Currently, only one log file is created by the libxl driver, with
all output from libxl for all domains going to this one file.
Create a per-domain log file based on domain name, making sifting
through the logs a bit easier. This required deferring libxl_ctx
allocation until starting the domain, which is fine since the
ctx is not used when the domain is inactive.

The avail_vcpu bitmap has to be allocated before it can be used (using
the maximum allowed value for that). Then for each available VCPU the
bit in the mask has to be set (libxl_bitmap_set takes a bit position
as an argument, not the number of bits to set).
Without this, I would always only get one VCPU for guests created
through libvirt/libxl.

Although, having it depending on Xen >= 4.3 (by using the proper
libxl feature flag).
Xen currently implements a NUMA placement policy which is basically
the same as the 'interleaved' policy of `numactl', although it can
be applied on a subset of the available nodes. We therefore hardcode
"interleave" as 'numa_mode', and we use the newly introduced libxl
interface to figure out what nodes a domain spans ('numa_nodeset').
With this change, it is now possible to query the NUMA node

When creating a timer/event handler reference counting is used. So it could
be possible (in theory) that libxlDomainObjPrivateFree is called with

The legacy xen toolstack will set pygrub as the bootloader if not
specified. For compatibility, do the same in the libxl driver
iff not using direct kernel boot.
Currently, the libxl driver reports a connection type of "xenlight".
To be compatible with the legacy Xen driver, it should return "Xen".
Note: I noticed this while testing the libxl driver on OpenStack.
After switching my Xen compute nodes to use the libxl stack, I
could no longer launch instances on those nodes since
hypervisor_type was reported as "xenlight" instead of "xen".
libxl expects the event handler to free the event passed to it. From
libxl_event.h:
event becomes owned by the application and must be freed, either
by event_occurs or later
Xen 4.3 fixes a mistake in the libxl event handler signature where the
event owned by the application was defined as const. Detect this and
define the libvirt libxl event handler signature appropriately.
This resolves:

The first problem was that virFileOpenAs was returning fd (-1) in one
of the error cases rather than ret (-errno), so the caller thought
that the error was EPERM rather than ENOENT.
The second problem was that some log messages in the general purpose
qemuOpenFile() function would always say "Failed to create" even if
the caller hadn't included O_CREAT (i.e. they were trying to open an
existing file).
This fixes virFileOpenAs to jump down to the error return (which
returns ret instead of fd) in the previously mentioned incorrect
failure case of virFileOpenAs(), removes all error logging from
virFileOpenAs() (since the callers report it), and modifies
qemuOpenFile to appropriately use "open" or "create" in its log
messages.
NB: I seriously considered removing logging from all callers of
virFileOpenAs(), but there is at least one case where the caller
doesn't want virFileOpenAs() to log any errors, because it's just
going to try again (qemuOpenFile()). We can't simply make a silent
variation of virFileOpenAs() though, because qemuOpenFile() can't make
the decision about whether or not it wants to retry until after
virFileOpenAs() has already returned an error code.
Likewise, I also considered changing virFileOpenAs() to return -1 with
errno set on return, and may still do that, but only as a separate
patch, as it obscures the intent of this patch too much.
The LXC, QEMU, and LibXL drivers have all merged their handling of
the attach/update/modify device APIs into one large
'xxxxDomainModifyDeviceFlags'
which then does a 'switch()' based on the actual API being invoked.
While this saves some lines of code, it is not really all that
significant in the context of the driver API impls as a whole.
This merger of the handling of different APIs creates pain when
wanting to automated analysis of the code and do things which
are specific to individual APIs. The slight duplication of code
from unmerged the API impls, is preferrable to allow for easier
automated analysis.

Currently the virGetHostname() API has a bogus virConnectPtr
parameter. This is because virtualization drivers directly
reference this API in their virDriverPtr tables, tieing its
API design to the public virConnectGetHostname API design.
This also causes problems for access control checks since
these must only be done for invocations from the public
API, not internal invocation.
Remove the bogus virConnectPtr parameter, and make each
hypervisor driver provide a dedicated function for the
driver API impl. This will allow access control checks
to be easily inserted later.

