* po/*po*: updated spanish and russian localisations, rebuilt
Added support for product/vendor based passthrough, but it only
worked at the security driver layer. The main guest XML config
was not updated with the resolved bus/device ID. When the QEMU
argv refactoring removed use of product/vendor, this then broke
launching guests.
THe solution is to move the product/vendor resolution up a layer
into the QEMU driver. So the first thing QEMU does is resolve
the product/vendor to a bus/device and updates the XML config
with this info. The rest of the code, including security drivers
and QEMU argv generated can now rely on bus/device always being
set.

Previously hot-unplug could not be supported for USB devices

now unplug based on device alias, so support that.

Tweak container initialization to make upstart/init happier
Upstart crashes & burns in a heap if $TERM environment variable
is missing. Presumably the kernel always sets this when booting
init on a real machine, so libvirt should set it for containers
too.
To make a typical inittab / mingetty setup happier, we need to
symlink the primary console /dev/pts/0 to /dev/tty1.
Improve logging in certain scenarios to make troubleshooting
easier
* src/lxc/lxc_container.c: Create /dev/tty1 and set $TERM
When using the 'ns' cgroup controller, the moment a process calls
'unshare(CLONE_NEWNS)', it will be given a private cgroup tree
under its current location. This really messages up the LXC
controller process, because it ends up creating the containers'
cgroup in the wrong place. The fix is fairly easy, just move
the cgroup setup before the code which calls unshare(). The
'ns' controller will still create extra undesired cgroups, but
they at least won't break libvirt's setup now.
The patch also adds a missing cgroups allow rule for /dev/tty
device node
Avoid creating top level cgroups if just querying for existance
When getting the driver/domain cgroup it is possible to specify
whether it should be auto created. If auto-creation was turned
off, libvirt still mistakenly created its own top level cgroup

Change default for storage uid/gid from getuid()/getgid() to -1/-1
This allows the config to have a setting that means "leave it alone",
eg when building a pool where the directory already exists the user
may want the current uid/gid of the directory left intact. This
actually gets us back to older behavior - before recent changes to the
pool building code, we weren't as insistent about honoring the uid/gid
settings in the XML, and virt-manager was taking advantage of this
behavior.
As a side benefit, removing calls to getuid/getgid from the XML
parsing functions also seems like a good idea. And having a default
that is different from a common/useful value (0 == root) is a good
thing in general, as it removes ambiguity from decisions (at least one
place in the code was checking for (perms.uid == 0) to see if a
special uid was requested).
Note that this will only affect newly created pools and volumes. Due
to the way that the XML is parsed, then formatted for newly created
volumes, all existing pools/volumes already have an explicit uid and
gid set.

of uid/gid, and set them to -1 instead

same AC_SEARCH_LIBS function as used before to look for it and add it to
the Makefile.
QEMU has a monitor command 'set_cpu' which allows a specific
CPU to be toggled between online& offline state. libvirt CPU

Thus to support this, we iteratively toggle the online state

Ignore SIGWINCH in remote client call to poll(2) (RHBZ#567931).
In bug 567931 we found that virt-top would exit occasionally
when the terminal window was resized. Tracking this down it
turned out that SIGWINCH was being delivered to the process at
exactly the point where the libvirt remote driver was calling
poll(2) waiting for a reply from libvirtd.
This caused the poll(2) call to be interrupted (returning errno
EINTR). However handling EINTR the same way as EAGAIN was not
the solution to this problem since we found previously that this
would break Ctrl-C handling (commit 47fec8eac2bb3).
The correct solution is to mask out SIGWINCH for the duration
of the poll(2) system call. The per-thread mask is changed and
restored immediately after the call. Since we are using
pthread_sigmask, this should not affect other threads, and
since we restore the signal mask immediately afterwards it should
not affect the current thread visibly either. Other possibly
problematic signals are SIGCHLD and SIGPIPE and these are
masked too.
Note use of ignore_value: It's not fatal if we cannot mask out
SIGWINCH, and in any case pthread_sigmask never fails on Linux
as long as you supply the correct arguments.

improved prerequisite tool checking.
This also fixes a bug in the .pot files, regarding the copyright holder.
* bootstrap: Update to version in .gnulib/build-aux.
* bootstrap.conf (MSGID_BUGS_ADDRESS, COPYRIGHT_HOLDER, SKIP_PO)
(gnulib_mk, ACLOCAL, bootstrap_epilogue): Provide overrides.
* autogen.sh (autoreconf): Avoid redundant autoreconf if bootstrap
was run.
* po/Makevars: Delete, now that bootstrap creates it.
* po/.gitignore: Update.

maint: start factoring bootstrap
Borrow ideas from gnulib/build-aux/bootstrap, in order to factor the
specifics of libvirt into bootstrap.conf, while allowing future
upgrades of bootstrap to happen with less effort.
* bootstrap (gnulib_tool): Update invocation to be closer to
gnulib's version. Move libvirt specifics...
* bootstrap.conf: ...into new file.
