We already allow users to provide TFTP root path in network XML
and not specify any DHCP. This makes sense, because dnsmasq is
not only DHCP server but also TFTP server and users might have
a DHCP server configured on their own, outside of libvirt's
control and want just the TFTP part.
By moving TFTP config generator out of DHCP generator and calling
it for every IPv4 range, users can finally enable just TFTP.

dnsmasq documentation says that the *IPv4* prefix/network
address/broadcast address sent to dhcp clients will be automatically
determined by dnsmasq by looking at the interface it's listening on,
so the original libvirt code did not add a netmask to the dnsmasq
commandline (or later, the dnsmasq conf file).
For *IPv6* however, dnsmasq apparently cannot automatically determine
the prefix (functionally the same as a netmask), and it must be
explicitly provided in the conf file (as a part of the dhcp-range
option). So many years after IPv4 DHCP support had been added, when
IPv6 dhcp support was added the prefix was included at the end of the
dhcp-range setting, but only for IPv6.
A user had reported a bug on a host where one of the interfaces was a
superset of the libvirt network where dhcp is needed (e.g., the host's
ethernet is 10.0.0.20/8, and the libvirt network is 10.10.0.1/24). For
some reason dnsmasq was supplying the netmask for the /8 network to
clients requesting an address on the /24 interface.
This seems like a bug in dnsmasq, but even if/when it gets fixed
there, it looks like there is no harm in just always adding the
netmask to all IPv4 dhcp-range options similar to how prefix is added
to all IPv6 dhcp-range options.

It was pointed out here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1331796#c4
that we shouldn't be adding a "no-resolv" to the dnsmasq.conf file for
a network if there isn't any <forwarder> element that specifies an IP
address but no qualifying domain. If there is such an element, it will
handle all DNS requests that weren't otherwise handled by one of the
forwarder entries with a matching domain attribute. If not, then DNS
requests that don't match the domain of any <forwarder> would not be
resolved if we added no-resolv.
So, only add "no-resolv" when there is at least one <forwarder>
element that specifies an IP address but no qualifying domain.
Similarly to localOnly DNS domain, localPtr attribute can be used to
tell the DNS server not to forward reverse lookups for unknown IPs which
belong to the virtual network.

The dnsmasq man page recommends that dhcp-authoritative "should be
set when dnsmasq is definitely the only DHCP server on a network".
This is the case for libvirt-managed virtual networks.
The effect of this is that VMs that fail to renew their DHCP lease
in time (e.g. if the VM or host is suspended) will be able to
re-acquire the lease even if it's expired, unless the IP address has
been taken by some other host. This avoids various annoyances caused
by changing VM IP addresses.
For some unknown reason the original implementation of the <forwarder>
element only took advantage of part of the functionality in the
dnsmasq feature it exposes - it allowed specifying the ip address of a
DNS server which *all* DNS requests would be forwarded to, like this:
<forwarder addr='192.168.123.25'/>
This is a frontend for dnsmasq's "server" option, which also allows
you to specify a domain that must be matched in order for a request to
be forwarded to a particular server. This patch adds support for
specifying the domain. For example:
<forwarder domain='example.com' addr='192.168.1.1'/>
<forwarder domain='www.example.com'/>
<forwarder domain='travesty.org' addr='10.0.0.1'/>
would forward requests for bob.example.com, ftp.example.com and
joe.corp.example.com all to the DNS server at 192.168.1.1, but would
forward requests for travesty.org and www.travesty.org to
10.0.0.1. And due to the second line, requests for www.example.com,
and odd.www.example.com would be resolved by the libvirt network's own
DNS server (i.e. thery wouldn't be immediately forwarded) even though
they also match 'example.com' - the match is given to the entry with
the longest matching domain. DNS requests not matching any of the
entries would be resolved by the libvirt network's own DNS server.

If you define a libvirt virtual network with one or more IP addresses,
it starts up an instance of dnsmasq. It's always been possible to
avoid dnsmasq's dhcp server (simply don't include a <dhcp> element),
but until now it wasn't possible to avoid having the DNS server
listening; even if the network has no <dns> element, it is started
using default settings.
This patch adds a new attribute to <dns>: enable='yes|no'. For
backward compatibility, it defaults to 'yes', but if you don't want a
DNS server created for the network, you can simply add:
<dns enable='no'/>
to the network configuration, and next time the network is started
there will be no dns server created (if there is dhcp configuration,
dnsmasq will be started with "port=0" which disables the DNS server;
if there is no dhcp configuration, dnsmasq won't be started at all).
The new forward mode 'open' is just like mode='route', except that no
firewall rules are added to assure that any traffic does or doesn't
pass. It is assumed that either they aren't necessary, or they will be
setup outside the scope of libvirt.

According to the dnsmasq manpage, the netmask for IPv4 address ranges
will be auto-deteremined from the interface dnsmasq is listening on,
but it can't do this for IPv6 for some reason - it instead assumes a
network prefix of 64 for all IPv6 address ranges. If this is
incorrect, dnsmasq will refuse to give out an address to clients,
instead logging this message:
dnsmasq-dhcp[2380]: no address range available for DHCPv6 request via virbr0
The solution is for libvirt to add ",$prefix" to all IPv6 dhcp-range
arguments when building the dnsmasq.conf file.

