Jiri Denemark reported an instance of bootstrapping libvirt
failing when run inside a sandbox, traced to rpm trying to
access /var/ which was not permitted by the sandbox.
Alex Jia reported that 0.9.8-rc1 failed to bootstrap if patch(1)
is not installed.
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Avoid rpm call if python-config
exists. Also, require patch, in case we have gnulib-local diffs.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=738725
Commit ecd8725 tried to silence a spurious warning on the initial
libvirt install, and commit ba6cbb1 tried to fix up the logic to the
correct Fedora version, but the warning was still present due to a
logic bug: since %{fedora} and %{rhel} are never simulatanously
set, then 0%{rhel} <= 6 made the %if always true. Checking for
minimum versions (via >=) is okay, but checking for maximum versions
(via <=) requires a prerequisite test that the platform being tested
is non-zero.
Also fix a bogus setting of with_libxl (although we previously
hard-code with_libxl to 0 for rhel earlier in the file, so this
was not as severe a bug).
* libvirt.spec.in (with_cgconfig): Don't enable cgconfig on F16.
Over time, Fedora and RHEL RPMs have often backported upstream
patches that touched configure.ac and/or Makefile.am; this
necessitates rerunning the autotools for the patch to be effective.
Making this a one-liner spec tweak will make it easier for future
backports to pull patches without having to find all the places
to touch to properly use the autotools. Meanwhile, there have been
historical instances where an update in the autotools caused FTBFS
situations, so this is not on by default.
* libvirt.spec.in (enable_autotools): New variable, default off.
(BuildRequires): Conditionally add autotools.
(%build): Conditionally use them before configure.
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in: Likewise.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=694403 reports that
the specfile is incorrectly checking for a running libvirt-guests
service. For example,
$ LC_ALL=es_ES chkconfig --list libvirt-guests
libvirt-guests 0:desactivado 1:desactivado 2:desactivado 3:activo 4:activo 5:activo 6:desactivado
will fail to find 5:on, even though it is active. But chkconfig
already has a mode where you can silently use the exit status to
check for an active service.
* libvirt.spec.in (%post): Use simpler chkconfig options, to avoid
issues with localization.
On RHEL 5, with libxml2-2.6.26, the build failed with:
virsh.c: In function 'vshNodeIsSuperset':

* src/util/xml.c (virXMLChildElementCount): New function.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (xml.h): Export it.
* tools/virsh.c (vshNodeIsSuperset): Use it.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=754909 complains that
because libvirt didn't require dmidecode, that the logs are noisy
and virConnectGetSysinfo needlessly fails. Even 'virt-what' requires
dmidecode, so it's not that onerous of a dependency. We may be
able to drop this in the future when we move to parsing sysfs data,
but for now, listing the dependency will help matters.
* libvirt.spec.in (Requires): Sort Requires before BuildRequires.
Add dmidecode.
Older gcc warns (on every file!) that -Wabi and -Wdeprecated only

We want our tarballs to be complete - this means that any
generated file that gets shipped as part of the tarball so that
ordinary users don't have to rebuild it must be something
that the maintainer can generate. There have been various
reports of random build failures when using libvirt.git
instead of a tarball, and often it is due to missing a
maintainer-specific tool to produce one of these generated
files. This patch raises the bar for what you must have
installed to build libvirt.git, but does not impact what
you can get away with for building tarballs.
Note: It still remains possible to do a successful 'make dist'
without these tools, when starting from a release tarball.
* bootstrap.conf (buildreq): Add tools that maintainers need for a
successful 'make dist' from a fresh git checkout.
virBufferContentAndReset (intentionally) returns NULL for a buffer
with no content, but it is feasible to invoke a command with an
explicit empty string.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandAddEnvBuffer): Reject empty string.
(virCommandAddArgBuffer): Allow explicit empty argument.
* tests/commandtest.c (test9): Test it.
* tests/commanddata/test9.log: Adjust.
The RPC fixups needed on Linux are also needed on cygwin, and
worked without further tweaking to the list of fixups. Also,
unlike BSD, Cygwin exports 'struct ifreq', but unlike Linux,
Cygwin lacks the ioctls that we were using 'struct ifreq' to
access. This patch allows compilation under cygwin.
* src/rpc/genprotocol.pl: Also perform fixups on cygwin.
* src/util/virnetdev.c (HAVE_STRUCT_IFREQ): Also require AF_PACKET
definition.
* src/util/virnetdevbridge.c (virNetDevSetupControlFull): Only
compile if SIOCBRADDBR works.
