Currently, if lzop decompression binary produces a warning, it
doesn't exit with zero status but 2 instead. Terrifying, but
true. However, warnings may be ignored using '--ignore-warn'
command line argument. Moreover, in which case, the exit status
will be zero.
For both AttachDevice and UpdateDevice APIs, if the disk device
is 'cdrom' or 'floppy', the operations could be ejecting, updating,
and inserting. For either ejecting or updating, the shared disk
entry of the original disk src has to be removed, because it's
not useful anymore.
And since the original disk def will be changed, new disk def passed
as argument will be free'ed in qemuDomainChangeEjectableMedia, so
we need to copy the orignal disk def before
qemuDomainChangeEjectableMedia, to use it for qemuRemoveSharedDisk.
The disk def could be free'ed by qemuDomainChangeEjectableMedia,
which can thus cause crash if we reference the disk pointer. On
the other hand, we have to remove the added shared disk entry from
the table on error codepath.
The hash entry is changed from "ref" to {ref, @domains}. With this, the
caller can simply call qemuRemoveSharedDisk, without afraid of removing
the entry belongs to other domains. qemuProcessStart will obviously
benifit from it on error codepath (which calls qemuProcessStop to do
the cleanup).
Based on moving various checking into qemuAddSharedDisk, this
avoids the caller using it in wrong ways. Also this adds two
new checking for qemuCheckSharedDisk (disk device not 'lun'
and kernel doesn't support unpriv_sgio simply returns 0).
Due to "feature"/"features" nasty typo, any features marked as mandatory

The conversion to qemuCaps dropped the ability with qemu{,-kvm} 1.2 and
newer to set the lost tick policy for the PIT. While the
-no-kvm-pit-reinjection option is depreacated, it is still supported at
least through 1.4, it is better to not lose the functionality.
The qemu driver had been calling virSecurityManagerSetProcessLabel()
from a "pre-exec hook" function that is run after the child is forked,
but before exec'ing qemu. This is problematic because the uid and gid
of the child are set by the security driver, but capabilities are
dropped by virCommand - such separation doesn't work; the two
operations must be done together or the capabilities do not transfer
properly to the child process.
This patch switches to using virSecurityManagerSetChildProcessLabel(),
which is called prior to virCommandRun() (rather than being called
*during* virCommandrun() by the hook function), and doesn't set the
UID/GID/security label directly, but instead merely informs virCommand
what it should set them all to when the time is appropriate.
This lets virCommand choose to do the uid/gid and caps dropping all at
the same time if it wants (it does *want* to, but isn't doing so yet;
that's for an upcoming patch).
Setting the uid/gid of the child process was the only thing done by
the hook function in this case, and that can now be done more simply
with virCommandSetUID/GID.
With the majority of fields in the virQEMUDriverPtr struct
now immutable or self-locking, there is no need for practically
any methods to be using the QEMU driver lock. Only a handful
of helper APIs in qemu_conf.c now need it
The hook scripts used by virCommand must be careful wrt
accessing any mutexes that may have been held by other
threads in the parent process. With the recent refactoring
there are 2 potential flaws lurking, which will become real
deadlock bugs once the global QEMU driver lock is removed.
Remove use of the QEMU driver lock from the hook function
by passing in the 'virQEMUDriverConfigPtr' instance directly.
Add functions to the virSecurityManager to be invoked before
and after fork, to ensure the mutex is held by the current
thread. This allows it to be safely used in the hook script
in the child process.

It seems like with new udev within guest OS, the tray is locked,
so we need to:
- 'eject'
- wait for tray to open
- 'change'
Moreover, even when doing bare 'eject', we should check for
'tray_open' as guest may have locked the tray. However, the
waiting phase shouldn't be unbounded, so I've chosen 10 retries
maximum, each per 500ms. This should give enough time for guest
to eject a media and open the tray.
With our code, we fail to query for tray-open attribute currently.
That's because in HMP it is 'tray-open' and in QMP it's 'tray_open'.
It always has been. However, we got it exactly the opposite.

qemu: Fix QMP Capabability Probing Failure
which attempted to make sure the QEMU process used for probing
ran as the right user id, caused serious performance regression
and unreliability in probing. The -daemonize switch in QEMU
guarantees that the monitor socket is present before the parent
process exits. This means libvirtd is guaranteed to be able to
connect immediately. By switching from -daemonize to the
virCommandDaemonize API libvirtd was no longer synchronized with
QEMU's startup process. The result was that the QEMU monitor
failed to open and went into its 200ms sleep loop. This happened
for all 25 binaries resulting in 5 seconds worth of sleeping
at libvirtd startup. In addition sometimes when libvirt connected,
QEMU would be partially initialized and crash causing total
failure to probe that binary.
This commit reverts the previous change, ensuring we do use the
-daemonize flag to QEMU. Startup delay is cut from 7 seconds
to 2 seconds on my machine, which is on a par with what it was
prior to the capabilities rewrite.
To deal with the fact that QEMU needs to be able to create the
pidfile, we switch pidfile location fron runDir to libDir, which
QEMU is guaranteed to be able to write to.

