42b2f35d36 esx: Move VMX handling code out of the driver directory
Now the VMware driver doesn't depend on the ESX driver anymore.

Add a WITH_VMX option that depends on WITH_ESX and WITH_VMWARE.
Also add a libvirt_vmx.syms file.

Move some escaping functions from esx_util.c to vmx.c.

Adapt the test suite, ESX and VMware driver to the new code layout.

448347f8b0 vbox: Add glue layer for MSCOM on Windows
Don't require dlopen, but link to ole32 and oleaut32 on Windows.

Don't expose g_pVBoxFuncs anymore. It was only used to get the
version of the API. Make VBoxCGlueInit return the version instead.
This simplifies the implementation of the MSCOM glue layer.

Get the VirtualBox version from the registry.

Add a dummy implementation of the nsIEventQueue to the MSCOM glue
as there seems to be no direct equivalent with MSCOM. It might be
implemented using the normal window message loop. This requires
additional investigation.

7c08fcc439 Add a generic internal API for handling any FD based stream
To avoid the need for duplicating implementations of virStream
drivers, provide a generic implementation that can handle any
FD based stream. This code is copied from the existing impl
in the QEMU driver, with the locking moved into the stream
impl, and addition of a read callback

The FD stream code will refuse to operate on regular files or
block devices, since those can't report EAGAIN properly when
they would block on I/O

* include/libvirt/virterror.h, include/libvirt/virterror.h: Add
  VIR_FROM_STREAM error domain
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove code obsoleted by the new

f4a8542dd5 vbox: Stop hardcoding a single path for VBoxXPCOMC.so
This partly reverts df90ca7661.

Don't disable the VirtualBox driver when configure can't find
VBoxXPCOMC.so, rely on detection at runtime again instead.

Keep --with-vbox=/path/to/virtualbox intact, added to for:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609185

Detection order for VBoxXPCOMC.so:

1. VBOX_APP_HOME environment variable
2. configure provided location
3. hardcoded list of known locations
4. dynamic linker search path

Also cleanup the glue code and improve error reporting.

f22e670b4a qemu: work around dash 0.5.5 bug in managed save
Older dash mistakenly truncates regular files when using <> redirection;
this kills our use of double dd to reduce storage overhead when
saving qemu images.  But qemu insists on running a command through
/bin/sh, so we work around it by having qemu run $sh -c 'real command'
when we have a replacement $sh in mind.

* configure.ac (VIR_WRAPPER_SHELL): Define to a replacement shell,
if /bin/sh is broken on <> redirection.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (VIR_WRAPPER_SHELL_PREFIX)
(VIR_WRAPPER_SHELL_SUFFIX): New macros.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c (qemuMonitorTextMigrateToFile): Use
them.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONMigrateToFile):
Likewise.

968eb4e5cd Add dtrace static probes in libvirtd
Adds initial support for dtrace static probes in libvirtd
daemon, assuming use of systemtap dtrace compat shim on
Linux. The probes are inserted for network client connect,
disconnect, TLS handshake states and authentication protocol
states.

This can be tested by running the xample program and then
attempting to connect with any libvirt client (virsh,
virt-manager, etc).

 # stap examples/systemtap/client.stp
  Client fd=44 connected readonly=0
  Client fd=44 auth polkit deny pid:24997,uid:500
  Client fd=44 disconnected
  Client fd=46 connected readonly=1
  Client fd=46 auth sasl allow test
  Client fd=46 disconnected

The libvirtd.stp file should also really not be required,
since it is duplicated info that is already available in
the main probes.d definition file. A script to autogenerate
the .stp file is needed, either in libvirtd tree, or better
as part of systemtap itself.