This patch refactors various places to allow removing of the
defaultConsoleTargetType callback from the virCaps structure.
A new console character device target type is introduced -
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_NONE - to mark that no type was
specified in the XML. This type is at the end converted to the standard
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_SERIAL. Other types that are
different from this default have to be processed separately in the
device post parse callback.
Use the virDomainXMLConf structure to hold this data and tweak the code
to avoid semantic change.
Without configuration the KVM mac prefix is used by default. I chose it
as it's in the privately administered segment so it should be usable for
any purposes.
This patch adds instrumentation that will allow hypervisor drivers to
fill and validate domain and device definitions after parsed by the XML
parser.
With this patch, after the XML is parsed, a callback to the driver is
issued requesting to fill and validate driver specific details of the
configuration. This allows to use sensible defaults and checks on a per
driver basis at the time the XML is parsed.
Two callback pointers are stored in the new virDomainXMLConf object:
* virDomainDeviceDefPostParseCallback (devicesPostParseCallback)
- called for a single device parsed and for every single device in a
domain config. A virDomainDeviceDefPtr is passed along with the
domain definition and virCaps.
* virDomainDefPostParseCallback, (domainPostParseCallback)
- A callback that is meant to process the domain config after it's
parsed. A virDomainDefPtr is passed along with virCaps.
Both types of callbacks support arbitrary opaque data passed for the
callback functions.
Errors may be reported in those callbacks resulting in a XML parsing
failure.
This patch is the result of running:
for i in $(git ls-files | grep -v html | grep -v \.po$ ); do
sed -i -e "s/virDomainXMLConf/virDomainXMLOption/g" -e "s/xmlconf/xmlopt/g" $i
done
and a few manual tweaks.
The virCaps structure gathered a ton of irrelevant data over time that.
The original reason is that it was propagated to the XML parser
functions.
This patch aims to create a new data structure virDomainXMLConf that
will contain immutable data that are used by the XML parser. This will
allow two things we need:
1) Get rid of the stuff from virCaps
2) Allow us to add callbacks to check and add driver specific stuff
after domain XML is parsed.
This first attempt removes pointers to private data allocation functions
to this new structure and update all callers and function that require
them.
1. The virObjectLock() call was unconditional, but Unlock was conditional
on vm being valid. Removed the check
2. A call to virDomainEventNewFromObj() isn't guaranteed to return an
event - that check needs to be made prior to libxlDomainEventQueue()
of the event. Did not add libxlDriverLock/Unlock around the call since
some callers already have lock taken
3. Need to initialize fd = -1 in libxlDoDomainSave() since we can jump
to cleanup before it's set.
4. Missing break;'s in libxlDomainModifyDeviceFlags() for case
LIBXL_DEVICE_UPDATE. The default: case would report an error

