* docs: Add a section on security.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-131-1/+154

* docs: Rearrange guestfs(3) sections.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-131-254/+254
| | | | | | | | | | | This rearranges the sections into a more logical order: - synopsis and introduction - API-related overview sections - (security will go here, see next commit) - API in detail - architecture and other internals - usual end sections
* New APIs: inspect-get-package-format, inspect-get-package-management.Richard Jones2010-11-122-0/+167
| | | | This APIs reimplement some parts of virt-inspector in C.
* Don't need to include XDR headers in <guestfs.h>.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-111-0/+3
| | | | | | | Include the XDR headers in the internal guestfs-internal.h instead. This is knock-on effects to several other source files which were implicitly relying on indirectly loaded headers.
* lib: Make <guestfs.h> be completely generated.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-112-107/+2
| | | | | This removes the 'not-quite-separate' guestfs-actions.h and guestfs-structs.h files.
* Fix small typo in a comment in src/Makefile.am.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-111-1/+1

* New API: add-domainRichard Jones2010-11-112-1/+325
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This new API allows you to add the disks from a libvirt domain. In guestfish you can use the 'domain' command to access the API, eg: ><fs> domain Fedora14 libvirturi:qemu:///system 1 The returned number is the number of disks that were added. Also here is a proposed (but commented out) low-level API which would allow you to add a domain from a virDomainPtr. However there are several problems with this API -- see discussion on the list: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-November/thread.html#00028
* New API: debug-cmdline for printing QEMU command line (internal only).Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-101-0/+24
| | | | | This is an internal-only debugging API so may be changed or removed at any time in the future.
* Add internal facility to checkpoint and roll back the command line.Richard Jones2010-11-102-0/+22
| | | | | This internal interface can be used to ensure that certain operations are atomic.
* lib: Make pcre, libmagic and hivex libraries optional.Richard Jones2010-11-106-427/+647
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change makes these libraries optional. If they are not available at compile time then certain core API features will be disabled (see below). This also changes PCRE detection to use pkg-config instead of the ad hoc autoconf checks. The large inspect.c file has been split out into separate function-specific files. file-architecture: requires pcre & libmagic inspection: requires pcre & hivex
* inspect: win64 regexp was dead code.Richard Jones2010-11-101-2/+0
|
* lib: Augeas (client side) is not needed by the library.Richard Jones2010-11-101-2/+1
| | | | However it is used by the daemon.
* supermin: If disabled, don't compile in supermin code or check for supermin.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-081-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | If supermin is disabled at compile time and the user just wants to use the ordinary appliance, there is no need to compile in all the supermin code, and in particular there is no need to check for the supermin appliance (which involves running febootstrap-supermin-helper that probably doesn't exist). This fixes a warning message observed under Debian w/o supermin: sh: febootstrap-supermin-helper: command not found
* Add missing generated files to the tarball (thanks maksbotan).Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-071-1/+1
| | | | | | | | C# bindings were omitted entirely. Add a Makefile.am for this directory even though we don't build these. Because of a missing backslash, some POD files were not being included.
* New API: inspect-get-roots to return roots from last inspection.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-051-20/+34
| | | | | Return the roots found by the last call to inspect-os, but without redoing the whole inspection.
* Include <stdarg.h> in public header.Guido Günther2010-11-051-0/+1
| | | | | Public headers use va_list, and this gives an error unless <stdarg.h> had been included before the header.
* docs: Fix API support script.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-04176-28/+6066
| | | | | Before libguestfs 1.0.69 we needed to look in src/guestfs.c to see all the API calls.
* docs: Which API calls were first supported in which upstream versions.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-04178-1/+40760
| | | | | | | | Run src/api-support/update-from-tarballs.sh (this won't work unless you have a local copy of the tarballs from the website). src/api-support/added contains the result of running the script, a list of pairs: (API name, version first appeared).
* docs: Clarify no additional error available from guestfs_create.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-031-0/+6

* lib: Expose errno through new API guestfs_last_errno.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-035-28/+98
| | | | | | | If either the daemon sends back an errno, or a system call fails in the library, save the errno in the handle and then make it available to callers through the guestfs_last_errno function.
* daemon: Send back the errno as a string.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-031-0/+3
| | | | | | | | This changes the protocol again so that if the errno is available, it is converted to a string (like "EIO") and sent back over the protocol to the library. In this commit the library just discards the string.

* 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.
* doc: Warn about security implications of running commands.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-281-0/+16

* 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.
* inspection: Ignore floppy disks and CD-ROM drives (RHBZ#642929).Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-0/+7

* Enable autosync by default.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-272-0/+4

* /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
| | | | | | | | | | | | The example below shows what the output looks like for a large random buffer. $ guestfish -N fs -m /dev/sda1 -x -- \ touch /test : \ pwrite /test "$(dd if=/dev/urandom bs=128k count=1)" 0 [...] pwrite "/test" "\x7f\xa0/\xb3\x80\xd3\xbc\xc3\xc3.\xb1\xe0\x1b\xafC\x06\xd5;\x0ajJ[o\xc1\xdd\xae\x1f\xce\xb2\x8d\xb3\xd0\x11\xcc$%\xe6<\xc7\xc7\xe7BU*\xc4l%\xaa\xea\xe9\x1an\xda]\xc6I\x0eC\xf9;\xec\x12a\x1f\xeaRH\xb2P\xd6+\xc4\xe6\xa5bW\x99\\x9d\xc8\x9bJ\xef\x99-\x16:h5\xe2\x0f\xa2\xa08\x9bU\x0b$\x138\xcf\xd4j\x9b\x83{%\xac0\xdaa1Xx\xbd`\x8e\xdd\x82\x87\x07\x98\xd2\x9ed\x8bq\xd0\x1f5\x8f\xab\xad4z1\xda\xc4b\xc1\xbc\x0f\xaa\xea\xc1\x15(\xfd1\xc2\x0bF\xe6\x9e\xb0+/g\\xab\xb0b\xde_\xca\xf9\xad\xe1?%\x17\xad\x98\xa4e\xc1\xe0f'\x89\xe9>\xff\xadhYi\xe7\x8c]%\xef\xe0\xa1R\xe5\xd5\x03K\xefI\xdf\xad\xd3\x82\xdb\x0f\xdd\xc3\x8f"\xf1G\xea\xf9r\xdd\xff\x88\x81\xb7\xf2\x0e\x0f\x1d;:\xf2F1\xdb\xb5D\xa1^\x928\xf5\x8e)\xab\xc4\xc3H(\xd0ol\xc6\xe4\xd6\xa3L\x1c\x06\xf4"<truncated, original size 130567 bytes> 0 [...]
* 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.
* New API: pread-device, partial read for devices.Richard W.M. Jones2010-09-271-1/+1

* New API: pwrite-deviceRichard W.M. Jones2010-09-261-1/+1
| | | | | This is the same as the existing 'pwrite' API call, but allows you to write to a device.
