[libvirt] virConnectClose() sometimes seg faults libvirt 0.7.0
by Kaitlin Rupert 13 Aug '09

13 Aug '09

Hi, I'm trying to track down a seg fault I'm seeing with the libvirt-0.7.0-3.fc12.x86_64 rawhide version of libvirt. I'm having trouble finding the exact set of steps, as I see the behavior when interacting with the libvirt-cim providers. Here's the stack trace I was able to get. Looks like the seg fault actually occurs in netcf, which I haven't looked at much. Has anyone seen this? Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x00007fffe4004383 in ??

[libvirt] [PATCH] Compressed save image format for Qemu.
by Chris Lalancette 13 Aug '09

13 Aug '09

Implement a compressed save image format for qemu. While ideally we would have the choice between compressed/non-compressed available to the libvirt API, unfortunately there is no "flags" parameter to the virDomainSave() API. Therefore, implement this as a qemu.conf option. Both gzip and bzip2 are implemented, and it should be very easy to implement additional compression methods. One open question is if/how we should detect the gzip and bzip2 binaries. One way to do it is to do compile-time setting of the paths (via configure.in), but that doesn't seem like a great thing to do. Another solution (my preferred solution) is not to detect at all; when we go to run the commands that need them, if they aren't available, or aren't available in one of the standard paths, then we'll fail. Maybe somebody else has another option or opinion, though. In the future, we'll have a more robust (managed) save/restore API, at which time we can expose this functionality properly in the API. V2: get rid of redundant dd command and just use >> to append data. V3: Add back the missing pieces for the enum and bumping the save version.

[libvirt] [PATCH 00/20] Add support for (qcow*) volume encryption.
by Miloslav Trmač 11 Aug '09

11 Aug '09

Hello, the following patches add full support for qcow/qcow2 volume encryption, assuming a client that supports it. (Main changes since the previous version: * Use a separate API for "secret" management * Auto-generate the encryption format and passphrase if not supplied See the specific patch change logs for more details; patches without change logs are entirely new.) New XML tags are defined to represent encryption parameters (currently format and passphrase, more can be added in the future), e.g. <encryption format='qcow'> <secret type='passphrase' secret_id='724d95f2-0ed2-6ff9-84d0-0f3d1618428d'/> </encryption> The <encryption> tag can be added to a <volume> node passed to virStorageVolCreateXML() to create an encrypted volume, or to a <disk> node inside a <domain> to specify what encryption parameters to use for a domain. secret_id above refers to a separately-managed secret, which was set using virSecretSetValue(). Other properties of the secret can be managed using an XML representation. Detailed documentation of the formats and features is inside the patches.
