Create a new set of sub-packages containing the new storage driver
modules so that certain heavy-weight backends (gluster, rbd) can be
installed separately only if required.
To keep backward compatibility the 'libvirt-driver-storage' package
will be turned into a virtual package pulling in all the new storage
backend sub-packages. The storage driver module will be moved into
libvirt-driver-storage-core including the filesystem backend which is
mandatory.
This then allows to make libvirt-daemon-driver-qemu depend only on the
core of the storage driver.
All other meta-packages still depend on the full storage driver and thus
pull in all the backends.
If driver modules are enabled turn storage driver backends into
dynamically loadable objects. This will allow greater modularity for
binary distributions, where heavyweight dependencies as rbd and gluster
can be avoided by selecting only a subset of drivers if the rest is not
necessary.
The storage modules are installed into 'LIBDIR/libvirt/storage-backend/'
and users can override the location by using
'LIBVIRT_STORAGE_BACKEND_DIR' environment variable.
rpm based distros will at this point install all the backends when
libvirt-daemon-driver-storage package is installed.
Explicitly enable --with-storage-scsi and disable --without-storage-zfs
and --without-storage-vstorage so that the configure script doesn't
check for them.
Note that --with-storage-dir is enabled by default.
For the namespaces feature to work properly we need to be able
to make a perfect copy of the original /dev, including ACLs.
By adding a BuildRequires on libacl-devel we ensure that ACL
support will be enabled at configure time and made available
to the QEMU driver.
When redoing the website we deleted the libvirtLogo.png file
not remembering that the test driver screenshot API impl
relied on it.
Rather than having the test driver use the logo as a side
effect, give it its own dedicated image to use. This is
installed in /usr/share/libvirt/test-screenshot.png and
is taken from a NeXT Cube running WorldWideWeb[1]. The
very first web browser in existance, running on the
hardware it was originally written on.

It is already discussed in "[RFC] daemon: remove hardcode dep on libvirt-guests" [1].
Mgmt can use means to save/restore domains on system shutdown/boot other than
libvirt-guests.service. Thus we need to specify appropriate ordering dependency between
libvirtd, domains and save/restore service. This patch takes approach suggested
in RFC and introduces a systemd target, so that ordering can be built next way:
libvirtd -> domain -> virt-guest-shutdown.target -> save-restore.service.
This way domains are decoupled from specific shutdown service via intermediate
target.

Commit e8861f6971 changed our spec file to compile and run
tests in parallel. That's a very good step forward, but why
stop there? Let's run *all* make jobs in parallel and really
put those expensive cores to use!
On my laptop, this shaves ~10s off 'make rpm'.
So far, the main code is built in parallel, which makes it pretty
fast. But with a lots of tests we have now I've noticed this part
takes too much time to build. The problem was that tests were
build and run in a single job.
Also, 'make' in the first hunk is useless. The test suite is not
built due to 'make all' because there's no .git in the sources
unpacked from a tar.xz archive. It's 'make check' which triggers
tests build.

Currently, we have libvirt-client library which serves as a

have. Therefore we have couple of silly dependencies, for
instance libvirt-daemon depends on libvirt-client. Only because
the shared library is in the client package.
To solve this, new package libvirt-libs is introduced where all
the libraries are going to live. The client package is then set
to depend on this new package, just like the rest of packages
that suffer the same problem.

If libvirt-daemon-config-network is installed while libvirtd is already
running, the daemon doesn't notice the network. Users then have to
manually restart libvirtd (or reboot) to pick up the network.
Instead let's trigger a daemon restart when the package is first installed.
Then the default network is available immediately if libvirtd was already
running.

This reverts commit 1e9808d3a1.
We shouldn't advertise libvirtd.socket activation, since currently
it means VM/network/... autostart won't work as expected.
We tried to find a middle ground by installing the config file without
an [Install] section, since systemd won't allow .socket to be enabled
without one... or at least it did do that; presently on f24 it allows
activating the socket quite happily. This also caused user confusion[1]
Just remove the socket file. I've filed a new RFE to track coming up
with a solution to the autostart problem[2], we can point users at that
if there's more confusion:

Using one Makefile per example subdirectory essentially serializes 'make'
calls. Convert to one example/Makefile that builds and distributes
all the subdir files. This reduces example/ rebuild time from about 5.8
seconds to 1.5 seconds on my machine.
One slight difference is that we no longer ship Makefile.am with the
examples in the rpm. This was virtually useless anyways since the Makefile
was very specific to libvirt infrastructure, so wasn't generically
reusable anyways.
Tested with 'make distcheck' and 'make rpm'
When installing the libvirt-daemon RPM, we have a %post rule to
enable the libvirtd.service, virtlockd.socket and virtlogd.socket
files. This is only done, however, when the RPM is first installed,
not when upgrading RPMs. So virtlogd will not get activated on
upgrading, which is a problem as libvirt qemu driver will expect
it to be available by default.
This adds a trigger that is run when uninstalling libvirt-daemon
older than 1.3.0 that will enable & start virtlogd.socket if
libvirtd is enabled and/or started. Using the trigger rather
than %post ensures that it only runs once, allowing admins to
disable it explicitly thereafter without future upgrades
re-enabling it.

