Return meaningful value for kernels_dir if VM has no 'kernel' volume.
Right now it's mostly useful for tests, but could be also used for new
VM classes which doesn't have modules.img, but still use dom0-provided
kernel.
First of all, do not try to call those services in VMs not having qrexec
installed - for example Windows VMs without qubes tools.
Then, even if service call fails for any other reason, only log it but
do not prevent other services from being called. A single uncooperative
VM should generally be able only to hurt itself, not break other VMs
during suspend.

Since we have more reliable domain-shutdown event delivery (it si
guaranteed to be delivered before subsequent domain start, even if
libvirt fails to report it), it's better to move detach_network call to
domain-shutdown handler. This way, frontend domain will see immediately
that the backend is gone. Technically it already know that, but at least
Linux do not propagate that anywhere, keeping the interface up,
seemingly operational, leading to various timeouts.
Additionally, by avoiding attach_network call _just_ after
detach_network call, it avoids various race conditions (like calling
cleanup scripts after new device got already connected).
While libvirt itself still doesn't cleanup devices when the backend
domain is gone, this will emulate it within qubesd.

Pool setup/destroy may be a time consuming operation, allow them to be
asynchronous. Fortunately add_pool and remove_pool are used only through
Admin API, so the change does not require modification of other
components.
Boolean properties require specific setter to properly handle literal
"True" and "False" values. Previously it required all bool properties to
include 'setter=qubes.property.bool' in addition to 'type=bool'.
This fixes loading some boolean properties from qubes.xml. Specifically
at least include_in_backups on DispVM class lacked setter, which
resulted in property being reset to True automatically on qubesd
restart.

If default-kernelopts-pci.txt is present, it will override default
built-in kernelopts for the VMs with PCI device assigned.
Similarly if default-kernelopts-nopci.txt is present, it will override
default kernelopts for VMs without PCI devices.
For template-based VMs, kernelopts of the template takes precedence over
default-kernelopts-nopci.txt but not default-kernelopts-pci.txt.

If a specific DVM template is used for given DispVM, make new DispVMs
called from it use the same DVM template (unless explicitly overridden).
This prevent various isolation bypass cases, like using a chain of
DispVMs to access network.
Look for the first updateable template up in the template chain, instead
of going just one level up. Especially this applies to
DispVM -> AppVM -> TemplateVM case.
If DispVM reports available updates, 'updates-available'
flag should be set on relevant TemplateVM, not AppVM (*-dvm).
Include test for the new case.

Instead of checking if domain is still running/paused, try to kill it
anyway and ignore appropriate exception. Otherwise domain could die
before the check and killing.
some-vm-root is a valid VM name, and in that case it's volume can be
named some-vm-root-private. Do not let it confuse revision listing,
check for unexpected '-' in volume revision number.
The proper solution would be to use different separator, that is not
allowed in VM names. But that would require migration code that is
undesired in the middle of stable release life cycle.

The correction is simple: Apply the same case change to the units

The new property is meant for management stack (Salt) to set which DVM
template should be used to maintain given VM. Since the DispVM based on
it will be given ultimate control over target VM (qubes.VMShell
service), it should be trusted. The one pointed to by default_dispvm
not necessary is one.
The property defaults to the value from the template (if any), and then
to a global management_dispvm property. By default it is set to None.

Migrate meminfo-writer=False service setting to maxmem=0 as a method to
disable dynamic memory management. Remove the service from vm.features
dict in the process.
Additionally, translate any attempt to set the service.meminfo-writer
feature to either setting maxmem=0 or resetting it to the default (which
is memory balancing enabled if supported by given domain). This is to at
least partially not break existing tools using service.meminfo-writer as
a way to control dynamic memory management. This code does _not_ support
reading service.meminfo-writer feature state to get the current state of
dynamic memory management, as it would require synchronizing with all
the factors affecting its value. One of main reasons for migrating to
maxmem=0 approach is to avoid the need of such synchronization.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#4480
Use maxmem=0 for disabling dynamic memory balance, instead of cryptic
service.meminfo-writer feature. Under the hood, meminfo-writer service
is also set based on maxmem property (directly in qubesdb, not
vm.features dict).
Having this as a property (not "feature"), allow to have sensible
handling of default value. Specifically, disable it automatically if
otherwise it would crash a VM. This is the case for:
- domain with PCI devices (PoD is not supported by Xen then)
- domain without balloon driver and/or meminfo-writer service
The check for the latter is heuristic (assume presence of 'qrexec' also
can indicate balloon driver support), but it is true for currently
supported systems.
This also allows more reliable control of libvirt config: do not set
memory != maxmem, unless qmemman is enabled.
memory != maxmem only makes sense if qmemman for given domain is
enabled. Besides wasting some domain resources for extra page tables
etc, for HVM domains this is harmful, because maxmem-memory difference
is made of Popupate-on-Demand pool, which - when depleted - will kill
the domain. This means domain without balloon driver will die as soon
as will try to use more than initial memory - but without balloon driver
it sees maxmem memory and doesn't know about the lower limit.

