851117bd7a Enable all warnings permanently & default to -Werror for GIT builds
Given that we auto-detect whether each -Wxxxx flag is supported by
GCC, and we are warning-free and use automake silent rules, there
is no compelling reason to allow compile warnings to be disabled.

Replace the --enable-compile-warnings flag with a simpler
--enable-werror flag, which defaults to 'yes' if building
from GIT, or 'no' if building from tar.gz

This helps ensure that everyone writing patches for libvirt will
take care to fix their warning problems before submitting for
review

* autobuild.sh: Force -Werror
* configure.ac: Update for LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS macro change
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4: Permanently enable all warnings,
  auto-enable Werror for GIT builds

3a2fc2770b Enable build of test suite programs by default for GIT checkouts
Add a new flag '--with-test-suite' to configure to control whether
the test suite binaries are built by default. ie built with a
plain 'make', as opposed to delayed until 'make check'

For builds from tar.gz tests will not be built by default. For
builds from GIT, tests with be on by default, to try and ensure
that patch developers don't accidentally break the test suites
without noticing.

* configure.ac: Add --with-test-suite
* tests/Makefile.am: Use noinst_PROGRAMS instead of check_PROGRAMS
  if building tests by default. Consolidate setting of TESTS and
  {noinst,check}_PROGRAMS to avoid duplication

beb76e3742 spec: Add missed dependancy for numad
numad is available since Fedora 17 and RHEL6.X. And it's not supported
on s390[x] and ARM.

0f8e7ae33a qemu: Support numad
numad is an user-level daemon that monitors NUMA topology and
processes resource consumption to facilitate good NUMA resource
alignment of applications/virtual machines to improve performance
and minimize cost of remote memory latencies. It provides a
pre-placement advisory interface, so significant processes can
be pre-bound to nodes with sufficient available resources.

More details: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/numad

"numad -w ncpus:memory_amount" is the advisory interface numad
provides currently.

This patch add the support by introducing a new XML attribute
for <vcpu>. e.g.

  <vcpu placement="auto">4</vcpu>
  <vcpu placement="static" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>

The returned advisory nodeset from numad will be printed
in domain's dumped XML. e.g.
  <vcpu placement="auto" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>

If placement is "auto", the number of vcpus and the current
memory amount specified in domain XML will be used for numad
command line (numad uses MB for memory amount):
  numad -w $num_of_vcpus:$current_memory_amount / 1024

The advisory nodeset returned from numad will be used to set
domain process CPU affinity then. (e.g. qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity).

If the user specifies both CPU affinity policy (e.g.
(<vcpu cpuset="1-10,^7,^8">4</vcpu>) and placement == "auto"
the specified CPU affinity will be overridden.

Only QEMU/KVM drivers support it now.

See docs update in patch for more details.

3f4238d771 util: Add helpers for safe domain console operations
This patch adds a set of functions used in creating console streams for
domains using PTYs and ensures mutually exclusive access to the PTYs.

If mutually exclusive access is not used, two clients may open the same
console, which results in corruption on both clients as both of them
race to read data from the PTY.

Two approaches are used to ensure this:
1) Internal data structure holding open PTYs.
        This is used internally and enables the user to forcibly
        terminate another console connection eg. when somebody leaves
        the console open on another host.

2) UUCP style lock files:
        This uses UUCP lock files according to the  FHS
        ( http://www.pathname.com/fhs/pub/fhs-2.3.html#VARLOCKLOCKFILES )
        to check if other programs (like minicom) are not using the pty
        device of the console.

        This feature is disabled by default and may be enabled using
        configure parameter
        --with-console-lock-files=/path/to/lock/file/directory
        or --with-console-lock-files=auto (which tries to infer the
        location from OS used (currently only linux).

        On usual linux systems, normal users may not write to the
        /var/lock directory containing the locks. This poses problems
        while in session mode. If the current user has no access to the
        lockfile directory, check for presence of the file is still
        done, but no lock file is created. This does NOT result in an
        error.

1d4c4d9d4f Workaround python header file insanity
The /usr/include/python/pyconfig.h file pollutes the global
namespace with a huge number of HAVE_XXX and WITH_XXX
defines. These change what we detected in our own config.h
In particular if you try to build without DTrace, python's
headers turn it back on with predictable fail.

