On the very first log message we send to any output, we include
the libvirt version number and package string. In some bug reports
we have been given libvirtd.log files that came from a different
host than the corresponding /var/log/libvirt/qemu log files. So
extend the initial log message to include the hostname too.
eg on first log message we would now see:

Prior to commit id '98322052' failure to saferead the block device would
cause an error to be logged and the device to be skipped while attempting
to discover/create a stable target path for a new LUN (NPIV).
This was because virStorageBackendSCSIFindLUs ignored errors from
processLU and virStorageBackendSCSINewLun.
Ignoring the failure allowed a multipath device with an "active" and
"ghost" to be present on the host with the "ghost" block device being
ignored. This patch will return a -2 to the caller indicating the desire
to ignore the block device since it cannot be used directly rather than
fail the pool startup.
I found this useful while processing a volume that wouldn't end up
showing up in the resulting list of block volumes. In this case, the
partition type wasn't found in the disk_types table.
Similar to the openflags VIR_STORAGE_VOL_OPEN_NOERROR processing, if some
read processing operation fails, check the readflags for the corresponding
error flag being set. If so, rather then causing an error - use VIR_WARN
to flag the error, but return -2 which some callers can use to perform
specific actions. Use a new VIR_STORAGE_VOL_READ_NOERROR flag in a new
VolReadErrorMode enum.
While processing the volume for lseek, virFileReadHeaderFD, and
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf - failure would cause an error,
but ret would not be set. That would result in an error message being
sent, but successful status being returned.
Just so it's clearer what to expect upon input and what types of return
values could be generated. These were loosely copied from existing
virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD.
Similar to the openflags which allow VIR_STORAGE_VOL_OPEN_NOERROR to be
passed to avoid open errors, add a 'readflags' variable so that in the
future read failures could also be ignored.
Add qemuDomainHasVCpuPids to do the checking and replace in place checks
with it.
We no longer need checking whether the thread contains fake data
(vcpupids[0] == vm->pid) as in b07f3d821d
and 65686e5a81 this was removed.
The vCPU threads make sense in the counterparts that set the vCPU
bandwidth/quota, not in the emulator one. The emulator tunables are set
all the time anyways.
Drop the extra check and remove the now unneeded vm argument.
Since commit 0c04906fa the check for priv->cgroup doesn't make sense as
the calls to virCgroupHasController return the same information. Remove
it and move it's comment partially to the new check.
The already spurious check was also later copied to the iothreads code.
Once more stuff will be moved into the vCPU data structure it will be
necessary to get a specific one in some ocasions. Add a helper that will
simplify this task.
Refactor the code flow so that 'exit_monitor:' can be removed.
This patch moves the auditing functions into places where it's certain
that hotunplug was or was not successful and reports errors from
qemuMonitorGetCPUInfo properly.
Refactor the code flow so that 'exit_monitor:' can be removed.
This patch also moves the auditing and setting of the new vCPU count
right to the place where the hotplug happens, since it's possible that
the hotplug succeeds and adds a cpu while other stuff fails.
Lastly, failures of qemuMonitorGetCPUInfo are now reported rather than
ignored. The function retuns 0 if it "successfully" detected 0 threads.
qemuDomainHotplugVcpus/qemuDomainHotunplugVcpus are complex enough in
regards of adding one CPU. Additionally it will be desired to reuse
those functions later with specific vCPU hotplug.
Move the loops for adding vCPUs into qemuDomainSetVcpusFlags so that the
helpers can be made simpler and more straightforward.
The cpu hotplug helper functions used negative error handling in a part
of them, although some code that was added later didn't properly set the
error codes in some cases. This would cause improper error messages in
cases where we couldn't modify the numa cpu mask and a few other cases.
Fix the logic by converting it to the regularly used pattern.
With a very unfortunate timing, the agent might vanish before we do the

This reverts commit d2e5538b16.
A migration regression was introduced by this commit. When migrating
a domain, its active XML is sent to the destination libvirtd, where
it is parsed as inactive XML. d2e5538b copied the libxl generated
interface name into the active config, which was being passed to the
migration destination and being parsed into inactive config. Attempting
to start the config could result in failure if an interface with the
same generated name already exists.
The qemu driver behaves similarly, but the parser contains a hack to
skip interface names starting with 'vnet' when parsing inactive XML.
We could extend the hack to skip names starting with 'vif' too, but a
better fix would be to expose these hypervisor-specific interface name
prefixes in capabilities. See the following discussion thread for more
details
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-December/msg00262.html
For the pending 1.3.0 release, it is best to revert d2e5538b. It can
be added again post release, after moving the prefix to capabilities.

The current virtlogd RPC protocol provides the ability to
handle log files associated with QEMU stdout/err. The log
protocol messages take the virt driver, domain name and
use that to form a log file path. This is quite restrictive
as it prevents us re-using the same RPC protocol messages
for logging to char device backends where the filename
can be arbitrarily user specified. It is also bad because
it means we have 2 separate locations which have to decide
on logfile name.
This change alters the RPC protocol so that we pass the
desired log file path along when opening the log file
initially. Now the virt driver is exclusively in charge
of deciding the log filename

This patch reverts parts of commits 0d8b24f6b and 0785966d dealing with
the addition of a controller during virDomainHostdevAssignAddress. This
caused a regression for the hostdev hotplug path which assumes the
qemuDomainFindOrCreateSCSIDiskController will add the new controller
during qemuDomainAttachHostSCSIDevice to both the running domain and
the domain def controller list when the controller doesn't yet exist
(whether due to no SCSI controllers existing or the addition of a new
controller because existing ones are full).
Since commit id 0d8b24f6 will call virDomainHostdevAssignAddress during
virDomainDeviceDefPostParseInternal which is called either during domain
definition post processing (via an iterator during virDomainDefPostParse)
or directly from virDomainDeviceDefParse during hotplug, the change
broke the "side effect" of being able to add both a hostdev and controller
to the running domain.
The regression would only be seen if the running domain didn't have a
SCSI controller already defined or if the existing SCSI controller was
"full" of devices and a new controller needed to be created.
This patch will also add some extra comments to the code to avoid a
similar future change.