This adds a new "localOnly" attribute on the domain element of the
network xml. With this set to "yes", DNS requests under that domain
will only be resolved by libvirt's dnsmasq, never forwarded upstream.
This was how it worked before commit f69a6b987d, and I found that
functionality useful. For example, I have my host's NetworkManager
dnsmasq configured to forward that domain to libvirt's dnsmasq, so I can
easily resolve guest names from outside. But if libvirt's dnsmasq
doesn't know a name and forwards it to the host, I'd get an endless
forwarding loop. Now I can set localOnly="yes" to prevent the loop.

A patch submitted by Steven Malin last week pointed out a problem with
libvirt's DNS SRV record configuration:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-March/msg00536.html
When searching for that message later, I found another series that had
been posted by Guannan Ren back in 2012 that somehow slipped between
the cracks:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-July/msg00236.html
That patch was very much out of date, but also pointed out some real
problems.
This patch fixes all the noted problems by refactoring
virNetworkDNSSrvDefParseXML() and networkDnsmasqConfContents(), then
verifies those fixes by added several new records to the test case.
Problems fixed:
* both service and protocol now have an underscore ("_") prepended on
the commandline, as required by RFC2782.
<srv service='sip' protocol='udp' domain='example.com'
target='tests.example.com' port='5060' priority='10'
weight='150'/>
before: srv-host=sip.udp.example.com,tests.example.com,5060,10,150
after: srv-host=_sip._udp.example.com,tests.example.com,5060,10,150
* if "domain" wasn't specified in the <srv> element, the extra
trailing "." will no longer be added to the dnsmasq commandline.
<srv service='sip' protocol='udp' target='tests.example.com'
port='5060' priority='10' weight='150'/>
before: srv-host=sip.udp.,tests.example.com,5060,10,150
after: srv-host=_sip._udp,tests.example.com,5060,10,150
* when optional attributes aren't specified, the separating comma is
also now not placed on the dnsmasq commandline. If optional
attributes in the middle of the line are not specified, they are
replaced with a default value in the commandline (1 for port, 0 for
priority and weight).
<srv service='sip' protocol='udp' target='tests.example.com'
port='5060'/>
before: srv-host=sip.udp.,tests.example.com,5060,,
after: srv-host=_sip._udp,tests.example.com,5060
(actually the would have generated an error, because "optional"
attributes weren't really optional.)
* The allowed characters for both service and protocol are now limited
to alphanumerics, plus a few special characters that are found in
existing names in /etc/services and /etc/protocols. (One exception
is that both of these files contain names with an embedded ".", but
"." can't be used in these fields of an SRV record because it is
used as a field separator and there is no method to escape a "."
into a field.) (Previously only the strings "tcp" and "udp" were
allowed for protocol, but this restriction has been removed, since
RFC2782 specifically says that it isn't limited to those, and that
anyway it is case insensitive.)
* the "domain" attribute is no longer required in order to recognize
the port, priority, and weight attributes during parsing. Only
"target" is required for this.
* if "target" isn't specified, port, priority, and weight are not
allowed (since they are meaningless - an empty target means "this
service is *not available* for this domain").
* port, priority, and weight are now truly optional, as the comments
originally suggested, but which was not actually true.
The previous patch fixed "forwardPlainNames" so that it really is
doing only what is intended, but left the default to be
"forwardPlainNames='no'". Discussion around the initial version of
that patch led to the decision that the default should instead be
"forwardPlainNames='yes'" (i.e. the original behavior before commit
f3886825). This patch makes that change to the default.
In commit f386825 we began adding the options
--domain-needed
--local=/$mydomain/
to all dnsmasq commandlines with the stated reason of preventing
forwarding of DNS queries for names that weren't fully qualified
domain names ("FQDN", i.e. a name that included some "."s and a domain
name). This was later changed to
domain-needed
local=/$mydomain/
when we moved the options from the dnsmasq commandline to a conf file.
The original patch on the list, and discussion about it, is here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2012-August/msg01594.html
When a domain name isn't specified (mydomain == ""), the addition of
"domain-needed local=//" will prevent forwarding of domain-less
requests to the virtualization host's DNS resolver, but if a domain
*is* specified, the addition of "local=/domain/" will prevent
forwarding of any requests for *qualified* names within that domain
that aren't resolvable by libvirt's dnsmasq itself.
An example of the problems this causes - let's say a network is
defined with:
<domain name='example.com'/>
<dhcp>
..
<host mac='52:54:00:11:22:33' ip='1.2.3.4' name='myguest'/>
</dhcp>
This results in "local=/example.com/" being added to the dnsmasq options.
If a guest requests "myguest" or "myguest.example.com", that will be
resolved by dnsmasq. If the guest asks for "www.example.com", dnsmasq
will not know the answer, but instead of forwarding it to the host, it
will return NOT FOUND to the guest. In most cases that isn't the
behavior an admin is looking for.
A later patch (commit 4f595ba) attempted to remedy this by adding a
"forwardPlainNames" attribute to the <dns> element. The idea was that
if forwardPlainNames='yes' (default is 'no'), we would allow
unresolved names to be forwarded. However, that patch was botched, in
that it only removed the "domain-needed" option when
forwardPlainNames='yes', and left the "local=/mydomain/".
Really we should have been just including the option "--domain-needed
--local=//" (note the lack of domain name) regardless of the
configured domain of the network, so that requests for names without a
domain would be treated as "local to dnsmasq" and not forwarded, but
all others (including those in the network's configured domain) would
be forwarded. We also shouldn't include *either* of those options if
forwardPlainNames='yes'. This patch makes those corrections.
This patch doesn't remedy the fact that default behavior was changed
by the addition of this feature. That will be handled in a subsequent
patch.
Useful to set custom forwarders instead of using the contents of
/etc/resolv.conf. It helps me to setup dnsmasq as local nameserver to
resolve VM domain names from domain 0, when domain option is used.