First boot of whonix-ws based VM take extended period of time, because

Cleanup VMs in template reverse topological order, not network one.
Network can be set to None to break dependency, but template can't. For
netvm to be changed, kill VMs first (kill doesn't check network
dependency), so netvm change will not trigger side effects (runtime
change, which could fail).
This fixes cleanup for tests creating custom templates - previously
order was undefined and if template was tried removed before its child
VMs, it fails. All the relevant files were removed later anyway, but it
lead to python objects leaks.
Cleaning up after domain shutdown (domain-stopped and domain-shutdown
events) relies on libvirt events which may be unreliable in some cases
(events may be processed with some delay, of if libvirt was restarted in
the meantime, may not happen at all). So, instead of ensuring only
proper ordering between shutdown cleanup and next startup, also trigger
the cleanup when we know for sure domain isn't running:
- at vm.kill() - after libvirt confirms domain was destroyed
- at vm.shutdown(wait=True) - after successful shutdown
- at vm.remove_from_disk() - after ensuring it isn't running but just
before actually removing it
This fixes various race conditions:
- qvm-kill && qvm-remove: remove could happen before shutdown cleanup
was done and storage driver would be confused about that
- qvm-shutdown --wait && qvm-clone: clone could happen before new content was
commited to the original volume, making the copy of previous VM state
(and probably more)
Previously it wasn't such a big issue on default configuration, because
LVM driver was fully synchronous, effectively blocking the whole qubesd
for the time the cleanup happened.
To avoid code duplication, factor out _ensure_shutdown_handled function
calling actual cleanup (and possibly canceling one called with libvirt
event). Note that now, "Duplicated stopped event from libvirt received!"
warning may happen in normal circumstances, not only because of some
bug.
It is very important that post-shutdown cleanup happen when domain is
not running. To ensure that, take startup_lock and under it 1) ensure
its halted and only then 2) execute the cleanup. This isn't necessary
when removing it from disk, because its already removed from the
collection at that time, which also avoids other calls to it (see also
"vm/dispvm: fix DispVM cleanup" commit).
Actually, taking the startup_lock in remove_from_disk function would
cause a deadlock in DispVM auto cleanup code:
- vm.kill (or other trigger for the cleanup)
- vm.startup_lock acquire <====
- vm._ensure_shutdown_handled
- domain-shutdown event
- vm._auto_cleanup (in DispVM class)
- vm.remove_from_disk
- cannot take vm.startup_lock again
First unregister the domain from collection, and only then call
remove_from_disk(). Removing it from collection prevent further calls
being made to it. Or if anything else keep a reference to it (for
example as a netvm), then abort the operation.
Additionally this makes it unnecessary to take startup lock when
cleaning it up in tests.
vm.shutdown(wait=True) waited indefinitely for the shutdown, which makes
useless without some boilerplate handling the timeout. Since the timeout
may depend on the operating system inside, add a per-VM property for it,
with value inheritance from template and then from global
default_shutdown_timeout property.
When timeout is reached, the method raises exception - whether to kill
it or not is left to the caller.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#1696
LVM operations can take significant amount of time. This is especially
visible when stopping a VM (`vm.storage.stop()`) - in that time the
whole qubesd freeze for about 2 seconds.
Fix this by making all the ThinVolume methods a coroutines (where
supported). Each public coroutine is also wrapped with locking on
volume._lock to avoid concurrency-related problems.
This all also require changing internal helper functions to
coroutines. There are two functions that still needs to be called from
non-coroutine call sites:
- init_cache/reset_cache (initial cache fill, ThinPool.setup())
- qubes_lvm (ThinVolume.export()
So, those two functions need to live in two variants. Extract its common
code to separate functions to reduce code duplications.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#4283
Both vm.create_on_disk() and vm.start() are coroutines. Tests in this
class didn't run them, so basically didn't test anything.
Wrap couroutine calls with self.loop.run_until_complete().
Additionally, don't fail if LVM pool is named differently.
In that case, the test is rather sily, as it probably use the same pool
for source and destination (operation already tested elsewhere). But it
isn't a reason for failing the test.
On some storage pools this operation can also be time consuming - for
example require creating temporary volume, and volume.create() already
can be a coroutine.
This is also requirement for making common code used by start()/create()
etc be a coroutine, otherwise neither of them can be and will block
other operations.

