The security driver was mistakenly initialized before the QEMU
config file was loaded. This prevents it being turned off again.
The capabilities XML was also getting the wrong security driver
name, due to the stacked driver arrangement.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fix initialization order and capabilities
model name
* src/util/util.h (virAsprintf): Remove ATTRIBUTE_RETURN_CHECK, since
it is perfectly fine to ignore the return value, now that the pointer
is guaranteed to be set to NULL upon failure.
* src/util/storage_file.c (absolutePathFromBaseFile): Remove now-
unnecessary use of ignore_value.
* src/util/storage_file.c (absolutePathFromBaseFile): While this use
of virAsprintf is slightly cleaner than using stpncpy(stpcpy(...,
it does impose an artificial limitation on the length of the base_file
name. Rather than asserting that it does not exceed INT_MAX, return
NULL when it does.
When creating preallocated large raw files opening them with O_DSYNC
prevents long delays in reading because cache pages can be immediately
reused without writing them on a disk first.
virDomain{Attach,Detach}Device is now only permitted on active
domains. Explicitly state this restriction in the API
documentation.
V2: Only change doc, dropping the hunk that forced the restriction
in libvirt frontend.
When configured with --enable-gcc-warnings, it didn't even compile.
* src/util/storage_file.c: Include <assert.h>.
(absolutePathFromBaseFile): Assert that converting size_t to int is valid.
Reverse length/string args to match "%.*s".
Explicitly ignore the return value of virAsprintf.
* src/util/storage_file.c: Include "dirname.h".
(absolutePathFromBaseFile): Rewrite not to leak, and to require
fewer allocations.
* bootstrap (modules): Add dirname-lgpl.
* .gnulib: Update submodule to the latest.
When restoring from a saved guest image, the XML would already
contain the PCI slot ID of the IDE controller & video card.
The attempt to explicitly reserve this upfront would thus fail
everytime.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Reserve IDE controller / video card
slot at time of need, rather than upfront
Similar fix as previous one but for fork() usage when creating
a file or directory
* src/util/util.c: virLogLock() and virLogUnlock() around fork()
in virFileCreate() and virDirCreateSimple()
Ad pointed out by Dan Berrange:
So if some thread in libvirtd is currently executing a logging call,
while another thread calls virExec(), that other thread no longer
exists in the child, but its lock is never released. So when the
child then does virLogReset() it deadlocks.
The only way I see to address this, is for the parent process to call
virLogLock(), immediately before fork(), and then virLogUnlock()
afterwards in both parent & child. This will ensure that no other
thread
can be holding the lock across fork().
* src/util/logging.[ch] src/libvirt_private.syms: export virLogLock() and
virLogUnlock()
* src/util/util.c: lock just before forking and unlock just after - in
both parent and child.
The original udev node device backend neglected to lock the driverState
struct containing the device list when adding and removing devices
* src/node_device/node_device_udev.c: add necessary locks in
udevRemoveOneDevice() and udevAddOneDevice()
* src/xen/xs_internal.c (xenStoreDomainIntroduced): Don't use -1
as an allocation size upon xenStoreNumOfDomains failure.
(xenStoreDomainReleased): Likewise.
If the primary security driver (SELinux/AppArmour) was disabled
then the secondary QEMU DAC security driver was also disabled.
This is mistaken, because the latter must be active at all times
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Ensure DAC driver is always active
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c: Remove all "domain == NULL" tests.
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.h: Instead, use ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL to
mark each "domain" parameter as "known always to be non-NULL".
When attaching a USB host device based on vendor/product, libvirt
will resolve the vendor/product into a device/bus pair. This means
that when printing XML we should allow device/bus info to be printed
at any time if present
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, docs/schemas/domain.rng: Allow USB device
bus info alongside vendor/product
To allow devices to be hot(un-)plugged it is neccessary to ensure
they all have a unique device aliases. This fixes the hotplug
methods to assign device aliases before invoking the monitor
commands which need them
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Expose methods
for assigning device aliases for disks, host devices and
controllers
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Assign device aliases when hotplugging
all types of device
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-hostdev-pci-address-device.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-hostdev-usb-address-device.args:
Update for changed hostdev naming scheme
This patch re-arranges the QEMU device alias assignment code to
make it easier to call into the same codeblock when performing
device hotplug. The new code has the ability to skip over already
assigned names to facilitate hotplug
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Call qemuAssignDeviceNetAlias()
instead of qemuAssignNetNames
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Export qemuAssignDeviceNetAlias()
instead of qemuAssignNetNames
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Merge the legacy disk/network alias
assignment code into the main methods
The current way of assigning names to the host network backend and
NIC device in QEMU was over complicated, by varying naming scheme
based on the NIC model and backend type. This simplifies the naming
to simply be 'net0' and 'hostnet0', allowing code to easily determine
the host network name and vlan based off the primary device alias
name 'net0'. This in turn allows removal of alot of QEMU specific
code from the XML parser, and makes it easier to assign new unique
names for NICs that are hotplugged
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: Remove hostnet_name
and vlan fields from virNetworkDefPtr
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c:
Use a single network alias naming scheme regardless of NIC type
or backend type. Determine VLANs from the alias name.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-eth-names.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-device.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-netdev.args: Update
for new simpler naming scheme
The QEMU 0.12.x tree has the -netdev command line argument, but not
corresponding monitor command. We can't enable the former, without
the latter since it will break hotplug/unplug.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Disable -netdev usage
until 0.13 at earliest
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c: Add test for -netdev syntax
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-netdev.args,
tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-net-virtio-netdev.xml: Test
data files for -netdev syntax
