Allow an arbitrary timezone with QEMU by setting the $TZ environment
variable when launching QEMU
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Set TZ environment variable if a timezone
is requested
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: Add test case for timezones
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-france.xml,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-france.args: Data
for timezone tests
This extends the XML to allow for
<clock offset='timezone' timezone='Europe/Paris'/>
This is useful if the admin has not configured any timezone on the
host OS, but still wants to synchronize a guest to a specific one.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c: Support extra
'timezone' attribute on clock configuration
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add 'timezone' attribute
* src/xen/xend_internal.c, src/xen/xm_internal.c: Reject configs
with a configurable timezone
This allows QEMU guests to be started with an arbitrary clock
offset
The test case can't actually be enabled, since QEMU argv expects
an absolute timestring, and this will obviously change every
time the test runs :-( Hopefully QEMU will allow a relative
time offset in the future.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Use the -rtc arg
if available to support variable clock offset mode
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: Add QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_RTC for qemu 0.12.1
* qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-variable.args,
qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-variable.xml,
qemuxml2argvtest.c: Test case, except we can't actually enable
it yet.
This introduces a third option for clock offset synchronization,
that allows an arbitrary / variable adjustment to be set. In
essence the XML contains the time delta in seconds, relative to
UTC.
<clock offset='variable' adjustment='123465'/>
The difference from 'utc' mode, is that management apps should
track adjustments and preserve them at next reboot.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Schema for new clock mode
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Parse
new clock time delta
* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/util/xml.c, src/util/xml.h: Add
virXPathLongLong() method
The XML will soon be extended to allow more than just a simple
localtime/utc boolean flag. This change replaces the plain
'int localtime' with a separate struct to prepare for future
extension
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add a new
virDomainClockDef structure
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virDomainClockOffsetTypeToString
and virDomainClockOffsetTypeFromString
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c, src/xen/xend_internal.c,
src/xen/xm_internal.c: Updated to use new structure for localtime
* tools/virsh.c (cmdPoolDiscoverSources): Always initialize srcSpec.
Otherwise, clang would report that srcSpec could be used uninitialized
in the call to virConnectFindStoragePoolSources.
While building under RHEL-5, I got a compile warning because
virDomainObjFormat was defined but not used. That came about
because in RHEL-5 we build with "#define PROXY", and
virDomainObjFormat is only used with !PROXY. Move the
define.

* src/openvz/openvz_conf.c (openvzGetVEID): Always call fclose.
Diagnose parse failure also when vzlist output is empty.
If somehow we read a -1, diagnose that (albeit as a parse failure).
Kind of minor, but it annoys me that the default auth callback
doesn't put a space between the prompt and the input, like a typical
terminal, ssh, etc. This patch changes the current prompt:
Please enter your authentication name:myuser
to
Please enter your authentication name: myuser
From time to time I bork my install, and hate it when the initscript
returns no info. This patch removes the sanity check, which lets
the shell give us 'command not found' or 'permission denied' errors.
If I toggle enable_tcp in libvirtd.conf and add --listen in
/etc/init.d/libvirtd, I get the unhelpful error:
Starting libvirtd daemon: error: Unable to initialize network sockets.
Running without --daemon provides much more useful info:
sudo libvirtd --listen
11:29:26.117: error : remoteCheckCertFile:270 : Cannot access CA certificate '/etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem': No such file or directory
The daemon architecture makes it difficult to report this useful
info if daemonized, so point users to /var/log/messages and
dropping the --daemon flag if they want more info.
Only API calls trigger the error callback, which is required for
proper virsh error reporting. Since we use non API functions from
util/, make sure we properly report these errors.
Fixes lack of error message from 'virsh create idontexit.xml'
Add missing rule to build html/libvirt-libvirt.html.
Use a GNU Make pattern rule to avoid running apibuild.py once
for each out-of-date target, in a parallel build.
* docs/Makefile.am
* docs/Makefile.am (libvirt-api.xml libvirt-refs.xml): Generalize
apibuild.py to work in a non-srcdir build. Pass "srcdir" to it.
* docs/apibuild.py (rebuild): Honor the $srcdir envvar.
* docs/Makefile.am (MAINTAINERCLEANFILES): Use this variable
for generated-and-distributed files, not "CLEANFILES".
Besides, "make clean" and "make distclean" should not delete
distributed files.
since we're using gettext-0.14.1, which uses that now-obsolete
automake symbol. Otherwise, make distcheck would fails like this:
make[2]: Entering directory `/t/libvirt-0.7.6/_build/po'
/bin/sh @MKINSTALLDIRS@ /t/libvirt-0.7.6/_inst/share
/bin/sh: @MKINSTALLDIRS@: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [install-data-yes] Error 127
* configure.ac (MKINSTALLDIRS): Define.
For reference, we're currently hamstrung by our desire
to support RHEL5, which still uses gettext-0.14:

Requiring git 1.6.4, just for the optional GNULIB_SRCDIR support,
was too harsh. Resynchronize from gnulib.
* .gnulib: Import from latest gnulib.
* bootstrap: Re-synchronize from .gnulib/build-aux.
* bootstrap.conf: Drop git to 1.5.5.
* README-hacking: Document use of GNULIB_SRCDIR.
In bug 567931 we found that virt-top would exit occasionally
when the terminal window was resized. Tracking this down it
turned out that SIGWINCH was being delivered to the process at
exactly the point where the libvirt remote driver was calling
poll(2) waiting for a reply from libvirtd.
This caused the poll(2) call to be interrupted (returning errno
EINTR). However handling EINTR the same way as EAGAIN was not
the solution to this problem since we found previously that this
would break Ctrl-C handling (commit 47fec8eac2).
The correct solution is to mask out SIGWINCH for the duration
of the poll(2) system call. The per-thread mask is changed and
restored immediately after the call. Since we are using
pthread_sigmask, this should not affect other threads, and
since we restore the signal mask immediately afterwards it should
not affect the current thread visibly either. Other possibly
problematic signals are SIGCHLD and SIGPIPE and these are
masked too.
Note use of ignore_value: It's not fatal if we cannot mask out
SIGWINCH, and in any case pthread_sigmask never fails on Linux
as long as you supply the correct arguments.
I tested this patch and it cures the original problem with
virt-top.
Create the filesystem on the partition used by the pool
* configure.ac: check for mkfs availability
* libvirt.spec.in: add extra require on util-linux for mkfs
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: run mkfs with the expected
fs type when creating a filesystem pool
Copy the latest gnulib bootstrap, which runs autoreconf and
generates po/Makevars for us. Other improvements include some
improved prerequisite tool checking.
This also fixes a bug in the .pot files, regarding the copyright holder.
* bootstrap: Update to version in .gnulib/build-aux.
* bootstrap.conf (MSGID_BUGS_ADDRESS, COPYRIGHT_HOLDER, SKIP_PO)
(gnulib_mk, ACLOCAL, bootstrap_epilogue): Provide overrides.
* autogen.sh (autoreconf): Avoid redundant autoreconf if bootstrap
was run.
* po/Makevars: Delete, now that bootstrap creates it.
* po/.gitignore: Update.
Borrow ideas from gnulib/build-aux/bootstrap, in order to factor the
specifics of libvirt into bootstrap.conf, while allowing future
upgrades of bootstrap to happen with less effort.
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Update invocation to be closer to
gnulib's version. Move libvirt specifics...
* bootstrap.conf: ...into new file.