THe hack to workaround this is to rename WITH_DTRACE to
WITH_DTRACE_PROBES to avoid the namespace clash

2b38e59bd8 configure: Define program name if not found
AC_CHECK_PROG checks for program in given path. However, if it doesn't
exists, [variable] is set to [value-if-not-found]. We don't want this
to be the empty string in case of 'modprobe' and 'scrub' as we want to
fallback to runtime detection.

df81004632 network: support Open vSwitch
This patch allows libvirt to add interfaces to already
existing Open vSwitch bridges. The following syntax in
domain XML file can be used:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
      <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
      <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
        <parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'/>
      </virtualport>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
                          slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

or if libvirt should auto-generate the interfaceid use
following syntax:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
      <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
      <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
      </virtualport>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
                          slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

It is also possible to pass an optional profileid. To do that
use following syntax:

   <interface type='bridge'>
     <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
     <mac address='00:55:1a:65:a2:8d'/>
     <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
       <parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'
                   profileid='test-profile'/>
     </virtualport>
   </interface>

To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:

    ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr

However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been

ba61012cfc Disable netcf if building without libvirtd
Although the netcf interface driver can in theory be used by
the stateless drivers, in practice none of them want to use
it because they have different ways of dealing with interfaces.

Furthermore, if you have mingw32-netcf installed, then the
libvirt mingw32 build will fail with

  ../../src/interface/netcf_driver.c:644:5: error: unknown field 'close_used_without_including_unistd_h' specified in initializer

307f363509 build: drop check for ANSI compiler
Using automake.git (will become 1.12 someday), I got this error:

configure.ac:90: error: automatic de-ANSI-fication support has been removed
/usr/local/share/aclocal-1.11a/protos.m4:13: AM_C_PROTOTYPES is expanded from...
configure.ac:90: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1

In short, pre-C89 compilers are no longer a viable portability
target.  Besides, our code base already requires C99, so worrying
about pre-C89 seems pointless.

* configure.ac (AM_C_PROTOTYPES): Drop, since newer automake no
longer provides it.

f9d60b1946 build: disable dtrace on non-Linux builds
Using dtrace (and systemtap in general) is Linux-specific.
Running ./autobuild.sh shows that attempting a cross-build to
target mingw was mistakenly trying to build dtrace code, merely
because it was present on the compilation host.

doing a cross-build hosted on Linux but targetting elsewhere.

3ec1289896 Add internal APIs for dealing with time
The logging APIs need to be able to generate formatted timestamps
using only async signal safe functions. This rules out using
gmtime/localtime/malloc/gettimeday(!) and much more.

Introduce a new internal API which is async signal safe.

  virTimeMillisNowRaw replacement for gettimeofday. Uses clock_gettime
                      where available, otherwise falls back to the unsafe
                      gettimeofday

  virTimeFieldsNowRaw  replacements for gmtime(), convert a timestamp
  virTimeFieldsThenRaw into a broken out set of fields. No localtime()
                       replacement is provided, because converting to
                       local time is not practical with only async signal
                       safe APIs.

  virTimeStringNowRaw  replacements for strftime() which print a timestamp
  virTimeStringThenRaw into a string, using a pre-determined format, with
                       a fixed size buffer (VIR_TIME_STRING_BUFLEN)

For each of these there is also a version without the Raw postfix
which raises a full libvirt error. These versions are not async
signal safe

* src/Makefile.am, src/util/virtime.c, src/util/virtime.h: New files
* src/libvirt_private.syms: New APis
* configure.ac: Check for clock_gettime in -lrt

3c5405149b storage: Fallback to use lvchange first if lvremove fails
virStorageBackendLogicalDeleteVol() could not remove the lv with error
"could not remove open logical volume" sometimes. Generally it's caused
by the volume is still active, even if lvremove tries to remove it with
option "--force".

This patch is to fix it by disbale the lv first using "lvchange -aln"
and "lvremove -f" afterwards if the direct "lvremove -f" failed.

