Add umask to _virCommand, allow user to set umask to command. Set umask(002) to qemu process to overwrite the default umask of 022 set by many distros, so that unix sockets created for virtio-serial has expected permissions. Fix problem reported here: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13078#c11 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=888166 To use virtio-serial device, unix socket created for chardev with default umask(022) has insufficient permissions. e.g.: -device virtio-serial \ -chardev socket,path=/tmp/foo,server,nowait,id=foo \ -device virtserialport,chardev=foo,name=org.fedoraproject.port.0 srwxr-xr-x 1 qemu qemu 0 21. Jul 14:19 /tmp/somefile.sock Other users in the same group (like real user, test engines, etc) cannot write to this socket.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
