MAC address of a particular interface may change over time, and the
reduced virInterface object (which contains just name and mac) needs
to reflect these changes. Since we can't modify the mac address of an
existing virInterface (some other thread may currently be using it) we
just create a new virInterface, and let the old one die a dignified
death when its refct goes to 0.
* src/datatypes.c: fix the matching and lifetime of virInterface object
accordingly
* include/libvirt/virterror.h src/virterror.c: if a driver's
virInterfaceLookupByMACString() function finds more than one interface
with the desired MAC Address, this new error is raised.
* libvirt.spec.in: make a client rpm with shared libs, client binaries
and resources needed by those, and a small number of fixes and
cleanups in the spec file.
* docs/Makefile.am ($(top_builddir)/NEWS): Adjust rule to filter
out any trailing blank lines when generating this file.
* NEWS: Regenerate, so that it contains entries for 0.6.5.
* src/virsh.c: add a number of interface related commands:
iface-list, iface-name, iface-mac, iface-dumpxml, iface-define,
iface-undefine, iface-edit, iface-start and iface-destroy
Unlike the pty monitor (which we know exists since we scrape its path from
stdout), we have no way of knowing that the unix monitor socket should exist/
be initialized. As a result, some of my KVM guests randomly fail to start on
F10 host.
Try to open the unix socket in a 3 second timeout loop. Ignore EACCES (path
does not exist if a first time run) and ECONNREFUSED (leftover socket from
a previous run hasn't been removed yet). Fixes things for me.
Have storage building functions be definitions of
virStorageBackendBuildVolFrom: we will need to do this in the future anyways
if we ever support the flags attribute.
Break out separate functions for
- Determining the supported '*-img' tool,
- The tool's associated create function,
- Desired function for cloning (CreateXMLFrom).
This will be eventually used to unify cloning across all backends.
Currently, if no format is specified for a new disk volume, we pass the
invalid value "none" as the FS type to 'parted mkpart'.
There doesn't seem to be a way to have parted not format the drive, so
just default to using 'ext2' in this case: this shouldn't cause any harm,
since we are creating a new partition in the first place.
The code in cfg.mk to detect when the git submodule was out of date
worked most of the time, but not when checked out in a certain way.
* cfg.mk: Extract submodule hash from command output and file,
and compare only that, since the format of the full line may vary.

* configure.in: Add --with-qemu-user and --with-qemu-group args
* libvirt.spec.in: use 'qemu' for user/group for Fedora >= 12
* qemud/libvirtd_qemu.arg, qemud/test_libvirtd_qemu.aug,
src/qemu.conf: Add 'user' and 'group' args for configuration
* src/Makefile.am: Create %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu_conf.h: Load user/group from config
* src/qemu_driver.c: Change user ID/group ID when launching QEMU
guests. Change user/group ownership on disks/usb/pci devs.
Put memory dumps in %localstatedir/cache/libvirt/qemu
* src/util.c, src/util.h: Add convenient APIs for converting
username/groupname to user ID / group ID
* src/driver.h: add new driver functions virDrvNumOfDefinedInterfaces
and virDrvListDefinedInterfaces
* src/libvirt.c: implements the entry points, calling new driver
functions
* qemud/remote.c qemud/remote_dispatch_args.h qemud/remote_protocol.[chx]
qemud/remote_dispatch_prototypes.h qemud/remote_dispatch_ret.h
qemud/remote_dispatch_table.h src/remote_internal.c: implement the
client/server side of the RPC
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h[.in]: adds signatures for the new exported
functions virConnectNumOfDefinedInterfaces and
virConnectListDefinedInterfaces
* src/libvirt_public.syms: export the new symbols
Remove redundant error reporting functions which obscured the
filename/line number reporting. Removed code which created a
virDomain/virNetwork object, since those are silently dropped
in error reporting functions now
* src/remote_internal.c: Remove error() and errorf() in favour of
macros, and remove server_error in favour of direct call
Splits up the 'call' method moving generic IO code out into
separate method to allow it to be easily reused for sending
data streams
* src/remote_internal.c: Split 'call' into two methods, the first
with same name serializes a set of method arguments into a
message, the second 'remoteIO' takes a pre-serialized messages,
sends it and awaits a reply
* src/remote_internal.c: Rename processCallRecvMsg to
processCallDispatch, and move code specific to method replies
into processCallDispatchReply, and rename processCallAsyncEvent
to processCallDispatchMessage
The 'remote_message_header' struct has a mis-leadingly named
field 'direction'. It is really a reflection of the type of
message, and some types can be sent in either direction. Thus
the field is more accurately named 'type'. No function change.
* qemud/remote_protocol.x: Rename 'direction' to 'type' in
'remote_message_header. Write better docs describing the
message header field semantics & usage
* qemud/remote_protocol.c, qemud/remote_protocol.h: Regenerate
* qemud/remote.c, qemud/dispatch.c, src/remote_internal.c
Update to reflect rename of 'direction' to 'type'
All incoming messages currently get routed to the generic method
remoteDispatchClientRequest() for processing. To allow incoming
data stream messages to bypass this and be routed to a specific
location, a concept of dispatch filters is introduced.
