Previous commit moved some lists out of the -devel package

commit feffcc03a0
Author: Cole Robinson <crobinso@redhat.com>
Date: Wed Apr 13 10:37:42 2016 -0400
spec: Only pull in API docs with -devel package
What was not realized is that the rule 'libvirt-docs/*'
and ' docs/*.html docs/html docs/*.gif' actually point
to the exact same content. ie, we had previously included
the website HTML in *both* the -docs and -devel packages.

If libvirt-daemon-config-network is installed while libvirtd is already
running, the daemon doesn't notice the network. Users then have to
manually restart libvirtd (or reboot) to pick up the network.
Instead let's trigger a daemon restart when the package is first installed.
Then the default network is available immediately if libvirtd was already
running.

This reverts commit 1e9808d3a1.
We shouldn't advertise libvirtd.socket activation, since currently
it means VM/network/... autostart won't work as expected.
We tried to find a middle ground by installing the config file without
an [Install] section, since systemd won't allow .socket to be enabled
without one... or at least it did do that; presently on f24 it allows
activating the socket quite happily. This also caused user confusion[1]
Just remove the socket file. I've filed a new RFE to track coming up
with a solution to the autostart problem[2], we can point users at that
if there's more confusion:

Move some API specific documentation out of -docs package and into
-devel, and some end user docs out of -devel and into -docs, then
drop the -devel dep on -docs. This is more in line with the suggested
Fedora guidelines.

Using one Makefile per example subdirectory essentially serializes 'make'
calls. Convert to one example/Makefile that builds and distributes
all the subdir files. This reduces example/ rebuild time from about 5.8
seconds to 1.5 seconds on my machine.
One slight difference is that we no longer ship Makefile.am with the
examples in the rpm. This was virtually useless anyways since the Makefile
was very specific to libvirt infrastructure, so wasn't generically
reusable anyways.
Tested with 'make distcheck' and 'make rpm'
When installing the libvirt-daemon RPM, we have a %post rule to
enable the libvirtd.service, virtlockd.socket and virtlogd.socket
files. This is only done, however, when the RPM is first installed,
not when upgrading RPMs. So virtlogd will not get activated on
upgrading, which is a problem as libvirt qemu driver will expect
it to be available by default.
This adds a trigger that is run when uninstalling libvirt-daemon
older than 1.3.0 that will enable & start virtlogd.socket if
libvirtd is enabled and/or started. Using the trigger rather
than %post ensures that it only runs once, allowing admins to
disable it explicitly thereafter without future upgrades
re-enabling it.

There has been a report on the list [1] that we are not
installing the wireshark dissector into the correct plugin
directory. And in fact we are not. The problem is, the plugin
directory path is constructed at compile time. However, it's
dependent on the wireshark version, e.g.
/usr/lib/wireshark/plugins/1.12.6
This is rather unfortunate, because if libvirt RPMs were built
with one version, but installed on a system with newer one, the
plugins are not really loaded. This problem lead fedora packagers
to unify plugin path to:
/usr/lib/wireshark/plugins/
Cool! But this was enabled just in wireshark-1.12.6-4. Therefore,
we must require at least that version.
And while at it, on some distributions, the wireshark.pc file
already has a variable that defines where plugin dir is. Use that
if possible.

Commit f1f68ca334 tried fixing running multiple domains under various
users, but if the user can't browse the directory, it's hard for the
qemu running under that user to create the monitor socket.
The permissions need to be fixed in two places in the spec file due to
support for both installations with and without driver modules.
Creating a directory with '$(MKDIR_P) -m' shouldn't fail even on systems

that inherits from virAbstractConnectPtr and thus trivially supports
error reporting.
There's pkg-config file added and spec-file adjusted as well.
Since the library should be "minimalistic" and not depend on any other
library, the list of files is especially crafted for it. Most of them
could've been put to it's own sub-libraries that would be LIBADD'd to
libvirt_util, libvirt_net_rpc and libvirt_setuid_rpc_client to minimize
the number of object files being built, but that's a refactoring that

