ede89aab64 security: Don't ignore errors when parsing DAC security labels
The DAC security driver silently ignored errors when parsing the DAC
label and used default values instead.

With a domain containing the following label definition:

<seclabel type='static' model='dac' relabel='yes'>
  <label>sdfklsdjlfjklsdjkl</label>
</seclabel>

the domain would start normaly but the disk images would be still owned
by root and no error was displayed.

This patch changes the behavior if the parsing of the label fails (note
that a not present label is not a failure and in this case the default
label should be used) the error isn't masked but is raised that causes
the domain start to fail with a descriptive error message:

virsh #  start tr
error: Failed to start domain tr
error: internal error invalid argument: failed to parse DAC seclabel
'sdfklsdjlfjklsdjkl' for domain 'tr'

I also changed the error code to "invalid argument" from "internal
error" and tweaked the various error messages to contain correct and
useful information.

8c95290868 qemu: Cleanup boot parameter building
This patch cleans up building the "-boot" parameter and while on that
fixes one inconsistency by modifying these things:

 - I completed the unfinished virDomainBootMenu enum by specifying
   LAST, declaring it and also declaring the TypeFromString and
   TypeToString parameters.
 - Previously mentioned TypeFromString and TypeToString are used when
   parsing the XML.
 - Last, but not least, visible change is that the "-boot" parameter
   is built and parsed properly:
    - The "order=" prefix is used only when additional parameters are
      used (menu, etc.).
    - It's rewritten in a way that other parameters can be added
      easily in the future (used in following patch).
    - The "order=" parameter is properly parsed regardless to where it
      is placed in the string (e.g. "menu=on,order=nc").
    - The "menu=" parameter (and others in the future) are created
      when they should be (i.e. even when bootindex is supported and
      used, but not when bootloader is selected).

a5e8beef4f qemu: Transition domain to PAUSED after 'stop' command
Currently, we mark domain PAUSED (but not emit an event)
just before we issue 'stop' on monitor; This command can
take ages to finish, esp. when domain's doing a lot of
IO - users can enforce qemu to open files with O_DIRECT
which doesn't return from write() until data reaches the
block device. Having said that, we report PAUSED even if
domain is not paused yet.

db8760ffe6 network: fix element size / length in memmove
The memmove to move elements in the dhcp hosts array when inserting
and deleting items was mistakenly basing the length of the copy on the
size of a virNetworkDHCPHostDefPtr rather than virNetworkDHCPHostDef,
with the expected disastrous results.

The memmove to delete an entry commits two errors - along with the
size of each element being wrong, it also omits some required
parentheses.

01ab659994 network: fix incorrect VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_* values
These enums originally were put into the flags for virNetworkUpdate,
and when they were moved into their own enum, the numbers weren't
appropriately changed, causing the commands to start with value 2
instead of 1. This causes problems for things like ENUM_IMPL, which
wants a string for every value in the requested range, including those
not used in the enum.

b95ad92e05 build: define WITH_INTERFACE for the driver
Based exclusively on work by Eric Blake in a patch posted with the same
subject. However some modifications related to comments and my plans to
add another backend.

Added WITH_INTERFACE as the only automake variable deciding whether to
build the driver and using WITH_NETCF to identify that we're wanting to
use the netcf library as the backend.

* configure.ac: Added with_interface
* src/interface/netcf_driver.c: Renamed..
* src/interface/interface_backend_netcf.c: ..to this to match storage.
* src/interface/netcf_driver.h: Renamed..
* src/interface/interface_driver.h: ..to this.
* daemon/Makefile.am: Respect WITH_INTERFACE and WITH_NETCF.
* libvirt.spec.in: Add RPM support for --with-interface

fd66ea669c bitmap: fix problems in previous commit
Commit ee3d3893 missed the fact that (unsigned char)<<(int)
is truncated to int, and therefore failed for any bitmap data
longer than four bytes.

Also, I failed to run 'make syntax-check' on my commit 4bba6579;
for whatever odd reason, ffs lives in a different header than ffsl.

* src/util/bitmap.c (virBitmapNewData): Use correct shift type.
(includes): Glibc (and therefore gnulib) decided ffs is in
<strings.h>, but ffsl is in <string.h>.

Commit 0fc89098 used functions only available on glibc, completely

When trying to get the value of a private secret, the code used
'operation denied' error. That error is specified as a error for

following error seems more accurate.

 - BEFORE
error: operation secret is private forbidden for read only access

 - AFTER

2f678bb10f virNetDevBandwidthClear: Improve error handling
Two changes are introduced in this patch:

 - The first change removes ATTRIBUTE_RETURN_CHECK from
   virNetDevBandwidthClear, because it was called with ignore_value
   always, anyway. The function is used even when it's not necessary
   to call it, just for cleanup purposes.

 - The second change is added ignoring of the command's exit status,
   since it may report an error even when run just as "to be sure we
   clean up" function. No libvirt errors are suppresed by this.

