Daniel P. Berrangé d46734e7bf qemu: fix CPU model error probing capabilities for ppc
The CPU driver only supports CPU models for PPC64 architecture, not
plain PPC.

  Failed to probe capabilities for /usr/bin/qemu-system-ppc:
  this function is not supported by the connection driver:
  'ppc' architecture is not supported by CPU driver

Daniel P. Berrangé 9b80e0c12a util: drop support for stack traces with logging
The log filters have supported the use of a "+" before the source match
string to request that a stack trace be emitted for every log message:

  commit 548563956e
  Author: Daniel P. Berrange <berrange@redhat.com>
  Date:   Wed May 9 15:18:56 2012 +0100

    Allow stack traces to be included with log messages

    Sometimes it is useful to see the callpath for log messages.
    This change enhances the log filter syntax so that stack traces
    can be show by setting '1:+NAME' instead of '1:NAME'.

With the huge & ever increasing number of logging statements per file,
this will be incredibly verbose and have a major performance penalty.
This makes the feature impractical to use widely and as such it is not
worth the code maint cost.

Removing this seldom used feature allows us to drop the 'execinfo'
module in gnulib which provides the backtrace() function which doesn't
exist on non-Linux.

Users who want to get stack traces of parts of libvirt can use GDB,
or systemtap for live tracing with minimal perf impact.

Daniel P. Berrangé 16121a88a7 util: convert virIdentity class to use GObject
Converting from virObject to GObject is reasonably straightforward,
as illustrated by this patch for virIdentity

In the header file

 - Remove

     typedef struct _virIdentity virIdentity

 - Add

     #define VIR_TYPE_IDENTITY virIdentity_get_type ()
     G_DECLARE_FINAL_TYPE (virIdentity, vir_identity, VIR, IDENTITY, GObject);

   Which provides the typedef we just removed, and class
   declaration boilerplate and various other constants/macros.

In the source file

 - Change 'virObject parent' to 'GObject parent' in the struct
 - Remove the virClass variable and its initializing call
 - Add

      G_DEFINE_TYPE(virIdentity, vir_identity, G_TYPE_OBJECT)

   which declares the instance & class constructor functions

 - Add an impl of the instance & class constructors
   wiring up the finalize method to point to our dispose impl

In all files

 - Replace VIR_AUTOUNREF(virIdentityPtr) with g_autoptr(virIdentity)

 - Replace virObjectRef/Unref with g_object_ref/unref. Note
   the latter functions do *NOT* accept a NULL object where as
   libvirt's do. If you replace g_object_unref with g_clear_object
   it is NULL safe, but also clears the pointer.

Daniel P. Berrangé 667ff797e8 src: add support for g_autoptr with virObject instances
Libvirt currently uses the VIR_AUTOUNREF macro for auto cleanup of
virObject instances. GLib approaches things differently with GObject,
reusing their g_autoptr() concept.

This introduces support for g_autoptr() with virObject, to facilitate
the conversion to GObject.

Only virObject classes which are currently used with VIR_AUTOREF are
updated. Any others should be converted to GObject before introducing
use of autocleanup.

Within the scope of any single method, code must remain consistent

must preferentially use the GLib macros, and old code will be
converted incrementally.

Daniel P. Berrangé cfbe9f1201 build: link to glib library
Add the main glib.h to internal.h so that all common code can use it.

Historically glib allowed applications to register an alternative
memory allocator, so mixing g_malloc/g_free with malloc/free was not
safe.

This was feature was dropped in 2.46.0 with:

      commit 3be6ed60aa58095691bd697344765e715a327fc1
      Author: Alexander Larsson <alexl@redhat.com>
      Date:   Sat Jun 27 18:38:42 2015 +0200

        Deprecate and drop support for memory vtables

Applications are still encourged to match g_malloc/g_free, but it is no
longer a mandatory requirement for correctness, just stylistic. This is
explicitly clarified in

    commit 1f24b36607bf708f037396014b2cdbc08d67b275
    Author: Daniel P. Berrangé <berrange@redhat.com>
    Date:   Thu Sep 5 14:37:54 2019 +0100

        gmem: clarify that g_malloc always uses the system allocator

Applications can still use custom allocators in general, but they must
do this by linking to a library that replaces the core malloc/free
implemenentation entirely, instead of via a glib specific call.

