7fc4e63ec0 qemu-sockets: add Error ** to all functions
This lets me adjust the clients to do proper error propagation first,
thus avoiding temporary regressions in the quality of the error messages.

233aa5c2d1 Fix address handling in inet_nonblocking_connect
getaddrinfo can give us a list of addresses, but we only try to
connect to the first one. If that fails we never proceed to
the next one.  This is common on desktop setups that often have ipv6
configured but not actually working.

To fix this make inet_connect_nonblocking retry connection with a different
address.
callers on inet_nonblocking_connect register a callback function that will
be called when connect opertion completes, in case of failure the fd will have
a negative value

bbdd2ad081 qemu-char: BUGFIX, don't call FD_ISSET with negative fd
tcp_chr_connect(), unlike for example udp_chr_update_read_handler() does
not check if the fd it is using is valid (>= 0) before passing it to
qemu_set_fd_handler2().  If using e.g. a TCP serial port, which is not
initially connected, this can result in -1 being passed to FD_ISSET, which
has undefined behaviour.  On x86 it seems to harmlessly return 0, but on
PowerPC, it causes a fortify buffer overflow error to be thrown.

This patch fixes this by putting an extra test in tcp_chr_connect(), and
also adds an assert qemu_set_fd_handler2() to catch other such errors on
all platforms, rather than just some.

    qemu-char: (Re-)connect for tcp_chr_write() unconnected writing

Has no hope of working because tcp_chr_connect() does not actually connect.

455aa1e08 just fixes the SEGV with server() but the attempt to connect a client
socket is still completely broken.

This patch reverts both.

Commit c3767ed0eb introduced a possible SEGV when
using a socket chardev with server=on because it assumes that all TCP sockets

This patch adds a check to only reconnect when in client mode.

tcp_chr_write() did not deal with writing to an unconnected

not right and would cause false writing. So (re-)connect it

3294ce1893 do not include <libutil.h> needlessly or if it doesn't exist
<libutil.h> and <util.h> on *BSD (some have one, some another)
were #included just for openpty() declaration.  The only file
where this function is actually used is qemu-char.c.

In vl.c and net/tap-bsd.c, none of functions declared in libutil.h
(login logout logwtmp timdomain openpty forkpty uu_lock realhostname
fparseln and a few others depending on version) are used.

Initially the code which is currently in qemu-char.c was in vl.c,
it has been removed into separate file in commit 0e82f34d07
Fri Oct 31 18:44:40 2008, but the #includes were left in vl.c.
So with vl.c, we just remove includes - libutil.h, util.h and
pty.h (which declares only openpty() and forkpty()) from there.

The code in net/tap-bsd.c, which come from net/tap.c, had this

Author: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>

    net: split all the tap code out into net/tap.c

Note this commit not only moved stuff out of net.c to net/tap.c,
but also rewrote large portions of the tap code, and added these
completely unnecessary #includes -- as usual, I question why such
a misleading commit messages are allowed.

Again, no functions defined in libutil.h or util.h on *BSD are
used by neither net/tap.c nor net/tap-bsd.c.  Removing them.

And finally, the only real user for these #includes, qemu-char.c,
which actually uses openpty().  There, the #ifdef logic is wrong.
A GLIBC-based system has <pty.h>, even if it is a variant of *BSD.
So __GLIBC__ should be checked first, and instead of trying to
include <libutil.h> or <util.h>, we include <pty.h>.  If it is not
GLIBC-based, we check for variations between <*util.h> as before.

This patch fixes build of qemu 1.1 on Debian/kFreebsd (well, one
of the two problems): it is a distribution with a FreeBSD kernel,
so it #defines at least __FreeBSD_kernel__, but since it is based
on GLIBC, it has <pty.h>, but current version does not have neither
<util.h> nor <libutil.h>, which the code tries to include 3 times
but uses only once.

8be7e7e4c7 qemu-option: qemu_opts_create(): use error_set()
This commit converts qemu_opts_create() from qerror_report() to
error_set().

Currently, most calls to qemu_opts_create() can't fail, so most
callers don't need any changes.

