dced27c89e Rename all brXXXX APIs to follow new convention
The existing brXXX APIs in src/util/bridge.h are renamed to
follow one of three different conventions

 - virNetDevXXX       - operations for any type of interface
 - virNetDevBridgeXXX - operations for bridge interfaces
 - virNetDevTapXXX    - operations for tap interfaces

* src/util/bridge.h, src/util/bridge.c: Rename all APIs
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c, src/network/bridge_driver.c,
  src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/uml/uml_conf.c,
  src/uml/uml_driver.c: Update for API renaming

4f4fd8f7ad Make all brXXX APIs raise errors, instead of returning errnos
Currently every caller of the brXXX APIs has to store the returned
errno value and then raise an error message. This results in
inconsistent error messages across drivers, additional burden on
the callers and makes the error reporting inaccurate since it is
hard to distinguish different scenarios from 1 errno value.

* src/util/bridge.c: Raise errors instead of returning errnos
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c, src/network/bridge_driver.c,
  src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/uml/uml_conf.c,
  src/uml/uml_driver.c: Remove error reporting code

6cfeb9a766 Remove 'brControl' object
The bridge management APIs in src/util/bridge.c require a brControl
object to be passed around. This holds the file descriptor for the
control socket. This extra object complicates use of the API for
only a minor efficiency gain, which is in turn entirely offset by
the need to fork/exec the brctl command for STP configuration.

This patch removes the 'brControl' object entirely, instead opening
the control socket & closing it again within the scope of each method.

The parameter names for the APIs are also made to consistently use
'brname' for bridge device name, and 'ifname' for an interface
device name. Finally annotations are added for non-NULL parameters
and return check validation

* src/util/bridge.c, src/util/bridge.h: Remove brControl object
  and update API parameter names & annotations.
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c, src/network/bridge_driver.c,
  src/uml/uml_conf.h, src/uml/uml_conf.c, src/uml/uml_driver.c,
  src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h,
  src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove reference to 'brControl' object

676fdf8cb5 build: allow for local gnulib diffs
Commit f7bd00c12 pulled in a gnulib module that fails to compile
on mingw.  While it would be nice to pull in a newer version of
.gnulib that fixes this, it is difficult to backport any .gnulib
update to older releases.  So, it makes sense to take advantage
of gnulib-tool's ability to support local diffs, where we can
apply specific diffs in our use of gnulib without waiting for
upstream gnulib to pick up those changes, as well as avoiding
a wholesale .gnulib update.  The existence of local diffs will
also make it easier to backport fixes against a tarball (as long
as a tarball and libvirt.git share the same .gnulib commit, then
the tarball can be patched by applying the same local diffs as
a post-release libvirt.git commit, without having to rerun an
entire gnulib-tool bootstrap).

This patch introduces the framework for supporting local diffs,
without actually introducing any.

* bootstrap.conf (local_gl_dir): New variable.
* autogen.sh (bootstrap_hash): Hash any local diffs, to force a
re-bootstrap if just diffs change.
* cfg.mk (_update_required): Likewise.

f7bd00c12c build: fix build on platforms without ptsname_r
MacOS lacks ptsname_r, and gnulib doesn't (yet) provide it.
But we can avoid it altogether, by using gnulib openpty()
instead.  Note that we do _not_ want the pt_chown module;
gnulib uses it only to implement a replacement openpty() if
the system lacks both openpty() and granpt(), but all
systems that we currently port to either have at least one of
openpty() and/or grantpt(), or lack ptys altogether.  That is,
we aren't porting to any system that requires us to deal with
the hassle of installing a setuid pt_chown helper just to use
gnulib's ability to provide openpty() on obscure platforms.

* .gnulib: Update to latest, for openpty fixes
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add openpty, ttyname_r.
(gnulib_tool_option_extras): Exclude pt_chown module.
* src/util/util.c (virFileOpenTty): Rewrite in terms of openpty
and ttyname_r.

b2c6231647 Fix sending/receiving of FDs when stream returns EAGAIN
The code calling sendfd/recvfd was mistakenly assuming those
calls would never block. They can in fact return EAGAIN and
this is causing us to drop the client connection when blocking
ocurrs while sending/receiving FDs.

Fixing this is a little hairy on the incoming side, since at
the point where we see the EAGAIN, we already thought we had
finished receiving all data for the packet. So we play a little
trick to reset bufferOffset again and go back into polling for
more data.

  virNetSocketSendFD/RecvFD to return 0 on EAGAIN, or 1
  on success

It turns out that gnulib used only pthread_join for LIB_PTHREAD,

the more complex pthread_create really does require -pthread,
which gnulib tracked under [LT]LIBMULTITHREAD.

