This patch adds instrumentation that will allow hypervisor drivers to
fill and validate domain and device definitions after parsed by the XML
parser.
With this patch, after the XML is parsed, a callback to the driver is
issued requesting to fill and validate driver specific details of the
configuration. This allows to use sensible defaults and checks on a per
driver basis at the time the XML is parsed.
Two callback pointers are stored in the new virDomainXMLConf object:
* virDomainDeviceDefPostParseCallback (devicesPostParseCallback)
- called for a single device parsed and for every single device in a
domain config. A virDomainDeviceDefPtr is passed along with the
domain definition and virCaps.
* virDomainDefPostParseCallback, (domainPostParseCallback)
- A callback that is meant to process the domain config after it's
parsed. A virDomainDefPtr is passed along with virCaps.
Both types of callbacks support arbitrary opaque data passed for the
callback functions.
Errors may be reported in those callbacks resulting in a XML parsing
failure.
This patch is the result of running:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep -v html | grep -v \.po$ ); do
sed -i -e "s/virDomainXMLConf/virDomainXMLOption/g" -e "s/xmlconf/xmlopt/g" $i
done
and a few manual tweaks.
Format the address using the helper instead of having similar code in
multiple places.
This patch also fixes leak of the MAC address string in
ebtablesRemoveForwardAllowIn() and ebtablesAddForwardAllowIn() in
src/util/virebtables.c
The virCaps structure gathered a ton of irrelevant data over time that.
The original reason is that it was propagated to the XML parser
functions.
This patch aims to create a new data structure virDomainXMLConf that
will contain immutable data that are used by the XML parser. This will
allow two things we need:
1) Get rid of the stuff from virCaps
2) Allow us to add callbacks to check and add driver specific stuff
after domain XML is parsed.
This first attempt removes pointers to private data allocation functions
to this new structure and update all callers and function that require
them.
To enable virCapabilities instances to be reference counted,
turn it into a virObject. All cases of virCapabilitiesFree
turn into virObjectUnref

The duplicate VM checking should be done atomically with

Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically
poll all stateful drivers. Thus sucks because it requires
acquiring both the driver lock and locks on every single virtual

which drivers can invoke whenever they want to inhibit shutdown
due to existance of active VMs.

For S390, the default console target type cannot be of type 'serial'.
It is necessary to at least interpret the 'arch' attribute
value of the os/type element to produce the correct default type.
Therefore we need to extend the signature of defaultConsoleTargetType
to account for architecture. As a consequence all the drivers
supporting this capability function must be updated.
Despite the amount of changed files, the only change in behavior is
that for S390 the default console target type will be 'virtio'.
N.B.: A more future-proof approach could be to to use hypervisor
specific capabilities to determine the best possible console type.
For instance one could add an opaque private data pointer to the
virCaps structure (in case of QEMU to hold capsCache) which could
then be passed to the defaultConsoleTargetType callback to determine
the console target type.
Seems to be however a bit overengineered for the use case...

I hit this problem recently when trying to create a bridge with an IPv6
address on a 3.2 kernel: dnsmasq (and, further, radvd) would not bind to
the given address, waiting 20s and then giving up with -EADDRNOTAVAIL
(resp. exiting immediately with "error parsing or activating the config
file", without libvirt noticing it, BTW). This can be reproduced with (I
think) any kernel >= 2.6.39 and the following XML (to be used with
"virsh net-create"):
<network>
<name>test-bridge</name>
<bridge name='testbr0' />
<ip family='ipv6' address='fd00::1' prefix='64'>
</ip>
</network>
(it happens even when you have an IPv4, too)
The problem is that since commit [1] (which, ironically, was made to
“help IPv6 autoconfiguration”) the linux bridge code makes bridges
behave like “real” devices regarding carrier detection. This makes the
bridges created by libvirt, which are started without any up devices,
stay with the NO-CARRIER flag set, and thus prevents DAD (Duplicate
address detection) from happening, thus letting the IPv6 address flagged
as “tentative”. Such addresses cannot be bound to (see RFC 2462), so
dnsmasq fails binding to it (for radvd, it detects that "interface XXX
is not RUNNING", thus that "interface XXX does not exist, ignoring the
interface" (sic)). It seems that this behavior was enhanced somehow with
commit [2] by avoiding setting NO-CARRIER on empty bridges, but I
couldn't reproduce this behavior on my kernel. Anyway, with the “dummy
tap to set MAC address” trick, this wouldn't work.
To fix this, the idea is to get the bridge's attached device to be up so
that DAD can happen (deactivating DAD altogether is not a good idea, I
think). Currently, libvirt creates a dummy TAP device to set the MAC
address of the bridge, keeping it down. But even if we set this device
up, it is not RUNNING as soon as the tap file descriptor attached to it
is closed, thus still preventing DAD. So, we must modify the API a bit,
so that we can get the fd, keep the tap device persistent, run the
daemons, and close it after DAD has taken place. After that, the bridge
will be flagged NO-CARRIER again, but the daemons will be running, even
if not happy about the device's state (but we don't really care about
the bridge's daemons doing anything when no up interface is connected to
it).
Other solutions that I envisioned were:
* Keeping the *-nic interface up: this would waste an fd for each
bridge during all its life. May be acceptable, I don't really
know.
* Stop using the dummy tap trick, and set the MAC address directly
on the bridge: it is possible since quite some time it seems,
even if then there is the problem of the bridge not being
RUNNING when empty, contrary to what [2] says, so this will need
fixing (and this fix only happened in 3.1, so it wouldn't work
for 2.6.39)
* Using the --interface option of dnsmasq, but I saw somewhere
that it's not used by libvirt for backward compatibility. I am
not sure this would solve this problem, though, as I don't know
how dnsmasq binds itself to it with this option.
This is why this patch does what's described earlier.
This patch also makes radvd start even if the interface is
“missing” (i.e. it is not RUNNING), as it daemonizes before binding to
it, and thus sometimes does it after the interface has been brought down
by us (by closing the tap fd), and then originally stops. This also
makes it stop yelling about it in the logs when the interface is down at
a later time.

