The "Default-Stop" field in LSB comment in libvirt-guests is missing and should
be added. I also suggests to add runlevel 2 to the "Default-Start" field.

When libvirt-guests is being stopped, I get the following message:

Remove the optional option "group", as cmdHelp should accepts
only one option ("virsh help" supports both command and command
group now, and user rarely uses the options, so it doesn't matter
much for it being longer, :-)
* tools/virsh.c
* tools/virsh.c (find-storage-pool-sources-as and find-storage-pool-sources
should't be in command group "Domain Management", move them to group
"Storage Pool".
* tools/virsh.c (virsh shouldn't use 'phy' as the disk driver if
user doesn't specify "--driver", it causes bugs, as not all of
hypervisor driver supports 'phy', and actually hypervisor should
known the correct default disk driver and subdriver, so remove it)
As virsh help supports both command and command group now,
update "cmdHelp" to print consite help, (this patch is
increment of "7829052757953023b0826e0293ffe18ed4ab89e9").
And also remove redundant empty line in "vshUsage".
* tools/virsh.c
The output was previously:
-c | --connect <uri> hypervisor connection URI
-r | --readonly connect readonly
-d | --debug <num> debug level [0-5]
-h | --help this help
-q | --quiet quiet mode
-t | --timing print timing information
-l | --log <file> output logging to file
-v | --version[=short] program version
-V | --version=long version and full options
(note the blank line between the --version types)
This patch removes the extra blank line.
Change the virsh help out. The new output of "virsh help" and
"virsh --help" will be like:
Secret (help keyword 'secret'):
secret-define define or modify a secret from an XML file
secret-dumpxml secret attributes in XML
secret-set-value set a secret value
secret-get-value Output a secret value
secret-undefine undefine a secret
secret-list list secrets
Snapshot (help keyword 'snapshot'):
snapshot-create Create a snapshot
snapshot-current Get the current snapshot
snapshot-delete Delete a domain snapshot
snapshot-dumpxml Dump XML for a domain snapshot
snapshot-list List snapshots for a domain
snapshot-revert Revert a domain to a snapshot
Also support output help information of specified command group, e.g.
% ./tools/virsh help "Network Filter"
Network Filter (help keyword 'filter'):
nwfilter-define define or update a network filter from an XML file
nwfilter-undefine undefine a network filter
nwfilter-dumpxml network filter information in XML
nwfilter-list list network filters
nwfilter-edit edit XML configuration for a network filter
Each group has a help keyword, e.g.
% ./tools/virsh help filter
Network Filter (help keyword 'filter'):
nwfilter-define define or update a network filter from an XML file
nwfilter-undefine undefine a network filter
nwfilter-dumpxml network filter information in XML
nwfilter-list list network filters
nwfilter-edit edit XML configuration for a network filter
* tools/virsh.c:
- introduce new struct "vshCmdGrp" and macros to define the groups.
- split previous array "commands" into small arrays which are orgnized
by group
- changed some functions, e.g. "vshCmdDefSearch"
- Added new functions, e.g. "vshCmdGrpSearch"
- commands of each group are in "alphabetical order" now.
- command groups are in "alphabetical order" now.
- the commands are categorized with reference of

The "find-storage-pool-sources-as" command takes two arguments,
a hostname and a port number. For some reason the code would
also then look for a port number appended to the hostname
string by searching for ':'. This totally breaks if the user
gives an IPv6 address, and is redundant, since you can already
provide a port as a separate argument
* tools/virsh.c: Remove bogus port number handling code
The code generating XML for storage pool source discovery is
hardcoded to only allow a hostname and optional port number.
Refactor this code to make it easier to add support for extra
parameters.
* tools/virsh.c: Refactor XML generator
The virt-mem program is no longer shipped, but was still being

This patch removes it from those man pages, addressing
BZ# 639603:

