Allow an arbitrary timezone with QEMU by setting the $TZ environment
variable when launching QEMU
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Set TZ environment variable if a timezone
is requested
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: Add test case for timezones
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-france.xml,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-france.args: Data
for timezone tests
This extends the XML to allow for
<clock offset='timezone' timezone='Europe/Paris'/>
This is useful if the admin has not configured any timezone on the
host OS, but still wants to synchronize a guest to a specific one.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h, src/conf/domain_conf.c: Support extra
'timezone' attribute on clock configuration
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add 'timezone' attribute
* src/xen/xend_internal.c, src/xen/xm_internal.c: Reject configs
with a configurable timezone
This allows QEMU guests to be started with an arbitrary clock
offset
The test case can't actually be enabled, since QEMU argv expects
an absolute timestring, and this will obviously change every
time the test runs :-( Hopefully QEMU will allow a relative
time offset in the future.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Use the -rtc arg
if available to support variable clock offset mode
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: Add QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_RTC for qemu 0.12.1
* qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-variable.args,
qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-clock-variable.xml,
qemuxml2argvtest.c: Test case, except we can't actually enable
it yet.
This introduces a third option for clock offset synchronization,
that allows an arbitrary / variable adjustment to be set. In
essence the XML contains the time delta in seconds, relative to
UTC.
<clock offset='variable' adjustment='123465'/>
The difference from 'utc' mode, is that management apps should
track adjustments and preserve them at next reboot.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Schema for new clock mode
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Parse
new clock time delta
* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/util/xml.c, src/util/xml.h: Add
virXPathLongLong() method
The XML will soon be extended to allow more than just a simple
localtime/utc boolean flag. This change replaces the plain
'int localtime' with a separate struct to prepare for future
extension
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Add a new
virDomainClockDef structure
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virDomainClockOffsetTypeToString
and virDomainClockOffsetTypeFromString
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c, src/xen/xend_internal.c,
src/xen/xm_internal.c: Updated to use new structure for localtime
While building under RHEL-5, I got a compile warning because
virDomainObjFormat was defined but not used. That came about
because in RHEL-5 we build with "#define PROXY", and
virDomainObjFormat is only used with !PROXY. Move the
define.

