Andrew Cooper 6ef4fa1e7f tools: (Actually) drop libsystemd as a dependency
When reinstating some of systemd.m4 between v1 and v2, I reintroduced a little
too much.  While {c,o}xenstored are indeed no longer linked against
libsystemd, ./configure still looks for it.

Drop this too.

Andrew Cooper ae26101f6b tools: Drop libsystemd as a dependency
There are no more users, and we want to disuade people from introducing new
users just for sd_notify() and friends.  Drop the dependency.

We still want the overall --with{,out}-systemd to gate the generation of the
service/unit/mount/etc files.

Rerun autogen.sh, and mark the dependency as removed in the build containers.

Char.lowercase got removed in OCaml 5.0 (it has been deprecated since 2014),
and doesn't build any more.

Char.lowercase_ascii has existed since OCaml 4.03, so that is the new

However, OCaml 4.05 is the oldest new-enough version found in common distros,
so pick this as a baseline.

Juergen Gross c9a899f7f4 tools: add configure option for disabling pygrub
Add a "--disable-pygrub" option for being able to disable the build
and installation of pygrub.

There are two main reasons to do so:

- A main reason to use pygrub is to allow a PV guest to choose its
  bitness (32- or 64-bit). Pygrub allows that by looking into the boot
  image and to start the guest in the correct mode depending on the
  kernel selected. With 32-bit PV guests being deprecated and the
  possibility to even build a hypervisor without 32-bit PV support,
  this use case is gone for at least some configurations.

- Pygrub is running in dom0 with root privileges. As it is operating
  on guest controlled data (the boot image) and taking decisions based
  on this data, there is a higher security risk. Not being possible
  to use pygrub is thus a step towards a reduction of attack surface.

Default is still to build and install pygrub.

XENSTORED_ROOTDIR is basically unused already, there is just a single

and a .gdbinit file setting it.

Remove the .gdbinit file, as it is not known having been used since

Fix that be rearranging the dependencies:

- build rombios by default if either ipxe or qemu traditional are

Jan Beulich 8169f82049 libxenguest: support zstd compressed kernels
This follows the logic used for other decompression methods utilizing an
external library, albeit here we can't ignore the 32-bit size field
appended to the compressed image - its presence causes decompression to
fail. Leverage the field instead to allocate the output buffer in one
go, i.e. without incrementally realloc()ing.

As far as configure.ac goes, I'm pretty sure there is a better (more
"standard") way of using PKG_CHECK_MODULES(). The construct also gets
put next to the other decompression library checks, albeit I think they
all ought to be x86-specific (e.g. placed in the existing case block a
few lines down).

Note that, where possible, instead of #ifdef-ing xen/*.h inclusions,
they get removed.

We should update them periodically.  Debian buster has been Debian

where a new feature was added.  However, that commit contains a lot of
extraneous noise in configure compared to its parent.

Compared to 83c845033dc8bb3a35ae245effb7832b6823174a~, this commit
restores those extraneous changes, leaving precisely the correct
changes.  So one way of looking at the changes we are making now, is
that we are undoing accidental changes to the autoconf output.

I used Debian's autoconf 2.69-11 on amd64.

Marek Marczykowski-Górecki 83c845033d libxl: use vchan for QMP access with Linux stubdomain
Access to QMP of QEMU in Linux stubdomain is possible over vchan
connection. Handle the actual vchan connection in a separate process
(vchan-socket-proxy). This simplified integration with QMP (already
quite complex), but also allows preliminary filtering of (potentially
malicious) QMP input.
Since only one client can be connected to vchan server at the same time
and it is not enforced by the libxenvchan itself, additional client-side
locking is needed. It is implicitly implemented by vchan-socket-proxy,
as it handle only one connection at a time. Note that qemu supports only
one simultaneous client on a control socket anyway (but in UNIX socket
case, it enforce it server-side), so it doesn't add any extra
limitation.

libxl qmp client code already has locking to handle concurrent access
attempts to the same qemu qmp interface.

