Extracting capabilities from QEMU takes a notable amount of time
when all QEMU binaries are installed. Each system emulator
needs about 200-300ms multiplied by 26 binaries == ~5-8 seconds.
This change causes the QEMU driver to save an XML file containing
the content of the virQEMUCaps object instance in the cache
dir eg /var/cache/libvirt/qemu/capabilities/$SHA256(binarypath).xml
or $HOME/.cache/libvirt/qemu/cache/capabilities/$SHA256(binarypath).xml
We attempt to load this and only if it fails, do we fallback to
probing the QEMU binary. The ctime of the QEMU binary and libvirtd
are stored in the cached file and its data discarded if either
of them change.

Debian's package manager will preserve mtime timestamp on binaries
from the time they are built, rather than installed. So if a
user downgrades their QEMU dpkg, the libvirt capabilities
cache will not refresh. The fix is to use ctime instead of mtime
since it cannot be faked.

The future QEMU capabilities cache needs to be able to invalidate
itself if the libvirtd binary or any loadable modules are changed
on disk. Record the 'ctime' value for these binaries and provide
helper APIs to query it. This approach assumes that if libvirt.so
is changed, then libvirtd will also change, which should usually
be the case with libtool's wrapper scripts that cause libvirtd to
get re-linked

This fixes a possible double free. In virNetworkAssignDef() if
virBitmapNew() fails, then virNetworkObjFree(network) is called.
However, with network->def pointing to actual @def. So if caller
frees @def again, ...
Moreover, this fixes one possible memory leak too. In
virInterfaceAssignDef() if appending to the list of interfaces
fails, we ought to call virInterfaceObjFree() instead of bare
VIR_FREE().
Although, in order to do that some array size variables needs
to be turned into size_t rather than int.

The nwfilter conf update mutex previously serialized
updates to the internal data structures for firewall
rules, and updates to the firewall itself. The latter
was recently turned into a read/write lock, and filter
instantiation allowed to proceed in parallel. It was
believed that this was ok, since each filter is created
on a separate iptables/ebtables chain.
It turns out that there is a subtle lock ordering problem
on virNWFilterObjPtr instances. __virNWFilterInstantiateFilter
will hold a lock on the virNWFilterObjPtr it is instantiating.
This in turn invokes virNWFilterInstantiate which then invokes
virNWFilterDetermineMissingVarsRec which then invokes
virNWFilterObjFindByName. This iterates over every single
virNWFilterObjPtr in the list, locking them and checking their
name. So if 2 or more threads try to instantiate a filter in
parallel, they'll all hold 1 lock at the top level in the
__virNWFilterInstantiateFilter method which will cause the
other thread to deadlock in virNWFilterObjFindByName.
The fix is to add an exclusive mutex to serialize the
execution of __virNWFilterInstantiateFilter.

When domain is started with setting that cannot be done, i.e. those
that require cgroups, there is no error reported and it succeeds
without any message whatsoever.
When setting with API, virsh, an error is reported, but only due to
the fact that no cgroups are mounted (priv->cgroup == NULL).
Given the above it seems reasonable to reject such unsupported
settings.
This patch effectively changes the error message from:
$ virsh -c qemu:///session schedinfo dummy
Scheduler : Unknown
error: Requested operation is not valid: cgroup CPU controller is not mounted
to:
$ virsh -c qemu:///session schedinfo dummy
Scheduler : Unknown

