Currently, the hook function in virFileOperation is extremely limited:
it must be async-signal-safe, and cannot modify any memory in the
parent process. It is much handier to return a valid fd and operate
on it in the parent than to deal with hook restrictions.
* src/util/util.h (VIR_FILE_OP_RETURN_FD): New flag.
* src/util/util.c (virFileOperationNoFork, virFileOperation):
Honor new flag.
This allows direct saves (no compression, no root-squash NFS) to use
the more efficient fd: migration, which in turn avoids a race where
qemu exec: migration can sometimes fail because qemu does a generic
waitpid() that conflicts with the pclose() used by exec:. Further
patches will solve compression and root-squash NFS.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSaveFlag): Use new function
when there is no compression.
Latent bug introduced in commit 2d6a581960 (Aug 2009), but not exposed
until commit 1859939a (Jan 2011). Basically, when virExec creates a
pipe, it always marks libvirt's side as cloexec. If libvirt then
wants to hand that pipe to another child process, things work great if
the fd is dup2()'d onto stdin or stdout (as with stdin: or exec:
migration), but if the pipe is instead used as-is (such as with fd:
migration) then qemu sees EBADF because the fd was closed at exec().
This is a minimal fix for the problem at hand; it is slightly racy,
but no more racy than the rest of libvirt fd handling, including the
case of uncompressed save images. A more invasive fix, but ultimately
safer at avoiding leaking unintended fds, would be to _always and
atomically_ open all fds as cloexec in libvirt (thanks to primitives
like open(O_CLOEXEC), pipe2(), accept4(), ...), then teach virExec to
clear that bit for all fds explicitly marked to be handed to the child
only after forking.

flag.
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c (testCompareXMLToArgvFiles): Tweak test.

Diego reported a bug where virsh tries to initialize a readline
history directory during 'make check' run as root, but fails
because /root was read-only.
It turns out that I could reproduce this as non-root, by using:
mv ~/.virsh{,.bak}
chmod a-w ~
make check -C tests TESTS=int-overflow
chmod u+w ~
mv ~/.virsh{.bak,}

Otherwise, if something like doStopVcpus fails after the first

The Open Nebula driver has been unmaintained since it was first
introduced. The only commits have been for tree-wide cleanups.
It also has a major design flaw, in that it only knows about guests
that it has created itself, which makes it of very limited use.
Discussions wrt evolution of the VMWare ESX driver, concluded that
it should limit itself to single-node ESX operation and not try to
manage the multi-node architecture of VirtualCenter. Open Nebula
is a cluster like Virtual Center, not a single node system, so
the same reasoning applies.
The DeltaCloud project includes an Open Nebula driver and is a much
better fit architecturally, since it is explicitly targetting the
distributed multihost cluster scenario.
Thus this patch deletes the libvirt Open Nebula driver with the
recommendation that people use DeltaCloud for managing it instead.

Some things to note in this patch:
- we do extend libvirt scope beyond purely managing domains, there is
already a number of blocks which are here as helpr functions to
manage the resources on the host.
- we are expanding in the direction of libvirt being sufficient to do
most of the management on the Host (but within the limits of the need
for virtualization, e.g. managing users on the host is out of scope)
- we don't require anymore APIs to be supported by multiple
hypervisors to get in, it's already the case in practice, but we
should still make sure the semantic of those APIs are clear. We
added quite a bit for QEmu, but for example I saw on IRC that VBox
could emulate a network unplug/replug on a domain interface, and
that would be a good addition even if a priori no other hypervisor
supports it.
- Make clear that all libvirt APIs are available remotely, which is
key to use libvirt for building management tools.
- link the goal page from the project main page
As for libvirt project directions, I think it just reflects the natural
evolution in the last couple of years. We are less hypervisor agnostic
and extending in the Host management. Clearly there is interest in
making sure libvirt is complete in term of features for the hypervisors
supported, especially the ones like KVM or LXC which don't really have
integrated management library.