Signed-off-by: Marek Marczykowski-Górecki <marmarek@invisiblethingslab.com>

Squash in changes of regenerated autotools files.

Kill the vchan-socket-proxy so we don't leak the daemonized processes.
libxl__stubdomain_is_linux_running() works against the guest_domid, but
the xenstore path is beneath the stubdomain.  This leads to the use of
libxl_is_stubdom in addition to libxl__stubdomain_is_linux_running() so
that the stubdomain calls kill for the qmp-proxy.

Also call libxl__qmp_cleanup() to remove the unix sockets used by
vchan-socket-proxy.  vchan-socket-proxy only creates qmp-libxl-$domid,
and libxl__qmp_cleanup removes that as well as qmp-libxenstat-$domid.
However, it tolerates ENOENT, and a stray qmp-libxenstat-$domid should
not exist.

Main reason, newer version of QEMU doesn't support python 2.x anymore.
Second main reason, python2 is EOL.

Juergen Gross 5852ca4852 build: fix tools/configure in case only python3 exists
Calling ./configure with python3 being there but no python,
tools/configure will fail. Fix that by defaulting to python and
falling back to python3 or python2.

While at it fix the use of non portable "type -p" by replacing it by
AC_PATH_PROG().

Ian Jackson bad237ded7 tools/configure: Honour XEN_COMPILE_ARCH and _TARGET_ for shim
The pvshim can only be built 64-bit because the hypervisor is only
64-bit nowadays.  The hypervisor build supports XEN_COMPILE_ARCH and
XEN_TARGET_ARCH which override the information from uname.  The pvshim
build runs out of the tools/ directory but calls the hypervisor build
system.

If one runs in a Linux 32-bit userland with a 64-bit kernel, one used
to be able to set XEN_COMPILE_ARCH.  But nowadays this does not work.
configure sees the target cpu as 64-bit and tries to build pvshim.
The build prints
  echo "*** Xen x86/32 target no longer supported!"
and doesn't build anything.  Then the subsequent Makefiles try to
install the non-built pieces.

Fix this anomaly by causing configure to honour the Xen hypervisor way
of setting the target architecture.

In principle this user behaviour is not handled quite right, because
configure will still see 64-bit and so all the autoconf-based
architecture testing will see 64-bit rather than 32-bit x86.  But the
tools are in fact generally quite portable: this particular location
in configure{.ac,} is the only place in tools/ where 64-bit x86 is
treated differently from 32-bit x86, so the fix is sufficient and
correct for this use case.

It remains the case that XEN_COMPILE_ARCH or XEN_TARGET_ARCH to a
non-x86 architecture, when configure thinks things are x86, or vice
versa, will not work right.

(This is a bugfix to 8845155c83
  pvshim: make PV shim build selectable from configure
which inadvertantly deleted the logic to only build the shim for
XEN_TARGET_ARCH != x86_32.)

I have rerun autogen.sh, so this patch contains the fix to configure
as well as the source fix to configure.ac.

Ian Jackson 9caed751db tools/configure: Allow specifying python to be found from path
./configure takes a PYTHON=... argument.  You can use this to specify
the python interpreter.  However, for no good reason, it expects an
absolute path.

Fix this.  The new logic is:
 * if not set, default to `python'
 * if not absolute, look it up with type -p
 * split into directory and executable name

The results in config/Tools.mk (which contains @PYTHON@ and
@PYTHONPATH@) are identical for both
  ./configure
  ./configure PYTHON=/usr/bin/python
so I assert this has no functional change except that now you can say
  ./configure PYTHON=python

In particular you can now say
  ./configure PYTHON=python2
  ./configure PYTHON=python3

The latter is useful if you want python3 (which should probably be the
default, but does not work right now).  The former is useful if you
want python2 but your distro has foolishly made "python" refer to
python3.
