* Coverity: Don't return freed pointers from command* along error path.Richard W.M. Jones2011-06-091-2/+14
| | | | | | | | | | If the external command failed to run, we could free up the allocated *stdoutput and *stderror pointers, but then return those freed pointers to the caller. The caller usually tries to print and free *stderror, so this is a serious error. Instead, return *stdoutput as NULL, and *stderror pointing to a generic error message.

* daemon: Remove some less useful debugging messages.Richard W.M. Jones2011-05-087-61/+7
| | | | | | | | Remove some debug messages which were basically left over from when the code was being developed. However we leave debug messages where it is printing an external command that is about to be executed, since those are useful.
* Compile rpcgen-generated files with -fno-strict-aliasingMatthew Booth2011-04-071-6/+5
| | | | | rpcgen generates source which can't be safely compiled with strict-aliasing enabled.
* daemon: Reimplement 'mounts' and 'mountpoints' commands.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-051-48/+29
| | | | | | | | Reimplement these so they read /proc/mounts instead of trying to parse the output of the 'mount' external command. One consequence of this is that these commands now work again for ntfs-3g filesystems.

* daemon: Introduce "pulse mode" progress events.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-014-1/+136
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This introduces a new form of progress event, where we don't know how much of the operation has taken place, but we nevertheless want to send back some indication of activity. Some progress bar indicators directly support this, eg. GtkProgressBar where it is known as "pulse mode". A pulse mode progress message is a special backwards-compatible form of the ordinary progress message. No change is required in callers, unless they want to add support for pulse mode. The daemon sends: - zero or more progress messages with position = 0, total = 1 - a single final progress message with position = total = 1 Note that the final progress message may not be sent if the call fails and returns an error. This is consistent with the behaviour of ordinary progress messages. The daemon allows two types of implementation. Either you can just call notify_progress (0, 1); ...; notify_progress (1, 1) as usual. Or you can call the functions pulse_mode_start, pulse_mode_end and/or pulse_mode_cancel (see documentation in daemon/daemon.h). For this second form of call, the guarantee is very weak: it *just* says the daemon is still capable of doing something, and it doesn't imply that if there is a subprocess that it is doing anything. However this does make it very easy to add pulse mode progress messages to all sorts of existing calls that depend on long-running external commands. To do: add a third variant that monitors a subprocess and only sends back progress messages if it's doing something, where "doing something" might indicate it's using CPU time or it's printing output.

* umount-all: Use /proc/mounts instead of output of 'mount' command.Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-221-34/+24
| | | | | | | | | | The particular issue is that ntfs-3g (or FUSE?) no longer appears to update /etc/mtab, which meant that umount-all was not unmounting these partitions. But parsing /proc/mounts is simpler and more robust in any case. Notes: Labels: bugfix
* proto: Fix both-ends-cancel case.Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-184-4/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the case where both ends cancel at the same time (eg. both ends realize there are errors before or during the transfer), previously we skipped sending back an error from the daemon, on the spurious basis that the library would not need it (the library is cancelling because of its own error). However this is wrong: we should always send back an error message from the daemon in order to preserve synchronization of the protocol. A simple test case is: $ guestfish -N fs -m /dev/sda1 upload nosuchfile / libguestfs: error: open: nosuchfile: No such file or directory libguestfs: error: unexpected procedure number (66/282) (Notice two things: there are errors at both ends, and the loss of synchronization). After applying this commit, the loss of synchronization does not occur and we just see the library error: $ guestfish -N fs -m /dev/sda1 upload nosuchfile / libguestfs: error: open: nosuchfile: No such file or directory The choice of displaying the library or the daemon error is fairly arbitrary in this case -- it would be valid to display either or even to combine them into one error. Displaying the library error only makes the code considerably simpler. This commit also (re-)enables a test for this case.
* proto: Fix FileIn ops that abort during the chunk upload stage.Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-187-39/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As a previous, incorrect attempt to fix RHBZ#576879 we tried to prevent the daemon from sending an error reply if the daemon had cancelled the transfer. This is wrong: the daemon should send an error reply in these cases. A simple test case is this: guestfish -N fs -m /dev/sda1 upload big-file / (This fails because the target "/" is a directory, not a file.) Prior to this commit, libguestfs would hang instead of printing an error. With this commit, libguestfs prints an error. What is happening is: (1) Library is uploading a file (2) In the middle of the long upload, daemon detects an error. Daemon cancels. (3) Library detects cancel, sends cancel chunk, then waits for the error reply from the daemon. (4) Daemon is supposed to send an error reply message. Because step (4) wasn't happening, uploads that failed like this would hang in the library (waiting for the error message, while the daemon was waiting for the next request). This also adds a regression test. This temporarily breaks the "both ends cancel" case (RHBZ#576879c5). Therefore the test for that is disabled, and this is fixed in the next patch in the series. This partially reverts commit dc706a639eec16084c0618baf7bfde00c6565f63.
* daemon: Improve protocol debug messages.Richard Jones2011-03-181-18/+26
| | | | | | | | This adds 'guestfsd: ...' prefix before each message, and also puts a message at the top of the main loop just after a new message has been received. The intent is to make it simpler to follow the protocol.
* daemon: Print error for invalid chunk.cancel field.Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-181-0/+7
| | | | | | | The chunk.cancel field should always be [0|1]. If it is not then something has gone badly wrong -- probably loss of synchronization. If this occurs print a debug message and return error from receive_file function.