This is a folloup to commit 5f719596, which checks for a route
conflicting with the standard libvirt default network subnet
(192.168.122.0/24). It turns out that $() strips the trailing newline
from the output of "ip route show", so there would be no match if the
route we were looking for was the final line of output. This can be
solved by adding ${nl} to the end of the output (just as we were
already adding it at the beginning of the output).
Sometimes libvirt is installed on a host that is already using the
network 192.168.122.0/24. If the libvirt-daemon-config-network package
is installed, this creates a conflict, since that package has been
hard-coded to create a virtual network that also uses
192.168.122.0/24. In the past libvirt has attempted to warn of /
remediate this situation by checking for conflicting routes when the
network is started, but it turns out that isn't always useful (for
example in the case that the *other* interface/network creating the
conflict hasn't yet been started at the time libvirtd start its own
networks).
This patch attempts to catch the problem earlier - at install
time. During the %post install script for
libvirt-daemon-config-network, we use a case statement to look through
the output of "ip route show" for a route that exactly matches
192.168.122.0/24, and if found we search for a similar route that
*doesn't* match (e.g. 192.168.124.0/24) (note that the search starts
with "124" instead of 123 because of reports of people already
modifying their L1 host's network to 192.168.123.0/24 in an attempt to
solve exactly the problem we are also trying to solve). When we find
an available route, we just replace all occurrences of "122" in the
default.xml that is being created with the newly found 192.168
subnet. This could obviously be made more complicated - examine the
template defaul.xml to automatically determine the existing network
address and mask rather than hard coding it in the specfile, etc, but
this scripting is simpler and gets the job done as long as we continue
to use 192.168.122.0/24 in the template. (If anyone with mad bash
skillz wants to suggest something to do that, by all means please do).
This is intended to at least "further reduce" occurrence of the
problems detailed in:

I've noticed two problem with the automatically created NVRAM varstore
file. The first, even though I run qemu as root:root for some reason I
get Permission denied when trying to open the _VARS.fd file. The
problem is, the upper directory misses execute permissions, which in
combination with us dropping some capabilities result in EPERM.
The next thing is, that if I switch SELinux to enforcing mode, I get
another EPERM because the vars file is not labeled correctly. It is
passed to qemu as disk and hence should be labelled as disk. QEMU may
write to it eventually, so this is different to kernel or initrd.

When using split UEFI image, it may come handy if libvirt manages per
domain _VARS file automatically. While the _CODE file is RO and can be
shared among multiple domains, you certainly don't want to do that on
the _VARS file. This latter one needs to be per domain. So at the
domain startup process, if it's determined that domain needs _VARS
file it's copied from this master _VARS file. The location of the
master file is configurable in qemu.conf.
Temporary, on per domain basis the location of master NVRAM file can
be overridden by this @template attribute I'm inventing to the
<nvram/> element. All it does is holding path to the master NVRAM file
from which local copy is created. If that's the case, the map in
qemu.conf is not consulted.

Since times when vbox moved to the daemon (due to some licensing

opened since our generic subdrivers took priority. I've tried to fix
this in 65b7d553f3 but it was not correct. Apparently moving
vbox driver registration upfront changes the default connection URI
which makes some users sad. So, this commit breaks vbox into pieces

It would be nice if we have an example to inspire people. And that's

I've chosen this one as I think it show explicitly what users need to

This commit moves a few directories into more appropriate subpackages.
In a few cases a directory is owned by two subpackages, however this is
OK as long as the permissions and ownership for the directory are
consistent between them.
- %{_sysconfdir}/libvirt/qemu/
Used by the qemu and network drivers.
When building with separate driver modules, this directory is only
owned by l-d-d-network. l-d-d-qemu has a hard dependency on
l-d-d-network, which means this directory is created with the
correct permissions and ownership, however it's clearer if both
subpackages own the directory independently.
- %{_sysconfdir}/libvirt/nwfilter/
Used by the nwfilter driver only.
This directory is currently always owned by libvirt-daemon. This
commit moves it into l-d-d-nwfilter when building with separate
driver modules.
- %{_localstatedir}/run/libvirt/network/
Used by the network and nwfilter drivers.
When building without separate driver modules, this directory is
should be owned by libvirt-daemon only if either of these drivers
are enabled. When building with separate driver modules, this
directory should be owned by l-d-d-nwfilter in addition to
l-d-d-network.
- %{_datadir}/libvirt/networks/ and
%{_datadir}/libvirt/networks/default.xml
Used only by the %post scriptlet in libvirt-daemon-config-network.

Libvirt tarball contains po/stamp-po file which prevents any po/*.gmo
file to be regenerated even if a corresponding po/*.po file is newer. By
removing the stamp-po file, all *.gmo files are properly updated if
required. This allows downstreams to provide patches that update
translations.
On Fedora 20, I added this to my '~/.rpmmacros':
%_without_udev 1
%_without_storage_mpath 1
%_without_storage_disk 1
and uninstalled systemd-devel (which also removed device-mapper-devel).
Then I ran 'make rpm', and inspected the results:
$ ldd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/libvirt-1.2.2/daemon/.libs/libvirtd | grep syst
$
Then I reinstalled systemd-devel, where I now see:
$ ldd ~/rpmbuild/BUILD/libvirt-1.2.2/daemon/.libs/libvirtd | grep syst
libsystemd-daemon.so.0 => /lib64/libsystemd-daemon.so.0 (0x00007ffb858ba000)
$
Oops - the build is non-deterministic, where the final binary
depends on my build environment. The fix is to require
systemd-devel in all situations where the code base uses it.
Now ~/.rpmmacros can contain "%define _without_systemd_daemon 1"
to explicitly disable use of the library, but the library is now
a strict build requirement for normal builds; if systemd-devel
is not installed, the user now gets an up-front warning:

