Previously libvirt's disk device XML only had a single attribute,
error_policy, to control both read and write error policy, but qemu
has separate options for controlling read and write. In one case
(enospc) a policy is allowed for write errors but not read errors.
This patch adds a separate attribute that sets only the read error
policy. If just error_policy is set, it will apply to both read and
write error policy (previous behavior), but if the new rerror_policy
attribute is set, it will override error_policy for read errors only.
Possible values for rerror_policy are "stop", "report", and "ignore"
("report" is the qemu-controlled default for rerror_policy when
error_policy isn't specified).
For consistency, the value "report" has been added to the possible
values for error_policy as well.
commit 12062ab set rerror=ignore when error_policy="enospace" was
selected (since the rerror option in qemu doesn't accept "enospc", as
the werror option does).
After that patch was already pushed, Paolo Bonzini noticed it and
commented that leaving rerror at the default ("report") would be a
better choice. This patch corrects the problem - if error_policy =
"enospace" is given, rerror is left off the qemu commandline,
effectively setting it to "report". For other values, rerror is still
set to match werror.
Additionally, the parsing of error_policy was changed to no longer
erroneously allow "default" as a choice - as with most other
attributes, if you want the default setting, just don't specify an
error_policy.
Finally, two ommissions in the first patch were corrected - a
long-dormant qemuxml2argv test for enospace was enabled, and fixed to
pass, and the argv2xml parser in qemu_command.c was updated to
recognize the different spelling on the qemu commandline.
Now that RHEL 6.2 Beta is out, it would be nice to test multifunction
devices on that platform. This changes things so that the multifunction
cap bit can be set in two different ways: by version comparison (needed
for qemu 0.13 which lacked a -device query), and by -device query
(provided by qemu.git and backported to the RHEL beta build of
qemu-kvm which still claims to be a modified 0.12, and therefore needed
for RHEL).
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsParseDeviceStr): Allow
second method of setting multifunction cap bit.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (mymain): Test it.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-rhel62-beta: New file.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-rhel62-beta-device: Likewise.
When support for was added for PCI multifunction cards (in commit
9f8baf, first included in libvirt 0.9.3), it was done by always
turning on the multifunction bit for all PCI devices. Since that time
it has been realized that this is not an ideal solution, and that the
multifunction bit must be selectively turned on. For example, see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728174
and the discussion before and after
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-September/msg01036.html
This patch modifies multifunction support so that the multifunction=on
option is only added to the qemu commandline for a device if its PCI
<address> definition has the attribute "multifunction='on'", e.g.:
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x04' function='0x0' multifunction='on'/>
In practice, the multifunction bit should only be turned on if
function='0' AND other functions will be used in the same slot - it
usually isn't needed for functions 1-7 (although there are apparently
some exceptions, e.g. the Intel X53 according to the QEMU source
code), and should never be set if only function 0 will be used in the
slot. The test cases have been changed accordingly to illustrate.
With this patch in place, if a user attempts to assign multiple
functions in a slot without setting the multifunction bit for function
0, libvirt will issue an error when the domain is defined, and the
define operation will fail. In the future, we may decide to detect
this situation and automatically add multifunction=on to avoid the
error; even then it will still be useful to have a manual method of
turning on multifunction since, as stated above, there are some
devices that excpect it to be turned on for all functions in a slot.
A side effect of this patch is that attempts to use the same PCI
address for two different devices will now log an error (previously
this would cause the domain define operation to fail, but there would
be no log message generated). Because the function doing this log was
almost completely rewritten, I didn't think it worthwhile to make a
separate patch for that fix (the entire patch would immediately be
obsoleted).
The AppArmor security driver adds only the path specified in the domain
XML for character devices of type 'pipe'. It should be using <path>.in
and <path>.out. We do this by creating a new vah_add_file_chardev() and
use it for char devices instead of vah_add_file(). Also adjust
valid_path() to accept S_FIFO (since qemu chardevs of type 'pipe' use
fifos). This is https://launchpad.net/bugs/832507
This patch was made in response to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738095
In short, qemu's default for the rombar setting (which makes the
firmware ROM of a PCI device visible/not on the guest) was previously
0 (not visible), but they recently changed the default to 1
(visible). Unfortunately, there are some PCI devices that fail in the
guest when rombar is 1, so the setting must be exposed in libvirt to
prevent a regression in behavior (it will still require explicitly
setting <rom bar='off'/> in the guest XML).
rombar is forced on/off by adding:
<rom bar='on|off'/>
inside a <hostdev> element that defines a PCI device. It is currently
ignored for all other types of devices.
At the moment there is no clean method to determine whether or not the
rombar option is supported by QEMU - this patch uses the advice of a
QEMU developer to assume support for qemu-0.12+. There is currently a
patch in the works to put this information in the output of "qemu-kvm
-device pci-assign,?", but of course if we switch to keying off that,
we would lose support for setting rombar on all the versions of qemu
between 0.12 and whatever version gets that patch.
QEMU 0.13 introduced cache=unsafe for -drive, this patch exposes
it in the libvirt layer.
* Introduced a new QEMU capability flag ($prefix_CACHE_UNSAFE),
as even if $prefix_CACHE_V2 is set, we can't know if unsafe
is supported.
* Improved the reliability of qemu cache type detection.
Prior to commit 85d2810, we had an issue where:
snapshot-create-as dom name --diskspec spec --diskspec spec
failed to parse the second spec, because the first spec had marked
that option as no longer requiring an argument.
In commit 85d2810, I fixed it by making argv options no longer mark
the option as seen. But this in turn breaks mandatory argv options,
which now complain that the argv option is missing.
This patch reverts that part of 85d2810, and instead replaces it with
fixes to no longer clear opts_need_arg of an argv argument.
* tools/virsh.c (vshCmddefGetOption, vshCmddefGetData)
(vshCommandParse): Fix option parsing for required argv option.

