External disk-only snapshots with recent enough qemu don't require
libvirt to pause the VM. The logic determining when to resume cpus was
slightly flawed and attempted to resume them even if they were not
paused by the snapshot code. This normally was not a problem, but with
locking enabled the code would attempt to acquire the lock twice.
The fallout of this bug would be a error from the API, but the actual
snapshot being created. The bug was introduced with when adding support
for external snapshots with memory (checkpoints) in commit f569b87.
Resolves problems described by:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1403691
After qemu delivers the resume event it's already running and thus it's
too late to enter lockspaces since it may already have modified the
disk. The code only creates false log entries in the case when locking
is enabled. The lockspace needs to be acquired prior to starting cpus.
Given how intrusive previous patches are, it might happen that
there's a bug or imperfection. Lets give users a way out: if they
set 'namespaces' to an empty array in qemu.conf the feature is
suppressed.

Instead of trying to fix our security drivers, we can use a
simple trick to relabel paths in both namespace and the host.
I mean, if we enter the namespace some paths are still shared
with the host so any change done to them is visible from the host
too.
Therefore, we can just enter the namespace and call
SetAllLabel()/RestoreAllLabel() from there. Yes, it has slight
overhead because we have to fork in order to enter the namespace.
But on the other hand, no complexity is added to our code.

Prime time. When it comes to spawning qemu process and
relabelling all the devices it's going to touch, there's inherent
race with other applications in the system (e.g. udev). Instead
of trying convincing udev to not touch libvirt managed devices,
we can create a separate mount namespace for the qemu, and mount
our own /dev there. Of course this puts more work onto us as we
have to maintain /dev files on each domain start and device
hot(un-)plug. On the other hand, this enhances security also.
From technical POV, on domain startup process the parent
(libvirtd) creates:
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/$domain.dev
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/$domain.devpts
The child (which is going to be qemu eventually) calls unshare()
to create new mount namespace. From now on anything that child
does is invisible to the parent. Child then mounts tmpfs on
$domain.dev (so that it still sees original /dev from the host)
and creates some devices (as explained in one of the previous
patches). The devices have to be created exactly as they are in
the host (including perms, seclabels, ACLs, ...). After that it
moves $domain.dev mount to /dev.
What's the $domain.devpts mount there for then you ask? QEMU can
create PTYs for some chardevs. And historically we exposed the
host ends in our domain XML allowing users to connect to them.
Therefore we must preserve devpts mount to be shared with the
host's one.
To make this patch as small as possible, creating of devices
configured for domain in question is implemented in next patches.

If the cpuset cgroup controller is disabled in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
QEMU virtual machines can in principle use all host CPUs, even if they
are hot plugged, if they have no explicit CPU affinity defined.
However, there's libvirt code supposed to handle the situation where
the libvirt daemon itself is not using all host CPUs. The code in
qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity attempts to set an affinity mask including
all defined host CPUs. Unfortunately, the resulting affinity mask for
the process will not contain the offline CPUs. See also the
sched_setaffinity(2) man page.
That means that even if the host CPUs come online again, they won't be
used by the QEMU process anymore. The same is true for newly hot
plugged CPUs. So we are effectively preventing that QEMU uses all
processors instead of enabling it to use them.
It only makes sense to set the QEMU process affinity if we're able
to actually grow the set of usable CPUs, i.e. if the process affinity
is a subset of the online host CPUs.
There's still the chance that for some reason the deliberately chosen
libvirtd affinity matches the online host CPU mask by accident. In this
case the behavior remains as it was before (CPUs offline while setting
the affinity will not be used if they show up later on).

qemuAgentNotifyEvent accesses monitor structure and is called on qemu
reset/shutdown/suspend events under domain lock. Other monitor
functions on the other hand take monitor lock and don't hold domain lock.
Thus it is possible to have risky simultaneous access to the structure
from 2 threads. Let's take monitor lock here to make access exclusive.
In case of 0 filesystems *info is not set while according
to virDomainGetFSInfo contract user should call free on it even
in case of 0 filesystems. Thus we need to properly set
it. NULL will be enough as free eats NULLs ok.
The libvirt-domain.h documentation indicates that for a qcow2 file
in a filesystem being used for a backing store should report the disk
space occupied by a file; however, commit id '15fa84ac' altered the
code to trust that the wr_highest_offset should be used whenever
wr_highest_offset_valid was set.
As it turns out this will lead to indeterminite results. For an active
domain when qemu hasn't yet had the need to find the wr_highest_offset
value, qemu will report 0 even though qemu-img will report the proper
disk size. This causes reporting of the following XML:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='qcow2'/>
<source file='/path/to/test-1g.qcow2'/>
to be as follows:
Capacity: 1073741824
Allocation: 0
Physical: 1074139136
with qemu-img indicating:
image: /path/to/test-1g.qcow2
file format: qcow2
virtual size: 1.0G (1073741824 bytes)
disk size: 1.0G
Once the backing source file is opened on the guest, then wr_highest_offset
is updated, but only to the high water mark and not the size of the file.
This patch will adjust the logic to check for the file backed qcow2 image
and enforce setting the allocation to the returned 'physical' value, which
is the 'actual-size' value from a 'query-block' operation.
NB: The other consumer of the wr_highest_offset output (GetAllDomainStats)
has a contract that indicates 'allocation' is the offset of the highest
written sector, so it doesn't need adjustment.

