* Ensure atomic creation of a cached applianceMatthew Booth2010-10-281-13/+92
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Cached appliances are discovered by their predictable path. Previously we were creating a cached appliance directly in this predictable path. This had at least 2 undesirable effects: * Interrupting appliance creation would leave a corrupt appliance * 2 processes could simultaneously attempt to create the same appliance, causing corruption. This patch causes the cached appliance to be created in a temporary directory, and then renamed to the predictable path. As rename is an atomic operation, this makes the whole creation atomic. This patch also changes the predictable path to have a prefix of 'guestfs.'. This will make it simpler for system administrators to clean up old cached appliances. This patch resolves RHBZ#639405
* Call febootstrap-supermin-helper using the new -u and -g optionsMatthew Booth2010-10-281-37/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Use febootstrap-supermin-helper's new -u and -g command line options to setuid, rather than doing it in libguestfs. This resolves an issue with the generation of the cached appliance checksum. The checksum was being generated by a call to febootstrap-supermin-helper through popen(). Unfortunately, a bash misfeature meant that euid would be reset to uid, and the checksum was generated for uid, not euid. When virt-v2v is writing to a RHEV target, uid == 0 and euid == 36, which resulted in a cached appliance being created for root with permissions for uid 36. Note this requires febootstrap 2.10.
* Log the febootstrap-supermin-helper command lineMatthew Booth2010-10-281-26/+29
| | | | | | A side-effect of change 17e7cb9937a63ed8f9bb0fb6ac7302758be76846 was the the febootstrap-supermin-helper was no longer logged. This change adds it back using the new guestfs___print_timestamped_argv internal function.
* New internal function guestfs___print_timestamped_argvMatthew Booth2010-10-282-24/+25
| | | | | | | This function generalises the existing print_cmdline used to output the qemu command line to output any given command line, and exports it to other modules. It also adds a timestamp to the old print_cmdline output for consistency with guestfs___print_timestamped_message.
* New API: inspect-get-windows-systemroot to get systemroot.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-282-23/+31
| | | | | | We are already using heuristics in the C inspection code to determine the Windows %SYSTEMROOT% directory. This change just exposes this information through the API.

* appliance: Remove repo from appliance filename (RHBZ#638901).Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-2/+2
| | | | | | | There's no need to have the appliance filename contain the repository name it was built from, and this change gives downstream users more freedom to mix and match libraries and appliances if they want to.

* /dev/mapper paths should not be returned from C inspection APIs (RHBZ#638899).Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-17/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this patch, /dev/mapper paths do not appear in the output of guestfs_inspect_os, as you can see from this example: Welcome to guestfish, the libguestfs filesystem interactive shell for editing virtual machine filesystems. Type: 'help' for a list of commands 'man' to read the manual 'quit' to quit the shell Operating system: Fedora release 13 (Goddard) /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_root mounted on / <--- NB /dev/vda1 mounted on /boot
* New API: lvm-canonical-lv-name: make LV name canonical.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When logical volume names appear in places like /etc/fstab files they can have the form "/dev/mapper/foo-bar". This function takes such names and makes them canonical. Note that this operation cannot be performed using the current API, because 'guestfs_stat' does not work on device names, and we don't really want to make a 'stat-device' call since that exposes too much non-useful detail about the appliance. With this patch you can do this: ><fs> debug ll /dev/mapper total 8 drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 4096 Oct 25 12:51 . drwxr-xr-x 16 root root 4096 Oct 25 12:51 .. crw------- 1 root root 10, 62 Oct 25 12:51 control lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Oct 25 12:51 vg_f13x64-lv_root -> ../dm-0 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 7 Oct 25 12:51 vg_f13x64-lv_swap -> ../dm-1 ><fs> lvm-canonical-lv-name /dev/mapper/vg_f13x64-lv_root /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_root ><fs> lvm-canonical-lv-name /dev/mapper/vg_f13x64-lv_swap /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_swap ><fs> lvm-canonical-lv-name /dev/mapper/foo libguestfs: error: lvm_canonical_lv_name: lvm_canonical_lv_name_stub: /dev/mapper/foo: No such file or directory ><fs> lvm-canonical-lv-name /dev/mapper/control libguestfs: error: lvm_canonical_lv_name: /dev/mapper/control: not a logical volume ><fs> lvm-canonical-lv-name /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_root /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_root
* Don't use kernel module whitelist with ext2-based appliance.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | Since the ext2-based appliance is cached, and since it is not all loaded into memory (as with the initrd), we might as well put all the kernel modules in there. Note the kmod.whitelist.in file is still used for building the ordinary appliance.
* Fix networking in the appliance.Matthew Booth2010-10-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | Commit 4963be85 re-introduced networking to the appliance, but didn't configure the custom network the appliance expects since we switched to link local addressing. This patch configures QEMU to use the custom network again. Note that you still need to use guestfs_set_network (g, 1) to enable user networking.
* Don't include control characters in BufferIn trace output (RHBZ#646822).Matthew Booth2010-10-262-0/+30

