The virtualization driver has two connections to the virtlogd daemon,
one pipe fd for writing to the log file, and one socket fd for making
RPC calls. The typical sequence is to write some data to the pipe fd and
then make an RPC call to determine the current log file offset.
Unfortunately these two operations are not guaranteed to be handling in
order by virtlogd. The event loop for virtlogd may identify an incoming
event on both the pipe fd and socket fd in the same iteration of the
event loop. It is then entirely possible that it will process the socket
fd RPC call before reading the pending log data from the pipe fd.
As a result the virtualization driver will get an outdated log file
offset reported back.
This can be seen with the QEMU driver where, when a guest fails to
start, it will randomly include too much data in the error message it
has fetched from the log file.
The solution is to ensure we have drained all pending data from the pipe
fd before reporting the log file offset. The pipe fd is always in
blocking mode, so cares needs to be taken to avoid blocking. When
draining this is taken care of by using poll(). The extra complication
is that they might already be an event loop dispatch pending on the pipe
fd. If we have just drained the pipe this pending event will be invalid
so must be discarded.

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 IOW, the Author: comments are quickly out of date,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.

Rather than have virJSONValueArraySize return a -1 when the input
is not an array and then splat an error message, let's check for
an array before calling and then change the return to be a size_t
instead of ssize_t.
That means using the helper virJSONValueIsArray as well as using a
more generic error message such as "Malformed <something> array".
In some cases we can remove stack variables and when we cannot,
those variables should be size_t not ssize_t. Alter a few references
of if (!value) to be if (value == 0) instead as well.
Some callers can already assume an array is being worked on based

Remove global log buffer feature entirely
A earlier commit changed the global log buffer so that it only
records messages that are explicitly requested via the log
filters setting. This removes the performance burden, and
improves the signal/noise ratio for messages in the global
buffer. At the same time though, it is somewhat pointless, since
all the recorded log messages are already going to be sent to an
explicit log output like syslog, stderr or the journal. The
global log buffer is thus just duplicating this data on stderr
upon crash.

completely ignored hereafter.

Currently both virtlogd and virtlockd use a single worker thread for
dispatching RPC messages. Even this is overkill and their RPC message
handling callbacks all run in short, finite time and so blocking the
main loop is not an issue like you'd see in libvirtd with long running
QEMU commands.
By setting max_workers==0, we can turn off the worker thread and run
these daemons single threaded. This in turn fixes a serious problem in
the virtlockd daemon whereby it loses all fcntl() locks at re-exec due
to multiple threads existing. fcntl() locks only get preserved if the
process is single threaded at time of exec().

Commit 94c465d0 refactored the logging setup phase but introduced an

defined and the default must be used. The problem is that the default
output was determined too early, thus ignoring the potential '--verbose'
option taking effect. This patch postpones the creation of the default
output to the very last moment when nothing else can change. Since the
default output is only created during the init phase, it's safe to leave
the pointer as NULL for a while, but it will be set eventually, thus not
affecting runtime.

The log and lock protocol don't have an extra handshake to close the
connection. Instead they just close the socket. Unfortunately that
resulted into a lot of spurious garbage logged to the system log files:
2017-03-17 14:00:09.730+0000: 4714: error : virNetSocketReadWire:1800 : End of file while reading data: Input/output error
or in the journal as:
Mar 13 16:19:33 xxxx virtlogd[32360]: End of file while reading data: Input/output error
Use the new facility in the netserverclient to suppress the IO error
report from the virNetSocket layer.
Linux still defaults to a 1024 open file handle limit. This causes
scalability problems for libvirtd / virtlockd / virtlogd on large
hosts which might want > 1024 guest to be running. In fact if each
guest needs > 1 FD, we can't even get to 500 guests. This is not
good enough when we see machines with 100's of physical cores and
TBs of RAM.
In comparison to other memory requirements of libvirtd & related
daemons, the resource usage associated with open file handles
is essentially line noise. It is thus reasonable to increase the
limits unconditionally for all installs.

For logging one-shot entries to the VM log file it's quite a waste to
hold open the file descriptor for logging that is provided by the
current API.
This new API will be ideal for logging one-shot entries to the file
e.g. at the point when we shut the VM down rather than having to add the
whole file-descriptor infrastructure.
Additionally this will allow to add the messages even after restart of
libvirtd since virtlogd doesn't allow to obtain a regular context with
filedescriptors while the VM is still active.
Admin API needs a way of addressing specific clients. Unlike servers, which we
are happy to address by names both because its name reflects its purpose (to
some extent) and we only have two of them (so far), naming clients doesn't make
any sense, since a) each client is an anonymous, i.e. not recognized after a
disconnect followed by a reconnect, b) we can't predict what kind of requests
it's going to send to daemon, and c) the are loads of them comming and going,

file rotation happens when required.
Initially the log setup is hardcoded to cap log files at
128 KB, and keep 3 backups when rolling over, which gives
a max usage of 512 KB per guest.

Copy the virtlockd codebase across to form the initial virlogd
code. Simple search & replace of s/lock/log/ and gut the remote
protocol & dispatcher. This gives us a daemon that starts up
and listens for connections, but does nothing with them.