I had previously tested commit 059d746 with -O intentionally omitted
from my CFLAGS; but that means that I missed out on this warning
from gcc 4.6.2 when optimizations are enabled:
util/buf.c: In function 'virBufferGetIndent':
util/buf.c:86:1: error: function might be candidate for attribute 'pure' [-Werror=suggest-attribute=pure]
While it is probably a good idea to add the attributes and silence
this warning, it's also invasive; 'make -k' found more than 75 such
complaints. And it doesn't help that gcc 4.6.2 is still buggy
(coreutils reported a case where gcc 4.6.2 incorrectly suggested
marking a function pure that incremented a global variable; fixed
in gcc 4.7). So the best fix for now is to disable the warning.
It also doesn't help that I stumbled across another problem - gcc
documents that -Wsuggest-attribute=pure only warns if you use -O,
or if you use -fipa-pure-const. But in practice, when I omitted -O
but added -fipa-pure-const, the warnings are fickle - I got warnings
for simple compilation that disappeared when I also added -fPIC.
And the way libtool compiles things is with -fPIC first, then without
-fPIC but with errors sent to /dev/null - which meant that without
disabling -Wsuggest-attribute=pure, I got a compile error with no
message. :( See http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=10197
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4 (LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS): Silence
-Wsuggest-attribute warnings for now.
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for improved 'make syntax-check' and
compiler warnings.
* m4/virt-compile-warnings.m4 (LIBVIRT_COMPILE_WARNINGS):
Re-silence -Wformat-nonliteral.
* cfg.mk (_test_script_regex): Recognize our test scripts.
* gnulib/local/lib/*.diff: Drop, now that gnulib has this.
* tests/virsh-optparse: Fix use of compare.
* tests/virsh-schedinfo: Likewise.
probes.h can only be generated on Linux, and then only with dtrace
installed. If it is part of the tarball, then either 'make dist'
will fail if you don't have that setup, or we would have to start
keeping probes.h in libvirt.git. Since we only need it to be
generated when dtrace is in use, it's better to avoid shipping
it in the first place, and avoid tracking it in git.
Meanwhile, there is a build dependency - since the RPC code is
generated, it can be built early; but when dtrace is enabled, we
must ensure probes.h is built even earlier. Commit 1afcfbdd tried
to fix this, but did so in a way that added probes.h into the
tarball, and broke VPATH as well. Commit ecbca767 fixed VPATH,
but didn't fix the more fundamental problem. This patch solves
the issue by adding a dependency instead.
Tested with 'make dist' in a clean VPATH builds, for both
'./configure --without-dtrace' and './configure --with-dtrace';
all configurations were able to correctly build a tarball, and
the dtrace configuration no longer sticks probes.h in the tarball.
* src/Makefile.am (REMOTE_DRIVER_GENERATED): Don't ship probes.h;
rather, make it a dependency.
We have several directories that are created on the fly, and which
only contain state relevant to a running libvirtd process (all
located in /var/run). Since the directories are created as needed,
and make no sense without a running libvirtd, we want them deleted
if libvirt is uninstalled. And in F15 and newer, /var/run is on
tmpfs (forcing us to recreate on the fly); which means that someone
trying to verify a complete rpm will fail if the directory does not
currently exist because libvirtd has not been started since boot.
The solution, then, is to mark the directories as %ghost, so that
rpm knows that we own them and will clean it up if libvirt is
uninstalled, but will no longer create the directory for us at
install, nor complain at verify time if the directory does not exist.
See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=656611.
* libvirt.spec.in (%files): Add %ghost to temporary directories
that we don't install, but want cleaned up on libvirt removal.
Prior to this patch, for a running dom, the commands:
$ virsh blkiotune dom --device-weights /dev/sda,502,/dev/sdb,498
$ virsh blkiotune dom --device-weights /dev/sda,503
$ virsh blkiotune dom
weight : 500
device_weight : /dev/sda,503
claim that /dev/sdb no longer has a non-default weight, but
directly querying cgroups says otherwise:
$ cat /cgroup/blkio/libvirt/qemu/dom/blkio.weight_device
8:0 503
8:16 498
After this patch, an explicit 0 is required to remove a device path
from the XML, and omitting a device path that was previously
specified leaves that device path untouched in the XML, to match
cgroups behavior.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (parseBlkioWeightDeviceStr): Rename...
(qemuDomainParseDeviceWeightStr): ...and use correct type.
(qemuDomainSetBlkioParameters): After parsing string, modify
rather than replacing existing table.
* tools/virsh.pod (blkiotune): Tweak wording.
