Meson defines a warning_level option which has the following behaviour
with C code
0: no warning flags
1: -Wall
2: -Wall -Wextra
3: -Wall -Wextra -Wpedantic
Currently we add our extra warning flags unconditionally if the compiler
supports them, regardless of the meson warning_level setting. This has
effectively nullified the warning_level setting in meson, and also
results in meson printing these messages:
meson.build:498: WARNING: Consider using the built-in warning_level option instead of using "-Wall".
meson.build:498: WARNING: Consider using the built-in warning_level option instead of using "-Wextra".
Semantically we can think of our huge list of flags as being an "extra"
set of warnings, and thus we ought to only add them when meson would
itself use -Wextra. aka warning_level == 2 or 3.
In practice libvirt code can't be built with -Wpedantic so we can ignore
meson warning_level 3, and only add our flags when warning_level==2.
In doing this change, we no longer have to check -Wall/-Wextra ourselves
as we can assume meson already set them.
-W is an alias of -Wextra so it is removed too.

correctly, the check for valid a LIBXL_API_VERSION at the beginning of

API changes introduced in Xen 4.7 and 4.8. This was fixed with
xen-project/xen@c3999835df, which for libvirt means in practice either

GLibC has a really complicated way of dealing with the 'stat' function
historically, which means our mocks in turn have to look at four
different possible functions to replace, stat, stat64, __xstat,
__xstat64.
In Fedora 33 and earlier:
- libvirt.so links to __xstat64
- libc.so library exports stat, stat64, __xstat, __xstat64
- sys/stat.h header exposes stat and __xstat
In Fedora 34 rawhide:
- libvirt.so links to stat64
- libc.so library exports stat, stat64, __xstat, __xstat64
- sys/stat.h header exposes stat
Historically we only looked at the exported symbols from libc.so to
decide which to mock.
In F34 though we must not consider __xstat / __xstat64 though because
they only existance for binary compatibility. Newly built binaries
won't reference them.
Thus we must introduce a header file check into our logic for deciding
which symbol to mock. We must ignore the __xstat / __xstat64 symbols
if they don't appear in the sys/stat.h header, even if they appear

This flag was originally created to indicate that either 1) the build

was too old to have macvtap support. Since there was already a switch
there, the ability to also disable it when 3) the kernel supports
macvtap but the user doesn't want it, was added in. I don't think that
(3) was ever an intentional goal, just something that grew naturally
out of having the flag there in the first place (unless possibly the
original author wanted a way to quickly disable their new code in case
it caused regressions elsewhere).
Now that the check for (2) has been removed, WITH_MACVTAP is just
checking (1) and (3), but (3) is pointless (because the extra code in
libvirt itself is miniscule, and the only external library needed for
it is libnl, which is also required for other unrelated features (and
itself has no subordinate dependencies and takes up < 1MB on

support was added, the IFLA_* stuff was new (introduced in kernel

extra check was necessary, because libvirt was being built on Linux
distros that didn't yet have IFLA_* (e.g. older RHEL6, all
RHEL5). It's been in the kernel for a *very* long time now, so all
supported versions of all Linux platforms libvirt builds on have it.
Note that the above paragraph implies that the conditional compilation

There was one attempt a year ago done by me to drop HAL [1] but it was
never resolved. There was another time when Dan suggested to drop HAL
driver [2] but it was decided to keep it around in case device
assignment will be implemented for FreeBSD and the fact that
virt-manager uses node device driver [3].
I checked git history and code and it doesn't look like bhyve supports
device assignment so from that POV it should not block removing HAL.
The argument about virt-manager is not strong as well because libvirt
installed from FreeBSD packages doesn't have HAL support so it will not
affect these users as well [4].
The only users affected by this change would be the ones compiling
libvirt from GIT on FreeBSD.
I looked into alternatives and there is libudev-devd package on FreeBSD
but unfortunately it doesn't work as it doesn't list any devices when
used with libvirt. It provides libudev APIs using devd.
I also looked into devd directly and it provides some APIs but there are
no APIs for device monitoring and events so that would have to be
somehow done by libvirt.
Main motivation for dropping HAL support is to replace libdbus with GLib
dbus implementation and it cannot be done with HAL driver present in
libvirt because HAL APIs heavily depends on symbols provided by libdbus.

This function was introduced in the 2.0.6 release which happened
in December 2010. I think it is safe to assume that all libnuma
we deal with have the function.

We are currently adding -lutil and -lkvm to the linker using the
add_project_link_arguments method. On FreeBSD 11.4, this results in
build errors because the args appear too early in the command line.
We need to pass the libraries as dependencies so that they get placed
at the same point in the linker args as other dependencies.

A wireshark plugin must declare what major and minor version it
was built with as these are checked when wireshark loads plugins.
On the top of that, we use major + minor + micro to adapt to
changed API between releases. So far, we were getting these
version numbers from wireshark/config.h.
And while most distributions install wireshark/config.h file some
don't. On distros shipping it it's hack^Wsaved during built by
packaging system and installed later. But some distros are not
doing that. At least not for new enough wireshark because as of
wireshark's commit v2.9.0~1273 the ws_version.h is installed
which contains the version macros we need and is installed by
wireshark itself.
But of course, some distros which have new enough wireshark
packaged do not ship ws_version.h and stick to the hack. That is
why we can't simply bump the minimal version and switch to the
new header file. We need a configure check and adopt our code to
deal with both ways. At least for the time being.

If someone runs `meson setup --buildtype plain` meson ignores
warning_level=2 that is in our meson.build file. The implication is
that Meson will not automatically add -Wall which enables -Wformat.
This breaks building libvirt from git with the buildtype set to plain.
There is an issue reported [1] to not ignore warning_level silently
and the change to ignore it was done by upstream commit [2].
This change makes Meson print warnings about using warning_level which
as described above doesn't work for all build types.

Now that we have moved to Meson, we are no longer required to
use a specific name for this file, and since the rest of our
documentation is in reStructuredText format and uses a matching
file extension, we can give the AUTHORS file the same treatment.

Currently, we are mixing: #if HAVE_BLAH with #if WITH_BLAH.
Things got way better with Pavel's work on meson, but apparently,
mixing these two lead to confusing and easy to miss bugs (see
31fb929eca for instance). While we were forced to use HAVE_
prefix with autotools, we are free to chose our own prefix with
meson and since WITH_ prefix appears to be more popular let's use
it everywhere.

In meson.build, we check for presence of unshare() function
explicitly (even though there is the function usability check a
few hundred lines below), but never have any code depending on
HAVE_UNSHARE. The same applies to stdarg.h and sys/sysctl.h
header files - either we simply include them or guard their
include using different conditionals.

Add a configuration option for specifying location of the qemu modules
directory, defaulting to /usr/lib64/qemu. Then use this location to
check for changes in the directory, indicating that a qemu module has
changed and capabilities need to be reprobed.

This patch takes care of just the obvious cases: there are
many more situations where the data we pass to configure_file()
could likely be obtained in a more effective way, but we can
address the low-hanging fruits as a first approximation.