This bug was revealed by the crash described in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=852383
The vlan info pointer sent to virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort should never
be non-NULL unless there is at least one tag. The factthat such a vlan
info pointer was receveid pointed out that a caller was passing the
wrong pointer. Instead of sending &net->vlan, the result of
virDomainNetGetActualVlan(net) should be sent - that function will
look for vlan info in net->data.network.actual->vlan, and in cany case
return NULL instead of a pointer if the vlan info it finds has no
tags.
Aside from causing the crash, sending a hardcoded &net->vlan has the
effect of ignoring vlan info from a <network> or <portgroup> config.
Add the ability to support VLAN tags for Open vSwitch virtual port
types. To accomplish this, modify virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort and
virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort to take a virNetDevVlanPtr
argument. When adding the port to the OVS bridge, setup either a
single VLAN or a trunk port based on the configuration from the
virNetDevVlanPtr.

The meat of this patch is just moving the calls to
virNWFilterRegisterCallbackDriver from each hypervisor's "register"
function into its "initialize" function. The rest is just code
movement to allow that, and a new virNWFilterUnRegisterCallbackDriver
function to undo what the register function does.
The long explanation:
There is an array in nwfilter called callbackDrvArray that has
pointers to a table of functions for each hypervisor driver that are
called by nwfilter. One of those function pointers is to a function
that will lock the hypervisor driver. Entries are added to the table
by calling each driver's "register" function, which happens quite
early in libvirtd's startup.
Sometime later, each driver's "initialize" function is called. This
function allocates a driver object and stores a pointer to it in a
static variable that was previously initialized to NULL. (and here's
the important part...) If the "initialize" function fails, the driver
object is freed, and that pointer set back to NULL (but the entry in
nwfilter's callbackDrvArray is still there).
When the "lock the driver" function mentioned above is called, it
assumes that the driver was successfully loaded, so it blindly tries
to call virMutexLock on "driver->lock".
BUT, if the initialize never happened, or if it failed, "driver" is
NULL. And it just happens that "lock" is always the first field in
driver so it is also NULL.
Boom.
To fix this, the call to virNWFilterRegisterCallbackDriver for each
driver shouldn't be called until the end of its (*already guaranteed
successful*) "initialize" function, not during its "register" function
(which is currently the case). This implies that there should also be
a virNWFilterUnregisterCallbackDriver() function that is called in a
driver's "shutdown" function (although in practice, that function is
currently never called).

When sending SIGHUP to libvirtd, it will trigger the virStateDriver
reload operation. This is intended to reload the configuration files
for guests. For unknown historical reasons this is also triggering
autostart of all guests. Autostart is generally expected to be
something that happens on OS startup. Starting VMs on SIGHUP will
violate that expectation and potentially cause dangerous scenarios
if the admin has explicitly shutdown a misbehaving VM that has
been marked as autostart

When the last reference to a virConnectPtr is released by
libvirtd, it was possible for a deadlock to occur in the
virDomainEventState functions. The virDomainEventStatePtr
holds a reference on virConnectPtr for each registered
callback. When removing a callback, the virUnrefConnect
function is run. If this causes the last reference on the
virConnectPtr to be released, then virReleaseConnect can
be run, which in turns calls qemudClose. This function has
a call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn which is intended
to remove all callbacks associated with the virConnectPtr
instance. This will try to grab a lock on virDomainEventState
but this lock is already held. Deadlock ensues
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7fcbb526a840 (LWP 23185)):
Since each callback associated with a virConnectPtr holds a
reference on virConnectPtr, it is impossible for the qemudClose
method to be invoked while any callbacks are still registered.
Thus the call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn must in fact
be a no-op. Thus it is possible to just remove all trace of
virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn and avoid the deadlock.