Diagnose parse failure also when vzlist output is empty.
If somehow we read a -1, diagnose that (albeit as a parse failure).
Kind of minor, but it annoys me that the default auth callback
doesn't put a space between the prompt and the input, like a typical
terminal, ssh, etc. This patch changes the current prompt:
Please enter your authentication name:myuser
to
Please enter your authentication name: myuser
In bug 567931 we found that virt-top would exit occasionally
when the terminal window was resized. Tracking this down it
turned out that SIGWINCH was being delivered to the process at
exactly the point where the libvirt remote driver was calling
poll(2) waiting for a reply from libvirtd.
This caused the poll(2) call to be interrupted (returning errno
EINTR). However handling EINTR the same way as EAGAIN was not
the solution to this problem since we found previously that this
would break Ctrl-C handling (commit 47fec8eac2).
The correct solution is to mask out SIGWINCH for the duration
of the poll(2) system call. The per-thread mask is changed and
restored immediately after the call. Since we are using
pthread_sigmask, this should not affect other threads, and
since we restore the signal mask immediately afterwards it should
not affect the current thread visibly either. Other possibly
problematic signals are SIGCHLD and SIGPIPE and these are
masked too.
Note use of ignore_value: It's not fatal if we cannot mask out
SIGWINCH, and in any case pthread_sigmask never fails on Linux
as long as you supply the correct arguments.
I tested this patch and it cures the original problem with
virt-top.
Create the filesystem on the partition used by the pool
* configure.ac: check for mkfs availability
* libvirt.spec.in: add extra require on util-linux for mkfs
* src/storage/storage_backend_fs.c: run mkfs with the expected
fs type when creating a filesystem pool
We were using 'Y' to mean exabyte, when the correct abbreviation would be
'E' ('Y' is yettabyte, which is exabyte * 1024 * 1024). While it isn't
strictly backwards compatible, I highly doubt anyone was actually using
this broken behavior, so I don't see any harm in in dropping 'Y' handling.
Recently we introduced O_DSYNC flag when creating raw storage files to
avoid filling all disk cache with dirty pages. However, the patch got
lost when virStorageBackendCreateRaw was reworked using
virFileOperation. Let's use O_DSYNC again.
* src/xen/xend_internal.c (xenDaemonDomainSetAutostart): Avoid a NULL
dereference upon non-SEXPR_VALUE'd on_xend_start. This bug was
introduced by commit 37ce5600c0.
There were a few operations on the storage volume file that were still
being done as root, which will fail if the file is on a root-squashed
NFS share. The result was that attempts to create a storage volume of
type "raw" on a root-squashed NFS share would fail.
This patch uses the newly introduced "hook" function in
virFileOperation to execute all those file operations in the child
process that's run under the uid that owns the file (and, presumably,
has permission to write to the NFS share)
* src/storage/storage_backend.c: use virFileOperation() in
virStorageBackendCreateRaw, turning virStorageBackendCreateRaw()
into a new createRawFileOpHook() hook
It turns out it is also useful to be able to perform other operations
on a file created while running as a different uid (eg, write things
to that file), and possibly to do this to a file that already
exists. This patch adds an optional hook function to the renamed (for
more accuracy of purpose) virFileOperation; the hook will be called
after the file has been opened (possibly created) and gid/mode
checked/set, before closing it.
As with the other operations on the file, if the VIR_FILE_OP_AS_UID
flag is set, this hook function will be called in the context of a
child process forked from the process that called virFileOperation.
The implication here is that, while all data in memory is available to
this hook function, any modification to that data will not be seen by
the caller - the only indication in memory of what happened in the
hook will be the return value (which the hook should set to 0 on
success, or one of the standard errno values on failure).
Another piece of making the function more flexible was to add an
"openflags" argument. This arg should contain exactly the flags to be
passed to open(2), eg O_RDWR | O_EXCL, etc.
In the process of adding the hook to virFileOperation, I also realized
that the bits to fix up file owner/group/mode settings after creation
were being done in the parent process, which could fail, so I moved
them to the child process where they should be.
* src/util/util.[ch]: rename and rework virFileCreate-->virFileOperation,
and redo flags in virDirCreate
* storage/storage_backend.c, storage/storage_backend_fs.c: update the
calls to virFileOperation/virDirCreate to reflect changes in the API,
but don't yet take advantage of the hook.
Fix multiple veth problem.

