First make sure that the input is xhtml as the stylesheets expect
namespaced element, then use a span element instead of a as a
is treated specially, finally adjust the makefile to check for
the new span element and replace it with the PHP code
* configure.ac docs/news.html.in libvirt.spec.in: update for the new release
* po/*.po*: update from transifex, a lot of added support e.g. Indian
languages, and regenerate
The commits d575679401 and
080bf330e3 made use directly of
macro defined in recent linux netlink version. Make those
part conditional on the definition
* daemon/libvirtd.c: do not use NETLINK_ROUTE and NETLINK_KOBJECT_UEVENT
without some check first
The 'make check' was rebuilding the binaries just overrided,
so for more safety also override the C program
Also daemon-conf isn't built anymore so remove it from the list
This is based on recent developments on patch checker and the
goal is to keep a list of pending patches needing review on the
project web site. The page template in git just holds a pointer
to the web page.
* configure.ac docs/news.html.in libvirt.spec.in: update for the release
* po/*.po*: updated a number of languages translation including new
indian languages and regenerated
The blocks to extract node information on a per-arch
basis wasn't well balanced leading to a compilation
failure if not on one of the handled arches (PCs and PPCs)
* python/libvirt-override.c: remove the predefined array in the
virConnectListDomainsID binding and call virConnectNumOfDomains
to do a proper allocation
This patch is based on a improvement suggested by Kazuhiro Kikuchi
of Fujitsu, it gives a description of the target parameter for that
command
* tools/virsh.pod: add description for target parameter of
attach-interface
The man page suggest that the cpu_shares parameter of schedinfo
allows values 0-262144, but the kernel remaps values 0 and 1 to
the minimum 2, just document that behaviour:
[root@test ~]# cat /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu/cpu.shares
1024
[root@test ~]# echo 0 > /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu/cpu.shares
[root@test ~]# cat /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu/cpu.shares
2
[root@test ~]# echo 1 > /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu/cpu.shares
[root@test ~]# cat /cgroup/cpu/libvirt/qemu/cpu.shares
2
[root@test ~]#
* tools/virsh.pod: update description of the cpu_shares parameter
to indicate the values 0 and 1 are automatically changed by the
kernel to minimal value 2
remoteRelayDomainEventBlockJob, remoteRelayDomainEventIOError,
remoteRelayDomainEventIOErrorReason and remoteRelayDomainEventGraphics
were using const string directly in rpc structure, before calling
remoteDispatchDomainEventSend(). But that routine now frees up all
the pointed allocated memory from the rpc structure and we end up
with a double free.
This now strdup() all the strings passed and provide mem_error goto
labels to be used when an allocation error occurs.
Note that the cleanup isn't completely finished because all relaying
function also call make_nonnull_domain() which also allocate a string
and never handle the error case. This patches doesn't try to address
this as this is only error correctness a priori and touches far more
functions in this module:
* daemon/remote.c: fix string allocations and memory error handling
for remoteRelayDomainEventBlockJob, remoteRelayDomainEventIOError,
remoteRelayDomainEventIOErrorReason and remoteRelayDomainEventGraphics
This is a bit painful for example when starting virt-manager
it tends to clutter libvirtd.log with invalid operation on cpu pinning
for defined but not running domains. A priori those kind of errors
don't indicate an error when executing the command but on a precondition
for running the API, and honnestly while the application should report
it, logging it as an error in libvirtd.log is not really useful,

* daemon/libvirtd.c: extend daemonErrorLogFilter() to filter out
errors of type VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID
* configure.ac docs/news.html.in libvirt.spec.in: updates for new
release
* po/*.po*: pulled translations from the transifex teams and regenerated
localizations
This fixes a number of issues most of them raised by Eric Blake on the
generated documentation output:
- parsing of "long long int" and similar
- add parsing of unions within a struct
- remove spurious " * " fron comments on structure fields and enums
- fix concatenation of base type and name in arrays
- extend XSLT to cope with union in structs
* docs/apibuild.py: fix and extend API extraction tool
* docs/newapi.xsl: extend the stylesheets to cope with union in
public structures
Apparently introdunced in commit 376e1d9420
the generator produces u_int flags not unsigned int flags.
* src/remote_protocol-structs: fix to the actual expected type and
alignment
* configure.ac libvirt.spec.in docs/news.html.in: update and document
the release

and vietnamese coming from transifex, regenerate
When you happen to have a libvirtd binary compiled with the
libxenlight driver (say you have installed xen-4.1 libraries)
but not running a xen enabled system, then libvirtd fails to start.