4789fb2e4e Add support for systemd init service
This patch adds support for a systemd init service for libvirtd
and libvirt-guests. The libvirtd.service is *not* written to use
socket activation, since we want libvirtd to start on boot so it
can do guest auto-start.

The libvirt-guests.service is pretty lame, just exec'ing the
original init script for now. Ideally we would factor out the
functionality, into some shared tool.

Instead of

  ./configure --with-init-script=redhat

You can now do

  ./configure --with-init-script=systemd

Or better still:

  ./configure --with-init-script=systemd+redhat

We can also now support install of the upstart init script

* configure.ac: Add systemd, and systemd+redhat options to
  --with-init-script option
* daemon/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* daemon/libvirtd.sysconf: Add note about unused env variable
  with systemd
* daemon/libvirtd.service.in: libvirtd systemd service unit
* libvirt.spec.in: Add scripts to installing systemd services
  and migrating from legacy init scripts
* tools/Makefile.am: Install systemd services
* tools/libvirt-guests.init.sh: Rename to tools/libvirt-guests.init.in

9d86cbcf5f build: fix linking on BSD
While building on FreeBSD (and after fixing a ptsname_r link error),

It turns out that gnulib used only pthread_join for LIB_PTHREAD,
but on FreeBSD, libc provides that (as a stub function); whereas
the more complex pthread_create really does require -pthread,
which gnulib tracked under [LT]LIBMULTITHREAD.

19ff0ddfbb Update to require sanlock 1.8 for license compliance
Inexplicably the sanlock code all got placed under the GPLv2-only,
so libvirt's use of sanlock introduces a license incompatibility.
The sanlock developers have now rearranged the code such that there
is a 'sanlock_client.so' which is LGPLv2+ while their daemon remains
GPLv2-only. To use the new client library we need to call the new
sanlock_init and sanlock_align APIs instead of sanlock_direct_init
and sanlock_direct_align. These APIs calls are now routed via the
sanlock daemon, instead of doing direct I/O calls to disk.

For all this we require sanlock >= 1.8

* configure.ac: Check for sanlock_client.so instead of sanlock.so
  and fix various comments
* libvirt.spec.in: Mandate sanlock >= 1.8
* src/Makefile.am: Link to -lsanlock_client

1726a736fb build: work around lack of MacOS fdatasync
Mingw lacks fsync, but gnulib provides that.  Meanwhile, gnulib does
not (yet) provide fdatasync, so this is a quick hack to fake that
function on MacOS X; we can revert this configure change once gnulib
gives us a real module.

We have been implicitly relying on gnulib's largefile module being
pulled in by other modules, but it's better to make that explicit.

* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fsync.  Make largefile use
explicit.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Check for fdatasync, and
fake it with fsync when not present.

8e44e5593e Prevent crash from dlclose() of libvirt.so
When libvirt calls virInitialize it creates a thread local
for the virErrorPtr storage, and registers a callback to
cleanup memory when a thread exits. When libvirt is dlclose()d
or otherwise made non-resident, the callback function is
removed from memory, but the thread local may still exist
and if a thread later exists, it will invoke the callback
and SEGV. There may also be other thread locals with callbacks
pointing to libvirt code, so it is in general never safe to
unload libvirt.so from memory once initialized.

To allow dlclose() to succeed, but keep libvirt.so resident
in memory, link with '-z nodelete'. This issue was first
found with the libvirt CIM provider, but can potentially
hit many of the dynamic language bindings which all ultimately
involve dlopen() in some way, either on libvirt.so itself,
or on the glue code for the binding which in turns links
to libvirt

* configure.ac, src/Makefile.am: Ensure libvirt.so is linked
  with -z nodelete
* cfg.mk, .gitignore, tests/Makefile.am, tests/shunloadhelper.c,
  tests/shunloadtest.c: A test case to unload libvirt while
  a thread is still running.

e4047f0a10 build: allow caching the input to STATIC_ANALYSIS
Right now, every re-run of configure re-evaluates whether a
static analysis tool is in use.  But if you run configure under
coverity, make a tweak, and then do an incremental rebuild with
gcc but not coverity to test the tweak, then rerun a build under
coverity, then configure does not get rerun, and static analysis
ends up with lots of false positives.

