Adding audit points showed that we were granting too much privilege

For qemu names the primary vga as "qxl-vga":
1) if vram is specified for 2nd qxl device:
-vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size=$SIZE \
-device qxl,id=video1,vram_size=$SIZE,...
2) if vram is not specified for 2nd qxl device, (use the default
set by global):
-vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size=$SIZE \
-device qxl,id=video1,...
For qemu names all qxl devices as "qxl":
1) if vram is specified for 2nd qxl device:
-vga qxl -global qxl.vram_size=$SIZE \
-device qxl,id=video1,vram_size=$SIZE ...
2) if vram is not specified for 2nd qxl device:
-vga qxl -global qxl-vga.vram_size=$SIZE \
-device qxl,id=video1,...
"-global" is the only way to define vram_size for the primary qxl
device, regardless of how qemu names it, (It's not good a good
way, as original idea of "-global" is to set a global default for
a driver property, but to specify vram for first qxl device, we
have to use it).
For other qxl devices, as they are represented by "-device", could
specify it directly and seperately for each, and it overrides the
default set by "-global" if specified.
v1 - v2:
* modify "virDomainVideoDefaultRAM" so that it returns 16M as the
default vram_size for qxl device.
* vram_size * 1024 (qemu accepts bytes for vram_size).
* apply default vram_size for qxl device for which vram_size is
not specified.
* modify "graphics-spice" tests (more sensiable vram_size)
* Add an argument of virDomainDefPtr type for qemuBuildVideoDevStr,
to use virDomainVideoDefaultRAM in qemuBuildVideoDevStr).
v2 - v3:
* Modify default video memory size for qxl device from 16M to 24M
* Update codes to be consistent with changes on qemu_capabilities.*

An EOF on a domain's monitor socket results in an event being queued
to handle the EOF. The handler calls qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF. If
it is a transient domain, this leads to a call to
virDomainRemoveInactive, which removes the domain from the driver's
hashtable and unref's it. Nowhere in this code is the qemu driver lock
acquired.
However, all modifications to the driver's domain hashtable *must* be
done while holding the driver lock, otherwise the hashtable can become
corrupt, and (even more likely) another thread could call a different
hashtable function and acquire a pointer to the domain that is in the
process of being destroyed.
To prevent such a disaster, qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF must get the
qemu driver lock *before* it gets the DomainObj's lock, and hold it
until it is finished with the DomainObj. This guarantees that nobody
else modifies the hashtable at the same time, and that anyone who had
already gotten the DomainObj from the hashtable prior to this call has
finished with it before we remove/destroy it.
This was found while researching the root cause of:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=670848
virDomainUnref should only be called with the lock held for the
virDomainObj in question. However, when a transient qemu domain gets
EOF on its monitor socket, it queues an event which frees the monitor,
which unref's the virDomainObj without first locking it. If another
thread has already locked the virDomainObj, the modification of the
refcount could potentially be corrupted. In an extreme case, it could
also be potentially unlocked by virDomainObjFree, thus left open to
modification by anyone else who would have otherwise waited for the
lock (not to mention the fact that they would be accessing freed
data!).
The solution is to have qemuMonitorFree lock the domain object right
before unrefing it. Since the caller to qemuMonitorFree doesn't expect
this lock to be held, if the refcount doesn't go all the way to 0,
qemuMonitorFree must unlock it after the unref.
In virFileOperation, the parent does a fallback to a non-fork

child to parent.

This fixes a possible crash of libvirtd during its startup. When qemu
driver reconnects to running domains, it iterates over all domain
objects in a hash. When reconnecting to an associated qemu monitor
fails and the domain is transient, it's immediately removed from the
hash. Despite the fact that it's explicitly forbidden to do so. If
libvirtd is lucky enough, virHashForEach will access random memory when
the callback finishes and the deamon will crash.
Since it's trivial to fix virHashForEach to allow removal of hash
entries while iterating through them, I went this way instead of fixing
qemuReconnectDomain callback (and possibly others) to avoid deleting the
entries.
qemudDomainSaveImageStartVM was evil - it closed the incoming fd