On Fedora 20, with the following in my ~/.rpmmacros:
%_without_udev 1

and with device-mapper-devel uninstalled, 'make rpm' fails with:
checking for libdevmapper.h... no
configure: error: You must install device-mapper-devel/libdevmapper >= 1.0.0 to compile libvirt

This is a rather late point to be issuing an error; better is
to flag missing packages up front. The fix is to match the logic
in configure.ac on when devmapper is required (for both mpath and
storage). While at it, rbd storage is not dependent on mpath.

Generally, we try to make the spec file tweakable via user
variables, so that they can select a different subset of sub-rpms
to build. We also try to explicitly list all driver config
options, rather than leaving the chance that the rpm build may be
non-deterministic based on what the user had installed locally.
But in the case of the recent bhyve hypervisor driver, there is
no port of bhyve to Linux, so it is easier to just blindly
disable it for now. If someone ever does try to port bhyve to
Fedora, we can make the spec file conditional at that point.

This reverts commit 8d6c3659b8.
After further list discussion, it was decided that pulling in
wireshark as a dependency is a bit too much for the base 'libvirt'

Commit ff76566 moved around things in the specfiles to put
driver-specific files into their appropriate sub-packages (when
with_driver_modules == 1), but accidentally changed things so that the
deamon-driver-network and daemon-config-network files were only
included in a package when with_driver_modules == 0. This broke "make
rpm" on fedora (where with_driver_modules == 1).
This patch follows the pattern (already used for the files in other
sub-modules) of duplicating the files for the main package
(!with_driver_modules) and the sub-package (with_driver_modules).

- systemctl and the %systemd_* RPM macros can take multiple unit names
in the one invocation. Make use of this to avoid repeated systemd
daemon reloads.
- virtlockd was only properly enabled and disabled when using systemd,
but when systemd RPM macros were not available (e.g. on Fedora < 18).
Make sure it's enabled when systemd RPM macros are present, or when
using initscripts.
- Always use "reload" on virtlockd, not "condrestart". This allows it to
cleanly re-execute itself without losing running state. Ignore any
error should the reload fail.
- Move the reloading of virtlockd and libvirtd via their initscripts
into the daemon package's %postun scriptlet. These services must be
restarted after all of the libvirt-daemon-driver-* packages have
been upgraded during the same RPM transaction.
- Add a %triggerpostun executed only when upgrading an older
libvirt-daemon. As an older package would only reload libvirtd during
%post, and the newer package would only reload libvirtd during
%postun, such an upgrade would not reload libvirtd at all without the
trigger.

The libvirt-daemon package contains several driver-specific files,
directories, and script, which can be problematic when building the
package with multiple hypervisor support, e.g. both QEMU and Xen.
E.g. installing a QEMU+Xen enabled libvirt-daemon on a Xen-only system
will result in the creation of qemu and kvm groups and a qemu user.
Move the driver-specific files, directories, and script to the
respective driver subpackages.
The daemon-config-{network,nwfilter} subpackages are built regardless
of whether or not with_driver_modules is defined, therefore don't
conditionally define their files list.
The domsuspend example code is a really old and bad exmample of (how not
to use) the libvirt API. Remove it as it's apparent that nobody tried to
use it. It was broken and nobody complained.
We support gluster volumes in domain XML, so we also ought to
support them as a storage pool. Besides, a future patch will
want to take advantage of libgfapi to handle the case of a
gluster device holding qcow2 rather than raw storage, and for
that to work, we need a storage backend that can read gluster
storage volume contents. This sets up the framework.
Note that the new pool is named 'gluster' to match a
<disk type='network'><source protocol='gluster'> image source
already supported in a <domain>; it does NOT match the
<pool type='netfs'><source><target type='glusterfs'>,
since that uses a FUSE mount to a local file name rather than
a network name.
This and subsequent patches have been tested against glusterfs
3.4.1 (available on Fedora 19); there are likely bugs in older
versions that may prevent decent use of gfapi, so this patch
enforces the minimum version tested. A future patch may lower
the minimum. On the other hand, I hit at least two bugs in
3.4.1 that will be fixed in 3.5/3.4.2, where it might be worth
raising the minimum: glfs_readdir is nicer to use than
glfs_readdir_r [1], and glfs_fini should only return failure on
an actual failure [2].

