      build: fix build on mingw with winpthreads · c91d13bd
      Eric Blake 提交于
      On my Fedora 20 box with mingw cross-compiler, the build failed with:
      
      ../../src/rpc/virnetclient.c: In function 'virNetClientSetTLSSession':
      ../../src/rpc/virnetclient.c:745:14: error: unused variable 'oldmask' [-Werror=unused-variable]
           sigset_t oldmask, blockedsigs;
                    ^
      
      I traced it to the fact that mingw64-winpthreads installs a header
      that does #define pthread_sigmask(...) 0, which means any argument
      only ever passed to pthread_sigmask is reported as unused.  This
      patch works around the compilation failure, with behavior no worse
      than what mingw already gives us regarding the function being a
      no-op.
      
      * configure.ac (pthread_sigmask): Probe for broken mingw macro.
      * src/util/virutil.h (pthread_sigmask): Rewrite to something that
      avoids unused variables.

      Like commit 94a26c7e from Eric Blake, the old fuzzy code should
      be replaced by the new array management macros now.
      
      And the type of scsi->count should be changed into "size_t", and
      thus virSCSIDeviceListCount should return size_t instead, similar
      for vir{PCI,USB}DeviceListCount.

      Fix bridge configuration when OUTPUT policy is DROP on the host · 538daf7f
      Lénaïc Huard 提交于
      When the host is configured with very restrictive firewall (default policy
      is DROP for all chains, including OUTPUT), the bridge driver for Linux
      adds netfilter entries to allow DHCP and DNS requests to go from the VM
      to the dnsmasq of the host.
      
      The issue that this commit fixes is the fact that a DROP policy on the OUTPUT
      chain blocks the DHCP replies from the host’s dnsmasq to the VM.
      As DHCP replies are sent in UDP, they are not caught by any --ctstate ESTABLISHED
      rule and so, need to be explicitly allowed.

      Read PCI class from sysfs class file instead of config space. · 9a3d7a47
      Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 提交于
      When determining if a device is behind a PCI bridge, the PCI device
      class is checked by reading the config space. However, there are some
      devices which have the wrong class on the config space, but the class is
      initialized by Linux correctly as a PCI BRIDGE. This class can be read
      by the sysfs file '/sys/bus/pci/devices/xxxx:xx:xx.x/class'.
      
      One example of such bridge is IBM PCI Bridge 1014:03b9, which is
      identified as a Host Bridge when reading the config space.

      maint: improve VIR_ERR_OPERATION_DENIED usage · d219826c
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Some of our operation denied messages are outright stupid; for
      example, if virIdentitySetAttr fails:
      
      error: operation Identity attribute is already set forbidden for read only access
      
      This patch fixes things to a saner:
      
      error: operation forbidden: Identity attribute is already set
      
      It also consolidates the most common usage pattern for operation
      denied errors: read-only connections preventing a public API.  In
      this case, 'virsh -r -c test:///default destroy test' changes from:
      
      error: operation virDomainDestroy forbidden for read only access
      
      to:
      
      error: operation forbidden: read only access prevents virDomainDestroy
      
      Note that we were previously inconsistent on which APIs used
      VIR_FROM_DOM (such as virDomainDestroy) vs. VIR_FROM_NONE (such as
      virDomainPMSuspendForDuration).  After this patch, all uses
      consistently use VIR_FROM_NONE, on the grounds that it is unlikely
      that a caller learning that a call is denied can do anything in
      particular with extra knowledge which error domain the call belongs
      to (similar to what we did in commit baa72449).

      maint: improve VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT usage · baa72449
      Eric Blake 提交于
      We weren't very consistent in our use of VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT; many
      users just passed __FUNCTION__ on, while others passed "%s" to
      silence over-eager compilers that warn about __FUNCTION__ not
      containing any %.  It's nicer to route all these uses through
      a single macro, so that if we ever need to change the reporting,
      we can do it in one place.
      
