Switch from using write() to using sendmsg() on QEMU's monitor socket
so that we can add support for SCM_RIGHTS.
* src/qemu_driver.c: add sendmsg() based qemudMonitorSendUnix() and use
it when the monitor fd is a unix socket
Add a little helper function to write the monitor command followed by
carriage return in a single write.
This doesn't make any real difference, but allows us to more easily
switch to using sendmsg() when using the monitor over a unix socket.
* src/qemu_conf.c: split qemudMonitorSend() out
In subsequent patches we're going to have a file descriptor to close
too, so centralize the error handling cleanups to make things easier.
* src/qemu_conf.c: in qemudDomainAttachNetDevice() consolidate the
error handling cleanups together
With hotplug, we're going to want to pass a tapfd name rather than an
actual file descriptor, so prepare the way by passing a string tapfd to
qemuBuildHostNetStr().
* src/qemu_conf.h: qemuBuildHostNetStr() takes a string tapfd now
* src/qemu_conf.c: pass qemuBuildHostNetStr() a string rather than an
actual file descriptor
* src/qemu_driver.c: update qemudDomainAttachNetDevice() for change
* src/qemu_conf.h: export qemudNetworkIfaceConnect()
* src/qemu_conf.c: move vnet_hdr logic into qemudNetworkIfaceConnect()
since we need it for hotplug too
By probing for qemu machine types, we increased the time of a
GetCapabilities call from 100us to a whopping 60ms.
This patch takes the approach of only probing for machine types
when the mtime of the emulator binary changed since the last time
the capabilities were generated.
* src/capabilities.h: cache the emulator binary mtime
* src/qemu_conf.c: add qemudGetOldMachines() to copy the machine
types from the old caps struct if the mtime for the binary hasn't
changed
* src/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu_driver.c: pass the old caps pointer to
qemudCapsInit()
e.g. <machine canonical='pc'>pc-0.11</machine>
* src/capabilities.c: output the canonical machine names in the
capabilities output, if available
* docs/schemas/capabilities.rng: add the new attribute
Not all possible emulators are actually in the capabilities, so if we
don't find the supplied emulator we should probe it directly for machine
types.
* src/qemu_driver.c: add qemudCanonicalizeMachineDirect() to directly
probe an emulator for the canonical machine type
In qemu-0.11 there is a 'pc-0.10' machine type which allows you to run
guests with a machine which is compatible with the pc machine in
qemu-0.10 - e.g. using the original PCI class for virtio-blk and
virtio-console and disabling MSI support in virtio-net. The idea here
is that we don't want to suprise guests by changing the hardware when
qemu is updated.
I've just posted some patches for qemu-0.11 which allows libvirt to
canonicalize the 'pc' machine alias to the latest machine version.
This patches makes us use that so that when a guest is configured to
use the 'pc' machine type, we resolve that to 'pc-0.11' machine and
save that in the guest XML.

* src/qemu_conf.c: add qemudCanonicalizeMachine() to canonicalize
the machine type according to the machine aliases in capabilities
* src/qemu_driver.c: parse aliases in qemudParseMachineTypesStr()
A subsequent commit will add a "canonical" field to this structure,
this patch basically just prepares the way for that.
The new type is added, along with virCapabilitiesAlloc/FreeMachines()
helpers and a whole bunch of code to make the transition.
One quirk is that virCapabilitiesAddGuestDomain() and
virCapabilitiesAddGuest() take ownership of the machine list rather
than duping it. This makes sense to avoid needless copying.
* src/capabilities.h: add the virCapsGuestMachine struct and use it
in virCapsGuestDomainInfo, add prototypes for new functions and
update the AddGuest() prototypes
* src/capabilities.c: add code for allocating and freeing the new
type, change the machines parameter to AddGuest() etc.
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export the new helpers
* src/qemu_conf.c: update all the machine type code to use the new
struct
* src/xen_internal.c: ditto
* tests/testutilsqemu.c: ditto
Currently we hardcode the QEMU machine types. We should really just
parse the output of 'qemu -M ?' so the lists don't get out of sync.
xenner doesn't support '-M ?', so we still need to hardcode that.
The horrible (const char *const *) is removed in a subsequent patch.
* src/qemu_conf.c: kill the arch_info*machines tables, retain the
hardcoded xenner machine type, add qemudProbeMachineTypes() to
run and parse 'qemu -M ?' and use it in qemudCapsInitGuest()
There's no need for the hasbase/hasaltbase confusion, just store the
first binary path found in a variable.
* src/qemu_conf.c: kill hasbase/hasaltbase logic in qemudCapsInitGuest()
* src/esx/esx_driver.c src/esx/esx_vi.c src/esx/esx_vi.h
src/esx/esx_vmx.c src/esx/esx_vmx.h: extend the VI API version checks
to accept version 4.0 and takes care of the virtualHW.version change
from 4 to 7.
* src/esx/esx_driver.c src/esx/esx_util.c src/esx/esx_util.h
src/esx/esx_vi.c src/esx/esx_vi.h: adds a no_verify query parameter to
stop libcurl from verifying theserver certificate for the https
transport.
