qemu-ga's socket activation support was not obeying the LISTEN_PID
environment variable, which avoids that a process uses a socket-activation
file descriptor meant for its parent.
Mess can for example ensue if a process forks a children before consuming
the socket-activation file descriptor and therefore setting O_CLOEXEC
on it.
Luckily, qemu-nbd also got socket activation code, and its copy does
support LISTEN_PID. Some extra fixups are needed to ensure that the
code can be used for both, but that's what this patch does. The
main change is to replace get_listen_fds's "consume" argument with
the FIRST_SOCKET_ACTIVATION_FD macro from the qemu-nbd code.

AF_UNIX and AF_VSOCK listen sockets can be passed in by systemd on
startup. This allows systemd to manage the listen socket until the
first client connects and between restarts. Advantages of socket
activation are that parallel startup of network services becomes
possible and that unused daemons do not consume memory.
The key to achieving this is the LISTEN_FDS environment variable, which
is a stable ABI as shown here:
https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/InterfacePortabilityAndStabilityChart/
We could link against libsystemd and use sd_listen_fds(3) but it's easy
to implement the tiny LISTEN_FDS ABI so that qemu-ga does not depend on
libsystemd. Some systems may not have systemd installed and wish to
avoid the dependency. Other init systems or socket activation servers
may implement the same ABI without systemd involvement.
Test as follows:
$ cat ~/.config/systemd/user/qga.service

[Debugging turds buried]

The way we get QMP commands registered is high tech:
* qapi-commands.py generates qmp_init_marshal() that does the actual work
* it also generates the magic to register it as a MODULE_INIT_QAPI
function, so it runs when someone calls
module_call_init(MODULE_INIT_QAPI)
* main() calls module_call_init()
QEMU needs to register a few non-qapified commands. Same high tech
works: monitor.c has its own qmp_init_marshal() along with the magic
to make it run in module_call_init(MODULE_INIT_QAPI).
QEMU also needs to unregister commands that are not wanted in this
build's configuration (commit 5032a16). Simple enough:
qmp_unregister_commands_hack(). The difficulty is to make it run
after the generated qmp_init_marshal(). We can't simply run it in
monitor.c's qmp_init_marshal(), because the order in which the
registered functions run is indeterminate. So qmp_init_marshal()
registers qmp_unregister_commands_hack() separately. Since
registering *appends* to the list of registered functions, this will
make it run after all the functions that have been registered already.
I suspect it takes a long and expensive computer science education to
not find this silly.
Dumb it down as follows:
* Drop MODULE_INIT_QAPI entirely
* Give the generated qmp_init_marshal() external linkage.
* Call it instead of module_call_init(MODULE_INIT_QAPI)
* Except in QEMU proper, call new monitor_init_qmp_commands() that in
turn calls the generated qmp_init_marshal(), registers the
additional commands and unregisters the unwanted ones.

-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root /var/run/qga.state

In addition, at least all files created with the "guest-file-open" QMP

otherwise) by utilities invoked by the fsfreeze hook script are affected.
For now mask all file mode bits for "group" and "others" in

Hosts hold on to handles provided by guest-file-open for periods that can
span beyond the life of the qemu-ga process that issued them. Since these
are issued starting from 0 on every restart, we run the risk of issuing
duplicate handles after restarts/reboots.
As a result, users with a stale copy of these handles may end up
reading/writing corrupted data due to their existing handles effectively
being re-assigned to an unexpected file or offset.
We unfortunately do not issue handles as strings, but as integers, so a
solution such as using UUIDs can't be implemented without introducing a
new interface.
As a workaround, we fix this by implementing a persistent key-value store
that will be used to track the value of the last handle that was issued
across restarts/reboots to avoid issuing duplicates.
The store is automatically written to the same directory we currently
set via --statedir to track fsfreeze state, and so should be applicable
for stable releases where this flag is supported.
A follow-up can use this same store for handling fsfreeze state, but
that change is cosmetic and left out for now.
