The 'commandhelper' checks effectively whether the parent process is
still around to report whether it was daemonized or not.
This creates a unlikely race condition in cases when we do actually
daemonize the process as the intermediate process used for the
daemonization might not have terminated yet which would report wrong
result leading to test failure.
For now there's just 'test4' which actually daemonizes the process.
Add an argument '--check-daemonize' which asks for retries of the
daemonization check in cases where we expect that the commandhelper is
going to be daemonized and use it in 'test4' to make the test more
reliable.
I've observed the test failure sporadically when my box is under load
e.g. while building two trees at once.

CVE-2020-14339
When building domain's private /dev in a namespace, libdevmapper
is consulted for getting full dependency tree of domain's disks.
The reason is that for a multipath devices all dependent devices
must be created in the namespace and allowed in CGroups.
However, this approach is very fragile as building of namespace
happens in the forked off child process, after mass close of FDs
and just before dropping privileges and execing QEMU. And it so
happens that when calling libdevmapper APIs, one of them opens
/dev/mapper/control and saves the FD into a global variable. The
FD is kept open until the lib is unlinked or dm_lib_release() is
called explicitly. We are doing neither.
However, the virDevMapperGetTargets() function is called also
from libvirtd (when setting up CGroups) and thus has to be thread
safe. Unfortunately, libdevmapper APIs are not thread safe (nor
async signal safe) and thus we can't use them. Reimplement what
libdevmapper would do using plain C (ioctl()-s, /proc/devices
parsing, /dev/mapper dirwalking, and so on).

The storage pool code now attempts to disable COW by default on btrfs,
but management applications may wish to override this behaviour. Thus we
introduce a concept of storage pool features:
<features>
<cow state='yes|no'/>
</features>
If the <cow> feature policy is set, it will be enforced. It will always
return an hard error if COW cannot be explicitly set or unset.

This calls virFileSetCOW when building a pool with a request to attempt,
but not require, COW to be disabled. The effect is that nothing changes
on non-btrfs filesystems, but btrfs will get COW disabled on the
directory. This setting is then inherited by all newly created files in
the pool, avoiding the need for mgmt app to set "nocow" on a per-volume
basis.

When disabling COW on individual files, we now use the virFileSetCOW
method. Note that this change has a slight semantic difference to the
old implementation.
The original code reported errors but returned success when disabling
COW failed.
With this new code, we will always report an error if the user requested
disabling of COW and we could not honour it, either because btrfs
returned an error, or because the filesystem is not btrfs.

btrfs defaults to performing copy-on-write for files. This is often
undesirable for VM images, so we need to be able to control whether this
behaviour is used.
The virFileSetCOW() will allow for this. We use a tristate, since out of
the box, we want the default behaviour attempt to disable cow, but only
on btrfs, silently do nothing on non-btrfs. If someone explicitly asks
to disable/enable cow, then we want to raise a hard error on non-btrfs.

This is only used in the ESX driver where, when set to "no", it will
ignore all the checks libvirt does about the origin of the MAC address
(whether or not it's in a VMWare OUI) and forward the original one to
the ESX server telling it not to check it either.
This allows keeping a deterministic MAC address which can be useful for
licensed software which might dislike changes.

<source bridge='br1'/>
</interface>
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd' type='generated'/>
<source bridge='br2'/>
</interface>

ethernet1.present = "true"
ethernet1.networkName = "br1"
ethernet1.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet1.addressType = "static"
ethernet1.address = "00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe"
ethernet1.checkMACAddress = "false"
ethernet2.present = "true"
ethernet2.networkName = "br2"
ethernet2.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet2.addressType = "static"
ethernet2.address = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
ethernet2.checkMACAddress = "false"
which is flawed, as both type='static' and type='generated' in the XML
turn into 'static' in the VMX config.
The existence of the 'static' attribute is further overriding whether
the checkMACAddress config option is set as a side effect.
Both these pieces of flawed logic were introduced in
commit 454e5961ab

Date: Mon Jul 13 16:28:53 2020 +0200
Add a type attribute on the mac address element
which intentionally added the 'checkMACAddress' side effect based on
the 'type' attribute.
With this change, we're reverting the handling of checkMACAddress
to match what existed historically. The 'type' attribute now directly
maps to the addressType attribute, so the above config becomes:
ethernet1.present = "true"
ethernet1.networkName = "br1"
ethernet1.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet1.addressType = "static"
ethernet1.address = "00:0c:29:dd:ee:fe"

ethernet2.networkName = "br2"
ethernet2.connectionType = "bridged"
ethernet2.addressType = "generated"
ethernet2.generatedAddress = "aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:fd"
ethernet2.generatedAddressOffset = "0"

getting a broken build if we don't enable one of the -fstack-protector*

old brokeness which evidentally got fixed at some time without noticing.