The virConnectPtr struct will cache instances of all other
objects. APIs like virDomainLookupByUUID will return a
cached object, so if you do virDomainLookupByUUID twice in
a row, you'll get the same exact virDomainPtr instance.
This does not have any performance benefit, since the actual
logic in virDomainLookupByUUID (and other APIs returning
virDomainPtr, etc instances) is not short-circuited. All
it does is to ensure there is only one single virDomainPtr
in existance for any given UUID.
The caching has a number of downsides though, all relating
to stale data. If APIs aren't careful to always overwrite
the 'id' field in virDomainPtr it may become out of data.
Likewise for the name field, if a guest is renamed, or if
a guest is deleted, and then a new one created with the
same UUID but different name.
This has been an ongoing, endless source of bugs for all
applications using libvirt from languages with garbage
collection, causing them to get virDomainPtr instances
from long ago with stale data.
The caching is also a waste of memory resources, since
both applications, and language bindings often maintain
their own hashtable caches of object instances.
This patch removes all the hash table caching, so all
APIs return brand new virDomainPtr (etc) object instances.
* src/datatypes.h: Delete all hash tables.

There were several occurrences of an extra space inserted between
a function name and the ( opening the argument list in
datatypes.c. This is not consistent with the coding style used in
the rest of this file so removing this extra space makes the
code slightly more readable.
Now that the virHash handling functions call virReportOOMError by
themselves when needed, users of the virHash API no longer need to
do it by themselves. Since users of the virHash API were not
consistently calling virReportOOMError after memory failures from
the virHash code, this has the added benefit of making OOM
reporting from this code more consistent and reliable.
The only difference between these 2 functions is that one errors
out when the entry is already present while the other modifies
the existing entry. Add an helper function with a boolean argument
indicating whether existing entries should be updated or not, and
use this helper in both functions.
The code in virHashUpdateEntry and virHashAddEntry is really
similar. However, the latter rebalances the hash table when
one of its buckets contains too many elements while the former
does not. Fix this discrepancy.

The problem was that, since a bridge always acquires the MAC address
of the connected interface with the numerically lowest MAC, as guests
are started and stopped, it was possible for the MAC address to change
over time, and this change in the network was being detected by
Windows 7 (it sees the MAC of the default route change), so on each
reboot it would bring up a dialog box asking about this "new network".
The solution is to create a dummy tap interface with a MAC guaranteed
to be lower than any guest interface's MAC, and attach that tap to the
bridge as soon as it's created. Since all guest MAC addresses start
with 0xFE, we can just generate a MAC with the standard "0x52, 0x54,
0" prefix, and it's guaranteed to always win (physical interfaces are
never connected to these bridges, so we don't need to worry about
competing numerically with them).
Note that the dummy tap is never set to IFF_UP state - that's not
necessary in order for the bridge to take its MAC, and not setting it
to UP eliminates the clutter of having an (eg) "virbr0-nic" displayed
in the output of the ifconfig command.
I chose to not auto-generate the MAC address in the network XML
parser, as there are likely to be consumers of that API that don't
need or want to have a MAC address associated with the
bridge.
Instead, in bridge_driver.c when the network is being defined, if
there is no MAC, one is generated. To account for virtual network
configs that already exist when upgrading from an older version of
libvirt, I've added a %post script to the specfile that searches for
all network definitions in both the config directory
(/etc/libvirt/qemu/networks) and the state directory
(/var/lib/libvirt/network) that are missing a mac address, generates a
random address, and adds it to the config (and a matching address to
the state file, if there is one).

An upcoming patch has a use for a tap device to be created that
doesn't need to be actually put into the "up" state, and keeping it
"down" keeps the output of ifconfig from being unnecessarily cluttered
(ifconfig won't show down interfaces unless you add "-a").