      I verified that 'virsh -c test:///default qemu-monitor-command test foo'
      gives the same error message before and after this patch:
      error: this function is not supported by the connection driver: virDomainQemuMonitorCommand
      
      Note that in libvirt.c, we were inconsistent on whether virDomain*
      API used virLibConnError() (with VIR_FROM_NONE) or virLibDomainError()
      (with VIR_FROM_DOMAIN); this patch unifies these errors to all use
      VIR_FROM_NONE, on the grounds that it is unlikely that a caller
      learning that a call is unimplemented can do anything in particular
      with extra knowledge of which error domain it belongs to.
      
      One particular change to note is virDomainOpenGraphics which was
      trying to fail with VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT after a failed
      VIR_DRV_SUPPORTS_FEATURE check; all other places that fail a
      feature check report VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED.

      Having one API call into another is generally not good; among
      other issues, it gives confusing logs, and is not quite as

      This fixes several instances, but not all: we still have instances

      the public virTypedParamsGetString and friends, which dispatch

      that up in a separate patch (such a cleanup may be easiest by

      object: require maximal alignment in base class · fca4f233
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Recent changes to events (commit 8a29ffcf) resulted in new compile
      failures on some targets (such as ARM OMAP5):
      conf/domain_event.c: In function 'virDomainEventDispatchDefaultFunc':
      conf/domain_event.c:1198:30: error: cast increases required alignment of
      target type [-Werror=cast-align]
      conf/domain_event.c:1314:34: error: cast increases required alignment of
      target type [-Werror=cast-align]
      cc1: all warnings being treated as errors
      
      The error is due to alignment; the base class is merely aligned
      to the worst of 'int' and 'void*', while the child class must
      be aligned to a 'long long'.  The solution is to include a
      'long long' (and for good measure, a function pointer) in the
      base class to ensure correct alignment regardless of what a
      child class may add, but to wrap the inclusion in a union so
      as to not incur any wasted space.  On a typical x86_64 platform,
      the base class remains 16 bytes; on i686, the base class remains
      12 bytes; and on the impacted ARM platform, the base class grows
      from 12 bytes to 16 bytes due to the increase of alignment from
      4 to 8 bytes.
      
      Reported by Michele Paolino and others.

      cgroups: Redefine what "unlimited" means wrt memory limits · 231656bb
      Martin Kletzander 提交于
      Since kernel 3.12 (commit 34ff8dc08956098563989d8599840b130be81252 in
      linux-stable.git in particular) the value for 'unlimited' in cgroup
      memory limits changed from LLONG_MAX to ULLONG_MAX.  Due to rather
      unfortunate choice of our VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED constant
      (which we transfer as an unsigned long long in Kibibytes), we ended up
      with the situation described below (applies to x86_64):
      
       - 2^64-1 (ULLONG_MAX) -- "unlimited" in kernel = 3.12
      
       - 2^63-1 (LLONG_MAX) -- "unlimited" in kernel < 3.12
       - 2^63-1024 -- our PARAM_UNLIMITED scaled to Bytes
      
       - 2^53-1 -- our PARAM_UNLIMITED unscaled (in Kibibytes)
      
      This means that when any number within (2^63-1, 2^64-1] is read from
      memory cgroup, we are transferring that number instead of "unlimited".
      Unfortunately, changing VIR_DOMAIN_MEMORY_PARAM_UNLIMITED would break
      ABI compatibility and thus we have to resort to a different solution.
      
      With this patch every value greater than PARAM_UNLIMITED means
      "unlimited".  Even though this may seem misleading, we are already in
      such unclear situation when running 3.12 kernel with memory limits set
      to 2^63.
      
      One example showing most of the problems at once (with kernel 3.12.2):
       # virsh memtune asdf --hard-limit 9007199254740991 --swap-hard-limit -1
       # echo 12345678901234567890 >\
      /sys/fs/cgroup/memory/machine/asdf.libvirt-qemu/memory.soft_limit_in_bytes
       # virsh memtune asdf
       hard_limit     : 18014398509481983
       soft_limit     : 12056327051986884

      virThreadPoolFree: Set n(Prio)Workers after the pool is locked · e925aad3
      Michal Privoznik 提交于
      In 78839da0 I am trying to join the worker threads. However, I can't
      sipmly reuse pool->nWorkers (same applies for pool->nPrioWorkers),
      because of the following flow that is currently implemented:
      
      1) the main thread executing virThreadPoolFree sets pool->quit = true,
      wakes up all the workers and wait on pool->quit_cond.
      