This means that libvirt does not need to be concerned about use of
g_malloc/g_free causing an ABI change in the public libary, and can
avoid memory copying when talking to external libraries.

This patch probes for glib, which provides the foundation layer with
a collection of data structures, helper APIs, and platform portability
logic.

Later patches will introduce linkage to gobject which provides the
object type system, built on glib, and gio which providing objects
for various interesting tasks, most notably including DBus client
and server support and portable sockets APIs, but much more too.

  Debian (Buster): 2.58.3
  Debian (Stretch): 2.50.3
  OpenBSD (Ports): 2.58.3
  FreeBSD (Ports): 2.56.3
  OpenSUSE Leap 15: 2.54.3
  SLE12-SP2: 2.48.2
  Ubuntu (Xenial): 2.48.0
  macOS (Homebrew): 2.56.0

This suggests that a minimum glib of 2.48 is a reasonable target.
This aligns with the minimum version required by qemu too.

We must disable the bad-function-cast warning as various GLib APIs
and macros will trigger this.

This reverts commit 83aca30f1e.

While the motivation of the original commit is fine, we are intending to
drop autoconf in favour of meson, and similarly wish to drop use of
gnulib. Removing this feature is part of that conversion work.

Daniel P. Berrangé 557ac8cbf5 docs: attempt to document the general libvirt dev strategy
There are various ideas / plans floating around for future libvirt work,
some of which is actively in progress. Historically we've never captured
this kind of information anywhere, except in mailing list discussions.
In particular guidelines in hacking.html.in don't appear until a policy
is actively applied.

This patch attempts to fill the documentation gap, by creating a new
"strategy" page which outlines the general vision for some notable
future changes. The key thing to note is that none of the stuff on this
page is guaranteed, plans may change as new information arises. IOW this
is a "best guess" as to the desired future.

This doc has focused on three areas, related to the topic of language
usage / consolidation

 - Use of non-C languages for the library, daemons or helper tools
 - Replacement of autotools with meson
 - Use of RST and Sphinx for documentation (website + man pages)

Daniel P. Berrangé 76d31244c5 rpc: fix escaping of shell path for netcat binary
Consider having a nc binary in the path with a space in its name,
for example '/tmp/fo o/nc'

This results in libvirt running SSH with the following arg value

  "'if ''/tmp/fo o/nc'' -q 2>&1 | grep \"requires
    an argument\" >/dev/null 2>&1; then ARG=-q0;
    else ARG=;fi;''/tmp/fo o/nc'' $ARG -U
    /var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock'"

The use of the single quote escaping was introduced by

  commit 6ac6238de3
  Author: Guido Günther <agx@sigxcpu.org>
  Date:   Thu Oct 13 21:49:01 2011 +0200

    Use virBufferEscapeShell in virNetSocketNewConnectSSH

    to escape the netcat command since it's passed to the shell. Adjust
    expected test case output accordingly.

While the intention of this change was good, the result is broken as it
is still underquoted.

On the SSH server side, SSH itself runs the command via the shell.
Our command is then invoking the shell again. Thus we see

$ virsh -c qemu+ssh://root@domokun/system?netcat=%2Ftmp%2Ffo%20o%2Fnc list
error: failed to connect to the hypervisor
error: End of file while reading data: sh: /tmp/fo: No such file or directory: Input/output error

With the second level of escaping added we can now successfully use a nc
binary with a space in the path.

The original test case added was misleading as it illustrated using a
binary path of 'nc -4' which is not a path, it is a command with a
separate argument, which is getting interpreted as a path.

Daniel P. Berrangé 305cdc37f0 api: introduce virConnectSetIdentity for passing uid, gid, selinux info
When using the fine grained access control mechanism for APIs, when a
client connects to libvirtd, the latter will fetch the uid, gid, selinux
info of the remote client on the UNIX domain socket. This is then used
as the identity when checking ACLs.

