When the session has expired then multiple threads can race while
reestablishing it.
This race condition is not that critical as it requires a special usage
pattern to be triggered. It can only happen when an application doesn't
do API calls for quite some time (the session expires after 30 min
inactivity) and then multiple threads doing simultaneous API calls and
end up doing simultaneous calls to esxVI_EnsureSession.
Change all the driver struct initializers to use the
C99 style, leaving out unused fields. This will make
it possible to add new APIs without changing every
driver. eg change:
qemudDomainResume, /* domainResume */
qemudDomainShutdown, /* domainShutdown */
NULL, /* domainReboot */
qemudDomainDestroy, /* domainDestroy */
to
.domainResume = qemudDomainResume,
.domainShutdown = qemudDomainShutdown,
.domainDestroy = qemudDomainDestroy,
And get rid of any existing C99 style initializersr which
set NULL, eg change
.listPools = vboxStorageListPools,
.numOfDefinedPools = NULL,
.listDefinedPools = NULL,
.findPoolSources = NULL,
.poolLookupByName = vboxStoragePoolLookupByName,
to
.listPools = vboxStorageListPools,

Several vSphere API methods are called on global objects like the
FileManager, the PerformanceManager or the SearchIndex. The generator
input file allows to mark such methods and the generator generates
such method in a way that automatically handles marked parameter. This
is done by some special macros. Those were manually written and this
patch moves them to the generator.
These VIR_XXXX0 APIs make us confused, use the non-0-suffix APIs instead.
How do these coversions works? The magic is using the gcc extension of ##.

This matches the public API and helps to get rid of some special
case code in the remote generator.
Rename driver API functions and XDR protocol structs.
No functional change included outside of the remote generator.
We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.
global rename performed with:
$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
| xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
Add missing early exits and convert error logging to proper API level

The ++ on preliminaryFileName was a left over from a previous version
of this function that explicitly returned the filename and did a strdup
on preliminaryFileName afterwards.
As the filename isn't returned explicitly anymore remove the preliminary

This was broken by the refactoring in ac1e6586ec. It resulted in a
segfault for 'virsh vol-dumpxml' and related volume functions.
Before the refactoring all users of the ESX_VI__TEMPLATE__DISPATCH
macro dispatched on the item type, as the item is the input to all those
functions.
Commit ac1e6586ec made the dynamically dispatched CastFromAnyType
functions use this macro too, but this functions dispatched on the
actual type of the AnyType object. The item is the output of the
CastFromAnyType functions.
This difference was missed in the refactoring, making CastFromAnyType
functions dereferencing the item pointer that is NULL at the time of
the dispatch.
This warnings come from partly generated code. Therefore, the best
solution is to mark them as potentially being unused using the
ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED macro. This is suggested by the gcc documentation.

Etienne Gosset reported that libvirt fails to connect to his ESX

contains an additional space and lacks one hexdigit in the last
group:
xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx- xxxxxxxxxxx
Don't treat this as a fatal error, just ignore it.
Use it in all places where a memory or storage request size is converted
to a larger granularity. This avoids requesting too small memory or storage
sizes that could result from the truncation done by a simple division.
This extends the round up fix in 6002e0406c
to the whole codebase.
Instead of reporting errors for odd values in the VMX code round them up.
Update the QEMU Argv tests accordingly as the original memory size 219200
isn't a even multiple of 1024 and is rounded up to 215 megabyte now. Change
it to 219100 and 219136. Use two different values intentionally to make
sure that rounding up works.
Update virsh.pod accordingly, as rounding down and rejecting are replaced
by rounding up.
Now the VMware driver doesn't depend on the ESX driver anymore.

