It turned out to be a spurious warning (we didn't use foundIdx
unless foundCt was non-zero). But in investigating that, I noticed
a worse problem: we were using 'if (foundCt > 1)', but since foundCt
was bool, it could never be > 1.

Currently, we are only keeping a inactive XML configuration
in status dir. This is no longer enough as we need to keep
this class_id attribute so we don't overwrite old entries
when the daemon restarts. However, since there has already
been release which has just <network/> as root element,
and we want to keep things compatible, detect that loaded
status file is older one, and don't scream about it.
Network should be notified if we plug in or unplug an
interface, so it can perform some action, e.g. set/unset
network part of QoS. However, we are doing this in very
early stage, so iface->ifname isn't filled in yet. So
whenever we want to report an error, we must use a different
identifier, e.g. the MAC address.
This is however supported only on domain interfaces with
type='network'. Moreover, target network needs to have at least
inbound QoS set. This is required by hierarchical traffic shaping.
From now on, the required attribute for <inbound/> is either 'average'
(old) or 'floor' (new). This new attribute can be used just for
interfaces type of network (<interface type='network'/>) currently.
The DHCPv6 support includes IPV6 dhcp-range and dhcp-host for one
IPv6 subnetwork on one interface. This support will only work
if dnsmasq version >= 2.64; otherwise an error occurs if
dhcp-range or dhcp-host is specified for an IPv6 address.
Essentially, this change provides the same DHCP support for IPv6
that has been available for IPv4.
With dnsmasq >= 2.64, support for the RA service is also now provided
by dnsmasq (radvd is no longer used/started). (Although at least one
version of dnsmasq prior to 2.64 "supported" IPv6 Router
Advertisement, there were bugs (fixed in 2.64) that rendered it
unusable.)
Documentation and the network schema has been updated
to reflect the new support.
virNetworkDefUpdateForward requires separate functions to parse and
clear a virNetworkForwardDef by itself, but they were previously just
inlined in the virNetworkDef parse and free functions. This patch
makes them into separate functions.
The attributes of a <network> element's <forward> element were
previously stored directly in the virNetworkDef object, but
virNetworkUpdateForward() needs to operate on a <forward> in
isolation, so this patchs pulls out all those attributes into a
separate virNetworkForwardDef struct (and shortens their names
appropriately). This new object is contained in the virNetworkDef, not
pointed to by it, so there is no extra memory management.
This patch makes no functional changes, it only changes, e.g.,
"nForwardIfs" to "forward.nifs".
The other clear functions in network_conf.c that clear out arrays of
sub-objects do so by using the n[itemname]s value as a counter going
down to 0. Make this one consistent. There's no functional value, just
makes the style more consistent with the rest of the file.
This makes some function names and arg lists for consistent with other
parse functions in network_conf.c. While modifying
virNetworkIPParseXML(), also change its "error" label to "cleanup",
since the code at that label is executed on success as well as
failure.
These three functions are very similar - none allow a MODIFY
operation; you can only add or delete.
The biggest difference between them (other than the data itself) is in
the criteria for determining a match, and whether or not multiple
matches are possible:
1) for HOST records, it's considered a match if the IP address or any
of the hostnames of an existing record matches.
2) for SRV records, it's a match if all of
domain+service+protocol+target *which have been specified* are
matched.
3) for TXT records, there is only a single field to match - name
(value can be the same for multiple records, and isn't considered a
search term), so by definition there can be no ambiguous matches.
In all three cases, if any matches are found, ADD will fail; if
multiple matches are found, it means the search term was ambiguous,
and a DELETE will fail.
The upper level code in bridge_driver.c is already implemented for
these functions - appropriate conf files will be re-written, and
dnsmasq will be SIGHUPed or restarted as appropriate.
Since there is only a single virNetworkDNSDef for any virNetworkDef,
and it's trivial to determine whether or not it contains any real
data, it's much simpler (and fits more uniformly with the parse
function calling sequence of the parsers for many other objects that
are subordinates of virNetworkDef) if virNetworkDef *contains* an
virNetworkDNSDef rather than pointing to one.
Since it is now just a part of another object rather than its own
object, it no longer makes sense to have a *Free() function, so that
is changed to a *Clear() function.
More importantly though, ParseXML and Clear functions are needed for
the individual items contained in a virNetworkDNSDef (srv, txt, and
host records), but none of them have a *Clear(), and only two of the
three had *ParseXML() functions (both of which used a non-uniform
arglist). Those problems are cleared up by this patch - it splits the
higher-level Clear function into separate functions for each of the
three, creates a parse for txt records, and cleans up the srv and host
parsers, so we now have all the utility functions necessary to
implement virNetworkDefUpdateDNS(Host|Srv|Txt).
This shortens the name of the structs for srv and txt, and their
instances in virNetworkDNSDef, to be more compact and uniform with the
naming of the dns host array. It also changes the type of ntxts, etc
from unsigned int to size_t, so that they can be used directly as args
to VIR_*_ELEMENT.
The already-written backend functions for virNetworkUpdate that add
and delete items into lists within the a network were already debugged
to work properly, but future such functions will use
VIR_(INSERT|DELETE)_ELEMENT instead, so these are changed for
uniformity.

