[libvirt] [PATCH 0/5] Use virtlogd for chardevs & support logging

This series of patches does two things * Converts the type=file chardev over to use virtlogd (assuming use of virtlogd is enabled in qemu.conf) * Adds a <log file="..."/> element to all chardev sources, allowing data to be captured to a logfile Both of these are important features wanted by openstack. The first thing fixes a long standing security issue that a guest OS can trivially exhuast host disk space by outputing lots of data to its serial port. The second thing allows OpenStack to record boot up messages for a guest's serial console, while still allowing interactive serial console ussage. ie the serial port will be configured with type=tcp, and the new <log> element used to record the data. Both these thing required changes in QEMU, which have been merged for the forthcoming QEMU 2.6 release. Daniel P. Berrange (5): logging: allow inode/offset params to be NULL conf: allow use of a logfile with chardev backends qemu: add support for logging chardev output to a file qemu: use virtlogd for character device log files qemu: support use of virtlogd with file based chardevs docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 12 + src/conf/domain_conf.c | 28 ++ src/conf/domain_conf.h | 2 + src/logging/log_daemon_dispatch.c | 3 +- src/logging/log_handler.c | 6 +- src/logging/log_handler.h | 2 +- src/logging/log_manager.c | 6 +- src/logging/log_manager.h | 2 + src/logging/log_protocol.x | 4 + src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c | 2 + src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.h | 1 + src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 295 ++++++++++++++------- src/qemu/qemu_command.h | 7 +- src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 6 + src/qemu/qemu_domain.h | 3 + src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 2 +- src/qemu/qemu_process.c | 4 +- .../qemuxml2argv-serial-file-log.args | 25 ++ .../qemuxml2argv-serial-file-log.xml | 39 +++ tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c | 4 +- 20 files changed, 350 insertions(+), 103 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-serial-file-log.args create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/qemuxml2argv-serial-file-log.xml -- 2.5.0