The cause is that libxlStartup() returns -1 when failing to initialize
the library, and this propagates to virStateInitialize() which consider
this a failure. We should only exit libxlStartup with an error code
if something like an allocation error occurs, not if the driver failed
to initialize.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c: fix libxlStartup() to not return -1
when failing to initialize the libxenlight library
Some things to note in this patch:
- we do extend libvirt scope beyond purely managing domains, there is
already a number of blocks which are here as helpr functions to
manage the resources on the host.
- we are expanding in the direction of libvirt being sufficient to do
most of the management on the Host (but within the limits of the need
for virtualization, e.g. managing users on the host is out of scope)
- we don't require anymore APIs to be supported by multiple
hypervisors to get in, it's already the case in practice, but we
should still make sure the semantic of those APIs are clear. We
added quite a bit for QEmu, but for example I saw on IRC that VBox
could emulate a network unplug/replug on a domain interface, and
that would be a good addition even if a priori no other hypervisor
supports it.
- Make clear that all libvirt APIs are available remotely, which is
key to use libvirt for building management tools.
- link the goal page from the project main page
As for libvirt project directions, I think it just reflects the natural
evolution in the last couple of years. We are less hypervisor agnostic
and extending in the Host management. Clearly there is interest in
making sure libvirt is complete in term of features for the hypervisors
supported, especially the ones like KVM or LXC which don't really have
integrated management library.
* docs/goals.html.in: update the goals page
* docs/index.html.in: link it from the top page
Wen Congyang gained commiter access
Created a new section of previous commiters to the project
but not involved much anymore: Karel Zak, Atsushi SAKAI,
Dave Leskovec and Dan Smith
* docs/logging.html.in: document the fact that starting from
0.9.0 the server logs goes to libvirtd.log instead of syslog
by default, describe the debug buffer, restructure the page
and add a couple more examples
As pointed out, locking the buffer from the signal handler
cannot been guaranteed to be safe, so to avoid any hazard
we prefer the trade off of dumping logs possibly messed up
by concurrent logging activity rather than risk a daemon
crash.
* src/util/logging.c: change virLogEmergencyDumpAll() to not
take any lock on the log buffer but reset buffer content variables
to an empty set before starting the actual dump.
This is the part allowing to dynamically resize the debug log
buffer from it's default 64kB size. The buffer is now dynamically
allocated.
It adds a new API virLogSetBufferSize() which resizes the buffer
If passed a zero size, the buffer is deallocated and we do the small
optimization of not formatting messages which are not output anymore.
On the daemon side, it just adds a new option log_buffer_size to
libvirtd.conf and call virLogSetBufferSize() if needed
* src/util/logging.h src/util/logging.c src/libvirt_private.syms:
make buffer dynamic and add virLogSetBufferSize() internal API
* daemon/libvirtd.conf: document the new log_buffer_size option
* daemon/libvirtd.c: read and use the new log_buffer_size option
Apparently some signals found on Unix are not exposed, this led
to a compilation failure
* src/util/logging.c: make code related to each signal dependant
upon the definition of that signal
* src/util/logging.c: fix virLogDumpAllFD() to avoid snprintf, simplify
the code and provide more useful signal descriptions. Also remove an
unused variable.
In case of imminent crash or upon request (signal USR2),
dump the logging buffer to the libvirtd.log file for
post-mortem analysis
* daemon/libvirtd.c: create a sig_fatal() handler connected to
SIGFPE SIGSEGV SIGILL SIGABRT SIGBUS and SIGUSR2, just dumping
the log buffer using virLogEmergencyDumpAll
virLogEmergencyDumpAll() allows to dump the content of the
debug buffer from within a signal handler. It saves to all
log file or stderr if none is found
* src/util/logging.h src/util/logging.c: add the new API
and cleanup the old virLogDump code
* src/libvirt_private.syms: exports it as a private symbol
As the file may grow quite a bit especially with debug turned on.
* daemon/libvirtd.logrotate.in daemon/Makefile.am libvirt.spec.in:
add new logrotate file for the daemon log
Syslog is not the best place to go search for libvirt error
logs, change it to a default file output libvirtd.log, but
still keep standard error if not run as a daemon.
Depending on whether it's run as root or user, the log is saved
in the local state dir or in $HOME/.libvirt.
* daemon/libvirtd.c: change default logging to go to libvirtd.log
Initially only the log actually written out by libvirt were
saved on the memory buffer, this patch forces all informations
including info and debug to be saved in memory too. This is
useful to get full data in case of crash.
* configure.ac docs/news.html.in libvirt.spec.in: bump version and add docs
* po/*.po*: updated Gujarati, Polish and Dutch localisations and regenerated
The code in SELinuxRestoreSecurityChardevLabel() was trying to
use SELinuxSetFilecon directly for devices or file types while
it should really use SELinuxRestoreSecurityFileLabel encapsulating
routine, which avoid various problems like resolving symlinks,
making sure he file exists and work around NFS problems
