b87cca75c3 build: relax the relaxed stack frame limit further
Pick 256k as the limit.

While -Wno-frame-larger-than would make more sense for usage
in our test suite, the -Wno version seems to have no effect
if -Wframe-larger-than was already specified.

Use an (un)reasonably large value instead.

Fixes the build with clang:
../../tests/cputest.c:964:1: error: stack frame size of 33176 bytes
in function 'mymain' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]
mymain(void)
^
1 error generated.

5657608b5e build: warn on a large frame by default
My commit e73889b631
split the -Wframe-larger-than warning setting into
two different variables - STRICT_FRAME_LIMIT_CFLAGS
for the library code and RELAXED_FRAME_LIMIT_CFLAGS
which was needed for tests.

Use the strict limit by default and specify the warning
flag twice for the parts that require a larger stack
frame, relying on the fact that the compiler will pick
up the latter value.

49c6fe6201 configure: Provide OpenRC scripts for sub-daemons
There is plenty of distributions that haven't switched to
systemd nor they force their users to (Gentoo, Alpine Linux to
name a few). With the daemon split merged their only option is to
still use the monolithic daemon which will go away eventually.
Provide init scripts for these distros too.

For now, I'm not introducing config files which would correspond
to the init files except for libvirtd and virtproxyd init scripts
where it might be desirable to tweak the command line of
corresponding daemons.

40780d1a4c docs: introduce rst2man as a mandatory tool for building docs
The rst2man tool is provided by python docutils, and as the name
suggests, it converts RST documents into man pages.

The intention is that our current POD docs will be converted to
RST format, allowing one more use of Perl to be eliminated from
libvirt.

The manual pages will now all be kept in the docs/manpages/ directory,
which enables us to include the man pages in the published website.
This is good for people searching for libvirt man pages online as it
makes it more likely google will send them to the libvirt.org instead
of some random third party man page site with outdated content.

75597f022a qemu: Warn verbosely if using old loader:nvram pairs
There are two ways for specifying loader:nvram pairs:

  1) --with-loader-nvram configure option
  2) nvram variable in qemu.conf

Since we have FW descriptors, using this old style is
discouraged, but not as strong as one would expect. Produce more
warnings:

  1) produce a warning if somebody tries the configure option
  2) produce a warning if somebody sets nvram variable and at
     least on FW descriptor was found

The reason for producing warning in case 1) is that package
maintainers, who set the configure option in the first place
should start moving towards FW descriptors and abandon the
configure option. After all, the warning is printed into config
output only in this case.

16121a88a7 util: convert virIdentity class to use GObject
Converting from virObject to GObject is reasonably straightforward,
as illustrated by this patch for virIdentity

In the header file

 - Remove

     typedef struct _virIdentity virIdentity

 - Add

     #define VIR_TYPE_IDENTITY virIdentity_get_type ()
     G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE (virIdentity, vir_identity, VIR, IDENTITY, GObject);

   Which provides the typedef we just removed, and class
   declaration boilerplate and various other constants/macros.

In the source file

 - Change 'virObject parent' to 'GObject parent' in the struct
 - Remove the virClass variable and its initializing call
 - Add

      G_DEFINE_TYPE(virIdentity, vir_identity, G_TYPE_OBJECT)

   which declares the instance & class constructor functions

 - Add an impl of the instance & class constructors
   wiring up the finalize method to point to our dispose impl

In all files

 - Replace VIR_AUTOUNREF(virIdentityPtr) with g_autoptr(virIdentity)

 - Replace virObjectRef/Unref with g_object_ref/unref. Note
   the latter functions do *NOT* accept a NULL object where as
   libvirt's do. If you replace g_object_unref with g_clear_object
   it is NULL safe, but also clears the pointer.

58e7c9bc05 build: probe for glib-2 library in configure
Prepare for linking with glib by probing for it at configure
time. Per supported platforms target, the min glib versions on
relevant distros are:

  RHEL-8: 2.56.1
  RHEL-7: 2.50.3
  Debian (Buster): 2.58.3
  Debian (Stretch): 2.50.3
  OpenBSD (Ports): 2.58.3
  FreeBSD (Ports): 2.56.3
  OpenSUSE Leap 15: 2.54.3
  SLE12-SP2: 2.48.2
  Ubuntu (Xenial): 2.48.0
  macOS (Homebrew): 2.56.0

This suggests that a minimum glib of 2.48 is a reasonable target.
This aligns with the minimum version required by qemu too.

We must disable the bad-function-cast warning as various GLib APIs
and macros will trigger this.