RHEL-6's rpmbuild wipes the docdir for a (sub-)package if any %doc

With the existing pkcheck (pid, start time) tuple for identifying
the process, there is a race condition, where a process can make
a libvirt RPC call and in another thread exec a setuid application,
causing it to change to effective UID 0. This in turn causes polkit
to do its permission check based on the wrong UID.
To address this, libvirt must get the UID the caller had at time
of connect() (from SO_PEERCRED) and pass a (pid, start time, uid)
triple to the pkcheck program.
This fix requires that libvirt is re-built against a version of
polkit that has the fix for its CVE-2013-4288, so that libvirt
can see 'pkg-config --variable pkcheck_supports_uid polkit-gobject-1'

The gnulib testsuite is relatively stable - the only times it is
likely to have a test change from pass to fail is on a gnulib
submodule update or a major system change (such as moving from
Fedora 18 to 19, or other large change to libc). While it is an
important test for end users on arbitrary machines (to make sure
that the portability glue works for their machine), it mostly
wastes time for development testing (as most developers aren't
making any of the major changes that would cause gnulib tests
to alter behavior). Thus, it pays to make the tests optional
at configure time, defaulting to off for development, on for
tarballs, with autobuilders requesting it to be on. It also
helps to allow a make-time override, via VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=[01]
(much the way automake sets up V=[01] for overriding the configure
time default of how verbose to be).
Automake has some pretty hard-coded magic with regards to the
TESTS variable; I had quite a job figuring out how to keep
'make distcheck' passing regardless of the configure option
setting in use, while still disabling the tests at runtime
when I did not configure them on and did not use the override
variable. Thankfully, we require GNU make, which lets me

Newer gnutls uses nettle, rather than gcrypt, which is a lot nicer
regarding initialization. Yet we were unconditionally initializing
gcrypt even when gnutls wouldn't be using it, and having two crypto
libraries linked into libvirt.so is pointless, but mostly harmless
(it doesn't crash, but does interfere with certification efforts).
There are three distinct version ranges to worry about when
determining which crypto lib gnutls uses, per these gnutls mails:

3.0: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2011-07/msg00035.html
If pkg-config can prove version numbers and/or list the crypto
library used for static linking, we have our proof; if not, it
is safer (even if pointless) to continue to use gcrypt ourselves.

Since commit b8a32e0e94, all man pages

When a changelog entry references an RPM macro, % needs to be escaped so
that it does not appear expanded in package changelog.
Fri Mar 4 2009 is incorrect since Mar 4 was Wednesday. Since
libvirt-0.6.1 was released on Mar 4 2009, we should change Fri to Wed.
The macro was made to help installing broken packages that did not use
DESTDIR correctly by overriding individual path variables (prefix,
sysconfdir, ...). Newer rpm provides fixed make_install macro that calls
make install with just the correct DESTDIR, however it is not available
everywhere (e.g., RHEL 5 does not have it). On the other hand the
make_install macro is simple and straightforward enough for us to use
its expansion directly.
Nested conditionals are hard to read if they are not indented.
We can't add arbitrary whitespace to everything in spec files,
but we CAN add spaces before %if and %define. Use this trick,
plus a fancy sed script that rewrites a spec file into a C
file, so we can use cppi to keep our spec file nice.
For reference, the sed script converts code like:
|# RHEL-5 builds are client-only for s390, ppc
|%if 0%{?rhel} == 5
| %ifnarch %{ix86} x86_64 ia64
| %define client_only 1

|// # RHEL-5 builds are client-only for s390, ppc
|#if a // 0%{?rhel} == 5
|# if a // %{ix86} x86_64 ia64
|# define client_only 1

This patch introduces support for LXC specific public APIs. In
common with what was done for QEMU, this creates a libvirt_lxc.so
library and libvirt/libvirt-lxc.h header file.
The actual APIs are
int virDomainLxcOpenNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
int **fdlist,
unsigned int flags);
int virDomainLxcEnterNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
unsigned int nfdlist,
int *fdlist,
unsigned int *noldfdlist,
int **oldfdlist,
unsigned int flags);
which provide a way to use the setns() system call to move the
calling process into the container's namespace. It is not
practical to write in a generically applicable manner. The
nearest that we could get to such an API would be an API which
allows to pass a command + argv to be executed inside a
container. Even if we had such a generic API, this LXC specific
API is still useful, because it allows the caller to maintain
the current process context, in particular any I/O streams they
have open.
NB the virDomainLxcEnterNamespace() API is special in that it
runs client side, so does not involve the internal driver API.