* src/openvz/openvz_conf.c src/openvz/openvz_conf.h: add the

If the hostname as returned by "gethostname" resolves
to "localhost" (as it does with the broken Fedora-12
installer), then live migration will fail because the
source will try to migrate to itself. Detect this
situation up-front and abort the live migration before
we do any real work.
* src/util/util.h src/util/util.c: add a new virGetHostnameLocalhost
with an optional localhost check, and rewire virGetHostname() to use
it
* src/libvirt_private.syms: expose the new function
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: use it in qemudDomainMigratePrepare2()
* src/xen/xend_internal.c (xenDaemonDomainSetAutostart): Rewrite to
avoid dereferencing the result of sexpr_lookup. While in this
particular case, it was guaranteed never to be NULL, due to the
preceding "if sexpr_node(...)" guard, it's cleaner to skip the
sexpr_node call altogether, and also saves a lookup.
This patch sets or unsets the IFF_VNET_HDR flag depending on what device
is used in the VM. The manipulation of the flag is done in the open
function and is only fatal if the IFF_VNET_HDR flag could not be cleared
although it has to be (or if an ioctl generally fails). In that case the
macvtap tap is closed again and the macvtap interface torn.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: pass qemuCmdFlags to
qemudPhysIfaceConnect()
* src/util/macvtap.c src/util/macvtap.h: add vnet_hdr boolean to
openMacvtapTap(), and private function configMacvtapTap()
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: add extra qemuCmdFlags when calling
qemudPhysIfaceConnect()
For __virExec() this is a semantic NOP except for when fork()
fails. __virExec() would previously forget to restore the signal mask
in this case; virFork() corrects this behavior.
virFileCreate() and virDirCreate() gain the code to reset the logging
and properly deal with the signal handling race condition.
This also removes a log message that had a typo ("cannot fork o create
file '%s'") - this error is now logged in a more generic manner in
virFork() (more generic, but really just as informative, since the
fact that it's forking to create a file is immaterial to the fact that
it simply can't fork)
* src/util/util.c: use the generic virFork() in the 3 functions
virFork() contains bookkeeping that must be done any time a process
forks. Currently this includes:
1) Call virLogLock() prior to fork() and virLogUnlock() just after,
to avoid a deadlock if some other thread happens to hold that lock
during the fork.
2) Reset the logging hooks and send all child process log messages to
stderr.
3) Block all signals prior to fork(), then either a) reset the signal
mask for the parent process, or b) clear the signal mask for the
child process.
Note that the signal mask handling in __virExec erroneously fails to
restore the signal mask when fork() fails. virFork() fixes this
problem.
Other than this, it attempts to behave as closely to fork() as
possible (including preserving errno for the caller), with a couple
exceptions:
1) The return value is 0 (success) or -1 (failure), while the pid is
returned via the pid_t* argument. Like fork(), if pid < 0 there is
no child process, otherwise both the child and the parent will
return to the caller, and both should look at the return value,
which will indicate if some of the extra processing outlined above
encountered an error.
2) If virFork() returns with pid < 0 or with a return value < 0
indicating an error condition, the error has already been
reported. You can log an additional message if you like, but it
isn't necessary, and may be awkwardly extraneous.
Note that virFork()'s child process will *never* call _exit() - if a
child process is created, it will return to the caller.
* util.c util.h: add virFork() function, based on what is currently
done in __virExec().

and the following for a virtio channel:
-chardev pty,id=channel0 \

Currently we just error with ex. 'virbr0: No such device'.
Since we are using public API calls here, we need to ensure that any
raised error is properly saved and restored, since API entry points
always reset messages.
virGetLastError returns NULL if no error has been set, not on
allocation error like virSetError assumed. Use virLastErrorObject
instead. This fixes virSetError when no error is currently stored.
Rework and simplification of teardown of the macvtap device.
Basically all devices with the same MAC address and link device are kept
alive and not attempted to be torn down. If a macvtap device linked to a
physical interface with a certain MAC address 'M' is to be created it
will automatically fail if the interface is 'up'ed and another macvtap
with the same properties (MAC addr 'M', link dev) happens to be 'up'.
This will prevent the VM from starting or the device from being attached
to a running VM. Stale interfaces are assumed to be there for some
reason and not stem from libvirt.
In the VM shutdown path, it's assuming that an interface name is always
available so that if the device type is DIRECT it can be torn down
using its name.

The QEMU JSON monitor changed balloon commands to return/accept
bytes instead of kilobytes. Update libvirt to cope with this
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Expect/use bytes for ballooning
* src/uml/uml_driver.c (umlMonitorCommand): This function would

Hence, no caller would know to free the corresponding argument.
When returning -1, be sure to free all allocated resources.

The result of dm_get_next_target was never used (and isn't needed),

Similar to the Set*Mem commands, this implementation was bogus and
misleading. Make it clear this is a hotplug only operation, and that the
hotplug piece isn't even implemented.

always the risk that our info will be out of date, possibly preventing
legitimate CPU values.

SetMem and SetMaxMem are hotplug only APIs, any persistent config
changes are supposed to go via XML definition. The original implementation
of these calls were incorrect and had the nasty side effect of making
a psuedo persistent change that would be lost after libvirtd restart
(I didn't know any better).

