- Setting 0660 as permissions of /dev/vboxusb directory itself was preventing
access to this directory by any non-root user, even if member of vboxusers.
This results in VBox UI failing to enable USB passthrough.
Fix issue by removing all the workarounds for /dev/vboxusb/* as they should
no longer be required.
I have verified that with this USB passhtrough works on today's TW (real machine), as well as Leap 15.5 (on a VM) and today's Leap 15.6 beta (unfortunately, I couldn't get a nested VM to work on 15.6 at all -- but with this fix the UI can enumerate USB devices at least).
Without this fix, VBox always shows "VirtualBox is not currently allowed to access USB devices. You can change this by adding your user to vboxusers [....]", and the UI cannot enumerate USB devices at all. (forwarded request 1163957 from javispedro)

- File "fixes_for_kernel_6.3.patch" is updated for more API changes
File "fix_7.0.6_locking_problems.patch" is added. Fixes boo#1209529.
Larry Len Rainey and I have worked on this bug for some time. It only
happened on systems with large numbers of processors and many virtual
machines. We suspected a locking problem, but the thought of auditing
the entire code was daunting until it was discovered that there was no
problem if the host ran VB 6.1.40. It did not matter what version the
guests were running. That essentially eliminated every code part except
for vboxdrv.ko. That made the audit tractable. There were two files and
a total of 8 places where the locking was suspect. When those were
changed, the lockups while using 7.0.6 host code were no longer observed.
The lockups were infrequent, thus it is impossible to say that we have
fixed everything, but the frequency is clearly diminished.
spec-cleaner used to remove extra blank line is spec file.

Larry,
no idea, what these white space changes are about, but found them in your
spec as well, so I guess, some run-away spec-cleaner is in effect.. :-(
This is the correct fix now, and the reason for not detecting it befor is
burried in the Virtualization project config:
%if "%_repository" == "openSUSE_Factory"
# rpmlint results (in the rare case they have any meaning) are only relevant for Factory
%else
Substitute: clamav bash
Substitute: clamav-database bash
Substitute: post-build-checks bash
Substitute: post-build-checks-malwarescan bash
Substitute: rpmlint-Factory bash
Substitute: rpmlint-Factory-strict bash
Substitute: rpmlint-backports bash
Substitute: rpmlint-backports-data bash
Substitute: rpmlint-mini bash
%endif
Of course, there's no openSUSE_Factory target!
Best,
Pete

- Merge host kmp and guest kmp into a single kmp. The existence of two different kernel module
packages is believed to be the reason that it is possible for a new kernel not to include
the necessary kernel modules (boo#1142955).
Files "virtualbox-host-kmp-files" and "virtualbox-guest-kmp-files" are deleted.
File "virtualbox-kmp-files" is added.

File "virtualbox-kmp-preamble" is added.
File "fix_conflict_between_host_and_guest.patch" is added.
- Script vboxdrv.sh, which is called from the systemd service file, incorrectly called a routine
that does not exist when the kernel modules were not available. This call is changed to /sbin/vboxconfig
that will build the modules if the requisite packages are available. If that is not true, the
systemctl status vboxdrv will list the command needed to load the missing packages. This change
address part of boo#1142995.

Hi Larry,
here we go..
this version of VB is tested successfully with TW and 15.0, builds
with 42.3, 15.0, 15.0 with Kernel:stable, 15.1, TW, and behaves
properly autostart-wise.
So it's good to go from my POV.
Cheers,
Pete

Hi Larry,
here's is my current state of VB affairs. It's more a RFC, but it
contains everything to build that biest for the most prominent
distributions.
The new patch virtualbox-fix-ui-background-color.patch is an attempt
to deuglify the UI with certain color schemes.
Again, RFC stuff for you to look at.
Thanks,
Pete