Although this patch adds a distinction between maximum vcpus and

Since version 4.1 ESX(i) can expose virtual serial devices over TCP.
Add support in the VMX handling code for this, add test cases to cover
it and add links to some documentation.
ESX supports two additional protocols: TELNETS and TLS. Add them to
the list of serial-over-TCP protocols.
Before this commit SessionIsActive was not used because ESX(i)
doesn't implement it. vCenter supports SessionIsActive, so use
it here, but keep the fall back mechanism for ESX(i) and GSX.
QueryVirtualDiskUuid is only available on an ESX(i) server. vCenter
returns an NotImplemented fault and a GSX server is missing the
VirtualDiskManager completely. Therefore only use QueryVirtualDiskUuid
with an ESX(i) server and fall back to path as storage volume key for
vCenter and GSX server.
VirtualDisks are .vmdk file based. Other files in a datastore
like .iso or .flp files don't have a UUID attached, fall back
to the path as key for them.
Instead of splitting the path part of a datastore path into
directory and file name, keep this in one piece. An example:
"[datastore] directory/file"
was split into this before:
datastoreName = "datastore"
directoryName = "directory"
fileName = "file"
Now it's split into this:
datastoreName = "datastore"
directoryName = "directory"
directoryAndFileName = "directory/file"
This simplifies code using esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath, because
directoryAndFileName is used more often than fileName. Also the
old approach expected the datastore path to reference an actual
file, but this isn't always correct, especially when listing
volumes. In that case esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath is used to parse
a path that references a directory. This fails for a vpx://
connection because the vCenter returns directory paths with a
trailing '/'. The new approach is robust against this and the
actual decision if the datastore path should reference a file or
a directory is up to the caller of esxUtil_ParseDatastorePath.
Update the tests accordingly.
The check was altered in 8c48743b97
and got too strict, I've no clue how that snuck in. This check
makes every try to open a connection using the ESX driver fail
with an invalid argument error.
Revert the change to the check and add a comment to prevent future
mistakes with this check.
Instead of using one big traversal spec for lookup use a set of
more fine grained traversal specs that are selected based on the
actual needs of the lookup.
This gives up to 20% speedup for certain operations like domain
listing due to less HTTP(S) traffic.
With the previous storage pool UUID source not all storage pools
had a proper UUID, especially GSX storage pools. The mount path
is unique per host and cannot change during the lifetime of the
datastore. Therefore, it's MD5 sum can be used as UUID.
Use gnulib's crypto/md5 module to generate the MD5 sum.
In case an optional object cannot be found the lookup function is
left early and the cleanup code is not executed.
This pattern occurs in some other functions too.
floppy0.present defaults to true. Therefore, it needs to be
explicitly set to false when the XML config doesn't specify the
corresponding floppy device.
Also update tests accordingly.
For parsing try to match by datastore mount path first, if that
fails fallback to /vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> parsing. This
also fixes problems with GSX on Windows. Because GSX on Windows
doesn't use /vmfs/volumes/ style file names.
For formatting use the datastore mount path too, instead of using
/vmfs/volumes/<datastore>/<path> as fixed format.
Introduce esxVMX_Context containing functions pointers to
glue both parts together in a generic way.
Move the ESX specific part to esx_driver.c.
This is a step towards making the VMX code reusable in a
potential VMware Workstation and VMware Player driver.
Don't rely on summary.url anymore, because its value is different
between an esx:// and vpx:// connection. Use host.mountInfo.path
instead.
Don't fallback to lookup by UUID (actually lookup by absolute path)
in esxVI_LookupDatastoreByName when lookup by name fails. Add a
seperate function for this: esxVI_LookupDatastoreByAbsolutePath
Now a vpx:// connection has an explicitly specified host. This
allows to enabled several functions for a vpx:// connection
again, like host UUID, hostname, general node info, max vCPU
count, free memory, migration and defining new domains.
Lookup datacenter, compute resource, resource pool and host
system once and cache them. This simplifies the rest of the
code and reduces overall HTTP(S) traffic a bit.
esx:// and vpx:// can be mixed freely for a migration.
Ensure that migration source and destination refer to the
same vCenter. Also directly encode the resource pool and
host system object IDs into the migration URI in the prepare
function. Then directly build managed object references in
the perform function instead of re-looking up already known
information.
esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion can take a UUID to lookup the
corresponding domain and check if the current task for it
is blocked by a question. It calls another function to do
this: esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion looks up
the VirtualMachine and checks for a question. If there is
a question it calls esxVI_HandleVirtualMachineQuestion to
handle it.
If there was no question or it has been answered the call
to esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion returns 0.
If any error occurred during the lookup and answering
process -1 is returned. The problem with this is, that -1
is also returned when there was no error but the question
could not be answered. So esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion cannot
distinguish between this two situations and reports that a
question is blocking the task even when there was actually
another problem.
This inherent problem didn't surface until vSphere 4.1 when
you try to define a new domain. The driver tries to lookup
the domain that is just in the process of being registered.
There seems to be some kind of race condition and the driver
manages to issue a lookup command before the ESX server was
able to register the domain. This used to work before.
Due to the return value problem described above the driver
reported a false error message in that case.
To solve this esxVI_WaitForTaskCompletion now takes an
additional occurrence parameter that describes whether or
not to expect the domain to be existent. Also add a new
parameter to esxVI_LookupAndHandleVirtualMachineQuestion
that allows to distinguish if the call returned -1 because
of an actual error or because the question could not be
answered.
There is actually a difference between the character device type (serial,
parallel, channel, ...) and the target type (virtio, guestfwd). Currently
they are awkwardly conflated.
Start to pull them apart by renaming targetType -> deviceType. This is
an entirely mechanical change.

