Eric Blake 31b5bad9ff event: make deregister return value match docs
Ever since their introduction (commit 1509b80 in v0.5.0 for
virConnectDomainEventRegister, commit 4445723 in v0.8.0 for
virConnectDomainEventDeregisterAny), the event deregistration
functions have been documented as returning 0 on success;
likewise for older registration (only the newer RegisterAny
must return a non-zero callbackID).  And now that we are
adding virConnectNetworkEventDeregisterAny for v1.2.1, it
should have the same semantics.

Fortunately, all of the stateful drivers have been obeying
the docs and returning 0, thanks to the way the remote_driver
tracks things (in fact, the RPC wire protocol is unable to
send a return value for DomainEventRegisterAny, at least not
without adding a new RPC number).  Well, except for vbox,
which was always failing deregistration, due to failure to
set the return value to anything besides its initial -1.

But for local drivers, such as test:///default, we've been
returning non-zero numbers; worse, the non-zero numbers have
differed over time.  For example, in Fedora 12 (libvirt 0.8.2),
calling Register twice would return 0 and 1 [the callbackID
generated under the hood]; while in Fedora 20 (libvirt 1.1.3),
it returns 1 and 2 [the number of callbacks registered for
that event type].  Since we have changed the behavior over
time, and since it differs by local vs. remote, we can safely
argue that no one could have been reasonably relying on any
particular behavior, so we might as well obey the docs, as well
as prepare callers that might deal with older clients to not be
surprised if the docs are not strictly followed.

For consistency, this patch fixes the code for all drivers,
even though it only makes an impact for vbox and for local
drivers.  By fixing all drivers, future copy and paste from
a remote driver to a local driver is less likely to
reintroduce the bug.

Finally, update the testsuite to gain some coverage of the
issue for local drivers, including the first test of old-style
domain event registration via function pointer instead of
event id.

README

       libvirt library code README
       ===========================

The directory provides the bulk of the libvirt codebase. Everything
except for the libvirtd daemon and client tools. The build uses a
large number of libtool convenience libraries - one for each child
directory, and then links them together for the final libvirt.so,
although some bits get linked directly to libvirtd daemon instead.

The files directly in this directory are supporting the public API
entry points & data structures.

There are two core shared modules to be aware of:

 * util/  - a collection of shared APIs that can be used by any
            code. This directory is always in the include path
            for all things built

 * conf/  - APIs for parsing / manipulating all the official XML
            files used by the public API. This directory is only
            in the include path for driver implementation modules

 * vmx/   - VMware VMX config handling (used by esx/ and vmware/)


Then there are the hypervisor implementations:

 * esx/          - VMware ESX and GSX support using vSphere API over SOAP
 * hyperv/       - Microsoft Hyper-V support using WinRM
 * lxc/          - Linux Native Containers
 * openvz/       - OpenVZ containers using cli tools
 * phyp/         - IBM Power Hypervisor using CLI tools over SSH
 * qemu/         - QEMU / KVM using qemu CLI/monitor
 * remote/       - Generic libvirt native RPC client
 * test/         - A "mock" driver for testing
 * uml/          - User Mode Linux
 * vbox/         - Virtual Box using native API
 * vmware/       - VMware Workstation and Player using the vmrun tool
 * xen/          - Xen using hypercalls, XenD SEXPR & XenStore
 * xenapi/       - Xen using libxenserver


Finally some secondary drivers that are shared for several HVs.
Currently these are used by LXC, OpenVZ, QEMU, UML and Xen drivers.
The ESX, Hyper-V, Power Hypervisor, Remote, Test & VirtualBox drivers all
implement the secondary drivers directly

 * cpu/          - CPU feature management
 * interface/    - Host network interface management
 * network/      - Virtual NAT networking
 * nwfilter/     - Network traffic filtering rules
 * node_device/  - Host device enumeration
 * secret/       - Secret management
 * security/     - Mandatory access control drivers
 * storage/      - Storage management drivers


Since both the hypervisor and secondary drivers can be built as
dlopen()able modules, it is *FORBIDDEN* to have build dependencies
between these directories. Drivers are only allowed to depend on
the public API, and the internal APIs in the util/ and conf/
directories
