All of the functions in util/interface.c were returning 0 on success,
but some returned -1 on error, and some returned a positive value
(usually the value of errno, but sometimes just 1). Libvirt's standard
is to return < 0 on error (in the case of functions that need to
return errno, -errno is returned.
This patch modifies all functions in interface.c to consistently
return < 0 on error, and makes changes to callers of those functions
where necessary.
There is some commonality between the code for sanity checking
certs when initializing libvirt and the code for validating
certs during a live TLS session handshake. This patchset splits
up the sanity checking function into several smaller functions
each doing a specific type of check. The cert validation code
is then updated to also call into these functions
* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c: Refactor cert validation code
The gnutls_certificate_type_set_priority method is deprecated.
Since we already set the default gnutls priority, it was not
serving any useful purpose and can be removed
* src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c: Remove gnutls_certificate_type_set_priority
call
If the virStateInitialize call fails we must shutdown libvirtd
since drivers will not be available. Just free'ing the virNetServer
is not sufficient, we must send a SIGTERM to ourselves so that
we interrupt the event loop and trigger a orderly shutdown
* daemon/libvirtd.c: Kill ourselves if state init fails
* src/rpc/virnetserver.c: Add some debugging to event loop
When an operation started by virDomainBlockPull completes (either with
success or with failure), raise an event to indicate the final status.
This API allow users to avoid polling on virDomainGetBlockJobInfo if
they would prefer to use an event mechanism.
* daemon/remote.c: Dispatch events to client
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Define event ID and callback signature
* src/conf/domain_event.c, src/conf/domain_event.h,
src/libvirt_private.syms: Extend API to handle the new event
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Connect to the QEMU monitor event
for block_stream completion and emit a libvirt block pull event
* src/remote/remote_driver.c: Receive and dispatch events to application
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x: Wire protocol definition for the event
* src/remote_protocol-structs: structure definitions for protocol verification
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Watch for BLOCK_STREAM_COMPLETED event

virDomainGetBlockJobInfo requires manual override since it returns a
custom type.
* python/generator.py: reenable bindings for this entry point
* python/libvirt-override-api.xml python/libvirt-override.c:
manual overrides
Define two new virsh commands:
* blockpull: Initiate a blockPull for the given disk
* blockjob: Retrieve progress info, modify speed, and cancel active block jobs
Share print_job_progress() with the migration code.
* tools/virsh.c: implement the new commands
The virDomainBlockPull* family of commands are enabled by the
following HMP/QMP commands: 'block_stream', 'block_job_cancel',
'info block-jobs' / 'query-block-jobs', and 'block_job_set_speed'.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.[ch]: implement disk
streaming by using the proper qemu monitor commands.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.[ch]: implement commands using the qmp monitor
The generator can handle everything except virDomainGetBlockJobInfo().
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x: provide defines for the new entry points
* src/remote/remote_driver.c daemon/remote.c: implement the client and
server side for virDomainGetBlockJobInfo.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: structure definitions for protocol verification

* src/libvirt_public.syms: export symbols
* docs/apibuild.py: Extend 'unsigned long' parameter exception to this

Now you can edit a saved state file even if you forgot to grab
a dumpxml file prior to saving a domain. Plus, in-place editing
feels so much nicer.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSaveImageDumpxml, cmdSaveImageDefine)
(cmdSaveImageEdit): New commands.
* tools/virsh.pod (save-image-dumpxml, save-image-define)
(save-image-edit): Document them.
Modifying the xml on either save or restore only gets you so
far - you have to remember to 'virsh dumpxml dom' just prior
to the 'virsh save' in order to have an xml file worth modifying
that won't be rejected due to abi breaks. To make this more
powerful, we need a way to grab the xml embedded within a state
file, and from there, it's not much harder to also support
modifying a state file in-place.
Also, virDomainGetXMLDesc didn't document its flags.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New prototypes.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDomainSaveImageDefineXML): New API.
* src/libvirt_public.syms: Export them.
* src/driver.h (virDrvDomainSaveImageGetXMLDesc)
(virDrvDomainSaveImgeDefineXML): New driver callbacks.
libvirt-guests is a perfect use case for bypassing the file system
cache - lots of filesystem traffic done at system shutdown, where
caching is pointless, and startup, where reading large files only
once just gets in the way. Make this a configurable option in the
init script, but defaulting to existing behavior.
* tools/libvirt-guests.sysconf (BYPASS_CACHE): New variable.
* tools/libvirt-guests.init.sh (start, suspend_guest): Use it.
