Thanks to the testsuite, I feel quite confident that this rewrite
is correct; it gives the same results for all cases except for one.
I can make the argument that _that_ case was a pre-existing bug:
when looking up relative names, the lookup is supposed to be
pegged to the directory that contains the parent qcow2 file. Thus,
this resolves the fixme first mentioned in commit 367cd69 (even

The chain lookup function was inconsistent on whether it left
a message in the log when looking up a name that is not found
on the chain (leaving a message for OOM or if name was
relative but not part of the chain), and could litter the log
even when successful (when name was relative but deep in the
chain, use of virFindBackingFile early in the chain would complain
about a file not found). It's easier to make the function
consistently emit a message exactly once on failure, and to let
all callers rely on the clean semantics.

The current use of virStorageFileMetadata is awkward; to learn
some of the information about a child node, you have to read
fields in the parent node. This does not lend itself well to
modifying backing chains (whether inserting a new node in the
chain, or consolidating existing nodes); better would be to
learn about a child node directly in that node. This patch
sets up some new fields which contain redundant information,
although not necessarily in the final desired state for the
new fields (see the next patch for actual tests of what is there
now). Then later patches will do any refactoring necessary to
get the fields to their desired states, and update clients to
get the information from the new fields, so we can finally
delete the fields that are tracking information about the wrong
node.
More concretely, compare these three example backing chains:
good <- one
missing <- two
gluster://server/vol/img <- three
Pre-patch, querying the chains gives:
{ .backingStore = "/path/to/good",
.backingStoreRaw = "good",
.backingStoreIsFile = true,
.backingStoreFormat = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW,
.backingMeta = {
.backingStore = NULL,
.backingStoreRaw = NULL,
.backingStoreIsFile = false,
.backingMeta = NULL,
}
}
{ .backingStore = NULL,
.backingStoreRaw = "missing",
.backingStoreIsFile = false,
.backingStoreFormat = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_NONE,
.backingMeta = NULL,
}
{ .backingStore = "gluster://server/vol/img",
.backingStoreRaw = NULL,
.backingStoreIsFile = false,
.backingStoreFormat = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW,
.backingMeta = NULL,
}
Deciding whether to ignore a missing backing file (as in virsh
vol-dumpxml) or report an error (as in security manager sVirt
labeling) requires reading multiple fields. Plus, the format
is hard-coded to treat all network protocols as end-of-the-chain,
as if they were raw. By the end of this patch series, the goal
is to instead represent these three situations as:
{ .path = "one",
.canonPath = "/path/to/one",
.type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE,
.format = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_QCOW2,
.backingStoreRaw = "good",
.backingMeta = {
.path = "good",
.canonPath = "/path/to/good",
.type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE,
.format = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW,
.backingStoreRaw = NULL,
.backingMeta = NULL,
}
}

.canonPath = "/path/to/two",
.type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE,

}

.canonPath = "gluster://server/vol/img",
.type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_NETWORK,
.format = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_RAW,
.backingStoreRaw = NULL,
.backingMeta = NULL,
}
}
or, for the second file, maybe also allowing:
{ .path = "two",
.canonPath = "/path/to/two",
.type = VIR_STORAGE_TYPE_FILE,
.format = VIR_STORAGE_FILE_QCOW2,
.backingStoreRaw = "missing",

Right now, we are allocating virStorageFileMetadata near the bottom
of the callchain, only after we have identified that we are visiting
a file (and not a network resource). I'm hoping to eventually
support parsing the backing chain from XML, where the backing chain

structure. Likewise, I'm working towards a setup where we have a
backing element even for networks. Both of these use cases are

While trying to refactor the backing file chain, I noticed that
if you have a self-referential qcow2 file via a relative name:
qemu-img create -f qcow2 loop 10M
qemu-img rebase -u -f qcow2 -F qcow2 -b loop loop
then libvirt was creating a chain 2 deep before realizing it
had hit a loop; furthermore, virStorageFileChainCheckBroken
was not identifying the chain as broken. With this patch,
the loop is detected when the chain is only 1 deep; still
enough for storage volume XML to display the file, but now
with a proper error report about where the loop was found.
This patch adds a parameter to virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse,
so that errors at the top of the chain remain unchanged; messages
issued for backing files now use the name provided by the user
instead of the canonical name (for VDSM, which uses relative
symlinks to device mapper block devices, this is actually more
useful).

