qemu: Refuse blockjobs on disk bus='sd' with -blockdev
We still have to use -drive to instantiate sd disks. Combining that with

network: force re-creation of iptables private chains on firewalld restart
When firewalld is stopped, it removes *all* iptables rules and chains,
including those added by libvirt. Since restarting firewalld means
stopping and then starting it, any time it is restarted, libvirt needs
to recreate all the private iptables chains it uses, along with all
the rules it adds.
We already have code in place to call networkReloadFirewallRules() any
time we're notified of a firewalld start, and
networkReloadFirewallRules() will call
networkPreReloadFirewallRules(), which calls
networkSetupPrivateChains(); unfortunately that last call is called
using virOnce(), meaning that it will only be called the first time
through networkPreReloadFirewallRules() after libvirtd starts - so of
course when firewalld is later restarted, the call to
networkSetupPrivateChains() is skipped.
The neat and tidy way to fix this would be if there was a standard way
to reset a pthread_once_t object so that the next time virOnce was
called, it would think the function hadn't been called, and call it
again. Unfortunately, there isn't any official way of doing that (we
*could* just fill it with 0 and hope for the best, but that doesn't
seem very safe.
So instead, this patch just adds a static variable called
chainInitDone, which is set to true after networkSetupPrivateChains()
is called for the first time, and then during calls to
networkPreReloadFirewallRules(), if chainInitDone is set, we call
networkSetupPrivateChains() directly instead of via virOnce().
It may seem unsafe to directly call a function that is meant to be
called only once, but I think in this case we're safe - there's
nothing in the function that is inherently "once only" - it doesn't
initialize anything that can't safely be re-initialized (as long as
two threads don't try to do it at the same time), and it only happens
when responding to a dbus message that firewalld has been started (and
I don't think it's possible for us to be processing two of those at
once), and even then only if the initial call to the function has
already been completed (so we're safe if we receive a firewalld
restart call at a time when we haven't yet called it, or even if
another thread is already in the process of executing it. The only
problematic bit I can think of is if another thread is in the process
of adding an iptable rule at the time we're executing this function,
but 1) none of those threads will be trying to add chains, and 2) if
there was a concurrency problem with other threads adding iptables
rules while firewalld was being restarted, it would still be a problem
even without this change.
This is yet another patch that fixes an occurrence of this error:
COMMAND_FAILED: '/usr/sbin/iptables -w10 -w --table filter --insert LIBVIRT_INP --in-interface virbr0 --protocol tcp --destination-port 67 --jump ACCEPT' failed: iptables: No chain/target/match by that name.

virDevMapperGetTargetsImpl: quit early if device is not a devmapper target
As suggested in the linked bug, libvirt should firstly check

Because if it isn't subsequent DM_DEVICE_DEPS task may not only
fail, but also yield different results. In the bugzilla this is
demonstrated by creating a devmapper target named 'loop0' and
then creating loop target /dev/loop0. When the latter is then
passed to a domain, our virDevMapperGetTargetsImpl() function
blindly asks devmapper to provide target dependencies for
/dev/loop0 and because of the way devmapper APIs work, it will
'sanitize' the input by using the last component only which is
'loop0' and thus return different results than expected.

