When looking up storage volumes virsh uses multiple lookup steps. Some
of the steps don't require a pool name specified. This resulted into a
possibility that a volume would be part of a different pool than the
user specified:

Let's have a /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow image in the 'default'
pool and a second pool 'emptypool':

Currently we'd return:
  $ virsh vol-info --pool emptypool /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow
  Name:           test.qcow
  Type:           file
  Capacity:       100.00 MiB
  Allocation:     212.00 KiB

After the fix:
 $ tools/virsh vol-info --pool emptypool /var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow
 error: Requested volume '/var/lib/libvirt/images/test.qcow' is not in pool 'emptypool'

Some of the tests for virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC set an imaginary
timezone that attempts to force dyalight savings time active all the
time by setting a start date of 0/00:00:00 and end date of
366/23:59:59. Since the day is 0-based, 366 really means "day 367"
which will never occur - this was an attempt to eliminate problems
with DST not being active in some cases right around midnight on
January 1. Even though it didn't completely solve the problem, it
didn't seem to cause harm so it was left in the test timezones.

Although Linux glibc doesn't mind having a DST end date of 366,
FreeBSD refuses to use such timezones, so the tests fail. This patch
changes the 366 to 365.

This may or may not cause failure of the remaining DST tests around
midnight Jan 1. If so, we will need to disable those tests at year's
end too.

Currently we don't support mixed (external + internal) snapshots. The
code detecting the snapshot type didn't make sure that the memory image
was consistent with the snapshot type leading into strange error
message:

 $ virsh snapshot-create-as --domain VM --diskspec vda,snapshot=internal --memspec snapshot=external,file=/tmp/blah
 error: internal error: unexpected code path

Fix the mixed detection code to detect this kind of mistake:

 $ virsh snapshot-create-as --domain VM --diskspec vda,snapshot=internal --memspec snapshot=external,file=/tmp/blah
 error: unsupported configuration: mixing internal and external targets for a snapshot is not yet supported

A internal snapshot of a active VM with the memory snapshot disabled
explicitly would actually still take the memory snapshot. Reject it
explicitly.

For guests backed by gluster volumes (or other network storage) we don't
fill the backing chain (see qemuDomainDetermineDiskChain). This leaves
the "relPath" field of the top image NULL. This causes a crash in
virStorageFileChainLookup() when looking up a backing element for such a
disk.

Since I'm working on adding support for network storage and one of the
steps will make the "relPath" field optional let's use STREQ_NULLABLE
instead of STREQ in virStorageFileChainLookup() to avoid the problem.

The original version of virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC() would fail for
certain times of the day if daylight savings time was active. This
could most easily be seen by uncommenting the TEST_LOCALOFFSET() cases
that include a DST setting.

After a lot of experimenting, I found that the way to solve it in
almost all test cases is to set tm_isdst = -1 in the struct tm prior
to calling mktime(). Once this is done, the correct offset is returned
for all test cases at all times except the two hours just after
00:00:00 Jan 1 UTC - during that time, any timezone that is *behind*
UTC, and that is supposed to always be in DST will not have DST
accounted for in its offset.

I believe that the code of virTimeLocalOffsetFromUTC() actually is
correct for all cases, but the problem still encountered is due to our
inability to come up with a TZ string that properly forces DST to
*always* be active. Since a modfication of the (currently fixed)
expected result data to account for this would necessarily use the
same functions that we're trying to test, I've instead just made the
test program conditionally bypass the problematic cases if the current
date is either December 31 or January 1. This way we get maximum
testing during 363 days of the year, but don't get false failures on
Dec 31 and Jan 1.

This patch changes the macro introduced in 292d3f2d to either be

case of older libselinux.  The macro is then used directly in
tests/securityselinuxhelper.c.

Several function signatures changed in libselinux 2.3, now taking
a 'const char *' instead of 'security_context_t'.  The latter is
defined in selinux/selinux.h as

Even successful start of a VM from a managed save image would spam the
logs with the following message:

Unable to restore from managed state [path]. Maybe the file is
corrupted?

