When creating a logical volume with virStorageVolCreateXMLFrom,
"qemu-img convert" is called internally if clonevol is a file volume.
Then, vol->target.format is used as output_fmt parameter but the
target.format of logical volumes is always 0 because logical volumes
haven't the volume format type element.
Fortunately, 0 was treated as RAW file format before commit f772b3d9,
so there was no problem. But now, 0 is treated as the type of none,
qemu-img fails with "Unknown file format 'none'".
This patch fixes this issue by treating output block devices as RAW
file format like for input block devices.

When logical pool has no PVs associated with itself (user-created),
virCommandFree(cmd) is called twice with the same pointer and that
causes a segfault in daemon.
virStorageBackendRBDRefreshPool() first allocates an array big enough
to hold 1024 names, then calls rbd_list(), which returns ERANGE if the
array isn't big enough. When that happens, the VIR_ALLOC_N is called
again with a larger size. Unfortunately, the original array isn't
freed before allocating a new one.
This patch plugs two memory leaks, removes some useless and confusing
constructs and renames renames "cleanup" label as "error" since it is
only used for error path rather then being common for both success and
error paths.

For really old qemu-img binaries which do not support specifying
the format of the backing file, display a DEBUG message instead of
INFO that this can't be done.
The bfree and blocks fields are supposed to be in units of frsize. We were
calculating capacity correctly using those units, but the available
calculation was using bsize instead. Most file systems report these as the
same value specifically because many programs are buggy, but that is no
reason to rely on that behavior, or to behave inconsistently.
This bug has been present since e266ded (2008) and aa296e6c, when the code

Add VIR_STORAGE_VOL_CREATE_PREALLOC_METADATA flag to virStorageVolCreateXML

preallocation when creating/cloning qcow2 images, resulting in creating

compared to new image with no allocation, but offers higher performance.

It's odd to fall through to buildVol, and the existed file is
removed when buildVol fails. This checks if the volume target
path already exists in createVol. The reason for not using
error like "Volume already exists" is that there isn't volume
maintained by libvirt for the path until a operation like
pool-refresh, using error like that will just cause confusion.
Currently to deal with auto-shutdown libvirtd must periodically
poll all stateful drivers. Thus sucks because it requires
acquiring both the driver lock and locks on every single virtual
machine. Instead pass in a "inhibit" callback to virStateInitialize

due to existance of active VMs.

The only important state that should prevent libvirtd shutdown

This will simplify the refactoring of the ESX storage driver to support
a VMFS and an iSCSI backend.
One of the tasks the storage driver needs to do is to decide which backend
driver needs to be invoked for a given request. This approach extends
virStoragePool and virStorageVol to store extra parameters:
1. privateData: stores pointer to respective backend storage driver.
2. privateDataFreeFunc: stores cleanup function pointer.
virGetStoragePool and virGetStorageVol are modfied to accept these extra
parameters as user params. virStoragePoolDispose and virStorageVolDispose
checks for cleanup operation if available.
The private data pointer allows the ESX storage driver to store a pointer
to the used backend with each storage pool and volume. This avoids the need
to detect the correct backend in each storage driver function call.
Commit 258e06c removed setting of the volume type to
VIR_STORAGE_VOL_BLOCK, which leads to failures in
storageVolumeCreateXMLFrom.
The type (and target.format) of the volume was set to zero. In
virStorageBackendGetBuildVolFromFunction, this gets interpreted as
VIR_STORAGE_FILE_NONE and the qemu-img tool is called with unknown
"none" format.

Regression introduced by commit 258e06c85b, "ret" could be set to 1

virStorageVolLookupByPath is an API call that virt-manager uses
quite a bit when dealing with storage. This call use BackendStablePath
which has several usleep() heuristics that can be tripped up
and hang virt-manager for a while.
Current example: an empty mpath pool pointing to /dev/mapper makes
_any_ calls to virStorageVolLookupByPath take 5 seconds.
The sleep heuristics are actually only needed in certain cases
when we are waiting for new storage to appear, so let's skip the
timeout steps when calling from LookupByPath.
Yet another instance of where using plain open() mishandles files
that live on root-squash NFS, and where improving the API can
improve the chance of a successful probe.

Requiring pre-allocation was an unusual idiom. It allowed iteration

by default.
Rather than telling the user 'don't do that', let's just give them the
smallest allocation possible if alloc=0 is requested.

We are currently able to work only with non-translated SELinux
contexts, but we are using functions that work with translated
contexts throughout the code. This patch swaps all SELinux context
translation relative calls with their raw sisters to avoid parsing
problems.
The problems can be experienced with mcstrans for example. The
difference is that if you have translations enabled (yum install
mcstrans; service mcstrans start), fgetfilecon_raw() will get you
something like 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:s0', whereas
fgetfilecon() will return 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:SystemLow'
that we cannot parse.

Any time we have a string with no % passed through gettext, a
translator can inject a % to cause a stack overread. When there
is nothing to format, it's easier to ask for a string that cannot
be used as a formatter, by using a trivial "%s" format instead.
In the past, we have used --disable-nls to catch some of the
offenders, but that doesn't get run very often, and many more
uses have crept in. Syntax check to the rescue!
The syntax check can catch uses such as
virReportError(code,
_("split "
"string"));
by using a sed script to fold context lines into one pattern
space before checking for a string without %.