systemd: start libvirtd after firewalld/iptables services
When a system has enabled the iptables/ip6tables services rather than
firewalld, there is no explicit ordering of the start of those
services vs. libvirtd. This creates a problem when libvirtd.service is
started before ip[6]tables, as the latter, when it finally is started,
will remove all of the iptables rules that had previously been added
by libvirt, including the custom chains where libvirt's rules are
kept. This results in an error message similar to the following when a
user subsequently tries to start a new libvirt network:
"Error while activating network: Call to virNetworkCreate failed:
internal error: Failed to apply firewall rules
/usr/sbin/ip6tables -w --table filter --insert LIBVIRT_FWO \
--in-interface virbr2 --jump REJECT:
ip6tables: No chain/target/match by that name."
(Prior to logging this error, it also would have caused failure to
forward (or block) traffic in some cases, e.g. for guests on a NATed
network, since libvirt's rules to forward/block had all been deleted
and libvirt didn't know about it, so it couldn't fix the problem)
When this happens, the problem can be remedied by simply restarting
libvirtd.service (which has the side-effect of reloading all
libvirt-generated firewall rules)
Instead, we can just explicitly stating in the libvirtd.service file
that libvirtd.service should start after ip6tables.service and
ip6tables.service, eliminating the race condition that leads to the
error.
There is also nothing (that I can see) in the systemd .service files
to guarantee that firewalld.service will be started (if enabled) prior
to libvirtd.service. The same error scenario given above would occur
if libvirtd.service started before firewalld.service. Even before
that, though libvirtd would have detected that firewalld.service was
disabled, and then turn off all firewalld support. So, for example,
firewalld's libvirt zone wouldn't be used, and most likely traffic
from guests would therefore be blocked (all with no external
indication of the source of the problem other than a debug-level log
when libvirtd was started saying that firewalld wasn't in use); also
libvirtd wouldn't notice when firewalld reloaded its rules (which also
simultaneously deletes all of libvirt's rules).
I'm not aware of any reports that have been traced back to
libvirtd.service starting before firewalld.service, but have seen that
error reported multiple times, and also don't see an existing
dependency that would guarantee firewalld.service starts before
libvirtd.service, so it's possible it's been happening and we just
haven't gotten to the bottom of it.
This patch adds an After= line to the libvirtd.service file for each
of iptables.service, ip6tables.service, and firewalld.servicee, which
should guarantee that libvirtd.service isn't started until systemd has
started whichever of the others is enabled.
This race was diagnosed, and patch proposed, by Jason Montleon in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1723698 . At the time (April 2019) danpb
agreed with him that this change to libvirtd.service was a reasonable
thing to do, but I guess everyone thought someone else was going to
post a patch, so in the end nobody did.

added to QEMU to mitigate Spectre vulnerabilities in Power chips.
It was implemented in QEMU 2.12 by commit 6898aed77f46.
This capability is still used today due to differences in how
the host setup (hardware and firmware/kernel) can handle this
mitigation. Its default value also varies with the pseries machine
version of the time. There's also certain OSes, like AIX, that
might not support the default value of the pseries machine the
guest uses.
Exposing this in the Libvirt XML as a feature will allow users to tune
CFPC values in a cleaner way, instead of hacking parameters in
<qemu:commandline> elements.

network: Remove memory leak caused by wrong initialization
This commit fix a wrong variable initialization. There is a variable
called `new_lease` which is being initialized with the content of
parameter `lease`. To avoid memory leak, the proper way is initialize
with NULL first. This wrong statement was added by commit 97a0aa24.
There are some other improvements also.

qemumonitortestutils: Enforce consumption of all items in test monitor
To prevent unexpected situations where a change in code would stop
looking at some of the tested commands go unnoticed add a mechanism to

Since there are a few tests which would be hard to fix add also a
mechanism to opt-out of the check.

qemumonitortestutils: Make test monitor failures more prominent
Until now we've tried to report errors from the test monitor code by
passing them back as failures from the qemu we simulate. This doesn't
work well in cases when the monitor logic does not detect failures or
has fallback code. Additionally there isn't much use for continuing the
test execution after first failure as in most cases the test data will
be misaligned and all other calls will fail as well.
To make the errors more obvious this patch moves away from reporting
them via the simulated monitor to reporting them to stderr and
exit()ing afterwards. While this might be less convenient
when developing tests it actually makes failures in the test suite
really obvious and doesn't require any opt-in from the tests themselves.

virStorageSourceParseNBDColonString: Rewrite to match what qemu does
Our implementation wasn't quite able to parse everything that qemu does.
This patch rewrites the parser to a code that semantically resembles the
combination of 'nbd_parse_filename' and 'inet_parse' methods in qemu to
be able to parse the strings in an equivalent manner.
The only thing that libvirt doesn't do is to check the lengths of
various components in the nbd string in places where qemu uses constant
size buffers.
The test cases validate that some of the corner cases involving colons
are parsed properly.
travis: explicitly include gnutls to ensure it is updated
Travis includes gnutls in the default package set, but it is
an outdated version linkng to an incompatible libffi version.
The 'update: true' stanza causes the brew toolchain to be
updated but not the installed formula. It is possible to
run 'brew upgrade' to update installed formula, but this is
very slow adding more than 5 minutes to the build time.
Listing the gnutls package explicitly causes it to be updated
without extending the build time.