There are many aspects of the guest XML which result in the
SELinux driver applying file labelling. With the increasing
configuration options it is desirable to test this behaviour.
It is not possible to assume that the test suite has the
ability to set SELinux labels. Most filesystems though will
support extended attributes. Thus for the purpose of testing,
it is possible to extend the existing LD_PRELOAD hack to
override setfilecon() and getfilecon() to simply use the
'user.libvirt.selinux' attribute for the sake of testing.

On rhel5, libs of avahi are packaged into avahi instead of avahi-libs.
Actually, there is no avahi-libs package shipped with rhel5. This patch
fixes this by requiring avahi on rhel5.
The daemon-driver-{qemu,lxc} packages are only built if
%{with_driver_modules} is specified, so they do not need to
further test this condition. Likewise, the daemon package
is only built if %{with_libvirtd} is specified, so it does
not need to further test this condition.

When building libvirt rpms on rhel5, I got the following error:

After checking document of rpm spec file, I think it would be better
to move the file deleting line from %files list to %install script.

In a non-systemd environment the post and preun scripts of libvirt-client

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=887017 reports that
even though libvirt attempts to set fs.aio-max-nr via sysctl,
the file was installed with the wrong name and gets ignored by
sysctl. Furthermore, 'man systcl.d' recommends that packages
install into hard-coded /usr/lib/sysctl.d (even when libdir is
/usr/lib64), so that sysadmins can use /etc/sysctl.d for overrides.
* daemon/Makefile.am (install-sysctl, uninstall-sysctl): Use
correct location.
* libvirt.spec.in (network_files): Reflect this.
Unfortunately, rpm is stupid enough to bytycompile python scripts even
though they are located in /usr/share/doc/libvirt-python-*/examples and
it does so after %install phase is finished. Thus there's no way we
could remove those files from BUILDROOT. As a workaround, we may safely
remove the examples subdirectory completely without losing anything. The
python scripts that were installed there are also copied directly into
/usr/share/doc/libvirt-python-*/ by
%doc python/tests/*.py
rule. And yes, the files are actually tests, not examples.
The virtlockd daemon maintains file locks on behalf of libvirtd
and any VMs it is running. These file locks must be held for as
long as any VM is running. If virtlockd itself ever quits, then
it is expected that a node would be fenced/rebooted. Thus to
allow for software upgrads on live systemd, virtlockd needs the
ability to re-exec() itself.
Upon receipt of SIGUSR1, virtlockd will save its current live
state out to a file /var/run/virtlockd-restart-exec.json
It then re-exec()'s itself with exactly the same argv as it
originally had, and loads the state file, reconstructing any
objects as appropriate.
The state file contains information about all locks held and
all network services and clients currently active. An example
state document is

The virtlockd daemon will maintain locks on behalf of libvirtd.
There are two reasons for it to be separate
- Avoid risk of other libvirtd threads accidentally
releasing fcntl() locks by opening + closing a file
that is locked
- Ensure locks can be preserved across libvirtd restarts.
virtlockd will need to be able to re-exec itself while
maintaining locks. This is simpler to achieve if its
sole job is maintaining locks

This patch converts the Xen libxl driver to support only Xen >= 4.2.
Support for Xen 4.1 libxl is dropped since that version of libxl is
designated 'technology preview' only and is incompatible with Xen 4.2
libxl. Additionally, the default toolstack in Xen 4.1 is still xend,
for which libvirt has a stable, functional driver.

In older Fedora, the spec file for libivrt depended on avahi, which
included avahi-daemon, which in turn depended on dbus. But now that
avahi libs and avahi-daemon are (correctly) in separate pacakges,
and since we REALLY don't want a mandatory dependency on avahi-daemon,
and considering that our init scripts require the messagebus service
from dbus, we need to explicitly require dbus ourselves.
* libvirt.spec.in (Requires): Add dbus for libvirt-daemon.
Implement the domainManagedSave, domainHasManagedSaveImage, and
domainManagedSaveRemove functions in the libvirt legacy xen driver.
domainHasManagedSaveImage check the managedsave image from filesystem

libxl driver, there is a hasManagesSave flag in virDomainObjPtr which
is not used in xen legacy driver. This flag could not add into xen
driver ptr either, because the driver ptr will be released at the end of
every libvirt api call. Meanwhile, AFAIK, xen store all the flags in
xen not in libvirt xen driver. There is no need to add this flag in xen.

