The gnulib testsuite is relatively stable - the only times it is
likely to have a test change from pass to fail is on a gnulib
submodule update or a major system change (such as moving from
Fedora 18 to 19, or other large change to libc). While it is an
important test for end users on arbitrary machines (to make sure
that the portability glue works for their machine), it mostly
wastes time for development testing (as most developers aren't
making any of the major changes that would cause gnulib tests
to alter behavior). Thus, it pays to make the tests optional
at configure time, defaulting to off for development, on for
tarballs, with autobuilders requesting it to be on. It also
helps to allow a make-time override, via VIR_TEST_EXPENSIVE=[01]
(much the way automake sets up V=[01] for overriding the configure
time default of how verbose to be).
Automake has some pretty hard-coded magic with regards to the
TESTS variable; I had quite a job figuring out how to keep
'make distcheck' passing regardless of the configure option
setting in use, while still disabling the tests at runtime
when I did not configure them on and did not use the override
variable. Thankfully, we require GNU make, which lets me
hide some information from Automake's magic handling of TESTS.

Newer gnutls uses nettle, rather than gcrypt, which is a lot nicer
regarding initialization. Yet we were unconditionally initializing
gcrypt even when gnutls wouldn't be using it, and having two crypto
libraries linked into libvirt.so is pointless, but mostly harmless
(it doesn't crash, but does interfere with certification efforts).
There are three distinct version ranges to worry about when
determining which crypto lib gnutls uses, per these gnutls mails:
2.12: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2011-03/msg00034.html
3.0: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/gnutls-devel/2011-07/msg00035.html
If pkg-config can prove version numbers and/or list the crypto
library used for static linking, we have our proof; if not, it
is safer (even if pointless) to continue to use gcrypt ourselves.
* configure.ac (WITH_GNUTLS): Probe whether to add -lgcrypt, and
define a witness WITH_GNUTLS_GCRYPT.

(virGlobalInit): Honor the witness.

no longer needed in Fedora 19.

This is a second attempt at fixing the problem first attempted

reverted in commit 43cee32f, plus fixing two more issues: the
code in configure.ac has to EXACTLY match virnetdevbridge.c
with regards to declaring in6 types before using if_bridge.h,
and the fact that RHEL 5 has even more conflicts:

The python/tests directory contains a number of so called
"tests" for the python API. These are all hardcoded to
look for Xen and cannot be run in any automated fashion,
and no one is ever manually running them. Given that they
don't meaningully contribute to the test coverage, delete
them.
For some reason these tests were also copied into the
filesystem as part of 'make install'. The change to the
RPM in commit 3347a42032
caused a build failure, since it removed the code which
deleted these installed tests.

link_addr detection in configure always reports that
link_addr is missing because it uses link_addr(NULL, NULL) in
AC_LINK_IFELSE check with limited set of headers that doesn't
define NULL.
Fix by replacing 'NULL' with just '0'.
Some versions of kFreeBSD (like 9.0) declare link_addr in a header
but lack an implementation. This makes ./configure pass but breaks
compilation later with a
undefined reference to `link_addr'
Althought that's a bug in the OS header we can detect it easily by also
trying to link.

When combining old gcc (4.2.1) and new gcrypt (1.5.2), such as

The sad part is that we aren't even using the deprecated symbols - their
mere inclusion in the installed header is provoking the problems. It
looks like newer gcc is a bit more tolerant (that is, this is a
shortcoming of FreeBSD's use of an older compiler).

This patch adds two sets of functions:
1) lower level virProcessSet*() functions that will immediately set
the RLIMIT_MEMLOCK. RLIMIT_NPROC, or RLIMIT_NOFILE of either the
current process (using setrlimit()) or any other process (using
prlimit()). "current process" is indicated by passing a 0 for pid.
2) functions for virCommand* that will setup a virCommand object to
set those limits at a later time just after it has forked a new
process, but before it execs the new program.
configure.ac has prlimit and setrlimit added to the list of functions
to check for, and the low level functions log an "unsupported" error)
on platforms that don't support those functions.
Add a virCgroupIsolateMount method which looks at where the
current process is place in the cgroups (eg /system/demo.lxc.libvirt)
and then remounts the cgroups such that this sub-directory
becomes the root directory from the current process' POV.

Every source file is currently built twice by libtool, once for
the shared library and once for the static library. Static libs
are not commonly packaged by distros and slow down compilation
time by more than 50% compared to a shared-only build time.
Time for 'make -j 4':
shared only: 2 mins 9 secs
shared + static: 3 mins 26 secs
Time for non-parallel make
shared only: 3 mins 32 secs
shared + static: 5 mins 41 secs
Those few people who really want them, can pass --enable-static
to configure
Disabling them by default requires use of LT_INIT, but for
compat with RHEL5 we can't rely on that. So we conditionally
use LT_INIT, but fallback to AM_PROG_LIBTOOL if not present.