The commit that prevents disk corruption on domain shutdown
(96fc478417) causes regression with QEMU
0.14.* and 0.15.* because of a regression bug in QEMU that was fixed
only recently in QEMU git. The affected versions of QEMU do not quit on
SIGTERM if started with -no-shutdown, which we use to implement fake
reboot. Since -no-shutdown tells QEMU not to quit automatically on guest
shutdown, domains started using the affected QEMU cannot be shutdown
properly and stay in a paused state.
This patch disables fake reboot feature on such QEMU by not using
-no-shutdown, which makes shutdown work as expected. However,
virDomainReboot will not work in this case and it will report "Requested
operation is not valid: Reboot is not supported with this QEMU binary".
When libvirt calls virInitialize it creates a thread local
for the virErrorPtr storage, and registers a callback to
cleanup memory when a thread exits. When libvirt is dlclose()d
or otherwise made non-resident, the callback function is
removed from memory, but the thread local may still exist
and if a thread later exists, it will invoke the callback
and SEGV. There may also be other thread locals with callbacks
pointing to libvirt code, so it is in general never safe to
unload libvirt.so from memory once initialized.
To allow dlclose() to succeed, but keep libvirt.so resident
in memory, link with '-z nodelete'. This issue was first
found with the libvirt CIM provider, but can potentially
hit many of the dynamic language bindings which all ultimately
involve dlopen() in some way, either on libvirt.so itself,
or on the glue code for the binding which in turns links
to libvirt
* configure.ac, src/Makefile.am: Ensure libvirt.so is linked
with -z nodelete
* cfg.mk, .gitignore, tests/Makefile.am, tests/shunloadhelper.c,
tests/shunloadtest.c: A test case to unload libvirt while
a thread is still running.
With this patch, it is hopefully a bit more obvious that for
snapshot-create-as, a literal '--diskspec' is mandatory if name
or description was omitted, but optional if all earlier options
were provided.
These all denote two diskspecs and a description:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc vda vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc --diskspec vda vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name desc vda --diskspec vdb
virsh snapshot-create-as dom --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb name desc
This gives two diskspecs but no description:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name --diskspec vda --diskspec vdb
And this treats 'vda' as the description, with only one diskspec:
virsh snapshot-create-as dom name vda vdb
The help output now shows:
snapshot-create-as <domain> [<name>] [<description>] [--print-xml] [--no-metadata] [--halt] [--disk-only] [[--diskspec] <string>]...
I also checked the help output for echo and send-key, which are two

I got confused when 'virsh domblkinfo dom disk' required the
path to a disk (which can be ambiguous, since a single file
can back multiple disks), rather than the unambiguous target
device name that I was using in disk snapshots. So, in true
developer fashion, I went for the best of both worlds - all
interfaces that operate on a disk (aka block) now accept
either the target name or the unambiguous path to the backing
file used by the disk.