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>
</disk>

Fix the virStorageBackendFileSystemVolDelete method to not use

Commit 122fa379de introduces option to
store more than one host entry in a storage pool source definition. That
commit causes a regression, where a check is added that only one host
entry should be present (that actualy is not present as the source
structure was just allocated and zeroed) instead of allocating memory
for the host entry.
As the storage pool sources are stored in a list of structs, the pointer
returned by virStoragePoolSourceListNewSource() shouldn't be freed as it
points in the middle of a memory block. This combined with a regression
that takes the error path every time on caused a double-free abort on
the src struct in question.
mnt_fsname can not be the same, as we check the duplicate pool
sources earlier before, means it can't be the same pool, moreover,
a pool can't be started if it's already active anyway. So no reason
to act as success.
We used to prefix 'rbd:' to volume names, this is not necessary.
Qemu takes RBD devices in this way, like: qemu -drive rbd:pool/image

Currently you can't map a RBD volume name directly to a domain without removing the prefix.

Storage is one of the last domains in libvirt where we don't fully
utilize inactive and live XML. Okay, it might be because we don't
have support for that. So implement such support. However, we need
to fallback when talking to old daemon which doesn't support this
new flag called VIR_STORAGE_XML_INACTIVE.
Currently, we share the idea of old & new def with domains. Users can
*-edit an object (domain, pool) which spawns a new internal
representation for them. This is referenced via
{domainObj,poolObj}->newDef [compared to ->def]. However, for pool we
were never overwriting def with newDef. This must be done on
pool-destroy (like we do analogically in domain detroy).
The comment says:
/* Now create the final dir in the path with the uid/gid/mode
* requested in the config. If the dir already exists, just set
* the perms.
*/
However, virDirCreate is only invoked if the target path doesn't
exist yet (which is opposite with the comment), or the uid from
the config is not -1 (I don't understand why, think it's just
another mistake). And the result is the perms of the pool won't
be changed if one tries to build the pool with different perms
again.
Besides these logic error fix, if no uid and gid are specified in
the config, the practical used uid, gid are reflected.
Remove the uid param from virGetUserConfigDirectory,
virGetUserCacheDirectory, virGetUserRuntimeDirectory,
and virGetUserDirectory
These functions were universally called with the
results of getuid() or geteuid(). To make it practical
to port to Win32, remove the uid parameter and hardcode

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.

Lets say I got a volume with '1G' allocation and '10G' capacity. The

Currently, if scrub (used for wiping algorithms) is not present

zeroing, even if it was installed later. Switch to runtime detection
instead.
Input to the volume cloning code is a source volume and an XML

anyways).

excess amount that needed to be written: end result is that sparse
clones were made very much non-sparse, and cloning regular disk
images could end up excessively sized (though data unaltered).
Drop the 'remain' variable entriely here since it's redundant, and
track actual allocation directly against the desired 'total'.
virFileOpenAs previously would only try opening a file as the current
user, or as a different user, but wouldn't try both methods in a
single call. This made it cumbersome to use as a replacement for
open(2). Additionally, it had a lot of historical baggage that led to
it being difficult to understand.
This patch refactors virFileOpenAs in the following ways:
* reorganize the code so that everything dealing with both the parent
and child sides of the "fork+setuid+setgid+open" method are in a
separate function. This makes the public function easier to understand.
* Allow a single call to virFileOpenAs() to first attempt the open as
the current user, and if that fails to automatically re-try after
doing fork+setuid (if deemed appropriate, i.e. errno indicates it
would now be successful, and the file is on a networkFS). This makes
it possible (in many, but possibly not all, cases) to drop-in
virFileOpenAs() as a replacement for open(2).
(NB: currently qemuOpenFile() calls virFileOpenAs() twice, once
without forking, then again with forking. That unfortunately can't
be changed without at least some discussion of the ramifications,
because the requested file permissions are different in each case,
which is something that a single call to virFileOpenAs() can't deal
with.)
* Add a flag so that any fchown() of the file to a different uid:gid
is explicitly requested when the function is called, rather than it
being implied by the presence of the O_CREAT flag. This just makes
for less subtle surprises to consumers. (Commit
b1643dc15c added the check for O_CREAT
before forcing ownership. This patch just makes that restriction
more explicit.)
* If either the uid or gid is specified as "-1", virFileOpenAs will
interpret this to mean "the current [gu]id".
All current consumers of virFileOpenAs should retain their present
behavior (after a few minor changes to their setup code and
arguments).
The old virRandom() API was not generating good random numbers.
Replace it with a new API virRandomBits which instead of being
told the upper limit, gets told the number of bits of randomness
required.
* src/util/virrandom.c, src/util/virrandom.h: Add virRandomBits,
and move virRandomInitialize
* src/util/util.h, src/util/util.c: Delete virRandom and
virRandomInitialize
* src/libvirt.c, src/security/security_selinux.c,
src/test/test_driver.c, src/util/iohelper.c: Update for
changes from virRandom to virRandomBits
* src/storage/storage_backend_iscsi.c: Remove bogus call
to virRandomInitialize & convert to virRandomBits
Currently, we support only filling a volume with zeroes on wiping.
However, it is not enough as data might still be readable by
experienced and equipped attacker. Many technical papers have been
written, therefore we should support other wiping algorithms.
