[libvirt] [PATCH] error: add new error type for reflecting partial API support
by Eric Blake 22 Jul '11

22 Jul '11

VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG implies that an argument cannot possibly be correct, given the current state of the API. VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED implies that a configuration is wrong, but arguments aren't configuration. VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT implies that a function is completely unimplemented. But in the case of a function that is partially implemented, yet the full power of the API is not available for that driver, none of the above messages make sense. Hence a new error message, implying that the argument is known to comply with the current state of the API, and that while the driver supports aspects of the function, it does not support that particular use of the argument. A good use case for this is a driver that supports virDomainSaveFlags, but not the dxml argument of that API. It might be feasible to also use this new error for all functions that check flags, and which accept fewer flags than what is possible in the public API. But doing so would get complicated, since neither libvirt.c nor the remote driver may do flag filtering, and every other driver would have to do a two-part check, first using virCheckFlags on all public flags (which gives VIR_ERR_INVALID_ARG for an impossible flag), followed by a particular mask check for VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED (for a possible public flag but unsupported by this driver). * include/libvirt/virterror.h (VIR_ERR_ARGUMENT_UNSUPPORTED): New error. * src/util/virterror.c (virErrorMsg): Give it a message.

[libvirt] [PATCHv2 00/13] New API: virDominDestroyFlags
by Michal Privoznik 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

This series creates new API which adds flags to virDomainDestroy. As mentioned here many times, it is a bad luck all APIs don't have flags parameter. Parameter for this might be needed to select different ways of destroying a domain. For example, qemu has 'quit' command, which force it to flush internal caches a thus preventing from data loss. Or vice versa - in cases where we are doing hypervisor assisted destroy we might want to send signals, because hypervisor is not responding. Currently, no new functionality is implemented, but this paves the way for creating multiple ways of domain destroying. Therefore, calling this new API is the same as calling its predecessor. diff to v1: -rename virDominDestroyWithFlags() to virDominDestroyFlags() -rename enum virDominDestroyFlags to virDominDestroyFlagsValues Michal Privoznik (13): destroy: Define new public API virDomainDestroyFlags destroy: Wire up the remote protocol destroy: Implement internal API for qemu driver destroy: Implement internal API for ESX driver destroy: Implement internal API for libxl driver destroy: Implement internal API for lxc driver destroy: Implement internal API for openvz driver destroy: Implement internal API for phyp driver destroy: Implement internal API for uml driver destroy: Implement internal API for vbox driver destroy: Implement internal API for vmware driver destroy: Implement internal API for xen driver destroy: Implement internal API for xenapi driver include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in | 7 +++++ src/driver.h | 4 +++ src/esx/esx_driver.c | 12 +++++++++- src/libvirt.c | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/libvirt_public.syms | 1 + src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 12 +++++++++- src/lxc/lxc_driver.c | 23 +++++++++++++++++- src/openvz/openvz_driver.c | 13 +++++++++- src/phyp/phyp_driver.c | 12 +++++++++- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 13 +++++++++- src/remote/remote_driver.c | 1 + src/remote/remote_protocol.x | 8 +++++- src/remote_protocol-structs | 5 ++++ src/uml/uml_driver.c | 14 ++++++++++- src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c | 14 ++++++++++- src/vmware/vmware_driver.c | 12 +++++++++- src/xen/xen_driver.c | 28 ++++++++++++++++++++++ src/xen/xen_driver.h | 1 + src/xen/xen_hypervisor.c | 24 +++++++++++++++++- src/xen/xen_hypervisor.h | 3 ++ src/xen/xen_inotify.c | 1 + src/xen/xend_internal.c | 24 +++++++++++++++++- src/xen/xm_internal.c | 1 + src/xen/xs_internal.c | 1 + src/xenapi/xenapi_driver.c | 22 ++++++++++++++++- 25 files changed, 291 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) -- 1.7.5.rc3

This extension of flags used while undefining domains grants the user ability to remove virtual storage devices while undefining a domain.

[libvirt] [PATCH v2] rpc: Make the dispatch generator handle 'void name(void)' style procedures
by Matthias Bolte 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

The only 'void name(void)' style procedure in the protocol is 'close' that is handled special, but also programming errors like a missing _args or _ret suffix on the structs in the .x files can create such a situation by accident. Making the generator aware of this avoids bogus errors from the generator such as: Use of uninitialized value in exists at ./rpc/gendispatch.pl line 967. Also this allows to get rid of the -c option and the special case code for the 'close' procedure, as the generator handles it now correctly.

[libvirt] [PATCH] error: preserve errno when saving last error
by Eric Blake 21 Jul '11

21 Jul '11

It is common to see the sequence: virErrorPtr save_err = virSaveLastError(); // do cleanup virSetError(save_err); virFreeError(save_err); on cleanup paths. But for functions where it is desirable to return the errno that caused failure, this sequence can clobber that errno. virFreeError was already safe; this makes the other two functions in the sequence safe as well, assuming all goes well (on OOM, errno will be clobbered, but then again, save_err won't reflect the real error that happened, so you are no longer preserving the real situation - that's life with OOM). * src/util/virterror.c (virSaveLastError, virSetError): Preserve errno. --- Fixes an errno-clobbering situation pointed out here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-July/msg01382.html src/util/virterror.c | 17 +++++++++++++---- 1 files changed, 13 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/util/virterror.c b/src/util/virterror.c index 0c7698a..07f8b45 100644 --- a/src/util/virterror.c +++ b/src/util/virterror.c @@ -295,18 +295,24 @@ virGetLastError(void) * Can be used to re-set an old error, which may have been squashed by * other functions (like cleanup routines). * - * Returns 0 on success, 1 on failure + * Returns 0 on success, -1 on failure.