QEMU uses USB bus name "usb.0" when using the legacy -usb argument.
If we want to allow USB devices to specify their addresses with legacy
-usb, we should either in case of legacy bus name drop the 0 from the
address bus, or just drop the 0 from device id. This patch does the
later.
Another solution would be to permit addressing on non-legacy USB
controllers only.
So that devices can be attached to hubs. Example, to attach to first
port of a usb-hub on port 1.
<hub type='usb'>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
</hub>
<input type='mouse' type='usb'>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1.1'/>
</hub>

The VIR_TEST_DEBUG and VIR_TEST_VERBOSE env vars did not work
because we replaced 'environ' with 'newenv'. Simply calling
virTestGetDebug/Verbose() before replacing the 'environ' ensures
we have processed the env variables.
The gnutls initialization code opens /dev/urandom and keeps that
FD around for later use. We have code which kills off FDs 3-5

FD which is irrelevant for testing purposes

In some versions of qemu, both virtio-blk-pci and virtio-net-pci
devices can have an event_idx setting that determines some details of
event processing. When it is enabled, it "reduces the number of
interrupts and exits for the guest". qemu will automatically enable
this feature when it is available, but there may be cases where this
new feature could actually make performance worse (NB: no such case
has been found so far).
As a safety switch in case such a situation is encountered in the
field, this patch adds a new attribute "event_idx" to the <driver>
element of both disk and interface devices. event_idx can be set to
"on" (to force event_idx on in case qemu has it disabled by default)
or "off" (for force event_idx off). In the case that event_idx support
isn't present in qemu, the attribute is ignored (this on the advice of
the qemu developer).

The public API documents that undefine may be used to transition a
running persistent domain into a transient one. Many drivers still
do not support this usage, but virsh shouldn't be getting in the
way of those that do support it.
This also drops a redundant conditional; vshCommandOptString
guaranteed that name was non-NULL.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdUndefine): Allow undefine on active domains;
the drivers may still reject it, but it is a valid API usage.
* tests/undefine (error): Fix the test to match.
The following XML:
<serial type='udp'>
<source mode='connect' service='9999'/>
</serial>
is accepted by domain_conf.c but maps to the qemu command line:
-chardev udp,host=127.0.0.1,port=2222,localaddr=(null),localport=(null)
qemu can cope with everything omitting except the connection port, which
seems to also be the intent of domain_conf validation, so let's not
generate bogus command lines for that case.
The defaults are empty strings for addresses and 0 for the localport
Additionally, tweak the qemu cli parsing to handle omitted host
parameters
for -serial udp
Detection based on gnutls_session doesn't work because GnuTLS 2.x.y
comes with a compat.h that defines gnutls_session to gnutls_session_t.
Instead detect this based on LIBGNUTLS_VERSION_MAJOR. Move this from
configure/config.h to gnutls_1_0_compat.h and make sure that all users
include gnutls_1_0_compat.h properly.
Also fix header guard in gnutls_1_0_compat.h.
This is in response to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=723862
which points out that a guest on an "isolated" network could
potentially exploit the DNS forwarding provided by dnsmasq to create a
communication channel to the outside.
This patch eliminates that possibility by adding the "--no-resolv"
argument to the dnsmasq commandline, which tells dnsmasq to not
forward on any requests that it can't resolve itself (by looking at
its own static hosts files and runtime list of dhcp clients), but to
instead return a failure for those requests.
This shouldn't cause any undesirable change from current
behavior, even in the case where a guest is currently configured with
multiple interfaces, one of them being connected to an isolated
network, and another to a network that does have connectivity to the
outside. If the isolated network's DNS server is queried for a name
it doesn't know, it will return "Refused" rather than "Unknown", which
indicates to the guest that it should query other servers, so it then
queries the connected DNS server, and gets the desired response.
POSIX states that 'a=1; a=2 b=$a command' has unspecified results
for the value of $b visible within command. In particular, on
BSD, this resulted in PATH not picking up the in-test ssh.
* tests/Makefile.am (lv_abs_top_builddir): New macro.
(path_add, TESTS_ENVIRONMENT): Use it to avoid referring to an
environment variable set previously within the same command line.
