39097daf15 qemu-ga: use key-value store to avoid recycling fd handles after restart
Hosts hold on to handles provided by guest-file-open for periods that can
span beyond the life of the qemu-ga process that issued them. Since these
are issued starting from 0 on every restart, we run the risk of issuing
duplicate handles after restarts/reboots.

As a result, users with a stale copy of these handles may end up
reading/writing corrupted data due to their existing handles effectively
being re-assigned to an unexpected file or offset.

We unfortunately do not issue handles as strings, but as integers, so a
solution such as using UUIDs can't be implemented without introducing a
new interface.

As a workaround, we fix this by implementing a persistent key-value store
that will be used to track the value of the last handle that was issued
across restarts/reboots to avoid issuing duplicates.

The store is automatically written to the same directory we currently
set via --statedir to track fsfreeze state, and so should be applicable
for stable releases where this flag is supported.

A follow-up can use this same store for handling fsfreeze state, but
that change is cosmetic and left out for now.

ec0f694c11 qemu-ga: execute hook to quiesce the guest on fsfreeze-freeze/thaw
To use the online disk snapshot for online-backup, application-level
consistency of the snapshot image is required. However, currently the
guest agent can provide only filesystem-level consistency, and the
snapshot may contain dirty data, for example, incomplete transactions.
This patch provides the opportunity to quiesce applications before
snapshot is taken.

If --fsfreeze-hook option is specified, the hook is executed with
"freeze" argument before the filesystem is frozen by fsfreeze-freeze
command. As for fsfreeze-thaw command, the hook is executed with "thaw"
argument after the filesystem is thawed.

This patch depends on patchset to improve error reporting by Luiz Capitulino:

NUL-termination of the .ifr_name field is not required, but is fine
(and preferable to using strncpy and leaving the reader to wonder),
since the first thing the linux kernel does is to clear the last byte.
Besides, using pstrcpy here makes this setting of ifr_name consistent
with the other code (e.g., net/tap-linux.c) that does the same thing.

eab5fd5989 qemu-ga: add guest-fstrim command
FITRIM is a mounted filesystem feature to discard (or "trim") blocks which
are not in use by the filesystem. This is useful for solid-state drives
(SSDs) and thinly-provisioned storage.  Provide access to the feature
from the host so that filesystems can be trimmed periodically or before
migration.

Here is an example using scsi_debug:

    # modprobe scsi_debug lbpu=1 lbpws=1
    # sg_vpd -p0xb2 /dev/sdb
    Logical block provisioning VPD page (SBC):

9e2fa418fb qemu-ga: avoid blocking on atime update when reading /etc/mtab
Currently we re-read/re-process /etc/mtab to get an updated list of
mounts when guest-fsfreeze-thaw is called. This can cause an atime
update on /etc/mtab, which will block if we're in a frozen state.

Instead, use /proc's version of mtab, which may not be up-to-date with
options passed via -o remount, but is compatible for our use cases since
we only care about the filesystem type.

Commit 3674838cd0 uses the environ global

This worked for me because on F16 environ is declared in <unistd.h>, but

This commit fixes the build error by declaring environ if it hasn't
being declared yet.

Also fixes a build warning due to a missing <sys/wait.h> include.

3674838cd0 qemu-ga: guest-shutdown: use only async-signal-safe functions
POSIX mandates[1] that a child process of a multi-thread program uses
only async-signal-safe functions before exec(). We consider qemu-ga
to be multi-thread, because it uses glib.

However, qmp_guest_shutdown() uses functions that are not
async-signal-safe. Fix it the following way:

- fclose() -> reopen_fd_to_null()
- execl() -> execle()
- exit() -> _exit()
- drop slog() usage (which is not safe)

d5dd3498eb qemu-ga: guest-shutdown: become synchronous
Last commit dropped qemu-ga's SIGCHLD handler, used to automatically
reap terminated children processes. This introduced a bug to
qmp_guest_shutdown(): it will generate zombies.

This problem probably doesn't matter in the success case, as the VM
will shutdown anyway, but let's do the right thing and reap the
created process. This ultimately means that guest-shutdown is now a
synchronous command.

An interesting side effect is that guest-shutdown is now able to
report an error to the client if shutting down fails.

dc8764f061 qemu-ga: guest-suspend: make the API synchronous
Currently, qemu-ga has a SIGCHLD handler that automatically reaps terminated
children processes. The idea is to avoid having qemu-ga commands blocked
waiting for children to terminate.

