qemu-ga: guest-shutdown: use only async-signal-safe functions
POSIX mandates[1] that a child process of a multi-thread program uses only async-signal-safe functions before exec(). We consider qemu-ga to be multi-thread, because it uses glib. However, qmp_guest_shutdown() uses functions that are not async-signal-safe. Fix it the following way: - fclose() -> reopen_fd_to_null() - execl() -> execle() - exit() -> _exit() - drop slog() usage (which is not safe) [1] http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/functions/fork.html Signed-off-by: Luiz Capitulino <lcapitulino@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael Roth <mdroth@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
