Use virStorageBackendPoolUseDevPath API to determine whether creation of
stable target path is possible for the volume.
This will differentiate a failed virStorageBackendStablePath which won't
need to be fatal. Thus, we'll add a -2 return value to differentiate that
the failure was a result of either the inability to find the symlink for
the device or failure to open the target path directory
In order to be able to use 'checkPool' inside functions which do not
have any connection reference, 'conn' attribute needs to be discarded
from the checkPool's signature, since it's not used by any storage backend
anyway.

When libvirt create's the vport (VPORT_CREATE) for the vHBA, there isn't
enough "time" between the creation and the running of the following
backend->refreshPool after a backend->startPool in order to find the LU's.
Population of LU's happens asynchronously when udevEventHandleCallback
discovers the "new" vHBA port. Creation of the infrastructure by udev
is an iterative process creating and discovering actual storage devices and
adjusting the environment.
Because of the time it takes to discover and set things up, the backend
refreshPool call done after the startPool call will generally fail to
find any devices. This leaves the newly started pool appear empty when
querying via 'vol-list' after startup. The "workaround" has always been
to run pool-refresh after startup (or any time thereafter) in order to
find the LU's. Depending on how quickly run after startup, this too may
not find any LUs in the pool. Eventually though given enough time and
retries it will find something if LU's exist for the vHBA.
This patch adds a thread to be executed after the VPORT_CREATE which will
attempt to find the LU's without requiring the external run of refresh-pool.
It does this by waiting for 5 seconds and searching for the LU's. If any
are found, then the thread completes; otherwise, it will retry once more
in another 5 seconds. If none are found in that second pass, the thread
gives up.
Things learned while investigating this... No need to try and fill the
pool too quickly or too many times. Over the course of creation, the udev
code may 'add', 'change', and 'delete' the same device. So if the refresh
code runs and finds something, it may display it only to have a subsequent
refresh appear to "lose" the device. The udev processing doesn't seem to
have a way to indicate that it's all done with the creation processing of a
newly found vHBA. Only the Lone Ranger has silver bullets to fix everything.
Fix a problem in the getBlockDevice and processLU where retval initialized
to zero causing some failures to erroneously continue through to the
virStorageBackendSCSINewLun with an attempt to find a path for "/dev/(null)".
This would fail approximately 10 seconds later with debug message:
virStorageBackendSCSINewLun:203 :
No stable path found for '/dev/(null)' in '/dev/disk/by-path'
The root cause of the issue is for many /sys/bus/scsi/devices/<lun path>
there is no "block*" device found for the vHBA's, where "<lun path>" are
the various paths created for the vHBA, such as "17:0:0:0", "17:0:1:0",
"17:0:2:0", "17:0:3:0", etc. If the block device isn't found, then the
directory should just be ignored rather than attempting to process it.
The bug was that in getBlockDevice the assumption was "block" would exist
and either getNewStyleBlockDevice or getOldStyleBlockDevice would fill in
@block_device. However, if 'block*' doesn't exist, then the code returned
NULL for block_device *and* a good (zero) retval value. This caused the
processLU code to attempt the virStorageBackendSCSINewLun which failed
"at some point in time" in the future.
After this change - on test system the refresh-pool didn't have a noticable
pause of about 20 seconds - it completed within a second since no longer
was there an attempt/need to find "/dev/(null)".
Additionally, the virStorageBackendSCSIFindLU's shouldn't be declaring
found unless the processLU actually returns success. This will be
important in the followup patch which relies on whether a LU was found.

