This patch updates virGetUserID and virGetGroupID to be able to parse a
user or group name in a similar way to coreutils' chown. This means that
a numeric value with a leading plus sign is always parsed as an ID,
otherwise the functions try to parse the input first as a user or group
name and if this fails they try to parse it as an ID.
This patch includes Peter Krempa's changes to correctly handle errors
returned by getpwnam_r and getgrnam_r.
curl_global_init is not thread-safe. curl_easy_init might call
curl_global_init when it was no called before. But curl_easy_init
can be called from different threads by the ESX driver. Therefore,
call curl_global_init from virInitialize to stop curl_easy_init from
calling it.

When both kvmclock and kvm_pv_eoi are configured (either disabled or
enabled) libvirt will generate invalid CPU specification due to the
fact that even though kvmclock causes the CPU to be specified, it
doesn't set have_cpu flag to true (and the new kvm_pv_eoi as well).
This patch fixes the issue and adds a test exactly for that to show
that it is fixed correctly (and also to keep it that way in the future
of course).
libvirt_ulonglongUnwrap requires the integer type of python obj.
But libvirt_longlongUnwrap still could handle python obj of
Pyfloat_type which causes the float value to be rounded up
to an integer.
For example
>>> dom.setSchedulerParameters({'vcpu_quota': 0.88})
0
libvirt_longlongUnwrap treats 0.88 as a valid value 0
However
>>> dom.setSchedulerParameters({'cpu_shares': 1000.22})
libvirt_ulonglongUnwrap will throw out an error
"TypeError: an integer is required"
The patch make this consistent.

libcurl uses a SIGALRM in combination with sigsetjmp/siglongjmp to be
able to abort a DNS lookup when it takes too long. The problem with this
in a multi-threaded application is that the signal handler for SIGALRM
and the call to siglongjmp can be executed on a thread that is different
from the one that initially did the SIGALRM setup and the call to
sigsetjmp. In the reported case this triggered a segfault.
Disable libcurl's use of signals to avoid this situation. This has the
disadvantage of losing the ability to abort synchronous DNS lookups which
might result in libcurl getting stuck in a DNS lookup in the worst case.
When libcurl was build with an asynchronous DNS backend such as c-ares
then there is no problem because the timeout mechanism works without
signals here anyway.

* .gnulib: Update to latest, for gcc 4.2 support and fixed FreeBSD tests.
The DAC driver is missing parsing of group and user names for DAC labels
and currently just parses uid and gid. This patch extends it to support
names, so the following security label definition is now valid:
<seclabel type='static' model='dac' relabel='yes'>
<label>qemu:qemu</label>
<imagelabel>qemu:qemu</imagelabel>
</seclabel>
When it tries to parse an owner or a group, it first tries to resolve it as
a name, if it fails or it's an invalid user/group name then it tries to
parse it as an UID or GID. A leading '+' can also be used for both owner and
group to force it to be parsed as IDs, so the following example is also
valid:
<seclabel type='static' model='dac' relabel='yes'>
<label>+101:+101</label>
<imagelabel>+101:+101</imagelabel>
</seclabel>
This ensures that UID 101 and GUI 101 will be used instead of an user or
group named "101".
Commit c579d6b added a sledgehammer to silence spurious warnings from

Since libvirt switched to QMP capabilities probing recently, it starts
QEMU process used for this probing with -daemonize, which means
virCommandAbort can no longer reach these processes. As a result of
that, restarting libvirtd will leave several new QEMU processes behind.
Let's use QEMU's -pidfile and use it to kill the process when QMP caps
probing is done.
When doing snapshots, the filesystem freeze function used the agent
entering function that expects the qemud_driver unlocked. This might
cause a deadlock of the qemu driver if the agent does not respond.
The only call path of this function has the qemud_driver locked, so this
patch changes the entering functions to those expecting the driver
locked.
There was an inverted return value in lxcCgroupControllerActive().
The function assumes cgroups are active and do couple of checks
to prove that. If any of them fails, false is returned. Therefore,
at the end, after all checks are done we must return true, not false.
Commit f6430390 broke builds on RHEL 5, where glibc (2.5) is too
old to support mkostemp (2.7) or htole64 (2.9). While gnulib
has mkostemp, it still lacks htole64; and it's not worth dragging
in replacements on systems where journald is unlikely to exist
in the first place, so we just use an extra configure-time check
as our witness of whether to attempt compiling the code.
* src/util/logging.c (virLogParseOutputs): Don't attempt to
compile journald on older glibc.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_DECLS): Check for htole64.
Several people have reported that if the .gnulib submodule is dirty,
then 'make' will go into an infinite loop attempting to rerun bootstrap,
because that never cleans up the dirty submodule. By default, we
should halt and make the user investigate, but if the user doesn't
know why or care that the submodule is dirty, I also added the ability
to 'make CLEAN_SUBMODULE=1' to get things going again.
Also, while testing this, I noticed that when a submodule update was
needed, 'make' would first run autoreconf, then bootstrap (which
reruns autoreconf); adding a strategic dependency allows for less work.
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for maint.mk improvements.
* cfg.mk (_autogen): Also hook maint.mk, to run before autoreconf.

