This naming is slightly different than other drivers. With the libxl

Arguably we could rename the libxl driver to "xen" since it is the

to users in the URI naming.

The libvirtd daemon provides the traditional libvirt experience where
all the drivers are in a single daemon, and is accessible over both
local UNIX sockets and remote IP sockets.
In the new world we're having a set of per-driver daemons which will
primarily be accessed locally via their own UNIX sockets.
We still, however, need to allow for case of applications which will
connect to libvirt remotely. These remote connections can be done as
TCP/TLS sockets, or by SSH tunnelling to the UNIX socket.
In the later case, the old libvirt.so clients will only know about
the path to the old libvirtd socket /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock,
and not the new driver sockets /var/run/libvirt/virtqemud-sock.
It is also not desirable to expose the main driver specific daemons
over IP directly to minimize their attack service.
Thus the virtproxyd daemon steps into place, to provide TCP/TLS sockets,
and back compat for the old libvirtd UNIX socket path(s). It will then
forward all RPC calls made to the appropriate driver specific daemon.
Essentially it is equivalent to the old libvirtd with absolutely no
drivers registered except for the remote driver (and other stateless
drivers in libvirt.so).
We could have modified libvirtd so none of the drivers are registed
to get the same end result. We could even add a libvirtd.conf parameter
to control whether the drivers are loaded to enable users to switch back
to the old world if we discover bugs in the split-daemon model. Using a
new daemon though has some advantages
- We can make virtproxyd and the virtXXXd per-driver daemons all
have "Conflicts: libvirtd.service" in their systemd unit files.
This will guarantee that libvirtd is never started at the same
time, as this would result in two daemons running the same driver.
Fortunately drivers use locking to protect themselves, but it is
better to avoid starting a daemon we know will conflict.
- It allows us to break CLI compat to remove the --listen parameter.
Both listen_tcp and listen_tls parameters in /etc/libvirtd/virtd.conf
will default to zero. Either TLS or TCP can be enabled exclusively
though virtd.conf without requiring the extra step of adding --listen.
- It allows us to set a strict SELinux policy over virtproxyd. For
back compat the libvirtd policy must continue to allow all drivers
to run. We can't easily give a second policy to libvirtd which
locks it down. By introducing a new virtproxyd we can set a strict
policy for that daemon only.
- It gets rid of the weird naming of having a daemon with "lib" in
its name. Now all normal daemons libvirt ships will have "virt"
as their prefix not "libvirt".
- Distros can more easily choose their upgrade path. They can
ship both sets of daemons in their packages, and choose to
either enable libvirtd, or enable the per-driver daemons and
virtproxyd out of the box. Users can easily override this if
desired by just tweaking which systemd units are active.
After some time we can deprecate use of libvirtd and after some more
time delete it entirely, leaving us in a pretty world filled with
prancing unicorns.
The main downside with introducing a new daemon, and with the
per-driver daemons in general, is figuring out the correct upgrade
path.
The conservative option is to leave libvirtd running if it was
an existing installation. Only use the new daemons & virtproxyd
on completely new installs.
The aggressive option is to disable libvirtd if already running
and activate all the new daemons.

The virt-login-shell binary is a setuid program that takes
no arguments. When invoked it looks at the invoking uid,
resolves it to a username, and finds an LXC guest with the
same name. It then starts the guest and runs the shell in
side the namespaces of the container.
Given this set of tasks the virt-login-shell binary needs
to connect to libvirtd, make various other libvirt API calls.
This is a problem for setuid binaries as various libraries
that libvirt.so links to are not safe. For example, they have
constructor functions which execute an unknown amount of code
that can be influenced by env variables.
For this reason virt-login-shell doesn't use libvirt.so,
but instead links to a custom, cut down, set of source files
sufficient to be a local client only.
This introduces a problem for integrating glib2 into libvirt
though, as once integrated, there would be no way to build
virt-login-shell without an external dependancy on glib2 and
this is definitely not setuid safe.
To resolve this problem, we split the virt-login-shell binary
into two parts. The first part is setuid and does almost
nothing. It simply records the original uid+gid, and then
invokes the virt-login-shell-helper binary. Crucially when
it does this it completes scrubs all environment variables.
It is thus safe for virt-login-shell-helper to link to the
normal libvirt.so. Any things that constructor functions
do cannot be influenced by user control env vars or cli
args.