Re-arrange the logic to output the warning only when the image is
corrupted.

The flaw was introduced in commit cfc28c66.

Now that virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf is used only for remote
filesystems, don't canonicalize the path in it.

Use virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD instead in
virStorageBackendProbeTarget as it now returns all required data and the
storage file is already open in a filedescriptor.

Also fix improper error code being returned when virFileReadHeaderFD
would fail as virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD would set the
return code to 0.

Add argument to return backing file format of a file probed by
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromFD so that it can be used in place of
virStorageFileGetMetadataFromBuf.

qemu 2.0 added the ability to commit the active layer, but slightly
differently than what libvirt had been anticipating in its
implementation of the virDomainBlockCommit call.  As a result, if
you attempt to do a 'virsh blockcommit $dom vda', qemu gets into a
state where it is waiting on libvirt to end the job, while libvirt
is waiting on qemu to end the job, and the guest is effectively
hung with regards to further commands for that block device.

I have patches coming down the pipeline that will add full support
for blockcommit of the active layer when coupled with qemu 2.0 or
later; but they depend on Peter's improvements to block job handling
and form enough of a new feature that they are not ready for
inclusion in the 1.2.5 release.  So for now, just reject the
attempt, rather than letting the user get stuck.  This is no worse
than the behavior of qemu 1.7 rejecting the job.

Clean up unix socket files for chardevs using mode='bind',
like we clean up the monitor socket.
They are created by QEMU on startup and not really useful
after shutting it down.

For a clock element as above, libvirt simply converts current system
time with localtime_r(), then starts qemu with a time string that
doesn't contain any timezone information. So, from qemu's point of
view, the -rtc string it gets for:

   <clock offset='variable' basis='utc' adjustment='10800'/>

is identical to the -rtc string it gets for:

   <clock offset='variable' basis='localtime' adjustment='0'/>

(assuming the host is in a timezone that is 10800 seconds ahead of
UTC, as is the case on the machine where this message is being
written).

Since the commandlines are identical, qemu will behave identically
after this point in either case.

There are two problems in the case of basis='localtime' though:

Problem 1) If the guest modifies its RTC, for example to add 20
seconds, the RTC_CHANGE event from qemu will then contain offset:20 in
both cases. But libvirt will have saved the original adjustment into
adjustment0, and will add that value onto the offset in the
event. This means that in the case of basis=;utc', it will properly
emit an event with offset:10820, but in the case of basis='localtime'
the event will contain offset:20, which is *not* the new offset of the
RTC from UTC (as the event it documented to provide).

Problem 2) If the guest is migrated to another host that is in a
different timezone, or if it is migrated or saved/restored after the
DST status has changed from what it was when the guest was originally
started, the newly restarted guest will have a different RTC (since it
will be based on the new localtime, which could have shifted by
several hours).

The solution to both of these problems is simple - rather than
maintaining the original adjustment value along with
"basis='localtime'" in the domain status, when the domain is started
we convert the adjustment offset to one relative to UTC, and set the
status to "basis='utc'". Thus, whatever the RTC offset was from UTC
when it was initially started, that offset will be maintained when
migrating across timezones and DST settings, and the RTC_CHANGE events
will automatically contain the proper offset (which should by
definition always be relative to UTC).

This fixes a problem that was implied but not openly stated in:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=964177

commit e31b5cf3 attempted to fix libvirt's
VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_RTC_CHANGE, which is documentated to always
provide the new offset of the domain's real time clock from UTC. The
problem was that, in the case that qemu is provided with an "-rtc
base=x" where x is an absolute time (rather than "utc" or
"localtime"), the offset sent by qemu's RTC_CHANGE event is *not* the
new offset from UTC, but rather is the sum of all changes to the
domain's RTC since it was started with base=x.

So, despite what was said in commit e31b5cf3, if we assume that
the original value stored in "adjustment" was the offset from UTC at
the time the domain was started, we can always determine the current
offset from UTC by simply adding the most recent (i.e. current) offset
from qemu to that original adjustment.