Commit f44bfb7 was supposed to make sure no additional libvirt API (esp.
*Free) is called before remoteDispatchConnError() is called on error.
However, the patch missed two instances.
Sometimes, an asynchronous helper is started (such as a compressor
or iohelper program), but a later error means that we want to
abort that child. Make this easier.
Note that since daemons and virCommandRunAsync can't mix, the only
time virCommandFree can reap a process is if someone did
virCommandRunAsync for a non-daemon and didn't stash the pid.
* src/util/command.h (virCommandAbort): New prototype.
* src/util/command.c (_virCommand): Add new field.
(virCommandRunAsync, virCommandWait): Track whether pid was used.
(virCommandFree): Reap child if caller did not request pid.
(virCommandAbort): New function.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (command.h): Export it.
* tests/commandtest.c (test19): New test.
It doesn't make sense to run a daemon without synchronously
waiting for the child process to reply whether the daemon has
been kicked off and pidfile written yet.
* src/util/command.c (VIR_EXEC_RUN_SYNC): New constant.
(virCommandRun): Set temporary flag.
(virCommandRunAsync): Use it to prevent async runs of intermediate
child when spawning asynchronous daemon grandchild.
Child processes don't always reach _exit(); if they die from a
signal, then any messages should still be accurate. Most users
either expect a 0 status (thankfully, if status==0, then
WIFEXITED(status) is true and WEXITSTATUS(status)==0 for all
known platforms) or were filtering on WIFEXITED before printing
a status, but a few were missing this check. Additionally,
nwfilter_ebiptables_driver was making an assumption that works
on Linux (where WEXITSTATUS shifts and WTERMSIG just masks)
but fails on other platforms (where WEXITSTATUS just masks and
WTERMSIG shifts).
* src/util/command.h (virCommandTranslateStatus): New helper.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (command.h): Export it.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandTranslateStatus): New function.

This simplifies several callers that were repeating checks already
guaranteed by util.c, and makes other callers more robust to now
reject directories. remote_driver.c was over-strict - access(,R_OK)

access(,X_OK) (besides, it's unusual to see a file with x but not
r permissions, whether script or binary).

Bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=689374 reported libvirtd
crash during error dispatch.
The reason is that libvirtd uses remoteDispatchConnError() with non-NULL
conn parameter which means that virConnGetLastError() is used instead of
its thread safe replacement virGetLastError().
So when several libvirtd threads are reporting errors at the same time,
the errors can get mixed or corrupted or in case of bad luck libvirtd
itself crashes.
Since Daniel B. is going to rewrite this code from scratch on top of his
RPC infrastructure, I tried to come up with a minimal fix. Thus,
remoteDispatchConnError() now just ignores its conn argument and always
calls virGetLastError(). However, several callers had to be touched as
well, since no libvirt API is allowed to be called before dispatching
the error. Doing so would reset the error and we would have nothing to
dispatch. As a result of that, the code is not very nice but that
doesn't really make daemon/remote.c worse than it is now :-) And it will
all die soon, which is good.
The bug report also contains a reproducer in C which detects both mixed
up error messages and libvirtd crash. Before this patch, I was able to
crash libvirtd in about 20 seconds up to 3 minutes depending on number
of CPU cores (more is better) and luck.
Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. virsh attach-disk domain --source diskimage --target sdb --sourcetype file --driver qemu --subdriver qcow2
error: Failed to attach disk
error: operation failed: adding scsi-disk,bus=scsi0.0,scsi-id=1,drive=drive-scsi0-0-1,id=scsi0-0-1 device failed: Property 'scsi-disk.drive' can't find value 'drive-scsi0-0-1'
2. service libvirtd restart
Stopping libvirtd daemon: [ OK ]
Starting libvirtd daemon: [ OK ]
3. virsh attach-disk domain --source diskimage --target sdb --sourcetype file --driver qemu --subdriver raw
error: Failed to attach disk
error: operation failed: adding lsi,id=scsi0,bus=pci.0,addr=0x6 device failed: Duplicate ID 'scsi0' for device
The reason is that we create a new scsi controller but we do not update
/var/run/libvirt/qemu/domain.xml.

Problem:
"parser.head" is not NULL even if it's free'ed by "virJSONValueFree",
returning "parser.head" when "virJSONValueFromString" fails will cause
unexpected errors (libvirtd will crash sometimes), e.g.
In function "qemuMonitorJSONArbitraryCommand":
if (!(cmd = virJSONValueFromString(cmd_str)))
goto cleanup;
if (qemuMonitorJSONCommand(mon, cmd, &reply) < 0)
goto cleanup;
......
cleanup:
virJSONValueFree(cmd);
It will continues to send command to monitor even if "virJSONValueFromString"
is failed, and more worse, it trys to free "cmd" again.
Crash example:
{"error":{"class":"QMPBadInputObject","desc":"Expected 'execute' in QMP input","data":{"expected":"execute"}}}
{"error":{"class":"QMPBadInputObject","desc":"Expected 'execute' in QMP input","data":{"expected":"execute"}}}
error: server closed connection:
error: unable to connect to '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock', libvirtd may need to be started: Connection refused
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
This fix is to:
1) return NULL for failure of "virJSONValueFromString",
2) and it seems "virJSONValueFree" uses incorrect loop index for type
of "VIR_JSON_TYPE_OBJECT", fix it together.

This patch introduces PREASSOCIATE-RR during incoming VM migration on the

A corresponding enic driver patch to support PREASSOCIATE-RR for 8021qbh
will be posted for net-next-2.6 inclusion soon.