- Make changes suggested in bsc#1060072
The specific changes are:
(1) Remove the test in vboxdrv.sh as the script tests for the wrong file. This is safe because
if the package is not installed, the script will not be there.
(2) Move VBoxDbg.so to package virtualbox-qt. With this change, packages libQt5Core, libQt5Gui
and libQt5Widgets are no longer needed with package virtualbox. As a result, a text-only
server no longer needs to load QT to support headless virtual machines.
- Update "fixes_for_4.14.patch" to handle additional API changes in kernel 4.14.
These include the following:
removal of gamma_set and gamma_get from struct drm_fb_helper_funcs
removal of set_busid from struct drm_driver
replacement of drm_pci_init() with pci_register_driver()
replacement of drm_pci_exit() with pci_unregister_driver()

Hi Larry,
I finally put some effort in fixing the VM autostart mechanics,
that are terminally broken in the current package (due to the way,
systemd interacts with Sys-V init scripts, stop operations aren't
executed most of the time, because it lost track of the state...).
With these changes, I'm able to reliably start/stop all VMs on
hosts ranging from 13.2 to 42.2. I'm confident, this will improve
for all systemd based systems, i.o.w all those systems we care about..
It resembles pretty much the same scheme, vboxdrv is using already.
Give it a try.
- reorganize vbox autostart, coping with systemd:
- add /usr/lib/virtualbox/vboxes.sh (based on /etc/init.d/vboxes)
- add /usr/lib/systemd/system/vboxes.service
- remove /etc/init.d/vboxes

USB passthru opens a security hole, yet it is so valuable that many users want the feature, thus it is our default.
Previously, a user needed to edit a udev rule to disable passthru. The bad part was that an update of VB changed the
rule back to allow passthru without any notification. These changes modify the popup to allow the user to accept or decline
passthru. If the user declines, then the root password is requested and the udev rule is modified. As these modifications will be
lost with the next VB update, the inode of the udev rule is kept. If the user has previously declined and the inode has changed,
the popup will show the next time VB is started. File "fix_usb_rules.sh" is added.

* Add VBoxVNC as a proper external pack rather than just make the so available (bnc #1037033). Thanks to Michal Nowak for most of this effort.
One hack was required to work around a bug in "VBoxManage extpack install" whereby the --accept-license option failed to work.
* Improve startup of VirtualBox through use of systemd service files:
a. Beginning with Oracle version 5.0.8, the command used to build the kernel modules outside of the RPM packaging
code changed; however, the openSUSE version did not implement the new method. That new code is now implemented.
b. In Tumbleweed, the SysV init scripts to systemd service files stopped working. Part of the new code also checks
to see if the kernel modules are loaded. If not, new script files are called to include the necessary packages
and build the necessary modules.
c. The hooks are in place to remove the sysv init files and do the complete conversion to systemd. This step will
be done at a later time.
* New files are "vboxconfig.sh", "vboxguestconfig.sh", "vboxdrv.service", and "vboxadd-service.service".
* New sub-packages virtualbox-guest-source and virtualbox-vnc are produced.
* Some typos in virtualbox.spec are fixed.
- Add libelf-devel to build. Fixes bnc #1037511.
Modified the startup files to build the kernel modules if they are missing. Files "vboxconfig.sh" and "vboxguestconfig" added.

These should be converted to the service files native to systemd. This issue has been forced
as a recent update to Tumbleweed broke the startup of VB for both TW hosts and guests. This
change starts the conversion to native systemd files. The original scripts are still used; however,
service files are used to start and stop the VB components. In a later change, all action will
be accomplished using systemd service files.

Hi Larry,
thanks for the positive response.
Sure, let your fix settle before taking the next.
Here's a small change on top, that avoids a chkstat build verification issue.
- adjust file attributes on SUID helpers to avoid chkstat issues
- remove obsolete libgsoap-devel (again)
- remove /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-vboxdrv.rules
- it is overruled from vboxdrv init script anyway
- vboxdrv generates a /etc/udev/rules.d/60-vboxdrv.rules file
on _every_ start, note that fact in /etc/default/virtualbox
and describe a strategy to control this behaviour
- relocate VBoxCreateUSBNode.sh to /usr/lib/virtualbox
this is, where vboxdrv, resp. the generated 60-vboxdrv.rules
file is expecting it