Current error reporting for JSON mode returns the full JSON
command string and full JSON error string. This is not very
user friendly, so this change makes the error report only
contain the basic command name, and friendly error message
description string. The full JSON data is logged instead.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Always return the 'desc' field from
the JSON error message to users.
When in JSON mode, QEMU requires that 'qmp_capabilities' is run as
the first command in the monitor. This is a no-op when run in the
text mode monitor
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Run capabilities negotiation when
connecting to the monitor
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h: Add

This part adds support for qemu making a macvtap tap device available
via file descriptor passed to qemu command line. This also attempts to
tear down the macvtap device when a VM terminates. This includes support
for attachment and detachment to/from running VM.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.[ch] src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: add support in the

This part adds the helper code to setup and tear down macvtap devices
using direct communication with the device driver via netlink sockets.
The rather short messages received from the netlink layer are now

* src/util/macvtap.h src/util/macvtap.c: provides the new module

an int.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c src/conf/domain_conf.h: extend parsing code
* src/util/macvtap.h: empty header to not break compilation
This patch adds build support for libvirt checking for certain contents
of /usr/include/linux/if_link.h to see whether macvtap support is

The virRaiseError macro inside of virSecurityReportError expands to
virRaiseErrorFull and includes the __FILE__, __FUNCTION__ and __LINE__
information. But this three values are always the same for every call
to virSecurityReportError and do not reflect the actual error context.
Converting virSecurityReportError into a macro results in getting the
correct __FILE__, __FUNCTION__ and __LINE__ information.
Current PCI addresses are allocated at time of VM startup.
To make them truely persistent, it is neccessary to do this
at time of virDomainDefine/virDomainCreate. The code in
qemuStartVMDaemon still remains in order to cope with upgrades
from older libvirt releases
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Rename existing qemuAssignPCIAddresses
to qemuDetectPCIAddresses. Add new qemuAssignPCIAddresses which
does auto-allocation upfront. Call qemuAssignPCIAddresses from
qemuDomainDefine and qemuDomainCreate to assign PCI addresses that
can then be persisted. Don't clear PCI addresses at shutdown if
they are intended to be persistent
The old text mode monitor prompts for a password when disks are
encrypted. This interactive approach doesn't work for JSON mode
monitor. Thus there is a new 'block_passwd' command that can be
used.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Split out code for looking up a disk
secret from findVolumeQcowPassphrase, into a new method
getVolumeQcowPassphrase. Enhance qemuInitPasswords() to also
set the disk encryption password via the monitor

With QEMU >= 0.12 the host and guest side of disks no longer have
the same naming convention. Specifically the host side will now
get a 'drive-' prefix added to its name. The 'info blockstats'
monitor command returns the host side name, so it is neccessary
to strip this off when looking up stats since libvirt stores the
guest side name !
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Move 'drive-' prefix
string to a defined constant
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c: Strip
off 'drive-' prefix (if found) when looking up disk stats
Currently the timeout for reading startup output is 3 seconds. If the
host is under any sort of load, we can easily trigger this. Lets bump
it to 30 seconds.
Since the polling loop checks to see if the process has died, we shouldn't
erroneously hit this timeout if qemu bombs (only if it is stuck in some
infinite loop).

Similar fix as previous one but for fork() usage when creating
a file or directory
* src/util/util.c: virLogLock() and virLogUnlock() around fork()

Ad pointed out by Dan Berrange:
So if some thread in libvirtd is currently executing a logging call,
while another thread calls virExec(), that other thread no longer
exists in the child, but its lock is never released. So when the
child then does virLogReset() it deadlocks.
The only way I see to address this, is for the parent process to call
virLogLock(), immediately before fork(), and then virLogUnlock()
afterwards in both parent & child. This will ensure that no other
thread
can be holding the lock across fork().
* src/util/logging.[ch] src/libvirt_private.syms: export virLogLock() and