* Makefile.am: Add examples/systemtap subdir
* autobuild.sh: Disable dtrace for mingw32
* configure.ac: Add check for dtrace
* daemon/.gitignore: Ignore generated dtrace probe file
* daemon/Makefile.am: Build dtrace probe header & object

* daemon/libvirtd.c: Add connect/disconnect & TLS probes
* daemon/remote.c: Add SASL and PolicyKit auth probes

  so that compilation is a no-op when dtrace is not available
* examples/systemtap/Makefile.am, examples/systemtap/client.stp
  Example systemtap script using dtrace probe markers
* libvirt.spec.in: Enable dtrace on F13/RHEL6
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Force disable dtrace

8f680ad3b8 Basic framework for auditing integration
Integrate with libaudit.so for auditing of important operations.
libvirtd gains a couple of config entries for auditing. By
default it will enable auditing, if its enabled on the host.
It can be configured to force exit if auditing is disabled
on the host. It will can also send audit messages via libvirt
internal logging API

Places requiring audit reporting can use the VIR_AUDIT
macro to report data. This is a no-op unless auditing is
enabled

  on mingw

b502a6ebac Rework configure logic for virtualport support
In this patch I am reworking the logic around detecting virtual port support and requiring the libnl dependency.

- It requires --with-macvtap and displays an error in case of --without-macvtap --with-virtualport.
- It tests for availability of certain data in include files and displays an error in case the include file is not at the correct level and --with-virtualport was chosen
- displays 'checking' messages for macvtap and virtualport support and results
- libnl support is required when macvtap is found or requested; if libnl is not there, please supply without-macvtap

40e973dd00 maint: turn on gcc logical-op checking
This would have detected the bug in commit 38ad33931 (Aug 09), which
we missed until commit f828ca35 (Jul 10); over 11 months later.

However, on Fedora 13, it also triggers LOTS of warnings from
the libcurl-devel header for two files:

esx/esx_vi.c: In function 'esxVI_CURL_Perform':
esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
...
xenapi/xenapi_driver.c: In function 'call_func':
xenapi/xenapi_driver.c:1872: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
xenapi/xenapi_driver.c:1872: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
xenapi/xenapi_driver.c:1872: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op]
...

libcurl allows to disable the type-checking code that triggers those
warnings, along with the reduction in type-safety of calls to some
libcurl functions. I figure this is worth the improved compiler
checking throughout the rest of libvirt.

* acinclude.m4 (--enable-compile-warnings=error): Add -Wlogical-op.
* configure.ac: Add -DCURL_DISABLE_TYPECHECK to LIBCURL_CFLAGS to
avoid compilation warning.

4018a026b2 build: fix VPATH builds
After the recent libvirt-qemu library addition, VPATH builds fail with:

generated and lives in $(builddir), libvirt_qemu.syms is static
and lives in $(srcdir).
* include/libvirt/libvirt-qemu.h (includes): Pull in libvirt.h via

21adf03c2d Qemu Monitor API entry point.
Add the library entry point for the new virDomainQemuMonitorCommand()
entry point.  Because this is not part of the "normal" libvirt API,
it gets its own header file, library file, and will eventually
get its own over-the-wire protocol later in the series.

Changes since v1:
 - Go back to using the virDriver table for qemuDomainMonitorCommand, due to
   linking issues
 - Added versioning information to the libvirt-qemu.so

Changes since v2:
 - None

Changes since v3:
 - Add LGPL header to libvirt-qemu.c
 - Make virLibConnError and virLibDomainError macros instead of function calls

Changes since v4:
 - Move exported symbols to libvirt_qemu.syms

ca3b22bb5c add 802.1Qbh and 802.1Qbg handling
This patch that adds support for configuring 802.1Qbg and 802.1Qbh
switches. The 802.1Qbh part has been successfully tested with real
hardware. The 802.1Qbg part has only been tested with a (dummy)
server that 'behaves' similarly to how we expect lldpad to 'behave'.