There has been a report on the list [1] that we are not
installing the wireshark dissector into the correct plugin
directory. And in fact we are not. The problem is, the plugin
directory path is constructed at compile time. However, it's
dependent on the wireshark version, e.g.
/usr/lib/wireshark/plugins/1.12.6
This is rather unfortunate, because if libvirt RPMs were built
with one version, but installed on a system with newer one, the
plugins are not really loaded. This problem lead fedora packagers
to unify plugin path to:
/usr/lib/wireshark/plugins/
Cool! But this was enabled just in wireshark-1.12.6-4. Therefore,
we must require at least that version.
And while at it, on some distributions, the wireshark.pc file
already has a variable that defines where plugin dir is. Use that
if possible.

This is a folloup to commit 5f719596, which checks for a route
conflicting with the standard libvirt default network subnet
(192.168.122.0/24). It turns out that $() strips the trailing newline
from the output of "ip route show", so there would be no match if the
route we were looking for was the final line of output. This can be
solved by adding ${nl} to the end of the output (just as we were
already adding it at the beginning of the output).
Sometimes libvirt is installed on a host that is already using the
network 192.168.122.0/24. If the libvirt-daemon-config-network package
is installed, this creates a conflict, since that package has been
hard-coded to create a virtual network that also uses
192.168.122.0/24. In the past libvirt has attempted to warn of /
remediate this situation by checking for conflicting routes when the
network is started, but it turns out that isn't always useful (for
example in the case that the *other* interface/network creating the
conflict hasn't yet been started at the time libvirtd start its own
networks).
This patch attempts to catch the problem earlier - at install
time. During the %post install script for
libvirt-daemon-config-network, we use a case statement to look through
the output of "ip route show" for a route that exactly matches
192.168.122.0/24, and if found we search for a similar route that
*doesn't* match (e.g. 192.168.124.0/24) (note that the search starts
with "124" instead of 123 because of reports of people already
modifying their L1 host's network to 192.168.123.0/24 in an attempt to
solve exactly the problem we are also trying to solve). When we find
an available route, we just replace all occurrences of "122" in the
default.xml that is being created with the newly found 192.168
subnet. This could obviously be made more complicated - examine the
template defaul.xml to automatically determine the existing network
address and mask rather than hard coding it in the specfile, etc, but
this scripting is simpler and gets the job done as long as we continue
to use 192.168.122.0/24 in the template. (If anyone with mad bash
skillz wants to suggest something to do that, by all means please do).
This is intended to at least "further reduce" occurrence of the
problems detailed in:

In my previous patch (37d8c75fad) I've tried to fix permissions
for nvram store path. The aim was to give the nvram directory
execute permission so that domain running under other users
than qemu:qemu can access their nvram file. However, my fix
was incomplete as the path belongs to libvirt-driver-qemu
package too and I've fixed it only for the libvirt-daemon
package.

I've noticed two problem with the automatically created NVRAM varstore
file. The first, even though I run qemu as root:root for some reason I
get Permission denied when trying to open the _VARS.fd file. The
problem is, the upper directory misses execute permissions, which in
combination with us dropping some capabilities result in EPERM.
The next thing is, that if I switch SELinux to enforcing mode, I get
another EPERM because the vars file is not labeled correctly. It is
passed to qemu as disk and hence should be labelled as disk. QEMU may
write to it eventually, so this is different to kernel or initrd.

When using split UEFI image, it may come handy if libvirt manages per
domain _VARS file automatically. While the _CODE file is RO and can be
shared among multiple domains, you certainly don't want to do that on
the _VARS file. This latter one needs to be per domain. So at the
domain startup process, if it's determined that domain needs _VARS
file it's copied from this master _VARS file. The location of the
master file is configurable in qemu.conf.
Temporary, on per domain basis the location of master NVRAM file can
be overridden by this @template attribute I'm inventing to the
<nvram/> element. All it does is holding path to the master NVRAM file
from which local copy is created. If that's the case, the map in
qemu.conf is not consulted.

Since times when vbox moved to the daemon (due to some licensing
issue) the subdrivers that vbox implements were registered, but not
opened since our generic subdrivers took priority. I've tried to fix
this in 65b7d553f3 but it was not correct. Apparently moving
vbox driver registration upfront changes the default connection URI
which makes some users sad. So, this commit breaks vbox into pieces
and register vbox's network and storage drivers first, and vbox driver
then at the end. This way, the vbox driver is registered in the order
it always was, but its subdrivers are registered prior the generic
ones.
