a4fd740561 Don't assume use of /sys/fs/cgroup
The introduction of /sys/fs/cgroup came in fairly recent kernels.
Prior to that time distros would pick a custom directory like
/cgroup or /dev/cgroup. We need to auto-detect where this is,
rather than hardcoding it

ccaf0beec8 build: improved handling of <execinfo.h>, BSD <net/if.h>
FreeBSD and OpenBSD have a <net/if.h> that is not self-contained;
and mingw lacks the header altogether.  But gnulib has just taken
care of that for us, so we might as well simplify our code.  In
the process, I got a syntax-check failure if we don't also take
the gnulib execinfo module.

* .gnulib: Update to latest, for execinfo and net_if.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add execinfo and net_if modules.
* configure.ac: Let gnulib check for headers.  Simplify check for
'struct ifreq', while also including enough prereq headers.
* src/internal.h (IF_NAMESIZE): Drop, now that gnulib guarantees it.
* src/nwfilter/nwfilter_learnipaddr.h: Use correct header for
IF_NAMESIZE.

98e732fc34 network: prevent infinite hang if ovs-vswitchd isn't running
This fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=852984

If a network or interface is configured to use Open vSwitch, but
ovs-vswitchd (the Open vSwitch database service) isn't running, the
ovs-vsctl add-port/del-port commands will hang indefinitely rather
than returning an error. There is a --nowait option, but that appears
to have no effect on add-port and del-port commands, so instead we add
a --timeout=5 to the commands - they will retry for up to 5 seconds,
then fail if there is no response.

3044433f29 Fix issue of PF brought down if VF is 8021.Qbh and pci passthrough
If a 8021.Qbh network device supports SRIOV and its VF is being used
in pci passthrough mode, when the guest is shutdown or destroyed, the
PF inteface is also brought down. qemuDomainHostdevNetConfigRestore()
finds out the PF for provided hostdev (which is VF) and passes it to
virNetDevPortProfileDisassociate() as linkdev. Later, linkdev gets passed
to virNetDevSetOnline() where the interface is brought down by clearing
IFF_UP flag.

Bringing down a PF, when only VF is being brought down is not expected
behavior. This patch adds a check so that virNetDevSetOnline() is called
only for PF and not if device is a VF.

0b4b53bb80 build: work with older libnl1 headers
Ubuntu 10.04 shipped with out-of-the-box libnl1 headers, which
assumed the old gcc semantics of 'extern inline' as a C89 extension:
the function will _always_ be inline if it is used, and that
it may be declared extern inline in headers without a definition,
as long as the definition occurs before any use.  But when C99
added 'extern inline' as a mandatory feature of the language, with
slightly different semantics than gcc (the function MUST have
external linkage, and the inline definition MUST be present
alongside any declaration, where the compiler can then choose
which of the two versions to use), this rendered the use of
'inline' in libnl's header obsolete.  Most distros already solved
this by removing 'inline' (the resulting 'extern' is correct,
regardless of gcc semantics), and libnl-3 does not have the
problem (where it has switched to 'static inline' instead, again
with the definition present, and again, our hack will result in
plain 'static' with no ill effects).  But for the case of building
out of the box, we hack around the broken Ubuntu header.

Several VIR_DEBUG()'s were changed to VIR_WARN() while I was testing

being used (firewall-cmd vs. (eb|ip)tables) without needing to crank
logging to 11. (at most this adds 2 lines to libvirtd's logs per

bf76174bac atomic: mark header functions static
When gcc atomic intrinsics are not available (such as on RHEL 5
with gcc 4.1.2), we were getting link errors due to multiple
definitions:

./.libs/libvirt_util.a(libvirt_util_la-virobject.o): In function `virAtomicIntXor':
/home/dummy/l,ibvirt/src/util/viratomoic.h:404: multiple definition of `virAtomicIntXor'
./.libs/libvirt_util.a(libvirt_util_la-viratomic.o):/home/dummy/libvirt/src/util/viratomic.h:404: first defined here

Solve this by conditionally marking the functions static (the
condition avoids falling foul of gcc warnings about unused
static function declarations).

functions to avoid linker errors on duplicate functions.

bf156385a0 network: use firewalld instead of iptables, when available
* configure.ac, spec file: firewalld defaults to enabled if dbus is
  available, otherwise is disabled. If --with_firewalld is explicitly
  requested and dbus is not available, configure will fail.

* bridge_driver: add dbus filters to get the FirewallD1.Reloaded
  signal and DBus.NameOwnerChanged on org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.
  When these are encountered, reload all the iptables reuls of all
  libvirt's virtual networks (similar to what happens when libvirtd is
  restarted).

* iptables, ebtables: use firewall-cmd's direct passthrough interface
  when available, otherwise use iptables and ebtables commands. This
  decision is made once the first time libvirt calls
  iptables/ebtables, and that decision is maintained for the life of
  libvirtd.

* Note that the nwfilter part of this patch was separated out into
  another patch by Stefan in V2, so that needs to be revised and
  re-reviewed as well.

================

All the configure.ac and specfile changes are unchanged from Thomas'
V3.

V3 re-ran "firewall-cmd --state" every time a new rule was added,
which was extremely inefficient.  V4 uses VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT to set
up a one-time initialization function.

The VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT(x) macro references a static function called
vir(Ip|Eb)OnceInit(), which will then be called the first time that
the static function vir(Ip|Eb)TablesInitialize() is called (that
function is defined for you by the macro). This is
thread-safe, so there is no chance of any race.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I've left the VIR_DEBUG messages in these two init
functions (one for iptables, on for ebtables) as VIR_WARN so that I
don't have to turn on all the other debug message just to see
these. Even if this patch doesn't need any other modification, those
messages need to be changed to VIR_DEBUG before pushing.