Add a pointer to the primary context of a connection and use it in all
driver functions that don't dependent on the context type. This includes
almost all functions that deal with a virDomianPtr. Therefore, using
a vpx:// connection allows you to perform all the usual domain related
actions like start, destroy, suspend, resume, dumpxml etc.
Some functions that require an explicitly specified ESX server don't work
yet. This includes the host UUID, the hostname, the general node info, the
max vCPU count and the free memory. Also not working yet are migration and
defining new domains.
Since 070f61002f the vcenter query
parameter has been ignored, because the refactoring to use
esxUtil_ParseQuery was incomplete. This effectively broke migration,
because the vcenter query parameter is essential for a migration.
Add the library entry point for the new virDomainQemuMonitorCommand()
entry point. Because this is not part of the "normal" libvirt API,
it gets its own header file, library file, and will eventually
get its own over-the-wire protocol later in the series.
Changes since v1:
- Go back to using the virDriver table for qemuDomainMonitorCommand, due to
linking issues
- Added versioning information to the libvirt-qemu.so
Changes since v2:
- None
Changes since v3:
- Add LGPL header to libvirt-qemu.c
- Make virLibConnError and virLibDomainError macros instead of function calls
Changes since v4:
- Move exported symbols to libvirt_qemu.syms

Also don't abuse the disk driver name to specify the SCSI controller
model anymore:
<driver name='buslogic'/>
Use the newly added model attribute of the controller element for this:
<controller type='scsi' index='0' model='buslogic'/>
The disk driver name approach is deprecated now, but still works for
backward compatibility reasons.
Update the documentation and tests accordingly.
Fix usage of the words controller and id in the VMX handling code. Use
controller, bus and unit properly.
The domain XML parsing code autogenerates disk address and
controller elements when they are not explicitly specified.
The code assumes a narrow SCSI bus (7 units per bus). ESX
uses a wide SCSI bus (16 units per bus).
This is a step towards controller support for the ESX driver.
Eliminate almost all backward jumps by replacing this common pattern:
int
some_random_function(void)
{
int result = 0;
...
cleanup:
<unconditional cleanup code>
return result;
failure:
<cleanup code in case of an error>
result = -1;
goto cleanup
}
with this simpler pattern:
int
some_random_function(void)
{
int result = -1;
...
result = 0;
cleanup:
if (result < 0) {
<cleanup code in case of an error>
}
<unconditional cleanup code>
return result;
}
Add a bool success variable in functions that don't have a int result
that can be used for the new pattern.
Also remove some unnecessary memsets in error paths.

An empty root snapshot list was considered as error condition. Creating a
new snapshot would fail if the domain didn't have snapshots yet, because
the snapshot-create function tries to lookup the list of existing snapshots
in order to verify that the snapshot name is unique. This fails if the
domain doesn't have snapshots yet.
Removing the NULL check from esxVI_LookupRootSnapshotTreeList fixes this.

The lsisas1068 SCSI controller type was added in ESX 4.0. The VMX

virDomainManagedSave() is to be run on a running domain. Once the call
complete, as in virDomainSave() the domain is stopped upon completion,
but there is no restore counterpart as any order to start the domain
from the API would load the state from the managed file, similary if
the domain is autostarted when libvirtd starts.
Once a domain has restarted his managed save image is destroyed,
basically managed save image can only exist for a stopped domain,
for a running domain that would be by definition outdated data.

virParseVersionString uses virStrToLong_ui instead of sscanf.
This also fixes a bug in the UML driver, that always returned 0

virStrToLong* guarantees (via strtol) that the end pointer will be set

The Python script generates the mappings based on the type descriptions
in the esx_vi_generator.input file.
This also improves the inheritance handling and allows to get rid of the
ugly, inflexible, and error prone _base/_super approach. Now every struct
that represents a SOAP type contains a _type member, that allows to

The current virDomainAttachDevice API can be (ab)used to change
the media of an existing CDROM/Floppy device. Going forward there
will be more devices that can be configured on the fly and overloading
virDomainAttachDevice for this is not too pleasant. This patch adds
a new virDomainUpdateDeviceFlags() explicitly just for modifying
existing devices.