'unsigned char *' makes sense if you are doing math on bytes and
don't want to worry about wraparound from a signed 'char'; but
since all we are doing is memcmp() or virReadBufInt*[LB]E(), which
are both safe on either type of char, and since read() prefers to
operate on 'char *', it's simpler to avoid casts by just typing
things as 'char *' from the get-go. [Technically, read can
operate on an 'unsigned char *' thanks to the C rule that any
pointer can be implicitly converted to 'char *' for legacy K&R
compatibility; but where this patch saves us is if we try to use

syscall SYS_fallocate.
This resolves:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=851411https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=955500
The first problem was that virFileOpenAs was returning fd (-1) in one
of the error cases rather than ret (-errno), so the caller thought
that the error was EPERM rather than ENOENT.
The second problem was that some log messages in the general purpose
qemuOpenFile() function would always say "Failed to create" even if
the caller hadn't included O_CREAT (i.e. they were trying to open an
existing file).
This fixes virFileOpenAs to jump down to the error return (which
returns ret instead of fd) in the previously mentioned incorrect
failure case of virFileOpenAs(), removes all error logging from
virFileOpenAs() (since the callers report it), and modifies
qemuOpenFile to appropriately use "open" or "create" in its log
messages.
NB: I seriously considered removing logging from all callers of
virFileOpenAs(), but there is at least one case where the caller
doesn't want virFileOpenAs() to log any errors, because it's just
going to try again (qemuOpenFile()). We can't simply make a silent
variation of virFileOpenAs() though, because qemuOpenFile() can't make
the decision about whether or not it wants to retry until after
virFileOpenAs() has already returned an error code.
Likewise, I also considered changing virFileOpenAs() to return -1 with
errno set on return, and may still do that, but only as a separate
patch, as it obscures the intent of this patch too much.
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.
If you have a qcow2 file /path1/to/file pointed to by symlink
/path2/symlink, and pass qemu /path2/symlink, then qemu treats
a relative backing file in the qcow2 metadata as being relative
to /path2, not /path1/to. Yes, this means that it is possible
to create a qcow2 file where the choice of WHICH directory and
symlink you access its contents from will then determine WHICH
backing file (if any) you actually find; the results can be
rather screwy, but we have to match what qemu does.
Libvirt and qemu default to creating absolute backing file
names, so most users don't hit this. But at least VDSM uses
symlinks and relative backing names alongside the
--reuse-external flags to libvirt snapshot operations, with the
result that libvirt was failing to follow the intended chain of
backing files, and then backing files were not granted the
necessary sVirt permissions to be opened by qemu.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=903248 for
more gory details. This fixes a regression introduced in
commit 8250783.

Prior to this patch, I got complaints about missing backing
files; afterwards, I was able to verify that the backing chain
(and hence DAC and SELinux relabels) of the entire chain worked.
* src/util/virstoragefile.h (_virStorageFileMetadata): Add
directory member.
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (absolutePathFromBaseFile): Drop,
replaced by...
(virFindBackingFile): ...better function.
(virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal): Add an argument.
(virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD, virStorageFileChainLookup)
(virStorageFileGetMetadata): Update callers.
Prior to this patch, we had the callchains:
external users
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf
virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf
However, a future patch wants to add an additional parameter to
the bottom of the chain, for use by virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse,
without affecting existing external callers. Since there is only a
single caller of the internal function, we can repurpose it to fit
our needs, with this patch giving us:
external users
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal
virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse /
\-> virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD):
Move most of the guts...
(virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf): ...here, and rename...
(virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal): ...to this.
(virStorageFileGetMetadataRecurse): Use internal helper.
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD is the only caller of
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf; and it doesn't care about the
difference between a return of 0 (total success) or 1
(metadata was inconsistent, but pointer was populated as best
as possible); only about a return of -1 (could not read metadata
or out of memory). Changing the return type, and normalizing
the variable names used, will make merging the functions easier
in the next commit.
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf):
Change return value, and rename some variables.
(virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD): Rename some variables.
No semantic change; done so the next patch doesn't need a forward
declaration of a static function.
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (virStorageFileProbeFormatFromBuf):
Hoist earlier.
This makes code easier to read, by avoiding lines longer than
80 columns and removing the repetition from the callers.
* src/util/virstoragefile.c (qedGetHeaderUL, qedGetHeaderULL):
Delete in favor of more generic macros.
(qcow2GetBackingStoreFormat, qcowXGetBackingStore)
(qedGetBackingStore, virStorageFileMatchesVersion)
(virStorageFileGetMetadataInternal): Use new macros.
* src/cpu/cpu_x86.c (x86VendorLoad): Likewise.
QEMU is fully capable of handling VDI images and we just refuse to
work with them. As qemu-img knows and supports this, there should be
no problem with this addition.
This is of course, just basic functionality, without searching for any
backing files, etc.
Some files have the magic shifted to some offset other than 0, so we
have to support that. I also cleaned up some lines to be more
readable and added missing magic for iso file format.