The next patch will make it possible to have virDomainSetBlkioParameters
leave device weights unchanged if they are not mentioned in the incoming
string, but this only works if the list of block weights does not allow
duplicate paths. Technically, a user can still confuse libvirt by
passing alternate spellings that resolve to the same device, but it
is not worth worrying about working around that kind of abuse.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefParseXML): Require unique
paths.
Without this, 'virsh blkiotune --live --config --weight=n'
only affected live.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSetBlkioParameters): Allow
setting both configurations at once.
After the previous patch, there are now some redundant checks.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudDomainGetVcpuPinInfo)
(qemuGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Drop checks now guaranteed by
libvirt.c.
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c (lxcGetSchedulerParametersFlags):
Likewise.
Drivers were inconsistent when presented both --live and --config
at once. For example, within qemu, getting memory parameters
favored live, getting blkio tuning favored config, and getting
scheduler parameters errored out. Also, some, but not all,
attempts to mix flags on query were filtered at the virsh level.
We shouldn't have to duplicate efforts in every client app, nor
in every driver. So, it is simpler to just enforce that the two
flags cannot both be used at once on query operations, which has
precedent in libvirt.c, and which matches the documentation of
virDomainModificationImpact.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainGetMemoryParameters)
(virDomainGetBlkioParameters)
(virDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags, virDomainGetVcpuPinInfo):
Borrow sanity checking from virDomainGetVcpusFlags.
Generally, functions which return malloc'd strings should be typed
as 'char *', not 'const char *', to make it obvious that the caller
is responsible to free things. free(const char *) fails to compile,
and although we have a cast embedded in VIR_FREE to work around poor
code that frees const char *, it's better to not rely on that hack.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDiskPathToAlias): Change return type.
(qemuDomainBlockJobImpl): Update caller.
Given that we can now handle the target's disk shorthand, in addition
to an absolute path to the file or block device used on the host,
the term 'disk' fits a bit better as the parameter name than 'path'.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: Update some parameter names.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainBlockStats, virDomainBlockStatsFlags)
(virDomainBlockPeek, virDomainGetBlockInfo, virDomainBlockJobAbort)
(virDomainGetBlockJobInfo, virDomainBlockJobSetSpeed)
(virDomainBlockPull): Likewise.
Commit 89b6284f made it possible to pass either a source name or
the target device to most API demanding a disk designation, but
forgot to update the documentation. It also failed to update
virDomainBlockStats to take both forms. This patch fixes both the
documentation and the remaining function.
Xen continues to use just device shorthand (that is, I did not
implement path lookup there, since xen does not track a domain_conf
to quickly tie a path back to the device shorthand).
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainBlockStats, virDomainBlockStatsFlags)
(virDomainGetBlockInfo, virDomainBlockPeek)
(virDomainBlockJobAbort, virDomainGetBlockJobInfo)
(virDomainBlockJobSetSpeed, virDomainBlockPull): Document
acceptable disk naming conventions.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainBlockStats)
(qemuDomainBlockStatsFlags): Allow lookup by source name.
* src/test/test_driver.c (testDomainBlockStats): Likewise.
None of the callers cared if str was updated to point to the next
byte after the parsed cpuset; simplifying this results in quite
a few code simplifications. Additionally, virCPUDefParseXML was
strdup()'ing a malloc()'d string; avoiding a memory copy resulted
in less code.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainCpuSetParse): Alter signature.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainCpuSetParse): Don't modify str.
(virDomainVcpuPinDefParseXML, virDomainDefParseXML): Adjust

I installed the xen development packages on my non-Xen F16 machine
in order to compile-test xen code and ensure we don't break things
on that front, but being a non-xen machine, /usr/sbin/xend is
obviously not running. Unfortunately, xen-4.1.2-1.fc16 has a bug
where merely trying to probe xend status on a non-xen kernel causes
xend to issue an ABRT crash report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=728696
Even though libvirt (correctly) skips the test, the xend crash report
is unnecessary noise. Fix this by first filtering out non-xen
kernels even before attempting to probe xend. The test still runs
and passes on a RHEL 5 xen kernel after this patch.
* tests/reconnect.c (mymain): Skip xend probe on non-xen kernel.
* tests/statstest.c (mymain): Likewise.
The original patch for commit 4789fb2 considered renaming a file,
then backed out the name change, but forgot to back out the POTFILES.in
change, resulting in 'make syntax-check' failure.
