectivity on
the destination host.
With this change libvirt aborts the migration
(during the "finish" step) when the above function fails, that
is to say when at least one of the port profile associations fails.

libvirt documentation for channels with type 'spicevmc' says that the
'target' child node has:
"an optional attribute name controls how the guest will have access
to the channel, and defaults to name='com.redhat.spice.0'."
However, this default value is never set in libvirt code base,
there's only a check in qemu_command.c to error out if the name
attribute doesn't have the expected value (if it's set).
This commit sets a default target name for spicevmc channels during
the domain configuration parsing so that the code agrees with the
documentation.

* tools/virsh.pod (snapshot-create, snapshot-create-as): Fix typo
and match recent change in flag meaning.
Given that we auto-detect whether each -Wxxxx flag is supported by
GCC, and we are warning-free and use automake silent rules, there
is no compelling reason to allow compile warnings to be disabled.
Replace the --enable-compile-warnings flag with a simpler
--enable-werror flag, which defaults to 'yes' if building
from GIT, or 'no' if building from tar.gz
This helps ensure that everyone writing patches for libvirt will
take care to fix their warning problems before submitting for
review
* autobuild.sh: Force -Werror
* configure.ac: Update for LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS macro change
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4: Permanently enable all warnings,

Add a new flag '--with-test-suite' to configure to control whether
the test suite binaries are built by default. ie built with a
plain 'make', as opposed to delayed until 'make check'
For builds from tar.gz tests will not be built by default. For
builds from GIT, tests with be on by default, to try and ensure
that patch developers don't accidentally break the test suites
without noticing.
* configure.ac: Add --with-test-suite
* tests/Makefile.am: Use noinst_PROGRAMS instead of check_PROGRAMS
if building tests by default. Consolidate setting of TESTS and
{noinst,check}_PROGRAMS to avoid duplication
* Don't advertise information on the network without consent of
the user, either through manual configuration, or a user
interface that drives this option.
* Since libvirtd must be configured for network access anyway
(for all but ssh), this setting was not useful "out of the box",
so changing this default setting does not remove "out of the box"
functionality.
Commit d42a2ff caused a regression in creating a disk-only snapshot
of a qcow2 disk; by passing the wrong variable to the monitor call,
libvirt ended up creating JSON that looked like "format":null instead
of the intended "format":"qcow2".
To make it easier to diagnose this in the future, make JSON creation
error out if "s:arg" is paired with NULL (it is still possible to
use "n:arg" in the rare cases where qemu will accept a null).

This avoids possible deadlock of the qemu driver in case a domain is
begin migrated (in Begin phase) and unrelated connection to qemu driver
is closed at the right time.
I checked all callers of qemuDomainCheckEjectableMedia() and they are
calling this function with qemu driver locked.
Found when attempting to build on Fedora 17 alpha with:
./autogen.sh --system --enable-compile-warnings=error
(this same build command works without problem on Fedora 16). Since
the consumer of the qemuProcessReconnectData doesn't assume that the
other fields of the struct are initialized (although it uses them
internally), the simpler solution is to just switch to C99-style
struct initialization (which doesn't require specification of all
fields).
Found when attempting to build on Fedora 17 alpha with:
./autogen.sh --system --enable-compile-warnings=error
(this same build command works without problem on Fedora 16). All
other struct initializers for this struct have the extra field filled
in (almost always to 0), so the two errant ones were fixed by adding
in the extra 0 field.
libvirt always adds -Werror-frame-larger-than=4096 to the flags when
it builds. When building on Fedora 17, two functions with multiple
1024 buffers declared inside if {} blocks would generate frame size
errors; apparently the version of gcc on Fedora 16 will merge these
multiple buffers into a single buffer even when optimization is off,
but Fedora 17 won't.
The fix is to declare a single 1024 buffer at the top of the two
offending functions, and reuse the single buffer throughout the
functions.
After cleanup introduced with previous commit, there is a need for
syntax-check rule taking care of return(). Regexp used in 'prohibit'
parameter is taken from the cleanup commit and modified so it fits
'grep -E' format. Semicolon at the end is needed, otherwise the regexp
could match return with cast.
Exception is created for python source files because we don't have any
documentation restricting the use of return that matches this case.
Return statements with parameter enclosed in parentheses were modified
and parentheses were removed. The whole change was scripted, here is how:
List of files was obtained using this command:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$'
Found files were modified with this command:
sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Then checked for nonsense.
The whole command looks like this:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \
grep -e '\.[ch]$' -e '\.py$' | xargs sed -i -e \
's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\(\([^()]*([^()]*)[^()]*\)*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\4_' \
-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
When qparams support was dropped in commit bc1ff160, we forgot
to add tests to ensure that viruri can do the same round trip
handling of a URI. This round trip was broken, due to use
of the old 'query' field of xmlUriPtr, instead of the new
'query_raw'
Also, we forgot to report an OOM error.
* tests/viruritest.c (mymain): Add tests based on just-deleted
qparamtest.
(testURIParse): Allow difference in input and expected output.
* src/util/viruri.c (virURIFormat): Add missing error. Use

