From 88446e07b2050c30ed07a2a7d26507674c8abe01 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Daniel=20P=2E=20Berrang=C3=A9?= Date: Fri, 17 May 2019 12:42:04 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] libvirt: support an "embed" URI path selector for opening drivers MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The driver URI scheme: "$drivername:///embed?root=/some/path" enables a new way to use the drivers by embedding them directly in the calling process. To use this the process must have a thread running the libvirt event loop. This URI will then cause libvirt to dynamically load the driver module and call its global initialization function. This syntax is applicable to any driver, but only those will have been modified to support a custom root directory and embed URI path will successfully open. The application can now make normal libvirt API calls which are all serviced in-process with no RPC layer involved. It is required to specify an explicit root directory, and locks will be acquired on this directory to avoid conflicting with another app that might accidentally pick the same directory. Use of '/' is not explicitly forbidden, but note that the file layout used underneath the embedded driver root does not match the file layout used by system/session mode drivers. So this cannot be used as a backdoor to interact with, or fake, the system/session mode drivers. Libvirt will create arbitrary files underneath this root directory. The root directory can be kept untouched across connection open attempts if the application needs persistence. The application is responsible for purging everything underneath this root directory when finally no longer required. Even when a virt driver is used in embedded mode, it is still possible for it to in turn use functionality that calls out to other secondary drivers in libvirtd. For example an embedded instance of QEMU can open the network, secret or storage drivers in the system libvirtd. That said, the application would typically want to at least open an embedded secret driver ("secret:///embed?root=/some/path"). Note that multiple different embedded drivers can use the same root prefix and co-operate just as they would inside a normal libvirtd daemon. A key thing to note is that for this to work, the application that links to libvirt *MUST* be built with -Wl,--export-dynamic to ensure that symbols from libvirt.so are exported & thus available to the dynamically loaded driver module. If libvirt.so itself was dynamically loaded then RTLD_GLOBAL must be passed to dlopen(). Reviewed-by: Michal Privoznik Signed-off-by: Daniel P.
