This patch introduces the RNG schema and updates necessary data strucutures
to allow various hypervisors to make use of Gluster protocol as one of the
supported network disk backend. Next patch will add support to make use of
this feature in Qemu since it now supports Gluster protocol as one of the
network based storage backend.
Two new optional attributes for <host> element are introduced - 'transport'
and 'socket'. Valid transport values are tcp, unix or rdma. If none specified,
tcp is assumed. If transport is unix, socket specifies path to unix socket.
This patch allows users to specify disks on gluster backends like this:
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='gluster' name='Volume1/image'>
<host name='example.org' port='6000' transport='tcp'/>
</source>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>
<disk type='network' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source protocol='gluster' name='Volume2/image'>
<host transport='unix' socket='/path/to/sock'/>
</source>
<target dev='vdb' bus='virtio'/>
</disk>

Although we require various C99 features, we don't yet require a
complete C99 compiler. On RHEL 5, compilation complained:
qemu/qemu_command.c: In function 'qemuBuildGraphicsCommandLine':
qemu/qemu_command.c:4688: error: 'for' loop initial declaration used outside C99 mode
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildGraphicsCommandLine): Declare
variable sooner.
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessInitPasswords): Likewise.
The error "... but the cause is unknown" appeared for XMLs similar to
this:
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source file='/dev/zero'/>
<target dev='sr0'/>
</disk>
Notice unsupported disk type (for the driver), but also no address
specified. The first part is not a problem and we should not abort
immediately because of that, but the combination with the address
unknown was causing an unspecified error.
While fixing this, I added an error to one place where this return
value was not managed properly.
I have been testing libvirt v1.0.0 for deployment within my
organization, and in the process discovered what appears to be a bug
that breaks virsh attach-device, when attaching an RBD volume to an
instance. First, here is the error presented, with v1.0.0 (this worked
in v0.10.2):
[root@host ~]# virsh attach-device W5APQ8 G84VV1.xml
error: Failed to attach device from G84VV1.xml
error: cannot open file 'dc3-1-test/G84VV1': No such file or directory
Using git bisect, I narrowed the problem down to this as the first
commit to break this setup:
4d34c92947e8cf9e9bedfa227ada1d2dba92d68a is the first bad commit
Upcoming patches for revert-and-clone branching of snapshots need

This patch adds a helper to determine if snapshots are external and uses
the helper to fix detection of those in snapshot deletion code.
Snapshots are external if they have an external memory image or if the
disk locations are external. As mixed snapshots are forbidden for now
we need to check just one disk to know.
Currently, if user calls virDomainAbortJob we just issue
'migrate_cancel' and hope for the best. However, if user calls
the API in wrong phase when migration hasn't been started yet
(perform phase) the cancel request is just ignored. With this
patch, the request is remembered and as soon as perform phase
starts, migration is cancelled.
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...

When the libvirt daemon is restarted it tries to reconnect to running
qemu domains. Since commit d38897a5d4b1880e1998394b2a37bba979bbdff1 the
re-connection code runs in separate threads. In the original
implementation the maximum of domain ID's (that is used as an
initializer for numbering guests created next) while libvirt was
reconnecting to the guest.
With the threaded implementation this opens a possibility for race
conditions with the thread that is autostarting guests. When there's a
guest running with id 1 and the daemon is restarted. The autostart code
is reached first and spawns the first guest that should be autostarted
as id 1. This results into the following unwanted situation:
# virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
1 guest1 running
1 guest2 running
This patch extracts the detection code before the re-connection threads
are started so that the maximum id of the guests being reconnected to is
known.
The only semantic change created by this is if the guest with greatest ID
quits before we are able to reconnect it's ID is used anyway as the
greatest one as without this patch the greatest ID of a process we could
successfuly reconnect to would be used.
This patch adds support for external disk snapshots of inactive domains.
The snapshot is created by calling using qemu-img by calling:
qemu-img create -f format_of_snapshot -o
backing_file=/path/to/src,backing_fmt=format_of_backing_image
/path/to/snapshot
in case the backing image format is known or probing is allowed and
otherwise:
qemu-img create -f format_of_snapshot -o backing_file=/path/to/src
/path/to/snapshot
on each of the disks selected for snapshotting. This patch also modifies
the snapshot preparing function to support creating external snapshots
and to sanitize arguments. For now the user isn't able to mix external
and internal snapshots but this restriction might be lifted in the
future.
Some operations, APIs needs domain to be paused prior operation can be
performed, e.g. (managed-) save of a domain. The processors should be
restored in the end. However, if 'cont' fails for some reason, we log a
message but this is not sufficient as an event should be emitted as
well. Mgmt application can then decide what to do.
The code that was split out into the qemuDomainSaveMemory expands the
pointer containing the XML description of the domain that it gets from
higher layers. If the pointer changes the old one is invalid and the
upper layer function tries to free it causing an abort.
This patch changes the expansion of the original string to a new
allocation and copy of the contents.
qemu is sensitive to the order of arguments passed. Hence, if a
device requires a controller, the controller cmd string must
precede device cmd string. The same apply for controllers, when
for instance ccid controller requires usb controller. So
controllers create partial ordering in which they should be added
to qemu cmd line.
Some of the pre-snapshot check have restrictions wired in regarding
configuration options that influence taking of external checkpoints.
This patch removes restrictions that would inhibit taking of such a
snapshot.
This patch adds support to take external system checkpoints.
The functionality is layered on top of the previous disk-only snapshot
code. When the checkpoint is requested the domain memory is saved to the
memory image file using migration to file. (The user may specify to
take the memory image while the guest is live with the
VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_LIVE flag.)
The memory save image shares format with the image created by
virDomainSave() API.
Before now, libvirt supported only internal snapshots for active guests.
This patch renames this function to qemuDomainSnapshotCreateActiveInternal
to prepare the grounds for external active snapshots.
The new external system checkpoints will require an async job while the
snapshot is taken. This patch adds QEMU_ASYNC_JOB_SNAPSHOT to track this
job type.
The code that saves domain memory by migration to file can be reused
while doing external checkpoints of a machine. This patch extracts the
common code and places it in a separate function.
When pausing the guest while migration is running (to speed up
convergence) the virDomainSuspend API checks if the migration job is
active before entering the job. This could cause a possible race if the
virDomainSuspend is called while the job is active but ends before the
Suspend API enters the job (this would require that the migration is
aborted). This would cause a incorrect event to be emitted.
Both system checkpoint snapshots and disk snapshots were iterating
over all disks, doing a final sanity check before doing any work.
But since future patches will allow offline snapshots to be either
external or internal, it makes sense to share the pass over all
disks, and then relax restrictions in that pass as new modes are
implemented. Future patches can then handle external disks when
the domain is offline, then handle offline --disk-snapshot, and
finally, combine with migration to file to gain a complete external
system checkpoint snapshot of an active domain without using 'savevm'.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotDiskPrepare)
(qemuDomainSnapshotIsAllowed): Merge...
(qemuDomainSnapshotPrepare): ...into one function.
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Update caller.
Now that the XML supports listing internal snapshots, it is worth
always populating the <memory> and <disks> element to match.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Always
parse disk info and set memory info.
The libvirt coding standard is to use 'function(...args...)'
instead of 'function (...args...)'. A non-trivial number of
places did not follow this rule and are fixed in this patch.