The duplicate VM checking should be done atomically with

Instead just use flags to indicate what kind of checks are

if (virDomainObjListIsDuplicate(privconn->domains, def, 1) < 0)
goto cleanup;
if (!(dom = virDomainObjListAdd(privconn->domains,
privconn->caps,
def, true)))
goto cleanup;
Changes to
if (!(dom = virDomainObjListAdd(privconn->domains,
privconn->caps,
def,
VIR_DOMAIN_OBJ_LIST_ADD_LIVE |
VIR_DOMAIN_OBJ_LIST_ADD_CHECK_LIVE,
NULL)))
goto cleanup;
This pair, used in virDomainDefineXML:
if (virDomainObjListIsDuplicate(privconn->domains, def, 0) < 0)
goto cleanup;
if (!(dom = virDomainObjListAdd(privconn->domains,
privconn->caps,
def, false)))
goto cleanup;
Changes to
if (!(dom = virDomainObjListAdd(privconn->domains,
privconn->caps,
def,
0, NULL)))
goto cleanup;
As a step towards making virDomainObjList thread-safe turn it
into an opaque virObject, preventing any direct access to its
internals.
As part of this a new method virDomainObjListForEach is
introduced to replace all existing usage of virHashForEach
Since libxl provides the domain ID in the event handler callback,
find the domain object based on the ID. This approach prevents
processing the callback on a domain that has already been reaped.
Also, similar to the xl implementation, ignore the SUSPEND shutdown
reason. By calling libxl_domain_suspend(), we know a shutdown
event with SUSPEND reason will be generated, but it can be safely
ignored since any subsequent cleanup will be done by the callers.
libxlDoDomainSave() was removing non-persistent domains, but
required callers to have the virDomainObj locked. Callers could
potentially unlock an already freed virDomainObj. Move this
logic to the callers of libxlDoDomainSave().
I've noticed that libxl can invoke timeout reregister/modify hooks
after returning from libxl_ctx_free. Explicitly remove the
timeouts before freeing the libxl ctx to avoid executing hooks on
stale objects.
It is possible to destroy and cleanup a VM, resulting in freeing the
libxlDomainObjPrivate object and associated libxl ctx, before all fds and
timeouts have been deregistered and destroyed.
Fix this race by incrementing the reference count on libxlDomainObjPrivate
for each fd and timeout registration. Only when all fds and timeouts are
deregistered and destroyed will the libxlDomainObjPrivate be destroyed.
The libxl driver is racy in it's interactions with libxl and libvirt's
event loop. The event loop can invoke callbacks after libxl has
deregistered the event, and possibly access freed data associated with
the event.
This patch fixes the race by converting libxlDomainObjPrivate to a
virObjectLockable, and locking it while executing libxl upcalls and
libvirt event loop callbacks.
Note that using the virDomainObj lock is not satisfactory since it may
be desirable to hold the virDomainObj lock even when libxl events such
as reading and writing to xenstore need processed.
xen-unstable changeset 26469 makes changes wrt modifying and deregistering
timeouts.
First, timeout modify callbacks will only be invoked with an
abs_t of {0,0}, i.e. make the timeout fire immediately. Prior to this
commit, timeout modify callbacks were never invoked.
Second, timeout deregister hooks will no longer be called.
This patch makes changes in the libvirt libxl driver that should be
compatible before and after changeset 26469.
While at it, fix a potential overflow in the timeout register callback.

Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically
poll all stateful drivers. Thus sucks because it requires

due to existance of active VMs.

For S390, the default console target type cannot be of type 'serial'.
It is necessary to at least interpret the 'arch' attribute
value of the os/type element to produce the correct default type.
Therefore we need to extend the signature of defaultConsoleTargetType
to account for architecture. As a consequence all the drivers
supporting this capability function must be updated.
Despite the amount of changed files, the only change in behavior is
that for S390 the default console target type will be 'virtio'.
N.B.: A more future-proof approach could be to to use hypervisor
specific capabilities to determine the best possible console type.
For instance one could add an opaque private data pointer to the
virCaps structure (in case of QEMU to hold capsCache) which could
then be passed to the defaultConsoleTargetType callback to determine
the console target type.
Seems to be however a bit overengineered for the use case...

When the last reference to a virConnectPtr is released by
libvirtd, it was possible for a deadlock to occur in the
virDomainEventState functions. The virDomainEventStatePtr
holds a reference on virConnectPtr for each registered
callback. When removing a callback, the virUnrefConnect
function is run. If this causes the last reference on the
virConnectPtr to be released, then virReleaseConnect can
be run, which in turns calls qemudClose. This function has
a call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn which is intended
to remove all callbacks associated with the virConnectPtr
instance. This will try to grab a lock on virDomainEventState
but this lock is already held. Deadlock ensues
Thread 1 (Thread 0x7fcbb526a840 (LWP 23185)):
Since each callback associated with a virConnectPtr holds a
reference on virConnectPtr, it is impossible for the qemudClose
method to be invoked while any callbacks are still registered.
Thus the call to virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn must in fact
be a no-op. Thus it is possible to just remove all trace of
virDomainEventStateDeregisterConn and avoid the deadlock.