For whatever reason, the kernel allows you to create a regular
file named /dev/sdc.12345; although this file will disappear the
next time devtmpfs is remounted. If you let libvirt generate
the name of the external snapshot for a disk image originally
using the block device /dev/sdc, then the domain will be rendered
unbootable once the qcow2 file is lost on the next devtmpfs
remount. In this case, the user should have used 'virsh
snapshot-create --xmlfile' or 'virsh snapshot-create-as --diskspec'
to specify the name for the qcow2 file in a sane location, rather
than relying on libvirt generating a name that is most likely to
be wrong. We can help avoid naive mistakes by enforcing that
the user provide the external name for any backing file that is
not a regular file.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotAlignDisks): Only
generate names if backing file exists as regular file.

Qemu will be the first driver to make use of a typed string in the
next round of additions. Separate out the trivial addition.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemudSupportsFeature): Advertise feature.
(qemuDomainGetBlkioParameters, qemuDomainGetMemoryParameters)
(qemuGetSchedulerParametersFlags, qemudDomainBlockStatsFlags):
Allow typed strings flag where trivially supported.
Send and receive string typed parameters across RPC. This also
completes the back-compat mentioned in the previous patch - the
only time we have an older client talking to a newer server is
if RPC is in use, so filtering out strings during RPC prevents
returning an unknown type to the older client.
* src/remote/remote_protocol.x (remote_typed_param_value): Add
another union value.
* daemon/remote.c (remoteDeserializeTypedParameters): Handle
strings on rpc.
(remoteSerializeTypedParameters): Likewise; plus filter out
strings when replying to older clients. Adjust callers.
* src/remote/remote_driver.c (remoteFreeTypedParameters)
(remoteSerializeTypedParameters)
(remoteDeserializeTypedParameters): Handle strings on rpc.
* src/rpc/gendispatch.pl: Properly clean up typed arrays.

This allows strings to be transported between client and server
in the context of name-type-value virTypedParameter functions.
For compatibility,
o new clients will not send strings to old servers, based on
a feature check
o new servers will not send strings to old clients without the
flag VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING_OKAY; this will be enforced at
the RPC layer in the next patch, so that drivers need not
worry about it in general. The one exception is that
virDomainGetSchedulerParameters lacks a flags argument, so
it must not return a string; drivers that forward that
function on to virDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags will
have to pay attention to the flag.
o the flag VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING_OKAY is set automatically,
based on a feature check (so far, no driver implements it),
so clients do not have to worry about it
Future patches can then enable the feature on a per-driver basis.
This patch also ensures that drivers can blindly strdup() field
names (previously, a malicious client could stuff 80 non-NUL bytes
into field and cause a read overrun).

This reverts commit ef1065cf5ac; see also this bug report:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=751900
In qemu 0.15.1 and earlier, during migration to file, the
qemu_savevm_state_begin and qemu_savevm_state_iterate methods
will both process as much migration data as possible until either
1. The file descriptor returns EAGAIN
2. The bandwidth rate limit is reached
If we set the rate limit to ULONG_MAX, test 2 never becomes true. We're
passing a plain file descriptor to QEMU and POSIX does not support EAGAIN on
regular files / block devices, so test 1 never becomes true either.
In the 'virsh save --bypass-cache' case, we pass a pipe instead of a
regular fd, but using a pipe adds I/O overhead, so always passing a
pipe just so qemu can see EAGAIN doesn't seem nice.
The ultimate fix needs to come from qemu - background migration must
respect asynchronous abort requests, or else periodically return
control to the main handling loop without an EAGAIN and without
waiting to hit an insanely large amount of data. But until a
version of qemu is fixed to support "unlimited" data rates while
still allowing cancellation, the best we can do is avoid the
automatic use of unlimited rates from within libvirt (users can
still explicitly change the migration rates, if they are aware that
they are giving up the ability to cancel a job).
Reverting the lone use of QEMU_DOMAIN_FILE_MIG_BANDWIDTH_MAX is
the simplest patch; this slows migration back down to a default
32M/sec cap, but also ensures that the main qemu processing loop
will still be responsive to cancellation requests. Hopefully
upstream qemu will provide us a means of safely using unlimited
speed, including a runtime probe of that capability.

Commit f7bd00c12 pulled in a gnulib module that fails to compile
on mingw. While it would be nice to pull in a newer version of
.gnulib that fixes this, it is difficult to backport any .gnulib
update to older releases. So, it makes sense to take advantage
of gnulib-tool's ability to support local diffs, where we can
apply specific diffs in our use of gnulib without waiting for
upstream gnulib to pick up those changes, as well as avoiding
a wholesale .gnulib update. The existence of local diffs will
also make it easier to backport fixes against a tarball (as long
as a tarball and libvirt.git share the same .gnulib commit, then
the tarball can be patched by applying the same local diffs as
a post-release libvirt.git commit, without having to rerun an
entire gnulib-tool bootstrap).