Explanation
qemu's virtio-net-pci driver allows setting the algorithm used for tx
packets to either "bh" or "timer". This is done by adding ",tx=bh" or
",tx=timer" to the "-device virtio-net-pci" commandline option.
'bh' stands for 'bottom half'; when this is set, packet tx is all done
in an iothread in the bottom half of the driver. (In libvirt, this
option is called the more descriptive "iothread".)
'timer' means that tx work is done in qemu, and if there is more tx
data than can be sent at the present time, a timer is set before qemu
moves on to do other things; when the timer fires, another attempt is
made to send more data. (libvirt retains the name "timer" for this
option.)
The resulting difference, according to the qemu developer who added
the option is:
bh makes tx more asynchronous and reduces latency, but potentially
causes more processor bandwidth contention since the cpu doing the
tx isn't necessarily the cpu where the guest generated the
packets.
Solution
This patch provides a libvirt domain xml knob to change the option on
the qemu commandline, by adding a new attribute "txmode" to the
<driver> element that can be placed inside any <interface> element in
a domain definition. It's use would be something like this:
<interface ...>
...
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver txmode='iothread'/>
...
</interface>
I chose to put this setting as an attribute to <driver> rather than as
a sub-element to <tune> because it is specific to the virtio-net
driver, not something that is generally usable by all network drivers.
(note that this is the same placement as the "driver name=..."
attribute used to choose kernel vs. userland backend for the
virtio-net driver.)
Actually adding the tx=xxx option to the qemu commandline is only done
if the version of qemu being used advertises it in the output of
qemu -device virtio-net-pci,?
If a particular txmode is requested in the XML, and the option isn't
listed in that help output, an UNSUPPORTED_CONFIG error is logged, and
the domain fails to start.
When the <driver> element (and its "name" attribute) was added to the
domain XML's interface element, a "backend" enum was simply added to
the toplevel of the virDomainNetDef struct.
Ignoring the naming inconsistency ("name" vs. "backend"), this is fine
when there's only a single item contained in the driver element of the
XML, but doesn't scale well as we add more attributes that apply to
the backend of the virtio-net driver, or add attributes applicable to
other drivers.
This patch changes virDomainNetDef in two ways:
1) Rename the item in the struct from "backend" to "name", so that
it's the same in the XML and in the struct, hopefully avoiding
confusion for someone unfamiliar with the function of the
attribute.
2) Create a "driver" union within virDomainNetDef, and a "virtio"
struct in that struct, which contains the "name" enum value.
3) Move around the virDomainNetParse and virDomainNetFormat functions
to allow for simple plugin of new attributes without disturbing
existing code. (you'll note that this results in a seemingly
redundant if() in the format function, but that will no longer be
the case as soon as a 2nd attribute is added).
In the future, new attributes for the virtio driver backend can be
added to the "virtio" struct, and any other network device backend that
needs an attribute will have its own struct added to the "driver"
union.
The introduction of the v3 migration protocol, along with
support for migration cookies, will significantly expand
the size of the migration code. Move it all to a separate
file to make it more manageable
The functions are not moved 100%. The API entry points
remain in the main QEMU driver, but once the public
virDomainPtr is resolved to the internal virDomainObjPtr,
all following code is moved.
This will allow the new v3 API entry points to call into the
same shared internal migration functions
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c, src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add
qemuDomainFormatXML helper method
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove all migration code
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/qemu/qemu_migration.h: Add
all migration code.
Move the qemudStartVMDaemon and qemudShutdownVMDaemon
methods into a separate file, renaming them to
qemuProcessStart, qemuProcessStop. All helper methods
called by these are also moved & renamed to match
* src/Makefile.am: Add qemu_process.c/.h
* src/qemu/qemu_command.c: Add qemuDomainAssignPCIAddresses
* src/qemu/qemu_command.h: Add VNC port min/max
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c, src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add
domain event queue helpers
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.h: Remove
all QEMU process startup/shutdown functions
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c, src/qemu/qemu_process.h: Add
all QEMU process startup/shutdown functions

- New function "virIsDevMapperDevice" in "src/utils/utils.c"
- remove "is_dm_device" in "src/storage/parthelper.c", use
"virIsDevMapperDevice" instead.
- Requires "device-mapper" for 'with-storage-disk" in "libvirt.spec.in"
- Check "dmsetup" in 'configure.ac' for "with-storage-disk"
- Changes on "src/Makefile.am" to link against libdevmapper
- New entry for "virIsDevMapperDevice" in "src/libvirt_private.syms"
Changes from v1 to v3:
- s/virIsDeviceMapperDevice/virIsDevMapperDevice/g
- replace "virRun" with "virCommand"
- sort the list of util functions in "libvirt_private.syms"
- ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL(1) for virIsDevMapperDevice declaration.

"qemudDomainSaveFlag" goto wrong label "endjob", which will cause
error when security manager trying to restore label (regression).
As it's more reasonable to check if vm is shutoff immediately, and
return right away if it is, remove the checking in "qemudDomainSaveFlag",
and add checking in "qemudDomainSave".