This patch accomplishes that by storing the initial adjustment in the
domain's status as "adjustment0". Each time a new RTC_CHANGE event is
received from qemu, we simply add adjustment0 to the value sent by
qemu, store that as the new adjustment, and forward that value on to
any event handler.

This patch (*not* e31b5cf3, which should be reverted prior to
applying this patch) fixes:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=964177

(for the case where basis='utc'. It does not fix basis='localtime')

This reverts commit e31b5cf3.

This commit attempted to work around a bug in the offset value
reported by qemu's RTC_CHANGE event in the case that a variable base
date was given on the qemu commandline. The patch mixed up the math
involved in arriving at the corrected offset to report, and in the
process added an unnecessary private attribute to the clock
element. Since that element is private/internal and not used by anyone
else, it makes sense to simplify things by removing it.

Since there isn't a single libc API to get this value, this patch
supplies one which gets the value by grabbing current time, then
converting that into a struct tm with gmtime_r(), then back to a
time_t using mktime.

The returned value is the difference between UTC and localtime in
seconds. If localtime is ahead of UTC (east) the offset will be a
positive number, and if localtime is behind UTC (west) the offset will
be negative.

This function should be POSIX-compliant, and is threadsafe, but not
async signal safe. If it was ever necessary to know this value in a
child process, we could cache it with a one-time init function when
libvirtd starts, then just supply the cached value, but that
complexity isn't needed for current usage; that would also have the
problem that it might not be accurate after a local daylight savings
boundary.

(If it weren't for DST, we could simply replace this entire function
with "-timezone"; timezone contains the offset of the current timezone
(negated from what we want) but doesn't account for DST. And in spite
of being guaranteed by POSIX, it isn't available on older versions of
mingw.)

Add storage driver based functions to access headers of storage files
for metadata extraction. Along with this patch a local filesystem and
gluster via libgfapi implementation is provided. The gluster
implementation is based on code of the saferead_lim function.

To allow using the storage driver APIs to access files on various
storage sources in a universal fashion possibly on storage such as nfs
with root squash we'll need to store the desired uid/gid in the
metadata.

Add new initialisation API that will store the desired uid/gid and a
wrapper for the current use. Additionally add docs for the two APIs.

Currently the protocol type with index 0 was NBD which made it hard to
distinguish whether the protocol type was actually assigned. Add a new
protocol type with index 0 to distinguish it explicitly.

Skip networked storage but continue iteration through backing chain to
iterate through all the local paths in the backing chain.

Print the debug statements of individual file access functions from the
main API functions instead of the individual backend functions.

Also enhance initialization debug messages on a per-backend basis.

The gluster volume name was previously stored as part of the source path
string. This is unfortunate when we want to do operations on the path as
the volume is used separately.

Parse and store the volume name separately for gluster storage volumes
and use the newly stored variable appropriately.

Refactor the function to accept a virStorageSourcePtr instead of just
the path, add a check to run it only on local storage and fix callers
(possibly by using a newly introduced wrapper that wraps a path in the
 virStorageSource struct for legacy code)

Refresh the disk backing chains when reconnecting to a qemu process
after daemon restart. There are a few internal fields that don't get
refreshed from the XML. Until we are able to do that, let's reload all
the metadata by the backing chain crawler.

This is similar to the previous commit in that we need to explicitly
send migrate_cancel when libvirt detects an error other than those
reported by query-migrate. However, the possibility to hit such error is
pretty small.

When QEMU reports failed or cancelled migration, we don't need to send
it migrate_cancel QMP command. But in all other error paths, such as if
we detect broken connection to a destination daemon or something else
happens inside libvirt, we need to explicitly send migrate_cancel
command instead of relying on the migration to be implicitly cancelled
when destination QEMU is killed.

Because we were not doing so, one could end up with a paused domain
after failed migration.

The current error message is

    error: use virDomainMigrateToURI3 for peer-to-peer migration

which is correct but a bit misleading because the client did not specify
VIR_MIGRATE_PEER2PEER flag. This patch changes the error message to

    error: cannot perform tunnelled migration without using peer2peer
    flag

which is consistent with the error reported by older migration APIs.
