With this patch I want to enable hex number inputs in the filter XML. A
number that was entered as hex is also printed as hex unless a string
representing the meaning can be found.
I am also extending the schema and adding a test case. A problem with
the DSCP value is fixed on the way as well.
Changes from V1 to V2:
- using asHex boolean in all printf type of functions to select the
output format in hex or decimal format
We were freeing the virDomainSnapshotDefPtr, but not

I am moving some of the eb/iptables related functions into the interface
of the firewall driver and am making them only accessible via the driver's
interface. Otherwise exsiting code is adapted where needed. I am adding one
new function to the interface that checks whether the 'basic' rules can be
applied, which will then be used by a subsequent patch.
I am getting rid of determining the path to necessary CLI tools at
compile time. Instead, now the firewall driver has an initialization
function that uses virFindFileInPath() to determine the path to
necessary CLI tools and a shutdown function to free allocated memory.
The rest of the patch mostly deals with availability of the CLI tools
and to not call certain code blocks if a tool is not available and that
strings now have to be built slightly differently.
In a couple of cases typos meant we were firing the wrong type
of event. In the python code my previous commit accidentally
missed some chunks of the code.

This patch implements support for learning a VM's IP address. It uses
the pcap library to listen on the VM's backend network interface (tap)
or the physical ethernet device (macvtap) and tries to capture packets
with source or destination MAC address of the VM and learn from DHCP
Offers, ARP traffic, or first-sent IPv4 packet what the IP address of
the VM's interface is. This then allows to instantiate the network
traffic filtering rules without the user having to provide the IP
parameter somewhere in the filter description or in the interface
description as a parameter. This only supports to detect the parameter
IP, which is for the assumed single IPv4 address of a VM. There is not
support for interfaces that may have multiple IP addresses (IP
aliasing) or IPv6 that may then require more than one valid IP address
to be detected. A VM can have multiple independent interfaces that each
uses a different IP address and in that case it will be attempted to
detect each one of the address independently.
So, when for example an interface description in the domain XML has
looked like this up to now:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'>
<parameter name='IP' value='10.2.3.4'/>
</filterref>
</interface>
you may omit the IP parameter:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'/>
</interface>
Internally I am walking the 'tree' of a VM's referenced network filters
and determine with the given variables which variables are missing. Now,
the above IP parameter may be missing and this causes a libvirt-internal
thread to be started that uses the pcap library's API to listen to the
backend interface (in case of macvtap to the physical interface) in an
attempt to determine the missing IP parameter. If the backend interface
disappears the thread terminates assuming the VM was brought down. In
case of a macvtap device a timeout is being used to wait for packets
from the given VM (filtering by VM's interface MAC address). If the VM's
macvtap device disappeared the thread also terminates. In all other
cases it tries to determine the IP address of the VM and will then apply
the rules late on the given interface, which would have happened
immediately if the IP parameter had been explicitly given. In case an
error happens while the firewall rules are applied, the VM's backend
interface is 'down'ed preventing it to communicate. Reasons for failure
for applying the network firewall rules may that an ebtables/iptables
command failes or OOM errors. Essentially the same failure reasons may
occur as when the firewall rules are applied immediately on VM start,
except that due to the late application of the filtering rules the VM
now is already running and cannot be hindered anymore from starting.
Bringing down the whole VM would probably be considered too drastic.
While a VM's IP address is attempted to be determined only limited
updates to network filters are allowed. In particular it is prevented
that filters are modified in such a way that they would introduce new
variables.
A caveat: The algorithm does not know which one is the appropriate IP
address of a VM. If the VM spoofs an IP address in its first ARP traffic
or IPv4 packets its filtering rules will be instantiated for this IP
address, thus 'locking' it to the found IP address. So, it's still
'safer' to explicitly provide the IP address of a VM's interface in the
filter description if it is known beforehand.

While playing around with def/newDef with the qemu code,
I noticed that newDef was *always* getting set to a value,
even when I didn't redefine the domain. I think the problem
is the virDomainLoadConfig is always doing virDomainAssignDef
regardless of whether the domain already exists in the hashtable.
In turn, virDomainAssignDef is assigning the definition (which
is actually a duplicate) to newDef. Fix this so that newDef stays
NULL until we actually have a new def.

