Previously the uid/gid/mode in the xml was ignored when creating new
storage pool directories. This commit attempts to honor the requested
permissions, and spits out an error if it can't.
Note that when creating the directory, the rest of the path leading up
to the final element is created using current uid/gid/mode, and the
final element gets the settings from xml. It is NOT an error for the
directory to already exist; in this case, the perms for the existing
directory are just set (if necessary).
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: update the virStorageBackendFileSystemBuild
function to check the directory hierarchy separately then create the
leaf directory with the right attributes
In order to avoid problems trying to chown files that were created by
root on a root-squashing nfs server, fork a new process that setuid's
to the desired uid before creating the file. (It's only done this way
if the pool containing the new volume is of type 'netfs', otherwise
the old method of creating the file followed by chown() is used.)
This changes the semantics of the "create_func" slightly - previously
it was assumed that this function just created the file, then the
caller would chown it to the desired uid. Now, create_func does both
operations.
There are multiple functions that can take on the role of create_func:
createFileDir - previously called mkdir(), now calls virDirCreate().
virStorageBackendCreateRaw - previously called open(),
now calls virFileCreate().
virStorageBackendCreateQemuImg - use virRunWithHook() to setuid/gid.
virStorageBackendCreateQcowCreate - same.
virStorageBackendCreateBlockFrom - preserve old behavior (but attempt
chown when necessary even if not root)
* src/storage/storage_backend.[ch] src/storage/storage_backend_disk.c
src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c
src/storage/storage_driver.c: change the create_func implementations,
also propagate the pool information to be able to detect NETFS ones.
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c (virStorageBackendFileSystemRefresh):
Correct parentheses. The documented intent is to ignore non-regular
files, yet due to a parenthesization error all errors were handled
that way.
This patch removes the call to vol update after the volume build completes.
The update call is currently meaningless anyway because the vol build is passed
a copy of the definition, so the update result is thrown away. More
importantly, if the user specified a selinux label for the volume, the update
call results in a double free of the label
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: remove the update call
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: virStorageBackendFileSystemDelete
was incorrectly calling unlink() in an attempt to remove a directory.
It should be calling rmdir() instead.
Finally, we get to the point of all this.
Move virStorageGetMetadataFromFD() to virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD()
and move to src/util/storage_file.[ch]
There's no functional changes in this patch, just code movement
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: move code from here ...
* src/util/storage_file.[ch]: ... to here
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD()
Introduce a metadata structure and make virStorageGetMetadataFromFD()
fill it in.
* src/util/storage_file.h: add virStorageFileMetadata
* src/backend/storage_backend_fs.c: virStorageGetMetadataFromFD() now
fills in the virStorageFileMetadata structure
Prepare the code probing a file's format and associated metadata for
moving into libvirt_util.
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: re-factor the format and metadata
probing code in preparation for moving it
Rename virStorageVolFormatFileSystem to virStorageFileFormat and
move to src/util/storage_file.[ch]
* src/Makefile.am: add src/util/storage_file.[ch]
* src/conf/storage_conf.[ch]: move enum from here ...
* src/util/storage_file.[ch]: .. to here
* src/libvirt_private.syms: update To/FromString exports
* src/storage/storage_backend.c, src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c,
src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: update for above changes