The two cases where code checks for qemu_opts_create() erros are:

 1. Initialization code in vl.c. All of them print their own
    error messages directly to stderr, no need to pass the Error
    object

 2. The functions opts_parse(), qemu_opts_from_qdict() and
    qemu_chr_parse_compat() make use of the error information and
    they can be called from HMP or QMP. In this case, to allow for
    incremental conversion, we propagate the error up using
    qerror_report_err(), which keeps the QError semantics

1f51470d04 Revert "qemu-char: Print strerror message on failure" and deps
The commit's purpose is laudable:

    The only way for chardev drivers to communicate an error was to
    return a NULL pointer, which resulted in an error message that
    said _that_ something went wrong, but not _why_.

It attempts to achieve it by changing the interface to return 0/-errno
and update qemu_chr_open_opts() to use strerror() to display a more
helpful error message.  Unfortunately, it has serious flaws:

1. Backends "socket" and "udp" return bogus error codes, because
qemu_chr_open_socket() and qemu_chr_open_udp() assume that
unix_listen_opts(), unix_connect_opts(), inet_listen_opts(),
inet_connect_opts() and inet_dgram_opts() fail with errno set
appropriately.  That assumption is wrong, and the commit turns
unspecific error messages into misleading error messages.  For
instance:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx
    inet_connect: host and/or port not specified
    chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: No such file or directory

ENOENT is what happens to be in my errno when the backend returns
-errno.  Let's put ERANGE there just for giggles:

    $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -chardev socket,id=bar,host=xxx -drive if=none,iops=99999999999999999999
    inet_connect: host and/or port not specified
    chardev: opening backend "socket" failed: Numerical result out of range

Worse: when errno happens to be zero, return -errno erroneously
signals success, and qemu_chr_new_from_opts() dies dereferencing
uninitialized chr.  I observe this with "-serial unix:".

2. All qemu_chr_open_opts() knows about the error is an errno error
code.  That's simply not enough for a decent message.  For instance,
when inet_dgram() can't resolve the parameter host, which errno code
should it use?  What if it can't resolve parameter localaddr?

Clue: many backends already report errors in their open methods.
Let's revert the flawed commit along with its dependencies, and fix up
the silent error paths instead.

This reverts commit 6e1db57b2a.

	console.c
	hw/baum.c

1366108981 Introduce a 'client_add' monitor command accepting an open FD
Allow client connections for VNC and socket based character
devices to be passed in over the monitor using SCM_RIGHTS.

One intended usage scenario is to start QEMU with VNC on a
UNIX domain socket. An unprivileged user which cannot access
the UNIX domain socket, can then connect to QEMU's VNC server
by passing an open FD to libvirt, which passes it onto QEMU.

 { "execute": "get_fd", "arguments": { "fdname": "myclient" } }
 { "return": {} }
 { "execute": "add_client", "arguments": { "protocol": "vnc",
                                           "fdname": "myclient",
                                           "skipauth": true } }
 { "return": {} }

In this case 'protocol' can be 'vnc' or 'spice', or the name
of a character device (eg from -chardev id=XXXX)

The 'skipauth' parameter can be used to skip any configured
VNC authentication scheme, which is useful if the mgmt layer
talking to the monitor has already authenticated the client
in another way.

* monitor.c: Implement 'client_add' command
* qemu-char.c, qemu-char.h: Add 'qemu_char_add_client' method

pointer, which resulted in an error message that said _that_ something went
wrong, but not _why_.

This patch changes the interface to return 0/-errno and updates
qemu_chr_open_opts to use strerror to display a more helpful error message.

9bf0960a9a Fix compilation warning due to missing header for sigaction (followup)
This patch removes all references to signal.h when qemu-common.h is included
as they become redundant.

("char: Prevent multiple devices opening same chardev"):

-nodefaults -nographic -chardev stdio,id=stdio,mux=on,signal=off \
 -mon stdio -device virtio-serial-pci \
 -device virtconsole,chardev=stdio -device isa-serial,chardev=stdio

fails with:

qemu-system-x86_64: -device isa-serial,chardev=stdio: Property 'isa-serial.chardev' can't take value 'stdio', it's in use

7c32c4feeb chardev: Allow frontends to notify backends of guest open / close
Some frontends know when the guest has opened the "channel" and is actively
listening to it, for example virtio-serial. This patch adds 2 new qemu-chardev
functions which can be used by frontends to signal guest open / close, and
allows interested backends to listen to this.
