b295f06da4 util: support device stats collection for <interface type='hostdev'>
libvirt can retrieve traffic stats for emulated interfaces that are
backed by tap or macvtap devices, but this information wasn't
available for hostdev interfaces (those that are implemented by
assigning an SR-IOV VF device to a guest using vfio):

  #virsh domifstat instance --interface=52:54:00:2d:b2:35
  error: Failed to get interface stats instance 52:54:00:2d:b2:35
  error: internal error: Interface name not provided

For some SR-IOV VF devices this information is available via the
netlink VFINFO_LIST request/response, and that is what this patch uses
to implement stats retrieval for VF. Not that this is dependent on
support in the PF driver - for example, the Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx
(mlx5) driver reports usable stats, while Intel 82599 (ixgbe) and
82576 (igb) just report all stats as 0.  (this is the same result as
"ip -s link show").

This helper changes the root qdisc on given interface.
Ideally, it would be written using netlink but my attempts to

49a58cb9c9 util: provide non-netlink/libnl alternative for virNetDevGetMaster()
Lack of this one function (which is called for each active tap device
every time libvirtd is started) is the one thing preventing a
"WITHOUT_LIBNL" build of libvirt from being useful. With this
alternate implementation, guests using standard tap devices will work
properly even when libvirt is built without libnl support.

717615856c util: fix Linux build when libnl-devel isn't available
There was one stray bit of code in virnetdev.c that required libnl to
build, but wasn't qualified by defined(WITH_LIBNL). Adding that, plus
putting a similar check around a static function only used by that
aforementioned code, makes libvirt build properly without libnl3-devel
installed.

How useful it is in that state is a separate issue :-)

WITH_LIBNL will only be defined on Linux platforms (because libnl is a
library written to encapsulate parts of netlink, which is a Linux-only
API), so it's redundant to write:

  #if defined(__linux__) && defined(WITH_LIBNL)

3d5748e87a util: remove useless checks for IFLA_VF_MAX
IFLA_VF_MAX was introduced to the Linux kernel in 2.6.35, and was even
backported to the RHEL*6* 2.6.32 kernel downstream, so it is present
in all supported versions of all Linux distros that libvirt builds
on. Additionally, it can't be conditionally compiled out of a
kernel. There is no reason to conditionalize any piece of code on
presence of IFLA_VF_MAX - if the platform is Linux, it is supported.

95b9db4ee2 lib: Prefer WITH_* prefix for #if conditionals
Currently, we are mixing: #if HAVE_BLAH with #if WITH_BLAH.
Things got way better with Pavel's work on meson, but apparently,
mixing these two lead to confusing and easy to miss bugs (see
31fb929eca for instance). While we were forced to use HAVE_
prefix with autotools, we are free to chose our own prefix with
meson and since WITH_ prefix appears to be more popular let's use
it everywhere.

72d99b094b Avoid unnecessary error messages handling udev events
The udev monitor thread "udevEventHandleThread()" will lag the
actual/real view of devices in sysfs as it serially processes udev
monitor events. So for instance if you were to run the following cmd
to create a new veth pair and rename one of the veth endpoints

you might see the following monitor events and real world that looks like

                                     time
			              |    create v0 sysfs entry
wake udevEventHandleThread            |    create v1 sysfs entry
udev_monitor_receive_device(v1-add)   |    move v0 sysfs to v2
udevHandleOneDevice(v1)               |
udev_monitor_receive_device(v0-add)   |
udevHandleOneDevice(v0)               | <--- error msgs in virNetDevGetLinkInfo()
udev_monitor_receive_device(v2-move)  |      as v0 no longer exists
udevHandleOneDevice(v2)               |
                                     \/

As you can see the changes in sysfs can take place well before we get
to act on the events in the udevEventHandleThread(), so by the time we
get around to processing the v0 add event, the sysfs entry has been
moved to v2.

To work around this we check if the sysfs entry is valid before
attempting to read it and don't bother trying to read link info if
not. This is safe since we will never read sysfs entries earlier than
it existing, ie. if the entry is not there it has either been removed
in the time since we enumerated the device or something bigger is
busted, in either case, no sysfs entry, no link info. In the case
described above we will eventually get the link info as we work
through the queue of monitor events and get to the 'move' event.

423664a6e9 virNetDevSwitchdevFeature: Make failure to get 'family_id' non-fatal
I've just got a new machine and I'm still converging on the
kernel config. Anyway, since I don't have enabled any of SRIO-V
drivers, my kernel doesn't have NET_DEVLINK enabled (i.e.
virNetDevGetFamilyId() returns 0). But this makes nodedev driver
ignore all interfaces, because when enumerating all devices via
udev, the control reaches virNetDevSwitchdevFeature() eventually
and subsequently virNetDevGetFamilyId() which 'fails'. Well, it's
not really a failure - the virNetDevSwitchdevFeature() stub
simply returns 0.

Also, move the call a few lines below, just around the place
where it's needed.

netlink family ID for passed family name (even though it's used
only for getting "devlink" ID). Nevertheless, the function
returns 0 on an error or if no family ID was found. This makes it
harder for a caller to distinguish these two. Change the retval
so that a negative value is returned upon error, zero is no ID
found (but no error encountered) and a positive value is returned
on successful translation.

600462834f Remove all Author(s): lines from source file headers
In many files there are header comments that contain an Author:
statement, supposedly reflecting who originally wrote the code.
In a large collaborative project like libvirt, any non-trivial
file will have been modified by a large number of different
contributors. IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,
omitting people who have made significant contribitions.

In some places Author: lines have been added despite the person
merely being responsible for creating the file by moving existing
code out of another file. IOW, the Author: lines give an incorrect
record of authorship.

With this all in mind, the comments are useless as a means to identify
who to talk to about code in a particular file. Contributors will always
be better off using 'git log' and 'git blame' if they need to  find the
author of a particular bit of code.

This commit thus deletes all Author: comments from the source and adds
a rule to prevent them reappearing.

The Copyright headers are similarly misleading and inaccurate, however,
we cannot delete these as they have legal meaning, despite being largely
inaccurate. In addition only the copyright holder is permitted to change
their respective copyright statement.

e63aa3c664 Fix the build on non-linux platforms after VIR_AUTOPTR related changes
Commits 7b706f33ac and 4acb7887e4 introduced some compound type *Free
wrappers in order to use them with VIR_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_FUNC. However,
since those were not used in the code right away, Clang complained about
unused functions (static ones that are defined by the macro above).
This patch puts the defined functions in use.

7b706f33ac util: netdev: Define cleanup function using VIR_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_FUNC
Using the new VIR_DEFINE_AUTOPTR_FUNC macro defined in
src/util/viralloc.h, define a new wrapper around an existing
cleanup function which will be called when a variable declared
with VIR_AUTOPTR macro goes out of scope. Also, drop the redundant
viralloc.h include, since that has moved from the source module into
the header.

When variables of type virNetDevRxFilterPtr and virNetDevMcastEntryPtr
are declared using VIR_AUTOPTR, the functions virNetDevRxFilterFree
and virNetDevMcastEntryFree, respectively, will be run
automatically on them when they go out of scope.

6c0d0210cb src: Make virStr*cpy*() functions return an int
Currently, the functions return a pointer to the
destination buffer on success or NULL on failure.

Not only does this kind of error handling look quite
alien in the context of libvirt, where most functions
return zero on success and a negative int on failure,
but it's also somewhat pointless because unless there's
been a failure the returned pointer will be the same
one passed in by the user, thus offering no additional
value.

Change the functions so that they return an int
instead.