BZ:https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=871273
when using virsh qemu-attach to attach an existing qemu process,
if it misses the -M option in qemu command line, libvirtd crashed
because the NULL value of def->os.machine in later use.
Example:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name foo \
-cdrom /var/lib/libvirt/images/boot.img \
-monitor unix:/tmp/demo,server,nowait \
error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor
This patch tries to set default machine type if the value of
def->os.machine is still NULL after qemu command line parsing.
Per the code comment in qemuCapsInitQMPBasic() and commit 43e23c7, we
should only use QMP for capabilities probing starting with 1.2 and
newer. The old code had dead logic that probed on 1.0 and newer.

The QEMU -drive id= begins with libvirt's QEMU host drive prefix
("drive-"), which is stripped off in several places two convert between
host ("-drive") and guest ("-device") device names.
In the case of BlkIoTune it is unnecessary to strip the QEMU host drive
prefix because we operate on "info block"/"query-block" output that uses
host drive names.
Stripping the prefix incorrectly caused string comparisons to fail since
we were comparing the guest device name against the host device name.

Recent fixes made almost all the right steps to make emulator pinned
to the cpuset of the whole domain in case <emulatorpin> isn't
specified, but qemudDomainGetEmulatorPinInfo still reports all the
CPUs even when cpuset is specified. This patch fixes that.
When there is no 'qemu-kvm' binary and the emulator used for a machine
is, for example, 'qemu-system-x86_64' that, by default, runs without
kvm enabled, libvirt still supplies '-no-kvm' option to this process,
even though it does not recognize such option (making the start of a
domain fail in that case).
This patch fixes building a command-line for QEMU machines without KVM
acceleration and is based on following assumptions:
- QEMU_CAPS_KVM flag means that QEMU is running KVM accelerated
machines by default (without explicitly requesting that using a
command-line option). It is the closest to the truth according to
the code with the only exception being the comment next to the
flag, so it's fixed in this patch as well.
- QEMU_CAPS_ENABLE_KVM flag means that QEMU is, by default, running
without KVM acceleration and in case we need KVM acceleration it
needs to be explicitly instructed to do so. This is partially
true for the past (this option essentially means that QEMU
recognizes the '-enable-kvm' option, even though it's almost the
same).
Currently, we use iohelper when saving/restoring a domain.
However, if there's some kind of error (like I/O) it is not
propagated to libvirt. Since it is not qemu who is doing
the actual write() it will not get error. The iohelper does.
Therefore we should check for iohelper errors as it makes
libvirt more user friendly.
In the XML warning, we print a virsh command line that can be used to
edit that XML. This patch prints UUIDs if the entity name contains
special characters (like shell metacharacters, or "--" that would break
parsing of the XML comment). If the entity doesn't have a UUID, just
print the virsh command that can be used to edit it.
When using block copy to pivot over to a new chain, the backing files
for the new chain might still need labeling (particularly if the user
passes --reuse-ext with a relative backing file name). Relabeling a
file that is already labeled won't hurt, so this just labels the entire
chain at the point of the pivot. Doing the relabel of the chain uses
the fact that we already safely probed the file type of an external
file at the start of the block copy.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockPivot): Relabel chain before
asking qemu to pivot.
Use the recent addition of qemuDomainPrepareDiskChainElement to
obtain locking manager lease, permit a block device through cgroups,
and set the SELinux label; then audit the fact that we hand a new
file over to qemu. Alas, releasing the lease and label at the end
of the mirroring is a trickier prospect (we would have to trace the
backing chain of both source and destination, and be sure not to
revoke rights to any part of the chain that is shared), so for now,
virDomainBlockJobAbort still leaves things with additional access
granted (as block-pull and block-commit have the same problem of
not clamping access after completion, a future cleanup would cover
all three commands).
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockCopy): Set up labeling.
