The previous commit removed the only usage of ``all'' parameter in
virKeepAliveStopInternal, which was actually the only reason for having
virKeepAliveStopInternal. This effectively reverts most of commit
6446a9e2.

When a libvirt API is called from the main event loop (which seems to be
common in event-based glib apps), the client IO loop would properly
handle keepalive requests sent by a server but will not actually send
them because the main event loop is blocked with the API. This patch
gets rid of response timer and the thread which is processing keepalive
requests is also responsible for queueing responses for delivery.

This makes it possible to create and queue new calls while we are
running IO loop.

Add virKeepAliveTimeout and virKeepAliveTrigger APIs that can be used to
set poll timeouts and trigger keepalive timer. virKeepAliveTrigger
checks if it is called to early and does nothing in that case.

The code that needs to be run every keepalive interval of inactivity was
only called from a timer and thus from the main event loop. We will need
to call the code directly from another place.

As we never drop non-blocking calls, the return value that used to
indicate a call was dropped is no longer needed.

As non-blocking calls are no longer dropped, we don't really need to
care that much about their fate and wait for the thread with the buck
to process them. If another thread has the buck, we can just push a
non-blocking call to the queue and be done with it.

So far, we were dropping non-blocking calls whenever sending them would
block. In case a client is sending lots of stream calls (which are not
supposed to generate any reply), the assumption that having other calls
in a queue is sufficient to get a reply from the server doesn't work. I
tried to fix this in b1e374a7 but
failed and reverted that commit.

With this patch, non-blocking calls are never dropped (unless the
connection is being closed) and will always be sent.

Normally, when every call has a thread associated with it, the thread
may get the buck and be in charge of sending all calls until its own
call is done. When we introduced non-blocking calls, we had to add
special handling of new non-blocking calls. This patch uses event loop
to send data if there is no thread to get the buck so that any
non-blocking calls left in the queue are properly sent without having to
handle them specially. It also avoids adding even more cruft to client
IO loop in the following patches.

With this change in, non-blocking calls may see unpredictable delays in
delivery when the client has no event loop registered. However, the only
non-blocking calls we have are keepalives and we already require event
loop for them, which makes this a non-issue until someone introduces new
non-blocking calls.

When analyzing our debug log, I'm always confused about what each of the
pointers mean. Let's be explicit.

My latest patch for RPC rework (a2c304f6) introduced a memory leak.
virNetMessageEncodeHeader() is calling VIR_ALLOC_N(msg->buffer, ...)
despite fact, that msg->buffer isn't VIR_FREE()'d on all paths calling
the function. Therefore, rather than injecting free statement switch to
VIR_REALLOC_N().

Since we are allocating RPC buffer dynamically, we can increase limits
for max. size of RPC message and RPC string. This is needed to cover
some corner cases where libvirt is run on such huge machines that their
capabilities XML is 4 times bigger than our current limit. This leaves
users with inability to even connect.

Currently, we are allocating buffer for RPC messages statically.
This is not such pain when RPC limits are small. However, if we want
ever to increase those limits, we need to allocate buffer dynamically,
based on RPC message len (= the first 4 bytes). Therefore we will
decrease our mem usage in most cases and still be flexible enough in
corner cases.

The stream lock is unlocked twice instead of being locked and then
unlocked. Probably a typo.

Remove the uid param from virGetUserConfigDirectory,
virGetUserCacheDirectory, virGetUserRuntimeDirectory,
and virGetUserDirectory

These functions were universally called with the
results of getuid() or geteuid(). To make it practical
to port to Win32, remove the uid parameter and hardcode
geteuid()

This reverts commit b1e374a7, which was
rather bad since I failed to consider all sides of the issue. The main
things I didn't consider properly are:

- a thread which sends a non-blocking call waits for the thread with
  the buck to process the call
- the code doesn't expect non-blocking calls to remain in the queue
  unless they were already partially sent

Thus, the reverted patch actually breaks more than what it fixes and
clients (which may even be libvirtd during p2p migrations) will likely
end up in a deadlock.

Currently, non-blocking calls are either sent immediately or discarded
in case sending would block. This was implemented based on the
assumption that the non-blocking keepalive call is not needed as there
are other calls in the queue which would keep the connection alive.
However, if those calls are no-reply calls (such as those carrying
stream data), the remote party knows the connection is alive but since
we don't get any reply from it, we think the connection is dead.

This is most visible in tunnelled migration. If it happens to be longer
than keepalive timeout (30s by default), it may be unexpectedly aborted
because the connection is considered to be dead.

With this patch, we only discard non-blocking calls when the last call
with a thread is completed and thus there is no thread left to keep
sending the remaining non-blocking calls.

The docs for virConnectSetKeepAlive() advertise that this function
should be able to disable keepalives on negative or zero interval time.

This patch removes the check that prohibited this and adds code to
disable keepalives on negative/zero interval.

