[libvirt] [PATCH] Attempt to detect cdrom change failures
by Cole Robinson 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

If a 'change' or 'eject' qemu monitor command fails, an error message is printed to the monitor of the form "device {not found, is locked, is not removable"}. This is really the only indication we have that the command errored out, so scrape the monitor reply for "\ndevice " and fail if it is found. Thanks, Cole commit 8caba367b62b4fb961722cd641d8172bb441b84e Author: Cole Robinson <crobinso(a)dhcp-100-19-219.bos.redhat.com> Date: Fri Aug 22 16:35:24 2008 -0400 Scrape cdrom attach/eject monitor output to try and determine failure. diff --git a/src/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu_driver.c index 9a26375..05e7402 100644 --- a/src/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu_driver.c @@ -2994,6 +2994,19 @@ static int qemudDomainChangeCDROM(virDomainPtr dom, VIR_FREE(newsrc); return -1; } + + /* If the command failed qemu prints: + * device not found, device is locked ... + * No message is printed on success it seems */ + DEBUG ("cdrom change reply: %s", reply); + if (strstr(reply, "\ndevice ")) { + qemudReportError (dom->conn, dom, NULL, VIR_ERR_OPERATION_FAILED, + "%s", _("changing cdrom media failed)); + VIR_FREE(reply); + VIR_FREE(cmd); + return -1; + } + VIR_FREE(reply); VIR_FREE(cmd);

[libvirt] [PATCH] Update domain xml after usb hotplug

[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix disk device ordering
by Cole Robinson 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

When parsing the domain xml, disks are supposed to be rearranged in an alphabetic order based on bus type and target. The reordering code had a flaw though, in that it would always put the first disk it encountered at the head of the list, and had no way of putting new entries in front of it. The attached patch reworks the code to compare the new disk against the current disk entry (rather than the next entry like the existing code). Seems to pass all my tests.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Add success output to virsh attach/detach commands

[libvirt] [PATCH] introducing <source> <name> (for logical storage pools)
by David Lively 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hi Folks - This small patch is a proposed prerequisite for the storage pool discovery patch I submitted last week. Daniel B proposed having storage pool discovery return a bunch of XML storage <source> elements, rather than full <pool> elements (which contain "target-dependent" details like the local pool name and device or mount path -- things which don't need to be decided unless/until the pool is defined). I like his suggestion a lot, and I think it addresses the final API-definition problem keeping storage pool discovery out of libvirt. But ... it doesn't quite work for logical storage pools because those are created from the <pool> <name> element (which is the same as the volume group name). This patch introduces a new <source> element <name>, which is distinct from the pool name. <name> is used only by the logical storage backend, and represents the volume group name. For convenience and back-compatibility, <source> <name> defaults to the pool name if not specified when the pool is defined, and <pool> <name> defaults to the source name if not specified. There is no requirement that pool and source name be the same, though. While admittedly it seems a little weird, it does allow more flexibility (pool name not tied to vol group name), and allows <source> to fully specify a logical pool source, as it does for the other pool types[*]. Defaulting the source name from the pool name means all existing pool XML definitions continue to work. Defaulting the pool name from the source name is simply a matter of convenience (but perhaps a step too far?) If this is accepted, logical pool discovery can then return a bunch of sources like: <source><name>VolGroup00</name></source> <source><name>VolGroup01</name></source> Please note I'll be on vacation next week (Aug 11-15), so I may not be responding until the following week. Thanks, Dave [*] Well ... almost. Note that directory pools have a similar issue -- the "source" of the pool is given by the <target> <path> -- there's no <source>. I suppose implementing directory pool discovery (for the sake of completeness) means addressing this as well, maybe via some similar mechanism ...

[libvirt] [PATCH] Don't list capabilities entries if emulators can't be accessed
by Cole Robinson 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

The patch below fixes capabilities xml generation for the qemu driver if the emulators aren't found in the hardcoded paths. Current behavior will add a <guest> entry for the emulator even if it does not exist, patch fixes this to check that we actually have access. This brings up another issue, that hardcoded paths aren't exactly distro friendly. I'm not really familiar with what options we have to allow specifying these at build time (or something else). Anyone have an idea?

[libvirt] PATCH: 0/5: Enhancing the virExec function
by Daniel P. Berrange 02 Sep '08

02 Sep '08

The following series of patches do a bunch of work on the virExec function. Overall this leads to a more robust implementation with better error reporting, and an increased level functionality. This lets us remove all uses of fork/exec in libvirt and replace them with virExec. This was all motivated by some fork/exec bugs discovered when refactoring LXC driver which have potential to affect every use of fork/exec in our code.