This patch introduces the framework for supporting local diffs,
without actually introducing any.
* bootstrap.conf (local_gl_dir): New variable.
* autogen.sh (bootstrap_hash): Hash any local diffs, to force a

MacOS lacks ptsname_r, and gnulib doesn't (yet) provide it.
But we can avoid it altogether, by using gnulib openpty()
instead. Note that we do _not_ want the pt_chown module;
gnulib uses it only to implement a replacement openpty() if
the system lacks both openpty() and granpt(), but all
systems that we currently port to either have at least one of
openpty() and/or grantpt(), or lack ptys altogether. That is,
we aren't porting to any system that requires us to deal with
the hassle of installing a setuid pt_chown helper just to use
gnulib's ability to provide openpty() on obscure platforms.

always be checked, to avoid problems with leaking resources.
* src/lxc/lxc_controller.c (lxcControllerRun): Use simpler virPidAbort.
Allow the user to call with nparams too small, per API documentation.
* src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c (xenHypervisorGetSchedulerParameters):
Allow fewer than max.
* src/xen/xend_internal.c (xenDaemonGetSchedulerParameters):
Likewise.
libvirt.c guarantees that nparams is non-zero for scheduler parameters.
* src/test/test_driver.c (testDomainGetSchedulerParamsFlags): Drop
redundant check. Avoid strcpy.
Allow the user to call with nparams too small, per API documentation.
Also, libvirt.c filters out nparams of 0 for scheduler parameters.
* src/lxc/lxc_driver.c (lxcDomainGetMemoryParameters): Allow fewer
than max.
(lxcGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Drop redundant check.
Allow the user to call with nparams too small, per API documentation.
* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c
(libxlDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Allow fewer than max.
Allow the user to call with nparams too small, per API documentation.
* src/esx/esx_driver.c (esxDomainGetMemoryParameters): Drop
redundant check.
(esxDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Allow fewer than max.
Document the parameter names that will be used by
virDomain{Get,Set}SchedulerParameters{,Flags}, rather than
hard-coding those names in each driver, to match what is
done with memory, blkio, and blockstats parameters.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in (VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_CPU_SHARES)
(VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_VCPU_PERIOD)

(VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_CAP, VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_RESERVATION)
(VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_LIMIT, VIR_DOMAIN_SCHEDULER_SHARES): New
field name macros.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuSetSchedulerParametersFlags)
(qemuGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Use new defines.
* src/test/test_driver.c (testDomainGetSchedulerParamsFlags)
(testDomainSetSchedulerParamsFlags): Likewise.

* src/libxl/libxl_driver.c (libxlDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags)
(libxlDomainSetSchedulerParametersFlags): Likewise.
Since all virTypedParameter APIs allow us to return the number
of slots we actually populated, we should allow the user to
call with nparams too small (without overrunning their array)
or too large (ignoring the tail of the array that we can't fill),
rather than requiring that they get things exactly right.
Making this change will make it easier for a future patch to
introduce VIR_TYPED_PARAM_STRING, with filtering in libvirt.c
rather than in every single driver, since users already have
to be prepared for *nparams to be smaller on exit than on entry.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainGetBlkioParameters)
(qemuDomainGetMemoryParameters): Allow variable nparams on entry.
(qemuGetSchedulerParametersFlags): Drop redundant check.
(qemudDomainBlockStats, qemudDomainBlockStatsFlags): Rename...
(qemuDomainBlockStats, qemuDomainBlockStatsFlags): ...to this.
Don't return unavailable stats.
virDomainBlockStatsFlags was missing a check that was present in
virDomainGetMemoryParameters. Additionally, I found that the
existing descriptions were a bit hard to read. A later patch
will fix qemu to return fewer than max parameters if @nparams
was too small on input.
* src/libvirt.c (virDomainGetMemoryParameters)
(virDomainGetBlkioParameters, virDomainGetSchedulerParameters)
(virDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags):
Tweak documentation wording.
(virDomainBlockStatsFlags): Likewise, and add sanity check.
Detected by Coverity. The fix in 2c27dfa didn't catch all bad
instances of memcpy(). Thankfully, on further analysis, all of
the problematic uses are only triggered by old qemu that lacks
-device.