5090c576e3 Add a ./run script for running programs from the local directory.
With this script you can run libvirt programs without needing to
install them first.  You just have to do for example:

  ./run ./tools/virsh [args ...]

If you are already in the tools/ subdirectory, then the following
command will also work:

  ../run ./virsh [...]

You can also run the C programs under valgrind like this:

  ./run valgrind [valgrind opts...] ./program

or under gdb:

  ./run gdb --args ./program

This also works with sudo (eg. if you need root access for libvirt):

  sudo ./run ./tools/virsh list --all

Derived from libguestfs and simplified.  The ./run script in
libguestfs is much more sophisticated:

e3b6b2be58 network: implement backend of virNetworkUpdate(IP_DHCP_HOST)
This patch fills in the first implementation for one of the
virNetworkUpdate sections. With this code, you can now add/delete/edit
<host> entries in a network's <ip> address <dhcp> element (by
specifying a section of VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST).

If you pass in a parentIndex of -1, the code will automatically find
the one ip element that has a <dhcp> section and make the updates
there. Otherwise, you can specify an index >= 0, and libvirt will look
for that particular instance of <ip> in the network, and modify its
<dhcp> element. (This currently isn't very useful, because libvirt
only supports having dhcp information on a single IP address, but that
could change in the future).

When adding a new host entry
(VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_ADD_(FIRST|LAST)), the existing entries
will be compared to the new entry, and if any non-empty attribute
matches, the add will fail. When updating an existing entry
(VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_MODIFY), the mac address or name will be
used to find the existing entry, and other fields will only be updated
(note there is some potential for ambiguity here if you specify the
mac address from one entry and the name from another).  When deleting
an existing entry (VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_DELETE), all non-empty
attributes in the supplied xml arg will be compared - all of them must
match before libvirt will delete the host.

The xml should be a fully formed <host> element as it would appear in
a network definition, e.g. "<host mac=00:11:22:33:44:55 ip=10.1.23.22
name='testbox'/>" (when adding/updating, ip and one of mac|name is
required; when deleting, you can specify any one, two, or all
attributes, but they all must match the target element).

As with the update of any other section, you can choose to affect the
live config (with flag VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE), the persistent
config (VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG), or both. If you've chosen
to affect the live config, those changes will take effect immediately,
with no need to destroy/restart the network.

An example of adding a host entry:

   virNetworkUpdate(net, VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_ADD_LAST,
                     VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST, -1,
                    "<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55' ip='192.168.122.5'/>",
                    VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE
                    | VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG);

To delete that same entry:

   virNetworkUpdate(net, VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_COMMAND_DELETE,
                    VIR_NETWORK_SECTION_IP_DHCP_HOST, -1,
                    "<host mac='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>",
                    VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_LIVE
                    | VIR_NETWORK_UPDATE_AFFECT_CONFIG);

(you could also delete it by replacing "mac='00:11:22:33:44:55'" with
"ip='192.168.122.5'".)

4cf974b674 network: restart radvd/dnsmasq if needed when libvirtd is restarted
A user on IRC had accidentally killed all of his libvirt-started
dnsmasq instances (due to a buggy dnsmasq service script in Fedora
16), and had hoped that libvirtd would notice this on restart and
reload all the dnsmasq daemons (as it does with iptables
rules). Unfortunately this was not the case - as long as the network
object had a pid registered for dnsmasq and/or radvd, it assumed that
the processes were running.

This patch takes advantage of the new utility functions in
bridge_driver.c to do a "refresh" of all radvd and dnsmasq processes
started by libvirt each time libvirtd is restarted - this function
attempts to do a SIGHUP of each existing process, and if that fails,
it restarts the process, rebuilding all the associated config files
and commandline parameters in the process. This normally has no
effect, but will be useful in solving the occasional "odd situation"
without needing to take the drastic step of destroying/re-starting the
network.

cd331650c0 network: implement virNetworkUpdate for bridge_driver

due to unreferenced static functions).

1ce4922e72 network: reorganize dnsmasq and radvd config file / startup
This patch splits the starting of dnsmasq and radvd into multiple
files, and adds new networkRefreshXX() and networkRestartXX()
functions for each. These new functions are currently commented out
because they won't be used until the next commit, and the compile options
require all static functions to be used.

networkRefreshXX() - rewrites any file-based config for dnsmasq/radvd,
and sends SIGHUP to the process to make it reread its config. If the
program isn't already running, it's just started.

networkRestartXX() - kills the given program, waits for it to exit
(see the comments in the function networkKillDaemon()), then calls
networkStartXX().

