Michal Privoznik 273b6581ca virDomainUndefineFlags: Allow NVRAM unlinking
When a domain is undefined, there are options to remove it's
managed save state or snapshots. However, there's another file
that libvirt creates per domain: the NVRAM variable store file.
Make sure that the file is not left behind if the domain is
undefined.

John Ferlan be365d8dff virsh: Resolve Coverity NEGATIVE_RETURNS
Coverity notes that after we VIR_ALLOC_N(params, nparams) a failed call to
virDomainGetCPUStats could result in nparams being set to -1. In that case,
the subsequent virTypedParamsFree in cleanup will pass -1 which isn't good.

Use the returned value as the number of stats to display in the loop as
it will be the value reported from the hypervisor and may be less than
nparams which is OK

John Ferlan 60b029c7a0 virsh: Resolve Coverity DEADCODE
Coverity points out that if 'dom' isn't returned from virDomainQemuAttach,
then the code already jumps to cleanup, so there was no need for the
subsequent if (dom != NULL) check.

I moved the error message about failure into the goto cleanup on failure
and then removed the if (dom != NULL)

John Ferlan b46b7785ac virsh: Resolve Coverity DEADCODE
Coverity points out that by using EMPTYSTR(type) we are guarding against
the possibility that it could be NULL; however, based on how 'type' was
initialized to NULL, then using nested ternary if-then-else's (?:?:)
setting either "ipv4", "ipv6", or "" - there is no way it could be NULL.
Since "-" is supposed to mean something empty in a field - modify the
nested ternary to an easier to read/process if-then-else leaving the
initialization to NULL to mean "-" in the formatted output.

Also changed the name from 'type' to 'typestr'.

John Ferlan daf27d4d82 virsh: Resolve Coverity DEADCODE
Since 0766783abb

Coverity complains that the EDIT_FREE definition results in DEADCODE.

As it turns out with the change to use the EDIT_FREE macro the call to
vir*Free() wouldn't be necessary nor would it happen...

Prior code to above commitid would :

  vir*Ptr foo = NULL;
  ...
  foo = vir*GetXMLDesc()
  ...
  vir*Free(foo);
  foo = vir*DefineXML()
  ...

And thus the free was needed.  With the change to use EDIT_FREE the
same code changed to:

  vir*Ptr foo = NULL;
  vir*Ptr foo_edited = NULL;
  ...
  foo = vir*GetXMLDesc()
  ...
  if (foo_edited)
      vir*Free(foo_edited);
  foo_edited = vir*DefineXML()
  ...

However, foo_edited could never be set in the code path - even with
all the goto's since the only way for it to be set is if vir*DefineXML()
succeeds in which case the code to allow a retry (and thus all the goto's)
never leaves foo_edited set

All error paths lead to "cleanup:" which causes both foo and foo_edited
to call the respective vir*Free() routines if set.

Jiri Denemark eaee338ae6 qemu: Recompute downtime and total time when migration completes
Total time of a migration and total downtime transfered from a source to
a destination host do not count with the transfer time to the
destination host and with the time elapsed before guest CPUs are
resumed. Thus, source libvirtd remembers when migration started and when
guest CPUs were paused. Both timestamps are transferred to destination
libvirtd which uses them to compute total migration time and total
downtime. Obviously, this requires the time to be synchronized between
the two hosts. The reported times are useless otherwise but they would
be equally useless if we didn't do this recomputation so don't lose
anything by doing it.

Eric Blake c1d75deea2 blockcopy: expose new API in virsh
Expose the new power of virDomainBlockCopy through virsh (well,
all but the finer-grained bandwidth, as that is its own can of
worms for a later patch).  Continue to use the older API where
possible, for maximum compatibility.

The command now requires either --dest (with optional --format
and --blockdev), to directly describe the file destination, or
--xml, to name a file that contains an XML description such as:

<disk type='network'>
  <driver type='raw'/>
  <source protocol='gluster' name='vol1/img'>
    <host name='red'/>
  </source>
</disk>

[well, it may be a while before the qemu driver is actually patched
to act on that particular xml beyond just parsing it, but the virsh
interface won't need changing at that time]

Non-zero option parameters are converted into virTypedParameters,
and if anything requires the new API, the command can synthesize
appropriate XML even if the --dest option was used instead of --xml.

The existing --raw flag remains for back-compat, but the preferred
spelling is now --format=raw, since the new API now allows us
to specify all formats rather than just a boolean raw to suppress
probing.

I hope I did justice in describing the effects of granularity and
buf-size on how they get passed through to qemu.

* tools/virsh-domain.c (cmdBlockCopy): Add new options --xml,
--granularity, --buf-size, --format. Make --raw an alias for
--format=raw. Call new API if new parameters are in use.
* tools/virsh.pod (blockcopy): Document new options.

