When the guest agent does not answer a root password or SSH key change
in time, the command was already sent: the agent runs it when it
answers again. Measured: with the agent frozen the change failed with
"guest agent command timed out", and after it resumed, root's hash was
the one sent. The error now adds "The change may still be made when the
agent answers again." A failed synchronization sends no command and
gets no note.
The VM page read the guest's addresses with interfaceAddresses() from
the agent, and the OS details with agent commands without a timeout.
A connected agent that hangs (a frozen guest) kept the page from
loading at all and held a worker: seen still loading after 120 s.
Both now go through the 10 s guest agent command the root password and
SSH key use. The addresses come from guest-network-get-interfaces, in
the form the page's address code already reads; an agent that does not
answer leaves the ARP address. With the agent frozen the page loads in
about 10 s and the OS details answer with the agent's error (400) in
5 s, instead of a server error.
The Access tab's Root Password and SSH Keys worked only on a shut-off
VM, through gstfsd on the compute. A running VM whose QEMU guest agent
is connected now gets them through the agent: guest-set-user-password
with the SHA-512 crypt hash, and guest-ssh-add-authorized-keys adding
the key to root's keys. A shut-off VM still goes through gstfsd; any
other VM is refused with "Shut the VM down, or start its QEMU guest
agent, and try again", and the buttons are disabled.
Each is one agent command with a 10 s timeout. libvirt's own calls for
them (setUserPassword, authorizedSSHKeysSet) wait for a hung agent
indefinitely, holding a worker and the VM's lock, and the domain's
agent timeout would change every other agent call of the VM too.
The agent's or libvirt's error is shown as is through error_text, so
users who do not see the hosts get no connection details, and the
attempt is logged as failed. The README names the SELinux boolean a
RHEL-family guest needs before its agent may add SSH keys.
131 test modules sat next to the code they test; instances alone had
51 of them beside views.py and utils.py. They move into a
tests/ package per app, and the JavaScript checks into
webvirtcloud/tests/js. Each non-empty tests.py becomes tests/test_views.py;
the empty generated stubs are removed.
Imports of the app's own modules become absolute, paths built from
__file__ go one level up, the live helper is instances.tests.livetest,
and coverage omits */tests/*. The suite discovers the same 960 tests as
before.