Introduce a bunch of new public APIs related to backup checkpoints.
Checkpoints are modeled heavily after virDomainSnapshotPtr (both
represent a point in time of the guest), although a snapshot exists
with the intent of rolling back to that state, while a checkpoint
exists to make it possible to create an incremental backup at a later
time. We may have a future hypervisor that can completely manage
checkpoints without libvirt metadata, but the first two planned
hypervisors (qemu and test) both always use libvirt for tracking
metadata relations between checkpoints, so for now, I've deferred
the counterpart of virDomainSnapshotHasMetadata for a separate
API addition at a later date if there is ever a need for it.
Note that until we allow snapshots and checkpoints to exist
simultaneously on the same domain (although the actual prevention of
this will be in a separate patch for the sake of an easier revert down
the road), that it is not possible to branch out to create more than
one checkpoint child to a given parent, although it may become
possible later when we revert to a snapshot that coincides with a
checkpoint. This also means that for now, the decision of which
checkpoint becomes the parent of a newly created one is the only
checkpoint with no child (so while there are APIs for dealing with a
current snapshot, we do not need those for checkpoints). We may end
up exposing a notion of a current checkpoint later, but it's easier to
add stuff when proven needed than to blindly support it now and wish
we hadn't exposed it.
The following map shows the API relations to snapshots, with new APIs
on the right:
Operate on a domain object to create/redefine a child:
virDomainSnapshotCreateXML virDomainCheckpointCreateXML
Operate on a child object for lifetime management:
virDomainSnapshotDelete virDomainCheckpointDelete
virDomainSnapshotFree virDomainCheckpointFree

I've never heard of any other applications having support for using

something exists out there, it is clearly going to be a niche use case
in the virt ecosystem as a whole.