This one-time initialization works well. However, I've encountered
problems with testing:

1) Whenever I have enabled the firewalld service, *all* attempts to
call firewall-cmd from within libvirtd end with firewall-cmd hanging
internally somewhere. This is *not* the case if firewall-cmd returns
non-0 in response to "firewall-cmd --state" (i.e. *that* command runs
and returns to libvirt successfully.)

2) If I start libvirtd while firewalld is stopped, then start
firewalld later, this triggers libvirtd to reload its iptables rules,
however it also spits out a *ton* of complaints about deletion failing
(I suppose because firewalld has nuked all of libvirt's rules). I
guess we need to suppress those messages (which is a more annoying
problem to fix than you might think, but that's another story).

3) I noticed a few times during this long line of errors that
firewalld made a complaint about "Resource Temporarily
unavailable. Having libvirtd access iptables commands directly at the
same time as firewalld is doing so is apparently problematic.

4) In general, I'm concerned about the "set it once and never change
it" method - if firewalld is disabled at libvirtd startup, causing
libvirtd to always use iptables/ebtables directly, this won't cause
*terrible* problems, but if libvirtd decides to use firewall-cmd and
firewalld is later disabled, libvirtd will not be able to recover.

1193fc5f44 libssh2_transport: add main libssh2 transport implementation
This patch adds helper functions that enable us to use libssh2 in
conjunction with libvirt's virNetSockets for ssh transport instead of
spawning "ssh" client process.

This implemetation supports tunneled plaintext, keyboard-interactive,
private key, ssh agent based and null authentication. Libvirt's Auth
callback is used for interaction with the user. (Keyboard interactive
authentication, adding of host keys, private key passphrases). This
enables seamless integration into the application using libvirt. No
helpers as "ssh-askpass" are needed.

Reading and writing of OpenSSH style "known_hosts" files is supported.

Communication is done using SSH exec channel, where the user may specify
arbitrary command to be executed on the remote side and reads and writes
to/from stdin/out are sent through the ssh channel. Usage of stderr is
not (yet) supported.

e979226ba2 util: properly save/restore original vlan tag for VFs
When a network device that is a VF of an SR-IOV card was assigned to a
guest using <interface type='hostdev'>, only the MAC address was being
saved/restored, but the VLAN tag was left untouched. Up to now we
haven't actually used vlan tags on SR-IOV devices, so the guest would
have used whatever was set, and left it the same at the end.

The patch following this one will hook up the <vlan> element from the
interface config, so save/restore of the device state needs to also
include the vlan tag.

MAC address is being saved as a simple ASCII string in a file named
for the device under /var/run.  The VLAN tag is now just added at the
end of that file, after a newline. It might be nicer if the file was
XML (in case it ever gets more complicated) but at the moment there's
nothing else on the horizon, and this makes backward compatibility
easier.

1c02ed1421 util: utility functions for virNetDevVPortProfile
This patch adds three utility functions that operate on
virNetDevVPortProfile objects.

* virNetDevVPortProfileCheckComplete() - verifies that all attributes
    required for the type of the given virtport are specified.

* virNetDevVPortProfileCheckNoExtras() - verifies that there are no
    attributes specified which are inappropriate for the type of the
    given virtport.

* virNetDevVPortProfileMerge3() - merges 3 virtports into a single,
    newly allocated virtport. If any attributes are specified in
    more than one of the three sources, and do not exactly match,
    an error is logged and the function fails.

These new functions depend on new fields in the virNetDevVPortProfile
object that keep track of whether or not each attribute was
specified. Since the higher level parse function doesn't yet set those
fields, these functions are not actually usable yet (but that's okay,
because they also aren't yet used - all of that functionality comes in
a later patch.)

Note that these three functions return 0 on success and -1 on
failure. This may seem odd for the first two Check functions, since
they could also easily return true/false, but since they actually log
an error when the requested condition isn't met (and should result in
a failure of the calling function), I thought 0/-1 was more
appropriate.

8450d7b20c util: add openvswitch case to virNetDevVPortProfileEqual
This function was overlooked when openvswitch support was
added. Fortunately it's only use for update-device, which is
relatively new and seldom-used.

21ea73e8f4 util: eliminate union in virNetDevVPortProfile
virNetDevVPortProfile has (had) a type field that can be set to one of
several values, and a union of several structs, one for each
type. When a domain's interface object is of type "network", the
domain config may not know beforehand which type of virtualport is
going to be provided in the actual device handed down from the network
driver at runtime, but may want to set some values in the virtualport
that may or may not be used, depending on the type. To support this
usage, this patch replaces the union of structs with toplevel fields
in the struct, making it possible for all of the fields to be set at
the same time.

85d9c17d70 util: make return value of virUUIDFormat and virMacAddrFormat useful
Both of these functions returned void, but it's convenient for them to
return a const char* of the char* that is passed in. This was you can
call the function and use the result in the same expression/arg.

aa5bd8b9b9 Add virRandom() API to generate numbers with non-power-of-2 limit
The current virRandomBits() API is only usable if the caller wants
a random number in the range [0, n-1) where n is a power of two.
This adds a virRandom() API which generates a double in the
range [0.0,1.0) with 48 bits of entropy. It then also adds a
virRandomInt(uint32_t max) API which generates an unsigned
in the range [0,@max)