values. Rather use the strspn() function. Along with this cleanup the
initialization function for the code that used the regular expression
can also be removed.
- ebtables requires that some of the command line parameters are passed as hex numbers; so have those attributes call a function that prints 16 and 8 bit integers as hex nunbers.
- ip6tables requires '--icmpv6-type' rather than '--icmp-type'
- ebtables complains about protocol identifiers lower than 0x600, so already discard anything lower than 0x600 in the parser
- make the protocol entry types more readable using a #define for its entries
- continue parsing a filtering rule even if a faulty entry is encountered; return an error value at the end and let the caller decide what to do with the rule's object
- fix an error message
The clock timer XML is being updated in the following ways (based on
further off-list discussion that was missed during the initial
implementation):
1) 'wallclock' is changed to 'track', and the possible values are 'boot'
(corresponds to old 'host'), 'guest', and 'wall'.
2) 'mode' has an additional value 'smpsafe'
3) when tickpolicy='catchup', there can be an optional sub-element of
timer called 'catchup':
<catchup threshold=123 slew=120 limit=10000/>
Those three values are all longs, always optional, and if they are present,
they are positive. Internally, 0 indicates "unspecified".
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: updated RNG definition to account for changes
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: change the C struct and enums to match changes.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c: timer parse and format functions changed to
handle the new selections and new element.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: *TimerWallclock* changes to *TimerTrack*
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: again, account for Wallclock --> Track change.

found some cases where the output ended up not looking as expected. So
the following changes are in the patch below:
- if the protocol ID in the MAC header is an integer, just write it into
the datastructure without trying to find a corresponding string for it
and if none is found failing
- when writing the protocol ID as string, simply write it as integer if
no corresponding string can be found
- same changes for arpOpcode parsing and printing
- same changes for protocol ID in an IP packet
- DSCP value needs to be written into the data structure
- IP protocol version number is redundant at this level, so remove it
- parse the protocol ID found inside an IP packet not only as string but
also as uint8
- arrange the display of the src and destination masks to be shown after
the src and destination ip address respectively in the XML
- the existing libvirt IP address parser accepts for example '25' as an
IP address. I want this to be parsed as a CIDR type netmask. So try to
parse it as an integer first (CIDR netmask) and if that doesn't work as
a dotted IP address style netmask.
- instantiation of rules with MAC masks didn't work because they weren't
printed into a buffer, yet.

Add missing source to the proxy and disable XML parsing code in
nwfilter_params.c for a proxy build.
Check that interface names only contain valid characters. Blank them out
otherwise.
Valid characters in this code are currently a-z,A-Z,0-9, '-' and '_'.
This patch changes the network filtering code to use libvirt's existing
IPv4 and IPv6 address parsers/printers rather than my self-written ones.
I am introducing a new function in network.c that counts the number of
bits in a netmask and ensures that the given address is indeed a netmask,
return -1 on error or values of 0-32 for IPv4 addresses and 0-128 for
IPv6 addresses. I then based the function checking for valid netmask
on invoking this function.
This patch adds IPv6 filtering support for the following protocols:
- tcp-ipv6
- udp-ipv6
- udplite-ipv6
- esp-ipv6
- ah-ipv6
- sctp-ipv6
- all-ipv6
- icmpv6
Many of the IPv4 data structure could be re-used for IPv6 support.
Since ip6tables also supports pretty much the same command line parameters
as iptables does, also much of the code could be re-used and now
command lines are invoked with the ip(6)tables tool parameter passed
through the functions as a parameter.
This patch removes the driver dependency from nwfilter_conf.c and moves
a callback function calling into the driver into
nwfilter_gentech_driver.c and passes a pointer to that callback function
upon initialization of nwfilter_conf.c.

Currently all attributes are optional, except name.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h: add data definition for virDomainTimerDef

* src/libvirt_private.syms: add new Timer enum helper functions to symbols
This patch fixes the 'make check' runs for me which, under certain
circumstances and login configurations, did invoke popups requesting
authentication. I removed the parameter conn from being passed into the
error reporting function.
* src/conf/nwfilter_conf.h src/conf/nwfilter_conf.c: remove conn from
error reporting parameters.
When a domain is defined on host1, migrated to host2 and then migrated
back to host1, its current configuration would overwrite the libvirtd's
in-memory copy of persistent configuration of that domain. This is not
desired as we want to preserve the persistent configuration untouched.
This patch introduces new 'live' parameter to virDomainAssignDef.
Passing 'true' for 'live' means the configuration passed to
virDomainAssignDef describes a configuration of live instance of the
domain. This applies for saved domains which are being restored or for
incoming domains during migration.
All callers have been changed to pass the appropriate value.
* Fixes per feedback from Dan and Daniel
* Added test datafiles
* Re-disabled JSON flags
* Added code to print the error policy attribute when generating XML
