[Xen-devel] [PATCH v4 3/4] libxl: call hotplug scripts from libxl for vbd



This is a rather big change, that adds the necessary machinery to
perform hotplug script calling from libxl for Linux. This patch
launches the necessary scripts to attach and detach PHY and TAP
backend types (Qemu doesn't use hotplug scripts).

Here's a list of the major changes introduced:

 * libxl_device_disk_add makes use of the new event library and takes
   the optional parameter libxl_asyncop_how, to choose how the
   operation has to be issued (sync or async).

 * Disk addition waits for backend to switch to state 2
   (XenbusInitWait) and then launches the hotplug script.

 * Created and internal function (libxl__device_disk_add), that can be
   called within an already running AO, and that will plug the
   requested disk and execute the callback afterward.
   libxl_device_disk_add is a user of this newly created function.

 * libxl__devices_destroy no longer calls libxl__device_destroy, and
   instead calls libxl__initiate_device_remove, so we can disconnect
   the device and execute the necessary hotplug scripts instead of
   just deleting the backend entries. So libxl__devices_destroy now
   uses the event library, and so does libxl_domain_destroy, that has
   been converted to an AO operation function

 * The internal API for hotplug scripts has been added, which
   consists of one function; libxl__device_hotplug that takes the
   device and a struct with the necessary info about the action to
   execute.

 * Linux hotplug scripts are called by setting the necessary env
   variables to emulate udev rules, so there's no need to change them
   (although a rework to pass this as parameters insted of env
   variables would be suitable, so both NetBSD and Linux hotplug
   scripts take the same parameters).

 * Added a check in xen-hotplug-common.sh, so scripts are only
   executed from udev when using xend. xl adds a disable_udev=1 to
   xenstore libxl local directory and with the modification of the
   udev rules every call from udev gets UDEV_CALL passed, that points
   to disable_udev. If UDEV_CALL is passed and points to a value, the
   hotplug script is not executed.

Changes since v3 (changes based on IanJ review):

 * Store disable_udev in libxl/disable_udev, which now is not device
   dependant, but backend domain dependant.

 * Added a global callback to device addition/destruction, that is now
   called when we have finished all the oprtations and handles the
   call to ao_complete if no other operations are pending.

 * Unified both device creation/destruction flows, so now all of them
   use the same data structure and callbacks.

 * Used the event interface in a proper way, and merged disk addition
   with the new async flow of the domain creation.

 * Make use of the new functions LOG, LOGE, GCNEW_ARRAY...

 * Passed NULL as ao_how in Python bindings.

Changes since v1:

 * Replaced the hotplug snippet that prevents execution from udev
   when necessary, and now we set the env var from udev rules instead
   of libxl.

 * Replaced the libxl_device_disk_add "if" with a "switch".

 * Removed libxl__xs_path_cleanup (replaced with xs_rm).

 * Fixed several spelling mistakes.