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c (qemuDomainAttachPciDiskDevice)
(qemuDomainAttachNetDevice, qemuDomainAttachHostPciDevice): Init
all fields since monitor only populates some of them.
Rather than making all clients of monitor commands that are JSON-only
check whether yajl support was compiled in, it is simpler to just
avoid setting the capability bit up front if we can't use the capability.
* src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c (qemuCapsComputeCmdFlags): Only set
capability bit if we also have yajl library to use it.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainReboot): Drop #ifdefs.
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessStart): Likewise.
* tests/qemuhelptest.c (testHelpStrParsing): Pass test even
without yajl.
* tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c (mymain): Simplify use of json flag.
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-disk-drive-error-*.args:
Update expected results to match.
Break some long lines, and use more efficient functions when possible,
such as relying on virBufferEscapeString to skip output on a NULL arg.
Ensure that output does not embed newlines, since auto-indent won't
work in those situations.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainTimerDefFormat): Break output lines.
(virDomainDefFormatInternal, virDomainDiskDefFormat)
(virDomainActualNetDefFormat, virDomainNetDefFormat)
(virDomainHostdevDefFormat): Minor cleanups.
Fixing this involved some refactoring of common code out of
domain_conf and nwfilter_conf into nwfilter_params.
* src/conf/nwfilter_params.h (virNWFilterFormatParamAttributes):
Adjust signature.
* src/conf/nwfilter_params.c (_formatParameterAttrs)
(virNWFilterFormatParamAttributes): Adjust indentation handling,
and handle filterref here.
(formatterParam): Delete unused struct.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainNetDefFormat): Adjust caller.
* src/conf/nwfilter_conf.c (virNWFilterIncludeDefFormat): Likewise.
Detected by Coverity. Only possible if qemu-img gives bogus output,
but we might as well be robust.
* src/storage/storage_backend.c
(virStorageBackendQEMUImgBackingFormat): Check for strstr failure.
Commit 1726a73 hacked around MacOS' lack of fdatasync, since
gnulib did not have it at the time. But now that we use newer
gnulib, we can avoid the hack.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Add fdatasync.
* configure.ac (AC_CHECK_FUNCS_ONCE): Drop our own check.
Splitting into two functions allows the user to call the right
function, rather than having to remember that a *Free function is
an exception to the rule.
* src/conf/storage_conf.h (virStoragePoolSourceClear): New function.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (storage_conf.h): Export it.
* src/conf/storage_conf.c (virStoragePoolSourceFree): Split...
(virStoragePoolSourceClear): ...into new function.
(virStoragePoolDefFree, virStoragePoolDefParseSourceString):
Update callers.

* src/storage/storage_backend_iscsi.c
(virStorageBackendISCSIFindPoolSources): Likewise.
* src/storage/storage_backend_logical.c
(virStorageBackendLogicalFindPoolSources): Likewise.
Detected by Coverity. virStoragePoolSourceFree does not free the
actual passed-in pointer. A bigger patch would be to rename it
virStoragePoolSourceClear to match behavior, or even split it into
two functions depending on needed behavior; but this is the minimal
fix to the one location out of eight that leaked memory.
* src/storage/storage_backend_iscsi.c
(virStorageBackendISCSIFindPoolSources): Free memory.
Based on a report by Coverity. waitpid() can leak resources if it
fails with EINTR, so it should never be used without checking return
status. But we already have a helper function that does that, so
use it in more places.
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c (lxcContainerAvailable): Use safer
virWaitPid.
* daemon/libvirtd.c (daemonForkIntoBackground): Likewise.
* tests/testutils.c (virtTestCaptureProgramOutput, virtTestMain):
Likewise.
* src/libvirt.c (virConnectAuthGainPolkit): Simplify with virCommand.
Detected by Coverity. Both text and JSON monitors set only the
bus and unit fields, which means driveAddr.controller spends
life as garbage on the stack, and is then memcpy()'d into the
in-memory representation which the user can see via dumpxml.
* src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c (qemuDomainAttachSCSIDisk): Only copy
defined fields.
More simplifications possible due to auto-indent. Also,
<bandwidth> within <actual> was only using 6 instead of 8 spaces.
* src/util/network.h (virVirtualPortProfileFormat)
(virBandwidthDefFormat): Alter signature.
* src/util/network.c (virVirtualPortProfileFormat)
(virBandwidthDefFormat): Alter indentation.
(virBandwidthChildDefFormat): Tweak to make use easier.
* src/conf/network_conf.c (virPortGroupDefFormat)
(virNetworkDefFormat): Adjust callers.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainNetDefFormat): Likewise.