With the new split daemons things are a bit more complicated. The user
can connect to virtproxyd, which in turn connects to virtqemud. When
virtqemud requests the identity over the UNIX domain socket, it will
get the identity that virtproxyd is running as, not the identity of
the real end user/application.

virproxyd knows what the real identity is, and needs to be able to
forward this information to virtqemud. The virConnectSetIdentity API
provides a mechanism for doing this. Obviously virtqemud should not
accept such identity overrides from any client, it must only honour it
from a trusted client, aka one running as the same uid/gid as itself.

The typed parameters exposed in the API are the same as those currently
supported by the internal virIdentity class, with a few small name
changes.

portid field will be "00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000".

If a failure occurs during early VM startup, the hypervisor driver may
none the less try to release the network port, resulting in an
undesirable warning:

2019-09-12 13:17:42.349+0000: 16544: error :
virNetworkObjLookupPort:1679 : network port not found: Network port with
UUID 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 does not exist

By checking if the portid UUID is valid, we can avoid polluting the logs
in this way.

Daniel P. Berrangé b1b878c512 util: activate directory override when used from library
The Perl bindings for libvirt use the test driver for unit tests. This
tries to load the cpu_map/index.xml file, and when run from an
uninstalled build will fail.

The problem is that virFileActivateDirOverride is called by our various
binaries like libvirtd, virsh, but is not called when a 3rd party app
uses libvirt.so

To deal with this we allow the LIBVIRT_DIR_OVERRIDE=1 env variable to be
set and make virInitialize look for this. The 'run' script will set it,
so now build using this script to run against an uninstalled tree we
will correctly resolve files to the source tree.

Daniel P. Berrangé 926b7b6e6c docs: remove devhelp API docs
We currently generate two completely separate API references for the
libvirt public API. One at 'docs/html/' and one at 'docs/devhelp/'.
Both are published on the website, but we only link to content in
the 'docs/html/' pages.

Both are installed in the libvirt-docs sub-RPM, with a full copy
of the website including 'docs/html/' in /usr/share/docs/libvirt-docs,
while the 'docs/devhelp/' content goes to /usr/share/gtk-doc/. The
latter was broken for years until:

  commit ca6f602546
  Author: Andrea Bolognani <abologna@redhat.com>
  Date:   Fri May 10 14:54:52 2019 +0200

    docs: Introduce $(devhelphtml_generated)

    Our XSLT magic generates one Devhelp-compatible HTML file
    per documentation module, but so far we have only shipped
    and installed documentation for virterror.

    Now that we have $(modules), however, we can generate the
    list of files the same way we do for regular documentation
    and make sure we always ship and install everything.

That this bug went unnoticed for so long is a sign of how few
people are using the devhelp docs. The only commits to the devhelp
code since it was first introduced have been fixing various build
problems that hit.

The only obvious difference between the two sets of docs is the CSS
styling in use. Overall devhelp does not look compelling enough to
justify having two duplicated sets of API docs. Eliminating it will
reduce the amount of XSL code we are carrying in the tree which is
an attractive benefit.

The remote client invokes the 'nc' binary on the remote server to tunnel
access to the socket. As such the 'nc' binary needs to be pulled in only
by the libvirt-daemon sub-RPM, not the libvirt-client sub-RPM.

Daniel P. Berrangé 66d04312d0 rpm: don't enable socket activation in upgrade if --listen present
Currently during RPM upgrade we restart libvirtd and unconditionally
enable use of systemd socket activation for the UNIX sockets.

If the user had previously given the --listen arg to libvirtd though,
this will no longer be honoured if socket activation is used.

We could start libvirtd-tcp.socket or libvirtd-tls.socket for this,
but mgmt tools like puppet/ansible might not be expecting this.
So for now we silently disable socket activation if we see --listen
was previously set on the host.

Daniel P. Berrangé 3a6a725b8f remote: forbid the --listen arg when systemd socket activation
When using systemd socket activation the --listen arg has no
effect. This is confusing to users upgrading from previous versions of
libvirt as their config is silently ignored. Turn use of --listen into a
fatal error when sockets are passed from systemd.

This helps the admin discover the change in behaviour and thus decide
whether to stick with socket activation or revert to previous behaviour.
