2012-04-16Kick io-thread on qemu_chr_accept_inputJan Kiszka
Once a chr frontend is able to receive input again, we need to inform the io-thread about this fact. Otherwise, main_loop_wait may continue to select without the related backend file descriptor in its set. This can cause high input latencies if only low-rate events arrive otherwise.

2012-02-24Revert "qemu-char: Print strerror message on failure" and depsMarkus Armbruster
The commit's purpose is laudable: The only way for chardev drivers to communicate an error was to return a NULL pointer, which resulted in an error message that said _that_ something went wrong, but not _why_. It attempts to achieve it by changing the interface to return 0/-errno and update qemu_chr_open_opts() to use strerror() to display a more helpful error message. Unfortunately, it has serious flaws: 1. Backends "socket" and "udp" return bogus error codes, because qemu_chr_open_socket() and qemu_chr_open_udp() assume that unix_listen_opts(), unix_connect_opts(), inet_listen_opts(), inet_connect_opts() and inet_dgram_opts() fail with errno set appropriately. That assumption is wrong, and the commit turns unspecific error messages into misleading error messages. For instance: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx inet_connect: host and/or port not specified chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: No such file or directory ENOENT is what happens to be in my errno when the backend returns -errno. Let's put ERANGE there just for giggles: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx -drive if=none,iops=99999999999999999999 inet_connect: host and/or port not specified chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: Numerical result out of range Worse: when errno happens to be zero, return -errno erroneously signals success, and qemu_chr_new_from_opts() dies dereferencing uninitialized chr. I observe this with "-serial unix:". 2. All qemu_chr_open_opts() knows about the error is an errno error code. That's simply not enough for a decent message. For instance, when inet_dgram() can't resolve the parameter host, which errno code should it use? What if it can't resolve parameter localaddr? Clue: many backends already report errors in their open methods. Let's revert the flawed commit along with its dependencies, and fix up the silent error paths instead. This reverts commit 6e1db57b2ac9025c2443c665a0d9e78748637b26. Conflicts: console.c hw/baum.c qemu-char.c This reverts commit aad04cd024f0c59f0b96f032cde2e24eb3abba6d.

2011-07-23Introduce a 'client_add' monitor command accepting an open FDDaniel P. Berrange
Allow client connections for VNC and socket based character devices to be passed in over the monitor using SCM_RIGHTS. One intended usage scenario is to start QEMU with VNC on a UNIX domain socket. An unprivileged user which cannot access the UNIX domain socket, can then connect to QEMU's VNC server by passing an open FD to libvirt, which passes it onto QEMU. { "execute": "get_fd", "arguments": { "fdname": "myclient" } } { "return": {} } { "execute": "add_client", "arguments": { "protocol": "vnc", "fdname": "myclient", "skipauth": true } } { "return": {} } In this case 'protocol' can be 'vnc' or 'spice', or the name of a character device (eg from -chardev id=XXXX) The 'skipauth' parameter can be used to skip any configured VNC authentication scheme, which is useful if the mgmt layer talking to the monitor has already authenticated the client in another way. * console.h: Define 'vnc_display_add_client' method * monitor.c: Implement 'client_add' command * qemu-char.c, qemu-char.h: Add 'qemu_char_add_client' method * qerror.c, qerror.h: Add QERR_ADD_CLIENT_FAILED * qmp-commands.hx: Declare 'client_add' command * ui/vnc.c: Implement 'vnc_display_add_client' method Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