Last time I ran ./autobuild.sh was on F13; and upgrading to F14
exposed these leftovers due to a newer gcov than what was in the stale
files, in the form of spurious messages that break 'make check':
+profiling:/home/remote/eblake/libvirt-tmp/tools/virsh-console.gcda:Version mismatch - expected 405R got 404R
and concluding with a bug in the autobuild.sh script itself:
./autobuild.sh: line 44: test: =: unary operator expected
* autobuild.sh: avoid syntax error on failed test
* tools/Makefile.am (CLEANFILES): Clean coverage files.
Per the gettext developer:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2010-10/msg00019.htmlhttp://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-utils/2010-10/msg00021.html
gettext() doesn't work correctly on all platforms unless you have
called setlocale(). Furthermore, gnulib's gettext.h has provisions
for setting up a default locale, which is the preferred method for
libraries to use gettext without having to call textdomain() and
override the main program's default domain (virInitialize already
calls bindtextdomain(), but this is insufficient without the
setlocale() added in this patch; and a redundant bindtextdomain()
in this patch doesn't hurt, but serves as a good example for other
packages that need to bind a second translation domain).
This patch is needed to silence a new gnulib 'make syntax-check'
rule in the next patch.

I am replacing the last instances of close() I found with VIR_CLOSE() / VIR_FORCE_CLOSE respectively.
The first part patches virsh, which I missed out on previously.
The 2nd patch I had left out intentionally to look at it more carefully:
The 'closed' variable could be easily removed since it wasn't used anywhere else. The possible race condition that could result from the filedescriptor being closed and not set to -1 (and possibly let us write into 'something' totally different if the fd was allocated by another thread) seems to be prevented by the qemuMonitorLock() already placed around the code that reads from or writes to the fd. So the change of this code as shown in the patch should not have any side-effects.
The event watches need to be removed before the event loop
terminates, otherwise they cause a dangling reference to
be held on the virStreamPtr, which in turns holds a reference
on virConnectPtr, which in turn causes errors like
"Failed to disconnect from the hypervisor"
* tools/console.c: Remove watches before event loop quits
* tools/virsh.c: Print out dangling reference count
This re-writes the 'virsh console' command so that it uses
the new streams API. This lets it run remotely and/or as a
non-root user. This requires that virsh be linked against
the simple event loop from libvirtd in daemon/event.c
As an added bonus, it can now connect to any console device,
not just the first one.
* tools/Makefile.am: Link to event.c
* tools/console.c, tools/console.h: Rewrite to use the
virDomainOpenConsole() APIs with streams
* tools/virsh.c: Support choosing the console name
via --devname $NAME
* tools/virsh.c (vshParseArgv): Use NULL instead of 0 for pointer,
and symbolic names for has_arg. Give --version an optional arg.
(vshUsage): Document this.
* tools/virsh.pod: Likewise.
Using automated replacement with sed and editing I have now replaced all
occurrences of close() with VIR_(FORCE_)CLOSE() except for one, of
course. Some replacements were straight forward, others I needed to pay
attention. I hope I payed attention in all the right places... Please
have a look. This should have at least solved one more double-close
error.
To ease debugging this trivial patch allows to find what was compiled
in in the local version of libvirt, this doesn't work for remote access
but that's probably sufficient. With the patch I get on my machine:
paphio:~/libvirt/tools -> ./virsh -V

Old virsh command parsing mashes all the args back into a string and
miss the quotes, this patches fix it. It is also needed for introducing
qemu-monitor-command which is very useful.
This patches uses the new vshCommandParser abstraction and adds
vshCommandArgvParse() for arguments vector, so we don't need
to mash arguments vector into a command sting.
And the usage was changed:
old:
virsh [options] [commands]
new:
virsh [options]... [<command_string>]
virsh [options]... <command> [args...]
So we still support commands like:
"define D.xml; dumpxml D" was parsed as a commands-string.
and support commands like:
we will not mash them into a string, we use new argv parser for it.
But we don't support the command like:
"define D.xml; dumpxml" was parsed as a command-name, but we have no such command-name.

in old code the following commands are equivalent:
virsh # dumpxml --update-cpu=vm1
virsh # dumpxml --update-cpu vm1
because the old code split the option argument into 2 parts:
--update-cpu=vm1 is split into update-cpu and vm1,
and update-cpu is a boolean option, so the parser takes vm1 as another
argument, very strange.
after this patch applied, the first one will become illegal.
To achieve this, we don't parse/check options when parsing command sting,
but check options when parsing a command argument. And the argument is
not split when parsing command sting.

