Changes from v1 to v2:
- changed function name prefixes to 'iface' from previous 'Iface'
- Further to make make syntax-check pass:
- indentation fix in interface.h
- added entry to POTFILES.in
I am consolidating network interface related functions used in nwfilter
and macvtap code in utils/interface.c. All function names are prefixed
with 'Iface'. The following functions are now available through
interface.h:
int ifaceCtrl(const char *name, bool up);
int ifaceUp(const char *name);
int ifaceDown(const char *name);
int ifaceCheck(bool reportError, const char *ifname,
const unsigned char *macaddr, int ifindex);
int ifaceGetIndex(bool reportError, const char *ifname, int *ifindex);
I added 'int ifindex' as parameter to ifaceCheck to the original
function and modified the code accordingly.
This patch implements support for learning a VM's IP address. It uses
the pcap library to listen on the VM's backend network interface (tap)
or the physical ethernet device (macvtap) and tries to capture packets
with source or destination MAC address of the VM and learn from DHCP
Offers, ARP traffic, or first-sent IPv4 packet what the IP address of
the VM's interface is. This then allows to instantiate the network
traffic filtering rules without the user having to provide the IP
parameter somewhere in the filter description or in the interface
description as a parameter. This only supports to detect the parameter
IP, which is for the assumed single IPv4 address of a VM. There is not
support for interfaces that may have multiple IP addresses (IP
aliasing) or IPv6 that may then require more than one valid IP address
to be detected. A VM can have multiple independent interfaces that each
uses a different IP address and in that case it will be attempted to
detect each one of the address independently.
So, when for example an interface description in the domain XML has
looked like this up to now:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'>
<parameter name='IP' value='10.2.3.4'/>
</filterref>
</interface>
you may omit the IP parameter:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='mybridge'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<filterref filter='clean-traffic'/>
</interface>
Internally I am walking the 'tree' of a VM's referenced network filters
and determine with the given variables which variables are missing. Now,
the above IP parameter may be missing and this causes a libvirt-internal
thread to be started that uses the pcap library's API to listen to the
backend interface (in case of macvtap to the physical interface) in an
attempt to determine the missing IP parameter. If the backend interface
disappears the thread terminates assuming the VM was brought down. In
case of a macvtap device a timeout is being used to wait for packets
from the given VM (filtering by VM's interface MAC address). If the VM's
macvtap device disappeared the thread also terminates. In all other
cases it tries to determine the IP address of the VM and will then apply
the rules late on the given interface, which would have happened
immediately if the IP parameter had been explicitly given. In case an
error happens while the firewall rules are applied, the VM's backend
interface is 'down'ed preventing it to communicate. Reasons for failure
for applying the network firewall rules may that an ebtables/iptables
command failes or OOM errors. Essentially the same failure reasons may
occur as when the firewall rules are applied immediately on VM start,
except that due to the late application of the filtering rules the VM
now is already running and cannot be hindered anymore from starting.
Bringing down the whole VM would probably be considered too drastic.
While a VM's IP address is attempted to be determined only limited
updates to network filters are allowed. In particular it is prevented
that filters are modified in such a way that they would introduce new
variables.
A caveat: The algorithm does not know which one is the appropriate IP
address of a VM. If the VM spoofs an IP address in its first ARP traffic
or IPv4 packets its filtering rules will be instantiated for this IP
address, thus 'locking' it to the found IP address. So, it's still
'safer' to explicitly provide the IP address of a VM's interface in the
filter description if it is known beforehand.

The Python script generates the mappings based on the type descriptions
in the esx_vi_generator.input file.
This also improves the inheritance handling and allows to get rid of the
ugly, inflexible, and error prone _base/_super approach. Now every struct
that represents a SOAP type contains a _type member, that allows to
recreate C++-like dynamic dispatch for "method" calls in C.
* src/Makefile.am: adds a few missing header files in the associated
file variables, it's needed otherwise the missing headers breaks
compilation from a distribution tarball
This exports 3 basic routines:
- virHookInitialize() initializing the hook support by looking for
scripts availability
- virHookPresent() used to test if there is a hook for a given driver
- virHookCall() which actually calls a synchronous script hook with
the needed parameters
Note that this doesn't expose any public API except for the locations
and arguments passed to the scripts
* src/Makefile.am: add the 2 new files
* src/util/hooks.h src/util/hooks.c: implements the 3 functions
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export the 3 symbols internally
* po/POTFILES.in: add src/util/hooks.c to translatables modules
This patch implements the core driver and provides
- management functionality for managing the filter XMLs
- compiling the internal filter representation into ebtables rules
- applying ebtables rules on a network (tap,macvtap) interface
- tearing down ebtables rules that were applied on behalf of an
interface
- updating of filters while VMs are running and causing the firewalls to
be rebuilt
- other bits and pieces