Introduce a 'managed' attribute to allow libvirt to decide whether to
delete a vHBA vport created via external means such as nodedev-create.
The code currently decides whether to delete the vHBA based solely on
whether the parent was provided at creation time. However, that may not
be the desired action, so rather than delete and force someone to create
another vHBA via an additional nodedev-create allow the configuration of
the storage pool to decide the desired action.
During createVport when libvirt does the VPORT_CREATE, set the managed
value to YES if not already set to indicate to the deleteVport code that
it should delete the vHBA when the pool is destroyed.
If libvirtd is restarted all the memory only state was lost, so for a
persistent storage pool, use the virStoragePoolSaveConfig in order to
write out the managed value.
Because we're now saving the current configuration, we need to be sure
to not save the parent in the output XML if it was undefined at start.
Saving the name would cause future starts to always use the same parent
which is not the expected result when not providing a parent. By not
providing a parent, libvirt is expected to find the best available
vHBA port for each subsequent (re)start.
At deleteVport, use the new managed value to decide whether to execute
the VPORT_DELETE. Since we no longer save the parent in memory or in
XML when provided, if it was not provided, then we have to look it up.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160926
Passing a copy of the storage pool adapter to a function just changes the
copy of the fields in the particular function and then when returning to
the caller those changes are discarded. While not yet biting us in the
storage clean-up case, it did cause an issue for the fchost storage pool
startup case, createVport. The issue was at startup, if no parent is found
in the XML, the code will search for the 'best available' parent and then
store that in the in memory copy of the adapter. Of course, in this case
it was a copy, so when returning to the virStorageBackendSCSIStartPool that
change was discarded (or lost) from the pool->def->source.adapter which
meant at shutdown (deleteVport), the code assumed no adapter was passed
and skipped the deletion, leaving the vHBA created by libvirt still defined
requiring an additional stop of a nodedev-destroy to remove.
Adjusted the createVport to take virStoragePoolDefPtr instead of the
adapter copy. Then use the virStoragePoolSourceAdapterPtr when processing.
A future patch will need the 'def' anyway, so this just sets up for that.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1160565
The existing code assumed that the configuration of a 'parent' attribute
was correct for the createVport path. As it turns out, that may not be
the case which leads errors during the deleteVport path because the
wwnn/wwpn isn't associated with the parent.
With this change the following is reported:
error: Failed to start pool fc_pool_host3
error: XML error: Parent attribute 'scsi_host4' does not match parent 'scsi_host3' determined for the 'scsi_host16' wwnn/wwpn lookup.

If a 'parent' attribute is provided for the fchost, then at startup
time check to ensure it is a vport capable scsi_host. If the parent
is not vport capable, then disallow the startup. The following is the
expected results:
error: Failed to start pool fc_pool
error: XML error: parent 'scsi_host2' specified for vHBA is not vport capable
where the XML for the fc_pool is:
<pool type='scsi'>
<name>fc_pool</name>

<adapter type='fc_host' parent='scsi_host2' wwnn='5001a4aaf3ca174b' wwpn='5001a4a77192b864'/>
</source>
...
and 'scsi_host2' is not vport capable.
Providing an incorrect parent and a correct wwnn/wwpn could lead to
failures at shutdown (deleteVport) where the assumption is the parent
is for the fchost.
NOTE: If the provided wwnn/wwpn doesn't resolve to an existing scsi_host,
then we will be creating one with code (virManageVport) which
assumes the parent is vport capable.

If a parentaddr was provided in the XML, have getAdapterName lookup
the stable address. This allows virStorageBackendSCSICheckPool() and
virStorageBackendSCSIRefreshPool() to automagically find the scsi_host
by its PCI address and unique_id
Rather than assume that NOT FC_HOST is SCSI_HOST, let's call them out
specifically. Makes it easier to find SCSI_HOST code/structs and ensures
something isn't missed in the future

Commit id 'ac9a0963' refactored out the 'withCapacity' for the
virStorageBackendUpdateVolInfo() API. See:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-April/msg00043.html
This resulted in a difference in how 'virsh vol-info --pool <poolName>
<volume>' or 'virsh vol-list vol-list --pool <poolName> --details' outputs
the capacity information for a directory pool with a qcow2 sparse file.
For example, using the following XML
mkdir /home/TestPool
cat testpool.xml
<pool type='dir'>
<name>TestPool</name>
<uuid>6bf80895-10b6-75a6-6059-89fdea2aefb7</uuid>