I'm about to extend the capabilities of blockcopy.  Hiding a few
common lines of implementation gets in the way of the new required

Eric Blake b7e73585a8 blockcopy: allow block device destination
To date, anyone performing a block copy and pivot ends up with
the destination being treated as <disk type='file'>.  While this
works for data access for a block device, it has at least one
noticeable shortcoming: virDomainGetBlockInfo() reports allocation
differently for block devices visited as files (the size of the
device) than for block devices visited as <disk type='block'>
(the maximum sector used, as reported by qemu); and this difference
is significant when trying to manage qcow2 format on block devices
that can be grown as needed.

Of course, the more powerful virDomainBlockCopy() API can already
express the ability to set the <disk> type.  But a new API can't
be backported, while a new flag to an existing API can; and it is
also rather inconvenient to have to resort to the full power of
generating XML when just adding a flag to the older call will do
the trick.  So this patch enhances blockcopy to let the user flag
when the resulting XML after the copy must list the device as
type='block'.

New flag.

Eric Blake 1105c1deff blockjob: add new --bytes flag to virsh blockjob
Expose the new flag just added to virDomainGetBlockJobInfo.
With --raw, the presence or absence of --bytes determines which
flag to use in the single API call.  Without --raw, the use of
--bytes forces an error if the server doesn't support it,
otherwise, the code tries to silently fall back to scaling the
MiB/s value.

My goal is to eventually also support --bytes in bandwidth mode;
but that's a bit further down the road (and needs a new API flag
added in libvirt.h first).

This changes the human output, but the previous patch added
raw output precisely so that we can have flexibility with the
human output.  For this commit, I used qemu-monitor-command to
force an unusual bandwidth, but the same will be possible once
qemu implements virDomainBlockCopy:

Before:
Block Copy: [100 %]    Bandwidth limit: 2 MiB/s
After:
Block Copy: [100 %]    Bandwidth limit: 1048577 bytes/s (1.000 MiB/s)

The cache avoids having to repeatedly checking whether the flag
works when talking to an older server, when multiple blockjob
commands are issued during a batch session and the user is
manually polling for job completion.

* tools/virsh.h (_vshControl): Add a cache.
* tools/virsh.c (cmdConnect, vshReconnect): Initialize the cache.
* tools/virsh-domain.c (opts_block_job): Add --bytes.

Eric Blake 2019b7caca blockjob: add new --raw flag to virsh blockjob
The current output of 'blockjob [--info]' is a single line
designed for human consumption; it's not very nice for machine
parsing.  Furthermore, I have plans to modify the line in
response to the new flag for controlling bandwidth units.
Solve that by adding a --raw parameter, which outputs
information closer to the C struct.

$ virsh blockjob testvm1 vda --raw
 type=Block Copy
 bandwidth=1
 cur=197120
 end=197120

The information is indented, because I'd like for a later patch
to add a mode that iterates over all the vm's disks with status
for each; in that mode, each block name would be listed unindented
before information (if any) about that block.

Now that we have a raw mode, we can guarantee that it won't change
format over time.  Any app that cares about parsing the output can
try --raw, and if it fails, know that it was talking to an older
virsh and fall back to parsing the human-readable format which had
not changed until now; meanwhile, when not using --raw, we have
freed future virsh to change the output to whatever makes sense.

My first change to human mode: this command now guarantees a line
is printed on successful use of the API, even when the API did
not find a current block job (consistent with the rest of virsh).

Bonus: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1135441
complained that this message was confusing:

$ virsh blockjob test1 hda  --async --bandwidth 10
error: conflict between --abort, --info, and --bandwidth modes

even though the man page already documents that --async implies
abort mode, all because '--abort' wasn't present in the command
line.  Since I'm adding another case where options are tied
to or imply a mode, I changed that error to:

error: conflict between abort, info, and bandwidth modes

error wording.

Eric Blake c47f6aad95 blockjob: split up virsh blockjob info
I have plans to make future enhancements to the job list mode,
which will be easier to do if the common blockJobImpl function
is not mixing a query command with multiple modify commands.
Besides, it just feels weird that all callers to blockJobImpl
had to supply both a bandwidth input argument (unused for info
mode) and an info output argument (unused for all other modes);
not to mention I just made similar cleanups on the libvirtd
side.

The only reason blockJobImpl returned int was because of info
mode returning -1/0/1 (all other job API are -1/0), so that
can also be cleaned up.  No user-visible changes in this commit.

Chunyan Liu 7eabd5503e cmdMigrate: move vshConnect before vshWatchJob
A possible fix to issue:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2014-August/thread.html#00227

While doing migration on KVM host, found problem sometimes:
VM is already running on the target host and disappears from source
host, but 'virsh migrate' command line hangs, cannot exit normally.
If pressing "ENTER" key, it will exit.