This commit is here mostly as a checkpoint to verify no change in
functional behavior after refactoring networkStartXX() functions to
fit in with these new functions.

d22f4badbc conf: implement NetworkObj backend of virNetworkUpdate API
virNetworkObjUpdate takes care of all virNetworkUpdate-related changes
to the data stored in the in-memory virNetworkObj list. It should be
called by network drivers that use this in-memory list.

virNetworkObjUpdate *does not* take care of updating any disk-based
copies of the config, nor does it perform any other operations
necessary to have the new config data take effect (e.g. it won't
re-write dnsmasq host files, nor will it send a SIGHUP to dnsmasq) -
those things should all be taken care of in the network driver
function that calls virNetworkObjUpdate (assuming that it returns
success).

f36309d688 network: utility functions for updating network config
These new functions are highly inspired by those in domain_conf.c (but
not identical), and are intended to make it simpler to update the
various combinations of live/persistent network configs.

The network driver wasn't previously as careful about the separation
between the live "status" in network->def and the persistent "config"
in network->newDef (or sometimes in network->def). This series
attempts to remedy some of that, but probably doesn't go all the way
(enough to get these functions working and enable continued work on
virNetworkUpdate though).

bridge_driver.c and test_driver.c were updated in a few places to take
advantage of the new functions and/or account for changes in argument
lists.

ed23b10660 blockjob: add virsh blockcommit
The new command 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk' requests the start
of an asynchronous commit operation across the entire chain of
$disk.  Further arguments can fine-tune which portion of the
chain is committed.  Existing 'virsh blockjob' commands can then
track the status, change the bandwidth, or abort the commit job.

With a bit more on the command line, 'virsh blockcommit $dom $disk
--wait --verbose' can be used for blocking behavior, with visual
feedback on the overall status, and can be canceled with Ctrl-C.

The overall design, including the wait loop logic, borrows heavily
from the existing blockpull command.

ef1e024df8 blockjob: add virDomainBlockCommit
A block commit moves data in the opposite direction of block pull.
Block pull reduces the chain length by dropping backing files after
data has been pulled into the top overlay, and is always safe; block
commit reduces the chain length by dropping overlays after data has
been committed into the backing file, and any files that depended
on base but not on top are invalidated at any point where they have
unallocated data that is now pointing to changed contents in base.
Both directions are useful, however: a qcow2 layer that is more than
50% allocated will typically be faster with a pull operation, while
a qcow2 layer with less than 50% allocation will be faster as a
commit operation.  Committing across multiple layers can be more
efficient than repeatedly committing one layer at a time, but
requires extra support from the hypervisor.

This API matches Jeff Cody's proposed qemu command 'block-commit':
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02226.html

Jeff's command is still in the works for qemu 1.3, and may gain
further enhancements, such as the ability to control on-error
handling (it will be comparable to the error handling Paolo is
adding to 'drive-mirror', so a similar solution will be needed
when I finally propose virDomainBlockCopy with more functionality
than the basics supported by virDomainBlockRebase).  However, even
without qemu support, this API will be useful for _offline_ block
commits, by wrapping qemu-img calls and turning them into a block
job, so this API is worth committing now.

For some examples of how this will be implemented, all starting
with the chain: base <- snap1 <- snap2 <- active

+ These are equivalent:
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, 0)
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "active", 0, 0)
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", NULL, 0, 0)
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "base", "active", 0, 0)
but cannot be implemented for online qemu with round 1 of
Jeff's patches; and for offline images, it would require
three back-to-back qemu-img invocations unless qemu-img
is patched to allow more efficient multi-layer commits;
the end result would be 'base' as the active disk with
contents from all three other files, where 'snap1' and
'snap2' are invalid right away, and 'active' is invalid
once any further changes to 'base' are made.

+ These are equivalent:
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, 0)
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, NULL, 0, _SHALLOW)
they cannot be implemented for online qemu, but for offline,
it is a matter of 'qemu-img commit active', so that 'snap2'
is now the active disk with contents formerly in 'active'.

+ Similarly:
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, "snap2", NULL, 0, _DELETE)
for an offline domain will merge 'active' into 'snap2', then
delete 'active' to avoid leaving a potentially invalid file
around.

+ This version:
 virDomainBlockCommit(dom, disk, NULL, "snap2", 0, _SHALLOW)
can be implemented online with 'block-commit' passing a base of
snap1 and a top of snap2; and can be implemented offline by
'qemu-img commit snap2' followed by 'qemu-img rebase -u
-b snap1 active'

d239085e95 qemu: drop unused arguments for dump-guest-memory
Upstream qemu has raised a concern about whether dumping guest
memory by reading guest paging tables is a security hole:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-09/msg02607.html

While auditing libvirt to see if we would be impacted, I noticed
that we had some dead code.  It is simpler to nuke the dead code
and limit our monitor code to just the subset we make use of.

* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h (QEMU_MONITOR_DUMP): Drop poorly named
and mostly-unused enum.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c (qemuMonitorDumpToFd): Drop arguments.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h (qemuMonitorJSONDump): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c (qemuMonitorJSONDump): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDumpToFd): Update caller.
