Do not require each caller of virStorageFileGetMetadata and
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD to first clear the storage of the
"meta" buffer. Instead, initialize that storage in
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD.
* src/util/storage_file.c (virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD): Clear
"meta" here, not before each of the following callers.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuSetupDiskCgroup): Don't clear "meta" here.
(qemuTeardownDiskCgroup): Likewise.
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c (qemuSecurityDACSetSecurityImageLabel):
Likewise.
* src/security/security_selinux.c (SELinuxSetSecurityImageLabel):
Likewise.
* src/security/virt-aa-helper.c (get_files): Likewise.
* cfg.mk (sc_prohibit_gettext_markup): New rule, to enforce
this policy. Contrary to most diagnostic-emitting functions,
where we require _(...) markup, here, we require that _() *not*
be used for certain functions (or function-like macros).
Approximately 60 messages were marked. Since these diagnostics are
intended solely for developers and maintainers, encouraging translation
is deemed to be counterproductive:

There were three very similar uses of qemuMonitorAddDrive.
This change makes the three 17-line sequences identical.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainAttachPciDiskDevice): Detect
failure. Add VIR_WARN and braces.
(qemudDomainAttachSCSIDisk): Add VIR_WARN and braces.
(qemudDomainAttachUsbMassstorageDevice): Likewise.
* tests/nodeinfotest.c (linuxTestCompareFiles): Don't use
nodeinfo->member uninitialized. linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate requires
that some of its nodeinfo members (including threads) be initialized
upon input. The nodeinfotest.c program lacked the initialization,
while the only other use (nodeGetInfo) did perform it.
It's not trivial to move the initialization into the function,
since nodeGetInfo sets at least one member after clearing the
buffer but before calling linuxNodeInfoCPUPopulate.
History has shown that there are frequent bugs in the QEMU driver
code leading to the monitor being invoked with a NULL pointer.
Although the QEMU driver code should always report an error in
this case before invoking the monitor, as a safety net put in a
generic check in the monitor code entry points.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c: Safety net to check for NULL monitor
object
Any method which intends to invoke a monitor command must have
a check for virDomainObjIsActive() before using the monitor to
ensure that priv->mon != NULL.
There is one subtle edge case in this though. If a method invokes
multiple monitor commands, and calls qemuDomainObjExitMonitor()
in between two of these commands then there is no guarentee that
priv->mon != NULL anymore. This is because the QEMU process may
exit or die at any time, and because qemuDomainObjEnterMonitor()
releases the lock on virDomainObj, it is possible for the background
thread to close the monitor handle and thus qemuDomainObjExitMonitor
will release the last reference allowing priv->mon to become NULL.
This affects several methods, most notably migration but also some
hotplug methods. This patch takes a variety of approaches to solve
the problem, depending on the particular usage scenario. Generally
though it suffices to add an extra virDomainObjIsActive() check
if qemuDomainObjExitMonitor() was called during the method.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Fix multiple potential NULL pointer flaws
in usage of the monitor
This makes the useless-if-before-free test in maint.mk spot
uses of virCgroupFree just like it does for free and the other
listed functions.
* cfg.mk (useless_free_options): Add virCgroupFree.
Prompted by suggestion from Eric Blake.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSetVcpus): Upon look-up failure,
i.e., vm==NULL, goto cleanup, rather than to "endjob", superficially
since the latter would dereference vm, but more fundamentally because
we certainly don't want to call qemuDomainObjEndJob before we've
even attempted qemuDomainObjBeginJob.
(gdb) p/x QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_VNET_HOST
$7 = 0xffffffff80000000
Oops - that meant we were incorrectly setting QEMU_CMD_FLAG_RTC_TD_HACK
for qemu-kvm-0.12.3 (and probably botching a few other settings as well).
Fixes Red Hat BZ#592070
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.h (QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_VNET_HOST): Avoid sign
extension.
* tests/qemuhelpdata/qemu-kvm-0.12.3: New file.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (mymain): Add another case.

Pointing out these two error messages as unclear: "write save" sounds
like a typo without context, and lack of a colon made the second message
difficult to parse.
virFileResolveLink was returning a positive value on error,
thus confusing callers that assumed failure was < 0. The
confusion is further evidenced by callers that would have
ended up calling virReportSystemError with a negative value
instead of a valid errno.
Fixes Red Hat BZ #591363.
* src/util/util.c (virFileResolveLink): Live up to documentation.
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c
(qemuSecurityDACRestoreSecurityFileLabel): Adjust callers.