The current API for domain events has a number of problems
- Only allows for domain lifecycle change events
- Does not allow the same callback to be registered multiple times
- Does not allow filtering of events to a specific domain
This introduces a new more general purpose domain events API
typedef enum {
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE = 0, /* virConnectDomainEventCallback */
...more events later..
}
int virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom, /* Optional, to filter */
int eventID,
virConnectDomainEventGenericCallback cb,
void *opaque,
virFreeCallback freecb);
int virConnectDomainEventDeregisterAny(virConnectPtr conn,
int callbackID);
Since different event types can received different data in the callback,
the API is defined with a generic callback. Specific events will each
have a custom signature for their callback. Thus when registering an
event it is neccessary to cast the callback to the generic signature
eg
int myDomainEventCallback(virConnectPtr conn,
virDomainPtr dom,
int event,
int detail,
void *opaque)
{
...
}
virConnectDomainEventRegisterAny(conn, NULL,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_LIFECYCLE,
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK(myDomainEventCallback)
NULL, NULL);
The VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_CALLBACK() macro simply does a "bad" cast
to the generic signature

If esxVI_String_DeepCopyValue or esxVI_SelectionSpec_AppendToList fail
then selectionSpec would leak. Add a free call in the failure path to
fix the leak.
This is actually a consequence of the reworked required parameter
checking: Unify the required parameter check into a Validate function
instead of doing it separately im the (de)serialization part.
The required parameter checking for the mapped methods parameter was
done in the (de)serialize functions before. Now it's explicitly done
in the mapped method itself.
Another warning caught by coverity. Continue to perform best-effort
closing and resource release, but warn the caller about the failure.

Currently only the faultcode and faultstring are deserialized, the
detail part is ignored. The implementation of many new SOAP types
would be necessary to deserialize the detail part correctly. As an
intermediate solution the raw response is dumped to the debug log.
The MAC addresses with 00:50:56 prefix are split into several ranges:
00:50:56:00:00:00 - 00:50:56:3f:ff:ff 'static' range (manually assigned)
00:50:56:80:00:00 - 00:50:56:bf:ff:ff 'vpx' range (assigned by a VI Client)
Erroneously the 'vpx' range was assumed to be larger and to occupy the
remaining addresses of the 00:50:56 prefix that are not part of the 'static'
range.
00:50:56 was used as prefix for generated MAC addresses, this is not possible
anymore, because there are gaps in the allowed ranges. Therefore, change the
prefix to 00:0c:29 which is the prefix for auto generated MAC addresses anyway.
Allow arbitrary MAC addresses to be used and set the checkMACAddress VMX option
to false in case the MAC address doesn't fall into any predefined range.
* docs/drvesx.html.in: update website accordingly
* src/esx/esx_driver.c: set the auto generation prefix to 00:0c:29
* src/esx/esx_vmx.c: fix MAC address range handling and allow arbitrary MAC

The data passed to the callback is not guaranteed to be zero terminated,
take care of that by coping the data and adding a zero terminator.
Also dump the data for other types than CURLINFO_TEXT.
Set CURLOPT_VERBOSE to 1 so the debug callback is called when enabled.
A domain with virtualHW version 4 is allowed on an ESX 4.0 server.
If a domain is migrated from an ESX 3.5 server to an ESX 4.0 server
then the virtualHW version stays the same. So a ESX 4.0 server can
host domains with virtualHW version 4.
Set up the types for the domainMemoryStats function and insert it into the
virDriver structure definition. Because of static initializers, update
every driver and set the new field to NULL.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: new API
* src/driver.h src/*/*_driver.c src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: add the new

If a virtual machine is destroyed on a ESX server then immediately
undefining this virtual machine on a vCenter may fail, because the
vCenter has not been informed about the status change yet. Therefore,
destroy a virtual machine on a vCenter if available, so the vCenter
is up-to-date when the virtual machine should be undefined.
Undefining a virtual machine on an ESX server leaves a orphan on the
vCenter behind. So undefine a virtual machine on a vCenter if available
to fix this problem.
If an ESX host is managed by a vCenter, it knows the IP address of the
vCenter. Setting the vCenter query parameter to * allows to connect to the
vCenter known to an ESX host without the need to specify its IP address
or hostname explicitly.
esxDomainLookupByUUID() and esxDomainIsActive() lookup a domain by asking
ESX for all known domains and searching manually for the one with the
matching UUID. This is inefficient. The VI API allows to lookup by UUID
directly: FindByUuid().
* src/esx/esx_driver.c: change esxDomainLookupByUUID() and esxDomainIsActive()
to use esxVI_LookupVirtualMachineByUuid(), also reorder some functions to
keep them in sync with the driver struct
Questions can block tasks, to handle them automatically the driver can answers
them with the default answer. The auto_answer query parameter allows to enable