The code hangs at tools/virsh-domain.c: cmdMigrate
->vshWatchJob->poll():
poll() is trying to select pipe_fd, which is used to receive message
from doMigrate thread. In debugging, found that doMigrate finishes
and at the end it does call safewrite() to write the retval ('0' or
'1') to pipe_fd, and the write is completed. But cmdMigrate poll()
cannot get the event. If pressing "ENTER" key, poll() can get the
event and select pipe_fd, then command line can exit.

In current code, authentication thread which is called by vshConnect
will use stdin, and at the same time, in cmdMigrate main process,
poll() is listening to stdin, that probably affect poll() to get
pipe_fd event. Better to move authentication before vshWatchJob. With
this change, above problem does not exist.

Roman Bogorodskiy 0257d06ba4 storage: ZFS support
Implement ZFS storage backend driver. Currently supported
only on FreeBSD because of ZFS limitations on Linux.

Features supported:

 - pool-start, pool-stop
 - pool-info
 - vol-list
 - vol-create / vol-delete

Pool definition looks like that:

 <pool type='zfs'>
  <name>myzfspool</name>
  <source>
    <name>actualpoolname</name>
  </source>
 </pool>

The 'actualpoolname' value is a name of the pool on the system,
such as shown by 'zpool list' command. Target makes no sense
here because volumes path is always /dev/zvol/$poolname/$volname.

User has to create a pool on his own, this driver doesn't
support pool creation currently.

A volume could be used with Qemu by adding an entry like this:

    <disk type='volume' device='disk'>
      <driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
      <source pool='myzfspool' volume='vol5'/>
      <target dev='hdc' bus='ide'/>

John Ferlan 83a928ef0a virsh: Document bandwidth maximum more clearly
Commit id '0e2d7305' modified the code to allow a negative value to be
supplied for the bandwidth argument of the various block virsh commands
and the migrate-setspeed; however, it failed to update the man page to
describe the "feature" whereby a very large value could be interpreted
by the hypervisor to mean maximum value allowed. Although initially
designed to handle a -1 value, the reality is just about any negative
value could be provided and essentially perform the same feature.

John Ferlan 570d0f6387 virsh vol-upload/download disallow negative offset
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1087104

Commit id 'c6212539' explicitly allowed a negative value to be used for
offset and length as a shorthand for the largest value after commit id
'f18c02ec' modified virStrToLong_ui() to essentially disallow a negative
value.

However, allowing a negative value for offset ONLY worked if the negative
value was -1 since the eventual lseek() does allow a -1 to mean the end
of the file.  Providing other negative values resulted in errors such as:

$ virsh vol-download --pool default qcow3-vol2 /home/vm-images/raw \
  --offset -2 --length -1000
error: cannot download from volume qcow3-vol2
error: Unable to seek /home/vm-images/qcow3-vol2 to 18446744073709551614: Invalid argument

$

Thus, it seems unreasonable to expect or allow a negative value for offset
since the only benefit is to lseek() to the end of the file and then only
take advantage of how the OS would handle such a seek. For the purposes of
upload or download of volume data, that seems to be a no-op.  Therefore,
disallow a negative value for offset.

Additionally, modify the man page for vol-upload and vol-download to provide
more details regarding the valid values for both offset and length.

Michal Privoznik 607806f87f Fix const correctness
In many places we define a variable as a 'const char *' when in fact
we modify it just a few lines below. Or even free it. We should not do
that.

There's one exception though, in xenSessionFree() xenapi_utils.c. We
are freeing the xen_session structure which is defined in
xen/api/xen_common.h public header. The structure contains session_id
which is type of 'const char *' when in fact it should have been just
'char *'. So I'm leaving this unmodified, just noticing the fact in
comment.

Ján Tomko 3103a9770f Fix assignment of comparison against zero
Assign the value we're comparing:
(val = func()) < 0
instead of assigning the comparison value:
(val = func() < 0)

Both were introduced along with the code,
the TLS tests by commit bd789df in 0.9.4
net events by commit de87691 in 1.2.2.

Note that the event id type fix is a no-op:
vshNetworkEventIdTypeFromString can only return
-1 (failure) and the event is never used or
0 (the only possible event) and the value of 0 < 0 is still 0.

Peter Krempa 6f04fb151b doc: Be more specific about semantics of _REUSE_EXT flag
Snapshots and block-copy have a flag that forces qemu to re-use existing
file. Our docs weren't exactly clear on what the existing file should
contain for this to actually work.

Re-word the docs a bit to state that the file needs to be pre-created in
the desired format and the backing chain metadata needs to be set prior
to handing it over to qemu.
