Changes in the API:
- APIs related to the graphics adapter are no longer on the
IMachine interface, but on a IGraphicsAdapter interface
- The LaunchVMProcess method takes a list of env variables
instead of a single variable containing a concatenated
list. Since we only ever pass a single env variable, we
can simply stuff it straight into a list.
- The DHCP server start method no longer needs the network
name

Long ago we switched the vbox driver to run inside libvirtd to avoid
libvirt.so being polluted with GPLv2-only code. Since libvirtd is not
built on Windows, we disabled vbox on Windows builds. Thus the MSCOM
glue code is not required.

Support for all the 4.x releases was ended by VirtualBox maintainers in
Dec 2015. Even the "newest" 4.3.40 of those is only supported on old
versions of Linux (Ubuntu <= 13.03, RHEL <= 6, SLES <= 11), which are all
discontinued hosts from libvirt's POV.
We can thus reasonably drop all 4.x support from the libvirt VirtualBox
driver.

Require that all headers are guarded by a symbol named
LIBVIRT_$FILENAME
where $FILENAME is the uppercased filename, with all characters
outside a-z changed into '_'.
Note we do not use a leading __ because that is technically a
namespace reserved for the toolchain.

Simply add the 5.2 SDK header to the existing unified framework. No
other special handling is needed as there's no API break between
existing 5.1 and the just added 5.2.
This patch exposes additional methods of the native VBOX API to the
libvirt 'unified' vbox API to deal with IStorageController. The exposed
methods are:
* IStorageController->GetStorageControllerType()
* IStorageController->SetStorageControllerType()
* IMachine->GetStorageControllers()
VirutalBox has a IVRDEServerInfo structure available that
gives the effective runtime port that the VM is using when it's
running. This is useful when the "TCP/Ports" VBox property was set to
port range (e.g. via autoport = "yes" or via VBoxManage) in which
case it would be impossible to get the "active" port otherwise.
* remove _vboxIID_v2_x and _vboxIID_v3_x structs and repalce with one
_vboxIID as all supprted vbox versions have the same IID structure.
* remove vboxIIDUnion that was used to abstract version depended IID
differences.
* remove IID_MEMBER macro and use the new vboxIID directly.
The IVRDxServer was used because vbox < 4 used to have IVRDPServer
whereas vbox >= 4 has IVRDEServer. Now that support for legacy
versions is being removed, we can use IVRDEServer.
* removed oldMediumInterface flag and related code that was used for
vbox 2.x
* remove accelerate2DVideo and networkRemoveInterface flags which were
also conditionals for handling legacy vbox versions.
* the getMachineForSession is always true for 4.0+. This also means that
checkflag argument in openSessionForMachine no longer has any meaning
because it was or'ed with getMachineForSession (always true)
* remove supportScreenshot flag - vbox 4.0+ supports it
* remove detachDevicesExplicitly flag only relevant for < 4.0
VirtualBox 4.0+ uses IMedium and IHardDisk is no longer used, so
* remove typef IMedium IHardDisk
* merge UIHardDisk into UIMedium
* update all references accordingly
* add vboxDriver object to serve as a singleton global object that
holds references to IVirtualBox and ISession to be shared among
multiple connections. The vbox_driver is instantiated only once in
the first call vboxGetDriverConnection function that is guarded by
a mutex.
* call vbox API initialize only when the first connection is
established, and likewise uninitialize when last connection
disconnects. The prevents each subsequent connection from overwriting
IVirtualBox/ISession instances of any other active connection that
led to libvirtd segfaults. The virConnectOpen and virConnectClose
implementations are guarded by mutex on the global vbox_driver_lock
where the global vbox_driver object counts connectios and decides
when it's safe to call vbox's init/uninit routines.
* add IVirutalBoxClient to vboxDriver and use it to in tandem with newer
pfnClientInitialize/pfnClientUninitalize APIs for vbox versions that
support it, to avoid usage of the old pfnComInitialize/Uninitialize.
The GetMedium will always return a IHardDisk object them.
In 2.2 and 3.0, it is what GetHardDisk exactly do. In 3.1 and later,
The IMedium is same as IHardDisk.
The CreateHardDiskMedium only support create HardDisk for medium
type, and it only works when vbox version >= 3.1. This patch make
the function workable with all vbox versions and rename it as
CreateHardDisk.
In vbox 2.2 and 3.0 this function will create a IHardDisk object.
In vbox later than 3.0, this function will create a IMedium object.
In old version, function FindMedium in UIVirtualBox doesn't work
for vbox2.2 and 3.0. We assume it will not be used when vbox in
these versions.
But when rewriting vboxStorageVolLookupByPath, we found it was
compatibe to use FindMedium to get a IHardDisk object, even in
vbox old versions. To achieve this, first make FindMedium call
FindHardDisk when VBOX_API_VERSION < 4000000.
Then change the argument type **IMedium to **IHardDisk. (As the
rules in heriachy, we can't transfer a IHardDisk to match
IMedium in output)
In vbox 2.2 and 3.0, the caller must be aware that they will get
a IHardDisk object in return.
We use typedef IMedium IHardDisk to make IHardDisk hierachy from
IMedium (Actually it did on vbox 2.2 and 3.0's C++ API).
So when calling
VBOX_MEDIUM_FUNC_ARG*(IHardDisk, func, args)
we can directly replace it to
gVBoxAPI.UIMedium.func(IHardDisk, args)
When dealing with this two types, we get some rules from it's
hierachy relationship.
When using IHardDisk and IMedium as input, we can't transfer a
IMedium to IHardDisk. Like:
gVBoxAPI.UIHardDisk.func(IHardDisk *hardDisk, args)
Here, we can't put a *IMedium as a argument.
When using IHardDisk and IMedium as output, we can't transfer a
IHardDisk to IMedium. Like:
gVBoxAPI.UIMachine.GetMedium(IMedium **out)
Here, we can't put a **IHardDisk as a argument. If this case
do happen, we either change the API to GetHardDisk or write a
new one.
This patch rewrites the following functions
*vboxStorageOpen
*vboxStorageClose
*vboxConnectNumOfStoragePools
*vboxConnectListStoragePools
*vboxStoragePoolLookupByName
These functions do not call any vbox API, so I directly move it
from vbox_tmpl.c to vbox_storage.c
A small improvement is made on vboxConnectListStoragePools.
The if condition nnames == 1 is modified to nnames > 0. So if the
caller put more than one slot to get active storage pools, the new
function will return exactly one, while the old one would only
return 0.
I made a mistake on copyright in patch 7f0f415b87.
If I copied codes from one file to another, I should copy the
copyright announcement as well. So this patch makes up the
copyright which I should have added in the previous patch.
To prepare for introducing a single global driver, rename the
virDriver struct to virHypervisorDriver and the registration
API to virRegisterHypervisorDriver()
This patch seperate the domain driver and the network driver.
libvirt_driver_vbox_impl.la has been linked in the network driver.
So that the version specified codes in vbox_V*.c would only be
compiled once.
The vboxGetNetworkDriver provides a simple interface to get vbox
network driver.
This patch rewrites two public APIs. They are vboxNetworkUndefine
and vboxNetworkDestroy. They use the same core function
vboxNetworkUndefineDestroy. I merged it in one patch.
This patch actually contains two public API, virNetworkDefineXML
and virNetworkCreateXML. They use the same core function
vboxNetworkDefineCreateXML. So I merged it together.
