Since Admin API, qvm-ls takes a long time to complete. Therefore,
Corporate Headquarters commanded that a Enterprise Spinner is to be
implemented and mandated it's use unto us.
We take amusement from its endless gyrations.
Use newly introduced payload_stream= argument to qubesd_call to pass
data directly from some file-like object - without loading it all into
memory.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#853
Add qubesd_call(..., payload_stream=...) argument to allow streaming
payload directly from some file/process stdout. This is mainly (only?)
useful for admin.vm.volume.Import, where disk volume raw data is passed
to the service.
Since migration to Admin API, qvm-ls no longer have list of all VM
properties in advance, so can't really validate fields list. Simply
assume that unknown columns are properties.
Don't terminate qvm-run on any SIGCHLD, check if the process we're
waiting for have finished.
Currently the only situation when it's broken is a test (which starts
additional process, whose SIGCHLD may be caught here), but lets do not
assume that much (starting only one process) about environment.
Make it easy to retrieve DeviceInfo object out of DeviceAssignment
object. The only missing piece of information for that is device class,
so add it. Make it optional, as it can be filled on demand when passing
the object through DeviceCollection (either by listing devices, or
attaching/detaching).
This also makes DeviceCollection._device method not needed anymore.
It is supported only from dom0, but it's still useful to have, to save
on simultaneous vchan connections (only waiting for MSG_DATA_EXIT_CODE).
This is especially important for Windows VMs, as qrexec-agent there have
pretty low limit on simultaneous connections (about 20).
Make qvm-run use it.
Since we use qubes.VMShell service now and send requested command on its
stdin, we need to terminate that shell after requested command -
otherwise the service will not terminate automatically waiting for
further input (next commands).
qubesd_call expect "bytes" type. Additionally serialize false value as
empty string (which is treated by python as false value), because
otherwise would be serialized to (non-empty) string, which is true value
in python.
Do not color qvm-run diagnostic messages, but also avoid ANSI control
sequences in logs. While at it, do not print 'Running ...' message when
--pass-io is used.
Most of them are moved from core-admin repository, even if tool is not
implemented yet. Some are generated using skel-manpage.py script.
This way we have complete man pages list, and sphinx will properly
warn/error about inconsistencies.