Instead of having duplicated code in qemuStorageLimitsRefresh and
virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfo to get capacity specific data
about the storage backing source or volume -- create a common API
to handle the details for both.
As a side effect, virStorageFileProbeFormatFromBuf returns to being
a local/static helper to virstoragefile.c
For the QEMU code - if the probe is done, then the format is saved so
as to avoid future such probes.
For the storage backend code, there is no need to deal with the probe
since we cannot call the new API if target->format == NONE.

The common API will fill in "default" capacity values as well - although
those more than likely will be overridden by subsequent code. Having just
one place to make the determination of what the values should be will
make things be more consistent.
For the QEMU code - the data filled in will be for inactive domains
for the GetBlockInfo and DomainGetStatsOneBlock API's. For the storage
backend code - the data will be filled in during the volume updates.

Commit id '8dc27259' introduced virStorageSourceUpdateBlockPhysicalSize
in order to retrieve the physical size for a block backed source device
for an active domain since commit id '15fa84ac' changed to use the
qemuMonitorGetAllBlockStatsInfo and qemuMonitorBlockStatsUpdateCapacity
API's to (essentially) retrieve the "actual-size" from a 'query-block'
operation for the source device.
However, the code only was made functional for a BLOCK backing type
and it neglected to use qemuOpenFile, instead using just open. After
the open the block lseek would find the end of the block and set the
physical value, close the fd and return.
Since the code would return 0 immediately if the source device wasn't
a BLOCK backed device, the physical would be displayed incorrectly,
such as follows in domblkinfo for a file backed source device:
Capacity: 1073741824
Allocation: 0
Physical: 0
This patch will modify the algorithm to get the physical size for other
backing types and it will make use of the qemuDomainStorageOpenStat
helper in order to open/stat the source file depending on its type.
The qemuDomainGetStatsOneBlock will no longer inhibit printing errors,
but it will still ignore them leaving the physical value set to 0.

* changes 'path' to 'ifname', to use the same vocable as other
method in virnetdevtap.c.
* Add the attributes checker
When vhostuser interfaces are used, the interface statistics
are not available in /proc/net/dev.
This change looks at the openvswitch interfaces statistics
tables to provide this information for vhostuser interface.
Note that in openvswitch world drop/error doesn't always make sense
for some interface type. When these informations are not available we
set them to 0 on the virDomainInterfaceStats.

If you've ever tried running a huge page backed guest under
different user than in qemu.conf, you probably failed. Problem is
even though we have corresponding APIs in the security drivers,
there's no implementation and thus we don't relabel the huge page
path. But even if we did, so far all of the domains share the
same path:
/hugepageMount/libvirt/qemu
Our only option there would be to set 0777 mode on the qemu dir
which is totally unsafe. Therefore, we can create dir on
per-domain basis, i.e.:
/hugepageMount/libvirt/qemu/domainName
and chown domainName dir to the user that domain is configured to

Rather than have multiple bool values, create a single enum with bits
representing what fields are set. Fields are generally set in groups
of 3 (read, write, total).
Currently we build the JSON object for the "block_set_io_throttle"
command using the knowledge that a NULL for a support*Options boolean
would essentially ignore the rest of the arguments.
This may not work properly if some capability was backported, plus it just
looks rather ugly. So instead, build the "base" arguments and then if
the support*Option bool capability is set, add in the arguments on the fly.
Then append those arguments to the basic command and send to qemu.
Rather than using negative logic and setting the maxparams to a lesser
value based on which capabilities exist, alter the logic to modify the
maxparams based on a base value plus the found capabilities. Reduces the
chance that some backported feature produces an incorrect value.