It was possible to define a network with <forward mode='bridge'> that
had both a bridge device and a forward device defined. These two are
mutually exclusive by definition (if you are using a bridge device,
then this is a host bridge, and if you have a forward dev defined,
this is using macvtap). It was also possible to put <ip>, <dns>, and
<domain> elements in this definition, although those aren't supported
by the current driver (although it's conceivable that some other
driver might support that).
The items that are invalid by definition, are now checked in the XML
parser (since they will definitely *always* be wrong), and the others
are checked in networkValidate() in the network driver (since, as
mentioned, it's possible that some other network driver, or even this
one, could some day support setting those).
This patch adds the capability for virtual guests to do IPv6
communication via a virtual network interface with no IPv6 (gateway)
addresses specified. This capability has always been enabled by
default for IPv4, but disabled for IPv6 for security concerns, and
because it requires the ip6tables command to be operational (which
isn't the case on a system with the ipv6 module completely disabled).
This patch adds a new attribute "ipv6" at the toplevel of a <network>
object. If ipv6='yes', the extra ip6tables rules required to permite
inter-guest communications are added when the network is started. If
it is 'no', or not present, those rules will not be added; thus the
default behavior doesn't change, so there should be no compatibility
issues with any existing installations.
Note that virtual guests cannot communication with the virtualization
host via this interface, because the following kernel tunable has
been set:
net.ipv6.conf.<bridge_interface_name>.disable_ipv6 = 1
This assures that the bridge interface will not have an IPv6
link-local (fe80::) address.
To control this behavior so that it is not enabled by default, the parameter
ipv6='yes' on the <network> statement has been added.
Documentation related to this patch has been updated.
The network schema has also been updated.

The name attribute is required for portgroup elements (yes, the RNG
specifies that), and there is code in libvirt that assumes it is
non-null. Unfortunately, the portgroup parsing function wasn't
checking for lack of portgroup. One adverse result of this was that
attempts to update a network by adding a portgroup with no name would
cause libvirtd to segfault. For example:
virsh net-update default add portgroup "<portgroup default='yes'/>"
This patch causes virNetworkPortGroupParseXML to fail if no name is
specified, thus avoiding any later problems.
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.

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.

virNetworkUpdate, virNetworkDefine, and virNetworkCreate all three

with default='yes'. Only a single default portgroup should be allowed
for each network.
This patch updates networkValidate() (called by both
virNetworkCreate() and virNetworkDefine()) and

allow multiple default portgroups.

