- Avoid vmtoolsd crash in HostInfo.
-
- The guest identification code causes vmtoolsd to crash in certain
- versions of some distros. The crash is caused by recent changes to
- the lsb_release command. Previously, if the command existed, all
- of its options worked. Now, some of the options no longer exist.
-
- Change the code to check for an lsb_release failure whenever it is
- invoked.
-
- Fix for: https://github.com/vmware/open-vm-tools/issues/390

-
- Configurable environment for vmtoolsd.
-
- If a user wants to override(*) an environment variable e.g.
- TMPDIR for vmtoolsd, the only choices for the user are:
- 1. Change system environment variable, that may affect more
- than vmtoolsd
- 2. Change vmtoolsd service startup scripts on Linux.
- Some of these methods, especially #2 gets overwritten by
- upgrades and user is forced to re-apply the change on every
- upgrade of VMTools. Also, #2 is somewhat complex due to
- different type of VMTools installations and differences
- in Linux distros.
-
- We can't override the environment completely from within
- service but we can configure the environment to a large
- extent once vmtoolsd comes up and reads tools.conf.
-
- *=> "override" term here applies to setting, modifying and/or
- unsetting an environment variable.
-
- This is mainly required for system service vmsvc, but
- given that vmusr shares code with vmsvc, we can provide
- this functionality for both.
-
- Updated example tools.conf with the new configuration.

- nicinfo: report real nameservers used when using systemd-resolved
-
- If systemd-resolved is used, report the external DNS server, not the
- locally installed one. This is detected by checking if /etc/resolv.conf
- is a link to /run/systemd/resolve/stub-resolv.conf. In that case,
- /run/systemd/resolve/resolv.conf will hold the actual DNS server. See
- https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd-resolved.service.html

- Remove residual data when the DNS nameserver configuration changes.
-
- If the list of DNS nameservers available should shorten or both IPv4 and
- IPv6 entries are present, residual data can still be available for display.
- This change to nicInfoPosix.c corrects the problem.

- Avoid securing disk device info for ZFS pools (at this time)
-
- ZFS filesystem pools device names can appear as single directory name
- at the root directory. The current logic to locate the
- /sys/class/blocks/<device> PCI structure based on typical device name
- format will fail for ZFS pools. As an immediate fix to the SIGSEGV,
- avoid attempting to locate the PCI info; keep vmtoolsd running.

-
- Suppress a couple of coverity false alarms in FileLoggerOpen().
-
- The stat() system call is used to determine whether to rotate logs.
- There is no danger of time-of-check vs. time-of-use because the rotation
- decision still holds even under the very-unlikely condition that the existing
- log file size changes.
-
- When rotating the logs, the service should not stop when a rename() fails
- on an old file. The process ignores the rename() return code intentionally.
- The error condition cannot be logged because the process is already in the
- log handling context and would either crash or risk a recursion loop
- otherwise. In addition, writing to stdout/stderr is useless, since the
- process is running as a service and the stdout/stderr is reopened on /dev/null.
-
- Therefore, the above two coverity issues are suppressed in the code.
