We currently maintain a whitelist of commands that are safe during
fsfreeze. During fsfreeze, we disable all commands that aren't part of
that whitelist.
guest-sync-delimited meets the criteria for being whitelisted, and is
also required for qemu-ga clients that rely on guest-sync-delimited for
re-syncing the channel after a timeout.

After open(), the file offset is already zero, and neither lockf() nor
ftruncate() change it.

This function sets O_CLOEXEC on the log file fd so that it isn't
leaked to executed processes.

This ensures that O_CLOEXEC is passed to open(), this way the
pid file fd is not leaked to executed processes.

To use the online disk snapshot for online-backup, application-level
consistency of the snapshot image is required. However, currently the
guest agent can provide only filesystem-level consistency, and the
snapshot may contain dirty data, for example, incomplete transactions.
This patch provides the opportunity to quiesce applications before
snapshot is taken.
If --fsfreeze-hook option is specified, the hook is executed with
"freeze" argument before the filesystem is frozen by fsfreeze-freeze
command. As for fsfreeze-thaw command, the hook is executed with "thaw"
argument after the filesystem is thawed.
This patch depends on patchset to improve error reporting by Luiz Capitulino:
