[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt 3.1.0
by Daniel Veillard 24 Feb '17

24 Feb '17

Hi everybody, as planned I just tagged the RC1 in git and uploded the signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ Seems to work fine in my limited testing, but more testing especially on different platforms and system is needed. https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt/ is all green except for on small test so it looks like in good shape ATM, but please give it a try ! I hope to be able to make RC2 on Tuesday which would allow a final release on Thursday 2nd if everything goes well, thanks in advance, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Red Hat Developers Tools http://developer.redhat.com/ veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] Release of libvirt-3.0.0
by Daniel Veillard 17 Jan '17

17 Jan '17

So I got mixed reports in the last day about the state of the head but one of the big issues seems solved, and I'm not sure keeping the freeze much longer will help, so libvirt-3.0.0 is out. It's tagged in git, signed tarball and rpms are available at thet usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ I also pushed python bindings release too which one can find at ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python/ It includes a fair amount of changes despite the slowdown around the end of year break: * New features - Domain events for metadata content changes The domain events framework has a new event ID that can be used to get notifications when domain metadata content changes. - Event notifications for the secret object The secret object now supports event notifications, covering lifcycle changes and secret value changes. - New localPtr attribute for "ip" element in network XML - qemu: Support QEMU group I/O throttling Add the capability to allow group I/O throttling via a new domain <disk> <iotune> subelement "group_name" to allow sharing I/O throttling quota between multiple drives. - nss: Introduce libvirt_guest New libvirt_guest nss module that translates libvirt guest names into IP addresses. - daemon: Add support for runtime logging settings adjustment Logging-related settings like log outputs and filters can now be adjusted during runtime using the admin interface without the necessity of the daemon's restart. - storage: Add virStorageVolInfoFlags API Add the API to support using the VIR_STORAGE_VOL_GET_PHYSICAL flag in order to return the host physical size in bytes of the image container in the allocation field of the _virStorageVolInfo structure. The --physical flag has been added to the virsh vol-info command to access the data. - libxl: Implement virDomainGetMaxVcpus API - storage: Add overwrite flag checking for logical pool Add support for the OVERWRITE flags for the logical storage backend including checking for existing data on the target volumes when building a new logical pool on target volume(s). - qemu: Add support for guest CPU configuration on s390(x) * Improvements - perf: Add more perf statistics Add support to get the count of branch instructions executed, branch misses, bus cycles, stalled frontend cpu cycles, stalled backend cpu cycles, and ref cpu cycles by applications running on the platform. - conf: Display <physical> for volume xml Add a display of the <physical> size of a disk volume in the output of the volume XML. - qemu: Use virtio-pci by default for aarch64 mach-virt guests virtio-pci provides several advantages over virtio-mmio, such as the ability to hotplug devices and improved performance. While opting in to virtio-pci has been possible for a while, newly-defined guests will now use it automatically. - vbox: remove support for VirtualBox 3.x and older Those old VirtualBox versions have been unsupported by upstream for a long time and the API of 4.0 and newer has diverged enough to require code abstractions to handle differences. Removing support for those old versions drops lots of code from the driver and simplifies the logic to ease implementation of new features going forward. - virsh: pool-info: introduce option --bytes Add option --bytes to virsh pool-info in order ti allow display of units in bytes rather than default of human readable output. - scsi: Add parent wwnn/wwpn or fabric capability for createVport Improve the algorithm searching for the parent scsi_host device for vHBA/NPIV scsi_host creation. Rather than supplying the "parent" by name, it's now possible to define the parent by it's wwnn/wwpn or fabric_wwn in the node device create XML or the storage pool XML. - qemu: aggregate pcie-root-ports onto multiple functions of a slot When pcie-root-ports are added to pcie-root in order to provide a place to connect PCI Express endpoint devices, libvirt now aggregates multiple root ports together onto the same slot (up to 8 per slot) in order to conserve slots. Using this method, it's possible to connect more than 200 endpoint devices to a guest that uses PCIe without requiring setup of any PCIe switches. * Bug fixes - lxc: fix accidental killing of containers during libvirtd restart The libvirt_lxc process was previously not moved into the container scope. As a result, if systemd reloads its config after a container is started, when libvirtd is later restarted it will accidentally kill the containers. - qemu: Correct GetBlockInfo values For an active domain, correct the physical value provided for a raw sparse file backed storage and the allocation value provided for a qcow2 file backed storage that hasn't yet been opened on the domain. - qemu: Make virtio console usable on ppc64 guests The chardev detection code has been improved and can now handle this configuration properly. - qemu: Enable mount namespace To avoid funny races with udev relabelling devices under our hands and to enhance security, libvirt now spawns each qemu process with its own /dev. - storage: Fix implementation of no-overwrite for file system backend Fix file system storage backend implementation of the OVERWRITE flags to be consistent between code and documentation. Add checks to ensure that when building a new file system on a target volume that there is not something already on the disk in a format that libvirt can recognize. - qemu: Create hugepage path on per domain basis Historically, all hugepage enabled domains shared the same path under hugetlbfs. This left libvirt unable to correctly set security labels on it. With this release, however, each domain is put into a separate path which is also correctly labeled. - conf: Reject domains with duplicate drive addresses Reject duplicate drive addresses for disks and hostdevs at domain definition. - libxl: reverse defaults on HVM net device attach Fixes network interface attach for HVM domains when no model is specified. Emulated hotplug isn't yet supported and hence we should default to the general working scenario. - libxl: always enable pae for x86_64 HVM By default pae is disabled in libxl. Without an explicit <pae/> setting in the domain <features> configuration, an x86_64 HVM domain would be get an i686 environment. pae should always be enabled for x86_64 HVM domains. Thanks everybody for your contributions to this release, hopefully that won't be a brown paper bag one !

