Commit 94c465d0 refactored the logging setup phase but introduced an
issue, where the daemon ignores verbose mode when there are no outputs
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.
Patch also adjusts both the other daemons.

The default conf files, for example libvirtd.conf, virtlockd.conf, and
virtlogd.conf, should be located under the directory "/etc/libvirt" when
root as root, rather than "/etc". When run as non-root, the configuration
files should be located under "$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/libvirt/", rather than
"XDG_CONFIG_HOME".

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.

Now that virLog{Get,Set}DefaultOutput routines are introduced we can wire them
up to the daemon's logging initialization code. Also, change the order of
operations a bit so that we still strictly honor our precedence of settings:
cmdline > env > config now that outputs and filters are not appended anymore.

Along with an empty string, it should also be possible for users to pass
NULL to the public APIs which in turn would trigger a routine(future

given the current circumstances.

Similar to outputs, parser should do parsing only, thus the 'define' logic
is going to be stripped from virLogParseAndDefineFilters by replacing calls to
this method to virLogSetFilters instead.

Since virLogParseAndDefineOutputs is going to be stripped from 'output defining'

Right now virLogParse* functions are doing both parsing and defining of filters
and outputs which should be two separate operations. Since the naming is
apparently a bit poor this patch renames these functions to
virLogParseAndDefine* which eventually will be replaced by virLogSet*.
Additionally, virLogParse{Filter,Output} will be later (after the split) reused,
so that these functions do exactly what the their name suggests.

Commit 839a060 tied the lifecycle of virtlogd more
closely to that of libvirtd. Unfortunately, while starting
virtlogd when libvirtd is started is definitely a good idea,
restarting virtlogd or shutting it down at any time outside
of system poweroff is not.
Revert part of that commit by removing the PartOf= lines,
meaning that only startup requests will be propagated from
libvirtd to virtlogd.

We already guarantee that virtlogd.socket is enabled/disabled
along with libvirtd.service, but if libvirtd.service has just
been installed and is started before rebooting, then
virtlogd.socket will not be running and guest startup will
fail.
Add Requires=virtlogd.socket to libvirtd.service to make sure
virtlogd.socket is always started along with libvirtd.service,
and add Before=libvirtd.service to both virtlogd.socket and
virtlogd.service so that virtlogd never disappears before
libvirtd has exited.
Also add PartOf=libvirtd.service to both virtlogd.socket and
virtlogd.service, so that virtlogd can be shut down when not
needed.

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,
so the only viable option is to use an ID which is of a reasonably wide data
type.

After this commit, all man pages are generated using the same two
steps:
1. Process a source $command.pod file with pod2man(1) to obtain
a valid man page in $command.$section.in
2. Process $command.$section.in with sed(1) to obtain the final
man page in $command.$section
Since servers know their name, there is no need to supply such
information twice. Also defeats inconsistencies.

At first I did not want to do this, but after trying to implement some

The virtlogd daemon currently opens all files for append, but
in some cases the user may wish to discard existing data. Define
a new flag to indicate that logfiles should be truncated when
opening.
Not all callers of virLogManagerDomainOpenLogFile will
care about getting the current inode/offset, so we should
allow those parameters to be NULL

Since the daemon can manage and add (at fresh start) multiple servers,

The current virtlogd RPC protocol provides the ability to
handle log files associated with QEMU stdout/err. The log
protocol messages take the virt driver, domain name and
use that to form a log file path. This is quite restrictive
as it prevents us re-using the same RPC protocol messages
for logging to char device backends where the filename
can be arbitrarily user specified. It is also bad because
it means we have 2 separate locations which have to decide
on logfile name.
This change alters the RPC protocol so that we pass the
desired log file path along when opening the log file
initially. Now the virt driver is exclusively in charge
of deciding the log filename

Add the virLogManager API which allows for communication with
the virtlogd daemon to RPC program. This provides the client

Define a new RPC protocol for the virtlogd daemon that provides
for handling of logs. The initial RPC method defined allows a
client to obtain a file handle to use for writing to a log
file for a guest domain. The file handle passed back will not
actually refer to the log file, but rather an anonymous pipe.
The virtlogd daemon will forward I/O between them, ensuring
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.
