We have seen an issue on s390x platform where domain XMLs larger than 1MB
were used. The define command was finished successfully. The dumpxml command
was not successful (i.e. could not encode message payload).
Enlarged message related sizes (e.g. maximum string size, message size, etc.)
to handle larger system configurations used on s390x platform.
To improve handling of the RPC message size the allocation during encode process
is changed to a dynamic one (i.e. starting with 64kB initial size and increasing
that size in steps up to 16MB if the payload data is larger).

The F_DUPFD_CLOEXEC operation with fcntl() expects a single
int argument, specifying the minimum FD number for the newly
dup'd file descriptor. We were not specifying that causing
random stack data to be accessed as the FD number. Sometimes
that worked, sometimes it didn't.

If an early dispatch check caused a jump to the 'cleanup' branch
then virTypeParamsFree() would be called with an uninitialized
'nparams' variable. Fortunately 'params' is initialized to NULL,
so the uninitialized 'nparams' variable would not be used.

The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
Ensure that all drivers implementing public APIs use a
naming convention for their implementation that matches
the public API name.
eg for the public API virDomainCreate make sure QEMU
uses qemuDomainCreate and not qemuDomainStart

Currently the RPC protocol files can contain annotations after
the protocol enum eg
REMOTE_PROC_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_LIST_CHILDREN_NAMES = 247, /* autogen autogen priority:high */
This is not very extensible as the number of annotations grows.
Change it to use
/**
* @generate: both
* @priority: high
*/

Despite the comment stating virNetClientIncomingEvent handler should
never be called with either client->haveTheBuck or client->wantClose
set, there is a sequence of events that may lead to both booleans being
true when virNetClientIncomingEvent is called. However, when that
happens, we must not immediately close the socket as there are other
threads waiting for the buck and they would cause SIGSEGV once they are
woken up after the socket was closed. Another thing is we should clear
all remaining calls in the queue after closing the socket.
The situation that can lead to the crash involves three threads, one of
them running event loop and the other two calling libvirt APIs. The
event loop thread detects an event on client->sock and calls
virNetClientIncomingEvent handler. But before the handler gets a chance
to lock client, the other two threads (T1 and T2) start calling some
APIs. T1 gets the buck and detects EOF on client->sock while processing
its RPC call. Since T2 is waiting for its own call, T1 passes the buck
on to it and unlocks client. But before T2 gets the signal, the event
loop thread wakes up, does its job and closes client->sock. The crash
happens when T2 actually wakes up and tries to do its job using a closed
client->sock.
but libvirt is built with --with-selinux. In this case getpeercon
returns ENOPROTOOPT so don't return an error in that case but simply
don't set seccon.
The virNetSocket & virIdentity classes accidentally got some
conditionals using HAVE_SELINUX instead of WITH_SELINUX.

The naming used in the RPC protocols for the LXC monitor and
lock daemon confused the script used to generate systemtap
helper functions. Rename the LXC monitor protocol symbols to
reduce confusion. Adapt the gensystemtap.pl script to cope
with the LXC monitor / lock daemon naming conversions.
This has no functional impact on RPC wire protocol, since
names are only used in the C layer

When converting to virObject, the probes on the 'Free' functions
were removed on the basis that there is a probe on virObjectFree
that suffices. This puts a burden on people writing probe scripts

Don't allow interval to be > MAX_INT/1000 in virKeepAliveStart()
Guard against possible overflow in virKeepAliveTimeout() by setting the
timeout to be MAX_INT/1000 since the math following will multiply it by 1000.
We need to drop the server lock before calling virObjectUnlock(client)
since in case we had the last reference to the client, its dispose
callback would be called and that could possibly try to lock the server
and cause a deadlock. This is exactly what happens when there is only
one QEMU domain running and it is marked to be autodestroyed when the
connection dies. This results in qemuProcessAutoDestroy ->
qemuProcessStop -> virNetServerRemoveShutdownInhibition call sequence,
where the last function locks the server.
Like virNodeDeviceCreateXML, virNodeDeviceLookupSCSIHostByWWN
has to be treated specially when generating the RPC codes. Also
new rules are added in fixup_name to keep the name SCSIHostByWWN.
This patch resolves CVE-2013-0170:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=893450
When reading and dispatching of a message failed the message was freed
but wasn't removed from the message queue.
After that when the connection was about to be closed the pointer for
the message was still present in the queue and it was passed to
virNetMessageFree which tried to call the callback function from an
uninitialized pointer.
This patch removes the message from the queue before it's freed.

- avoid use after free of RPC messages
The code is not reachable as of commit id: bb85f229. Removed

anything but NULL at the cleanup label.

Check status when attempting to set SO_REUSEADDR flag on outgoing connection
On failure, VIR_WARN(), but continue to connect. This code path is on the
sender side where the setting is just a hint and would only take effect if
the sender is overflowed with TCP connections. Inability to set doesn't mean
failure to establish a connection.
Currently all classes must directly inherit from virObject.
This allows for arbitrarily deep hierarchy. There's not much
to this aside from chaining up the 'dispose' handlers from
each class & providing APIs to check types.