Currently if you build on a machine that does not support SELinux we end up

even though /sys/fs/selinux exists.

Add support for logging to the systemd journal, using its
simple client library. The benefit over syslog is that it
accepts structured log data, so the journald can store
individual items like code file/line/func separately from
the string message. Tools which require structured log
data can then query the journal to extract exactly what
they desire without resorting to string parsing
While systemd provides a simple client library for logging,
it is more convenient for libvirt to directly write its
own client code. This lets us build up the iovec's on
the stack, avoiding the need to alloc memory when writing
log messages.

Currently the qemuCapsParseDeviceStr method has a bunch of open
coded string searches/comparisons to detect devices and their
properties. Soon this data will be obtained from QMP queries
instead of -device help output. Maintaining the list of device
and properties in two places is undesirable. Thus the existing
qemuCapsParseDeviceStr() method needs to be refactored to
separate the device types and properties from the actual
search code.
Thus the -device help output is now parsed to construct a
list of device names, and device properties. These are then
checked against a set of datatables to set the capability
flags

I hit this problem recently when trying to create a bridge with an IPv6
address on a 3.2 kernel: dnsmasq (and, further, radvd) would not bind to
the given address, waiting 20s and then giving up with -EADDRNOTAVAIL
(resp. exiting immediately with "error parsing or activating the config
file", without libvirt noticing it, BTW). This can be reproduced with (I
think) any kernel >= 2.6.39 and the following XML (to be used with
"virsh net-create"):
<network>
<name>test-bridge</name>
<bridge name='testbr0' />
<ip family='ipv6' address='fd00::1' prefix='64'>
</ip>
</network>
(it happens even when you have an IPv4, too)
The problem is that since commit [1] (which, ironically, was made to
“help IPv6 autoconfiguration”) the linux bridge code makes bridges
behave like “real” devices regarding carrier detection. This makes the
bridges created by libvirt, which are started without any up devices,
stay with the NO-CARRIER flag set, and thus prevents DAD (Duplicate
address detection) from happening, thus letting the IPv6 address flagged
as “tentative”. Such addresses cannot be bound to (see RFC 2462), so
dnsmasq fails binding to it (for radvd, it detects that "interface XXX
is not RUNNING", thus that "interface XXX does not exist, ignoring the
interface" (sic)). It seems that this behavior was enhanced somehow with
commit [2] by avoiding setting NO-CARRIER on empty bridges, but I
couldn't reproduce this behavior on my kernel. Anyway, with the “dummy
tap to set MAC address” trick, this wouldn't work.
To fix this, the idea is to get the bridge's attached device to be up so
that DAD can happen (deactivating DAD altogether is not a good idea, I
think). Currently, libvirt creates a dummy TAP device to set the MAC
address of the bridge, keeping it down. But even if we set this device
up, it is not RUNNING as soon as the tap file descriptor attached to it
is closed, thus still preventing DAD. So, we must modify the API a bit,
so that we can get the fd, keep the tap device persistent, run the
daemons, and close it after DAD has taken place. After that, the bridge
will be flagged NO-CARRIER again, but the daemons will be running, even
if not happy about the device's state (but we don't really care about
the bridge's daemons doing anything when no up interface is connected to
it).
Other solutions that I envisioned were:
* Keeping the *-nic interface up: this would waste an fd for each
bridge during all its life. May be acceptable, I don't really
know.
* Stop using the dummy tap trick, and set the MAC address directly
on the bridge: it is possible since quite some time it seems,
even if then there is the problem of the bridge not being
RUNNING when empty, contrary to what [2] says, so this will need
fixing (and this fix only happened in 3.1, so it wouldn't work
for 2.6.39)
* Using the --interface option of dnsmasq, but I saw somewhere
that it's not used by libvirt for backward compatibility. I am
not sure this would solve this problem, though, as I don't know
how dnsmasq binds itself to it with this option.
This is why this patch does what's described earlier.
This patch also makes radvd start even if the interface is
“missing” (i.e. it is not RUNNING), as it daemonizes before binding to
it, and thus sometimes does it after the interface has been brought down
by us (by closing the tap fd), and then originally stops. This also
makes it stop yelling about it in the logs when the interface is down at
a later time.