56c56b3bf8 Revert "configure: Colorize output"
The colors are not based on the semantics of the message but rather
on the message itself. This means that the default human-perceived
semantics (red = bad, green = good) don't really apply and spotting a
color does not mean anythting.

This is amplified by the sheer amount of output which configure produces
and the fact that some of the messages have negative semantics or
additional output.

In case of any problem the user will have to go through everything
anyways as spotting a red or yellow line has 0 information value.

Here are a few examples:

1) some 'no' messages are not a problem:

  checking minix/config.h presence... no

2) some 'no' messages are actually positive:

  checking for special C compiler options needed for large files... no

3) in some cases a 'yes' would mean that something is broken or needs
   workaround

  checking whether stat file-mode macros are broken... no
  checking whether wint_t is too small... no
  checking whether stdint.h predates C++11... no
  checking whether the inttypes.h PRIxNN macros are broken... no
  checking whether clang gives bogus warnings for -Wdouble-promotion... no
  checking whether gettimeofday clobbers localtime buffer... no

4) due to string match based colors extra text makes messages yellow

  checking for a traditional french locale... none
  checking for working nanosleep... no (mishandles large arguments)
  checking for library containing gethostbyname... none required
  checking whether mbrtowc handles incomplete characters... (cached) guessing yes

5) in some cases the yes/no is very context dependant

  checking whether pthread_rwlock_rdlock prefers a writer to a reader... no
  checking whether this build is done by a static analysis tool... no

6) detected paths to binaries and libs are yellow despite being present

  checking for objdump... objdump
  checking for atomic ops implementation... gcc

As of the reasons above I don't think the colorization of the configure
output helps users or developers to debug the build process and
thus is not worth the extra code or output clutter.

This reverts commit c98174ce08.

1a1c293ec6 Revert "virt-result.m4: Colourize summary printings"
The colorization based on the string itself makes little to no sense as
the semantic meaning of the color (red = bad, green = good) is not
extracted from the semantics of the message:

1) If there is some additional string a 'yes' is marked yellow:

configure:       driver_modules: yes (CFLAGS='' LIBS='-ldl')

2) In some cases a 'no' is actually good:

configure:                  hal: no

3) Few good/recommended configuration options are still yellow:

configure:                 QEMU: qemu:qemu

while using 'root:root' would still be yellow.

4) fields dumping config (e.g. the warning flags line) is a giant blob
  of colored text which makes little sense

configure:        Warning Flags:  -fno-common -W -Wabsolute-value
-Waddress -Waddress-of-packed-member -Waggressive-loop-optimizations
-Wall -Wattribute-warning -Wattributes -Wbad-function-cast

In addition if the idea is to switch to a more usable build system it
does not make sense to clutter the current one with more code.

4b3ab5d213 virt-result.m4: Colourize summary printings
The LIBVIRT_RESULT function takes two or three arguments. The
first one is the name of the result (aka CHECK_NAME). It is
printed before the colon character. The rest of the arguments is
printed after the character. To produce colourized output a
couple of changes needs to be made.

Firstly, we need to print the CHECK_NAME using "echo -n" so that
the new line is not appended at the end of the message. To
achieve this, AS_MESSAGE_N function is introduced. It's a
verbatim copy of AS_MESSAGE (which is just another alias to
AC_MSG_NOTICE) except it doesn't put '\n' at the EOL.

The alias is defined at /usr/share/autoconf-*/autoconf/general.m4
and the AS_MESSAGE is then defined at
/usr/share/autoconf-2.69/m4sugar/m4sh.m4.

Secondly, the rest of the arguments are printed colourized and to
achieve that and also keep printing them into the log file the
_AS_ECHO and COLORIZE_RESULT functions need to be called.

b18c273a24 remote: enable connecting to the per-driver daemons
Historically URIs handled by the remote driver will always connect to
the libvirtd UNIX socket. There will now be one daemon per driver, and
each of these has its own UNIX sockets to connect to.

It will still be possible to run the traditional monolithic libvirtd
though, which will have the original UNIX socket path.

In addition there is a virproxyd daemon that doesn't run any drivers,
but provides proxying for clients accessing libvirt over IP sockets, or
tunnelling to the legacy libvirtd UNIX socket path.

Finally when running inside a daemon, the remote driver must not reject
connections unconditionally. For example, the QEMU driver needs to be
able to connect to the network driver. The remote driver must thus be
willing to handle connections even when inside the daemon, provided no
local driver is registered.

This refactoring enables the remote driver to be able to connect to the
per-driver daemons. The URI parameter "mode" accepts the values "auto",
"direct" and "legacy" to control which daemons are connected to.

The client side libvirt.conf config file also supports a "remote_mode"
setting which is used if the URI parameter is not set.