Make sure events are sent to specific window found with xdotool search,
not the one having the focus. In case of Whonix, it can be first
connection wizard or whonixcheck report.
Searching based on class is used in many tests, searching by class, not
only by name in wait_for_window will allow to reduce code duplication.
While at it, improve it additionally:
- avoid active waiting for window and use `xdotool search --sync` instead
- return found window id
- add wait_for_window_coro() for use where coroutine is needed
- when waiting for window to disappear, check window id once and wait
for that particular window to disappear (avoid xdotool race
conditions on window enumeration)
Besides reducing code duplication, this also move various xdotool
imperfections handling into one place.
Allow removing VMs based on multiple prefixes at once. Removing them
separately doesn't handle all the dependencies (default_netvm, netvm)
correctly. This is needed for backup compatibility tests, where VMs are
created with `test-` prefix and `disp-tests-`. Additionally backup code
will create `disp-no-netvm`, which also may need to be removed.
If QUBES_TEST_TEMPLATES or QUBES_TEST_LOAD_ALL is set, create testcases
on modules import, instead of waiting until `load_tests` is called.
The `QUBES_TEST_TEMPLATES` doesn't require `qubes.xml` access, so it
should be safe to do regardless of the environment. The
`QUBES_TEST_LOAD_ALL` force loading tests (and reading `qubes.xml`)
regardless.
This is useful for test runners not supporting load_tests protocol. Or
with limited support - for example both default `unittest` runner and
`nose2` can either use load_tests protocol _or_ select individual tests.
Setting any of those variable allow to run a single test with those
runners.
With this feature used together load_tests protocol, tests could be
registered twice. Avoid this by not listing already defined test classes
in create_testcases_for_templates (according to load_tests protocol,
those should already be registered).
Allow easily list templates to be tested, without enumerating all the
test classes. This is especially useful with nose2 runner which can't
use load tests protocol _and_ select subset of tests.
If any object is leaked, QubesTestCase.cleanup_gc() raises an exception,
which have leaked objects list referenced in its traceback. This happens
after cleanup_traceback(), so isn't cleaned, causing cleanup_gc() fail
for all the further tests in the same test run.
Avoid this, by dropping list just before checking if any object is
leaked.
When a VM (or its template) does not explicitly set a qrexec_timeout,
fall back to a global default_qrexec_timeout (with default value 60),
instead of hardcoding the fallback value to 60.
This makes it easy to set a higher timeout for the whole system, which
helps users who habitually launch applications from several (not yet
started) VMs at the same time. 60 seconds can be too short for that.
qvm-sync-clock no longer fetches time from the network, by design.
So, lets not break clockvm's time and check only if everything else
correctly synchronize with it.
It isn't enough to wait for window to disappear, the service may still
be running. And if it is, test cleanup logic will complain about FD
leak.
To avoid deadlock on some test failure, do it with a timeout.
volume.path and volume.export() refer to the same thing in lvm_thin and
'file', but not in file-reflink (where volume.path is the -dirty.img,
which doesn't exist if the volume is not started).
Use the file-reflink storage driver if /var/lib/qubes is on a filesystem
that supports reflinks, e.g. when the btrfs layout was selected in
Anaconda. If it doesn't support reflinks (or if detection fails, e.g. in
an unprivileged test environment), use 'file' as before.
_wait_and_reraise() is similar to asyncio.gather(), but it preserves the
current behavior of waiting for all futures and only _then_ reraising
the first exception (if there is any) in line.
Also switch Storage.create() and Storage.clone() to _wait_and_reraise().
Previously, they called asyncio.wait() and implicitly swallowed all
exceptions.
With that syntax, the default timestamp would have been from the time of
the function's definition (not invocation). But all callers are passing
an explicit timestamp anyway.
Convert create(), verify(), remove(), start(), stop(), revert(),
resize(), and import_volume() into coroutine methods, via a decorator
that runs them in the event loop's thread-based default executor.
This reduces UI hangs by unblocking the event loop, and can e.g. speed
up VM starts by starting multiple volumes in parallel.
Instead of raising a NotImplementedError, just return self like 'file'
and lvm_thin. This is needed when Storage.clone() is modified in another
commit* to no longer swallow exceptions.
* "storage: factor out _wait_and_reraise(); fix clone/create"
Import volume data to a new _path_import (instead of _path_dirty) before
committing to _path_clean. In case the computer crashes while an import
operation is running, the partially written file should not be attached
to Xen on the next volume startup.
Use <name>-import.img as the filename like 'file' does, to be compatible
with qubes.tests.api_admin/TC_00_VMs/test_510_vm_volume_import.
When the AT_REPLACE flag for linkat() finally lands in the Linux kernel,
_replace_file() can be modified to use unnamed (O_TMPFILE) tempfiles.
Until then, make sure stale tempfiles from previous crashes can't hang
around for too long.
It's sort of useful to be able to revert a volume that has only ever
been started once to its empty state. And the lvm_thin driver allows it
too, so why not.
System tests are fragile for any object leaks, especially those holding
open files. Instead of wrapping all tests with try/finally removing
those local variables (as done in qubes.tests.integ.backup for example),
apply generic solution: clean all traceback objects from local
variables. Those aren't used to generate text report by either test
runner (qubes.tests.run and nose2). If one wants to break into debugger
and inspect tracebacks interactively, needs to comment out call to
cleanup_traceback.