The qemuMonitorJSONBlockJob handles a few errors internally. If qemu
returns a different error we would report a rather unhelpful message:
$ virsh blockpull gluster-job vda --base /dev/null
error: internal error: Unexpected error
As the actual message from qemu contains a bit more info, let's use it
to report something a little more useful:
$ virsh blockpull gluster-job vda --base /dev/null
error: internal error: Unexpected error: (GenericError) 'Base '/dev/null' not found'
In storageVolLookupByPath the provided path is "sanitized" at first.
This removes some extra slashes and stuff. When the lookup of the volume
fails the original path is used which makes it hard to trace errors in
some cases.
Improve the error message to print the sanitized path along with the
user provided path if they are not equal.
When looking up a volume by path on a non-local filesystem don't use the
"cleaned" path that might be mangled in such a way that it will differ
from a path provided by a storage backend.
Skip the cleanup step for gluster, sheepdog and RBD.
Pools that are not backed by files in the filesystem cause problems with
some APIs. Error out when attempting to upload a volume in such a pool
as currently we expect a local file representation for it.
use_apparmor() was first designed to be called from withing libvirtd,
but libvirt_lxc also uses it. in libvirt_lxc, there is no need to check

Also a comment states that only qemu-kvm tree includes the thread_id

The old semantics of virFork() violates the priciple of good
usability: it requires the caller to check the pid argument
after use, *even when virFork returned -1*, in order to properly
abort a child process that failed setup done immediately after
fork() - that is, the caller must call _exit() in the child.
While uses in virfile.c did this correctly, uses in 'virsh
lxc-enter-namespace' and 'virt-login-shell' would happily return
from the calling function in both the child and the parent,
leading to very confusing results. [Thankfully, I found the
problem by inspection, and can't actually trigger the double
return on error without an LD_PRELOAD library.]
It is much better if the semantics of virFork are impossible
to abuse. Looking at virFork(), the parent could only ever
return -1 with a non-negative pid if it misused pthread_sigmask,
but this never happens. Up until this patch series, the child
could return -1 with non-negative pid if it fails to set up
signals correctly, but we recently fixed that to make the child
call _exit() at that point instead of forcing the caller to do
it. Thus, the return value and contents of the pid argument are
now redundant (a -1 return now happens only for failure to fork,
a child 0 return only happens for a successful 0 pid, and a
parent 0 return only happens for a successful non-zero pid),
so we might as well return the pid directly rather than an
integer of whether it succeeded or failed; this is also good
from the interface design perspective as users are already
familiar with fork() semantics.
One last change in this patch: before returning the pid directly,
I found cases where using virProcessWait unconditionally on a
cleanup path of a virFork's -1 pid return would be nicer if there
were a way to avoid it overwriting an earlier message. While
such paths are a bit harder to come by with my change to a direct
pid return, I decided to keep the virProcessWait change in this
patch.

Auditing all callers of virCommandRun and virCommandWait that
passed a non-NULL pointer for exit status turned up some
interesting observations. Many callers were merely passing
a pointer to avoid the overall command dying, but without
caring what the exit status was - but these callers would
be better off treating a child death by signal as an abnormal
exit. Other callers were actually acting on the status, but
not all of them remembered to filter by WIFEXITED and convert
with WEXITSTATUS; depending on the platform, this can result
in a status being reported as 256 times too big. And among
those that correctly parse the output, it gets rather verbose.
Finally, there were the callers that explicitly checked that
the status was 0, and gave their own message, but with fewer
details than what virCommand gives for free.
So the best idea is to move the complexity out of callers and
into virCommand - by default, we return the actual exit status
already cleaned through WEXITSTATUS and treat signals as a
failed command; but the few callers that care can ask for raw
status and act on it themselves.

Right now, a caller waiting for a child process either requires
the child to have status 0, or must use WIFEXITED() and friends
itself. But in many cases, we want the middle ground of treating
fatal signals as an error, and directly accessing the normal exit
value without having to use WEXITSTATUS(), in order to easily
detect an expected non-zero exit status. This adds the middle
ground to the low-level virProcessWait; the next patch will add
it to virCommand.

The documentation of namespace callbacks was inconsistent on whether
it preserved positive return values. Now that we have a dedicated
EXIT_CANCELED to flag all errors before getting to the callback,
it is possible to use positive return values (not that any of the
current callers do, but it is better to match the docs).
Also, while vircommand.c is careful to close fds that a child should
not have, it's still better to be in the practice of setting
FD_CLOEXEC up front.
