lzop was removed due to some confusion over whether it provided functional
advantages distinct from xz. This has been addressed in the mailing list post
archived at http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.libvirt/16487, and
support for lzop is re-added here.
* libvirt.spec.in: add dependancy on lzop
* src/qemu.conf: update documentation of save_image_format
* src/qemu_driver.c: re-add lzop compression option
* src/qemu_driver.c: drop lzma and lzop images compression options
as they are deprecated by xz
* libvirt.spec.in: add requires for xz/bzip2/gzip as they are needed
to implement the compression options
Separate the guest created QEMU monitor socket location
from the libvirtd create XML / PID data files, to improve
security separation when running QEMU non-root
* libvirt.spec.in: Leave /var/run/libvirt/qemu as root:root
* src/qemu_conf.h: Add libDir and cacheDir directory paths
* src/qemu_driver.c: Move QEMU monitor socket from
stateDir to libDir to avoid making security critical directory
accessible to QEMU guests.
* src/util.c: Delay running hook till after damonizing to
ensure pidfile is still written before changing UID/GID
Define an <encryption> tag specifying volume encryption format and
format-depenedent parameters (e.g. passphrase, cipher name, key
length, key).
Currently the only defined parameter is a reference to a "secret"
(passphrase/key) managed using the virSecret* API.
Only the qcow/qcow2 encryption format, and a "default" format used to
let libvirt choose the format during volume creation, is currently
supported.
This patch does not add any users; the <encryption> tag is added in
the following patches to both volumes (to support encrypted volume
creation) and domains.
* docs/*.html: Re-generate
* docs/formatstorageencryption.html.in, docs/sitemap.html.in:
Add page describing storage encryption data format
* docs/schemas/Makefile.am, docs/schemas/storageencryption.rng:
Add RNG schema for storage encryption format
* po/POTFILES.in: Add src/storage_encryption_conf.c
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virStorageEncryption* functions
* src/storage_encryption_conf.h, src/storage_encryption_conf.c: Internal
helper APIs for dealing with storage encryption format
* libvirt.spec.in, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Add storageencryption.rng
RNG schema
This patch adds a "secret" as a separately managed object, using a
special-purpose API to transfer the secret values between nodes and
libvirt users.
* docs/schemas/secret.rng, docs/schemas/Makefilem.am: Add new
schema for virSecret objects
* docs/*html: Re-generated
* docs/formatsecret.html.in, docs/sitemap.html.in: Add page
describing the virSecret XML schema
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define the new virSecret public
API
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export symbols for new public APIs
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in, libvirt.spec.in: Add secret.rng to
files list
* configure.in: Check for pkcheck which indicates new policykit
* qemud/Makefile.am: Install different versions of policy
* qemud/libvirtd.policy: Rename to libvirtd.policy-0
* qemud/libvirtd.policy-1: new style policy
* qemud/qemud.c, qemud/qemud.h, qemud/remote.c: Support new
policykit API via external pkcheck helper
* src/remote_internal.c: Don't prompt for polkit auth with new
policykit API
* libvirt.spec.in: deal with new policy install locations & deps
Allow qemu user to open kernel/initrds in this dir, but still prevent
others from listing it.
* libvirt.spec.in: set /var/lib/libvirt/boot perms to 0711
polkit was disabled by default for a reason - because we selectively
enable it on newer fedoras rather than disable it on older fedoras
Same fix needed for netcf
It's not needed at build time
Removed in Fedora by:
* Fri Jun 5 2009 Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> - 0.6.4-2.fc12
- Remove the qemu BuildRequires
Disabled on < f12 for now until netcf is in Fedora updates
BuildRequires netcf if enabled, pass --without-netcf if its disabled
* libvirt.spec.in: enabled netcf by default
* libvirt.spec.in: make a client rpm with shared libs, client binaries
and resources needed by those, and a small number of fixes and
cleanups in the spec file.
* configure.in: Add --with-qemu-user and --with-qemu-group args
* libvirt.spec.in: use 'qemu' for user/group for Fedora >= 12
* qemud/libvirtd_qemu.arg, qemud/test_libvirtd_qemu.aug,
src/qemu.conf: Add 'user' and 'group' args for configuration
* src/Makefile.am: Create %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu_conf.h: Load user/group from config
* src/qemu_driver.c: Change user ID/group ID when launching QEMU
guests. Change user/group ownership on disks/usb/pci devs.
Put memory dumps in %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/util.c, src/util.h: Add convenient APIs for converting
username/groupname to user ID / group ID
* configure.in libvirt.spec.in src/Makefile.am
src/opennebula/one_client.[ch] src/opennebula/one_conf.h
src/opennebula/one_driver.[ch] : Finish the integration of OpenNebula,
avoid dependancy on OpenNebula libraries, require xmlrpc-c-devel
and build it by default, based on patch by Javier Fontan and DanB