Since (for LVM at least) path is dynamic now, add information about it
to volume info. This is not very useful outside of dom0, but in dom0 it
can be very useful for various scripts.
This will disclose current volume revision id, but it is already
possible to deduce it from snapshots list.
Do not write directly to main volume, instead create temporary volume
and only commit it to the main one when operation is finished. This
solve multiple problems:
- import operation can be aborted, without data loss
- importing new data over existing volume will not leave traces of
previous content - especially when importing smaller volume to bigger
one
- import operation can be reverted - it create separate revision,
similar to start/stop
- easier to prevent qube from starting during import operation
- template still can be used when importing new version

First rename volume to backup revision, regardless of revisions_to_keep,
then rename -snap to current volume. And only then remove backup
revision (if exceed revisions_to_keep). This way even if commit
operation is interrupted, there is still a volume with the data.
This requires also adjusting few functions to actually fallback to most
recent backup revision if the current volume isn't found - create
_vid_current property for this purpose.
Also, use -snap volume for clone operation and commit it normally later.
This makes it safer to interrupt or even revert.

Before waiting for remaining tasks on event loop (including libvirt
events), make sure all destroyed objects are really destroyed. This is
especially important for libvirt connections, which gets cleaned up only
when appropriate destructor (__del__) register a cleanup callback and it
gets called by the loop.
Use VM's actual IP address as a gateway for other VMs, instead of
hardcoded link-local address. This is important for sys-net generated
ICMP diagnostics packets - those must _not_ have link-local source
address, otherwise wouldn't be properly forwarded back to the right VM.

storage/reflink: let _remove_empty_dir() ignore ENOTEMPTY
storage/reflink: show size in refused volume shrink message
storage/reflink: fsync() after resizing existing file
Since Volume.is_outdated() is a method, not a property, add a function
for handling serialization. And at the same time, fix None serialization
(applicable to 'source' property).
QubesOS/qubes-issues#3256
After lot of testing it does not work properly. Could do something more
sophisticated but since calling save() is safe and probably lightweigth it is
not worth probably.
Some handlers may want to call into other VMs (or even the one asking),
but vm.run() functions are coroutines, so needs to be called from
another coroutine. Allow for that.
Also fix typo in documentation.
Some kernels (like pvgrub2) may not provide modules.img and it isn't an
error. Don't break VM startup in that case, skip that device instead.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3563
"Cannot execute qrexec-daemon!" error is very misleading for a startup
timeout error, make it clearer. This rely on qrexec-daemon using
distinct exit code for timeout error, but even without that, include its
stderr in the error message.

