fcf93c3ee0 util: simplify virCommand APIs for env passthrough.
Now that 100% of libvirt code is forbidden in a SUID environment,
we no longer need to worry about whether env variables are
trustworthy or not. The virt-login-shell setuid program, which
does not link to any libvirt code, will purge all environment
variables, except $TERM, before invoking the virt-login-shell-helper
program which uses libvirt.

Thus we only need one API for env passthrough in virCommand.

149eda402f utils: Implement function to pass a buffer to send via a fd to virCommand
Implement virCommandSetSendBuffer() that allows the caller to pass a
file descriptor and buffer to virCommand. virCommand will write the
buffer into the file descriptor. That file descriptor could be the
write end of a pipe or one of the file descriptors of a socketpair.
The other file descriptor should be passed to the launched process to
read the data from.

Only implement the function to allocate memory for send buffers
and to free them later on.

07c9d6601d qemu: use line breaks in command line args written to log
The QEMU command line arguments are very long and currently all written
on a single line to /var/log/libvirt/qemu/$GUEST.log. This introduces
logic to add line breaks after every env variable and "-" optional

407a281a8e Revert "Prevent more compiler optimization of mockable functions"
This reverts commit e4b980c853.

When a binary links against a .a archive (as opposed to a shared library),
any symbols which are marked as 'weak' get silently dropped. As a result
when the binary later runs, those 'weak' functions have an address of
0x0 and thus crash when run.

This happened with virtlogd and virtlockd because they don't link to
libvirt.so, but instead just libvirt_util.a and libvirt_rpc.a. The
virRandomBits symbols was weak and so left out of the virtlogd &
virtlockd binaries, despite being required by virHashTable functions.

Various other binaries like libvirt_lxc, libvirt_iohelper, etc also
link directly to .a files instead of libvirt.so, so are potentially
at risk of dropping symbols leading to a later runtime crash.

This is normal linker behaviour because a weak symbol is not treated
as undefined, so nothing forces it to be pulled in from the .a You
have to force the linker to pull in weak symbols using -u$SYMNAME
which is not a practical approach.

This risk is silent bad linkage that affects runtime behaviour is
not acceptable for a fix that was merely trying to fix the test
suite. So stop using __weak__ again.

e4b980c853 Prevent more compiler optimization of mockable functions
Currently all mockable functions are annotated with the 'noinline'
attribute. This is insufficient to guarantee that a function can
be reliably mocked with an LD_PRELOAD. The C language spec allows
the compiler to assume there is only a single implementation of
each function. It can thus do things like propagating constant
return values into the caller at compile time, or creating
multiple specialized copies of the function body each optimized
for a different caller. To prevent these optimizations we must
also set the 'noclone' and 'weak' attributes.

This fixes the test suite when libvirt.so is built with CLang
with optimization enabled.

728cacc8ab annotate all mocked functions with noinline
CLang's optimizer is more aggressive at inlining functions than
gcc and so will often inline functions that our tests want to
mock-override. This causes the test to fail in bizarre ways.

We don't want to disable inlining completely, but we must at
least prevent inlining of mocked functions. Fortunately there
is a 'noinline' attribute that lets us control this per function.

A syntax check rule is added that parses tests/*mock.c to extract
the list of functions that are mocked (restricted to names starting
with 'vir' prefix). It then checks that src/*.h header file to
ensure it has a 'ATTRIBUTE_NOINLINE' annotation. This should prevent
use from bit-rotting in future.

25f87817ab virFork: simplify semantics
The old semantics of virFork() violates the priciple of good
usability: it requires the caller to check the pid argument
after use, *even when virFork returned -1*, in order to properly
abort a child process that failed setup done immediately after
fork() - that is, the caller must call _exit() in the child.
While uses in virfile.c did this correctly, uses in 'virsh
lxc-enter-namespace' and 'virt-login-shell' would happily return
from the calling function in both the child and the parent,
leading to very confusing results. [Thankfully, I found the
problem by inspection, and can't actually trigger the double
return on error without an LD_PRELOAD library.]

