From: Bin Meng <bin.meng@windriver.com>

At present there are two callers of get_tmp_filename() and they are
inconsistent.

One does:

    /* TODO: extra byte is a hack to ensure MAX_PATH space on Windows. */
    char *tmp_filename = g_malloc0(PATH_MAX + 1);
    ...
    ret = get_tmp_filename(tmp_filename, PATH_MAX + 1);

while the other does:

    s->qcow_filename = g_malloc(PATH_MAX);
    ret = get_tmp_filename(s->qcow_filename, PATH_MAX);

As we can see different 'size' arguments are passed. There are also
platform specific implementations inside the function, and this use
of snprintf is really undesirable.

Refactor this routine by changing its signature to:

    char *get_tmp_filename(void)

and use g_file_open_tmp() for a consistent implementation.

Oh my, what a lovely mess you're messing with!

The function creates a temporary *file*, not just a filename.  Makes
sense, as creating a unique filename is inherently racy.  The contract
is clear enough ("Create a uniquely-named empty temporary file"), but
the function name is actively misleading.

Of course, creating a temporary file for the caller to (re)open is also
racy.  By the time the caller gets around to it, the filename could name
anything.  Return an open file file descriptor is a better idea.  It's
basically g_file_open_tmp().  Could we rework the two users of
get_tmp_filename() accept a file descriptor?

Anyway, code after the patch:

   /*
    * Create a uniquely-named empty temporary file.
    * Return the actual name used upon success, otherwise NULL.
    * The called function is responsible for freeing it.
    */
   char *get_tmp_filename(void)
   {
       g_autofree char *filename = NULL;
       int fd;

       fd = g_file_open_tmp("vl.XXXXXX", &filename, NULL);
       if (fd < 0) {

As Philippe wrote, this throws away possibly useful error information.

           return NULL;
       }
       if (close(fd) != 0) {
           unlink(filename);
           return NULL;
       }
       return g_steal_pointer(&filename);
   }

Other than that, it's an improvement within the limits of a flawed
interface.

I looked at the 2 callers, and it looks like we need to do more than
these 2 callers to teach them to accept a file descriptor. :(

Looks like it requires surgery to bdrv_create() at least.  I'm not
demanding you do that now.
