Updated the paths in the man page to reflect what the code in libvirtd
does. In addition broke out the FILES section into two subsections for
files used when run as root and files used when run as non-root.
Provided information about the defaults that libvirtd uses when running
as non-root and when XDG_CONFIG_HOME and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR are not set in
the environment.
REMOTE_PID_FILE is no longer used in the source or the build process but
the man page still used it resulting in no file name being displayed.
The same value that the libvirtd daemon code uses is now used in the man
page.
Currently the man page has paths that start with @sysconfdir@,
@localstatedir@ and @remote_pid_file@. The sed command attempts to
replace these during the build but unfortunately pod2man gets to the
files first and escapes the @ character resulting in the sed not
working. This removes the @ character and makes the paths correct.
Currently there is a hook function that is invoked when a
new client connection comes in, which allows an app to
setup private data. This setup will make it difficult to
serialize client state during process re-exec(). Change to
a model where the app registers a callback when creating
the virNetServerPtr instance, which is used to allocate
the client private data immediately during virNetClientPtr
construction.

When running libvirtd from a build directory on a system with unmodified
libtool, libvirtd's binary is not renamed as "lt-libvirtd". Check for
"/daemon/.libs/libvirtd" in addition to "lt-libvirtd".
Security manager is not a dynamically loadable driver, it's a common
infrastructure similar to util, conf, cpu, etc. used by individual
drivers. Such code is allowed to be linked into libvirt.so.
This reverts commit ec5b7bd2ec and most of
aae5cfb699.
This patch is supposed to fix virdrivermoduletest failures for qemu and
lxc drivers as well as libvirtd's ability to load qemu and lxc drivers.

Daemon uses the following pattern when dispatching APIs with typed
parameters:
VIR_ALLOC_N(params, nparams);
virDomain*(dom, params, &nparams, flags);
virTypedParameterArrayClear(params, nparams);
In case nparams was originally set to 0, virDomain* API would fill it
with the number of typed parameters it can provide and we would use this
number (rather than zero) to clear params. Because VIR_ALLOC* returns
non-NULL pointer even if size is 0, the code would end up walking
through random memory. If we were lucky enough and the memory contained
7 (VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING) at the right place, we would try to free a
random pointer and crash.
Let's make sure params stays NULL when nparams is 0.

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
WITH_INTERFACE is not defined, it should be WITH_NETCF there to load
the interface driver.
Eric posted patch weeks ago to resolve the problems in the whole
build system, but it's not finalised yet:

I'm going to simply fix the wrong macro name here so that the

When using libnl, use the variables pkg-config provides in case there are
additional libraries or CFLAGS required to build it. Specifically if
the libnl headers are not directly in /usr/include.
When running directly from GIT, libvirtd attempts to locate
the directory containing loadable modules. This currently
only works if executing libvirtd with a CWD inside the libvirt
source tree. Switch to locate based on the path to the current
binary instead

Use XDG Base Directories instead of storing in home directory
Accidentally changed the umask when creating /var/run/libvirt
to 077. This prevents /var/run/libvirt being readable by non-root,
which is required for non-root to connect to libvirtd. Fix the
code so that umask 077 is only used for the non-privileged libvirtd
instance.
Only the non-privileged libvirtd instance uses $HOME. So avoid
running the code for migrating to XDG directories unless using
a non-privileged libvirtd
Commit 1c275e9a accidentally dropped the storage driver from
libvirtd, because it depended on a C preprocessor macro that
was not defined. Furthermore, if you do './configure
--without-storage-dir --with-storage-disk' or any other combination
where you explicitly build a subset of storage backends excluding
the dir backend, then the build is broken.
Based on analysis by Osier Yang.
* configure.ac (WITH_STORAGE): Define top-level conditional.
* src/Makefile.am (mod_LTLIBRARIES): Build driver even when
storage_dir is disabled.
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Pick up storage driver for any backend, not
just dir.
* daemon/Makefile.am (libvirtd_LDADD): Likewise.
Some of our rules used $(PERL), while others used 'perl'. Always
using the variable allows a developer to point to a different (often
better) perl than the default one found on $PATH.
* daemon/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/remote_dispatch.h): s/perl/$(PERL).
* src/Makefile.am ($(srcdir)/remote/remote_client_bodies.h)
(PDWTAGS, %protocol.c, %_probes.stp): Likewise.
Without this fix, a VPATH build (such as used by ./autobuild.sh)
fails with messages like:
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/remote/eblake/libvirt-tmp2/build/daemon'
../../build-aux/augeas-gentest.pl libvirtd.conf ../../daemon/test_libvirtd.aug.in test_libvirtd.aug
cannot read libvirtd.conf: No such file or directory at ../../build-aux/augeas-gentest.pl line 38.
Since the test files are not part of the tarball, we can generate
them into the build dir, but rather than create a subdirectory
just for the test file, it is easier to test them directly in
libvirt.git/src.
* daemon/Makefile.am (AUG_GENTEST): Factor out definition.
(test_libvirtd.aug): Look for correct file.
* src/Makefile.am (AUG_GENTEST): Use $(PERL).
(qemu/test_libvirtd_qemu.aug, lxc/test_libvirtd_lxc.aug)
(locking/test_libvirt_sanlock.aug): Rename to avoid subdirectories.
(check-augeas-qemu, check-augeas-lxc, check-augeas-sanlock): Reflect
location of built tests.
* configure.ac (PERL): Substitute perl.
There was no rule forcing libvirt_qemu_probes.o to be built
before libvirt_qemu_probes.lo was used. Also libvirtd was
still referencing the .o file, rather than the .lo file.
Both the .lo and .o file must be listed as DEPENDENCIES,
otherwise libtool will unhelpfully delete the .o file
once the .lo file is created.

The driver modules all use symbols which are defined in libvirt.so.
Thus for loading of modules to work, the binary that libvirt.so
is linked to must export its symbols back to modules. If the
libvirt.so itself is dlopen()d then the RTLD_GLOBAL flag must
be set. Unfortunately few, if any, programming languages use
the RTLD_GLOBAL flag when loading modules :-( This means is it
not practical to use driver modules for any libvirt client side
drivers (OpenVZ, VMWare, Hyper-V, Remote client, test).
This patch changes the build process so only server side drivers
are built as modules (Xen, QEMU, LXC, UML)

This offers a number of advantages:
* Allows sharing a home directory between different machines, or
sessions (eg. using NFS)
* Cleanly separates cache, runtime (eg. sockets), or app data from
user settings
* Supports performing smart or selective migration of settings
between different OS versions
* Supports reseting settings without breaking things
* Makes it possible to clear cache data to make room when the disk
is filling up
* Allows us to write a robust and efficient backup solution
* Allows an admin flexibility to change where data and settings are stored
* Dramatically reduces the complexity and incoherence of the

DBus connection. The HAL device code further requires that
the DBus connection is integrated with the event loop and
provides such glue logic itself.
The forthcoming FirewallD integration also requires a
dbus connection with event loop integration. Thus we need
to pull the current event loop glue out of the HAL driver.
Thus we create src/util/virdbus.{c,h} files. This contains
just one method virDBusGetSystemBus() which obtains a handle
to the single shared system bus instance, with event glue
automagically setup.
