When using the fine grained access control mechanism for APIs, when a
client connects to libvirtd, the latter will fetch the uid, gid, selinux
info of the remote client on the UNIX domain socket. This is then used
as the identity when checking ACLs.
With the new split daemons things are a bit more complicated. The user
can connect to virtproxyd, which in turn connects to virtqemud. When
virtqemud requests the identity over the UNIX domain socket, it will
get the identity that virtproxyd is running as, not the identity of
the real end user/application.
virproxyd knows what the real identity is, and needs to be able to
forward this information to virtqemud. The virConnectSetIdentity API
provides a mechanism for doing this. Obviously virtqemud should not
accept such identity overrides from any client, it must only honour it
from a trusted client, aka one running as the same uid/gid as itself.
The typed parameters exposed in the API are the same as those currently
supported by the internal virIdentity class, with a few small name
changes.

Introduce a bunch of new public APIs related to backup checkpoints.
Checkpoints are modeled heavily after virDomainSnapshotPtr (both
represent a point in time of the guest), although a snapshot exists
with the intent of rolling back to that state, while a checkpoint
exists to make it possible to create an incremental backup at a later
time. We may have a future hypervisor that can completely manage
checkpoints without libvirt metadata, but the first two planned
hypervisors (qemu and test) both always use libvirt for tracking
metadata relations between checkpoints, so for now, I've deferred
the counterpart of virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata for a separate
API addition at a later date if there is ever a need for it.
Note that until we allow snapshots and checkpoints to exist
simultaneously on the same domain (although the actual prevention of
this will be in a separate patch for the sake of an easier revert down
the road), that it is not possible to branch out to create more than
one checkpoint child to a given parent, although it may become
possible later when we revert to a snapshot that coincides with a
checkpoint. This also means that for now, the decision of which
checkpoint becomes the parent of a newly created one is the only
checkpoint with no child (so while there are APIs for dealing with a
current snapshot, we do not need those for checkpoints). We may end
up exposing a notion of a current checkpoint later, but it's easier to
add stuff when proven needed than to blindly support it now and wish
we hadn't exposed it.
The following map shows the API relations to snapshots, with new APIs
on the right:
Operate on a domain object to create/redefine a child:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML virDomainCheckpointCreateXML
Operate on a child object for lifetime management:
virDomainSnapshotDelete virDomainCheckpointDelete
virDomainSnapshotFree virDomainCheckpointFree
virDomainSnapshotRef virDomainCheckpointRef
Operate on a child object to learn more about it:
virDomainSnapshotGetXMLDesc virDomainCheckpointGetXMLDesc
virDomainSnapshotGetConnect virDomainCheckpointGetConnect
virDomainSnapshotGetDomain virDomainCheckpointGetDomain
virDomainSnapshotGetName virDomainCheckpiontGetName
virDomainSnapshotGetParent virDomainCheckpiontGetParent
virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata (deferred for later)
virDomainSnapshotIsCurrent (no counterpart, see note above)
Operate on a domain object to list all children:
virDomainSnapshotNum (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListNames racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllSnapshots virDomainListAllCheckpoints
Operate on a child object to list descendents:
virDomainSnapshotNumChildren (no counterparts, these are the old
virDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames racy interfaces)
virDomainSnapshotListAllChildren virDomainCheckpointListAllChildren

virDomainSnapshotCurrent (no counterpart, see note above)

This function will essentially be a wrapper to virStorageVolInfo in order
to provide a mechanism to have the "physical" size of the volume returned
instead of the "allocation" size. This will provide similar capabilities to

domain storage volume.
NB: Since we're reusing the _virStorageVolInfo and not creating a new
_virStorageVolInfoFlags structure, we'll need to generate the rpc APIs
remoteStorageVolGetInfoFlags and remoteDispatchStorageVolGetInfoFlags
(although both were originally created from gendispatch.pl and then
just copied into daemon/remote.c and src/remote/remote_driver.c).
The new API will allow the usage of a VIR_STORAGE_VOL_GET_PHYSICAL flag
and will make the decision to return the physical or allocation value
into the allocation field.
In order to get that physical value, virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD
adds logic to fill in physical value matching logic in qemuStorageLimitsRefresh
used by virDomainBlockInfo when the domain is inactive.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away it has been decided