* src/Makefile.am (augeas-check): New target, just to give the existing
rule a name. At the same time, prefix the commands with $(AM_V_GEN),
to avoid unexpected build output with V=0 which is the default.
With the recent changes to the linking defaults in Fedora 13 (namely
enabling --no-add-needed behaviour by default), we have to pass the
dlopen()-providing libraries directly at the link of the module; use the
same AC_SEARCH_LIBS function as used before to look for it and add it to
the Makefile.
This patch adds build support for libvirt checking for certain contents
of /usr/include/linux/if_link.h to see whether macvtap support is
compilable on that system. One can disable macvtap support in libvirt
via --without-macvtap passed to configure.
* configure.ac src/Makefile.am: new build support
* src/libvirt_macvtap.syms: list of exported symbols
* src/util/macvtap.c: empty module to not break compilation
This new security driver is responsible for managing UID/GID changes
to the QEMU process, and any files/disks/devices assigned to it.

changes
* qemu/qemu_security_dac.h, qemu/qemu_security_dac.c: New DAC driver
for QEMU guests
* Makefile.am: Add new files
The latter is not officially "wrong", but *is* terribly anachronistic.
I think automake documentation or comments call that syntax obsolescent.
* cfg.mk (_makefile_at_at_check_exceptions): Exempt @SCHEMADIR@
and @SYSCONFDIR@ uses -- there are no Makefile variables for those.
* docs/Makefile.am: Use $(INSTALL), not @INSTALL@.
* examples/dominfo/Makefile.am: Similar.

All other stateful drivers are linked directly to libvirtd
instead of libvirt.so. Link the secret driver to libvirtd too.
* daemon/Makefile.am: link the secret driver to libvirtd
* daemon/libvirtd.c: add #ifdef WITH_SECRETS blocks
* src/Makefile.am: don't link the secret driver to libvirt.so
* src/libvirt_private.syms: remove the secretRegister symbol
Each driver supporting CPU selection must fill in host CPU capabilities.
When filling them, drivers for hypervisors running on the same node as
libvirtd can use cpuNodeData() to obtain raw CPU data. Other drivers,
such as VMware, need to implement their own way of getting such data.
Raw data can be decoded into virCPUDefPtr using cpuDecode() function.
When implementing virConnectCompareCPU(), a hypervisor driver can just
call cpuCompareXML() function with host CPU capabilities.
For each guest for which a driver supports selecting CPU models, it must
set the appropriate feature in guest's capabilities:
virCapabilitiesAddGuestFeature(guest, "cpuselection", 1, 0)
Actions needed when a domain is being created depend on whether the
hypervisor understands raw CPU data (currently CPUID for i686, x86_64
architectures) or symbolic names has to be used.
Typical use by hypervisors which prefer CPUID (such as VMware and Xen):
- convert guest CPU configuration from domain's XML into a set of raw
data structures each representing one of the feature policies:
cpuEncode(conn, architecture, guest_cpu_config,
&forced_data, &required_data, &optional_data,
&disabled_data, &forbidden_data)
- create a mask or whatever the hypervisor expects to see and pass it
to the hypervisor
Typical use by hypervisors with symbolic model names (such as QEMU):
- get raw CPU data for a computed guest CPU:
cpuGuestData(conn, host_cpu, guest_cpu_config, &data)
- decode raw data into virCPUDefPtr with a possible restriction on
allowed model names:
cpuDecode(conn, guest, data, n_allowed_models, allowed_models)
- pass guest->model and guest->features to the hypervisor

Long ago we tried to use Fedora's lokkit utility in order to register
our iptables rules so that 'service iptables restart' would
automatically load our rules.
There was one fatal flaw - if the user had configured iptables without
lokkit, then we would clobber that configuration by running lokkit.
We quickly disabled lokkit support, but never removed it. Let's do
that now.
The 'my virtual network stops working when I restart iptables' still
remains. For all the background on this saga, see:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/227011
* src/util/iptables.c: remove lokkit support
* configure.in: remove --enable-lokkit
* libvirt.spec.in: remove the dirs used only for saving rules for lokkit
* src/Makefile.am: ditto
* src/libvirt_private.syms, src/network/bridge_driver.c,
src/util/iptables.h: remove references to iptablesSaveRules
Initial support for the new QEMU monitor protocol using JSON
as the data encoding format instead of plain text
* po/POTFILES.in: Add src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Hack to turn on QMP
mode. Replace with a version number check on >= 0.12 later
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c: Delegate to json monitor if enabled
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h: Add
impl of QMP protocol
* src/Makefile.am: Add src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.{c,h}
This introduces simple API for handling JSON data. There is
an internal data structure 'virJSONValuePtr' which stores a
arbitrary nested JSON value (number, string, array, object,
nul, etc). There are APIs for constructing/querying objects
and APIs for parsing/formatting string formatted JSON data.
This uses the YAJL library for parsing/formatting from
http://lloyd.github.com/yajl/
* src/util/json.h, src/util/json.c: Data structures and APIs
for representing JSON data, and parsing/formatting it
* configure.in: Add check for yajl library

The qemu_driver.c code should not contain any code that interacts
with the QEMU monitor at a low level. A previous commit moved all

tunable "log_with_libvirtd" that controls whether an lxc controller will
log only to the container log file, or whether it will honor libvirtd's
log output configuration. This provides a way to have libvirtd and its
children log to a single file. The default is to log to the container
log file.
* src/Makefile.am libvirt.spec.in: add the new file
* src/lxc/lxc_conf.[ch] src/lxc/lxc_driver.c: read the new log value
from the configuration file and pass the log informations when
