which frees all allocated memory but doesn't set the passed pointer to
NULL. Therefore, we must do it ourselves. This is causing actual
libvirtd crash: Basically, when doing 'virsh net-edit' the newDef should
be dropped. And the memory is freed, indeed. However, the pointer is
not set to NULL but kept instead. And the next duo of calls 'virsh
net-start' and 'virsh net-destroy' starts the disaster. The latter one
does the same as 'virsh destroy'; it sees that newDef is nonNULL so it
replaces def with newDef (which has been freed already as said a few
lines above). Therefore any subsequent call accessing def will hit the ground.
When libvirt cannot find a suitable CPU model for host CPU (easily
reproducible by running libvirt in a guest), it would not provide CPU
topology in capabilities XML either. Even though CPU topology is known
and can be queried by virNodeGetInfo. With this patch, CPU topology will
always be provided in capabilities XML regardless on the presence of CPU
model.
This should not make a big difference in real world since libvirt-daemon,
which is already required by libvirt-lock-sanlock, requires
libvirt-client and thus libvirt-lock-sanlock gets this dependency
transitively. However, since libvirt-lock-sanlock contains
sanlock_helper binary linked to libvirt.so, we should start requiring
libvirt-client directly.
Hypervisors are starting to support HyperV Enlightenment features that

This patch adds support for the "relaxed" feature that improves timer

future.
Currently we query-spice after the main migration has completed
before moving to next state. Qemu reports this as boolean (not
enclosed within quotes). Therefore it is not correct to use
virJSONValueObjectGetString but virJSONValueObjectGetBoolean instead.
The machine in the last output line of <qemu-binary> -M ?
was always reported as default machine even if this wasn't the
actual default. Trivial fix.

According to our recent changes (clarifications), we should be pinning
qemu's emulator processes using the <vcpu> 'cpuset' attribute in case
there is no <emulatorpin> specified. This however doesn't work
entirely as expected and this patch should resolve all the remaining
issues.
When p2p migration fails early because qemuMigrationIsAllowed or
qemuMigrationIsSafe say migration should be cancelled, we fail to clear
the migration-out async job. As a result of that, further APIs called
for the same domain may fail with Timed out during operation: cannot
acquire state change lock.

Rather than telling the user 'don't do that', let's just give them the

The previous commit was incomplete. We need to also add explicit
Requires for the newer version since RPM's automatic dependencies won't
work with sanlock.
libssh2 unfortunately doesn't support symbol versioning so RPM can't
figure out what version is needed for the currently installed libvirt
package. This patch adds a runtime requirement, so that the correct
version of libssh2 can be installed along with libvirt.
libvirt started using sanlock_killpath to implement on_lockfailure
action. Since sanlock_killpath was introduced in sanlock 2.4, libvirt
fails to build with older sanlock.
Currently there is a restriction that multi-threaded applications
must manually call virInitialize, before threads start using
libvirt, because it is not thread-safe. By switching it to use
a virOnceControl initializer we gain thread safety, and thus
applications no longer need to manually call it. They can rely
on virConnectOpen invoking it for them.

The previously introduced virFile{Lock,Unlock} APIs provide a
way to acquire/release fcntl() locks on individual files. For
unknown reason though, the POSIX spec says that fcntl() locks
are released when *any* file handle referring to the same path
is closed. In the following sequence
threadA: fd1 = open("foo")
threadB: fd2 = open("foo")
threadA: virFileLock(fd1)
threadB: virFileLock(fd2)
threadB: close(fd2)
you'd expect threadA to come out holding a lock on 'foo', and
indeed it does hold a lock for a very short time. Unfortunately
when threadB does close(fd2) this releases the lock associated
with fd1. For the current libvirt use case for virFileLock -
pidfiles - this doesn't matter since the lock is acquired
at startup while single threaded an never released until
exit.
To provide a more generally useful API though, it is necessary
to introduce a slightly higher level abstraction, which is to
be referred to as a "lockspace". This is to be provided by
a virLockSpacePtr object in src/util/virlockspace.{c,h}. The
core idea is that the lockspace keeps track of what files are
already open+locked. This means that when a 2nd thread comes
along and tries to acquire a lock, it doesn't end up opening
and closing a new FD. The lockspace just checks the current
list of held locks and immediately returns VIR_ERR_RESOURCE_BUSY.
NB, the API as it stands is designed on the basis that the
files being locked are not being otherwise opened and used
by the application code. One approach to using this API is to
acquire locks based on a hash of the filepath.
eg to lock /var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img the application
might do
virLockSpacePtr lockspace = virLockSpaceNew("/var/lib/libvirt/imagelocks");
lockname = md5sum("/var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img");
virLockSpaceAcquireLock(lockspace, lockname);
NB, in this example, the caller should ensure that the path
is canonicalized before calculating the checksum.
It is also possible to do locks directly on resources by
using a NULL lockspace directory and then using the file
path as the lock name eg
virLockSpacePtr lockspace = virLockSpaceNew(NULL);
virLockSpaceAcquireLock(lockspace, "/var/lib/libvirt/images/foo.img");
This is only safe to do though if no other part of the process
will be opening the files. This will be the case when this
code is used inside the soon-to-be-reposted virlockd daemon

* src/interface/interface_backend_udev.c: Likewise.
There was a crash possible when both <boot dev... and <boot
order... were specified due to virDomainDefParseBootXML() erroring out
before setting *tmp (which was free'd in cleanup). As a fix, I
created this cleanup that uses one pointer for all the temporary
stored XPath strings and values, plus this pointer is correctly
initialized to NULL.