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.
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.
Libssh2 transport support was enabled lately but the spec file wasn't
updated to take this into account. This caused libvirt to be built
without libssh2 support in Red Hat based OSes.
While the changes to sanlock driver should be stable, the actual
implementation of sanlock_helper is supposed to be replaced in the
future. However, before we can implement a better sanlock_helper, we
need an administrative interface to libvirtd so that the helper can just
pass a "leases lost" event to the particular libvirt driver and
everything else will be taken care of internally. This approach will
also allow libvirt to pass such event to applications and use
appropriate reasons when changing domain states.
The temporary implementation handles all actions directly by calling
appropriate libvirt APIs (which among other things means that it needs
to know the credentials required to connect to libvirtd).
I noticed that in two places, we require util-linux, and in a third,
we require util-linux-ng. On Fedora (I tested F15 through rawhide),
util-linux-ng is obsoleted by util-linux; on RHEL 6, util-linux
is obsoleted by util-linux-ng. That is, on either platform, either
name will get you the correct package installed (where the preferred
name on fedora is util-linux, and on RHEL 6 is util-linux-ng). But
on RHEL 5, there is no util-linux-ng
* libvirt.spec.in (Requires): Use util-linux, not util-linux-ng.
The Fedora policies don't want us installing the legacy initscripts
in parallel with the systemd ones, so switch to only install the

Based exclusively on work by Eric Blake in a patch posted with the same
subject. However some modifications related to comments and my plans to
add another backend.
Added WITH_INTERFACE as the only automake variable deciding whether to
build the driver and using WITH_NETCF to identify that we're wanting to
use the netcf library as the backend.
* configure.ac: Added with_interface
* src/interface/netcf_driver.c: Renamed..
* src/interface/interface_backend_netcf.c: ..to this to match storage.

* daemon/Makefile.am: Respect WITH_INTERFACE and WITH_NETCF.
* libvirt.spec.in: Add RPM support for --with-interface
When building RPMs the host kernel cannot be assumed to match
the target OS kernel. Thus auto-detecting /selinux vs
/sys/fs/selinux based on the host kernel can result in the
wrong choice (eg F18 builds on a RHEL6 host kernel)

A previous patch forced libnl-3 and netcf-0.2.2 (which itself requires
libnl-3) when *building* for Fedora 18+ (and RHEL 7+), but the
install-time Requires: for netcf has always been implicit due to
libvirtd linking with libnetcf.so. However, the since the API of netcf
didn't change when it was rebuilt to use libnl-3, the internal library
version didn't change either, making it possible (from rpm's point of
view) to upgrade libvirt without upgrading netcf (in reality, that
leads to a segfault - see
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=853381).
The solution is to put an explicit Requires: line in libvirt's
specfile for fedora >= 18 and rhel >= 7.
The libvirt storage driver uses librbd.so for its functionality.
RPM will automatically add a dependency on the library, so there
is no need to have an explicit dependency on the ceph RPM itself.
This allows newer Fedora distros to avoid pulling in the huge
ceph RPM, in favour of just having the libraries installed
Everything is ready in both netcf and libvirt to switch over to libnl3
in future releases of both Fedora and RHEL. This needs to be done more
or less simultaneously in both packages, though, because you can't mix
libnl1.1 and libnl3 in the same process (e.g. libvirtd using
libnl-3.so and libnetcf.so, while libnetcf.so uses libnl.so)
This patch does two things when fedora >= 18 || rhel >= 7):
1) requires libnl3-devel
2) requires netcf-devel-0.2.2 or greater
(the idea is that a similar patch is going into netcf's specfile, so
that when a build of netcf is done on F18 or later (or RHEL7 or later)
netcf will be guaranteed to be built with libnl3 rather than
libnl-1.1)
* configure.ac, spec file: firewalld defaults to enabled if dbus is
available, otherwise is disabled. If --with_firewalld is explicitly
requested and dbus is not available, configure will fail.
* bridge_driver: add dbus filters to get the FirewallD1.Reloaded
signal and DBus.NameOwnerChanged on org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.
When these are encountered, reload all the iptables reuls of all
libvirt's virtual networks (similar to what happens when libvirtd is
restarted).
* iptables, ebtables: use firewall-cmd's direct passthrough interface
when available, otherwise use iptables and ebtables commands. This
decision is made once the first time libvirt calls
iptables/ebtables, and that decision is maintained for the life of
libvirtd.
* Note that the nwfilter part of this patch was separated out into
another patch by Stefan in V2, so that needs to be revised and
re-reviewed as well.
================
All the configure.ac and specfile changes are unchanged from Thomas'
V3.
V3 re-ran "firewall-cmd --state" every time a new rule was added,
which was extremely inefficient. V4 uses VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT to set
up a one-time initialization function.
The VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT(x) macro references a static function called
vir(Ip|Eb)OnceInit(), which will then be called the first time that
the static function vir(Ip|Eb)TablesInitialize() is called (that
function is defined for you by the macro). This is
thread-safe, so there is no chance of any race.
IMPORTANT NOTE: I've left the VIR_DEBUG messages in these two init
functions (one for iptables, on for ebtables) as VIR_WARN so that I
don't have to turn on all the other debug message just to see
these. Even if this patch doesn't need any other modification, those
messages need to be changed to VIR_DEBUG before pushing.
This one-time initialization works well. However, I've encountered
problems with testing:
1) Whenever I have enabled the firewalld service, *all* attempts to
call firewall-cmd from within libvirtd end with firewall-cmd hanging
internally somewhere. This is *not* the case if firewall-cmd returns
non-0 in response to "firewall-cmd --state" (i.e. *that* command runs
and returns to libvirt successfully.)
2) If I start libvirtd while firewalld is stopped, then start
firewalld later, this triggers libvirtd to reload its iptables rules,
however it also spits out a *ton* of complaints about deletion failing
(I suppose because firewalld has nuked all of libvirt's rules). I
guess we need to suppress those messages (which is a more annoying
problem to fix than you might think, but that's another story).
3) I noticed a few times during this long line of errors that
firewalld made a complaint about "Resource Temporarily
unavailable. Having libvirtd access iptables commands directly at the
same time as firewalld is doing so is apparently problematic.
4) In general, I'm concerned about the "set it once and never change
it" method - if firewalld is disabled at libvirtd startup, causing
libvirtd to always use iptables/ebtables directly, this won't cause
*terrible* problems, but if libvirtd decides to use firewall-cmd and
firewalld is later disabled, libvirtd will not be able to recover.
The 'make check' was rebuilding the binaries just overrided,
so for more safety also override the C program

