Most of the usage of getuid()/getgid() is in cases where we are
considering what privileges we have. As such the code should be
using the effective IDs, not real IDs.

We don't know enough about quality of external libraries used
for non-UNIX transports, nor do we want to spawn external
commands when setuid. Restrict to the bare minimum which is
UNIX transport for local usage. Users shouldn't need to be
running setuid if connecting to remote hypervisors in any
case.

Unconditional use of getenv is not secure in setuid env.
While not all libvirt code runs in a setuid env (since
much of it only exists inside libvirtd) this is not always
clear to developers. So make all the code paranoid, even
if it only ever runs inside libvirtd.

The libvirt.so library has far too many library deps to allow
linking against it from setuid programs. Those libraries can
do stuff in __attribute__((constructor) functions which is
not setuid safe.
The virt-login-shell needs to link directly against individual
files that it uses, with all library deps turned off except
for libxml2 and libselinux.
Create a libvirt-setuid-rpc-client.la library which is linked
to by virt-login-shell. A config-post.h file allows this library
to disable all external deps except libselinux and libxml2.

The virConnectDomainXMLToNative API should require 'connect:write'
not 'connect:read', since it will trigger execution of the QEMU
binaries listed in the XML.
Also make virConnectDomainXMLFromNative API require a full
read-write connection and 'connect:write' permission. Although the
current impl doesn't trigger execution of QEMU, we should not
rely on that impl detail from an API permissioning POV.

virDomainSetMetadata when operating on the metadata element was
requesting the @key argument to be passed even if @metadata was NULL
used to delete the corresponding metadata element. This is not needed as
the key is only used when adding the element and matching is done via
the XML namespace.
An off-list bug report mentioned some confusion where the public

Newer gnutls uses nettle, rather than gcrypt, which is a lot nicer
regarding initialization. Yet we were unconditionally initializing
gcrypt even when gnutls wouldn't be using it, and having two crypto
libraries linked into libvirt.so is pointless, but mostly harmless
(it doesn't crash, but does interfere with certification efforts).
There are three distinct version ranges to worry about when
determining which crypto lib gnutls uses, per these gnutls mails:
2.12: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2011-03/msg00034.html
3.0: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2011-07/msg00035.html
If pkg-config can prove version numbers and/or list the crypto
library used for static linking, we have our proof; if not, it
is safer (even if pointless) to continue to use gcrypt ourselves.

(virGlobalInit): Honor the witness.

With container based virt, it is useful to be able to pass
pre-opened file descriptors to the container init process.
This allows for containers to be auto-activated from incoming
socket connections, passing the active socket into the container.
To do this, introduce a pair of new APIs, virDomainCreateXMLWithFiles
and virDomainCreateWithFiles, which accept an array of file
descriptors. For the LXC driver, UNIX file descriptor passing
will be used to send them to libvirtd, which will them pass
them down to libvirt_lxc, which will then pass them to the container
init process.
This will only be implemented for LXC right now, but the design
is generic enough it could work with other hypervisors, hence
I suggest adding this to libvirt.so, rather than libvirt-lxc.so

If a domain is paused before migration starts, we need to tell that to
the destination libvirtd to prevent it from resuming the domain at the
end of migration. This regression was introduced by commit 5379bb0.
This patch introduces two new APIs virDomainMigrate3 and
virDomainMigrateToURI3 that may be used in place of their older
variants. These new APIs take optional migration parameters (such as
bandwidth, domain XML, ...) in an array of virTypedParameters, which
makes adding new parameters easier as there's no need to introduce new
APIs whenever a new migration parameter needs to be added. Both APIs are
backward compatible and will automatically use older migration calls in
case the new calls are not supported as long as the typed parameters
array does not contain any parameter which was not supported by the
older calls.
The access control checks in the 'connectOpen' driver method
will require 'conn->driver' to be non-NULL. Set this before
running the 'connectOpen' method and NULL-ify it again on
failure.

This flag is meant for errors happening on the source of the migration
and isn't used on the destination. To allow better migration
compatibility, don't propagate it to the destination.
This patch fixes changes done in commit 29c1e913e459058c12d02b3f4b767b3
that was pushed without implementing review feedback.
The flag introduced by the patch is changed to VIR_DOMAIN_VCPU_GUEST and
documentation makes the difference between regular hotplug and this new
functionality more explicit.
The virsh options that enable the use of the new flag are changed to
"--guest" and the documentation is fixed too.
This flag will allow to use qemu guest agent commands to disable
(offline) and enable (online) processors in a live guest that has the
guest agent running.
Change the build process & driver initialization so that the
VirtualBox driver is built into libvirtd, instead of libvirt.so
This change avoids the VirtualBox GPLv2-only license causing
compatibility problems with libvirt.so which is under the
GPLv2-or-later license.
NB this change prevents use of the VirtualBox driver on the
Windows platform, until such time as libvirtd can be made
to work there.

These all existed before virfile.c was created, and for some reason
weren't moved.
This is mostly straightfoward, although the syntax rule prohibiting
write() had to be changed to have an exception for virfile.c instead
of virutil.c.
This movement pointed out that there is a function called
virBuildPath(), and another almost identical function called
virFileBuildPath(). They really should be a single function, which
I'll take care of as soon as I figure out what the arglist should look
like.
We have seen an issue on s390x platform where domain XMLs larger than 1MB
were used. The define command was finished successfully. The dumpxml command
was not successful (i.e. could not encode message payload).
Enlarged message related sizes (e.g. maximum string size, message size, etc.)
to handle larger system configurations used on s390x platform.
To improve handling of the RPC message size the allocation during encode process
is changed to a dynamic one (i.e. starting with 64kB initial size and increasing
that size in steps up to 16MB if the payload data is larger).

Commit 7c9a2d88 cleaned up too many headers; FreeBSD builds
failed due to:
util/virutil.c:556: warning: implicit declaration of function 'canonicalize_file_name'
(Not sure which Linux header leaked this declaration, but gnulib
only guarantees it in stdlib.h)
libvirt.c:956: warning: implicit declaration of function 'virGetUserConfigDirectory'
(Here, a build on Linux was picking up virutil.h indirectly via
one of the conditional driver headers, where that driver was not
being built on my FreeBSD setup)
* src/util/virutil.c (includes): Need <stdlib.h> for
canonicalize_file_name.

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
The existing virNodeDeviceDettach() assumes that there is only a
single PCI device assignment backend driver appropriate for any
hypervisor. This is no longer true, as the qemu driver is getting
support for PCI device assignment via VFIO. The new API
virNodeDeviceDetachFlags adds a driverName arg that should be set to
the exact same string set in a domain <hostdev>'s <driver name='x'/>
element (i.e. "vfio", "kvm", or NULL for default). It also adds a
flags arg for good measure (and because it's possible we may need it
when we start dealing with VFIO's "device groups").
It will simplify later work if the sub-drivers have dedicated
APIs / field names. ie virNetworkDriver should have
virDrvNetworkOpen and virDrvNetworkClose methods
