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.

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.

Currently we rely on fsfreeze/thaw commands disabling/enabling logging
then having other commands check whether logging is disabled to avoid
executing if they aren't safe for running while a filesystem is frozen.
Instead, have an explicit whitelist of fsfreeze-safe commands, and
consolidate logging and command enablement/disablement into a pair
of helper functions: ga_set_frozen()/ga_unset_frozen()

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.

When linux-specific commands (including guest-fsfreeze-*) were consolidated
under defined(__linux__), we forgot to account for the case where

this.

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.

Implement guest-suspend-disk RPC for Windows. Functionally this should be
equivalent to the posix implementation.
Signed-off-by: Gal Hammer <ghammer@redhat.com>
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.

Implement guest-shutdown RPC for Windows. Functionally this should be
equivalent to the posix implementation.
Original patch by Gal Hammer <ghammer@redhat.com>
This allows qemu-ga to function as a Windows service:
- to install the service (will auto-start on boot):
qemu-ga --service install
- to start the service:
net start qemu-ga
- to stop the service:
net stop qemu-ga
- to uninstall service:
qemu-ga --service uninstall
Original patch by Gal Hammer <ghammer@redhat.com>
This adds a win32 channel implementation that makes qemu-ga functional
on Windows using virtio-serial (unix-listen/isa-serial not currently
implemented). Unlike with the posix implementation, we do not use
GIOChannel for the following reasons:
- glib calls stat() on an fd to check whether S_IFCHR is set, which is
the case for virtio-serial on win32. Because of that, a one-time
check to determine whether the channel is readable is done by making
a call to PeekConsoleInput(), which reports the underlying handle is
not a valid console handle, and thus we can never read from the
channel.
- if one goes as far as to "trick" glib into thinking it is a normal
file descripter, the buffering is done in such a way that data
written to the output stream will subsequently result in that same
data being read back as if it were input, causing an error loop.
furthermore, a forced flush of the channel only moves the data into a
secondary buffer managed by glib, so there's no way to prevent output
from getting read back as input.
The implementation here ties into the glib main loop by implementing a
custom GSource that continually submits asynchronous/overlapped I/O to
fill an GAChannel-managed read buffer, and tells glib to poll the
corresponding event handle for a completion whenever there is no
data/RPC in the read buffer to notify the main application about.
Various stubs and #ifdefs to compile for Windows using mingw
cross-build. Still has 1 linker error due to a dependency on the
forthcoming win32 versions of the GAChannel/transport class.
Many of the current RPC implementations are very much POSIX-specific
and require complete re-writes for Windows. There are however a small
set of core guest agent commands that are common to both, and other
commands such as guest-file-* which *may* be portable. So we introduce
commands.c for the latter, and will rename guest-agent-commands.c to
commands-posix.c in a future commit. Windows implementations will go in
commands-win32.c, eventually.
This is mostly in preparation for the win32 port, which won't use
GIO channels for reasons that will be made clearer later. Here the
GAChannel class is just a loose wrapper around GIOChannel
calls/callbacks, but we also roll in the logic/configuration for
various channel types and managing unix socket connections, which makes
the abstraction much more complete and further aids in the win32 port
since isa-serial/unix-listen will not be supported initially.
There's also a bit of refactoring in the main logic to consolidate the
exit paths so we can do common cleanup for things like pid files, which
weren't always cleaned up previously.
Not that there is blacklisting functionality we can no longer infer
the agent's capabilities via version. This patch extends the current
guest-info RPC to also return a list of dictionaries containing the name
of each supported RPC, along with a boolean indicating whether or not
the command has been disabled by a guest administrator/distro.

This is the actual guest daemon, it listens for requests over a
virtio-serial/isa-serial/unix socket channel and routes them through
to dispatch routines, and writes the results back to the channel in
a manner similar to QMP.
A shorthand invocation:
qemu-ga -d
Is equivalent to:
qemu-ga -m virtio-serial -p /dev/virtio-ports/org.qemu.guest_agent.0 \
-f /var/run/qemu-ga.pid -d
