I noticed this problem when adding systemd support to netcf, because I
setup the configure.ac to automatically prefer using systemd over
initscripts when possible - although I had copied the
install-data-local target from the example of libvirt's
"libvirt-guests" service more or less verbatim, "make distcheck" would
fail because it was trying to install the service file directly into
/lib/systemd/system rather than into
/home/user/some/unimportant/name/lib/systemd/system.
This is caused by the install/uninstall rules for the systemd unit
files relying on $(DESTDIR) pointing the installed files to the right
place, but in reality $(DESTDIR) is empty during this part of make
distcheck - it instead sets $(prefix) with the toplevel directory used
for its test build/install/uninstall cycle.
(This problem hasn't been seen when running "make distcheck" in
libvirt because libvirt will never build/install systemd support
unless explicitly told to do so on the configure commandline, and
"make distcheck" doesn't put the "--with-initscript=..." option on the
configure commandline.)
I verified that the same problem does exist in libvirt by modifying
libvirt's configure.ac to set:
init_systemd=yes
with_init_script=systemd+redhat
This forces a build/install of the systemd unit files during
distcheck, which yields an error like this:
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 virtlockd.service \
/lib/systemd/system/
libtool: install: warning: relinking `libvirt-qemu.la'
/usr/bin/install: cannot remove '/lib/systemd/system/virtlockd.service': Permission denied
make[4]: *** [install-systemd] Error 1
After adding $(prefix) to all the definitions of SYSTEMD_UNIT_DIR,
make distcheck now completes successfully with the modified
configure.ac, and the above lines change to something like this:
/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 virtlockd.service \
/home/laine/devel/libvirt/libvirt-1.2.1/_inst/lib/systemd/system/
The libvirt.so library has far too many library deps to allow
linking against it from setuid programs. Those libraries can
do stuff in __attribute__((constructor) functions which is
not setuid safe.
The virt-login-shell needs to link directly against individual
files that it uses, with all library deps turned off except
for libxml2 and libselinux.
Create a libvirt-setuid-rpc-client.la library which is linked
to by virt-login-shell. A config-post.h file allows this library
to disable all external deps except libselinux and libxml2.

Automake has builtin support to prevent botched conditional nesting,
but only if you use:
if FOO
else !FOO
endif !FOO
An example error message when using the wrong name:
daemon/Makefile.am:378: error: else reminder (LIBVIRT_INIT_SCRIPT_SYSTEMD_TRUE) incompatible with current conditional: LIBVIRT_INIT_SCRIPT_SYSTEMD_FALSE
daemon/Makefile.am:381: error: endif reminder (LIBVIRT_INIT_SCRIPT_SYSTEMD_TRUE) incompatible with current conditional: LIBVIRT_INIT_SCRIPT_SYSTEMD_FALSE
As our makefiles tend to have quite a bit of nested conditionals,
it's better to take advantage of the benefits of the build system
double-checking that our conditionals are well-nested, but that
requires a syntax check to enforce our usage style.
Alas, unlike C preprocessor and spec files, we can't use indentation
to make it easier to see how deeply nesting goes.

By passing the flags -z relro -z now to the linker, we can force
it to resolve all library symbols at startup, instead of on-demand.
This allows it to then make the global offset table (GOT) read-only,
which makes some security attacks harder.

PIE (position independent executable) adds security to executables
by composing them entirely of position-independent code (PIC. The
.so libraries already build with -fPIC. This adds -fPIE which is
the equivalent to -fPIC, but for executables. This for allows Exec
Shield to use address space layout randomization to prevent attackers
from knowing where existing executable code is during a security
attack using exploits that rely on knowing the offset of the
executable code in the binary, such as return-to-libc attacks.

