Commit75c1256states that virGetGroupList must not be called between fork and exec, then commitee777e99promptly violated that for lxc's use of virSecurityManagerSetProcessLabel. Hoist the supplemental group detection to the time that the security manager needs to fork. Qemu is safe, as it uses virSecurityManagerSetChildProcessLabel which in turn uses virCommand to determine supplemental groups. This does not fix the fact that virSecurityManagerSetProcessLabel calls virSecurityDACParseIds calls parseIds which eventually calls getpwnam_r, which also violates fork/exec async-signal-safe safety rules, but so far no one has complained of hitting deadlock in that case. * src/security/security_dac.c (_virSecurityDACData): Track groups in private data. (virSecurityDACPreFork): New function, to set them. (virSecurityDACClose): Clean up new fields. (virSecurityDACGetIds): Alter signature. (virSecurityDACSetSecurityHostdevLabelHelper) (virSecurityDACSetChardevLabel, virSecurityDACSetProcessLabel) (virSecurityDACSetChildProcessLabel): Update callers.

LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