pointed out a crash due to virNetworkObjAssignDef free'ing
network->newDef without NULLing it afterward. A fix for this is in
upstream commit b7e9202401. While the
NULLing of newDef was a legitimate fix, newDef should have already
been empty (NULL) anyway (as indicated in the comment that was deleted
by that commit).
The reason that newDef had a non-NULL value (i.e. the root cause) was
that networkStartNetwork() had failed after populating
network->newDef, but then neglected to free/NULL newDef in the
cleanup.
(A bit of background here: network->newDef should contain the
persistent config of a network when a network is active (and of course
only when it is persisten), and NULL at all other times. There is also
a network->def which should contain the persistent definition of the
network when it is inactive, and the current live state at all other
times. The idea is that you can make changes to network->newDef which
will take effect the next time the network is restarted, but won't
mess with the current state of the network (virDomainObj has a similar
pair of virDomainDefs that behave in the same fashion). Personally I
think there should be a network->live and network->config, and the
location of the persistent config should *always* be in
network->config, but that's for a later cleanup).
Since I love things to be symmetric, I created a new function called
virNetworkObjUnsetDefTransient(), which reverses the effects of
virNetworkObjSetDefTransient(). I don't really like the name of the
new function, but then I also didn't really like the name of the old
one either (it's just named that way to match a similar function in
the domain conf code).
which frees all allocated memory but doesn't set the passed pointer to
NULL. Therefore, we must do it ourselves. This is causing actual
libvirtd crash: Basically, when doing 'virsh net-edit' the newDef should
be dropped. And the memory is freed, indeed. However, the pointer is
not set to NULL but kept instead. And the next duo of calls 'virsh
net-start' and 'virsh net-destroy' starts the disaster. The latter one
does the same as 'virsh destroy'; it sees that newDef is nonNULL so it
replaces def with newDef (which has been freed already as said a few
lines above). Therefore any subsequent call accessing def will hit the ground.
<interface> elements are location inside the <forward> element of a
network. There is only one <forward> element in any network, but it
might have many <interface> elements. This element only contains a
single attribute, "dev", which is the name of a network device
(e.g. "eth0").
Since there is only a single attribute, the modify operation isn't
supported for this "section", only add-first, add-last, and
delete. Also, note that it's not permitted to delete an interface from
the list while any guest is using it. We may later decide this is safe
(because removing it from the list really only excludes it from
consideration in future guest allocations of interfaces, but doesn't
affect any guests currently connected), but for now this limitation
seems prudent (of course when changing the persistent config, this
limitation doesn't apply, because the persistent config doesn't
support the concept of "in used").
Another limitation - it is also possible for the interfraces in this
list to be described by PCI address rather than netdev name. However,
I noticed while writing this function that we currently don't support
defining interfaces that way in config - the only method of getting
interfaces specified as <adress type='pci' ..../> instead of
<interface dev='xx'/> is to provide a <pf dev='yy'/> element under
forward, and let the entries in the interface list be automatically
populated with the virtual functions (VF) of the physical function
device given in <pg>.
As with the other virNetworkUpdate section backends, support for this
section is completely contained within a single static function, no
other changes were required, and only functions already called from
elsewhere within the same file are used in the new content for this
existing function (i.e., adding this code should not cause a new build
problem on any platform).
Every level of the code for virNetworkUpdate was assuming that some
other level was checking for validity of the "command" arg, but none
actually were. The result was that an invalid command code would do
nothing, but also report success.
Since the command code isn't used until the very lowest level backend
functions, that's where I put the check. I made a separate one-line
function to log the error. The compiler would have combined the
identical strings used by multiple calls if I'd just called
virReportError directly in each location, but sending them all to the
same string in the source guards against inadvertant divergence (which
would lead to extra work for translators.)
1) virNetworkObjUpdate should be an all or none operation, but in the
case that we want to update both the live state and persistent config
versions of the network, it was committing the update to the live
state before starting to update the persistent config. If update of
the persistent config failed, we would leave with things in an
inconsistent state - the live state would be updated (even though an
error was returned), but persistent config unchanged.
This patch changed virNetworkObjUpdate to use a separate pointer for
each copy of the virNetworkDef, and not commit either of them in the
virNetworkObj until both live and config parts of the update have
successfully completed.
2) The parsers for various pieces of the virNetworkDef have all sorts
of subtle limitations on them that may not be known by the
Update[section] function, making it possible for one of these
functions to make a modification directly to the object that may not
pass the scrutiny of a subsequent parse. But normally another parse
wouldn't be done on the data until the *next* time the object was
updated (which could leave the network definition in an unusable
state).
Rather than fighting the losing battle of trying to duplicate all the
checks from the parsers into the update functions as well, the more
foolproof solution to this is to simply do an extra
virNetworkDefCopy() operation on the updated networkdef -
virNetworkDefCopy() does a virNetworkFormat() followed by a
virNetworkParseString(), so it will do all the checks we need. If this
fails, then we don't commit the changed def.
portgroup elements are located in the toplevel of <network>
objects. There can be multiple <portgroup> elements, and they each
have a unique name attribute.
Add, delete, and modify are all supported for portgroup. When deleting
a portgroup, only the name must be specified in the provided xml - all
other attributes and subelements are ignored for the purposes of
matching and existing portgroup.
The bridge driver and virsh already know about the portgroup element,
so providing this backend should cause the entire stack to work. Note
that in the case of portgroup, there is no external daemon based on
the portgroup config, so nothing must be restarted.
It is important to note that guests make a copy of the appropriate
network's portgroup data when they are started, so although an updated
portgroup's configuration will have an affect on new guests started
after the cahange, existing guests won't magically have their
bandwidth changed, for example. If something like that is desired, it
will take a lot of redesign work in the way network devices are setup
(there is currently no link from the network back to the individual
interfaces using it, much less from a portgroup within a network back
to the individual interfaces).
The dhcp range element is contained in the <dhcp> element of one of a
network's <ip> elements. There can be multiple <range>
elements. Because there are only two attributes (start and end), and
those are exactly what you would use to identify a particular range,
it doesn't really make sense to modify an existing element, so
VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_MODIFY isn't supported for this section,
only ADD_FIRST, ADD_LAST, and DELETE.
Since virsh already has support for understanding all the defined
sections, this new backend is automatically supported by virsh. You
would use it like this:
virsh net-update mynet add ip-dhcp-range \
"<range start='1.2.3.4' end='1.2.3.20'/>" --live --config
The bridge driver also already supports all sections, so it's doing
the correct thing in this case as well - since the dhcp range is
placed on the dnsmasq commandline, the bridge driver recreates the
dnsmasq commandline, and re-runs dnsmasq whenever a range is
added/deleted (and AFFECT_LIVE is specified in the flags).