This patch introduces support for LXC specific public APIs. In
common with what was done for QEMU, this creates a libvirt_lxc.so
library and libvirt/libvirt-lxc.h header file.
The actual APIs are
int virDomainLxcOpenNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
int **fdlist,
unsigned int flags);
int virDomainLxcEnterNamespace(virDomainPtr domain,
unsigned int nfdlist,
int *fdlist,
unsigned int *noldfdlist,
int **oldfdlist,
unsigned int flags);
which provide a way to use the setns() system call to move the
calling process into the container's namespace. It is not
practical to write in a generically applicable manner. The
nearest that we could get to such an API would be an API which
allows to pass a command + argv to be executed inside a
container. Even if we had such a generic API, this LXC specific
API is still useful, because it allows the caller to maintain
the current process context, in particular any I/O streams they
have open.
NB the virDomainLxcEnterNamespace() API is special in that it
runs client side, so does not involve the internal driver API.

There are many aspects of the guest XML which result in the
SELinux driver applying file labelling. With the increasing
configuration options it is desirable to test this behaviour.
It is not possible to assume that the test suite has the
ability to set SELinux labels. Most filesystems though will
support extended attributes. Thus for the purpose of testing,
it is possible to extend the existing LD_PRELOAD hack to

I ran 'make dist' in the directory left over from ./autobuild.sh

I traced it to the fact that we were distributing a generated

the file in the first place. In the process, I noticed that
we had some difference in symbol file names; I added a comment
explaining why the difference exists (after first trying to

The functionality provided in virchrdev.c (previously virconsole.c) is

"character device" or "device path".
A recent build failure made me realize that we could usefully add
a bit more information to configure output, for aid in analysis of

Commit 8b8fcdea introduced a check for broken gcc -Wlogical-op,

This patch converts the Xen libxl driver to support only Xen >= 4.2.
Support for Xen 4.1 libxl is dropped since that version of libxl is
designated 'technology preview' only and is incompatible with Xen 4.2
libxl. Additionally, the default toolstack in Xen 4.1 is still xend,
for which libvirt has a stable, functional driver.
It may take some time for sanlock to add a lockspace. And if user
restart libvirtd service meanwhile, the fresh daemon can fail adding
the same lockspace with EINPROGRESS. Recent sanlock has

changes state. If we are building against older sanlock we should
retry a few times before claiming an error. This issue can be easily

When using --without-$name --without-secdriver-$name with $name being
selinux or apparmor, configure will fail saying that AppArmor/SELinux
development package must be installed.
This is caused by a small bug in --with-secdriver-$name handling in
configure.ac which treats --without-secdriver-$name when $name as if the
user had requested to enable $name when $name couldn't be detected on
the system.
This commit also makes sure the detection checks for disabled
secdrivers do not needlessly get run, especially as this could
cause an error as well in --with-$name --without-secdriver-$name
situations.
libvirt started using sanlock_killpath to implement on_lockfailure
action. Since sanlock_killpath was introduced in sanlock 2.4, libvirt
fails to build with older sanlock.
We are currently able to work only with non-translated SELinux
contexts, but we are using functions that work with translated
contexts throughout the code. This patch swaps all SELinux context
translation relative calls with their raw sisters to avoid parsing
problems.
The problems can be experienced with mcstrans for example. The
difference is that if you have translations enabled (yum install
mcstrans; service mcstrans start), fgetfilecon_raw() will get you
something like 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:s0', whereas
fgetfilecon() will return 'system_u:object_r:virt_image_t:SystemLow'
that we cannot parse.
I was trying to confirm that the _raw variants were here since the dawn of
time, but the only thing I see now is that it was imported together in
the upstream repo [1] from svn, so before 2008.
Thanks Laurent Bigonville for finding this out.

Add a read-only udev based backend for virInterface. Useful for distros
that do not have netcf support yet. Multiple libvirt based utilities use
a HAL based fallback when virInterface is not available which is less
than ideal. This implements:
* virConnectNumOfInterfaces()
* virConnectListInterfaces()
* virConnectNumOfDefinedInterfaces()
* virConnectListDefinedInterfaces()
* virConnectListAllInterfaces()
* virConnectInterfaceLookupByName()
* virConnectInterfaceLookupByMACString()
curl_global_init is not thread-safe. curl_easy_init might call
curl_global_init when it was no called before. But curl_easy_init
can be called from different threads by the ESX driver. Therefore,
call curl_global_init from virInitialize to stop curl_easy_init from
calling it.