The max path length for unix sockets is pretty small (108, see man 7 unix).
If 'make check' is run from a directory that exceeds this, one of the tests
will fail, and in such a way that requires manually editting the test to
determine why.
There are certainly other ways to handle this, but I've chosen just to skip
the offending test if we will exceed the length limitation.
v2: Drop bashism, use test infrastructure to warn and skip
Fix the cygwin regression introduced in commit 48445ccff, but
without repeating the fresh build regression of commit
2d550542e.
* src/Makefile.am (libvirt_test_la_LIBADD): Split out subset of
locally-built libraries...

(libvirt_test_la_DEPENDENCIES): Depend only on the subset that
automake would have given us for free if we didn't have to add our
own extra file.
Matthias noted that the line:
virt_aa_helper_LDFLAGS = $(WARN_CFLAGS)
looks inconsistent, so I did an audit.
Currently, the set of compiler warning flags passed to gcc as $CC are
equally permitted as the set of linker flags passed to gcc as $LD, so
there was no problem with that usage. But if we ever get in a
situation where $CC and $LD treat particular flags differently, using
the right variable form will make it easier.
In the process, I spotted a couple of typos that were omitting useful
flags, as well as specifying a -l under the wrong variable.
* acinclude.m4 (LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS): Define WARN_LDFLAGS as
an alias for WARN_CFLAGS.
* tools/Makefile.am (virsh_LDFLAGS): Use more canonical spelling.
* proxy/Makefile.am (libvirt_proxy_LDFLAGS): Likewise. Move
library...
(libvirt_proxy_LDADD): ...here.
* src/Makefile.am (virt_aa_helper_LDFLAGS): Use more canonical
spelling of WARN_LDFLAGS.
(libvirt_parthelper_LDFLAGS, libvirt_lxc_LDFLAGS): Likewise. Use
correct spelling of COVERAGE_LDFLAGS.

qemuReadLogOutput early VM death detection is racy and won't always work.
Startup then errors when connecting to the VM monitor. This won't report
the emulator cmdline output which is typically the most useful diagnostic.
Check if the VM has died at the very end of the monitor connection step,
and if so, report the cmdline output.

* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainSetVcpus): Avoid NULL-deref
upon unknown UUID. Call qemuDomainObjBeginJob(vm) only after
ensuring that vm != NULL, not before. This potential NULL-deref
was introduced by commit 2c555d87b0.
This reverts commit 2d550542ee.
The patch worked for incremental builds, but broke fresh
builds, because it interfered with automake's automatic
dependency generation. Until I figure out how to make
automake do what we want, I'd rather leave cygwin broken
but fresh Linux builds working.
make[3]: *** No rule to make target `-lxml2', needed by `libvirt.la'. Stop.
Due to treating the wrong string as a dependency.
* src/Makefile.am (libvirt_la_DEPENDENCIES): Depend only on
locally-built file, not on strings that might resolve as '-lxml2'.
The code specifies driver->cacheDir as the format string,
but it usually doesn't contain '%s', so the subsequent
argument, "/qemu.mem.XXXXXX", is always ignored.
The patch fixes the misuse.
Setting dynamic_ownership=0 in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf prevents
libvirt's DAC security driver from setting uid/gid on disk
files when starting/stopping QEMU, allowing the admin to manage
this manually. As a side effect it also stopped setting of
uid/gid when saving guests to a file, which completely breaks
save when QEMU is running non-root. Thus saved state labelling
code must ignore the dynamic_ownership parameter
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c: Ignore dynamic_ownership=0 when
doing save/restore image labelling
When QEMU runs with its disk on NFS, and as a non-root user, the
disk is chownd to that non-root user. When migration completes
the last step is shutting down the QEMU on the source host. THis
normally resets user/group/security label. This is bad when the
VM was just migrated because the file is still in use on the dest
host. It is thus neccessary to skip the reset step for any files
found to be on a shared filesystem
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export virStorageFileIsSharedFS
* src/util/storage_file.c, src/util/storage_file.h: Add a new
method virStorageFileIsSharedFS() to determine if a file is
on a shared filesystem (NFS, GFS, OCFS2, etc)
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Tell security driver not to reset
disk labels on migration completion
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c, src/qemu/qemu_security_stacked.c,
src/security/security_selinux.c, src/security/security_driver.h,
src/security/security_apparmor.c: Add ability to skip disk
restore step for files on shared filesystems.
The cgroups ACL code was only allowing the primary disk image.
It is possible to chain images together, so we need to search
for backing stores and add them to the ACL too. Since the ACL
only handles block devices, we ignore the EINVAL we get from
plain files. In addition it was missing code to teardown the
cgroup when hot-unplugging a disk
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Allow backing stores in cgroup ACLs
and add missing teardown code in unplug path