The following changes were made during the development of this patch:

 - Merging Scott's v13-pre1 patch
 - Fixing endptr related bug while using virStrToLong_ui() pointed out
   by Jim Meyering
 - Addressing Jim Meyering's comments to v11
 - requiring mac address to the vpDisassociateProfileId() function to
   pass it further to the 802.1Qbg disassociate part (802.1Qbh untouched)
 - determining pid of lldpad daemon by reading it from /var/run/libvirt.pid
   (hardcode as is hardcode alson in lldpad sources)
 - merging netlink send code for kernel target and user space target
   (lldpad) using one function nlComm() to send the messages
 - adding a select() after the sending and before the reading of the
   netlink response in case lldpad doesn't respond and so we don't hang
 - when reading the port status, in case of 802.1Qbg, no status may be
   received while things are 'in progress' and only at the end a status
   will be there.
 - when reading the port status, use the given instanceId and vf to pick
   the right IFLA_VF_PORT among those nested under IFLA_VF_PORTS.
 - never sending nor parsing IFLA_PORT_SELF type of messages in the
   802.1Qbg case
 - iterating over the elements in a IFLA_VF_PORTS to pick the right
   IFLA_VF_PORT by either IFLA_PORT_PROFILE and given profileId
   (802.1Qbh) or IFLA_PORT_INSTANCE_UUID and given instanceId (802.1Qbg)
   and reading the current status in IFLA_PORT_RESPONSE.
 - recycling a previous patch that adds functionality to interface.c to
   - get the vlan identifier on an interface
   - get the flags of an interface and some convenience function to
     check whether an interface is 'up' or not (not currently used here)
 - adding function to determine the root physical interface of an
   interface. For example if a macvtap is linked to eth0.100, it will
   find eth0. Also adding a function that finds the vlan on the 'way to
   the root physical interface'
 - conveying the root physical interface name and index in case of 802.1Qbg
 - conveying mac address of macvlan device and vlan identifier in
   IFLA_VFINFO_LIST[ IFLA_VF_INFO[ IFLA_VF_MAC(mac), IFLA_VF_VLAN(vlan) ] ]
   to (future) lldpad via netlink
  - To enable build with --without-macvtap rename the
    [dis|]associatePortProfileId functions, prepend 'vp' before their
    name and make them non-static functions.
  - Renaming variable multicast to nltarget_kernel and inverting
    the logic
  - Addressing Jim Meyering's comments; this also touches existing
    code for example for correcting indentation of break statements or
    simplification of switch statements.
  - Renamed occurrencvirVirtualPortProfileDef to virVirtualPortProfileParamses
  - 802.1Qbg part prepared for sending a RTM_SETLINK and getting
    processing status back plus a subsequent RTM_GETLINK to
    get IFLA_PORT_RESPONSE.
    Note: This interface for 802.1Qbg may still change
  - [David Allan] move getPhysfn inside IFLA_VF_PORT_MAX to avoid
compiler
    warning when latest if_link.h isn't available
  - move from Stefan's 802.1Qb{g|h} XML v8 to v9
  - move hostuuid and vf index calcs to inside doPortProfileOp8021Qbh
  - remove debug fprintfs
  - use virGetHostUUID (thanks Stefan!)
  - fix compile issue when latest if_link.h isn't available
  - change poll timeout to 10s, at 1/8 intervals
     - if polling times out, log msg and return -ETIMEDOUT
  - Add Stefan's code for getPortProfileStatus
  - Poll for up to 2 secs for port-profile status, at 1/8 sec intervals:
     - if status indicates error, abort openMacvtapTap
     - if status indicates success, exit polling
     - if status is "in-progress" after 2 secs of polling, exit
       polling loop silently, without error

My patch finishes out the 802.1Qbh parts, which Stefan had mostly complete.
I've tested using the recent kernel updates for VF_PORT netlink msgs and
enic for Cisco's 10G Ethernet NIC.  I tested many VMs, each with several
direct interfaces, each configured with a port-profile per the XML.  VM-to-VM,
and VM-to-external work as expected.  VM-to-VM on same host (using same NIC)
works same as VM-to-VM where VMs are on diff hosts.  I'm able to change
settings on the port-profile while the VM is running to change the virtual
port behaviour.  For example, adjusting a QoS setting like rate limit.  All
VMs with interfaces using that port-profile immediatly see the effect of the
change to the port-profile.

I don't have a SR-IOV device to test so source dev is a non-SR-IOV device,
but most of the code paths include support for specifing the source dev and
VF index.  We'll need to complete this by discovering the PF given the VF
linkdev.  Once we have the PF, we'll also have the VF index.  All this info-
mation is available from sysfs.