When auto-dumping a domain on crash events, or autostarting a domain
with managed save state, let the user configure whether to imply
the bypass cache flag.
* src/qemu/qemu.conf (auto_dump_bypass_cache, auto_start_bypass_cache):
Document new variables.
* src/qemu/libvirtd_qemu.aug (vnc_entry): Let augeas parse them.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h (qemud_driver): Store new preferences.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c (qemudLoadDriverConfig): Parse them.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (processWatchdogEvent, qemuAutostartDomain):
Honor them.
Wire together the previous patches to support file system cache
bypass during API save/restore requests in qemu.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSaveInternal, doCoreDump)
(qemudDomainObjStart, qemuDomainSaveImageOpen, qemuDomainObjRestore)
(qemuDomainObjStart): Add parameter.
(qemuDomainSaveFlags, qemuDomainManagedSave, qemudDomainCoreDump)
(processWatchdogEvent, qemudDomainStartWithFlags, qemuAutostartDomain)
(qemuDomainRestoreFlags): Update callers.
O_DIRECT has stringent requirements. Rather than make lots of changes
at each site that wants to use O_DIRECT, it is easier to offload
the work through a helper process that mirrors the I/O between a
pipe and the actual direct fd, so that the other end of the pipe
no longer has to worry about constraints.
Plus, if the kernel ever gains better posix_fadvise support, then we
only have to touch a single file to let all callers benefit from a
more efficient way to avoid file system caching.
* src/util/virfile.h (virFileDirectFdFlag, virFileDirectFdNew)
(virFileDirectFdClose, virFileDirectFdFree): New prototypes.
* src/util/virdirect.c: Implement new wrapper object.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (virfile.h): Export new symbols.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add to list.
* po/POTFILES.in: Add new translations.
Required for a coming patch where iohelper will operate on O_DIRECT
fds. There, the user-space memory must be aligned to file system
boundaries (at least 512, but using page-aligned works better, and
some file systems prefer 64k). Made tougher by the fact that
VIR_ALLOC won't work on void *, but posix_memalign won't work on
char * and isn't available everywhere.
This patch makes some simplifying assumptions - namely, output
to an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on an empty seekable
file (hence, no need to worry about preserving existing data
on a partial block, and ftruncate will work to undo the effects
of having to round up the size of the last block written), and
input from an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on a complete
seekable file with the only possible short read at EOF.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Check for posix_memalign.
* src/util/iohelper.c (runIO): Use aligned memory, and handle
quirks of O_DIRECT on last write.
Rather than making the iohelper subject to a race in reopening
the file, it is nicer to pass an already-open fd by inheritance.
The old synopsis form must continue to work - if someone updates
their libvirt package and installs a new libvirt_iohelper but
without restarting the old libvirtd daemon, then the daemon can
still make calls using the old syntax but the new iohelper.
* src/util/iohelper.c (runIO): Split code for open...
(prepare): ...to new function.
(usage): Update synopsis.
(main): Allow alternate calling form.
* src/fdstream.c (virFDStreamOpenFileInternal): Use alternate form.
Also, migrate was missing documentation for the --xml option
added in commit ec5301cb.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSave, cmdRestore): Add xml argument.
* tools/virsh.pod (save, restore, migrate): Document it.
Wire up the new flag to several virsh commands. Also, the
'dump' command had undocumented flags.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdSave, cmdManagedSave, cmdDump, cmdStart)
(cmdRestore): Add new flag.
* tools/virsh.pod (save, managedsave, dump, start, restore):
Document flags.
For all hypervisors that support save and restore, the new API
now performs the same functions as the old.
VBox is excluded from this list, because its existing domainsave
is broken (there is no corresponding domainrestore, and there
is no control over the filename used in the save). A later
patch should change vbox to use its implementation for
managedsave, and teach start to use managedsave results.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c (libxlDomainSave): Move guts...
(libxlDomainSaveFlags): ...to new function.
(libxlDomainRestore): Move guts...
(libxlDomainRestoreFlags): ...to new function.
* src/test/test_driver.c (testDomainSave, testDomainSaveFlags)
(testDomainRestore, testDomainRestoreFlags): Likewise.
* src/xen/xen_driver.c (xenUnifiedDomainSave)
(xenUnifiedDomainSaveFlags, xenUnifiedDomainRestore)
(xenUnifiedDomainRestoreFlags): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSave, qemudDomainRestore):
Rename and move guts.

(qemuDomainRestoreFlags): ...here.