When using macvtap, a character device gets first created by
kernel with name /dev/tapN, its selinux context is:
system_u:object_r:device_t:s0
Shortly, when udev gets notification when new file is created
in /dev, it will then jump in and relabel this file back to the
expected default context:
system_u:object_r:tun_tap_device_t:s0
There is a time gap happened.
Sometimes, it will have migration failed, AVC error message:
type=AVC msg=audit(1349858424.233:42507): avc: denied { read write } for

system_u:object_r:tun_tap_device_t:MCS(MCS from seclabel->label)
This patch adds support for SUSPEND_DISK event; both lifecycle and
separated. The support is added for QEMU, machines are changed to
PMSUSPENDED, but as QEMU sends SHUTDOWN afterwards, the state changes
to shut-off. This and much more needs to be done in order for libvirt
to work with transient devices, wake-ups etc. This patch is not
aiming for that functionality.
Commit e8fd8757c8 changed 'const char *'
category to virLogSource enum. This changes it in virLogEatParams as
well, thus fixing the build with --disable-debug.

Hopefully moving the enum declarations is less ugly than using int.
Upstream kernel introduced new sysfs knob "merge_across_nodes" to
specify if pages from different numa nodes can be merged. When set
to 0, only pages which physically reside in the memory area of
same NUMA node can be merged. When set to 1, pages from all nodes
can be merged.
This patch supports the tuning by adding new param field
"shm_merge_across_nodes".
This patch resolves:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=805071
to the extent that it can be resolved with current qemu functionality.
It attempts to detect as many situations as possible when the simple
operation of disconnecting an existing tap device from one bridge and
attaching it to another will satisfy the change requested in
virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags() for a network device. Before this patch,
that situation could only be detected if the pre-change interface
*and* the post-change interface definition were both "type='bridge'".
After this patch, it can also be detected if the before or after
interfaces are any combination of type='bridge' and type='network'
(the networks can be <forward mode='nat|route|bridge'>, as long as
they use a Linux host bridge and not macvtap connections).
This extra effort is especially useful since the recent discovery that
a netdev_del+netdev_add combo (to reconnect the network device with
completely different hostside configuration) doesn't work properly
with current qemu (1.2) unless it is accompanied by the matching
device_del+device_add - see this mailing list message for details:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-10/msg02355.html
(A slight modification of the patch referenced there has been prepared
to apply on top of this patch, but won't be pushed until qemu can be
made to work with it.)
* qemuDomainChangeNet needs access to the virDomainDeviceDef that
holds the new netdef (so that it can clear out the virDomainDeviceDef
if it ends up using the NetDef to replace the original), so the
virDomainNetDefPtr arg is replaced with a virDomainDeviceDefPtr.
* qemuDomainChangeNet previously checked for *some* changes to the
interface config, but this check was by no means complete. It was also
a bit disorganized.
This refactoring of the code is (I believe) complete in its check of
all NetDef attributes that might be changed, and either returns a
failure (for changes that are simply impossible), or sets one of three
flags:
needLinkStateChange - if the device link state needs to go up/down
needBridgeChange - if everything else is the same, but it needs
to be connected to a difference linux host
bridge
needReconnect - if the entire host side of the device needs
to be torn down and reconstructed (currently
non-working, as mentioned above)
Note that this function will refuse to make any change that requires
the *guest* side of the device to be detached (e.g. changing the PCI
address or mac address). Those would be disruptive enough to the guest
that it's reasonable to require an explicit detach/attach sequence
from the management application.
* As mentioned above, qemuDomainChangeNet also does its best to
understand when a simple change in attached bridge for the existing
tap device will work vs. the need to completely tear down/reconstruct
the host side of the device (including tap device).
This patch *does not* implement the "reconnect" code anyway - there is
a placeholder that turns that into an error. Rather, the purpose of
this patch is to replicate existing behavior with code that is ready
to have that functionality plugged in in a later patch.
* The expanded uses for qemuDomainChangeNetBridge meant that it needed
to be enhanced as well - it no longer replaces the original brname
string in olddev with the new brname; instead, it relies on the
caller to replace the *entire* olddev with newdev (since we've gone
to great lengths to assure they are functionally identical other
than the name of the bridge, this is now not only safe, but more
correct). Additionally, qemuDomainNetChangeBridge can now set the
bridge for type='network' interfaces as well as plain type='bridge'
interfaces. (Note that I had to make this change simultaneous to the
reorganization of qemuDomainChangeNet because the two are too
closely intertwined to separate).
This function really should have been taking virDevicePCIAddress*
instead of the inefficient virDevicePCIAddress (results in copying two
entire structs onto the stack rather than just two pointers), and
returning a bool true/false (not matching is not necessarily a
"failure", as a -1 return would imply, and also using "if
(!virDevicePCIAddressEqual(x, y))" to mean "if x == y" is just a bit
counterintuitive).
