2013-09-26Tools: hv: use single send+recv bufferOlaf Hering1-5/+3
send_buffer is used only once during registration. To reduce runtime memory usage reuse the recv_buffer for registration. Also use NLMSG_LENGTH instead of NLMSG_HDRLEN to take alignment into account.

2013-08-12Tools: hv: use full nlmsghdr in netlink_sendOlaf Hering1-10/+5
There is no need to have a nlmsghdr pointer to another temporary buffer. Instead use a full struct nlmsghdr. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: K. Y. Srinivasan <kys@microsoft.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
2013-08-12Tools: hv: correct payload size in netlink_sendOlaf Hering1-1/+1
netlink_send is supposed to send just the cn_msg+hv_kvp_msg via netlink. Currently it sets an incorrect iovec size, as reported by valgrind. In the case of registering with the kernel the allocated buffer is large enough to hold nlmsghdr+cn_msg+hv_kvp_msg, no overrun happens. In the case of responding to the kernel the cn_msg is located in the middle of recv_buffer, after the nlmsghdr. Currently the code in netlink_send adds also the size of nlmsghdr to the payload. But nlmsghdr is a separate iovec. This leads to an (harmless) out-of-bounds access when the kernel processes the iovec. Correct the iovec size of the cn_msg to be just cn_msg + its payload.

2013-08-02Tools: hv: fix send/recv buffer allocationOlaf Hering1-3/+12
hv_kvp_daemon fails to start in current openSuSE 13.1 snapshots because the kvp_send_buffer is too small to hold cn_msg+hv_kvp_msg, the very first sendmsg returns with EFAULT. In addition it fixes the Network info tab in Windows Server 2012R2 in SLES11. Adjust the code in kvp and vss daemon to allocate the needed buffers at runtime. To keep the code simple, the buffer_len includes also the nlmsghdr, although only the recv_buffer needs this extra space. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> Signed-off-by: K. Y.

2013-04-24tools: hv: skip iso9660 mounts in hv_vss_daemonOlaf Hering1-0/+2
fsreeze does not work for iso9660 filesystems. A ENOSUPP may be caught in the freeze case, but the subsequent thaw call would fail and leads to a false error.

2013-03-15Drivers: hv: Add a new driver to support host initiated backupK. Y. Srinivasan1-0/+220
This driver supports host initiated backup of the guest. On Windows guests, the host can generate application consistent backups using the Windows VSS framework. On Linux, we ensure that the backup will be file system consistent. This driver allows the host to initiate a "Freeze" operation on all the mounted file systems in the guest. Once the mounted file systems in the guest are frozen, the host snapshots the guest's file systems. Once this is done, the guest's file systems are "thawed". This driver has a user-level component (daemon) that invokes the appropriate operation on all the mounted file systems in response to the requests from the host. The duration for which the guest is frozen is very short - a few seconds. During this interval, the diff disk is comitted. In this version of the patch I have addressed the feedback from Olaf Herring. Also, some of the connector related issues have been fixed. Signed-off-by: K. Y.