This patch caches the static analysis result, and also makes it
easier to force static analysis even if the existing checks are
insufficient to detect newer versions of the static analyzer tools.

* configure.ac (lv_cv_static_analysis): New cache variable.

b590866bdb freebsd: Fix build problem due to picking up the wrong libvirt.h
Gettext annoyingly modifies CPPFLAGS in-place, putting
-I/usr/local/include into the search patch if libintl headers
must be used from that location.  But since we must support
automake 1.9.6 which lacks AM_CPPFLAGS, and since CPPFLAGS is used
prior to INCLUDES, this means that the build picks up the _old_
installed libvirt.h in priority to the in-tree version, leading
to all sorts of weird build failures on FreeBSD.

Fix this by teaching configure to undo gettext's actions, but
to keep any changes required by gettext at the end of INCLUDES
after all in-tree locations are used first.  Also requires
adding a wrapper Makefile.am and making gnulib-tool create
just gnulib.mk files during the bootstrap process.

5283ea9b1d tests: fix compilation failures
Even though gnutls is a hard-req for libvirt, and gnutls depends
on libtasn1, that does not mean that you have to have the libtasn1
development files installed.  Skip the test rather than failing
compilation in that case.

With newer gcc, the test consumed too much stack space.  Move
things to static storage to fix that.

* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_HEADERS): Check for libtasn1.h.
(HAVE_LIBTASN1): New automake conditional.

12291656b1 save: let iohelper work on O_DIRECT fds
Required for a coming patch where iohelper will operate on O_DIRECT
fds.  There, the user-space memory must be aligned to file system
boundaries (at least 512, but using page-aligned works better, and
some file systems prefer 64k).  Made tougher by the fact that
VIR_ALLOC won't work on void *, but posix_memalign won't work on
char * and isn't available everywhere.

This patch makes some simplifying assumptions - namely, output
to an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on an empty seekable
file (hence, no need to worry about preserving existing data
on a partial block, and ftruncate will work to undo the effects
of having to round up the size of the last block written), and
input from an O_DIRECT fd will only be attempted on a complete
seekable file with the only possible short read at EOF.

* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Check for posix_memalign.
* src/util/iohelper.c (runIO): Use aligned memory, and handle
quirks of O_DIRECT on last write.

df0b57a95a Convert libvirtd over to the new RPC handling APIs
This guts the libvirtd daemon, removing all its networking and
RPC handling code. Instead it calls out to the new virServerPtr
APIs for all its RPC & networking work

to call separate error reporting APIs in RPC code, nor should
code use VIR_WARN/VIR_ERROR for reporting fatal problems anymore.

bfbeafbd5d Fix dlopen dependency
Since the addition of the lock manager framework in 6a943419c5
dlopen is always required, but the checks in configure wasn't changed
to reflect that. This didn't show up directly because the VirtualBox
driver linking dlopen in covered it. But disabling the VirtualBox
driver makes the build fail due to missing dlopen.

Change the dlopen check in configure to pick up dlopen when available.

ebfb8c4243 Add call to sanlock_restrict() in QEMU lock driver
In between fork and exec, a connection to sanlock is acquired
and the socket file descriptor is intionally leaked to the
child process. sanlock watches this FD for POLL_HANGUP to
detect when QEMU has exited. We don't want a rogus/compromised
QEMU from issuing sanlock RPC calls on the leaked FD though,
since that could be used to DOS other guests. By calling
sanlock_restrict() on the socket before exec() we can lock
it down.

32abd5ee26 remote generator: Legacy support for hyper to long mappings
Remove some special case code that took care of mapping hyper to the
correct C types.

As the list of procedures that is allowed to map hyper to long is fixed
put it in the generator instead annotations in the .x files. This
results in simpler .x file parsing code.

Use macros for hyper to long assignments that perform overflow checks
when long is smaller than hyper. Map hyper to long long by default.

