Extend the 'gendispatch.pl' script to be able to generate three new types of file. - 'aclheader' - defines signatures of helper APIs for doing authorization checks. There is one helper API for each API requiring an auth check. Any @acl annotations result in a method being generated with a suffix of 'EnsureACL'. If the ACL check requires examination of flags, an extra 'flags' param will be present. Some examples extern int virConnectBaselineCPUEnsureACL(void); extern int virConnectDomainEventDeregisterEnsureACL(virDomainDefPtr domain); extern int virDomainAttachDeviceFlagsEnsureACL(virDomainDefPtr domain, unsigned int flags); Any @aclfilter annotations resuilt in a method being generated with a suffix of 'CheckACL'. extern int virConnectListAllDomainsCheckACL(virDomainDefPtr domain); These are used for filtering individual objects from APIs which return a list of objects - 'aclbody' - defines the actual implementation of the methods described above. This calls into the access manager APIs. A complex example: /* Returns: -1 on error (denied==error), 0 on allowed */ int virDomainAttachDeviceFlagsEnsureACL(virConnectPtr conn, virDomainDefPtr domain, unsigned int flags) { virAccessManagerPtr mgr; int rv; if (!(mgr = virAccessManagerGetDefault())) return -1; if ((rv = virAccessManagerCheckDomain(mgr, conn->driver->name, domain, VIR_ACCESS_PERM_DOMAIN_WRITE)) <= 0) { virObjectUnref(mgr); if (rv == 0) virReportError(VIR_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED, NULL); return -1; } if (((flags & (VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG|VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_LIVE)) == 0) && (rv = virAccessManagerCheckDomain(mgr, conn->driver->name, domain, VIR_ACCESS_PERM_DOMAIN_SAVE)) <= 0) { virObjectUnref(mgr); if (rv == 0) virReportError(VIR_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED, NULL); return -1; } if (((flags & (VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG)) == (VIR_DOMAIN_AFFECT_CONFIG)) && (rv = virAccessManagerCheckDomain(mgr, conn->driver->name, domain, VIR_ACCESS_PERM_DOMAIN_SAVE)) <= 0) { virObjectUnref(mgr); if (rv == 0) virReportError(VIR_ERR_ACCESS_DENIED, NULL); return -1; } virObjectUnref(mgr); return 0; } - 'aclsyms' - generates a linker script to export the APIs to drivers.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
