snapshot: qemu: Fix segfault and vanishing snapshots when redefining
When the disk alignment check done while redefining an existing snapshot
failed, the qemu driver attempted to free the existing snapshot. As in
the cleanup path the definition of the snapshot wasn't assigned, the
cleanup code dereferenced a NULL pointer.
This patch changes the behavior on error paths while redefining snapshot
in two ways:
1) On failure, modifications done on the snapshot definition object are
rolled back.
2) The previous definition of the data isn't freed until it's certain it
won't be needed any more.
This change avoids the segfault and additionally the snapshot doesn't
vanish if redefinition fails for some reason.

commit ac2797cf2af2fd0e64c58a48409a8175d24d6f86 attempted to fix a
problem with netlink in newer kernels requiring an extra attribute
with a filter flag set in order to receive an IFLA_VFINFO_LIST from
netlink. Unfortunately, the #ifdef that protected against compiling it
in on systems without the new flag went a bit too far, assuring that
the new code would *never* be compiled, and even if it had, the code
was incorrect.
The first problem was that, while some IFLA_* enum values are also
their existence at compile time, IFLA_EXT_MASK *isn't* #defined, so
checking to see if it's #defined is not a valid method of determining
whether or not to add the attribute. Fortunately, the flag that is
being set (RTEXT_FILTER_VF) *is* #defined, and it is never present if
IFLA_EXT_MASK isn't, so it's sufficient to just check for that flag.
And to top it off, due to the code not actually compiling when I
thought it did, I didn't realize that I'd been given the wrong arglist
to nla_put() - you can't just send a const value to nla_put, you have
to send it a pointer to memory containing what you want to add to the
message, along with the length of that memory.
This time I've actually sent the patch over to the other machine
that's experiencing the problem, applied it to the branch being used
(0.10.2) and verified that it works properly, i.e. it does fix the
problem it's supposed to fix. :-/
The code for doing a block-copy was supposed to track the destination
file in drive->mirror, but was set up to do all mallocs prior to
starting the copy so that OOM wouldn't leave things partially started.
However, the wrong variable was being written; later in the code we
silently did 'disk->mirror = mirror' which was still NULL, and thus
leaking memory and leaving libvirt to think that the mirror job was
never started, which prevented a pivot operation after a copy.
Problem introduced in commit 35c7701c6.
When assigning an SRIOV virtual function to a guest using "intelligent
PCI passthrough" (<interface type='hostdev'>, which sets the MAC
address and vlan tag of the VF before passing its info to qemu),
libvirt first learns the current MAC address and vlan tag by sending
an NLM_F_REQUEST message for the VF's PF (physical function) to the
kernel via a NETLINK_ROUTE socket (see virNetDevLinkDump()); the
response message's IFLA_VFINFO_LIST section is examined to extract the
info for the particular VF being assigned.
This worked fine with kernels up until kernel commit 115c9b81928360d769a76c632bae62d15206a94a (first appearing in upstream
kernel 3.3) which changed the ABI to not return IFLA_VFINFO_LIST in
the response until a newly introduced IFLA_EXT_MASK field was included
in the request, with the (newly introduced, of course) RTEXT_FILTER_VF
flag set.
The justification for this ABI change was that new fields had been
added to the VFINFO, causing NLM_F_REQUEST messages to fail on systems
with large numbers of VFs if the requesting application didn't have a
large enough buffer for all the info. The idea is that most
applications doing an NLM_F_REQUEST don't care about VFINFO anyway, so
eliminating it from the response would lower the requirements on
buffer size. Apparently, the people who pushed this patch made the
mistaken assumption that iproute2 (the "ip" command) was the only
package that used IFLA_VFINFO_LIST, so it wouldn't break anything else
(and they made sure that iproute2 was fixed.
The logic of this "fix" is debatable at best (one could claim that the
proper fix would be for the applications in question to be fixed so
that they properly sized the buffer, which is what libvirt does
(purely by virtue of using libnl), but it is what it is and we have to
deal with it.
In order for <interface type='hostdev'> to work properly on systems
with a kernel 3.3 or later, libvirt needs to add the afore-mentioned
IFLA_EXT_MASK field with RTEXT_FILTER_VF set.
Of course we also need to continue working on systems with older
kernels, so that one bit of code is compiled conditionally. The one
time this could cause problems is if the libvirt binary was built on a
system without IFLA_EXT_MASK which was subsequently updated to a
kernel that *did* have it. That could be solved by manually providing
the values of IFLA_EXT_MASK and RTEXT_FILTER_VF and adding it to the
message anyway, but I'm uncertain what that might actually do on a
system that didn't support the message, so for the time being we'll
just fail in that case (which will very likely never happen anyway).

It turns out that it would be very intrusive to correctly backport the
entire --bind-dynamic option to older dnsmasq versions
(e.g. dnsmasq-2.48 that is used on RHEL6.x and CentOS 6.x), but very
simple to patch those versions to just use SO_BINDTODEVICE on all
their listening sockets (SO_BINDTODEVICE also has the desired effect
of permitting only traffic that was received on the interface(s) where
dnsmasq was set to listen.)
This patch modifies the dnsmasq capabilities detection to detect the
string:
--bind-interfaces with SO_BINDTODEVICE
in the output of "dnsmasq --version", and in that case realize that
using the old --bind-interfaces option is just as safe as
--bind-dynamic (and therefore *not* forbid creation of networks that
use public IP address ranges).
If -bind-dynamic is available, it is still preferred over
--bind-interfaces.
Note that this patch does no harm in upstream, or in any distro's
downstream if it happens to end up there, but builds for distros that
have a new enough dnsmasq to support --bind-dynamic do *NOT* need to
specifically backport this patch; it's only required for distro
releases that have dnsmasq too old to have --bind-dynamic (and those
distros will need to add the SO_BINDTODEVICE patch to dnsmasq,
*including the extra string in the --version output*, as well.