<permissions>

</permissions>
</target>
</pool>
virsh pool-create testpool.xml
virsh vol-create-as --pool TestPool temp_vol_1 \
--capacity 1048576 --allocation 1048576 --format qcow2
virsh vol-info --pool TestPool temp_vol_1
Results in listing a Capacity value. Prior to the commit, the value would
be '1.0 MiB' (1048576 bytes). However, after the commit the output would be
(for example) '192.50 KiB', which for my system was the size of the volume
in my file system (eg 'ls -l TestPool/temp_vol_1' results in '197120' bytes
or 192.50 KiB). While perhaps technically correct, it's not necessarily
what the user expected (certainly virt-test didn't expect it).
This patch restores the code to not update the target capacity for this path

Currently VolOpen notifies the user of a potentially non-fatal failure by
returning -2 and logging a VIR_WARN or VIR_INFO. Unfortunately most
callers treat -2 as fatal but don't actually report any message with
the error APIs.
Rename the VOL_OPEN_ERROR flag to VOL_OPEN_NOERROR. If NOERROR is specified,
we preserve the current behavior of returning -2 (there's only one caller
that wants this).
However in the default case, only return -1, and actually use the error
APIs. Fix up a couple callers as a result.
Now that each virStorageSource can track allocation information,
and given that we already have the information without extra

One of the features of qcow2 is that a wrapper file can have
more capacity than its backing file from the guest's perspective;
what's more, sparse files make tracking allocation of both
the active and backing file worthwhile. As such, it makes
more sense to show allocation numbers for each file in a chain,
and not just the top-level file. This sets up the fields for
the tracking, although it does not modify XML to display any

The "checkPool" is a bit different for pool with "fc_host"
type source adapter, since the vHBA it's based on might be
not created yet (it's created by "startPool", which is
involked after "checkPool" in storageDriverAutostart). So it
should not fail, otherwise the "autostart" of the pool will
fail either.
The problem is easy to reproduce:
* Enable "autostart" for the pool
* Restart libvirtd service
* Check the pool's state
For pool which relies on remote resources, such as a "iscsi" type
pool, since how long it takes to export the corresponding devices
to host's sysfs is really depended, it could depend on the network
connection, it also could depend on the host's udev procedures. So
it's likely that the volumes are not able to be detected during pool
starting process, polling the sysfs doesn't work, since we don't
know how much time is best for the polling, and even worse, the
volumes could still be not detected or partly not detected even after
the polling. So we end up with a documentation to prompt the fact,
in virsh manual.
And as a small improvement, let's explicitly say no LUNs found in
the debug log in that case.
It makes no sense to go forward to get the parent host number of a
HBA, and treat the HBA as a vHBA with trying to delete it.

This reverts f90af69 which switched wwpn & wwwn in the wrong place.

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
This finds the parent for vHBA by iterating over all the HBA
which supports vport_ops capability on the host, and return
the first one which is online, not saturated (vports in use
is less than max_vports).
startPool creates the vHBA if it's not existed yet, stopPool destroys
the vHBA. Also to support autostart, checkPool will creates the vHBA
if it's not existed yet.
The helper iterates over sysfs, to find out the matched scsi host
name by comparing the wwnn,wwpn pair. It will be used by checkPool
and refreshPool of storage scsi backend. New helper getAdapterName
is introduced in storage_backend_scsi.c, which uses the new util
helper virGetFCHostNameByWWN to get the fc_host adapter name.
node device driver names the HBA like "scsi_host5", but storage
driver uses "host5", which could make the user confused. This
changes them to be consistent. However, for back-compat reason,
adapter name like "host5" is still supported.
This introduces 4 new attributes for storage pool source adapter.
E.g.
<adapter type='fc_host' parent='scsi_host5' wwnn='20000000c9831b4b' wwpn='10000000c9831b4b'/>
Attribute 'type' can be either 'scsi_host' or 'fc_host', and defaults
to 'scsi_host' if attribute 'name' is specified. I.e. It's optional
for 'scsi_host' adapter, for back-compat reason. However, mandatory
for 'fc_host' adapter and any new future adapter types. Attribute
'parent' is to specify the parent for the fc_host adapter.
