10f5bff622 util: Split out exec_dir from os_find_datadir
With this change, main() calls qemu_init_exec_dir and uses argv[0] to
init exec_dir. The saved value can be retrieved with
qemu_get_exec_dir later. It will be reused by module loading.

e6b636779b Add -f FMT / --format FMT arg to qemu-nbd
Currently the qemu-nbd program will auto-detect the format of
any disk it is given. This behaviour is known to be insecure.
For example, if qemu-nbd initially exposes a 'raw' file to an
unprivileged app, and that app runs

   'qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/etc/shadow /dev/nbd0'

then the next time the app is started, the qemu-nbd will now
detect it as a 'qcow2' file and expose /etc/shadow to the
unprivileged app.

The only way to avoid this is to explicitly tell qemu-nbd what
disk format to use on the command line, completely disabling
auto-detection. This patch adds a '-f' / '--format' arg for
this purpose, mirroring what is already available via qemu-img
and qemu commands.

  qemu-nbd --format raw -p 9000 evil.img

will now always use raw, regardless of what format 'evil.img'
looks like it contains

9faf31b68f do not chdir(/) in qemu-nbd before opening all files
When qemu-nbd becomes a daemon it calls daemon(3) with
nochdir=0, so daemon(3) changes current directory to /.
But at this time, qemu-nbd did not open any user-specified
files yet, so by changing current directory, all non-absolute
paths becomes wrong.  The solution is to pass nochdir=1 to
daemon(3) function, and to chdir("/") after all init has
been performed, before entering the main loop, -- just like
a good daemon should do.

This patch is applicable for -stable.

a517e88baa qemu-nbd: move client to a thread
This avoids that qemu-nbd uses both forking and threads, which do

qemu-nbd is already Unix only, and there is no qemu_thread_join,
so for now use pthreads.

Since the parent and child no longer have separate file descriptors,
we can open the NBD device before daemonizing, instead of checking
with access(2) and restricting the open to the client only.

f97742d0d3 Darwin: Fix compilation warning regarding the deprecated daemon() function
Changes since v1: create a wrapper function named qemu_daemon() in oslib-posix.c
instead of putting the OS specific workaround in qemu-nbd.c directly.

On OSX >= 10.5, daemon() is deprecated, resulting in the following warning:
----8<----
qemu-nbd.c: In function ‘main’:
qemu-nbd.c:371: warning: ‘daemon’ is deprecated (declared at /usr/include/stdlib.h:289)
----8<----

The following trick, used in mDNSResponder, takes care of this warning:
http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/mDNSResponder/mDNSResponder-258.18/mDNSPosix/PosixDaemon.c

On OSX, it temporarily renames the daemon() function before including stdlib.h
and declares it manually as an extern function. This way, the compiler does not
see the declaration from stdlib.h and thus does not display the warning.

9f7965c7e9 Expand cache= option and use write-through caching by default
This patch changes the cache= option to accept none, writeback, or writethough
to control the host page cache behavior.  By default, writethrough caching is
now used which internally is implemented by using O_DSYNC to open the disk
images.  When using -snapshot, writeback is used by default since data integrity
it not at all an issue.

cache=none has the same behavior as cache=off previously.  The later syntax is
still supported by now deprecated.  I also cleaned up the O_DIRECT
implementation to avoid many of the #ifdefs.