the 'If not, see <url>.' phrase be a separate sentence.
* tests/securityselinuxhelper.c: Remove doubled line.
* tests/securityselinuxtest.c: Likewise.
* globally: s/; If/. If/
The memmove to move elements in the dhcp hosts array when inserting
and deleting items was mistakenly basing the length of the copy on the
size of a virNetworkDHCPHostDefPtr rather than virNetworkDHCPHostDef,
with the expected disastrous results.
The memmove to delete an entry commits two errors - along with the
size of each element being wrong, it also omits some required
parentheses.
This patch fills in the first implementation for one of the
virNetworkUpdate sections. With this code, you can now add/delete/edit
<host> entries in a network's <ip> address <dhcp> element (by
specifying a section of VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST).
If you pass in a parentIndex of -1, the code will automatically find
the one ip element that has a <dhcp> section and make the updates
there. Otherwise, you can specify an index >= 0, and libvirt will look
for that particular instance of <ip> in the network, and modify its
<dhcp> element. (This currently isn't very useful, because libvirt
only supports having dhcp information on a single IP address, but that
could change in the future).
When adding a new host entry
(VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_ADD_(FIRST|LAST)), the existing entries
will be compared to the new entry, and if any non-empty attribute
matches, the add will fail. When updating an existing entry
(VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_MODIFY), the mac address or name will be
used to find the existing entry, and other fields will only be updated
(note there is some potential for ambiguity here if you specify the
mac address from one entry and the name from another). When deleting
an existing entry (VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_DELETE), all non-empty
attributes in the supplied xml arg will be compared - all of them must
match before libvirt will delete the host.
The xml should be a fully formed <host> element as it would appear in
a network definition, e.g. "<host mac=00:11:22:33:44:55 ip=10.1.23.22
name='testbox'/>" (when adding/updating, ip and one of mac|name is
required; when deleting, you can specify any one, two, or all
attributes, but they all must match the target element).
As with the update of any other section, you can choose to affect the
live config (with flag VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE), the persistent
config (VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG), or both. If you've chosen
to affect the live config, those changes will take effect immediately,
with no need to destroy/restart the network.
An example of adding a host entry:
virNetworkUpdate(net, VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_ADD_LAST,
VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST, -1,
"<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='192.168.122.5'/>",
VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE
| VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG);
To delete that same entry:
virNetworkUpdate(net, VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_DELETE,
VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST, -1,
"<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>",
VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE
| VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG);
(you could also delete it by replacing "mac='00:11:22:33:44:55'" with
"ip='192.168.122.5'".)
virNetworkObjUpdate takes care of all virNetworkUpdate-related changes
to the data stored in the in-memory virNetworkObj list. It should be
called by network drivers that use this in-memory list.
virNetworkObjUpdate *does not* take care of updating any disk-based
copies of the config, nor does it perform any other operations
necessary to have the new config data take effect (e.g. it won't
re-write dnsmasq host files, nor will it send a SIGHUP to dnsmasq) -
those things should all be taken care of in the network driver
function that calls virNetworkObjUpdate (assuming that it returns
success).
These new functions are highly inspired by those in domain_conf.c (but
not identical), and are intended to make it simpler to update the
various combinations of live/persistent network configs.
The network driver wasn't previously as careful about the separation
between the live "status" in network->def and the persistent "config"
in network->newDef (or sometimes in network->def). This series
attempts to remedy some of that, but probably doesn't go all the way
(enough to get these functions working and enable continued work on
virNetworkUpdate though).
bridge_driver.c and test_driver.c were updated in a few places to take
advantage of the new functions and/or account for changes in argument
lists.
virNetworkAssignDef was allocating a new network object, initing and
grabbing its lock, then potentially freeing it without unlocking or
destroying the lock. In practice 1) this will probably never happen,
and 2) even if it did, the lock implementation used on most (all?)
platforms doesn't actually hold any resources for an initialized or
held lock, but it still bothered me, so I moved the realloc that could
lead to this bad situation earlier in the function, and now the mutex
isn't inited or locked until we are assured of complete success.
These two objects were previously always parsed as a part of an IpDef,
but we will now need to be able to parse them on their own for
virNetworkUpdate(). Split the parsing functions out, with no
functional changes.

