53bd0cebd3 util: add functions to keep capabilities
This patch introduces virSetCapabilities() function and implements
virCommandAllowCap() function.

Existing virClearCapabilities() is function to clear all capabilities.
Instead virSetCapabilities() is function to set arbitrary capabilities.

4289114518 command: move all docs into .c file
We already have a precedent of function documentation in C files,
where it is closer to the implementation (witness libvirt.h vs.
libvirt.c); maintaining docs in both files risks docs going stale.

While I was at it, I used consistent doxygen style on all comments.

* src/util/command.h: Remove duplicate docs, and move unique
documentation...
* src/util/command.c: ...here.
Suggested by Matthias Bolte.

e208c38b49 command: introduce virPidWait, virPidAbort
When using virCommandRunAsync and saving the pid for later, it
is useful to be able to reap that pid in the same way that it
would have been auto-reaped by virCommand if we had passed
NULL for the pid argument in the first place.

* src/util/command.c (virPidWait, virPidAbort): New functions,
created from...
(virCommandWait, virCommandAbort): ...bodies of these.
(includes): Drop duplicate <stdlib.h>.  Ensure that our pid_t
assumptions hold.
(virCommandRunAsync): Improve documentation.
* src/util/command.h (virPidWait, virPidAbort): New prototypes.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export them.
* docs/internals/command.html.in: Document them.

02e86910e2 Move virRun, virExec*, virFork to util/command
Seems reasonable to have all command wrappers in the same place

v2:
    Dont move SetInherit

v3:
    Comment spelling fix
    Adjust WARN0 comment
    Remove spurious #include movement
    Don't include sys/types.h
    Combine virExec enums

285c2fdf0f Allow handshake with child process during startup
Allow the parent process to perform a bi-directional handshake
with the child process during fork/exec. The child process
will fork and do its initial setup. Immediately prior to the
exec(), it will stop & wait for a handshake from the parent
process. The parent process will spawn the child and wait
until the child reaches the handshake point. It will do
whatever extra setup work is required, before signalling the
child to continue.

The implementation of this is done using two pairs of blocking
pipes. The first pair is used to block the parent, until the
child writes a single byte. Then the second pair pair is used
to block the child, until the parent confirms with another
single byte.

* src/util/command.c, src/util/command.h,
  src/libvirt_private.syms: Add APIs to perform a handshake

f095398a47 command: Add virCommandExec helper
Actually execs the argv/env we've generated, replacing the current process.
Kind of has a limited usage, but allows us to use virCommand in LXC
driver to launch the 'init' process

35c1b35e25 command: Add virCommandEnvAddFormat
Similar to virCommandArgAddFormat. We will use this shortly.

v2:
    Convert virCommandEnvAddPair to use the new function

9ed545185f command: add virCommandAbort for cleanup paths
Sometimes, an asynchronous helper is started (such as a compressor
or iohelper program), but a later error means that we want to
abort that child.  Make this easier.

Note that since daemons and virCommandRunAsync can't mix, the only
time virCommandFree can reap a process is if someone did
virCommandRunAsync for a non-daemon and didn't stash the pid.

* src/util/command.h (virCommandAbort): New prototype.
* src/util/command.c (_virCommand): Add new field.
(virCommandRunAsync, virCommandWait): Track whether pid was used.
(virCommandFree): Reap child if caller did not request pid.
(virCommandAbort): New function.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (command.h): Export it.
* tests/commandtest.c (test19): New test.

208a044a54 command: properly diagnose process exit via signal
Child processes don't always reach _exit(); if they die from a
signal, then any messages should still be accurate.  Most users
either expect a 0 status (thankfully, if status==0, then
WIFEXITED(status) is true and WEXITSTATUS(status)==0 for all
known platforms) or were filtering on WIFEXITED before printing
a status, but a few were missing this check.  Additionally,
nwfilter_ebiptables_driver was making an assumption that works
on Linux (where WEXITSTATUS shifts and WTERMSIG just masks)
but fails on other platforms (where WEXITSTATUS just masks and
WTERMSIG shifts).

* src/util/command.h (virCommandTranslateStatus): New helper.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (command.h): Export it.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandTranslateStatus): New function.
(virCommandWait): Use it to also diagnose status from signals.
* src/security/security_apparmor.c (load_profile): Likewise.
* src/storage/storage_backend.c
(virStorageBackendQEMUImgBackingFormat): Likewise.
* src/util/util.c (virExecDaemonize, virRunWithHook)
(virFileOperation, virDirCreate): Likewise.
* daemon/remote.c (remoteDispatchAuthPolkit): Likewise.
* src/nwfilter/nwfilter_ebiptables_driver.c (ebiptablesExecCLI):
Likewise.

* src/util/command.h (virCommandAddArgBuffer)
(virCommandAddEnvBuffer): New prototypes.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandAddArgBuffer)
(virCommandAddEnvBuffer): Implement them.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (command.h): Export them.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c (qemudBuildCommandLine): Use them, plugging
a memory leak on rbd_hosts in the process.

f16ad06fb2 Introduce new APIs for spawning processes
This introduces a new set of APIs in src/util/command.h
to use for invoking commands. This is intended to replace
all current usage of virRun and virExec variants, with a
more flexible and less error prone API.

* src/util/command.c: New file.
* src/util/command.h: New header.
* src/Makefile.am (UTIL_SOURCES): Build it.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export symbols internally.
* tests/commandtest.c: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (check_PROGRAMS): Run it.
* tests/commandhelper.c: Auxiliary program.
* tests/commanddata/test2.log - test15.log: New expected outputs.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add virCommandFree.
(msg_gen_function): Add virCommandError.
* po/POTFILES.in: New translation.
* .x-sc_avoid_write: Add exemption.
* tests/.gitignore: Ignore new built file.