The command helps to control the memory/swap parameters for the system, for
eg. hard_limit (max memory the vm can use), soft_limit (limit during memory
contention), swap_hard_limit(max swap the vm can use)
libvirt-guests init script should be started as late as possible during
host startup and stopped as early as possible during host shutdown to
make sure required services are already/still up and running at the time
libvirt-guests runs.
cmdAttachInterface and cmdAttachDisk still used vshRealloc and sprintf
for generating XML, which is hardly maintainable. Let's get rid of this
old code.
Unless --driver tap|file option was given to attach-disk, virsh would
generate <disk type='block'> XML which might be fine for Xen but not for
other hypervisors. This patch introduces a new option --sourcetype which
can be used to explicitly set the type of disk source. The option
accepts either "file" or "block" types.
Virsh shouldn't check for driver support but rather let the backend handled this.
After removing the check, I can successfully attach file-based images to a qemu
VM with attach-disk.
% virsh attach-disk vm2 /images/test02.img vdc --driver qemu --type disk --subdriver raw
Disk attached successfully
This command generates the following XML:
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source dev='/images/test02.img'/>
<target dev='vdc' bus='virtio'/>
<alias name='virtio-disk2'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' function='0x0'/>
</disk>

Since libvirt-guests init script and its configuration do not require
libvirtd to be running/installed, it was a bad idea to put them into
daemon directory. libvirt.spec even includes these files in
libvirt-client subpackage, which may result in build failure for
client-only builds when the whole daemon directory is just skipped.
it was using atoi direct without checking leading to confusion
in case of flag error for example with -c
* tools/virsh.c: vshParseArgv() use virStrToLong_i and remove the
unchecked atoi used to parse teh parameter
After playing around with virsh setmaxmem for a bit,
I ran into some surprising behavior; if a hypervisor does
not support the virDomainSetMaxMemory() API, but the value
specified for setmaxmem is less than the current amount
of memory in the domain, the domain would be ballooned
down *before* an error was reported.
To make this more consistent, run virDomainSetMaxMemory()
before trying to shrink; that way, if an error is thrown,
no changes to the running domain are made.

The virsh option error reporting was not being used
consistently; some commands would spit out errors on
missing required options while others would just silently fail.
However, vshCommandOptString knows which ones are required
and which ones aren't, so make it spit out an error where
appropriate. The rest of the patch is just cleaning up
the uses of vshCommandOptString to deal with the new error
reporting.

This patch removes the individual author names from the libvirtd and virsh
man pages, instead referring to the main AUTHORS file distributed with
libvirt. This approach is needed, as we can't guarantee unicode support
across all versions of pod2man used with libvirt.
Additionally, this patch includes the libvirtd man page in the spec file
used with "make rpm". Without this patch "make rpm" is broken.
When printing out size_t, we need to use %zu to make sure it
will continue to compile on both 32-bit and 64-bit platforms.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=609044 complained
that 'virsh help pool-create-as' didn't document the shortcut
that you can do 'virsh pool-create-as $name $type --target $target'
rather than having to supply the four optional source- arguments
in order to fill out the necessary positional arguments.
This one-liner changes the help output to hopefully make this more obvious:
NAME
pool-create-as - create a pool from a set of args
SYNOPSIS
pool-create-as <name> [--print-xml] <type> [<source-host>] [<source-path>] [<source-dev>] [<source-name>] [<target>] [--source-format <string>]
DESCRIPTION
Create a pool.
OPTIONS
[--name] <string> name of the pool
--print-xml print XML document, but don't define/create
[--type] <string> type of the pool
[--source-host] <string> source-host for underlying storage
[--source-path] <string> source path for underlying storage
[--source-dev] <string> source device for underlying storage
[--source-name] <string> source name for underlying storage
[--target] <string> target for underlying storage
--source-format <string> format for underlying storage
* tools/virsh.c (vshCmddefHelp): Make it more obvious that data
arguments may, but not must, be specified by option leaders.