(qemudDomainSaveFlag): Rename...
(qemuDomainSaveInternal): ...to this, and update callers.
VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG implies that an argument cannot possibly
be correct, given the current state of the API.
VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED implies that a configuration is
wrong, but arguments aren't configuration.
VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT implies that a function is completely
unimplemented.
But in the case of a function that is partially implemented,
yet the full power of the API is not available for that
driver, none of the above messages make sense. Hence a new
error message, implying that the argument is known to comply
with the current state of the API, and that while the driver
supports aspects of the function, it does not support that
particular use of the argument.
A good use case for this is a driver that supports
virDomainSaveFlags, but not the dxml argument of that API.
It might be feasible to also use this new error for all functions
that check flags, and which accept fewer flags than what is possible
in the public API. But doing so would get complicated, since
neither libvirt.c nor the remote driver may do flag filtering,
and every other driver would have to do a two-part check, first
using virCheckFlags on all public flags (which gives
VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG for an impossible flag), followed by a
particular mask check for VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED (for a
possible public flag but unsupported by this driver).
* include/libvirt/virterror.h (VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED): New
error.
* src/util/virterror.c (virErrorMsg): Give it a message.
Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.
Build failure on xenapi_driver from compiler warnings (flags was unused).
Build failure on xen (incorrect number of arguments). And in fixing
that, I obeyed the comments of struct xenUnifiedDriver that state
that we want to minimize the number of callback functions in that
struct, not add to it.
* src/xen/xen_driver.c (xenUnifiedDomainDestroyFlags): Use correct
arguments.
(xenUnifiedDomainDestroy): Simplify.
* src/xen/xen_driver.h (xenUnifiedDriver): Remove unused callback.
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c (xenHypervisorDestroyDomain): Likewise.
* src/xen/xend_internal.c (xenDaemonDomainDestroy): Likewise.

* src/xen/xs_internal.c (xenStoreDriver): Likewise.
* src/xen/xen_inotify.c (xenInotifyDriver): Likewise.
* src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c (xenapiDomainDestroyFlags): Reject
unknown flags.
The network driver needs to assign physical devices for use by modes
that use macvtap, keeping track of which physical devices are in use
(and how many instances, when the devices can be shared). Three calls
are added:
networkAllocateActualDevice - finds a physical device for use by the
domain, and sets up the virDomainActualNetDef accordingly.
networkNotifyActualDevice - assumes that the domain was already
running, but libvirtd was restarted, and needs to be notified by each
already-running domain about what interfaces they are using.
networkReleaseActualDevice - decrements the usage count of the
allocated physical device, and frees the virDomainActualNetDef to
avoid later accidentally using the device.
bridge_driver.[hc] - the new APIs. When WITH_NETWORK is false, these
functions are all #defined to be "0" in the .h file (effectively
becoming a NOP) to prevent link errors.
qemu_(command|driver|hotplug|process).c - add calls to the above APIs
in the appropriate places.
tests/Makefile.am - we need to include libvirt_driver_network.la
whenever libvirt_driver_qemu.la is linked, to avoid unreferenced
symbols (in functions that are never called by the test
programs...)
This is the one function outside of domain_conf.c that plays around
with (even modifying) the internals of the virDomainNetDef, and thus
can't be fixed up simply by replacing direct accesses to the fields of
the struct with the GetActual*() access functions.
In this case, we need to check if the defined type is "network", and
if it is *then* check the actual type; if the actual type is "bridge",
then we can at least put the bridgename in a place where it can be
used; otherwise (if type isn't "bridge"), we behave exactly as we used
to - just null out *everything*.
The qemu driver accesses fields in the virDomainNetDef directly, but
with the advent of the virDomainActualNetDef, some pieces of
information may be found in a different place (the ActualNetDef) if
the network connection is of type='network' and that network is of
forward type='bridge|private|vepa|passthrough'. The previous patch
added functions to mask this difference from callers - they hide the
decision making process and just pick the value from the proper place.
This patch uses those functions in the qemu driver as a first step in
making qemu work with the new network types. At this point, the
virDomainActualNetDef is guaranteed always NULL, so the GetActualX()
function will return exactly what the def->X that's being replaced
would have returned (ie bisecting is not compromised).
There is one place (in qemu_driver.c) where the internal details of
the NetDef are directly manipulated by the code, so the GetActual
functions cannot be used there without extra additional code; that
file will be treated in a separate patch.