29d753c8d5 fix xdr detection and use with recent glibc
glibc 2.13.90 has obsoleted its rpc implementation in favour of
the one provided by the TI-RPC library:

> * The RPC implementation in libc is obsoleted.  Old programs keep working
>   but new programs cannot be linked with the routines in libc anymore.
>   Programs in need of RPC functionality must be linked against TI-RPC.
>   The TI-RPC implemtation is IPv6 enabled and there are other benefits.
>
>   Visible changes of this change include (obviously) the inability to
>   link
>   programs using RPC functions without referencing the TI-RPC library,
>   the
>   removal of the RPC headers from the glibc headers, and the lack of
>   symbols defined in <rpc/netdb.h> when <netdb.h> is installed.
>   Implemented by Ulrich Drepper.
(from glibc NEWS)

Thus with recent glibc, we need to try linking with -ltirpc when looking
for the XDR functions. The daemon also needs to use XDR_CFLAGS to be able
to find the XDR headers stored in /usr/include/tirpc.

When using TI-RPC, there are some warnings about redundant declarations, but
the fix probably belongs in other modules:

/usr/include/tirpc/rpc/rpcent.h:68:13: warning: redundant redeclaration of
'setrpcent' [-Wredundant-decls]
/usr/include/rpc/netdb.h:53:13: note: previous declaration of 'setrpcent'

4591df766d Remove the Open Nebula driver
The Open Nebula driver has been unmaintained since it was first
introduced. The only commits have been for tree-wide cleanups.
It also has a major design flaw, in that it only knows about guests
that it has created itself, which makes it of very limited use.

Discussions wrt evolution of the VMWare ESX driver, concluded that
it should limit itself to single-node ESX operation and not try to
manage the multi-node architecture of VirtualCenter. Open Nebula
is a cluster like Virtual Center, not a single node system, so
the same reasoning applies.

The DeltaCloud project includes an Open Nebula driver and is a much
better fit architecturally, since it is explicitly targetting the
distributed multihost cluster scenario.

Thus this patch deletes the libvirt Open Nebula driver with the
recommendation that people use DeltaCloud for managing it instead.

2b84e445d5 Add libxenlight driver
Add a new xen driver based on libxenlight [1], which is the primary
toolstack starting with Xen 4.1.0.  The driver is stateful and runs
privileged only.

Like the existing xen-unified driver, the libxenlight driver is
accessed with xen:// URI.  Driver selection is based on the status
of xend.  If xend is running, the libxenlight driver will not load
and xen:// connections are handled by xen-unified.  If xend is not
running *and* the libxenlight driver is available, xen://
connections are deferred to the libxenlight driver.

V6:
 - Address several code style issues noted by Daniel Veillard
 - Make drive work with xen:/// URI
 - Hold domain object reference while domain is injected in
   libvirt event loop.  Race found and fixed by Markus Groß.

V5:
 - Ensure events are unregistered when domain private data
   is destroyed.  Discovered and fixed by Markus Groß.

V4:
 - Handle restart of libvirtd, reconnecting to previously
   started domains
 - Rebased to current master
 - Tested against Xen 4.1 RC7-pre (c/s 22961:c5d121fd35c0)

V3:
  - Reserve vnc port within driver when autoport=yes

V2:
  - Update to Xen 4.1 RC6-pre (c/s 22940:5a4710640f81)
  - Rebased to current master
  - Plug memory leaks found by Stefano Stabellini and valgrind
  - Handle SHUTDOWN_crash domain death event

251ad3b28b Avoid empty strings when --with-packager(-version) is not specified
Make with_packager and with_packager_version default to "no". This way
--without-packager-version (as shorthand for --with-packager(-version)=no)
works correctly too.

Prior to this patch libvirt outputs a line like this when
--with-packager(-version) was not specified

# ./daemon/libvirtd
14:11:15.018: 31796: info : libvirt version: 0.8.8, package:  ()

Now the unspecified parts are correctly omitted.

cee61fc298 Imprint all logs with version + package build information
The logging functions are enhanced so that immediately prior to
the first log message being printed to any output channel, the
libvirt package version will be printed.

eg

 $ LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh
 18:13:28.013: 17536: info : libvirt version: 0.8.7
 18:13:28.013: 17536: debug : virInitialize:361 : register drivers
 ...

The 'configure' script gains two new arguments which can be
used as

   --with-packager="Fedora Project, x86-01.phx2.fedoraproject.org, 01-27-2011-18:00:10"
   --with-packager-version="1.fc14"

to allow distros to append a custom string with package specific
data.