In the past (when both libvirt and firewalld used iptables), if either
libvirt's rules *OR* firewalld's rules accepted a packet, it would
be accepted. This was because libvirt and firewalld rules were
processed during the same kernel hook, and a single ACCEPT result
would terminate the rule traversal and cause the packet to be
accepted.
But now firewalld can use nftables for its backend, while libvirt's
firewall rules are still using iptables; iptables rules are still
processed, but at a different time during packet processing
(i.e. during a different hook) than the firewalld nftables rules. The
result is that a packet must be accepted by *BOTH* the libvirt
iptables rules *AND* the firewalld nftable rules in order to be
accepted.
This causes pain because
1) libvirt always adds rules to permit DNS and DHCP (and sometimes
TFTP) from guests to the host network's bridge interface. But
libvirt's bridges are in firewalld's "default" zone (which is usually
the zone called "public"). The public zone allows ssh, but doesn't
allow DNS, DHCP, or TFTP. So even though libvirt's rules allow the
DHCP and DNS traffic, the firewalld rules (now processed during a
different hook) dont, thus guests connected to libvirt's bridges can't
acquire an IP address from DHCP, nor can they make DNS queries to the
DNS server libvirt has setup on the host. (This could be solved by
modifying the default firewalld zone to allow DNS and DHCP, but that
would open *all* interfaces in the default zone to those services,
which is most likely not what the host's admin wants.)
2) Even though libvirt adds iptables rules to allow forwarded traffic
to pass the iptables hook, firewalld's higher level "rich rules" don't
yet have the ability to configure the acceptance of forwarded traffic
(traffic that is going somewhere beyond the host), so any traffic that
needs to be forwarded from guests to the network beyond the host is
rejected during the nftables hook by the default zone's "default
reject" policy (which rejects all traffic in the zone not specifically
allowed by the rules in the zone, whether that traffic is destined to
be forwarded or locally received by the host).
libvirt can't send "direct" nftables rules (firewalld only supports
direct/passthrough rules for iptables), so we can't solve this problem
by just sending explicit nftables rules instead of explicit iptables
rules (which, if it could be done, would place libvirt's rules in the
same hook as firewalld's native rules, and thus eliminate the need for
packets to be accepted by both libvirt's and firewalld's own rules).
However, we can take advantage of a quirk in firewalld zones that have
a default policy of "accept" (meaning any packet that doesn't match a
specific rule in the zone will be *accepted*) - this default accept will
also accept forwarded traffic (not just traffic destined for the host).
Of course we don't want to modify firewalld's default zone in that
way, because that would affect the filtering of traffic coming into
the host from other interfaces using that zone. Instead, we will
create a new zone called "libvirt". The libvirt zone will have a
default policy of accept so that forwarded traffic can pass and list
specific services that will be allowed into the host from guests (DNS,
DHCP, SSH, and TFTP).
But the same default accept policy that fixes forwarded traffic also
causes *all* traffic from guest to host to be accepted. To close this
new hole, the libvirt zone can take advantage of a new feature in
firewalld (currently slated for firewalld-0.7.0) - priorities for rich
rules - to add a low priority rule that rejects all local traffic (but
leaves alone all forwarded traffic).
So, our new zone will start with a list of services that are allowed
(dhcp, dns, tftp, and ssh to start, but configurable via any firewalld
management application, or direct editing of the zone file in
/etc/firewalld/zones/libvirt.xml), followed by a low priority
<reject/> rule (to reject all other traffic from guest to host), and
finally with a default policy of accept (to allow forwarded traffic).
This patch only creates the zonefile for the new zone, and implements
a configure.ac option to selectively enable/disable installation of
the new zone. A separate patch contains the necessary code to actually
place bridge interfaces in the libvirt zone.
Why do we need a configure option to disable installation of the new
libvirt zone? It uses a new firewalld attribute that sets the priority
of a rich rule; this feature first appears in firewalld-0.7.0 (unless
it has been backported to am earlier firewalld by a downstream
maintainer). If the file were installed on a system with firewalld
that didn't support rule priorities, firewalld would log an error
every time it restarted, causing confusion and lots of extra bug
reports.
So we add two new configure.ac switches to avoid polluting the system
logs with this error on systems that don't support rule priorities -
"--with-firewalld-zone" and "--without-firewalld-zone". A package
builder can use these to include/exclude the libvirt zone file in the
installation. If firewalld is enabled (--with-firewalld), the default
is --with-firewalld-zone, but it can be disabled during configure
(using --without-firewalld-zone). Targets that are using a firewalld
version too old to support the rule priority setting in the libvirt
zone file can simply add --without-firewalld-zone to their configure
commandline.
These switches only affect whether or not the libvirt zone file is
*installed* in /usr/lib/firewalld/zones, but have no effect on whether
or not libvirt looks for a zone called libvirt and tries to use it.
NB: firewalld zones can only be added to the permanent config of
firewalld, and won't be loaded/enabled until firewalld is restarted,
so at package install/upgrade time we have to restart firewalld. For
rpm-based distros, this is done in the libvirt.spec file by calling
the %firewalld_restart rpm macro, which is a part of the
firewalld-filesystem package. (For distros that don't use rpm
packages, the command "firewalld-cmd --reload" will have the same
effect).

quite some time now. Since nobody even reported any issue with it
let us drop it.

In accordance with our platform support policy, now that
Fedora 29 is out we no longer support building on Fedora 27.
This allows us to remove a few version checks.

Most distributions we build RPMs on don't ship a
recent enough version of libiscsi, so we can't enable
the driver unconditionally. Add an explicit dependency
on the runtime package while at it.