      2) A worker is woken up and see quit request. It immediately jumps of
      the while() loop and decrements pool->nWorkers (or pool->nPrioWorkers in
      case of priority worker). The last thread signalizes pool->quit_cond.
      
      3) Main thread is woken up, with both pool->nWorkers and
      pool->nPrioWorkers being zero.
      
      So there's a need to copy the original value of worker thread counts
      into local variables. However, these need to set *after* the check for
      pool being NULL (dereferencing a NULL is no no). And for safety they can
      be set right after the pool is locked.

      When virPCIGetVirtualFunctions created the list of an SRIOV Physical
      Function's (PF) Virtual Functions (VF), it had assumed that the order
      of "virtfn*" links returned by readdir() from the PF's sysfs directory
      was already in the correct order. Experience has shown that this is
      not always the case - it can be in alphabetical order (which would
      e.g. place virtfn11 before virtfn2) or even some seemingly random
      order (see the example in the bugzilla report)
      
      This results in 1) incorrect assumptions made by consumers of the
      output of the virt_functions list of virsh nodedev-dumpxml, and 2)
      setting MAC address and vlan tag on the wrong VF (since libvirt uses
      netlink to set mac address and vlan tag, netlink requires the VF#, and
      the function virPCIGetVirtualFunctionIndex() returns the wrong index
      due to the improperly ordered VF list).
      
      The solution provided by this patch is for virPCIGetVirtualFunctions
      to no longer scan the entire device directory in its natural order,
      but instead to check for links individually by name "virtfn%d" where
      %d starts at 0 and increases with each success. Since VFs are created
      contiguously by the kernel, this will guarantee that all VFs are
      found, and placed in the arry in the correct order.
      
      One note of use to the uninitiated is that VIR_APPEND_ELEMENT always
      either increments *num_virtual_functions or fails, so no this isn't an
      endless loop.
      
      (NB: the SRIOV_* defines at the top of virpci.c were removed
      because they are unnecessary and/or not used.)

      storage: always probe type with buffer · 348b4e25

      This gets rid of another stat() per volume, as well as cutting
      bytes read in half, when populating the volumes of a directory
      pool during a pool refresh.  Not to mention that it provides an
      interface that can let gluster pools also probe file types.

      storage: refactor backing chain division of labor · 3ead2e7d
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Future patches will want to learn metadata about a file using
      a buffer that was already parsed in order to probe the file's
      format.  Rather than reopening and re-reading the file, it makes
      sense to separate getting file contents from actually parsing
      those contents.

      storage: avoid short reads while chasing backing chain · 5327fad4
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Our backing file chain code was not very robust to an ill-timed
      EINTR, which could lead to a short read causing us to randomly
      treat metadata differently than usual.  But the existing
      virFileReadLimFD forces an error if we don't read the entire
      file, even though we only care about the header of the file.
      So add a new virFile function that does what we want.

      storage: use simpler 'char *' · 5717ee6a
      Eric Blake 提交于
      'unsigned char *' makes sense if you are doing math on bytes and
      don't want to worry about wraparound from a signed 'char'; but
      since all we are doing is memcmp() or virReadBufInt*[LB]E(), which
      are both safe on either type of char, and since read() prefers to
      operate on 'char *', it's simpler to avoid casts by just typing
      things as 'char *' from the get-go.  [Technically, read can
      operate on an 'unsigned char *' thanks to the C rule that any
      pointer can be implicitly converted to 'char *' for legacy K&R
      compatibility; but where this patch saves us is if we try to use
      virfile.h functions that take 'char **' in order to allocate the
      buffer, where the compiler would barf on type mismatch.]