(virDomainActualNetDefFormat): Likewise, and fix bandwidth
indentation.
Auto-indent makes life a bit easier; this patch also drops unused
arguments and replaces a misspelled flag name with two entry points
instead, so that callers don't have to worry about how much spacing
is present when embedding cpu elements.
* src/conf/cpu_conf.h (virCPUFormatFlags): Delete.
(virCPUDefFormat): Drop unused argument.
(virCPUDefFormatBuf): Alter signature.
(virCPUDefFormatBufFull): New prototype.
* src/conf/cpu_conf.c (virCPUDefFormatBuf): Split...
(virCPUDefFormatBufFull): ...into new function.
(virCPUDefFormat): Adjust caller.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefFormatInternal): Likewise.
* src/conf/capabilities.c (virCapabilitiesFormatXML): Likewise.
* src/cpu/cpu.c (cpuBaselineXML): Likewise.
* tests/cputest.c (cpuTestCompareXML): Likewise.
The improvements to virBuffer, along with a paradigm shift to pass
the original buffer through rather than creating a second buffer,
allow us to shave off quite a few lines of code.
* src/util/sysinfo.h (virSysinfoFormat): Alter signature.
* src/util/sysinfo.c (virSysinfoFormat, virSysinfoBIOSFormat)
(virSysinfoSystemFormat, virSysinfoProcessorFormat)
(virSysinfoMemoryFormat): Change indentation parameter.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSysinfoDefFormat): Adjust
caller.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuGetSysinfo): Likewise.
Add a test for the simple parts of my indentation changes, and
fix the fallout.
* tests/domainsnapshotxml2xmltest.c: New test.
* tests/Makefile.am (domainsnapshotxml2xmltest_SOURCES): Build it.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotDefFormat): Avoid NULL
deref, match documented order.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainSnapshotDefFormat): Add const.
* tests/domainsnapshotxml2xmlout/all_parameters.xml: Tweak output.
* tests/domainsnapshotxml2xmlout/disk_snapshot.xml: Likewise.
* tests/domainsnapshotxml2xmlout/full_domain.xml: Likewise.
* .gitignore: Exempt new binary.
<domainsnapshot> is the first public instance of <domain> being
used as a sub-element, although we have two other private uses
(runtime state, and migration cookie). Although indentation has
no effect on XML parsing, using it makes the output more consistent.
This uses virBuffer auto-indentation to obtain the effect, for all
but the portions of <domain> that are not generated a line at a
time into the same virBuffer. Further patches will clean up the
remaining problems.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainDefFormatInternal): New prototype.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefFormatInternal): Export.
(virDomainObjFormat, virDomainSnapshotDefFormat): Update callers.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (domain_conf.h): Add new export.
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c (qemuMigrationCookieXMLFormat): Use
new function.
(qemuMigrationCookieXMLFormatStr): Update caller.
Rather than having to adjust all callers in a chain to deal with
indentation, it is nicer to have virBuffer do auto-indentation.
* src/util/buf.h (_virBuffer): Increase size.
(virBufferAdjustIndent, virBufferGetIndent): New prototypes.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (buf.h): Export new functions.
* src/util/buf.c (virBufferAdjustIndent, virBufferGetIndent): New
functions.
(virBufferSetError, virBufferAdd, virBufferAddChar)
(virBufferVasprintf, virBufferStrcat, virBufferURIEncodeString):
Implement auto-indentation.
* tests/virbuftest.c (testBufAutoIndent): Test it.
(testBufInfiniteLoop): Don't rely on internals.
Idea by Daniel P. Berrange.
The next patch wants to add some sanity checking, which would
be a different error than ENOMEM. Many existing callers blindly
report OOM failure if virBuf reports an error, and this will be
wrong in the (unlikely) case that they actually had a usage error
instead; but since the most common error really is ENOMEM, I'm
not going to fix all callers. Meanwhile, new discriminating
callers can react differently depending on what failure happened.
* src/util/buf.c (virBufferSetError): Add parameter.
(virBufferGrow, virBufferVasprintf, virBufferEscapeString)
(virBufferEscapeSexpr, virBufferEscapeShell): Adjust callers.
I had some temporary test failures while working on virbuf
improvements in later patches, with output that looked like:
Expected [<]
Actual [ <]
which is pretty hard to figure out. Adding an Offset designation
made it much easier to find which particular '<' was at the
wrong indentation, to fix the right part of the code.
* tests/testutils.c (virtTestDifference): Make it easier to
diagnose test failures.