The following config elements now support a <vlan> subelements:
within a domain: <interface>, and the <actual> subelement of <interface>
within a network: the toplevel, as well as any <portgroup>
Each vlan element must have one or more <tag id='n'/> subelements. If
there is more than one tag, it is assumed that vlan trunking is being
requested. If trunking is required with only a single tag, the
attribute "trunk='yes'" should be added to the toplevel <vlan>
element.
Some examples:
<interface type='hostdev'/>
<vlan>
<tag id='42'/>
</vlan>
<mac address='52:54:00:12:34:56'/>

<network>
<name>vlan-net</name>
<vlan trunk='yes'>
<tag id='30'/>

<tag id='666'/>
</vlan>
</portgroup>
</network>
<interface type='network'/>
<source network='multi' portgroup='test'/>
...
</interface>
IMPORTANT NOTE: As of this patch there is no backend support for the
vlan element for *any* network device type. When support is added in
later patches, it will only be for those select network types that
support setting up a vlan on the host side, without the guest's
involvement. (For example, it will be possible to configure a vlan for
a guest connected to an openvswitch bridge, but it won't be possible
to do that for one that is connected to a standard Linux host bridge.)
Just as each physical device used by a network has a connections
counter, now each network has a connections counter which is
incremented once for each guest interface that connects using this
network.
The count is output in the live network XML, like this:
<network connections='20'>
...
</network>
It is read-only, and for informational purposes only - it isn't used
internally anywhere by libvirt.
