There is some controversy[1] on the qemu list on whether qemu should
have ever allowed arbitrary file name passthrough, or whether it
should be restricted to JUST /dev/random and /dev/hwrng. It is
always easier to add support for additional filenames than it is
to remove support for something once released, so this patch
restricts libvirt 1.0.3 (where the virtio-random backend was first
supported) to just the two uncontroversial names, letting us defer
to a later date any decision on whether supporting arbitrary files
makes sense. Additionally, since qemu 1.4 does NOT support
/dev/fdset/nnn fd passthrough for the backend, limiting to just
two known names means that we don't get tempted to try fd
passthrough where it won't work.

19c6ad9a (qemu: Refactor qemuDomainSetMemoryParameters) introduced
a new macro, VIR_GET_LIMIT_PARAMETER(PARAM, VALUE). But if statement
in the macro is not correct and so set_XXXX flags are set to false
in the wrong. As a result, libvirt ignores all memtune parameters.
This patch fixes the conditional expression to work correctly.

by using prefix "libvirt:" when working with upper application.

I just stumbled over that very issue on F18. Doing a little bit
debugging of the shutdown sequence, it turns out that - at least on my
F18 installation - libvirtd is shutdown *after* iscsid, which makes it
impossible for libvirt to perform the logout of the iscsi session properly.
This patch simply adds another startup dependancy on iscsid.service
which in turn delays iscsid shutdown until after libvirtd has stopped.
Having that applied, the system shuts down properly again.

Commit f506a4c1 changed virSetUIDGID() to be a noop
when uid/gid are -1, while it used to be a noop when
they are <= 0.
The changes in this commit broke creating new VMs in GNOME Boxes
as qemuDomainCheckDiskPresence gets called during domain creation/startup,
which in turn calls virFileAccessibleAs which fails after calling
virSetUIDGID(0, 0) (Boxes uses session libvirtd). virSetUIDGID is called with
(0, 0) as these are the default user/group values in virQEMUDriverConfig
for session libvirtd.
This commit changes virQEMUDriverConfigNew to use -1 as the unpriviledged
uid/gid. I've also looked at the various places where cfg->user is used,
and they all seem to handle -1 correctly.
Currently, after we removed the qemu driver lock, it may happen
that two or more threads will start up a machine with macvlan and
race over virNetDevMacVLanCreateWithVPortProfile(). However,
there's a racy section in which we are generating a sequence of
possible device names and detecting if they exits. If we found
one which doesn't we try to create a device with that name.
However, the other thread is doing just the same. Assume it will
succeed and we must therefore fail. If this happens more than 5
times (which in massive parallel startup surely will) we return
-1 without any error reported. This patch is a simple hack to
both of these problems. It introduces a mutex, so only one thread
will enter the section, and if it runs out of possibilities,
error is reported. Moreover, the number of retries is raised to 20.
This reverts the hack done in

qemu: Avoid deadlock in autodestroy
since we now have a fix which avoids the deadlock scenario
entirely
There is a lock ordering problem in the QEMU close callback
APIs.
When starting a guest we have a lock on the VM. We then
set a autodestroy callback, which acquires a lock on the
close callbacks.
When running auto-destroy, we obtain a lock on the close
callbacks, then run each callbacks - which obtains a lock
on the VM.
This causes deadlock if anyone tries to start a VM, while
autodestroy is taking place.
The fix is to do autodestroy in 2 phases. First obtain
all the callbacks and remove them from the list under
the close callback lock. Then invoke each callback
from outside the close callback lock.

When the auto-destroy callback runs it is supposed to return
NULL if the virDomainObjPtr is no longer valid. It was not
doing this for transient guests, so we tried to virObjectUnlock
a mutex which had been freed. This often led to a crash.

error: Failed to start domain test-kvm
error: internal error security label already defined for VM
The model field of virSecurityLabelDef object is always populated
by virDomainDefGetSecurityLabelDef(), so remove the check for a
NULL model when verifying if a label is already defined for the
instance.
Checking for a NULL model and populating it later in
AppArmorGenSecurityLabel() has been left in the code to be
consistent with virSecuritySELinuxGenSecurityLabel().

Currently, qemuDomainShutdownFlags() chooses the agent method of
shutdown whenever the agent is configured. However, this
assumption is not enough as the guest agent may be unresponsive
at the moment. So unless guest agent method has been explicitly
requested, we should fall back to the ACPI method.
The unitialized local variable qemuVersion can cause an random value
to be returned for the hypervisor version, observable with virsh version.

The QEMU driver has a list of devices nodes that are whitelisted
for all guests. The kernel has recently started returning an
error if you try to whitelist a device which does not exist.
This causes a warning in libvirt logs and an audit error for
any missing devices. eg

This is because it has only created child cgroups for 3 of the
controllers, but was trying to move the processes from all the
controllers. The fix is to only try to move threads in the
controllers we actually created. Also remove the warning and
make it return a hard error to avoid such lazy callers in the
future.

The virQEMUCloseCallbacksRunOne method was passing a uuid string
to virDomainObjListFindByUUID, when it actually expected to get
a raw uuid buffer. This was not caught by the compiler because
the method was using a 'void *uuid' instead of first casting
it to the expected type.
This regression was accidentally caused by refactoring in

qemu: Avoid deadlock in autodestroy
Signed-off-by: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=896092 mentions that
qemu 1.4 and earlier only accept a simple start-stop range for
the cpu=... argument of -numa. Libvirt would attempt to use
-numa cpu=1,3 for a disjoint range, which did not work as intended.
Upstream qemu will be adding a new syntax for disjoint cpu ranges
in 1.5; but the design for that syntax is still under discussion
at the time of this patch. So for libvirt 1.0.3, it is safest to
just reject attempts to build an invalid qemu command line; in the
future, we can add a capability bit and translate to the final
accepted design for selecting a disjoint cpu range in numa.
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c (qemuBuildNumaArgStr): Reject disjoint
ranges.
This reverts commit 383ebc4694.
We decided the xml for this feature needed more thought to make sure
we are doing it the best way, in particular wrt option values that
have multiple items.
These two flags in fact are mutually exclusive. Requesting them both
doesn't make any sense regardless of hypervisor driver. Hence, we have
to make it within libvirt.c file instead of fixing it in each driver.
Add qed for dirfs pool.
Add ocfs2 for disk pool.
Add lvm2 for disk and logical pool.
Add cifs and glusterfs for netfs pool.
Note: POOL_DISK_LVM2 can not be created by "parted mklabel", but is only
returned from auto-detection on disk pools.
