927d811b28 slirp: Ensure smbd and shared directory exist when enable smb
Users may pass the following parameters to qemu:
    $ qemu-kvm -net nic -net user,smb= ...
    $ qemu-kvm -net nic -net user,smb ...
    $ qemu-kvm -net nic -net user,smb=bad_directory ...

In these cases, qemu started successfully while samba server
failed to start. Users will confuse since samba server
failed silently without any indication of what it did wrong.

To avoid it, we check whether the shared directory exist and
if users have permission to access this directory when QEMU's
"built-in" SMB server is enabled.

b412eb61bf slirp: add 'cmd:' target for guestfwd
When using guestfwd=, Qemu only connects the virtual server's TCP port
to a single chardev. This is useless in most cases, as we usually want
to have more than a single connection from the guest to the outside world.

This patch adds a new cmd: target to guestfwd= that allows for execution
of a command on every TCP connection. This leverages the same code as
the -smb parameter, just that here the command is user defined.

1cb1c5d10b slirp: Enforce host-side user of smb share
Windows 7 (and possibly other versions) cannot connect to the samba
share if the exported host directory is not world-readable. This can be
resolved by forcing the username used for access checks to the one
under which QEMU and smbd are running.

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

    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.

276eda5735 Declare state directory in smb.conf
The smb.conf generated by the userspace networking does not include a state directory
directive. Samba therefore falls back to the default value. Since the user generally
does not have write access to this path, smbd immediately crashes.

The "state directory" option was added in Samba 3.4.0 (commit
http://gitweb.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=commit;h=7b02e05eb64f3ffd7aa1cf027d10a7343c0da757).

This patch adds the missing option.

de305b1387 slirp: don't use "smb ports = 0" option
The "smb ports = 0" option causes recent samba versions to crash. It was
introduced in commit 157777ef3e with log message "Samba 3 support".
However, a value of 0 has never been officially supported by smb and is
also not necessary: if stdin is a socket, smb does not try to listen on
any ports and uses just stdin. This is necessary to support inetd based
operation (otherwise smbd would always fail when called from inetd,
because inetd already listens on the SMB port). Since samba has
supported inetd operation since pre-3.x, it should be safe to rely on
this feature. I have tested it with Samba 3.6.4 -- communication works
fine, and smbd is not listening on any ports.

I suspect the "smb ports = 0" hack may have been introduced when someone
tested the qemu generated samba config from the command line with "smbd
-i" and found it to fail (because then stdin isn't a socket).

a7c36ee492 Add support for net bridge
The most common use of -net tap is to connect a tap device to a bridge.  This
requires the use of a script and running qemu as root in order to allocate a
tap device to pass to the script.

This model is great for portability and flexibility but it's incredibly
difficult to eliminate the need to run qemu as root.  The only really viable
mechanism is to use tunctl to create a tap device, attach it to a bridge as
root, and then hand that tap device to qemu.  The problem with this mechanism
is that it requires administrator intervention whenever a user wants to create
a guest.

By essentially writing a helper that implements the most common qemu-ifup
script that can be safely given cap_net_admin, we can dramatically simplify
things for non-privileged users.  We still support existing -net tap options
as a mechanism for advanced users and backwards compatibility.

Currently, this is very Linux centric but there's really no reason why it
couldn't be extended for other Unixes.

A typical invocation would be similar to one of the following:

  qemu linux.img -net bridge -net nic,model=virtio

  qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper"
                 -net nic,model=virtio

  qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,id=hn0
                 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1

  qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper",id=hn0
                 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1

The default bridge that we attach to is br0.  The thinking is that a distro
could preconfigure such an interface to allow out-of-the-box bridged networking.

Alternatively, if a user wants to use a different bridge, a typical invocation
would be simliar to one of the following:

  qemu linux.img -net bridge,br=qemubr0 -net nic,model=virtio

  qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0"
                 -net nic,model=virtio

  qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,br=qemubr0,id=hn0
                 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1

  qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0",id=hn0
                 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1

885660bd48 network scripts: don't block SIGCHLD before forking
This patch fixes a bug where child processes of launch_script() can
misbehave due to SIGCHLD being blocked. In the case of `sudo`, this
causes a permanent hang.

Previously a SIGCHLD handler was added to reap fork_exec()'d zombie
processes by calling waitpid(-1, ...). This required other
fork()/waitpid() callers to temporarilly block SIGCHILD to avoid
having the final wait status being intercepted by the SIGCHLD
handler:

7c3370d4fe

Since then, the qemu_add_child_watch() interface was added to allow
registration of such processes and reap only from that specific set
of PIDs:

4d54ec7898

As a result, we can now avoid blocking SIGCHLD in launch_script(), so
drop that behavior.

after checking that get_clock and new_timer never occur twice
on the same line.  There were no missed occurrences; however, even
if there had been, they would have been caught by the compiler.

There was exactly one false positive in qemu_run_timers:

     -    current_time = qemu_get_clock (clock);

c3febae62b Fixing tap adapter for win32
This fix allows connection of internal VLAN to the external TAP interface.
If tap_win32_write function always returns 0, the TAP network interface
in QEMU is disabled.

c7eb1f02ed Fixing network over sockets implementation for win32
MSDN includes the following in WSAEALREADY error description for connect()
function: "To preserve backward compatibility, this error is reported as
WSAEINVAL to Winsock applications that link to either Winsock.dll or
Wsock32.dll". So check of this error code was added to allow network
connections through the sockets in Windows.

5430a28fe4 vhost: force vhost off for non-MSI guests
When MSI is off, each interrupt needs to be bounced through the io
thread when it's set/cleared, so vhost-net causes more context switches and
higher CPU utilization than userspace virtio which handles networking in
the same thread.

We'll need to fix this by adding level irq support in kvm irqfd,
for now disable vhost-net in these configurations.

Added a vhostforce flag to force vhost-net back on.

f157ed202e tap: safe sndbuf default
With current sndbuf default value, a blocked
target guest can prevent another guest from
transmitting any packets. While current
sndbuf value (1M) is reported to help some
UDP based workloads, the default should
be safe (0).

3a75e74c76 net/sock: option to specify local address
Add an option to specify the host IP to send multicast packets from,
when using a multicast socket for networking. The option takes an IP
address and sets the IP_MULTICAST_IF socket option, which causes the
packets to use that IP's interface as an egress.

This is useful if the host machine has several interfaces with several
virtual networks across disparate interfaces.

43849424cf tap: clear vhost_net backend on cleanup
Frontends calling tap_get_vhost_net get an invalid pointer after the
peer backend has been deleted. Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> reports
this leading to a crash in ack_features when we remove the vhost-net
bakend of a virtio nic.

The fix is simply to clear the backend pointer.