* daemon: Remove -f (don't fork) option.Richard W.M. Jones2011-02-031-30/+3
| | | | This option was not being used.
* daemon: Allow -r option to run daemon standalone.Richard W.M. Jones2011-02-033-12/+31
| | | | | | | | This changes several aspects of the daemon. Currently: * sysroot will be "" (ie. operate directly on /) * CHROOT_IN/CHROOT_OUT are disabled * autosync doesn't try to unmount everything
* daemon: change to root directoryRichard W.M. Jones2011-02-031-0/+2
| | | | Ensure the daemon always starts with current directory == root.
* daemon: Parse /proc/mounts instead of /etc/mtabRichard W.M. Jones2011-02-031-2/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since Fedora util-linux 2.19, the %post script does: rm -f /etc/mtab ln -s /proc/mounts /etc/mtab We are no longer running %post scripts, so this means that /etc/mtab is a plain file in the appliance. Usual 'mount' still updates it, but for some reason mount.ntfs does *not* update it in Fedora 15, meaning that you couldn't mount and then operate on NTFS partitions. It seems better to always parse /proc/mounts (ie. what the kernel thinks is mounted) unconditionally, rather than relying on the capriciousness of the external mount command. Therefore, parse /proc/mounts instead of /etc/mtab, but add a note saying that in future we should really be parsing /proc/self/mountinfo, but that needs a custom parser, and the format is rather tricky: http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.37/Documentation/filesystems/proc.txt#L1462
* Add a new internal-autosync API to perform autosync.Richard W.M. Jones2011-01-281-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | Instead of explicitly calling umount-all; sync, we add a daemon function called internal-autosync which does the same. Apart from slightly simplifying the process of closing the handle, the main advantage is we can modify the daemon for the standalone case so that internal-autosync does not do the umount-all operation.
* daemon: Replace root_mounted global with intelligence.Richard W.M. Jones2011-01-272-27/+51
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We used to maintain a global flag 'root_mounted' which tells us if the user has mounted something on root (ie. on the sysroot directory). This flag caused a lot of trouble (eg. RHBZ#599503) because it's hard to keep the flag updated correctly when the user can do arbitrary mounts and also use mkmountpoint. Remove this flag and replace it with a test to see if something is mounted on *or under* the sysroot. (It has to be *or under* because of mkmountpoint and friends). This also replaces a rather convoluted "have we mounted root yet" check in the mount* APIs with a simpler check to see if the mountpoint exists and is an ordinary directory.

* New APIs: getxattr and lgetxattr to get single extended attributes.Richard W.M. Jones2010-12-161-0/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | These APIs are essentially required to work around a problem with ntfs-3g. This filesystem (or FUSE?) does not list all extended attributes of a file when you call listxattr(2). However if you know the name of an extended attribute, you can retrieve it directly using getxattr(2). The current APIs (getxattrs etc) are simple to use, but they don't work if we can't list out the extended attributes (ie. by calling listxattr(2)). Example using the new APIs on an ntfs-3g filesystem: ><fs> lgetxattr "/Documents and Settings" system.ntfs_attrib | hexdump -C 00000000 16 24 00 00 |.$..| 00000004 ><fs> lgetxattr "/Documents and Settings" system.ntfs_reparse_data | hexdump -C 00000000 03 00 00 a0 34 00 00 00 00 00 18 00 1a 00 10 00 |....4...........| 00000010 5c 00 3f 00 3f 00 5c 00 43 00 3a 00 5c 00 55 00 |\.?.?.\.C.:.\.U.| 00000020 73 00 65 00 72 00 73 00 00 00 43 00 3a 00 5c 00 |s.e.r.s...C.:.\.| 00000030 55 00 73 00 65 00 72 00 73 00 00 00 |U.s.e.r.s...| 0000003c ><fs> getxattr "/Documents and Settings" system.ntfs_reparse_data | hexdump -C libguestfs: error: getxattr: getxattr: No such file or directory ><fs> getxattr "/Documents and Settings" system.ntfs_attrib | hexdump -C libguestfs: error: getxattr: getxattr: No such file or directory ><fs> lgetxattr "/Documents and Settings" system.ntfs_attrib | hexdump -C 00000000 16 24 00 00 |.$..| 00000004 ><fs> getxattr "/Users" system.ntfs_attrib | hexdump -C 00000000 11 00 00 00 |....| 00000004
