The same comment is in in all of the other "subdriver" remote...Open () routines. It's not quite clear what "remote" means where, as far as I can see "remote" means an "explicitly remote" URL, e.g. anything+tls://hostname/..., and "QEMU" means "qemu://hostname/..." (rejected by qemu_driver).

The secret is not "tied" to a volume - the volume is an optional attribute. A libvirt user can ignore the volume field completely, and manage the secrets separately - but other clients, e.g. virt-manager, can use the volume attribute to locate a secret for a given volume without storing any data outside of libvirt.

An earlier patch was calling the ID of a secret object "secret_id" everywhere, leading to constructs like <secret secret_id=.../> In an earlier patch review I was asked to change that.

No, the value is an arbitrary set of bytes that is never passed through XML. Originally it was (void *value, size_t value_size), the change to (unsigned char *value, size_t value_size) was requested in an earlier review.

Those parts are documented in later patches that add references to secrets to the <volume> and <domain> XML formats.

The values are never transferred in the XML, only using the virSecret[GS]etValue functions. (Storing secrets in XML was a major objection against the first version of my patch e.g. because XML tends to be revealed in various debugging dumps.)

[libvirt] OpenVZ : The restriction of domain name should be addressed
by Yuji NISHIDA
Hi,
"The current libvirt OpenVZ driver has a restriction that the domain
names must match the OpenVZ container VEID"
I really want to have domain name as character, not integer.
It could help me very much if any patch against this problem would be
released.
Is there anyone tackling this problem now?( or going to? )
Otherwise, any hint would help me.
Regards.

[libvirt] Integrating MAC address based filtering into libvirt
by Gerhard Stenzel
Hello,
I am currently investigating the possibility to implement MAC address
based filtering in libvirt and was wondering if there is any related
effort going on and what people in general would think about that.
Here is a description of my current prototype implementation:
I have a small setup of two guests and a network:
Guest1:
root@stenzel-desktop:/etc/libvirt/qemu# cat build1.xml
<domain type='kvm'>
<name>build1</name>
...
<interface type='network'>
<mac address='D0:0F:D0:0F:02:01'/>
<source network='mynet'/>
<model type='virtio' />
</interface>
...
</domain>
Guest2:
root@stenzel-desktop:/etc/libvirt/qemu# cat build2.xml
<domain type='kvm'>
<name>build2</name>
...
<interface type='network'>
<mac address='D0:0F:D0:0F:02:02'/>
<source network='mynet'/>
<model type='virtio' />
</interface>
...
</domain>
and the network to which I added a new XML element "filter" with
attribute "mac", which switches on the MAC address filtering:
root@stenzel-desktop:/etc/libvirt/qemu# cat networks/mynet.xml
<network>
<name>mynet</name>
<uuid>920debe0-c3ef-4395-8241-ee82d4b49c2d</uuid>
<bridge name="br%d" stp="off"/>
<filter mac="on"/>
</network>
the "filter" element is evaluated at startup of libvirtd and a generic
ebtables rules is generated (all frames are dropped):
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo ebtables -L
Bridge table: filter
...
Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 0, policy: DROP
...
When starting up guest1, ...
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo virsh start build1
Domain build1 started
... an ebtables rule is generated to allow its mac address on the its
interface:
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo ebtables -L
...
Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 1, policy: DROP
-s d0:f:d0:f:2:1 -i vnet0 -j ACCEPT
...
the same happens when starting up the second guest:
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo virsh start build2
Domain build2 started
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo ebtables -L
...
Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 2, policy: DROP
-s d0:f:d0:f:2:2 -i vnet1 -j ACCEPT
-s d0:f:d0:f:2:1 -i vnet0 -j ACCEPT
...
so the two guests are allowed to communicate.
After destroying the two guests, the corresponding ebtables rules are
removed:
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo virsh destroy
build2
Domain build2 destroyed
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo ebtables -L
...
Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 1, policy: DROP
-s d0:f:d0:f:2:1 -i vnet0 -j ACCEPT
...
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo virsh destroy
build1
Domain build1 destroyed
stenzel@stenzel-desktop:~/projects/vsn/libvirt$ sudo ebtables -L
...
Bridge chain: FORWARD, entries: 0, policy: DROP
...
The current prototype implementation is based on the existing iptables
wrapper in libvirt. I basically cloned the iptables wrapper to an
ebtables wrapper and did some ebtables specific adjustments. There are
currenlty four occasions when the ebtables wrapper is called:
- when creating the network
- when adding a guest to the network
- when removing a guest from the network
- when destroying the network (currently not implemented)
These calls can be augmented to also do for example tagged vlan and
protocol filtering.
Configuring the filter rules via virsh is also an option.
Comments are appreciated.

