We're seeing bugs apparently resulting from thread unsafety of
libpciaccess, such as
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/+bug/726099
To prevent those, as suggested by danpb on irc, move the
nodeDeviceLock(driverState) higher into the callers. In
particular:
udevDeviceMonitorStartup should hold the lock while calling
udevEnumerateDevices(), and udevEventHandleCallback should hold it
over its entire execution.
It's not clear to me whether it is ok to hold the
nodeDeviceLock while taking the virNodeDeviceObjLock(dev) on a
device. If not, then the lock will need to be dropped around
the calling of udevSetupSystemDev(), and udevAddOneDevice()
may not actually be safe to call from higher layers with the
driverstate lock held.
libvirt 0.8.8 with this patch on it seems to work fine for me.
Assuming it looks ok and I haven't done anything obviously dumb,
I'll ask the bug submitters to try this patch.

This patch adds max_processes option to qemu.conf which can be used to
override system default limit on number of processes that are allowed to
be running for qemu user.
cc1: warnings being treated as errors
libxl/libxl_driver.c: In function 'libxlDomainSetVcpusFlags':
libxl/libxl_driver.c:1570:14: error: cast from function call of type 'double' to non-matching type 'unsigned int' [-Wbad-function-cast]
libxl/libxl_driver.c:1578:15: error: cast from function call of type 'double' to non-matching type 'unsigned int' [-Wbad-function-cast]
This was the only use of floor() and ceil(), and floating-point
is overkill for power-of-two manipulations.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c (libxlDomainSetVcpusFlags): Avoid -lm
for trivial computations.
GCC is a little confused about the cast of beginthread/beginthreadex
from unsigned long -> void *. Go via an intermediate variable avoids
the bogus warning, and makes the code a little cleaner
* src/util/threads-win32.c: Avoid compiler warning in cast
The SCSI volumes get a better 'key' field based on the fully
qualified volume path. All SCSI volumes have a unique serial
available in hardware which can be obtained by sending a
suitable SCSI command. Call out to udev's 'scsi_id' command
to fetch this value
* src/storage/storage_backend_scsi.c: Improve volume key
field value stability and uniqueness
When initializing qemu guest capabilities, we should ignore qemu
binaries that we are not able to extract version/help info from since
they will be unusable for creating domains anyway. Ignoring them is also
much better than letting initialization of qemu driver fail.
A couple of functions were declared using the old style foo()
for no-parameters, instead of foo(void)
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c, tests/testutils.c: Replace () with (void)
in some function declarations
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4: Enable -Wold-style-definition
Replace openvz_readline with getline in several places to get rid of stack
allocated buffers to hold lines.
openvzReadConfigParam allocates memory for return values instead of
expecting a preexisting buffer.
This patch enables the relative backing file path support provided by
qemu-img create.
If a relative path is specified for the backing file, it is converted
to an absolute path using the storage pool path. The absolute path is
used to verify that the backing file exists. If the backing file exists,
the relative path is allowed and will be provided to qemu-img create.
Even with -Wuninitialized (which is part of autobuild.sh
--enable-compile-warnings=error), gcc does NOT catch this
use of an uninitialized variable:
{
if (cond)
goto error;
int a = 1;
error:
printf("%d", a);
}
which prints 0 (supposing the stack started life wiped) if
cond was true. Clang will catch it, but we don't use clang
as often. Using gcc -Wjump-misses-init catches it, but also
gives false positives:
{
if (cond)
goto error;
int a = 1;
return a;
error:
return 0;
}
Here, a was never used in the scope of the error block, so
declaring it after goto is technically fine (and clang agrees).
However, given that our HACKING already documents a preference
to C89 decl-before-statement, the false positive warning is
enough of a prod to comply with HACKING.
[Personally, I'd _really_ rather use C99 decl-after-statement
to minimize scope, but until gcc can efficiently and reliably
catch scoping and uninitialized usage bugs, I'll settle with
the compromise of enforcing a coding standard that happens to
reject false positives if it can also detect real bugs.]

If strdup("x509dname") or strdup("saslUsername") success, but

When you happen to have a libvirtd binary compiled with the
libxenlight driver (say you have installed xen-4.1 libraries)
but not running a xen enabled system, then libvirtd fails to start.
The cause is that libxlStartup() returns -1 when failing to initialize
the library, and this propagates to virStateInitialize() which consider
this a failure. We should only exit libxlStartup with an error code
if something like an allocation error occurs, not if the driver failed
to initialize.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: fix libxlStartup() to not return -1
when failing to initialize the libxenlight library
qemu driver uses a 4K buffer for reading qemu log file. This is enough
when only qemu's output is present in the log file. However, when
debugging messages are turned on, intermediate libvirt process fills the
log with a bunch of debugging messages before it executes qemu binary.
In such a case the buffer may become too small. However, we are not
really interested in libvirt messages so they can be filtered out from
the buffer.
It throws errors as long as the cgroup controller is not available,
regardless of whether we really want to use it to do setup or not,
which is not what we want, fixing it with throwing error when need
to use the controller.
And change "VIR_WARN" to "qemuReportError" for memory controller
incidentally.
We create a temporary file to save memory, and we will remove it after reading
memory to buffer. But we free the variable that contains the temporary filename
before we remove it. So we should free tmp after unlinking it.
strcase{cmp/str} have the drawback of being sensitive to the global
locale; this is unacceptable in a library setting. Prefer a
hard-coded C locale alternative for all but virsh, which is user
facing and where the global locale isn't changing externally.

If qemu quited unexpectedly when we call qemuMonitorJSONHMP(),
libvirt will crash.
Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. use gdb to attach libvirtd, and set a breakpoint in the function
qemuMonitorSetCapabilities()
2. start a vm
3. let the libvirtd to run until qemuMonitorJSONSetCapabilities() returns.
4. kill the qemu process
5. continue running libvirtd

If the monitor met a error, and we will call qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF().
But we may try to send monitor command after qemuProcessHandleMonitorEOF()
returned. Then libvirtd will be blocked in qemuMonitorSend().
Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. use gdb to attach libvirtd, and set a breakpoint in the function
qemuConnectMonitor()
2. start a vm
3. let the libvirtd to run until qemuMonitorOpen() returns.
4. kill the qemu process
5. continue running libvirtd

Currently libvirt's default logging is limited and it is difficult to
determine what was happening when a proglem occurred (especially on a
machines where one don't know the detail.) This patch helps to do that
by making additional logging available for the following events:
creating/defining/undefining domains
creating/defining/undefining/starting/stopping networks
creating/defining/undefining/starting/stopping storage pools
creating/defining/undefining/starting/stopping storage volumes.
* AUTHORS: add Naoya Horiguchi
* src/network/bridge_driver.c src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
src/storage/storage_driver.c: provide more VIR_INFO logging
Not sure if it's the correct way to add cputune xml for xend driver,
and besides, seems "xm driver" and "xen hypervisor" also support
vcpu affinity, do we need to add support for them too?
When domain startup, setting cpu affinity and cpu shares according
to the cputune xml specified in domain xml.
Modify "qemudDomainPinVcpu" to update domain config for vcpupin,
and modify "qemuSetSchedulerParameters" to update domain config
for cpu shares.
v1 - v2:
* Use "VIR_ALLOC_N" instead of "VIR_ALLOC_VAR"
* But keep raising error when it fails on adding vcpupin xml
entry, as I still don't have a better idea yet.