* generator: Optional arguments, add-drive-opts (RHBZ#642934,CVE-2010-3851).Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-222-41/+232
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This large commit changes the generator so that optional arguments can be supported for functions. The model for arguments (known as the "style") is changed from (ret, args) to (ret, args, optargs) where optargs is a more limited list of arguments. One function has been added which takes optional arguments, it is "add-drive-opts", modelled as: (RErr, [String "filename"], #required [Bool "readonly"; String "format"; String "iface"]) #optional Note that this function is processed in the library (does not go over the RPC protocol to the daemon). This has allowed us to simplify the current implementation by omitting changes related to RPC or the daemon, although we plan to add these at some point in the future. From C this function can be called in 3 different ways as in these examples: guestfs_add_drive_opts (g, filename, GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY, 1, GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_FORMAT, "raw", -1); (the argument(s) between 'filename' and '-1' are the optional ones). guestfs_add_drive_opts_va (g, filename, args); where 'args' is a va_list. This works like the first version. struct guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv optargs = { .bitmask = GUESTFS_ADD_DRIVE_OPTS_READONLY_BITMASK, .readonly = 1, } guestfs_add_drive_opts_argv (g, filename, &optargs); This last form lets you construct lists of optional arguments, and is used by guestfish and the language bindings. In guestfish optional arguments are used like this: add-drive-opts filename readonly:true In OCaml these are mapped naturally to OCaml optional arguments, eg: g#add_drive_opts ~readonly:true filename; In Perl these are mapped to extra arguments, eg: $g->add_drive_opts ($filename, readonly => 1); In Python these are mapped to optional arguments, eg: g.add_drive_opts ("file", readonly = 1, format = "qcow2") In Ruby these are mapped to a final hash argument, eg: g.add_drive_opts("file", {}) g.add_drive_opts("file", :readonly => 1) g.add_drive_opts("file", :readonly => 1, :iface => "virtio") In PHP these are mapped to extra parameters. This is not quite accurate since you cannot omit arbitrary optional parameters, but there's not much than can be done within the limitations of PHP as a language. Unimplemented in: Haskell, C#, Java.

* Allow $TMPDIR to override most temporary directory uses.Richard W.M. Jones2010-09-245-24/+41
| | | | | | | Be more consistent in allowing the user to override use of the temporary directory by specifying $TMPDIR. Also prefer P_tmpdir macro (defined in <stdio.h>) if that is defined, rather than hard-coding "/tmp" for the fallback location.
* New APIs: upload-offset and download-offsetRichard W.M. Jones2010-09-211-1/+1
| | | | | These APIs allow you to efficiently write and read parts of files or devices.
* leak: Free PCRE regexps when library is unloaded.Richard W.M. Jones2010-09-211-0/+18
| | | | | | | The compiled PCRE regexps used for inspection were being leaked when the library was unloaded. (Found by valgrind).
* leak: Appliance name was leaked during guestfs_launch.Richard W.M. Jones2010-09-211-0/+2
| | | | | | | This frees the string containing the name of the appliance which was previously being leaked during launch. (Found by valgrind).
* Fix error launching libguestfs when euid != uid.Richard W.M. Jones2010-09-201-25/+108
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When writing to a RHEV target, virt-v2v launches the libguestfs appliance with euid:egid = 36:36, which is required to write to an NFS target using root_squash. Since we changed to using a cached appliance, this causes an error on start up, as the cached files are owned by root, but the cache directory is owned by 36:36. The reason is that bash resets euid to uid and egid to gid so when febootstrap-supermin-helper is executed, it runs as root:root. The cache directory was created by libguestfs directly so it has the correct ownership. This patch fixes the issue by using explicit fork/exec instead of system (ie. not going via a shell) and by setting the real UID and GID to the effective UID and GID before execing.
* New API: list-filesystems: list filesystemsRichard Jones2010-09-151-0/+137
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This API is a simpler replacement for the guestfish commands list-devices / list-partitions / lvs, in the case where you are just examining a guest by hand to see what it contains. Typical usage and output in guestfish is like this: $ guestfish --ro -a /dev/vg_trick/F13x64 ><fs> run ><fs> list-filesystems /dev/vda1: ext4 /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_root: ext4 /dev/vg_f13x64/lv_swap: swap It can also be used to replace programs that try to mount devices to determine if they are mountable filesystems.
* New API: part-to-dev: Convert partition name to device name.Richard Jones2010-09-151-1/+1
| | | | | This adds a formal API for going from a partition to the containing device, eg. /dev/sda1 -> /dev/sda
* build: require Augeas for library.Richard Jones2010-09-111-2/+2
| | | | | | Augeas has been required since we moved the inspection code to C, however we were not correctly enforcing this in configure.ac, nor correctly linking to the library until now.
* build: Don't distribute src/generator.ml, no longer exists.Richard Jones2010-09-111-1/+0
|
* Split generator into separate source files.Richard Jones2010-09-112-13200/+1
| | | | | | | | | | 'src/generator.ml' is no more. Instead the generator is logically split up over many different source files. Read generator/README for help and tips. We compile the generator down to bytecode, not native code. This means it will run more slowly, but is done for maximum portability.
