[libvirt] [PATCH v3] storage: Check for invalid storage mode before opening

Cole Robinson crobinso at redhat.com
Mon May 24 21:36:16 UTC 2010


If a directory pool contains pipes or sockets, a pool start can fail or hang:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=589577

We already try to avoid these special files, but only attempt after
opening the path, which is where the problems lie. Unify volume opening
into helper functions, which use the proper open() flags to avoid error,
followed by fstat to validate storage mode.

Previously, virStorageBackendUpdateVolTargetInfoFD attempted to enforce the
storage mode check, but allowed callers to detect this case and silently
continue. In practice, only the FS backend was using this feature, the rest
were treating unknown mode as an error condition. Unfortunately the InfoFD
function wasn't raising an error message here, so error reporting was
busted.

This patch adds 2 functions: virStorageBackendVolOpen, and
virStorageBackendVolOpenModeSkip. The latter retains the original opt out
semantics, the former now throws an explicit error.

This patch maintains the previous volume mode checks: allowing specific
modes for specific pool types requires a bit of surgery, since VolOpen
is called through several different helper functions.

v2: Use ATTRIBUTE_NONNULL. Drop stat check, just open with
    O_NONBLOCK|O_NOCTTY.

v3: Move mode check logic back to VolOpen. Use 2 VolOpen functions with
    different error semantics to improve error reporting.
