When not given an existing PID or network namspace to attach to, pasta
spawns a shell. Most commands which can spawn a shell in an altered
environment can also run other commands in that same environment, which can
be useful in automation.
Allow pasta to do the same thing; it can be given an arbitrary command to
run in the network and user namespace which pasta creates. If neither a
command nor an existing PID or netns to attach to is given, continue to
spawn a default shell, as before.

When attaching to an existing namespace, pasta can take a PID or the name
or path of a network namespace as a non-option parameter. We disambiguate
based on what the parameter looks like. Make this more explicit by using
a --netns option for explicitly giving the path or name, and treating a
non-option argument always as a PID.

pasta takes as its only non-option argument either a PID to attach to the
namespaces of, a PATH to a network namespace or a NAME of a network
namespace (relative to /run/netns). Currently to determine which it is
we try all 3 in that order, and if anything goes wrong we move onto the
next.
This has the potential to cause very confusing failure modes. e.g. if the
argument is intended to be a network namespace name, but a (non-namespace)
file of the same name exists in the current directory.
Make behaviour more predictable by choosing how to treat the argument based
only on the argument's contents, not anything else on the system:
- If it's a decimal integer treat it as a PID
- Otherwise, if it has no '/' characters, treat it as a netns name
(ip-netns doesn't allow '/' in netns names)
- Otherwise, treat it as a netns path
If you want to open a persistent netns in the current directory, you can
use './netns'.
This also allows us to split the parsing of the PID|PATH|NAME option from
the actual opening of the namespaces. In turn that allows us to put the
opening of existing namespaces next to the opening of new namespaces in
pasta_start_ns. That makes the logical flow easier to follow and will
enable later cleanups.
Caveats:
- The separation of functions mean we will always generate the basename
and dirname for the netns_quit system, even when using PID namespaces.
This is pointless, since the netns_quit system doesn't work for non
persistent namespaces, but is harmless.

pasta can identify a netns as a "name", which is to say a path relative to
(usually) /run/netns, which is the place that ip(8) creates persistent
network namespaces. Alternatively a full path to a netns can be given.
The --nsrun-dir option allows the user to change the standard path where
netns names are resolved. However, there's no real point to this, if the
user wants to override the location of the netns, they can just as easily
use the full path to specify the netns.

The man page states that the --userns option can be given either as a path
or as a name relative to --nsrun-dir. This is not correct: as the name
suggests --nsrun-dir is (correctly) used only for *netns* resolution, not
*userns* resolution.

Both the -D (--dns) and -S (--search) options take an optional argument.
If the argument is omitted the option is disabled entirely. However,
handling the optional argument requires some ugly special case handling if
it's the last option on the command line, and has potential ambiguity with
non-option arguments used with pasta. It can also make it more confusing
to read command lines.
Simplify the logic here by replacing the non-argument versions with an
explicit "-D none" or "-S none".

There are several places in the passt code where we have lint overrides
because we're not adding CLOEXEC flags to open or other operations.
Comments suggest this is because it's before we fork() into the background
but we'll need those file descriptors after we're in the background.
However, as the name suggests CLOEXEC closes on exec(), not on fork(). The
only place we exec() is either super early invoke the avx2 version of the

require the fds in question.

The test scripts run with sh -e, which means they will stop if any commands
return an error. That's generally desirable, because we won't continue
after things are hopeless due to an earlier step failing.
Unfortunately, the tmux setup we run the script in means it's not obvious
where any error messages related to such a failure will go. Depending on
exactly where the error occurs they might go to the original terminal
hidden behind tmux, or they might go to a tmux panel that's not visible in
the normal layouts.
To make it easier to find such error message, redirect direct output and
errors from the test script itself to a 'script.log' file in the logs
directory. When in DEBUG=1 mode, additionaly 'set -x' so we log all the
commands we execute to that file.

