This is useful to select default DispVM template for VMs started
directly by the user. This makes sense as long as AdminVM == GUIVM.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2974
Add public Admin API call to create Disposable VM that would be
automatically destroyed after shutdown. Do not keep this functionality
for qrexec-policy tool only.
Also, use admin.vm.Start there, instead of internal.vm.Start and
admin.vm.Kill instead of internal.vm.CleanupDispVM (this is enough,
because DispVM now have auto_cleanup property).
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2974
Add auto_cleanup property, which remove DispVM after its shutdown
- this is to unify DispVM handling - less places needing special
handling after DispVM shutdown.
New DispVM inherit all settings from respective AppVM. Move this from
classmethod `DispVM.from_appvm()`, to DispVM constructor. This unify
creating new DispVM with any other VM class.
Notable exception are attached devices - because only one running VM can
have a device attached, this would prevent second DispVM started from
the same AppVM. If one need DispVM with some device attached, one can
create DispVM with auto_cleanup=False. Such DispVM will still not have
persistent storage (as any other DispVM).
Tests included.

Threis no more ntpd service used - new approach do not conflict with
ntpd. Because of this, new feature is named 'service.clocksync', and
should be _enabled_ in ClockVM ('ntpd' was disabled there).
QubesOS/qubes-issues#1230
When an API call is interrupted, the relevant coroutine is cancelled -
which means it may throw CancelledError. At the same time, cancelled
call have related socket already closed (and transport set to None). But
QubesDaemonProtocol.respond try to close the transport again, which
fails. Fix handling this case.
Get a VM statistics once. If previous measurements are provided,
calculate difference too. This is backend part of upcoming
admin.vm.Stats service.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#853
Remove some more references to objects holding (possibly indirectly)
reference to libvirt connection:
- local variables in tearDown function
- running Admin API calls (especially admin.Events)
- vmm._libvirt_conn directly, in case some reference to Qubes()
is still there
- any instance attribute that is an object from 'qubes' python package
(instead of just those descending from BaseVM)
- do not create new Qubes() instance for removing VMs - if we already
have one in self.app
Then trigger garbage collector to really cleanup those objects (and
close relevant file descriptors). It's important do do this before
closing event loop, because some of descructors may try to use it (for
example remove registered handlers).
When tearDownClass is executed, event loop is already closed. Since no
test really need it right now, drop support for test class-wide VMs and
convert those methods back to instance methods.
Also put coroutines (vm.remove_from_disk, vm.kill) onto event loop.
Only qubesd should load qubes.xml directly. Put a TODO comments for now
in place of slow VM reporting, invent some better mechanism later.
This loading of qubes.xml caused deadlocks, because qmemnan kept open
file descriptor (in locked state).
Since it is no longer child of QubesVM, constructor do not take 'qid'
and 'name' arguments.
Also:
- remove other dropped properties tests (netvm, storage related)
- make the test working in non-dom0
- improve TestPool mock - init_volume now return appropriate mock type,
instead of TestPool
- improve patching base directory (/var/lib/qubes) - it is stored in
more than one place...
- fix inheritance in TC_01_ThinPool class
- fix expected LVM volume names ('vm-' prefix)
- fix cleanup after FilePool tests - remove temporary qubes.xml
- asyncio usage
- better reporting in integ.storage - include error message in the
report, not only as a comment in code
Don't set 'source' volume in various places (each VM class constructor
etc), do it as part of volume initialization. And when it needs to be
re-calculated, call storage.init_volume again.
This code was duplicated, and as usual in such a case, those copies
were different - one have set 'size', the other one not.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
Since we have app.default_pool* properties, create appropriately named
pool and let those properties choose the right pool. This also means we
don't need to specify pool name in default volume config anymore
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
Some events are internal for a sole purpose of getting some data from
extension. Since listeners of admin.Events cannot return anything, there
is no sense in sending those events there.
The old format have many issues and is discouraged by tar developers. In
this case the most important one is header with possible non-ASCII
characters, which will result in UnicodeDecodeError (tarfile module
require header parts in utf-8).
PAX format is much cleaner, as it use standard mechanism for extended
headers.
Since we have LVM by default, it is possible to backup VMs while they
are running. For now it will include its state from before startup, but
later we may implement some other logic (a snapshot of running VM).
Do not assume static list of volume (although it is true for now), and
also use proper API for getting volume size, instead of assuming it's a
normal file.
Changed the inheritance hierarchy:
1. Renamed `SystemTestsMixin` to `SystemTestCase`
2. `SystemTestCase` is a child of `QubesTestCase`
3. All classes extending the prior `SystemTestsMixin` now just extend `object`
* tests-fixes-1:
api: extract function to make pylint happy
tests/vm: simplify AppVM storage test
storage: do not use deepcopy on volume configs
api: cleanup already started servers when some later failed
tests: fix block devices tests when running on real system
tests: fix some FD leaks
Use minimal TestPool(), instead of Mock().
This allow effectively compare Volume instances (init_volume with the
same parameters return equal Volume instance).
Specify empty 'source' field, so it gets filled with appropriate
template's images. Then also fix recursive 'source' handling - DispVM
root volume should point at TemplateVM's root volume as a source, not a
AppVM's one - which is also only a snapshot.
FixesQubesOS/qubes-issues#2896
This code is unused now. Theoretically this is_outdated implementation
should be moved to FileVolume, but since we don't have VM reference
there, it isn't possible to read appropriate xenstore entry. As we're
phasing out file pool, simply ignore it for now.
QubesOS/qubes-issues#2256
LinuxKernel pool support only read-only volumes, so save_on_stop=True
doesn't make sense. Make it more explicit - raise NotImplementedError
otherwise.
Also, migrate old configs where snap_on_start=True, but no source was
given.
