Commit 34e8f63a32 introduced support for catching errors from
libvirt iohelper. However, at those times there wasn't such fancy
API as virCommandDoAsyncIO(), so everything has to be implemented
on our own. But since we do have the API now, we can use it and
drop our implementation then.
Currently, if we want to feed stdin, or catch stdout or stderr of a
virCommand we have to use virCommandRun(). When using virCommandRunAsync()
we have to register FD handles by hand. This may lead to code duplication.
Hence, introduce an internal API, which does this automatically within
virCommandRunAsync(). The intended usage looks like this:
virCommandPtr cmd = virCommandNew*(...);
char *buf = NULL;
...
virCommandSetOutputBuffer(cmd, &buf);
virCommandDoAsyncIO(cmd);
if (virCommandRunAsync(cmd, NULL) < 0)
goto cleanup;
...
if (virCommandWait(cmd, NULL) < 0)
goto cleanup;
/* @buf now contains @cmd's stdout */
VIR_DEBUG("STDOUT: %s", NULLSTR(buf));
...
cleanup:
VIR_FREE(buf);
virCommandFree(cmd);
Note, that both stdout and stderr buffers may change until virCommandWait()
returns.
QEMU is fully capable of handling VDI images and we just refuse to
work with them. As qemu-img knows and supports this, there should be
no problem with this addition.
This is of course, just basic functionality, without searching for any
backing files, etc.
Some files have the magic shifted to some offset other than 0, so we
have to support that. I also cleaned up some lines to be more
readable and added missing magic for iso file format.
Commit 6094ad7b (0.9.3 release) promoted several functions from
internal to public, but forgot to fix the documentation generator
to provide details about those functions.
For an example of what this fixes, look at:
file:///path/to/libvirt/docs/html/libvirt-libvirt.html#virEventAddHandle
before and after the patch.
* docs/apibuild.py (ignored_functions): Don't ignore functions
that were turned into official API.
* src/util/virevent.c: Fix comments to pass through parser.
Way back when I started making changes for Coverity messages my first set
were to a bunch of CHECKED_RETURN errors. In particular virAsprintf() had
a few callers that Coverity noted didn't check their return (although some
did check if the buffer being printed to was NULL or not).
It was suggested at the time as a further patch an ATTRIBUTE_RETURN_CHECK
should be added to virAsprintf(), see:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-January/msg00120.html
This patch does that and fixes a few more instances not found by Coverity
that failed the check.
Setting the log output prefix to 0 is not supported and in fact results
in the following message:
warning : virLogParseOutputs:1021 : Ignoring invalid log output setting.
This patch changes the name of the @sep argument to @terminator and
clarifies it's usage. This patch also explicitly documents that
whitespace can't be used as @terminator as it is skipped multiple times
in the implementation.
When building with static analysis enabled, we turn on attribute
nonnull checking. However, this caused the build to fail with:
../../src/util/virobject.c: In function 'virObjectOnceInit':
../../src/util/virobject.c:55:40: error: null argument where non-null required (argument 1) [-Werror=nonnull]
Creation of the virObject class is the one instance where the
parent class is allowed to be NULL. Making things conditional
will let us keep static analysis checking for all other .c file
callers, without breaking the build on this one exception.
* src/util/virobject.c: Define witness.
* src/util/virobject.h (virClassNew): Use it to force most callers
to pass non-null parameter.
The Coverity static analyzer was generating many false positives for the
unary operation inside the VIR_FREE() definition as it was trying to evaluate
the else portion of the "?:" even though the if portion was (1).

Currently, whenever somebody calls saferead() on nonblocking FD
(safewrite() is totally interchangeable for purpose of this message)
he might get wrong return value. For instance, in the first iteration
some data is read. The number of bytes read is stored into local
variable 'nread'. However, in next iterations we can get -1 from
read() with errno == EAGAIN, in which case the -1 is returned despite
fact some data has already been read. So the caller gets confused.
Bare read() should be used for nonblocking FD.
Working with virTypedParameters in clients written in C is ugly and
requires all clients to duplicate the same code. This set of APIs makes
this code for manipulating with virTypedParameters integral part of
libvirt so that all clients may benefit from it.
A build on FreeBSD failed with:
util/virportallocator.c:108: error: storage size of 'addr' isn't known
util/virportallocator.c:123: error: 'INADDR_ANY' undeclared (first use in this function)
It turns out that while POSIX allows sockaddr_in to leak in through
<arpa/inet.h> (the way Linux does it), it is not mandatory, and
conforming applications are required to get it through <netinet/in.h>.
* src/util/virportallocator.c: Include header for struct
sockaddr_in.
* tests/virportallocatortest.c: Likewise.
The QEMU driver default max port is 65535, but it then increments
this by 1 to 65536. This maps to 0 in an unsigned short :-( This
was apparently done so that for() loops could use "< max" instead
of "<= max". Remove this insanity and just make the loop do the
right thing.
A great many virObject instances require a mutex, so introduce
a convenient class for this which provides a mutex. This avoids
repeating the tedious init/destroy code

Currently all classes must directly inherit from virObject.
This allows for arbitrarily deep hierarchy. There's not much
to this aside from chaining up the 'dispose' handlers from
each class & providing APIs to check types.

Make cpuset local to the while loop and free it once done with it each
time through the loop. Add a sa_assert() to virBitmapParse() to keep Coverity
from believing there could be a negative return and possible resource leak.
Commit c308a9ae was incomplete; it resolved the configure failure,
but not a later build failure.
* src/util/virnetdevbridge.c: Include pre-req header.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Prefer standard in.h over
non-standard ip6.h.
There's no need to do lots of readlink() calls to canonicalize
a name if we're only going to use stat() on it, since stat()
already chases symlinks.
* src/util/virutil.c (virGetDeviceID): Let stat() do the symlink
chasing.
Pass stub driver name directly to pciDettachDevice and pciReAttachDevice to fit
for different libvirt drivers. For example, qemu driver prefers pci-stub, but
Xen prefers pciback.

"virGetDeviceID" could be used across the sources, but it doesn't
relate with this series, and could be done later.
* src/util/virutil.h: (Declare virGetDeviceID, and
vir{Get,Set}DeviceUnprivSGIO)
* src/util/virutil.c: (Implement virGetDeviceID and
vir{Get,Set}DeviceUnprivSGIO)
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export private symbols of upper helpers
This is an adjustment to the fix for
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=889319
to account for two bonehead mistakes I made.
commit ac2797cf2a attempted to fix a
problem with netlink in newer kernels requiring an extra attribute
with a filter flag set in order to receive an IFLA_VFINFO_LIST from
netlink. Unfortunately, the #ifdef that protected against compiling it
in on systems without the new flag went a bit too far, assuring that
the new code would *never* be compiled, and even if it had, the code
was incorrect.
The first problem was that, while some IFLA_* enum values are also
their existence at compile time, IFLA_EXT_MASK *isn't* #defined, so
checking to see if it's #defined is not a valid method of determining
whether or not to add the attribute. Fortunately, the flag that is
being set (RTEXT_FILTER_VF) *is* #defined, and it is never present if
IFLA_EXT_MASK isn't, so it's sufficient to just check for that flag.
And to top it off, due to the code not actually compiling when I
thought it did, I didn't realize that I'd been given the wrong arglist
to nla_put() - you can't just send a const value to nla_put, you have
to send it a pointer to memory containing what you want to add to the
message, along with the length of that memory.
This time I've actually sent the patch over to the other machine
that's experiencing the problem, applied it to the branch being used
(0.10.2) and verified that it works properly, i.e. it does fix the
problem it's supposed to fix. :-/
