libxl: fix libvirtd crash when reconnecting domains
More fallout from commit d72ef888. When reconnecting to running
domains, the libxl_ctx in libxlDomainObjPrivate was used before
initializing it, causing a segfault in libxl and consequently
crashing libvirtd.
Initialize the libxlDomainObjPrivate libxl_ctx in libxlReconnectDomain,
and while at it use this ctx in libxlReconnectDomain instead of the
driver-wide ctx.
When doing a live migration, if the destination fails for any
reason after the point in which files should be labeled, then
the cleanup of the destination would restore the labels to their
defaults, even though the source is still trying to continue
running with the image open. Bug 822052 mentioned one source
of live migration failure - a mismatch in SELinux virt_use_nfs
settings (on for source, off for destination); but I found other
situations that would also trigger it (for example, having a
graphics device tied to port 5999 on the source, and a different
domain on the destination already using that port, so that the
destination cannot reuse the port).
In short, just as cleanup of the source on a successful migration
must not relabel files (because the destination would be crippled
by the relabel), cleanup of the destination on a failed migration
must not relabel files (because the source would be crippled).
* src/qemu/qemu_process.c (qemuProcessStart): Set flag to avoid

libvirt at non-existent certificate files, typically causing
a crash.

libxl: Resolve possible NULL dereference
If we reached cleanup: prior to allocating cpus, it was possible that
'nr_nodes' had a value, but cpus was NULL leading to a possible NULL
deref. Add a 'cpus' as an end condition to for loop
Commit 904e05a2 (v0.9.9) added a per-<disk> seclabel element with
an attribute relabel='no' in order to try and minimize the
impact of shutdown delays when an NFS server disappears. The idea
was that if a disk is on NFS and can't be labeled in the first
place, there is no need to attempt the (no-op) relabel on domain
shutdown. Unfortunately, the way this was implemented was by
modifying the domain XML so that the optimization would survive
libvirtd restart, but in a way that is indistinguishable from an
explicit user setting. Furthermore, once the setting is turned
on, libvirt avoids attempts at labeling, even for operations like
snapshot or blockcopy where the chain is being extended or pivoted
onto non-NFS, where SELinux labeling is once again possible. As
a result, it was impossible to do a blockcopy to pivot from an
NFS image file onto a local file.
The solution is to separate the semantics of a chain that must
not be labeled (which the user can set even on persistent domains)
vs. the optimization of not attempting a relabel on cleanup (a
live-only annotation), and using only the user's explicit notation
rather than the optimization as the decision on whether to skip
a label attempt in the first place. When upgrading an older
libvirtd to a newer, an NFS volume will still attempt the relabel;
but as the avoidance of a relabel was only an optimization, this
shouldn't cause any problems.
In the ideal future, libvirt will eventually have XML describing
EVERY file in the backing chain, with each file having a separate
<seclabel> element. At that point, libvirt will be able to track
more closely which files need a relabel attempt at shutdown. But
until we reach that point, the single <seclabel> for the entire
<disk> chain is treated as a hint - when a chain has only one
file, then we know it is accurate; but if the chain has more than
one file, we have to attempt relabel in spite of the attribute,
in case part of the chain is local and SELinux mattered for that
portion of the chain.