backup.py: add vmN/empty file if no other files to backup
Allow include=None to be passed to admin.backup.Info
Add include_in_backups property for AdminVM
Use !auto_cleanup as DispVM include_in_backups default
Lots of code expects the VM to be Halted after receiving one of these
events, but it could also be Dying or Crashed. Get rid of the Dying case
at least, by waiting until the VM has transitioned out of it.
Fixes e.g. the following DispVM cleanup bug:
$ qvm-create -C DispVM --prop auto_cleanup=True -l red dispvm
$ qvm-start dispvm
$ qvm-shutdown --wait dispvm # this won't remove dispvm
$ qvm-start dispvm
$ qvm-kill dispvm # but this will

reflink: style fix
storage: typo fix
lvm_thin: _remove_revisions() on revisions_to_keep==0
lvm_thin: don't purge one revision too few
lvm_thin: really remove revision
lvm_thin: fill in volume's revisions_to_keep from pool
Using '$' is easy to misuse in shell scripts, shell commands etc. After
all this years, lets abandon this dangerous character and move to
something safer: '@'. The choice was made after reviewing specifications
of various shells on different operating systems and this is the
character that have no special meaning in none of them.
To preserve compatibility, automatically translate '$' to '@' when
loading policy files.
If revisions_to_keep is 0, it may nevertheless have been > 0 before, so
it makes sense to call _remove_revisions() and hold back none (not all)
of the revisions in this case.
* 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.
When some expiring rules are present, it is necessary to reload firewall
when those rules expire. Previously systemd timer was used to trigger
this action, but since we have own daemon now, it isn't necessary
anymore - use this daemon for that.
Additionally automatically removing expired rules was completely broken
in R4.0.

Even when volume is not persistent (like TemplateBasedVM:root), it
should be resizeable. Just the new size, similarly to the volume
content, will be reverted after qube shutdown.
Additionally, when VM is running, volume resize should affect _only_ its
temporary snapshot. This way resize can be properly reverted together
with actual volume changes (which include resize2fs call).
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3519
- catch both QubesException and libvirtError - do not kill starting VM
just because an error while connecting _other_ VMs to it
- try to detach network first (and do not abort on error) - if
libvirt/libxl will manage to cleanup stale interface this way, the
attach operation below may succeed.

1. Make sure VMs are started after dom0 actual memory usage is reported
to qmemman, otherwise dom0 will hold 4GB, even if just a little over 1GB
is needed at that time.
2. Request only vm.memory MB from qmemman, instead of vm.maxmem. While
HVM with PCI devices indeed do not support populate-on-demand, this is
already handled in libvirt XML.
The later may often cause VM startup fail on systems with 8GB of memory,
because maxmem is 4GB there and with dom0 keeping the other 4GB (see
point 1) there is not enough memory to start any sych VM.

admin.vm.volume.ListSnapshots returned volume revisions in undefined
order, but 'qvm-volume revert' assumes the list to be in chronological
order. Make that assumption true.
clear_outdated_error_markers crashes if memory stats are not retrieved
yet. In practice it crashes at the very first call during daemon
startup, making the whole qmemman unusable.

qmemman: clear "not responding" flags when VM require more memory
QubesOS/qubes-issues#3265
- use capital letters in acronyms in documentation to match upstream
documentation.
- refuse to start a PVH with without kernel set - provide meaningful
error message
* 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

qmemman: request VMs balloon down with 16MB safety margin
qmemman: clear "not responding" flags when VM require more memory
qmemman: slightly improve logging
qmemman: reformat code, especially comments
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.
It looks like Linux balloon driver do not always precisely respect
requested target memory, but perform some rounding. Also, in some cases
(HVM domains), VM do not see all the memory that Xen have assigned to it
- there are some additional Xen pools for internal usage.
Include 16MB safety margin in memory requests to account for those two
things. This will avoid setting "no_response" flag for most of VMs.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#3265
Clear slow_memset_react/no_progress flags when VM request more memory
than it have assigned. If there is some available, it may be given to
such VM, solving the original problem (not reacting to balloon down
request). In any case, qmemman algorithm should not try to take away
memory from under-provisioned VM.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#3265
Add logging more info about each domain state:
- last requested target
- no_progress and slow_memset_react flags
This makes it unnecessary to log separately when those flags are cleared.
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.
When creating a new VM of type DispVM without specifying any template
(e.g. "qvm-create --class DispVM --label red foo"), use default_dispvm.
Otherwise it would fail saying "Got empty response from qubesd."
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
There may be cases when VM providing the network to other VMs is started
later - for example VM restart. While this is rare case (and currently
broken because of QubesOS/qubes-issues#1426), do not assume it will
always be the case.