Replace free(virBufferContentAndReset()) with virBufferFreeAndReset().
Update documentation and replace all remaining calls to free() with
calls to VIR_FREE(). Also add missing calls to virBufferFreeAndReset()

esxVMX_IndexToDiskName handles indices up to 701. This limit comes
from a mapping gap in virDiskNameToIndex:
sdzy -> 700
sdzz -> 701
sdaaa -> 728
sdaab -> 729
This line in virDiskNameToIndex causes this gap:
idx = (idx + i) * 26;
Fixing it by altering this line to:
idx = (idx + (i < 1 ? 0 : 1)) * 26;
Also add a new version of virIndexToDiskName that handles the inverse
mapping for arbitrary indices.
* src/esx/esx_vmx.[ch]: remove esxVMX_IndexToDiskName

VMware uses two MAC address prefixes: 00:0c:29 and 00:50:56. The 00:0c:29
prefix is used for ESX server generated addresses. The 00:50:56 prefix is
split into two parts. MAC addresses above 00:50:56:3f:ff:ff are generated
by a vCenter. The rest of the 00:50:56 prefix can be assigned manually.
Any MAC address within the 00:0c:29 and 00:50:56 prefix can be specified
in a domain XML config and the driver will handle the details internally.

There is currently no way to determine the libvirt version of a remote
libvirtd we are connected to. This is a useful piece of data to enable
feature detection.
Introduce a number of new APIs to expose some boolean properties
of objects, which cannot otherwise reliably determined, nor are
aspects of the XML configuration.
* virDomainIsActive: Checking virDomainGetID is not reliable
since it is not possible to distinguish between error condition
and inactive domain for ID of -1.
* virDomainIsPersistent: Check whether a persistent config exists
for the domain
* virNetworkIsActive: Check whether the network is active
* virNetworkIsPersistent: Check whether a persistent config exists
for the network
* virStoragePoolIsActive: Check whether the storage pool is active
* virStoragePoolIsPersistent: Check whether a persistent config exists
for the storage pool
* virInterfaceIsActive: Check whether the host interface is active
* virConnectIsSecure: whether the communication channel to the
hypervisor is secure
* virConnectIsEncrypted: whether any network based commnunication
channels are encrypted
NB, a channel can be secure, even if not encrypted, eg if it does
not involve the network, like a UNIX socket, or pipe.

A character device's target (it's interface in the guest) had only a
single property: port. This patch is in preparation for adding targets
which require other properties.
Since this changes the conf type for character devices this affects
a number of drivers:
* src/conf/domain_conf.[ch] src/esx/esx_vmx.c src/qemu/qemu_conf.c
src/qemu/qemu_driver.c src/uml/uml_conf.c src/uml/uml_driver.c
src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c src/xen/xend_internal.c src/xen/xm_internal.c:
target properties are moved into a union in virDomainChrDef, and a
targetType field is added to identify which union member should be
used. All current code which touches a virDomainChrDef is updated both
to use the new union field, and to populate targetType if necessary.
If an error occurs between the allocation of an item and appending it
to the list, the item leaks. Free such orphaned items in error cases.
* src/esx/esx_vi.c: free orphaned items in error cases
The default transport for the VI API is HTTPS. If the server redirects
from HTTPS to HTTP the driver would silently follow that redirection.
The user assumes to communicate with the server over a secure transport
but isn't.
This patch disables automatical redirection following. The driver reports
an error if the server tries to redirect.
* src/esx/esx_vi.c: refactor the call to curl_easy_perform() into a
function and do error handling there, disable automatical redirection
following for curl
* src/esx/esx_vi.h: change the type of responseCode to int
Unified function naming scheme:
- 'lookup' functions query the ESX or vCenter for information
- 'get' functions return information from a local object
* src/esx/esx_driver.c, src/esx/esx_vi.[ch]: unify function naming
In order to register a new virtual machine the ESX driver needs to upload
a VMX file to a datastore. Try to put this file beside the main VMDK file
of the virtual machine. Change the disk selection for datastore detection
to choose the first file-based harddisk instead of just the first disk.
The first disk may be a CDROM disk and ISO images are normaly not located
in the virtual machine's directory.
* src/esx/esx_driver.c: change disk selection for datastore detection
This allows to use domain-xml-from-native with VMX files that reference

Add the virStrncpy function, which takes a dst string, source string,
the number of bytes to copy and the number of bytes available in the
dest string. If the source string is too large to fit into the
destination string, including the \0 byte, then no data is copied and
the function returns NULL. Otherwise, this function copies n bytes
from source into dst, including the \0, and returns a pointer to the
dst string. This function is intended to replace all unsafe uses
of strncpy in the code base, since strncpy does *not* guarantee that
the buffer terminates with a \0.