That approach has two problems:

 1. qemu-ga is unable to detect errors in the child, meaning that qemu-ga
    returns success even if the child fails to perform its task

 2. if a command does depend on the child exit status, the command has to
    play tricks to bypass the automatic reaper

Case 2 impacts the guest-suspend-* API, because it has to execute an external
program to check for suspend support. Today, to bypass the automatic reaper,
suspend code has to double fork and pass exit status information through a
pipe. Besides being complex, this is prone to race condition bugs. Indeed,
the current code does have such bugs.

Making the guest-suspend-* API synchronous (ie. by dropping the SIGCHLD
handler and calling waitpid() from commands) is a much simpler approach,
which fixes current race conditions bugs and enables commands to detect
errors in the child.

This commit does just that. There's a side effect though, guest-shutdown
will generate zombies if shutting down fails. This will be fixed by the
next commit.

9e8aded432 qemu-ga: improve recovery options for fsfreeze
guest-fsfreeze-thaw relies on state information obtained from
guest-fsfreeze-freeze to determine what filesystems to unfreeze.
This is unreliable due to the fact that that state does not account
for FIFREEZE being issued by other processes, or previous instances
of qemu-ga. This means in certain situations we cannot thaw
filesystems even with a responsive qemu-ga instance at our disposal.

This patch allows guest-fsfreeze-thaw to be issued unconditionally.
It also adds some additional logic to allow us to thaw filesystems
regardless of how many times the filesystem's "frozen" refcount has
been incremented by any guest processes.

Also, guest-fsfreeze-freeze now operates atomically: on success all
freezable filesystems are frozen, and on error all filesystems are
thawed. The ambiguous "GUEST_FSFREEZE_STATUS_ERROR" state is no
longer entered.

3cf0bed836 qemu-ga: add guest-sync-delimited
guest-sync leaves it as an exercise to the user as to how to reliably
obtain the response to guest-sync if the client had previously read in a
partial response (due qemu-ga previously being restarted mid-"sentence"
due to reboot, forced restart, etc).

qemu-ga handles this situation on its end by having a client precede
their guest-sync request with a 0xFF byte (invalid UTF-8), which
qemu-ga/QEMU JSON parsers will treat as a flush event. Thus we can
reliably flush the qemu-ga parser state in preparation for receiving
the guest-sync request.

guest-sync-delimited provides the same functionality for a client: when
a guest-sync-delimited is issued, qemu-ga will precede it's response
with a 0xFF byte that the client can use as an indicator to flush its
buffer/parser state in preparation for reliably receiving the
guest-sync-delimited response.

It is also useful as an optimization for clients, since, after issuing a
guest-sync-delimited, clients can safely discard all stale data read
from the channel until the 0xFF is found.

11d0f1255b qemu-ga: add guest-suspend-disk
As the command name implies, this command suspends the guest to disk.

The suspend operation is implemented by two functions: bios_supports_mode()
and guest_suspend(). Both functions are generic enough to be used by
other suspend modes (introduced by next commits).

Both functions will try to use the scripts provided by the pm-utils
package if it's available. If it's not available, a manual method,
which consists of directly writing to '/sys/power/state', will be used.

To reap terminated children, a new signal handler is installed in the
parent to catch SIGCHLD signals and a non-blocking call to waitpid()
is done to collect their exit statuses. The statuses, however, are
discarded.

The approach used to query the guest for suspend support deserves some
explanation. It's implemented by bios_supports_mode() and shown below:

  qemu-ga
     |
 create pipe
     |
   fork()
     -----------------
     |               |
     |               |
     |             fork()
     |               --------------------------
     |               |                        |
     |               |                        |
     |               |               exec('pm-is-supported')
     |               |
     |              wait()
     |       write exit status to pipe
     |              exit
     |
  read pipe

This might look complex, but the resulting code is quite simple.
The purpose of that approach is to allow qemu-ga to reap its children
(semi-)automatically from its SIGCHLD handler.

Implementing this the obvious way, that's, doing the exec() call from
the first child process, would force us to introduce a more complex way
to reap qemu-ga's children. Like registering PIDs to be reaped and
having a way to wait for them when returning their exit status to
qemu-ga is necessary. The approach explained above avoids that complexity.