I'll take a closer look to it today. You can try and see if this is a namespace caused issue. Just disable the namespaces and retry.

As planned, I tagged the RC1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual location: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ This seems to work fine in my limited testing but as usual we need community feedback on it and especially testing on different systems and architectures, so please give it a try ! If everything works fine then I will push rc2 on Friday and hopefully 3.0.0 final on Monday, so please give it a try to make sure that 0.0 release is nonetheless a good one :-) thanks !

With exception of the patch set of Laine which we will likely push in today or tomorrow. I have made the signed tarball and rpms available at the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ and also tagged the RC1 in git. This seems to work fine with my minimal testing, but obviously others should give it a try and try it in more diverse environments. If all goes well, I will push an rc2 on Thursday and plan the final release over the w.e. thanks for givit it a try, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[Libvirt-announce] ANNOUNCE: libvirt-glib release 1.0.0
by Daniel P. Berrange 04 Nov '16

04 Nov '16

I am pleased to announce that a new release of the libvirt-glib package, version 1.0.0, is now available from ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/glib/ The packages are GPG signed with Key fingerprint: DAF3 A6FD B26B 6291 2D0E 8E3F BE86 EBB4 1510 4FDF (4096R) Changes in this release: - Switch to new release numbering scheme, major digit incremented each year, minor for each release, micro for stable branches (if any) - Fix Libs.private variable in pkg-config file - Fix git introspection warnings - Add ability to set SPICE gl property - Add support for virtio video model - Add support for 3d accel property - Add support for querying video model - Add support for host device config for PCI devs - Add docs for more APIs - Avoid unused variable warnings - Fix check for libvirt optional features to use pkg-config - Delete manually written python binding. All apps should use PyGObject with gobjection introspection. - Add schema to be NULL on config objects - Preserve unknown devices listed in XML - Add further test coverage libvirt-glib comprises three distinct libraries: - libvirt-glib - Integrate with the GLib event loop and error handling - libvirt-gconfig - Representation of libvirt XML documents as GObjects - libvirt-gobject - Mapping of libvirt APIs into the GObject type system NB: While libvirt aims to be API/ABI stable forever, with libvirt-glib we are not currently guaranteeing that libvirt-glib libraries are permanently API/ABI stable. That said we do not expect to break the API/ABI for the forseeable future and will always strive avoid it. Follow up comments about libvirt-glib should be directed to the regular libvir-list(a)redhat.com development list. Thanks to all the people involved in contributing to this release.

[Libvirt-announce] Entering freeze for libvirt-2.4.0
by Daniel Veillard 31 Oct '16

31 Oct '16

As planned I just tagged the release in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ Not in my normal environment this week so I hadn't had a chance to test the build before pushing, sorry about this but things went smoothly, I noticed a warning in virsh however: CC virsh-virsh-host.o vsh.c: In function 'vshReadlineParse': vsh.c:516:9: warning: 'opts_need_arg' may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized] i = ffsl(*opts_need_arg) - 1; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ vsh.c:2658:14: note: 'opts_need_arg' was declared here uint64_t opts_need_arg, opts_seen; ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ that probably ought to be fixed for release. I hope to be able to push RC2 during the week-end and possibly the final 2.4.0 on the 1st Nov if all goes well. please give it some testing, thanks !

I think we can just initialize the opts_need_arg with const_opts_need_arg. Michal