This patch brings support to manage sheepdog pools and volumes to libvirt.
It uses the "collie" command-line utility that comes with sheepdog for that.
A sheepdog pool in libvirt maps to a sheepdog cluster.
It needs a host and port to connect to, which in most cases
is just going to be the default of localhost on port 7000.
A sheepdog volume in libvirt maps to a sheepdog vdi.
To create one specify the pool, a name and the capacity.
Volumes can also be resized later.
In the volume XML the vdi name has to be put into the <target><path>.
To use the volume as a disk source for virtual machines specify
the vdi name as "name" attribute of the <source>.
The host and port information from the pool are specified inside the host tag.
<disk type='network'>
...
<source protocol="sheepdog" name="vdi_name">
<host name="localhost" port="7000"/>
</source>

This patch adds support for a new storage backend with RBD support.
RBD is the RADOS Block Device and is part of the Ceph distributed storage
system.
It comes in two flavours: Qemu-RBD and Kernel RBD, this storage backend only
supports Qemu-RBD, thus limiting the use of this storage driver to Qemu only.
To function this backend relies on librbd and librados being present on the
local system.
The backend also supports Cephx authentication for safe authentication with
the Ceph cluster.
For storing credentials it uses the built-in secret mechanism of libvirt.

Introduce a set sub-RPMs, one per hypervisor, which can be used
as dependency targets by applications wishing to pull in the
full stack of packages required for a specific hypervisor. This
avoids the application needing to know what the hypervisor specific
package set is.
ie, applications should not need to know that using the libvirt
Xen hypervisor requires the 'xen' RPM - libvirt should take care
of that knowledge. All the application wants is 'libvirt-daemon-xen'
There are 5 sub-RPMs:
libvirt-daemon-qemu - non-native TCG based emulators
libvirt-daemon-kvm - native KVM hypervisor
libvirt-daemon-uml - User Mode linux
libvirt-daemon-xen - Xen, either via XenD or libxl
libvirt-daemon-lxc - Linux native containers
When driver modules get turned on, these sub-RPMs will also
gain dependencies on the appropriate driver module .so files
Take the libvirt RPM and split it into three pieces
- libvirt-daemon - libvirtd & other mandatory bits for its operation
- libvirt-daemon-config-network - the virbr0 config definition
- libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter - the firewall config rules
For backwards compatibility with existing installs / application RPM
deps, the 'libvirt' RPM is retained, but will have a dependency on
the 3 new RPMs.
Currently documentation is split between the libvirt RPM and the
libvirt-devel RPM. In the client-only build there is no libvirt
RPM, so the docs need to live elsewhere. The obvious answer is a
dedicated libvirt-docs RPM. For back-compatibility make the
libvirt-devel RPM require the libvirt-docs RPM
* libvirt.spec.in: Create separate libvirt-docs RPM
* configure.ac docs/news.html.in libvirt.spec.in: update for the release
* po/*.po*: updated a number of languages translation including new
indian languages and regenerated
* libvirt.spec.in: Remove obsolete --with-remote-pid-file arg.
Add missing %{without_libxl} statement. Fix handling of docs
in client only build. Put systemtap files in -client RPM
instead of -daemon RPM
* examples/xml/nwfilter/Makefile.am: Don't install examples if
nwfilter is disabled.
There are a number of flaws with our packaging of the libvirtd
daemon:
- Installing 'libvirt' does not install 'qemu-kvm' or 'xen'
etc which are required to actually run the hypervisor in
question
- Installing 'libvirt' pulls in the default configuration
files which may not be wanted & cause problems if installed
inside a guest
- It is not possible to explicitly required all the peices
required to manage a specific hypervisor
This change takes the 'libvirt' RPM and and changes it thus
- libvirt: just a virtual package with dep on libvirt-daemon,
libvirt-daemon-config-network & libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter
- libvirt-daemon: the libvirt daemon and related pieces