Do the check in libvirt.c, to save drivers from the burden. This changes
behavior slightly in the qemu driver: we no longer explictly error if
passed an empty string. An error will still be thrown when the device
lookup fails.
* src/vbox/vbox_driver.c: remove some old 2.5 switches and plug the
3.0 driver
* src/vbox/vbox_V3_0.c src/vbox/vbox_CAPI_v3_0.h: the driver for
VirtualBox 3.0
* src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: handle the new driver and add event support
* src/Makefile.am: plug in the new module
Features supported:
- Connects to HMC/VIOS or IVM systems.
- Life cycle commands (resume and shutdown).
- dumpxml
- 'list' and 'list --all'
What is being implemented:
- better and centralized control for UUID
- definexml
- CPU management commands
* src/domain_conf.c src/domain_conf.h: first version of the driver
* configure.in src/Makefile.am include/libvirt/virterror.h
src/domain_conf.[ch] src/libvirt.c src/virterror.c: glue the driver
in the general framework
* src/esx/esx_*.[ch]: the driver, uses a remote minimal SOAP client
to talk to the VI services on ESX nodes.
* configure.in include/libvirt/virterror.h src/Makefile.am src/driver.h
src/libvirt.c src/virterror.c: glue in the new driver
* qemud/libvirtd_qemu.aug, qemud/test_libvirtd_qemu.aug,
src/qemu.conf: Add 'cgroups_controllers' and 'cgroups_device_acl'
parameters
* src/qemu_conf.h, src/qemu_conf.c: Load & parse configuration params
for cgroups
* src/qemu_driver.c: Only use cgroups controllers that are activated,
and use configured device whitelist instead of default, if set.
* src/qemu_driver.c: Set a restrictive block device whitelist for
all QEMU guests. Update whitelist when hotplugging disks.
* src/cgroup.h, src/cgroup.c: Add some more convenience methods
for dealing with block device whitelists.
* src/qemu_driver.c: Add driver methods qemuGetSchedulerType,
qemuGetSchedulerParameters, qemuSetSchedulerParameters
* src/lxc_driver.c: Fix to use unsigned long long consistently
for schedular parameters
* src/cgroup.h, src/cgroup.c: Fix cpu_shares to take unsigned
long long
* src/util.c, src/util.h, src/libvirt_private.syms: Add a
virStrToDouble helper
* src/virsh.c: Fix handling of --set arg to schedinfo command
to honour the designated data type of each schedular tunable
as declared by the driver
Allow the driver level cgroup to be managed explicitly by the
hypervisor drivers, in order to detect whether to enable or
disable cgroup support for domains. Provides better error
reporting of failures. Also allow for creation of cgroups for
unprivileged drivers if controller is accessible by the user.
* src/cgroup.c, src/cgroup.h: Add an API to obtain a driver cgroup
* src/lxc_conf.h, src/lxc_controller.c, src/lxc_driver.c:
Obtain a driver cgroup at startup and use that instead of
re-creating everytime.
* src/util.c, src/util.h, src/libvirt_private.syms: Add a
virGetUserName() helper
* src/cgroup.c: Detect the mount location of every controller at
time a virCgroupPtr is created. Detect current process' placement
within group to avoid assuming it is in the root. Pass controller
ID into SetValueStr/GetValueStr to enable much duplicated code to
be eliminated
* src/datatypes.c src/domain_conf.c src/interface_conf.c
src/lxc_driver.c src/qemu_driver.c src/storage_backend.c src/virsh.c:
add bare %s format string to printf-derivatives called with no format
string
GCC >= 4.4 assumes the 'printf' attribute refers to the native
runtime libraries format specifiers. Thanks to gnulib, libvirt
has GNU format specifiers everywhere. This means we need to
use 'gnu_printf' with GCC >= 4.4 to get correct compiler
checking of printf format specifiers.
* HACKING: Document new rules for ATTRIBUTE_FMT_PRINTF
* autobuild.sh, mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Disable OpenNebula
driver on mingw32 builds
* qemud/dispatch.h, qemud/qemu.h, src/buf.h src/internal.h,
src/logging.h, src/security.h, src/sexpr.h, src/util.h,
src/virterror_internal.h, src/xend_internal.c: Change
over to ATTRIBUTE_FMT_PRINTF.
* src/virsh.c: Disable 'cd' and 'pwd' commands on Win32
since they don't compile
* src/threads-win32.c: Add missing return value check
If the qemu binary supports "-no-kvm" and/or "-no-kqemu", they should
always be added for plain "qemu" domains. Previously, we omitted them
whenever the host and guest architectures implied that they would be
disabled automatically, but that logic was flawed in some cases
(such as i686 and x86_64).
* src/qemu_conf.c: fix the conditions for adding "-no-kvm" and/or "-no-kqemu"
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: adds the new
flag VIR_MEMORY_PHYSICAL for virDomainMemoryPeek
* src/libvirt.c: update the front-end checking
* src/qemu_driver.c: extend the QEmu driver