We had several different styles of .in conversion in our Makefiles:
ALLCAPS, @ALLCAPS@, @lower@, ::lower::
Canonicalize on one form, to make it easier to copy and paste
between .in files.
Also, we were using some non-portable sed constructs: \@ is an
undefined escape sequence (it happens to be @ itself in GNU sed,
but POSIX allows it to mean something else), as well as risky
behavior (failure to consistently quote things means a space
in $(sysconfdir) could throw things off; also, Autoconf recommends
using | rather than , or ! in the s||| operator, because | has to
be quoted in shell and is therefore less likely to appear in file
names than , or !).
Fix all of these uses to follow the same syntax.

Having one .c file include another does not give any compilation
benefits; move towards modular .o files by first splitting out

The copyright dates in the manpages haven't been updated in awhile.
Also, when pod2man converts a pod file into a manpage, it will only
remove the extension from the filename if it is ".pod". Some of the
libvirt pod files are named *.pod.in, and that filename is placed
unchanged into the manpage. This patch uses pod2man's --name option to
fix that.
Believe it or not, there's even a BZ for this:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=819364
Currently, we either generate some cmd*Edit commands (cmdPoolEdit
and cmdNetworkEdit) via sed script or copy the body of cmdEdit
(e.g. cmdInterfaceEdit, cmdNWFilterEdit, etc.). This fact makes
it harder to implement any new feature to our editing system.
Therefore switch to new implementation - define macros to:
- dump XML (EDIT_GET_XML)
- take an action if XML wasn't changed,
usually just vshPrint() (EDIT_NOT_CHANGED)
- define new object (EDIT_DEFINE) - the edited XML is in @doc_edited
- free object defined by EDIT_DEFINE (EDIT_FREE)
and #include "virsh-edit.c"
To assist people in verifying that their host is operating in an
optimal manner, provide a 'virt-host-validate' command. For each
type of hypervisor, it will check any pre-requisites, or other
good recommendations and report what's working & what is not.
eg
# virt-host-validate
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/kvm : FAIL (Check that the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled virtualization)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost : WARN (Load the 'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun : PASS
LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26 : PASS
This warns people if they have vmx/svm, but don't have /dev/kvm. It
also warns about missing /dev/vhost net.
Commit 4d9e51f6 fixed a 'make uninstall' failure, but failed

In particular, we prefer MKDIR_P over mkdir -p, and should

created during install (the idea being that uninstall in a
DESTDIR should be clean, while installation in the final
system should not fail with non-empty directories left behind).

The installation rules for the libvirt-guests.service were
totally broken
- Installing in the wrong location
- The location was not overridable
- The install-systemd rule was not invoked anywhere
- The install-systemd rule was not invoking install-initscript
which it depends on
- The installed service file lacked a .service extension
* tools/Makefile.am: Fix install of libvirt-guests.service
This patch adds support for a systemd init service for libvirtd
and libvirt-guests. The libvirtd.service is *not* written to use
socket activation, since we want libvirtd to start on boot so it
can do guest auto-start.
The libvirt-guests.service is pretty lame, just exec'ing the
original init script for now. Ideally we would factor out the
functionality, into some shared tool.
Instead of
./configure --with-init-script=redhat
You can now do
./configure --with-init-script=systemd
Or better still:
./configure --with-init-script=systemd+redhat
We can also now support install of the upstart init script
* configure.ac: Add systemd, and systemd+redhat options to
--with-init-script option

* daemon/libvirtd.sysconf: Add note about unused env variable

Gettext annoyingly modifies CPPFLAGS in-place, putting
-I/usr/local/include into the search patch if libintl headers
must be used from that location. But since we must support
automake 1.9.6 which lacks AM_CPPFLAGS, and since CPPFLAGS is used
prior to INCLUDES, this means that the build picks up the _old_
installed libvirt.h in priority to the in-tree version, leading
to all sorts of weird build failures on FreeBSD.
Fix this by teaching configure to undo gettext's actions, but
to keep any changes required by gettext at the end of INCLUDES
after all in-tree locations are used first. Also requires
adding a wrapper Makefile.am and making gnulib-tool create
just gnulib.mk files during the bootstrap process.