Currently, there is no reason to hold qemu driver locked
throughout whole API execution. Moreover, we can use the
new qemuDomObjFromDomain() internal API to lookup domain then.
Hosts for rbd are ceph monitor daemons. These have fixed IP addresses,
so they are often referenced by IP rather than hostname for
convenience, or to avoid relying on DNS. Using IPv4 addresses as the
host name works already, but IPv6 addresses require rbd-specific
escaping because the colon is used as an option separator in the
string passed to qemu.
Escape these colons, and enclose the IPv6 address in square brackets
so it is distinguished from the port, which is currently mandatory.

The way in that memory balloon suppression was handled for S390
is flawed for a number or reasons.
1. Just preventing the default balloon to be created in the case
of VIR_ARCH_S390[X] is not sufficient. An explicit memballoon
element in the guest definition will still be honored, resulting
both in a -balloon option and the allocation of a PCI bus address,
neither being supported.
2. Prohibiting balloon for S390 altogether at a domain_conf level
is no good solution either as there's work in progress on the QEMU
side to implement a virtio-balloon device, although in
conjunction with a new machine type. Suppressing the balloon
should therefore be done at the QEMU driver level depending
on the present capabilities.
Therefore we remove the conditional suppression of the default
balloon in domain_conf.c.
Further, we are claiming the memballoon device for virtio-s390
during device address assignment to prevent it from being considered
as a PCI device.
Finally, we suppress the generation of the balloon command line option
if this is a virtio-s390 machine.

One of my previous patches (f2a4e5f176) tried to fix crashing
libvirtd on domain detroy. However, we need to copy pattern from
qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF() instead of decrementing reference
counter. The rationale for this is, if qemu process is dying due
to domain being destroyed, we obtain EOF on both the monitor and
agent sockets. However, if the exit is expected, qemuProcessStop
is called, which cleans both agent and monitor sockets up. We
want qemuAgentClose() to be called iff the EOF is not expected,
so we don't leak an FD and memory. Moreover, there could be race
with qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF() which could have already
closed the agent socket, in which case we don't want to do
anything.
Adds a "ram" attribute globally to the video.model element, that changes
the resulting qemu command line only if video.type == "qxl".
<video>
<model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
</video>
That attribute gets a default value of 64*1024. The schema is unchanged
for other video element types.
The resulting qemu command line change is the addition of
-global qxl-vga.ram_size=<ram>*1024
or
-global qxl.ram_size=<ram>*1024
For the main and secondary qxl devices respectively.
The default for the qxl ram bar is 64*1024 kilobytes (the same as the
default qxl vram bar size).
This avoids "Event negative_returns: A negative constant "-1" is passed as

When the name contains slashes the creation of the file fails. Reject

When running virDomainDestroy, we need to make sure that no other

This can happen if we release the domain object while in the

from doing its normal cleanup. Unfortunately this flag was only
being used to protect qemuDomainBeginJob, and not qemuProcessKill

With current code, if user calls virDomainPMSuspendForDuration()
followed by virDomainDestroy(), the former API checks for qemu agent
presence, which will evaluate as true (if agent is configured). While
talking to qemu agent, the qemu driver is unlocked, so the latter API
starts executing. However, if machine dies meanwhile, libvirtd gets
EOF on the agent socket and qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF() is called. The
handler clears reference to qemu agent while the destroy API already
holding a reference to it. This leads to NULL dereferencing later in
the code. Therefore, the agent pointer should be set to NULL only if
we are the exclusive owner of it.

Currently, if there's no hard memory limit defined for a domain,
libvirt tries to calculate one, based on domain definition and magic
equation and set it upon the domain startup. The rationale behind was,
if there's a memory leak or exploit in qemu, we should prevent the
host system trashing. However, the equation was too tightening, as it
didn't reflect what the kernel counts into the memory used by a
process. Since many hosts do have a swap, nobody hasn't noticed
anything, because if hard memory limit is reached, process can
continue allocating memory on a swap. However, if there is no swap on
the host, the process gets killed by OOM killer. In our case, the qemu
process it is.
To prevent this, we need to relax the hard RSS limit. Moreover, we
should reflect more precisely the kernel way of accounting the memory
for process. That is, even the kernel caches are counted within the
memory used by a process (within cgroups at least). Hence the magic
equation has to be changed:
limit = 1.5 * (domain memory + total video memory) + (32MB for cache
per each disk) + 200MB
