An EOF on a domain's monitor socket results in an event being queued
to handle the EOF. The handler calls qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF. If
it is a transient domain, this leads to a call to
virDomainRemoveInactive, which removes the domain from the driver's
hashtable and unref's it. Nowhere in this code is the qemu driver lock
acquired.
However, all modifications to the driver's domain hashtable *must* be
done while holding the driver lock, otherwise the hashtable can become
corrupt, and (even more likely) another thread could call a different
hashtable function and acquire a pointer to the domain that is in the
process of being destroyed.
To prevent such a disaster, qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF must get the
qemu driver lock *before* it gets the DomainObj's lock, and hold it
until it is finished with the DomainObj. This guarantees that nobody
else modifies the hashtable at the same time, and that anyone who had
already gotten the DomainObj from the hashtable prior to this call has
finished with it before we remove/destroy it.
This was found while researching the root cause of:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=670848
virDomainUnref should only be called with the lock held for the
virDomainObj in question. However, when a transient qemu domain gets
EOF on its monitor socket, it queues an event which frees the monitor,
which unref's the virDomainObj without first locking it. If another
thread has already locked the virDomainObj, the modification of the
refcount could potentially be corrupted. In an extreme case, it could
also be potentially unlocked by virDomainObjFree, thus left open to
modification by anyone else who would have otherwise waited for the
lock (not to mention the fact that they would be accessing freed
data!).
The solution is to have qemuMonitorFree lock the domain object right
before unrefing it. Since the caller to qemuMonitorFree doesn't expect
this lock to be held, if the refcount doesn't go all the way to 0,
qemuMonitorFree must unlock it after the unref.
In virFileOperation, the parent does a fallback to a non-fork
attempt if it detects that the child returned EACCES. However,
the child was calling _exit(-EACCES), which does _not_ appear
as EACCES in the parent.
* src/util/util.c (virFileOperation): Correctly pass EACCES from
child to parent.
virSecurityDAC{Set,Restore}ChardevCallback expect virSecurityManagerPtr,
but are passed virDomainObjPtr instead. This makes
virSecurityDACSetChardevLabel set a wrong uid/gid on chardevs. This
patch fixes this behaviour.

This fixes a possible crash of libvirtd during its startup. When qemu
driver reconnects to running domains, it iterates over all domain
objects in a hash. When reconnecting to an associated qemu monitor
fails and the domain is transient, it's immediately removed from the
hash. Despite the fact that it's explicitly forbidden to do so. If
libvirtd is lucky enough, virHashForEach will access random memory when
the callback finishes and the deamon will crash.
Since it's trivial to fix virHashForEach to allow removal of hash
entries while iterating through them, I went this way instead of fixing
qemuReconnectDomain callback (and possibly others) to avoid deleting the
entries.
qemudDomainSaveImageStartVM was evil - it closed the incoming fd
argument on some, but not all, code paths, without informing the
caller about that action. No wonder that this resulted in
double-closes: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=672725
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSaveImageStartVM): Alter
signature, to avoid double-close.
(qemudDomainRestore, qemudDomainObjRestore): Update callers.
When a SPICE or VNC graphics controller is present, and sound is
piggybacked over a channel to the graphics device rather than
directly accessing host hardware, then there is no need to grant
host hardware access to that qemu process.
* src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c (qemuSetupCgroup): Prevent sound with
spice, and with vnc when vnc_allow_host_audio is 0.

The kill() function doesn't exist on Win32, so it needs to be

this is the patch to add support for multiple serial ports to the
libvirt Xen driver. It support both old style (serial = "pty") and
new style (serial = [ "/dev/ttyS0", "/dev/ttyS1" ]) definition and
tests for xml2sexpr, sexpr2xml and xmconfig have been added as well.
Written and tested on RHEL-5 Xen dom0 and working as designed but
the Xen version have to have patch for RHBZ #614004 but this patch
is for upstream version of libvirt.
Also, this patch is addressing issue described in RHBZ #670789.

this is the patch to fix the virDomainChrDefParseTargetXML() functionality
to parse the target port from XML if available. This is necessary for
multiple serial port support which is the second part of this patch.

The virCgroupKillRecursively method does this recursively

Relax the restriction that the hash table key must be a string
by allowing an arbitrary hash code generator + comparison func
to be provided
* util/hash.c, util/hash.h: Allow any pointer as a key

Since the deallocator is passed into the constructor of
a hash table it is not desirable to pass it into each
function again. Remove it from all functions, but provide
a virHashSteal to allow a item to be removed from a hash
table without deleteing it.
* src/util/hash.c, src/util/hash.h: Remove deallocator
param from all functions. Add virHashSteal
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Add virHashSteal
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/nwfilter_params.c,

When executed from cron, commandtest would fail to correctly
identify daemon processes. Set session ID and process group

Using the 'personality(2)' system call, we can make a container
on an x86_64 host appear to be i686. Likewise for most other
Linux 64bit arches.
* src/lxc/lxc_conf.c: Fill in 32bit capabilities for x86_64 hosts
* src/lxc/lxc_container.h, src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Add API to
check if an arch has a 32bit alternative
* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c: Set the process personality when
starting guest
This is done for two reasons:
- we are getting very close to 64 flags which is the maximum we can use
with unsigned long long
- by using LL constants in enum we already violates C99 constraint that
enum values have to fit into int
When spawning 'init' in the container, set
LIBVIRT_LXC_UUID=XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
LIBVIRT_LXC_NAME=YYYYYYYYYYYY
to allow guest software to detect & identify that they
are in a container
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Set LIBVIRT_LXC_UUID and
LIBVIRT_LXC_NAME env vars
In a couple of commands virsh catches & ignores errors, but fails
to reset last_error. Thus the error is ignored, but still reported

The virFileAbsPath was not taking into account the '/' directory
separator when allocating memory for combining cwd + path. Convert

Normal practice for /dev/pts is to have it mode=620,gid=5

Current code does an IFF_UP on a 8021Qbh interface immediately after a port
profile set. This is ok in most cases except when its the migration prepare
stage. During migration we want to postpone IFF_UP'ing the interface on the
destination host until the source host has disassociated the interface.
This patch moves IFF_UP of the interface to the final stage of migration.
The motivation for this change is to postpone any addr registrations on the
destination host until the source host has done the addr deregistrations.
While at it, for symmetry with associate move ifDown of a 8021Qbh interface
to before disassociate
Currently, we need virIsDevMapperDevice() when we build libvirt with
disk or mpath storage drivers. So we should check device-mapper-devel
when we build with disk storage driver but without mpath storage
driver.
