2018-10-02util: add qemu_write_pidfile()Marc-André Lureau
There are variants of qemu_create_pidfile() in qemu-pr-helper and qemu-ga. Let's have a common implementation in libqemuutil. The code is initially based from pr-helper write_pidfile(), with various improvements and suggestions from Daniel Berrangé: QEMU will leave the pidfile existing on disk when it exits which initially made me think it avoids the deletion race. The app managing QEMU, however, may well delete the pidfile after it has seen QEMU exit, and even if the app locks the pidfile before deleting it, there is still a race. eg consider the following sequence QEMU 1 libvirtd QEMU 2 1. lock(pidfile) 2. exit() 3. open(pidfile) 4. lock(pidfile) 5. open(pidfile) 6. unlink(pidfile) 7. close(pidfile) 8. lock(pidfile) IOW, at step 8 the new QEMU has successfully acquired the lock, but the pidfile no longer exists on disk because it was deleted after the original QEMU exited. While we could just say no external app should ever delete the pidfile, I don't think that is satisfactory as people don't read docs, and admins don't like stale pidfiles being left around on disk. To make this robust, I think we might want to copy libvirt's approach to pidfile acquisition which runs in a loop and checks that the file on disk /after/ acquiring the lock matches the file that was locked. Then we could in fact safely let QEMU delete its own pidfiles on clean exit..

2018-08-23qemu-pr-helper: Fix build on CentOS 7Murilo Opsfelder Araujo
After commit b3f1c8c413bc83e4a2cc7a63e4eddf9fe6449052 "qemu-pr-helper: use new libmultipath API", QEMU started using new libmultipath API, which is not available on CentOS 7.x. This fixes that by probing the new libmultipath API in configure. If it fails, then try probing the old API. If it fails, then consider libmultipath not available. With this, configure script defines CONFIG_MPATH_NEW_API that is used in scsi/qemu-pr-helper.c to use the new libmultipath API.

2018-07-06pr-helper: Rework socket path handlingMichal Privoznik
When reviewing Paolo's pr-helper patches I've noticed couple of problems: 1) socket_path needs to be calculated at two different places (one for printing out help, the other if socket activation is NOT used), 2) even though the default socket_path is allocated in compute_default_paths() it is the only default path the function handles. For instance, pidfile is allocated outside of this function. And yet again, at different places than 1) Signed-off-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com> Message-Id: <c791ba035f26ea957e8f3602e3009b621769b1ba.1530611283.git.mprivozn@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
2018-07-06pr-helper: avoid error on PR IN command with zero request sizePaolo Bonzini
After reading a PR IN command with zero request size in prh_read_request, the resp->result field will be uninitialized and the resp.sz field will be also uninitialized when returning to prh_co_entry. If resp->result == GOOD (from a previous successful reply or just luck), then the assert in prh_write_response might not be triggered and uninitialized response will be sent. The fix is to remove the whole handling of sz == 0 in prh_co_entry. Those errors apply only to PR OUT commands and it's perfectly okay to catch them later in do_pr_out and multipath_pr_out; the check for too-short parameters in fact doesn't apply in the easy SG_IO case, as it can be left to the target firmware even. The result is that prh_read_request does not fail requests anymore and prh_co_entry becomes simpler.

2018-06-28pr-helper: fix assertion failure on failed multipath PERSISTENT RESERVE INPaolo Bonzini
The response size is expected to be zero if the SCSI status is not "GOOD", but nothing was resetting it. This can be reproduced simply by "sg_persist -s /dev/sdb" where /dev/sdb in the guest is a scsi-block device corresponding to a multipath device on the host. Before: PR in (Read full status): Aborted command and on the host: prh_write_response: Assertion `resp->sz == 0' failed. After: PR in (Read full status): bad field in cdb or parameter list (perhaps unsupported service action) Reported-by: Jiri Belka <jbelka@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michal Privoznik <mprivozn@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <f4bug@amsat.org>

2018-04-09qemu-pr-helper: Daemonize before dropping privilegesMichal Privoznik
After we've dropped privileges it might be not possible to write pidfile. For instance, if this binary is run as root (because user wants it to write pidfile to some privileged location) writing pidfile fails because privileges are dropped before we even get to that.

2018-03-12Polish the version strings containing the package versionThomas Huth
Since commit 67a1de0d195a there is no space anymore between the version number and the parentheses when running configure with --with-pkgversion=foo : $ qemu-system-s390x --version QEMU emulator version 2.11.50(foo) But the space is included when building without that option when building from a git checkout: $ qemu-system-s390x --version QEMU emulator version 2.11.50 (v2.11.0-1494-gbec9c64-dirty) The same confusion exists with the "query-version" QMP command. Let's fix this by introducing a proper QEMU_FULL_VERSION definition that includes the space and parentheses, while the QEMU_PKGVERSION should just cleanly contain the package version string itself. Note that this also changes the behavior of the "query-version" QMP command (the space and parentheses are not included there anymore), but that's supposed to be OK since the strings there are not meant to be parsed by other tools.

2017-10-18qemu-pr-helper: use new libmultipath APIPaolo Bonzini
libmultipath has recently changed its API. The new API supports multi-threaded clients better. Unfortunately there is no backwards-compatibility, so we just switch to the new one. Running QEMU compiled with the new library on the old library will likely crash, while doing the opposite will cause QEMU not to start at all (because udev, get_multipath_config and put_multipath_config are undefined).

2017-09-22scsi: add multipath support to qemu-pr-helperPaolo Bonzini
Proper support of persistent reservation for multipath devices requires communication with the multipath daemon, so that the reservation is registered and applied when a path comes up. The device mapper utilities provide a library to do so; this patch makes qemu-pr-helper.c detect multipath devices and, when one is found, delegate the operation to libmpathpersist.

2017-09-22scsi: build qemu-pr-helperPaolo Bonzini
Introduce a privileged helper to run persistent reservation commands. This lets virtual machines send persistent reservations without using CAP_SYS_RAWIO or out-of-tree patches. The helper uses Unix permissions and SCM_RIGHTS to restrict access to processes that can access its socket and prove that they have an open file descriptor for a raw SCSI device. The next patch will also correct the usage of persistent reservations with multipath devices. It would also be possible to support for Linux's IOC_PR_* ioctls in the future, to support NVMe devices. For now, however, only SCSI is supported. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>