virAdmConnect was named after virConnect, but after some discussions,
most of the APIs called will be working with remote daemon and starting
them virAdmDaemon will make more sense. Only possibly controversal name
is CloseCallback (de)registration, and connecting to the daemon (which
will still be Open/Close), but even this makes sense if one thinks about
the daemon being opened and closed, e.g. as file, etc.
This way all the APIs working with the daemon will start with
virAdmDaemon prefix, they will accept virAdmDaemonPtr as first parameter
and that will better suit with other namings as well (virDomain*,
virAdmServer*, etc.).
Because in virt-admin, the connection name does not refer to a struct
that would have a connect in its name, also adjust 'connname' in
clients. And because it is not used anywhere in the vsh code, move it
from there into each client.

If VM A is shutdown a by qemu agent at appoximately the same time
an agent EOF of VM A happened, there's a chance that deadlock may occur:
qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF in main thread
A) priv->agent = NULL; //A happened before B
//deadlock when we get agent lock which's held by worker thread
qemuAgentClose(agent);
qemuDomainObjExitAgent called by qemuDomainShutdownFlags in worker thread
B) hasRefs = virObjectUnref(priv->agent); // priv->agent is NULL,
// return false
if (hasRefs)
virObjectUnlock(priv->agent); //agent lock will not be released here
In order to resolve, during EOF close the agent first, then set priv->agent
to NULL to fix the deadlock.
This essentially reverts commit id '1020a504'. It's also of note that commit
id '362d0477' notes a possible/rare deadlock similar to what was seen in
the monitor in commit id '25f582e3'. However, it seems interceding changes
including commit id 'd960d06f' should remove the deadlock issue.
With this change, if EOF is called:
Get VM lock
Check if !priv->agent || priv->beingDestroyed, then unlock VM
Call qemuAgentClose
Unlock VM
When qemuAgentClose is called
Get Agent lock
If Agent->fd open, close it
Unlock Agent
Unref Agent
qemuDomainObjEnterAgent
Enter with VM lock
Get Agent lock
Increase Agent refcnt
Unlock VM
After running agent command, calling qemuDomainObjExitAgent
Enter with Agent lock
Unref Agent
If not last reference, unlock Agent
Get VM lock
If we were in the middle of an EnterAgent, call Agent command, and
ExitAgent sequence and the EOF code is triggered, then the EOF code
can get the VM lock, make it's checks against !priv->agent ||
priv->beingDestroyed, and call qemuAgentClose. The CloseAgent
would wait to get agent lock. The other thread then will eventually
call ExitAgent, release the Agent lock and unref the Agent. Once
ExitAgent releases the Agent lock, AgentClose will get the Agent
Agent lock, close the fd, unlock the agent, and unref the agent.
The final unref would cause deletion of the agent.

Introduce a new API to get libvirt version. It is worth noting, that
libvirt-admin and libvirt share the same version number. Unfortunately,
our existing API isn't generic enough to be used with virAdmConnectPtr
as well. Also this patch wires up this API to the virt-admin client
as a generic cmdVersion command.
As we need a client disconnect handler, we also need a mechanism to register
such handlers for a client. This patch introduced both the close callbacks and
also the client vshAdmCatchDisconnect handler to be registered with it. By
registering the handler we still need to make sure the client can react to
daemon's events like disconnect or keepalive, so asynchronous I/O event polling
is necessary to be enabled too.
Now that we introduced URI support in libvirt-admin, we should also support URI
aliases during connection establishment phase. After applying this patch,
virAdmConnectOpen will also support VIR_CONNECT_NO_ALIASES flag.
As we need to provide support for URI aliases in libvirt-admin as well, URI
alias matching needs to be internally visible. Since
virConnectOpenResolveURIAlias does have a compatible signature, it could be
easily reused by libvirt-admin. This patch moves URI alias matching to util,
renaming it accordingly.
As we plan to add more and more logic to remote connecting methods,
these cannot be generated from admin_protocol.x anymore. Instead,
this patch implements these to methods explicitly.
By moving the remote version into a separate module, we gain a slightly
better maintainability in the long run than just by leaving it in one
place with the existing libvirt-admin library which can start getting
pretty messy later on.
Since most of our APIs rely on an acive functional connection to a daemon and
we have such a mechanism in libvirt already, there's need to have such a way in
libvirt-admin as well. By introducing a new public API, this patch provides
support to check for an active connection.
Unfortunately, client side version retrieval API virGetVersion uses
one-time initialization (due to the fact we might not have initialized the
library by calling connect prior to this) which is not completely compatible
with admin initialization. This API is rather simplistic and reimplementing
it for admin might be the preferred method of reusing it. Note that even though
the method will be reimplemented, the version number is still the same for both
the libvirt and libvirt-admin library.
virConnectGetConfig and virConnectGetConfigPath were static libvirt
methods, merely because there hasn't been any need for having them
internally exported yet. Since libvirt-admin also needs to reference
its config file, 'xGetConfig' should be exported.
Besides moving, this patch also renames the methods accordingly,
as they are libvirt config specific.

Currently the QEMU stdout/stderr streams are written directly to

not very efficient. It also leaves open a window of opportunity
for a compromised/broken QEMU to DOS the host filesystem by
writing lots of text to stdout/stderr.
This makes it possible to connect the stdout/stderr file handles