* src/libvirt.c: virConnectSetKeepAlive(): - remove check for negative
                                             values
* src/rpc/virnetclient.c
* src/rpc/virnetclient.h: - add virNetClientKeepAliveStop() to disable
                            keepalive messages

                                                     disable keepalives

POSIX says that sa_sigaction is only safe to use if sa_flags
includes SA_SIGINFO; conversely, sa_handler is only safe to
use when flags excludes that bit.  Gnulib doesn't guarantee
an implementation of SA_SIGINFO, but does guarantee that
if SA_SIGINFO is undefined, we can safely define it to 0 as
long as we don't dereference the 2nd or 3rd argument of
any handler otherwise registered via sa_sigaction.

Based on a report by Wen Congyang.

DBus connection. The HAL device code further requires that
the DBus connection is integrated with the event loop and
provides such glue logic itself.

The forthcoming FirewallD integration also requires a
dbus connection with event loop integration. Thus we need
to pull the current event loop glue out of the HAL driver.

Thus we create src/util/virdbus.{c,h} files. This contains
just one method virDBusGetSystemBus() which obtains a handle
to the single shared system bus instance, with event glue
automagically setup.

On 64-bit platforms, unsigned long and unsigned long long are
identical, so we don't have to worry about overflow checks.
On 32-bit platforms, anywhere we narrow unsigned long long back
to unsigned long, we have to worry about overflow; it's easier
to do this in one place by having most of the code use the same
or wider types, and only doing the narrowing at the last minute.
Therefore, the memory set commands remain unsigned long, and
the memory get command now centralizes the overflow check into
libvirt.c, so that drivers don't have to repeat the work.

This also fixes a bug where xen returned the wrong value on
failure (most APIs return -1 on failure, but getMaxMemory

A multi-threaded client with event loop may crash if one of its threads
closes a connection while event loop is in the middle of sending
keep-alive message (either request or response). The right place for it
is inside virNetClientIOEventLoop() between poll() and
virNetClientLock(). We should only close a connection directly if no-one
is using it and defer the closing to the last user otherwise. So far we
only did so if the close was initiated by keep-alive timeout.

Qemu is adding the ability to do a partial rebase.  That is, given:

base <- intermediate <- current

virDomainBlockPull will produce:

current

but qemu now has the ability to leave base in the chain, to produce:

base <- current

Note that current qemu can only do a forward merge, and only with
the current image as the destination, which is fully described by
this API without flags.  But in the future, it may be possible to
enhance this API for additional scenarios by using flags:

Merging the current image back into a previous image (that is,
undoing a live snapshot), could be done by passing base as the
destination and flags with a bit requesting a backward merge.

Merging any other part of the image chain, whether forwards (the
backing image contents are pulled into the newer file) or backwards
(the deltas recorded in the newer file are merged back into the
backing file), could also be done by passing a new flag that says
that base should be treated as an XML snippet rather than an
absolute path name, where the XML could then supply the additional
instructions of which part of the image chain is being merged into
any other part.

The RPC generator transforms methods matching certain

If client stream does not have any data to sink and neither received
EOF, a dummy packet is sent to the daemon signalising client is ready to
sink some data. However, after we added event loop to client a race may
occur:

Thread 1 calls virNetClientStreamRecvPacket and since no data are cached
nor stream has EOF, it decides to send dummy packet to server which will
sent some data in turn. However, during this decision and actual message
exchange with server -

Thread 2 receives last stream data from server. Therefore an EOF is set
on stream and if there is a call waiting (which is not yet) it is woken
up. However, Thread 1 haven't sent anything so far, so there is no call
to be woken up. So this thread sent dummy packet to daemon, which
ignores that as no stream is associated with such packet and therefore
no reply will ever come.

This race causes client to hang indefinitely.

The RPC code had several latent memory leaks and an attempt to
free the wrong string, but thankfully nothing triggered them
(blkiotune was the only one returning a string, and always as
the last parameter).  Also, our cleanups for rpcgen ended up
nuking a line of code that renders VIR_TYPED_PARAM_INT broken,
because it was the only use of 'i' in a function, even though
it was a member usage rather than a standalone declaration.

* daemon/remote.c (remoteSerializeTypedParameters): Free the
correct array element.
(remoteDispatchDomainGetSchedulerParameters)
(remoteDispatchDomainGetSchedulerParametersFlags)
(remoteDispatchDomainBlockStatsFlags)
(remoteDispatchDomainGetMemoryParameters): Don't leak strings.
* src/rpc/genprotocol.pl: Don't nuke member-usage of 'buf' or 'i'.

When one thread passes the buck to another thread, it uses
virCondSignal to wake up the target thread. The variable
'haveTheBuck' is not updated in a race-free manner when
this occurs. The current thread sets it to false, and the
woken up thread sets it to true. There is a window where
a 3rd thread can come in and grab the buck.

Even if this didn't lead to crashes & deadlocks, this would
still result in unfairness in the buckpassing algorithm.

A better solution is to *never* set haveTheBuck to false
when we're passing the buck. Only set it to false when there
is no further thread waiting for the buck.

* src/rpc/virnetclient.c: Only set haveTheBuck to false
  if no thread is waiting