This resolves the issue that prompted the filing of
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=928638
(although the request there is for something much larger and more
general than this patch).
commit f3868259ca disabled the
forwarding to upstream DNS servers of unresolved DNS requests for
names that had no domain, but were just simple host names (no "."
character anywhere in the name). While this behavior is frowned upon
by DNS root servers (that's why it was changed in libvirt), it is
convenient in some cases, and since dnsmasq can be configured to allow
it, it must not be strictly forbidden.
This patch restores the old behavior, but since it is usually
undesirable, restoring it requires specification of a new option in
the network config. Adding the attribute "forwardPlainNames='yes'" to
the <dns> elemnt does the trick - when that attribute is added to a
network config, any simple hostnames that can't be resolved by the
network's dnsmasq instance will be forwarded to the DNS servers listed
in the host's /etc/resolv.conf for an attempt at resolution (just as
any FQDN would be forwarded).
When that attribute *isn't* specified, unresolved simple names will
*not* be forwarded to the upstream DNS server - this is the default
behavior.
This reverts commit 383ebc4694.
We decided the xml for this feature needed more thought to make sure
we are doing it the best way, in particular wrt option values that
have multiple items.
Originally, only a host name was used to associate a
DHCPv6 request with a specific IPv6 address. Further testing
demonstrates that this is an unreliable method and, instead,
a client-id or DUID needs to be used. According to DHCPv6
standards, this id can be a duid-LLT, duid-LL, or duid-UUID
even though dnsmasq will accept almost any text string.
Although validity checking of a specified string makes sure it is
hexadecimal notation with bytes separated by colons, there is no
rigorous check to make sure it meets the standard.

Stump in the mailing list discussion at

Any such defined option will result in a dhcp-option=<number>,"<value>"

Currently, DHCP options can be specified by number only and there is
no whitelisting or blacklisting of option numbers, which should

This patch resolves the problem reported in:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=886663
The source of the problem was the fix for CVE 2011-3411:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=833033
which was originally committed upstream in commit
753ff83a50. That commit improperly
removed the "--except-interface lo" from dnsmasq commandlines when
--bind-dynamic was used (based on comments in the latter bug).
It turns out that the problem reported in the CVE could be eliminated
without removing "--except-interface lo", and removing it actually
caused each instance of dnsmasq to listen on localhost on port 53,
which created a new problem:
If another instance of dnsmasq using "bind-interfaces" (instead of
"bind-dynamic") had already been started (or if another instance
started later used "bind-dynamic"), this wouldn't have any immediately
visible ill effects, but if you tried to start another dnsmasq
instance using "bind-interfaces" *after* starting any libvirt
networks, the new dnsmasq would fail to start, because there was
already another process listening on port 53.
(Subsequent to the CVE fix, another patch changed the network driver
to put dnsmasq options in a conf file rather than directly on the
dnsmasq commandline, but preserved the same options.)
This patch changes the network driver to *always* add
"except-interface=lo" to dnsmasq conf files, regardless of whether we use
bind-dynamic or bind-interfaces. This way no libvirt dnsmasq instances
are listening on localhost (and the CVE is still fixed).
The actual code change is miniscule, but must be propogated through all
of the test files as well.
I noticed that /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/*.conf used the wrong word;
it was intended to match the wording in src/util/xml.c.
* src/network/bridge_driver.c (networkDnsmasqConfContents): Fix typo.
* tests/networkxml2confdata/*.conf: Update accordingly.
This patch changes how parameters are passed to dnsmasq. Instead of
being on the command line, the parameters are put into a file (one
parameter per line) and a commandline --conf-file= specifies the
location of the file. The file is located in the same directory as
the leases file.
Putting the dnsmasq parameters into a configuration file
allows them to be examined and more easily understood than
examining the command lines displayed by "ps ax". This is
especially true when a number of networks have been started.
When the use of dnsmasq was originally done, the required command line
was simple, but it has gotten more complicated over time and will
likely become even more complicated in the future.
Note: The test conf files have all been renamed .conf instead of
.argv, and tests/networkxml2xmlargvdata was moved to
tests/networkxml2xmlconfdata.
