virBufferContentAndReset (intentionally) returns NULL for a buffer
with no content, but it is feasible to invoke a command with an
explicit empty string.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandAddEnvBuffer): Reject empty string.
(virCommandAddArgBuffer): Allow explicit empty argument.
* tests/commandtest.c (test9): Test it.
* tests/commanddata/test9.log: Adjust.
The VIR_TEST_DEBUG and VIR_TEST_VERBOSE env vars did not work
because we replaced 'environ' with 'newenv'. Simply calling
virTestGetDebug/Verbose() before replacing the 'environ' ensures
we have processed the env variables.
The gnutls initialization code opens /dev/urandom and keeps that
FD around for later use. We have code which kills off FDs 3-5
to avoid interfereing with our test case. Move the virInitialize
call before this point, so it kills off the gnutls /dev/urandom
FD which is irrelevant for testing purposes
* tests/commandtest.c: Fix test debugging & make it robust against
opened FDs
With gcc 4.5.1:
util/virpidfile.c: In function 'virPidFileAcquirePath':
util/virpidfile.c:308:66: error: nested extern declaration of '_gl_verify_function2' [-Wnested-externs]
Then in tests/commandtest.c, the new virPidFile APIs need to be used.
* src/util/virpidfile.c (virPidFileAcquirePath): Move verify to
top level.
* tests/commandtest.c: Use new pid APIs.
Although most functions in libvirt return 0 on success and < 0 on
failure, there are a few functions lingering around that return errno
(a positive value) on failure, and sometimes code calling those
functions incorrectly assumes the <0 standard. I noticed one of these
the other day when auditing networkStartDhcpDaemon after Guido Gunther
found a place where success was improperly returned on failure (that
patch has been acked and is pending a push). The problem was that it
expected the return value from virFileReadPid to be < 0 on failure,
but it was actually positive (it was also neglected to set the return
code in this case, similar to the bug found by Guido).
This all led to the fact that *all* of the virFile*Pid functions in
util.c are returning errno on failure. This patch remedies that
problem by changing them all to return -errno on failure, and makes
any necessary changes to callers of the functions. (In the meantime, I
also properly set the return code on failure of virFileReadPid in
networkStartDhcpDaemon).
Running ./autobuild.sh failed when gcov is installed, because
commandtest ended up crashing during gcov's getenv() call after
exit() had already started. I traced this nasty bug back to
a scoping issue present since the test introduction.
* tests/commandtest.c (mymain): Move newenv...
(newenv): ...to a scope that is still useful during exit().
A few of the tests were missing basic sanity checks, while most
of them were doing copy-and-paste initialization (in fact, some
of them pasted the argc > 1 check more than once!). It's much
nicer to do things in one common place, and minimizes the size of
the next patch that fixes getcwd usage.
* tests/testutils.h (EXIT_AM_HARDFAIL): New define.
(progname, abs_srcdir): Define for all tests.
(VIRT_TEST_MAIN): Change callback signature.

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.
When executed from cron, commandtest would fail to correctly
identify daemon processes. Set session ID and process group
IDs at startup to ensure we have a consistent environment to
run in.
* tests/commandtest.c: Call setsid() and setpgid()
* src/fdstream.c (virFDStreamOpenFile, virFDStreamCreateFile):
Use VIR_FORCE_CLOSE instead of close.
* tests/commandtest.c (mymain): Likewise.
* tools/virsh.c (editFile): Use virCommand instead of system.
* src/util/util.c (__virExec): Special case preservation of std
file descriptors to child.
Guarantee that outbuf/errbuf are allocated on success, even if to the
empty string. Caller always has to free the result, and empty output
check requires checking if *outbuf=='\0'. Makes the API easier to use
safely. Failure is best effort allocation (some paths, like
out-of-memory, cannot allocate a buffer, but most do), so caller must
free buffer on failure.
* docs/internals/command.html.in: Update documentation.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandSetOutputBuffer)
(virCommandSetErrorBuffer, virCommandProcessIO) Guarantee empty
string on no output.
* tests/commandtest.c (test17): New test.
This introduces a new set of APIs in src/util/command.h
to use for invoking commands. This is intended to replace
all current usage of virRun and virExec variants, with a
more flexible and less error prone API.
* src/util/command.c: New file.
* src/util/command.h: New header.
* src/Makefile.am (UTIL_SOURCES): Build it.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export symbols internally.
* tests/commandtest.c: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (check_PROGRAMS): Run it.
* tests/commandhelper.c: Auxiliary program.
* tests/commanddata/test2.log - test15.log: New expected outputs.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add virCommandFree.
(msg_gen_function): Add virCommandError.
* po/POTFILES.in: New translation.
* .x-sc_avoid_write: Add exemption.
* tests/.gitignore: Ignore new built file.