Previously all networks were composed of bridge devices created and
managed by libvirt, and the same operations needed to be done for all
of them when they were started and stopped (create and start the
bridge device, configure its MAC address and IP address, add iptables
rules). The new network types are (for now at least) managed outside
of libvirt, and the network object is used only to contain information
about the network, which is then used as each individual guest
connects itself.
This means that when starting/stopping one of these new networks, we
really want to do nothing, aside from marking the network as
active/inactive.
This has been setup as toplevel Start/Shutdown functions that do the
small bit of common stuff, then have a switch statement to execute
network type-specific start/shutdown code, then do a bit more common
code. The type-specific functions called for the new host bridge and
macvtap based types are currently empty.
In the future these functions may actually do something, and we will
surely add more functions that are similarly patterned. Once
everything has settled, we can make a table of "sub-driver" function
pointers for each network type, and store a pointer to that table in
the network object, then we can replace the switch statements with
calls to functions in the table.
The final step in this will be to add a new table (and corresponding
new functions) for new network types as they are added.
The network XML is updated in the following ways:
1) The <forward> element can now contain a list of forward interfaces:
<forward .... >
<interface dev='eth10'/>
<interface dev='eth11'/>
<interface dev='eth12'/>
<interface dev='eth13'/>
</forward>
The first of these takes the place of the dev attribute that is
normally in <forward> - when defining a network you can specify
either one, and on output both will be present. If you specify
both on input, they must match.
2) In addition to forward modes of 'nat' and 'route', these new modes
are supported:
private, passthrough, vepa - when this network is referenced by a
domain's interface, it will have the same effect as if the
interface had been defined as type='direct', e.g.:
<interface type='direct'>
<source mode='${mode}' dev='${dev}>
...
</interface>
where ${mode} is one of the three new modes, and ${dev} is an interface
selected from the list given in <forward>.
bridge - if a <forward> dev (or multiple devs) is defined, and
forward mode is 'bridge' this is just like the modes 'private',
'passthrough', and 'vepa' above. If there is no forward dev
specified but a bridge name is given (e.g. "<bridge
name='br0'/>"), then guest interfaces using this network will use
libvirt's "host bridge" mode, equivalent to this:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='${bridge-name}'/>
...
</interface>
3) A network can have multiple <portgroup> elements, which may be
selected by the guest interface definition (by adding
"portgroup='${name}'" in the <source> element along with the
network name). Currently a portgroup can only contain a
virtportprofile, but the intent is that other configuration items
may be put there int the future (e.g. bandwidth config). When
building a guest's interface, if the <interface> XML itself has no
virtportprofile, and if the requested network has a portgroup with
a name matching the name given in the <interface> (or if one of the
network's portgroups is marked with the "default='yes'" attribute),
the virtportprofile from that portgroup will be used by the
interface.
4) A network can have a virtportprofile defined at the top level,
which will be used by a guest interface when connecting in one of
the 'direct' modes if the guest interface XML itself hasn't
specified any virtportprofile, and if there are also no matching
portgroups on the network.
the domain XML <interface> element is updated in the following ways:
1) <virtualportprofile> can be specified when source type='network'
(previously it was only valid for source type='direct')
2) A new attribute "portgroup" has been added to the <source>
element. When source type='network' (the only time portgroup is
recognized), extra configuration information will be taken from the
<portgroup> element of the given name in the network definition.
3) Each virDomainNetDef now also potentially has a
virDomainActualNetDef which is a private object (never
exported/imported via the public API, and not defined in the RNG) that
is used to maintain information about the physical device that was
actually used for a NetDef of type VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK.
The virDomainActualNetDef will only be parsed/formatted if the
parse/format function is called with the
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_ACTUAL_NET flag set (which is only needed when
saving/loading a running domain's state info to the stateDir).
The virtPortProfile in the domain interface struct is now a separately
allocated object *pointed to by* (rather than contained in) the main
virDomainNetDef object. This is done to make it easier to figure out
when a virtualPortProfile has/hasn't been specified in a particular
config.
virtPortProfiles are currently only used in the domain XML, but will
soon also be used in the network XML. To prepare for that change, this
patch moves the structure definition into util/network.h and the parse
and format functions into util/network.c (I decided that this was a
better choice than macvtap.h/c for something that needed to always be
available on all platforms).
This introduces new API virDomainDestroyFlags to allow
domain destroying with flags, as the existing API virDomainDestroy
misses flags.
The set of flags is defined in virDomainDestroyFlagsValues enum,
which is currently commented, because it is empty.
Calling this API with no flags set (@flags == 0) is equivalent calling
virDomainDestroy.