Although the compiler wasn't complaining (since it was the pointer,
rather than what was being pointed to, that was actually const), it
looks quite suspicious to call a function with an argument labeled
const when the nature of the pointer (virBufferPtr) is hidden behind
a typedef. Dropping const makes the function declarations easier
to read.
* src/util/buf.h: Drop const from all functions that modify buffer
argument.
* src/util/buf.c (virBufferSetError, virBufferAdd)
(virBufferContentAndReset, virBufferFreeAndReset)
(virBufferAsprintf, virBufferVasprintf, virBufferEscapeString)
(virBufferEscapeSexpr, virBufferEscape): Fix fallout.
Clarify some of the effects of managed passthrough <hostdev> devices;
with recent changes (commit d093547), a nodedev-reattach is only needed
to pair up to an explicit nodedev-dettach (but beware that older
virt-manager has a bug where it uses explicit nodedev-dettach under the
hood when using the gui to hotplug a hostdev device).
* docs/formatdomain.html.in: Mention reattach.
* tools/virsh.pod (nodedev): Mention managed mode.
Noticed when testing new libvirt against old qemu that lacked the
snapshot_blkdev HMP command. Libvirt was mistakenly treating the
command as successful, and re-writing the domain XML to use the
just-created 0-byte file, rendering the domain broken on restart.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c (qemuMonitorTextDiskSnapshot):
Notice another possible error message.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateSingleDiskActive): Don't keep 0-byte file
on failure.
Coverity detected that the only way to get to the cleanup label
is if objectSpec had been successfully allocated, so the null
check was dead code.
* src/esx/esx_vi.c (esxVI_LookupObjectContentByType): Drop
redundant null check.
Detected by Coverity. Leak present since commit 874e65a; and
while commit d50bb45 tried to fix the issue, it missed a path.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainDefParseBootXML): Always clean
up useserial.
Detected by Coverity. p (the pointer to the string) is always true;
when in reality, we wanted to know whether the integer value of the
just-parsed string is '0' or '1'. Logic bug since commit b1b5b51.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c (qemuMonitorTextGetBlockInfo): Set
results to proper value.
Detected by Coverity. If, for some reason, our text monitor input
does not match our assumptions, we end up incrementing p while it
is NULL, then dereferencing the pointer 0x1, which will fault.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c
(qemuMonitorTextGetBlockStatsParamsNumber): Rewrite to avoid
deref of strchr failure. Fix indentation.
Coverity complained that most, but not all, clients of virUUIDParse
were checking for errors. Silence those coverity warnings by
explicitly marking the cases where we trust the input, and fixing
one instance that really should have been checking. In particular,
this silences a rather large percentage of the warnings I saw on my
most recent Coverity analysis run.
* src/util/uuid.h (virUUIDParse): Enforce rules.
* src/util/uuid.c (virUUIDParse): Drop impossible check; at least
Coverity will detect if we break rules and pass NULL.
* src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c (xenapiDomainCreateXML)
(xenapiDomainLookupByID, xenapiDomainLookupByName)
(xenapiDomainDefineXML): Ignore return when we trust data source.
* src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c (nsIDtoChar, vboxIIDToUUID_v3_x)
(vboxCallbackOnMachineStateChange)
(vboxCallbackOnMachineRegistered, vboxStoragePoolLookupByName):
Likewise.
* src/node_device/node_device_hal.c (gather_system_cap): Likewise.
* src/xenxs/xen_sxpr.c (xenParseSxpr): Check for errors.
virCommandTransferFD promises that the fd is no longer owned by
the caller. Normally, we want the fd to remain open until the
child runs, but in error situations, we must close it earlier.
* src/util/command.c (virCommandTransferFD): Close fd now if we
can't track it to close later.
(virCommandKeepFD): Adjust helper to make this easier.
* libvirt.spec.in (%configure): Drop unused %{one} macro.
* mingw32-libvirt.spec.in (%{rhel}): Compile ESX but not HyperV on
mingw build for RHEL.
(%build): Make configure honor spec conditionals. Reorder to
match libvirt.spec.
* autobuild.sh (mingw): Update list to match.
Suggested by Daniel P. Berrange.
With the recent refactoring of qemu snapshot relationships, it
is now trivial to filter on leaves.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainSnapshotObjListCount)
(virDomainSnapshotObjListCopyNames): Handle new flag.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotListNames)
(qemuDomainSnapshotNum, qemuDomainSnapshotListChildrenNames)
(qemuDomainSnapshotNumChildren): Pass new flag through.
