* qubesos/pr/190:
Missed one test, adding default-user in assert for test test_621_qdb_vm_with_network in TC_90
replaced underscore by dash and update test accordingly
Updated assert content for test_620_qdb_standalone in TC_90_QubesVM
Added the default_user property from the Qube to the qubesdb so it is available when starting X. This is the 1st part of a fix for issue https://github.com/QubesOS/qubes-issues/issues/2372
This adds the file-reflink storage driver. It is never selected
automatically for pool creation, especially not the creation of
'varlibqubes' (though it can be used if set up manually).
The code is quite small:
reflink.py lvm.py file.py + block-snapshot
sloccount 334 lines 447 (134%) 570 (171%)
Background: btrfs and XFS (but not yet ZFS) support instant copies of
individual files through the 'FICLONE' ioctl behind 'cp --reflink'.
Which file-reflink uses to snapshot VM image files without an extra
device-mapper layer. All the snapshots are essentially freestanding;
there's no functional origin vs. snapshot distinction.
In contrast to 'file'-on-btrfs, file-reflink inherently avoids
CoW-on-CoW. Which is a bigger issue now on R4.0, where even AppVMs'
private volumes are CoW. (And turning off the lower, filesystem-level
CoW for 'file'-on-btrfs images would turn off data checksums too, i.e.
protection against bit rot.)
Also in contrast to 'file', all storage features are supported,
including
- any number of revisions_to_keep
- volume.revert()
- volume.is_outdated
- online fstrim/discard
Example tree of a file-reflink pool - *-dirty.img are connected to Xen:
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/volatile-dirty.img
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/root-dirty.img
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/root.img
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/private-dirty.img
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/private.img
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/private.img@2018-01-02T03:04:05Z
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/private.img@2018-01-02T04:05:06Z
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/foo/private.img@2018-01-02T05:06:07Z
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/bar/...
- /var/lib/testpool/appvms/...
- /var/lib/testpool/template-vms/fedora-26/...
- /var/lib/testpool/template-vms/...
It looks similar to a 'file' pool tree, and in fact file-reflink is
drop-in compatible:
$ qvm-shutdown --all --wait
$ systemctl stop qubesd
$ sed 's/ driver="file"/ driver="file-reflink"/g' -i.bak /var/lib/qubes/qubes.xml
$ systemctl start qubesd
$ sudo rm -f /path/to/pool/*/*/*-cow.img*
If the user tries to create a fresh file-reflink pool on a filesystem
that doesn't support reflinks, qvm-pool will abort and mention the
'setup_check=no' option. Which can be passed to force a fallback on
regular sparse copies, with of course lots of time/space overhead. The
same fallback code is also used when initially cloning a VM from a
foreign pool, or from another file-reflink pool on a different
mountpoint.
'journalctl -fu qubesd' will show all file-reflink copy/rename/remove
operations on VM creation/startup/shutdown/etc.
* qubesos/pr/187:
Don't fail create/clone if /var/lib/qubes/TYPE/NAME/ exists
Make 'qvm-volume revert' really use the latest revision
Fix wrong mocks of Volume.revisions
* qubesos/pr/185:
vm: remove doc for non-existing event `monitor-layout-change`
vm: include tag/feature name in event name
events: add support for wildcard event handlers
* qubesos/pr/180:
vm/qubesvm: default to PVH unless PCI devices are assigned
vm/qubesvm: expose 'start_time' property over Admin API
vm/qubesvm: revert backup_timestamp to '%s' format
doc: link qvm-device man page for qvm-block, qvm-pci, qvm-usb
Human readable format `str(datetime.datetime)` is a nightmare for Admin
API level communication. Especially setting the property in a format
that it was read was not supported, and handling such format in
untrusted input handling code is a bad idea. Revert to a simple intiger
format.
Rename events:
- domain-feature-set -> domain-feature-set:feature
- domain-feature-delete -> domain-feature-delete:feature
- domain-tag-add -> domain-tag-add:tag
- domain-tag-delete -> domain-tag-delete:tag
Make it consistent with property-* events. It makes more sense to
include tag/feature name in event name, so handler can watch a single
tag/feature - which is the most common case. Otherwise, most handlers
would begin with `if feature == '...'` anyway, wasting time on most
events.
In cases where multiple features/tags should be handled by a single
handler, it is now possible to register a handler with wildcard, for
example `domain-feature-set:*`.
Support registering handlers for more flexible wildcard events: not only
'*', but also 'something*'. This allows to register handlers for
'property-set:*' and such.
Load integration tests from outside of core-admin repository, through
entry points.
Create wrapper for VM object to keep very basic compatibility with tests
written for core2. This means if test use only basic functionality
(vm.start(), vm.run()), the same test will work for both core2 and
core3. This is especially important for app-* repositories, where the
same version serves multiple Qubes branches.
This also hides asyncio usage from tests writer.
See QubesOS/qubes-issues#1800 for details on original feature.
Test base functions of dom0 module (creating VM, setting property) and
configuring system inside of VM (through DispVM). The later is done for
each available template (the process use salt installed in that
template, not copied from dom0).
QubesOS/qubes-issues#3316
When dom0 do not provide the kernel, it should also not set kernel
command line in libvirt config. Otherwise qemu in stubdom fails to start
because it get -append option without -kernel, which is illegal
configuration.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3339
Add property for IPv6 address ('ip6'). Build default value similarly to
IPv4 - common prefix + QID or Disp ID (for DispVMs).
This all is disabled unless 'ipv6' feature is enabled. It is inherited
from netvm (not template).
Even when enabled, VM may decide to not use it - or simply not support
it.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#718
Allow using default feature value from netvm, not template. This makes
sense for network-related features like using tor, supporting ipv6 etc.
Similarly to check_with_template, expose it also on Admin API.
Having both default_netvm and default_fw_netvm cause a lot of confusion,
because it isn't clear for the user which one is used when. Additionally
changing provides_network property may also change netvm property, which
may be unintended effect. This as a whole make it hard to:
- cover all netvm-changing actions with policy for Admin API
- cover all netvm-changing events (for example to apply the change to
the running VM, or to check for netvm loops)
As suggested by @qubesuser, kill the default_fw_netvm property and
simplify the logic around it.
Since we're past rc1, implement also migration logic. And add tests for
said migration.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3247
* qubesos/pr/166:
create "lvm" pool using rootfs thin pool instead of hardcoding qubes_dom0-pool00
change default pool code to be fast
cache PropertyHolder.property_list and use O(1) property name lookups
remove unused netid code
cache isinstance(default, collections.Callable)
don't access netvm if it's None in visible_gateway/netmask
There were many cases were the check was missing:
- changing default_netvm
- resetting netvm to default value
- loading already broken qubes.xml
Since it was possible to create broken qubes.xml using legal calls, do
not reject loading such file, instead break the loop(s) by setting netvm
to None when loop is detected. This will be also useful if still not all
places are covered...
Place the check in default_netvm setter. Skip it during qubes.xml loading
(when events_enabled=False), but still keep it in setter, to _validate_ the
value before any property-* event got fired.