It is much better if the semantics of virFork are impossible
to abuse.  Looking at virFork(), the parent could only ever
return -1 with a non-negative pid if it misused pthread_sigmask,
but this never happens.  Up until this patch series, the child
could return -1 with non-negative pid if it fails to set up
signals correctly, but we recently fixed that to make the child
call _exit() at that point instead of forcing the caller to do
it.  Thus, the return value and contents of the pid argument are
now redundant (a -1 return now happens only for failure to fork,
a child 0 return only happens for a successful 0 pid, and a
parent 0 return only happens for a successful non-zero pid),
so we might as well return the pid directly rather than an
integer of whether it succeeded or failed; this is also good
from the interface design perspective as users are already
familiar with fork() semantics.

One last change in this patch: before returning the pid directly,
I found cases where using virProcessWait unconditionally on a
cleanup path of a virFork's -1 pid return would be nicer if there
were a way to avoid it overwriting an earlier message.  While
such paths are a bit harder to come by with my change to a direct
pid return, I decided to keep the virProcessWait change in this
patch.

* src/util/vircommand.h (virFork): Change signature.
* src/util/vircommand.c (virFork): Guarantee that child will only
return on success, to simplify callers.  Return pid rather than
status, now that the situations are always the same.

b9dd878ff8 util: make it easier to grab only regular command exit
Auditing all callers of virCommandRun and virCommandWait that
passed a non-NULL pointer for exit status turned up some
interesting observations.  Many callers were merely passing
a pointer to avoid the overall command dying, but without
caring what the exit status was - but these callers would
be better off treating a child death by signal as an abnormal
exit.  Other callers were actually acting on the status, but
not all of them remembered to filter by WIFEXITED and convert
with WEXITSTATUS; depending on the platform, this can result
in a status being reported as 256 times too big.  And among
those that correctly parse the output, it gets rather verbose.
Finally, there were the callers that explicitly checked that
the status was 0, and gave their own message, but with fewer
details than what virCommand gives for free.

So the best idea is to move the complexity out of callers and
into virCommand - by default, we return the actual exit status
already cleaned through WEXITSTATUS and treat signals as a
failed command; but the few callers that care can ask for raw
status and act on it themselves.

There are some units within libvirt that utilize virCommand API to run

not desired to be rewritten to dig virCommand API usage out. As a great
example virNetDevBandwidth could be used. The problem with the bandwidth
unit is: it uses virCommand API heavily. Therefore we need a mechanism

previously set. In the case of SELinux, setexeccon_raw() is called,
and for AppArmor, aa_change_profile() is called.

This functionality has been added so that users of virCommand can use
the upcoming virSecurityManagerSetChildProcessLabel() prior to running
a child process, rather than needing to setup a hook function to be
called (and in turn call virSecurityManagerSetProcessLabel()) *during*
the setup of the child process.

417182b072 util: add virCommandSetUID and virCommandSetGID
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).

68fb755002 virCommand: Introduce virCommandDoAsyncIO
Currently, if we want to feed stdin, or catch stdout or stderr of a
virCommand we have to use virCommandRun(). When using virCommandRunAsync()
we have to register FD handles by hand. This may lead to code duplication.
Hence, introduce an internal API, which does this automatically within
virCommandRunAsync(). The intended usage looks like this:

    virCommandPtr cmd = virCommandNew*(...);
    char *buf = NULL;

    ...

    virCommandSetOutputBuffer(cmd, &buf);
    virCommandDoAsyncIO(cmd);

    if (virCommandRunAsync(cmd, NULL) < 0)
        goto cleanup;

    ...

    if (virCommandWait(cmd, NULL) < 0)
        goto cleanup;

    /* @buf now contains @cmd's stdout */
    VIR_DEBUG("STDOUT: %s", NULLSTR(buf));

    ...

cleanup:
    VIR_FREE(buf);
    virCommandFree(cmd);

Note, that both stdout and stderr buffers may change until virCommandWait()
returns.