The RPM specfile is modified so that it appends the RPM version,
the build host, the build date and the packager name.

eg

 $ LIBVIRT_DEBUG=1 virsh
 18:14:52.086: 17551: info : libvirt version: 0.8.7, package: 1.fc13 (Fedora Project, x86-01.phx2.fedoraproject.org, 01-27-2011-18:00:10)
 18:14:52.086: 17551: debug : virInitialize:361 : register drivers

Thus when distro packagers receive bug reports they can clearly
see what version was in use, even if the bug reporter mistakenly
or intentionally lies about version/builds

* src/util/logging.c: Output version data prior to first log message
* libvirt.spec.in: Include RPM release, date, hostname & packager
* configure.ac: Add --with-packager & --with-packager-version args

c5b11b3cc4 build: use more gnulib modules for simpler code
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for sigpipe and sigaction modules.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add siaction, sigpipe, strerror_r.
* tools/virsh.c (vshSetupSignals) [!SIGPIPE]: Delete, now that
gnulib guarantees it.
(SA_SIGINFO): Define for mingw fallback.
* src/util/virterror.c (virStrerror): Simplify, now that gnulib
guarantees the POSIX interface.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Drop redundant check.
(AM_PROG_CC_STDC): Move earlier, to keep autoconf happy.

d596c6dc9b new virSetUIDGID() utility function
virSetUIDGID() sets both the real and effective group and user of the
process, and additionally calls initgroups() to assure that the
process joins all the auxiliary groups that the given uid is a member
of.

8090a56890 Run radvd for virtual networks with IPv6 addresses
Running an instance of the router advertisement daemon (radvd) allows
guests using the virtual network to automatically acquire an IPv6
address and default route. Note that acquiring an address only works
for networks with a prefix length of exactly 64 - radvd is still run
in other circumstances, and still advertises routes, but autoconf will
not work because it requires exactly 64 bits of address info from the
network prefix.

This patch avoids a race condition with the pidfile by manually
daemonizing radvd rather than allowing it to daemonize itself, then
creating our own pidfile (in addition to radvd's own file, which is
unnecessary, but there is no way to tell radvd to not create it). This
is accomplished by exec'ing it with "--debug 1" in the commandline,
and using virCommand's features to fork, create a pidfile, and detach
from the newly forked process.

537e65e7b7 Update iptables.c to also support ip6tables.
All of the iptables functions eventually call down to a single
bottom-level function, and fortunately, ip6tables syntax (for all the
args that we use) is identical to iptables format (except the
addresses), so all we need to do is:

1) Get an address family down to the lowest level function in each
   case, either implied through an address, or explicitly when no
   address is in the parameter list, and

2) At the lowest level, just decide whether to call "iptables" or
   "ip6tables" based on the family.

The location of the ip6tables binary is determined at build time by
autoconf. If a particular target system happens to not have ip6tables
installed, any attempts to run it will generate an error, but that
won't happen unless someone tries to define an IPv6 address for a
network. This is identical behavior to IPv4 addresses and iptables.

20718b8bcb Replace brSetInetAddress/brSetInetNetmask with brAddInetAddress
brSetInetAddress can only set a single IP address on the bridge, and
uses a method (ioctl(SIOCSETIFADDR)) that only works for IPv4. Replace
it and brSetInetNetmask with a single function that uses the external
"ip addr add" command to add an address/prefix to the interface - this
supports IPv6, and allows adding multiple addresses to the interface.

Although it isn't currently used in the code, we also add a
brDelInetAddress for completeness' sake.

Also, while we're modifying bridge.c, we change brSetForwardDelay and
brSetEnableSTP to use the new virCommand API rather than the
deprecated virRun, and also log an error message in bridge_driver.c if
either of those fail (previously the failure would be completely
silent).

42b2f35d36 esx: Move VMX handling code out of the driver directory
Now the VMware driver doesn't depend on the ESX driver anymore.

Add a WITH_VMX option that depends on WITH_ESX and WITH_VMWARE.
Also add a libvirt_vmx.syms file.

Move some escaping functions from esx_util.c to vmx.c.

Adapt the test suite, ESX and VMware driver to the new code layout.
