This way we don't need separate admin.vm.Clone call, which is tricky to
handler properly with policy.
A VM may not have access to all the properties and other metadata, so
add ignore_errors argument, for best-effort approach (copy what is
possible). In any case, failure of cloning VM data fails the whole
operation.
When operation fails, VM is removed.
While at it, allow to specify alternative VM class - this allows
morphing one VM into another (for example AppVM -> StandaloneVM).
Adjust qvm-clone tool and tests accordingly.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2622
Enable 'qrexec' VM feature to wait for qrexec initialization - it is
required to call qubes.PostInstall service. If VM start fails, assume
there is no qrexec and drop that feature.
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.
Empty parameter value is encoded as b'parameter\0\0', so we can't simply
read the data until b'\0\0', because it isn't necessary event end.
Instead, read event parts separately, according to specification.
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.