The oVirt developers have stated that the real reasons they want
to have qemu reuse existing volumes when creating a snapshot are:
1. the management framework is set up so that creation has to be
done from a central node for proper resource tracking, and having
libvirt and/or qemu create things violates the framework, and
2. qemu defaults to creating snapshots with an absolute path to
the backing file, but oVirt wants to manage a backing chain that
uses just relative names, to allow for easier migration of a chain
across storage locations.
When 0.9.10 added VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_REUSE_EXT (commit
4e9953a4), it only addressed point 1, but libvirt was still using
O_TRUNC which violates point 2. Meanwhile, the new qemu
'transaction' monitor command includes a new optional mode argument
that will force qemu to reuse the metadata of the file it just
opened (with the burden on the caller to have valid metadata there
in the first place). So, this tweaks the meaning of the flag to
cover both points as intended for use by oVirt. It is not strictly
backward-compatible to 0.9.10 behavior, but it can be argued that
the O_TRUNC of 0.9.10 was a bug.
Note that this flag is all-or-nothing, and only selects between
'existing' and the default 'absolute-paths'. A more flexible
approach that would allow per-disk selections, as well as adding
support for the 'no-backing-file' mode, would be possible by
extending the <domainsnapshot> xml to have a per-disk mode, but
until we have a management application expressing a need for that
additional complexity, it is not worth doing.

QEmu 1.1 is adding a 'transaction' command to the JSON monitor.
Each element of a transaction corresponds to a top-level command,
with the additional guarantee that the transaction flushes all
pending I/O, then guarantees that all actions will be successful
as a group or that failure will roll back the state to what it
was before the monitor command. The difference between a
top-level command:
{ "execute": "blockdev-snapshot-sync", "arguments":
{ "device": "virtio0", ... } }
and a transaction:
{ "execute": "transaction", "arguments":
{ "actions": [
{ "type": "blockdev-snapshot-sync", "data":
{ "device": "virtio0", ... } } ] } }
is just a couple of changed key names and nesting the shorter
command inside a JSON array to the longer command. This patch
just adds the framework; the next patch will actually use a
transaction.

Taking an external snapshot of just one disk is atomic, without having
to pause and resume the VM. This also paves the way for later patches
to interact with the new qemu 'transaction' monitor command.
The various scenarios when requesting atomic are:
online, 1 disk, old qemu - safe, allowed by this patch
online, more than 1 disk, old qemu - failure, this patch
offline snapshot - safe, once a future patch implements offline disk snapshot
online, 1 or more disks, new qemu - safe, once future patch uses transaction
Taking an online system checkpoint snapshot is atomic, since it is
done via a single 'savevm' monitor command. Taking an offline system
checkpoint snapshot is atomic, thanks to the previous patch.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Support
new flag for single-disk setups.
(qemuDomainSnapshotDiskPrepare): Check for atomic here.
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateDiskActive): Skip pausing the VM when

Offline internal snapshots can be rolled back with just a little

* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c (qemuDomainSnapshotForEachQcow2): Move
guts...
(qemuDomainSnapshotForEachQcow2Raw): ...to new helper, to allow
rollbacks.
Right now, it is appallingly easy to cause qemu disk snapshots
to alter a domain then fail; for example, by requesting a two-disk
snapshot where the second disk name resides on read-only storage.
In this failure scenario, libvirt reports failure, but modifies
the live domain XML in-place to record that the first disk snapshot
was taken; and places a difficult burden on the management app
to grab the XML and reparse it to see which disks, if any, were
altered by the partial snapshot.
This patch adds a new flag where implementations can request that
the hypervisor make snapshots atomically; either no changes to
XML occur, or all disks were altered as a group. If you request
the flag, you either get outright failure up front, or you take
advantage of hypervisor abilities to make an atomic snapshot. Of
course, drivers should prefer the atomic means even without the
flag explicitly requested.
There's no way to make snapshots 100% bulletproof - even if the
hypervisor does it perfectly atomic, we could run out of memory
during the followup tasks of updating our in-memory XML, and report
a failure. However, these sorts of catastrophic failures are rare
and unlikely, and it is still nicer to know that either all
snapshots happened or none of them, as that is an easier state to
recover from.