[libvirt] PATCH: Support setting a disk drive serial (number)
by Daniel P. Berrange
All hard disks (IDE, SCSI, USB, VirtIO) have a concept of a serial number
which is intended to uniquely identify them. If you mean this off, QEMU
just makes up a serial on the fly. THis is not guarenteed to be stable
across guest reboots with hardware changes. It is thus desirable to be
able to specify this in libvirt XML. To that end, this patch allows
for a <serial> element inside a disk
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<source file='/media/lacie-500-disk-2/virtual-machines/scratch5.img'/>
<target dev='vda' bus='virtio'/>
<serial>dan123virtio</serial>
</disk>
the contents is free-form. It implemenmts this for the QEMU driver for
any disk using -drive style args. Unfortunately this excludes USB disk,
even though internally QEMU can set a serial for these, the -usbdevice
syntax does not allow it

[libvirt] [PATCH] Don't expose 'vnet%d' to the user
by Mark McLoughlin
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/517371
Matt Booth points out that if you use a non-existent bridge name when
start a guest you get a weird error message:
Failed to add tap interface 'vnet%d' to bridge 'virbr0'
and dev='vnet%d' appears in the dumpxml output.
Fix that by not including 'vnet%d' in the error message and freeing the
'vnet%d' string if adding the tap device to the bridge fails.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/8] Various KVM PCI device assignment improvements
by Mark McLoughlin
Hi,
Here's a fairly mixed set of KVM PCI device assignment
improvements:
- Add hotplug support
- Allow PM reset on multi-function devices
- Allow Secondary Bus Reset even if it causes other devices to be
reset, so long as those other devices are in use by the same
VM or are unused
- Re-attach devices when the guest shuts down
- Properly detect versions of QEMU without -pcidevice support
Cheers,
Mark.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix up connection reference counting.
by Chris Lalancette
Currently the reference counting for connections is busted. I
first noticed it while trying to use virConnectRef; it would
eventually cause a crash in the remote_internal driver, although
that was really just a victim. Really, we should only call the
close callbacks on the methods when the references drop to 0. To
accomplish this, move all of the close callbacks into
virUnrefConnect (since there are lots of internal users of that
function), and arrange for virConnectClose to call that.
V2: Make sure to drop the connection lock before we call the close
callbacks, otherwise we could deadlock the daemon

[libvirt] Share storage using iscsi [EDIT as I cut off part]
by Łukasz Mierzwa
Hi,
I'm trying to setup pool of machines (nodes) for virtual machines hosting and
I got few question about shared storage. My main requirements are:
1. central management - I've got simple python app that stores information
about all virtual machines and all nodes, this app needs to be able to manage
volumes using libvirt API, so I need libvirt volume pools
2. live migration - I got shared storage with HA, I want to use it also for
live migration in case one of nodes is dying or if I want to do some load
balancing
Right now I'm thinking about 2 machines with disks synchronized using drdb,
both acting as a identical iscsi targets, iscsi HA will be provided by
heartbeat. So I will end up with virtual IP pointing to working iscsi target,
drdb should keep storage is sync. But:
1. I can't just use single iscsi LUN and export it as libvirt storage pool to
each node, because no pool type would work that way, right?
2. http://libvirt.org/storage.html section "iSCSI volume pools" says:
"Volumes must be pre-allocated on the iSCSI server, and cannot be created via
the libvirt APIs."
So even if I got one LUN per node and set it as iscsi volume pool I would need
to create each volume on iscsi target. Libvirt can't manage volumes in such
pool, it can only assign already created volumes to virtual machines, right?
3. So maybe my storage could be setup as LVM volume group and this lvm group
would be managed as libvirt lvm volume pool on master (from heartbeat POV)
iscsi target. I would create one logical volume per virtual machine, export
this volume as a separate iscsi LUN, and use this LUN as iscsi volume for
virtual machine.
To create new virtual machine I would:
a) create lvm volume on iscsi target using libvirt
b) export this volume using iscsi
c) define virtual machine with this volume
But can I create iscsi volume without pool?
Does it makes any sense? Are there better ways to *manage* volumes for virtual
machines using iscsi?
Thanks for any tips.

[libvirt] [PATCH 00/08] More misc device assignment fixes
by Mark McLoughlin
Hey,
I had a little change of heart about the patches committed last week to
allow pciResetDevice() reset multiple devices. The callback to check whether a
device is active is much to cumbersome, instead we should maintain a list of
active devices. Patch 2 reverts two commits from last week and patch 7 and 8
replace them with something much better.
The reset of the patches are a bunch of fairly minor fixes.
Cheers,
Mark.