This commit (finally) adds the virDomainBlockCopy API, with the
intent that it will provide more power to the existing 'virsh
blockcopy' command.
'virsh blockcopy' was first added in Apr 2012 (v0.9.12), which
corresponds to the upstream qemu 1.2 timeframe. It was done as
a hack on top of the existing virDomainBlockRebase() API call,
for two reasons: 1) it was targetting a feature that landed first
in downstream RHEL qemu, but had not stabilized in upstream qemu
at the time (and indeed, 'drive-mirror' only landed upstream in
qemu 1.3 with slight differences to the first RHEL attempt,
and later gained further parameters like granularity and buf-size
that are also worth exposing), and 2) extending an existing API
allowed it to be backported without worrying about bumping .so
versions. A virDomainBlockCopy() API was proposed at that time
[1], but we decided not to accept it into libvirt until after
upstream qemu stabilized, and it ended up getting scrapped.
Whether or not RHEL should have attempted adding a new feature
without getting it upstream first is a debate that can be held
another day; but enough time has now elapsed that we are ready to
do the interface cleanly.
[1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-April/msg00768.html
Delaying the creation of a clean API until now has also had a
benefit: we've only recently learned of a few shortcomings in the
original design: 1) it is unable to target a network destination
(such as a gluster volume) because it hard-coded the assumption
that the destination is a local file name. Because of all the
refactoring we've done to add virStorageSourcePtr, we are in a
better position to declare an API that parses XML describing a
host storage source as the copy destination, which was not
possible had we implemented virDomainBlockCopy as it had been
originally envisioned (although a network target will have to wait
until a later libvirt release compared to the API addition to
actually be implemented). 2) the design of using MiB/sec as the
bandwidth throttle is rather coarse; qemu is actually tuned to
bytes/second, and libvirt is preventing access to that level of
detail. A later patch will add flags to existing block job API
that can request bytes/second instead of back-compat MiB/s, but as
this is a new API, we can get it right to begin with.
At least I had the foresight to create 'virsh blockcopy' as a
separate command at the UI level (commit 1f06c00) rather than
leaking the underlying API overload of virDomainBlockRebase onto
shell users.
A further note on the bandwidth option: virTypedParameters
intentionally lacks unsigned long (since variable-width
interaction between mixed 32- vs. 64-bit client/server setups is
nasty), but we have to deal with the fact that we are interacting
with existing older code that mistakenly chose unsigned long
bandwidth at a point before we decided to prohibit it in all new
API. The typed parameter is therefore unsigned long long, but
the implementation (in a later patch) will have to do overflow
detection on 32-bit platforms, as well as capping the value to
match the LLONG_MAX>>20 cap of the existing MiB/s interfaces.

The motivation for this API is that management layers that use libvirt
usually poll for statistics using various split up APIs we currently
provide. To get all the necessary stuff, the app needs to issue a lot of
calls and aggregate the results.
The APIs I'm introducing here:
1) Returns data in a format that we can expand in the future and is
(pseudo) hierarchical. The data is returned as typed parameters where
the fields are constructed as dot-separated strings containing names and
other stuff in a list of typed params.
2) Stats for multiple (all) domains can be queried at once and are
returned in one call. This will decrease the overhead necessary to issue
multiple calls per domain multiplied by the count of domains.
3) Selectable (bit mask) fields in the returned format. This will allow
to retrieve only specific stats according to the app's need.
The stats groups will be enabled using a bit field @stats passed as the
function argument. A few sample stats groups that this API will support:
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_CPU
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_BLOCK
VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_INTERFACE
(Note that this is only an example, the initial implementation supports
only VIR_DOMAIN_STATS_STATE while others will be added later.)
the returned typed params will use the following scheme
state.state = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING
state.reason = VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_BOOTED (the actual values according to
the enum)
cpu.count = 8
cpu.0.state = running
cpu.0.time = 1234