If neither the config file or URI parameter set a mode, then "auto"
is used, whereby the client looks to see which sockets actually exist
right now.

The remote driver will only ever spawn the per-driver daemons, or
the legacy libvirtd. It won't ever try to spawn virtproxyd, as
that is only there for IP based connectivity, or for access from
legacy remote clients.

If connecting to a remote host over any kind of ssh tunnel, for now we
must assume only the legacy socket exists. A future patch will introduce
a netcat replacement that is tailored for libvirt to make remote
tunnelling easier.

The configure arg '--with-remote-default-mode=legacy|direct' allows
packagers to set a default at build time. If not given, it will default
to legacy mode.

Eventually the default will switch to direct mode. Distros can choose
to do the switch earlier if desired. The main blocker is testing and
suitable SELinux/AppArmor policies.

120465f38a m4: Fix check for yajl.pc
Commit 44b8df4cb4 introduced a check for yajl.pc that is
extremely similar to the one we already had in place for
readline.pc - so similar, in fact, that it's still looking
for readline.pc instead of yajl.pc :)

5a148ce846 remote: delete the avahi mDNS support
Libvirtd has long had integration with avahi for advertising libvirtd
using mDNS when TCP/TLS listening is enabled. For a long time the
virt-manager application had support for auto-detecting libvirtds
on the local network using mDNS, but this was removed last year

  commit fc8f8d5d7e3ba80a0771df19cf20e84a05ed2422

    connect: Drop avahi support

    Libvirtd can advertise itself over avahi. The feature is disabled by
    default though and in practice I hear of no one actually using it
    and frankly I don't think it's all that useful

    The 'Open Connection' wizard has a disproportionate amount of code
    devoted to this feature, but I don't think it's useful or worth
    maintaining, so let's drop it

I've never heard of any other applications having support for using
mDNS to detect libvirtd instances. Though it is theoretically possible
something exists out there, it is clearly going to be a niche use case
in the virt ecosystem as a whole.

By removing avahi integration we can cut down the dependency chain for
the basic libvirtd install and reduce our code maint burden.

523b799d3c m4: Provide default value fore UDEVADM
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1710575

It may happen that the system where libvirt is built at doesn't
have udevadm binary but the one where it runs does have it.
If we change how udevadm is run in virWaitForDevices() then we
can safely pass a default value in m4 macro.

44b8df4cb4 build: restore support for libyajl 2.0.1
Commit 105756660f was too eager and did
not consider SLES 12 which still has 2.0.1 that does not ship
a pkg-config file.

Similar to how we check for readline, prefer pkg-config if available
and fall back to the old detection code if not found.

NB: this is not a clean revert because we're not reintroducing support
for YAJL 1.

dfe06e6202 m4: readline: Add gross kludge for include path
Unfortunately the data reported by pkg-config is not completely
accurate, so until the issue has been fixed in readline we need
to work around it in libvirt.

The good news is that we only need the fix to land in FreeBSD
ports and macOS homebrew before we can drop the kludge, so
we're talking months rather than years.

c98de2173e m4: readline: Use pkg-config where possible
With the 7.0 release, readline has finally started shipping
pkg-config support in the form of a readline.pc file.

Unfortunately, most downstreams have yet to catch up with this
change: among Linux distributions in particular, Fedora Rawhide
seems to be the only one installing it at the moment.

Non-Linux operating systems have been faring much better in
this regard: both FreeBSD (through ports) and macOS (through
homebrew) include pkg-config support in their readline package.

This is great news for us, since those are the platforms where
pkg-config is more useful on account of them installing headers
and libraries outside of the respective default search paths.

Our implementation checks whether readline is registered as a
pkg-config package, and if so obtains CFLAGS and LIBS using the
tool; if not, we just keep using the existing logic.

This commit is best viewed with 'git show -w'.

The first implementation of this logic was introduced with
commit 2ec759fc58 all the way back in 2007; looking at the
build logs from our CI environment, however, it's apparent
that none of the platforms we currently target are actually
using it, so we can assume whatever issue it was working
around has been fixed at some point in the last 12 years.

9a063767f4 m4: readline: Extract code setting -D_FUNCTION_DEF
The current code is a bit awkward, and we're going to need
to share it later anyway. We can drop the call to AC_SUBST()
while we're at it, since LIBVIRT_CHECK_LIB() already marks
READLINE_CFLAGS for substitution.

The new code goes to some extra length to avoid setting
-D_FUNCTION_DEF twice: this is mostly for cosmetic reasons,
and it's necessary because LIBVIRT_CHECK_READLINE() is called
twice: once on its own, and then once more as part of
LIBVIRT_CHECK_BASH_COMPLETION().