The "valgrind" test cases are designed to pick up errors reported when
passt is running under valgrind. But what it actually does is just kill
the passt process, then see if it had a non-zero exit code. That means it
will equally well pick up any other problems which caused passt to exit
with an error status: either something detected within passt or as a result
of passt being killed by an unexpected signal.
The fact that the "valgrind" test is actually responsible for shutting down
the passt process is non-obvious and can lead to problems when selectively
running tests during debugging.
Rename the "valgrind" tests to "shutdown" tests and run it regardless of
whether we're using valgrind or not. This allows us to remove an ugly
speacial case in the passt_in_ns teardown code.

git_dir_changelog is useful in theory, but it requires pairs of

mention that:
[t]hey must never simply contain an entire copy of the source
CHANGELOG entries.
We don't have a CHANGELOG file, but the full git history is
conceptually equivalent for this purpose, I guess.
Introduce our own passt_git_changelog() rpkg macro, building
changelog entries, using tags in the form DATE-SHA, where DATE
is an ISO 8601 date representation, and SHA is a short (7-digits)
form of the head commit at a given moment (git push).
These changelog entries mention, specifically, changes to the
packaging information itself (entries under contrib/fedora), and
simply report a link to cgit for the ranges between tags.

Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
The context structure contains a batch of fields specific to IPv4 and to
IPv6 connectivity. Split those out into a sub-structure.
This allows the conf_ip4() and conf_ip6() functions, which take the
entire context but touch very little of it, to be given more specific
parameters, making it clearer what it affects without stepping through the
code.
Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
After recent changes, conf_ip() now has essentially entirely disjoint paths
for IPv4 and IPv6 configuration. So, it's cleaner to split them out into
different functions conf_ip4() and conf_ip6().
Splitting these out also lets us make the interface a bit nicer, having
them return success or failure directly, rather than manipulating c->v4
and c->v6 to indicate success/failure of the two versions.
Since these functions may also initialize the interface index for each
protocol, it turns out we can then drop c->v4 and c->v6 entirely, replacing
tests on those with tests on whether c->ifi4 or c->ifi6 is non-zero (since
a 0 interface index is never valid).

The v4 and v6 fields of the context structure can be confusing, because
they change meaning part way through the code: Before conf_ip(), they are
booleans which indicate whether the -4 or -6 options have been given.
After conf_ip() they are DISABLED|ENABLED|PROBE enums which indicate
whether the IP version is available (which means both that it was allowed
on the command line and we were able to configure it). The PROBE variant
of the enum is only used locally within conf_ip() and since recent changes
there it no longer has a real purpose different from ENABLED.
Simplify this all by making the context fields always just a boolean
indicating the availability of the IP version. They both default to 1, but
can be set to 0 by either command line options or configuration failures.
We use some local variables in conf() for tracking the state of the command
line options on their own.

In pasta mode, the guest's MAC address is set up in pasta_ns_cobf() called

--ns-mac-addr, this will set the given MAC on the kernel tuntap device, or
if we haven't configured one it will update our record of the guest MAC to
the kernel assigned one from the device.
For passt, we don't initially know the guest's MAC until we receive packets
from it, so we have to initially use a broadcast address. This is - oddly
- set up in an entirely different place, in conf_ip() conditional on the
mode.
Move it to the logically matching place for passt - tap_sock_unix_init().
Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au>
When sending packets to the guest we need a source MAC address, which we
currently take from the host side interface we're using (though it's
basically arbitrary). However if not given on the command line this MAC
is initialized in an IPv4 specific path, and will end up as
00:00:00:00:00:00 when running "passt 6". The MAC address is also used
for IPv6 packets, though.
Interestingly, we largely seem to get away with using an all-zero MAC, but
it's probably not a good idea. Make the IPv6 path pick the MAC address
from its interface if the IPv4 path hasn't already done so.
While we're there, use the existing MAC_IS_ZERO macro to make the code a
little clearer.
