Fix libvirtd hang since fork() was called while another thread had
security manager locked.
We have the stack security driver, which internally manages other security drivers,
just call them "top" and "nested".
We call virSecurityStackPreFork() to lock the top one, and it also locks
and then unlocks the nested drivers prior to fork. Then in qemuSecurityPostFork(),
it unlocks the top one, but not the nested ones. Thus, if one of the nested
drivers ("dac" or "selinux") is still locked, it will cause a deadlock. If we always
surround nested locks with top lock, it is always secure. Because we have got top lock
before fork child libvirtd.
However, it is not always the case in the current code, We discovered this case:
the nested list obtained through the qemuSecurityGetNested() will be locked directly
for subsequent use, such as in virQEMUDriverCreateCapabilities(), where the nested list
is locked using qemuSecurityGetDOI, but the top one is not locked beforehand.
The problem stack is as follows:
libvirtd thread1 libvirtd thread2 child libvirtd
| | |
| | |
virsh capabilities qemuProcessLanuch |
| | |
| lock top |
| | |
lock nested | |
| | |
| fork------------------->|(nested lock held by thread1)
| | |
| | |
unlock nested unlock top unlock top
|
|
qemuSecuritySetSocketLabel
|
|
lock nested (deadlock)
In this commit, we ensure that the top lock is acquired before the nested lock,
so during fork, it's not possible for another task to acquire the nested lock.

Libvirt API for virtualization
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.
For some of these hypervisors, it provides a stateful management daemon which runs on the virtualization host allowing access to the API both by non-privileged local users and remote users.
Layered packages provide bindings of the libvirt C API into other languages including Python, Perl, PHP, Go, Java, OCaml, as well as mappings into object systems such as GObject, CIM and SNMP.
