Setting the uid/gid of the child process was the only thing done by
the hook function in this case, and that can now be done more simply
with virCommandSetUID/GID.
Rather than treating uid:gid of 0:0 as a NOP, we blindly pass that
through to the lower layers. However, we *do* check for a requested
value of "-1" to mean "don't change this setting". setregid() and
setreuid() already interpret -1 as a NOP, so this is just an
optimization, but we are also calling getpwuid_r and initgroups, and
it's unclear what the former would do with a uid of -1.
If a uid and/or gid is specified for a command, it will be set just
after the user-supplied post-fork "hook" function is called.
The intent is that this can replace user hook functions that set
uid/gid. This moves the setting of uid/gid and dropping of
capabilities closer to each other, which is important since the two
should really be done at the same time (libcapng provides a single
function that does both, which we will be unable to use, but want to
mimic as closely as possible).
All args except "cmd" in the call to virExec are now redundant, since
they can all be found in cmd, so remove the args and reference the
data directly in cmd. One exception to this is that "infd" was being
modified within virExec, and modifying the original in cmd caused make
check failures, so cmd->infd is copied to a local, and the local is
used during virExec().
virExecWithHook is only called from one place, so it always has the
same "hook" function (virHookCommand), and the data sent to that
function is always a virCommandPtr, so eliminate the function and
generic data from the arglist, and replace it with "virCommandPtr
cmd". The call to (hook)(data) is replaced with
"virHookCommand(cmd)". Finally, virExecWithHook is renamed to virExec.
Indentation has been updated only for code that will remain after the
next patch, which will remove all other args to virExec (since they
are now redundant, as they're all members of virCommandPtr).
With the majority of fields in the virQEMUDriverPtr struct
now immutable or self-locking, there is no need for practically
any methods to be using the QEMU driver lock. Only a handful
of helper APIs in qemu_conf.c now need it
Currently, if a command wants to do asynchronous IO, a callback
is registered in the libvirtd eventloop to handle writes and
reads. However, there's a race in virCommandWait. The eventloop
may already be executing the callback, while virCommandWait is
mangling internal state of virCommand. To deal with it, we need
to either introduce locking or spawn a separate thread where we
poll() on stdio from child. The former, however, requires to
unlock all mutexes held, as the event loop may execute other
callbacks which tries to lock one of the mutexes, deadlock and
thus never wake us up. So it's safer to spawn a separate thread.
Commit 8b55992f added some Coverity comments to silence what was
a real bug in the code. Since then, we've had a miserable run
of trying to fix the underlying problem (commits c059cde and
ba5193c), and still have a problem on 32-bit machines.
This fixes the problem for once and for all, by realizing that
on older xen, cpumap_t is identical to uint64_t, and using the
new virendian.h to do the transformation from the API (documented
to be little-endian) to the host structure.
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c (virXen_setvcpumap): Do the conversion
correctly. Finally.
This makes code easier to read, by avoiding lines longer than
80 columns and removing the repetition from the callers.
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (qedGetHeaderUL, qedGetHeaderULL):
Delete in favor of more generic macros.
(qcow2GetBackingStoreFormat, qcowXGetBackingStore)
(qedGetBackingStore, virStorageFileMatchesVersion)
(virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal): Use new macros.
* src/cpu/cpu_x86.c (x86VendorLoad): Likewise.
We have several cases where we need to read endian-dependent
data regardless of host endianness; rather than open-coding
these call sites, it will be nicer to funnel things through
a macro.
The virendian.h file can be expanded to add writer functions,
and/or 16-bit access patterns, if needed. Also, if we need
to turn things into a function to avoid multiple evaluations
of buf, that can be done later. But for now, a macro worked.
* src/util/virendian.h: New file.
* src/Makefile.am (UTIL_SOURCES): Ship it.
* tests/virendiantest.c: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (test_programs, virendiantest_SOURCES): Run
the test.
* .gitignore: Ignore built file.
When removing a VM from the virDomainObjListPtr, we must not
be holding the VM lock while acquiring the list lock. Re-order
code to ensure that we can release the VM lock early.
The hook scripts used by virCommand must be careful wrt
accessing any mutexes that may have been held by other
threads in the parent process. With the recent refactoring
there are 2 potential flaws lurking, which will become real
deadlock bugs once the global QEMU driver lock is removed.
Remove use of the QEMU driver lock from the hook function
by passing in the 'virQEMUDriverConfigPtr' instance directly.
Add functions to the virSecurityManager to be invoked before
and after fork, to ensure the mutex is held by the current
thread. This allows it to be safely used in the hook script
in the child process.

Add necessary handling code for the new s390 CCW address type to
virDomainDeviceInfo. Further, introduce memory management, XML
parsing, output formatting and range validation for the new
virDomainDeviceCCWAddress type.

The native bus for s390 I/O is called CCW (channel command word).
As QEMU has added basic support for the CCW bus, i.e. the
ability to assign CCW devnos (bus addresses) to devices.
Domains with the new machine type s390-ccw-virtio can use the
CCW bus. Currently QEMU will only allow to define virtio
devices on the CCW bus.
Here we add the new machine type and the new device address to the
schema definition and add a new paragraph to the domain XML
documentation.

'make check' has been failing on VPATH builds since commit
907a39e7. The tests already had magic for munging path names,
but were munging to the wrong location, thus working only on
an in-tree build.
* tests/securityselinuxlabeltest.c (testSELinuxMungePath): Munge
to correct path.
Only nodedev-destroy and nodedev-dumpxml can benifit from the
new API, other commands like nodedev-detach only works for
PCI devices, WWN makes no sense for them.
This just simply changes nodeDeviceLookupByWWN to be not static,
and its name into nodeDeviceLookupSCSIHostByWWN. And use that for
udev and HAL backends.
Like virNodeDeviceCreateXML, virNodeDeviceLookupSCSIHostByWWN
has to be treated specially when generating the RPC codes. Also
new rules are added in fixup_name to keep the name SCSIHostByWWN.
Since the name (like scsi_host10) is not stable for vHBA, (it can
be changed either after recreating or system rebooting), current
API virNodeDeviceLookupByName is not nice to use for management app
in this case. (E.g. one wants to destroy the vHBA whose name has
been changed after system rebooting, he has to find out current
name first).
Later patches will support the persistent vHBA via storage pool,
with which one can identify the vHBA stably by the wwnn && wwpn
pair.
So this new API comes.
The security manager drivers are not allowed to call back
out to top level security manager APIs, since that results
in recursive mutex acquisition and thus deadlock. Remove
calls to virSecurityManagerGetModel from SELinux / AppArmor
drivers

Turns out the issue regarding ptr_arith and sign_exension weren't false
positives. When shifting an 'unsigned char' as a target, it gets promoted
to an 'int'; however, that 'int' cannot be shifted 32 bits which was how
the algorithm was written. For the ptr_arith rather than index into the
cpumap, change the to address as necessary and assign directly.
Arguments for driver entry points are checked in libvirt.c, so no need to
check again. Make function entry points consistent. Don't type caste the
privateData.

Currently the APIs for managing the shared disk list take
a virHashTablePtr as the primary argument. This is bad
because it requires the caller to deal with locking of
the QEMU driver. Switch the APIs to take the full
virQEMUDriverPtr instance