0f31f7b794 Add support for multiple consoles in LXC
Currently the LXC controller only supports setup of a single
text console. This is wired up to the container init's stdio,
as well as /dev/console and /dev/tty1. Extending support for
multiple consoles, means wiring up additional PTYs to /dev/tty2,
/dev/tty3, etc, etc. The LXC controller is passed multiple open
file handles, one for each console requested.

86b53e59d8 Rewrite LXC I/O forwarding to use main event loop
The current I/O code for LXC uses a hand crafted event loop
to forward I/O between the container & host app, based on
epoll to handle EOF on PTYs. This event loop is not easily
extensible to add more consoles, or monitor other types of
file descriptors.

Remove the custom event loop and replace it with a normal
libvirt event loop. When detecting EOF on a PTY, disable
the event watch on that FD, and fork off a background thread
that does a edge-triggered epoll() on the FD. When the FD
finally shows new incoming data, the thread re-enables the
watch on the FD and exits.

When getting EOF from a read() on the PTY, the existing code
would do waitpid(WNOHANG) to see if the container had exited.
Unfortunately there is a race condition, because even though
the process has closed its stdio handles, it might still
exist.

To deal with this the new event loop uses a SIG_CHILD handler
to perform the waitpid only when the container is known to
have actually exited.

* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c: Rewrite the event loop to use
  the standard APIs.

97656536e7 qemu: allow getting < max typed parameters
Since all virTypedParameter APIs allow us to return the number
of slots we actually populated, we should allow the user to
call with nparams too small (without overrunning their array)
or too large (ignoring the tail of the array that we can't fill),
rather than requiring that they get things exactly right.

Making this change will make it easier for a future patch to
introduce VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING, with filtering in libvirt.c
rather than in every single driver, since users already have
to be prepared for *nparams to be smaller on exit than on entry.

The LXC code for mounting container filesystems from block devices
tries all filesystems in /etc/filesystems and possibly those in
/proc/filesystems. The regular mount binary, however, first tries
using libblkid to detect the format. Add support for doing the same
in libvirt, since Fedora's /etc/filesystems is missing many formats,
most notably ext4 which is the default filesystem Fedora uses!

* src/Makefile.am: Link libvirt_lxc to libblkid
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Probe filesystem format with libblkid

6828535669 Fix error message when failing to detect filesystem
If we looped through /etc/filesystems trying to mount with each
type and failed all options, we forget to actually raise an
error message.

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Raise error if unable to detect
  the filesystems. Also fix existing error message

878cc33a6a Workaround for broken kernel autofs mounts
The kernel automounter is mostly broken wrt to containers. Most
notably if you start a new filesystem namespace and then attempt
to unmount any autofs filesystem, it will typically fail with a
weird error message like

  Failed to unmount '/.oldroot/sys/kernel/security':Too many levels of symbolic links

Attempting to detach the autofs mount using umount2(MNT_DETACH)
will also fail with the same error. Therefore if we get any error on
unmount()ing a filesystem from the old root FS when starting a
container, we must immediately break out and detach the entire
old root filesystem (ignoring any mounts below it).

This has the effect of making the old root filesystem inaccessible
to anything inside the container, but at the cost that the mounts
live on in the kernel until the container exits. Given that SystemD
uses autofs by default, we need LXC to be robust this scenario and
thus this tradeoff is worthwhile.

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Detach root filesystem if any umount
  operation fails.

a02f57faa9 Correctly handle '*' in /etc/filesystems
The /etc/filesystems file can contain a '*' on the last line to
indicate that /proc/filessystems should be tried next. We have
a check that this '*' only occurs on the last line. Unfortunately
when we then start reading /proc/filesystems, we mistakenly think
we've seen '*' in /proc/filesystems and fail

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Skip '*' validation when we're reading
  /proc/filesystems

065ecf5162 Ensure errno is valid when returning from lxcContainerWaitForContinue
Only some of the return paths of lxcContainerWaitForContinue will
have set errno. In other paths we need to set it manually to avoid
the caller getting a random stale errno value

* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Set errno in lxcContainerWaitForContinue

f33b5792f7 Create /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems for LXC trees
We already have a /var/lib/libvirt/images for OS install images.
We need a separate /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems for OS install
trees, since SELinux labelling will be different

* libvirt.spec.in: Add /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems
* src/Makefile.am: Create /var/lib/libvirt/filesystems