* qemud/qemud.h: Add a qemud_client_filter struct and a callback
qemud_client_filter_func. Maintain a list of filters on every
struct qemud_client
* qemud/qemud.c: Move remoteDecodeClientMessageHeader() out of
qemudWorker() into qemudDispatchClientRead(). Check registered
message filters in qemudDispatchClientRead() to decide where
to send incoming messages for dispatch.
The remoteDispatchClientRequest() method is currently hardwired to
assume there is only one type of incoming message, a method call.
To allow for alternate types of incoming messags, the code that is
specific to method calls is being split into a separate method
remoteDispatchClientCall
* qemud/dispatch.c: Move method call specific code out into
remoteDispatchClientCall. Add a helper remoteSerializeError
for returning error messages to client
The current qemudRegisterClientEvent() code is used both for
registering the initial socket watch, and updating the already
registered watch. This causes unneccessary complexity in alot
of code which only cares about updating existing watches. The
updating of a watch cannot ever fail, nor is a reference to the
'qemud_server' object required.
This introduces a new qemudUpdateClientEvent() method for that
case, allowing the elimination of unneccessary error checking
and removal of the server back-reference in struct qemud_client.
* qemud/qemud.h: Remove 'server' field from struct qemud_client.
Add qemudUpdateClientEvent() method. Remove 'update' param
from qemudRegisterClientEvent method
* qemud/dispatch.c, qemud/qemud.c, qemud/remote.c: Update alot
of code to use qemudUpdateClientEvent() instead of
qemudRegisterClientEvent(). Move more logic from remoteRelayDomainEvent
into remoteDispatchDomainEventSend.
This removes an assumption from qemudWorker() code that every
incoming message will generate a reply.
* qemud/dispatch.c: remoteDispatchClientRequest now has responsibility
for queuing the reply message to the RPC call
* qemud/qemud.c: Do not queue the RPC call reply in qemudWorker(),
allowing remoteDispatchClientRequest() to take care of it
The naming convention for structs used in the RPC layer is for
incoming requests to be called XXXX_args, and the associated
outgoing reply to be called XXXX_ret. Asynchronously emitted
messages (eg events) are re-using the XXXX_ret naming scheme.
This patch changes that such that async messages are XXXX_msg,
and stops adding entries for them in the dispatch table, avoiding
the need for a dummy no-op implementation.
* qemud/remote.c: Remove dummy remoteDispatchDomainEvent, no
longer required. Update to replace remote_domain_event_ret
with xdr_remote_domain_event_msg
* qemud/remote_protocol.x: Rename remote_domain_event_ret to
remote_domain_event_msg
* qemud/remote_generate_stubs.pl: Adding handling for new
XXX_msg structs.
* src/remote_internal.c: Rename remote_domain_event_ret to
remote_domain_event_msg
* qemud/remote_dispatch_prototypes.h, qemud/remote_dispatch_ret.h,
qemud/remote_dispatch_table.h, qemud/remote_protocol.h,
qemud/remote_protocol.c: auto-regenerate
Introduces an API for encoding the header field for outgoing messages
allowing some duplicated code to be eliminated
* qemud/dispatch.c, qemud/dispatch.h: add remoteEncodeClientMessageHeader
for encoding message header. Update remoteDispatchClientRequest to
use this method.
* qemud/remote.c: Update remoteDispatchDomainEventSend to use the
generic remoteEncodeClientMessageHeader() for encoding event
message hedaders. Push some logic from remoteRelayDomainEvent
down into remoteDispatchDomainEventSend.
Separate the decoding of incoming request header out from the
dispatch code. This will allow later code to making dispatcher
routing decisions based on the header field data.
* qemud/dispatch.c, qemud/dispatch.h: Add remoteDecodeClientMessageHeader
API for decoding the header of a client message. Update the
remoteDispatchClientRequest method to assume a pre-decoded
header.
* qemud/qemud.h: Include a 'remote_message_header' field in
'struct qemud_client_message' for pre-decoded header data
* qemud/qemud.c: Decode the incoming client message header before
invoking remoteDispatchClientRequest
* src/virsh.c: adds cd and pwd commands to virsh useful for save and
restore commands
* docs/virsh.pod virsh.1: update the documentation
* AUTHORS: add Paolo Bonzini
This makes "make syntax-check" fail when a version-controlled
file contains a trailing blank line.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_trailing_blank_lines): New rule.
by running this command:
git ls-files -z | xargs -0 perl -pi -0777 -e 's/\n\n+$/\n/'
This is in preparation for a more strict make syntax-check
rule that will detect trailing blank lines.
* src/remote_internal.c: Disable libvirtd autostart if the
LIBVIRT_AUTOSTART=0 env variable is set
* src/libvirt.c: Document environment variables can impact
the virConnectOpen API
* tests/interfaceschematest: test all XML data against the interface
schemas
* tests/interfacexml2xmltest.c: parse and reserialize all XML data
and check the output is identical
* tests/Makefile.am: hook up the tests
* tests/.gitignore: add ignore test