- libvirt-daemon-config-network: the default network config
- libvirt-daemon-config-nwfilter: the network filter configs
- libvirt-docs: the website HTML
We then introduce some more virtual (empty) packages
- libvirt-daemon-qemu: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'qemu'
- libvirt-daemon-kvm: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'qemu-kvm'
- libvirt-daemon-lxc: Deps on libvirt-daemon
- libvirt-daemon-uml: Deps on libvirt-daemon
- libvirt-daemon-xen: Deps on libvirt-daemon & 'xen'
- libvirt-qemu: Deps on libvirt-daemon-qemu & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-kvm: Deps on libvirt-daemon-kvm & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-lxc: Deps on libvirt-daemon-lxc & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-uml: Deps on libvirt-daemon-uml & libvirt-daemon-config-{network,nwfilter}
- libvirt-xen: Deps on libvirt-daemon-xen & libvirt-daemon-config-network
My intent in the future is to turn on the driver modules by
default, at which time 'libvirt-daemon' will cease to include
any specific drivers, instead we'll get libvirt-daemon-driver-XXXX
packages for each driver. The libvirt-daemon-XXX packages will
then pull in each driver that they require.
It is recommended that applications required a locally installed
libvirtd daemon, use either 'Requires: libvirt-daemon-XXXX' or
'Requires: libvirt-XXX' and *not* "Requires: libvirt-daemon"
or 'Requires: libvirt'

After adding the libvirt-guests service into usual runlevels, we used
to start the libvirt-guests service. However this is usually not a
good practice. As mentioned on fedoraproject wiki, the installations
can be in changeroots, in an installer context, or in other situations
where we don't want the services autostarted.
Currently, if scrub (used for wiping algorithms) is not present
at compile time, we don't support any other wiping algorithms than
zeroing, even if it was installed later. Switch to runtime detection
instead.
Language bindings may well want to use the libvirt-api.xml and
libvirt-qemu-api.xml files to either auto-generate themselves,
or sanity check the manually written bindings for completeness.
Currently these XML files are not installed as standard, merely
ending up as a %doc file in the RPM.
This changes them to be installed into $prefix/share/libvirt/apis/
The *-refs.xml files are not installed, since those are only
useful during generation of the online API doc files.
The pkg-config file is enhanced so that you can query the install
location of the API files. eg
# pkg-config --variable=libvirt_qemu_api libvirt
/home/berrange/builder/i686-pc-mingw32/sys-root/mingw/share/libvirt/libvirt-qemu-api.xml
* docs/Makefile.am: Install libvirt-api.xml & libvirt-qemu-api.xml
* libvirt.pc.in: Add vars for querying API install location
* libvirt.spec.in, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Include API XML files
See: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=785269
The specfile requires avahi during install if libvirt was built with
avahi support, but there are many situations where it is undesirable
to install avahi due to security concerns. This patch requires only
the avahi-libs package, which is needed by libvirt to call the
function that tries to attach to the avahi daemon, but will instead
silently fail because the avahi-daemon is in the main avahi package,
and that package isn't installed.
To assist people in verifying that their host is operating in an
optimal manner, provide a 'virt-host-validate' command. For each
type of hypervisor, it will check any pre-requisites, or other
good recommendations and report what's working & what is not.
eg
# virt-host-validate
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/kvm : FAIL (Check that the 'kvm-intel' or 'kvm-amd' modules are loaded & the BIOS has enabled virtualization)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/vhost : WARN (Load the 'vhost_net' module to improve performance of virtio networking)
QEMU: Checking for device /dev/net/tun : PASS
LXC: Checking for Linux >= 2.6.26 : PASS
This warns people if they have vmx/svm, but don't have /dev/kvm. It
also warns about missing /dev/vhost net.
