network: make networkCreateInterfacePool more robust
networkCreateInterfacePool was a bit loose in its error cleanup, which
could result in a network definition with interfaces in the pool that
were NULL. This would in turn lead to a libvirtd crash when a guest
tried to attach an interface using the network with that pool.
In particular this would happen when creating a pool to be used for
macvtap connections. macvtap needs the netdev name of the virtual
function in order to use it, and each VF only has a netdev name if it
is currently bound to a network driver. If one of the VFs of a PF
happened to be bound to the pci-stub or vfio-pci driver (indicating
it's already in use for PCI passthrough), or no driver at all, it
would have no name. In this case networkCreateInterfacePool would
return an error, but would leave the netdef->forward.nifs set to the
total number of VFs in the PF. The interface attach that triggered
calling of networkCreateInterfacePool (it uses a "lazy fill" strategy)
would simply fail, but the very next attempt to attach an interface
using the same network pool would result in a crash.
This patch refactors networkCreateInterfacePool to bring it more in
line with current coding practices (label name, use of a switch with
no default case) as well as providing the following two changes to
behavior:
1) If a VF with no netdev name is encountered, just log a warning and
continue; only fail if exactly 0 devices are found to put in the pool.
2) If the function fails, clean up any partial interface pool and set
netdef->forward.nifs to 0.

blockjob: fix use-after-free in blockcopy
Commit febf84c2 tried to delay in-memory modification of the actual

setting disk->src = disk->mirror prior to the qemu command, in order
to label the backing chain of a reused external blockcopy disk;
and calls into qemu while still in that state before finally undoing
things at the cleanup label. Since the qemu event handler then does:
virStorageSourceFree(disk->src);
disk->src = disk->mirror;
we have the sad race that a fast enough qemu event can cause a leak of
the original disk->src, as well as a use-after-free of the disk->mirror
contents, bad enough to crash libvirtd in some of my test runs, even
though the common case of the qemu event being much later won't trip
the race.

Since commit be0782e1 we are parsing /proc/meminfo to find out the

not support any huge pages (e.g. CONFIG_HUGETLB_PAGE is turned off),
we will not successfully parse the meminfo file and hence the whole

is needed if and only if there's at least one hugetlbfs mount point.
So the fix consists of moving the virFileGetDefaultHugepageSize

With this fix, we fail to start with one or more hugetlbfs mounts and

hugetlbfs without kernel supporting huge pages?). Workaround in that

underway. Then at pivot, we were indirectly writing new XML in
reaction to events that occur as we stop and restart the guest CPUs.
But there was a race: since pivot is an async action, it is possible
that libvirtd is restarted before the pivot completes, so if XML
changes during the event, that change was not written. The original
blockcopy code cleared out the <mirror> element prior to restarting
the CPUs, but this is also a race, observed if a user does an async
pivot and a dumpxml before the event occurs. Furthermore, this race
will interfere with active commit in a future patch, because that
code will rely on the <mirror> element at the time of the qemu event
to determine whether to inform the user of a normal commit or an
active commit.
Fix things by saving state any time we modify live XML, while
delaying XML disk modifications until after the event completes. We
still need a to teach libvirtd restarts to examine all existing
<mirror> elements to see if the job completed in the meantime (that
is, if libvirtd misses the event, the updated state still needs to be
updated in live XML), but that will be a later patch, in part because
we also need to to start taking advantage of newer qemu's ability to
keep the job around after completion rather than the current usage
where the job disappears both on error and on success.

rewrites...
