[libvirt] [PATCH tck] Avoid multicast MAC addrs in tests
by Daniel P. Berrange
From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com>
Certain MAC addrs are used for multicast and recent libvirt
will refuse to start VMs using those addrs.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix crash changing CDROM media
by Daniel P. Berrange
From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com>
This change tried to fix a crash with changing CDROM media but
failed to actually do so
commit d0172d2b1b5d865aaa042070d7c2d00effb2ff8c
Author: Osier Yang <jyang(a)redhat.com>
Date: Tue Feb 19 20:27:45 2013 +0800
qemu: Remove the shared disk entry if the operation is ejecting or updating
It was still accessing disk->src, when the entire 'disk' object
has been free'd already. Even if it weren't free'd, accessing
the 'src' value of virDomainDiskDef is not allowed without
first validating disk->type is file or block. Just remove the
broken code entirely.

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Refactor qemuDomainSetMemoryParameters
by Peter Krempa
The new TypedParam helper APIs allow to simplify this function
significantly.
This patch integrates the fix in 75e5bec97b3045e4f926248d5c742f8a50d0f9
by correctly ordering the setting functions instead of reordering the
parameters.

[libvirt] [PATCHv2 0/5] Add API to allow TCP connection tunelling
by Peter Krempa
This series adds ability for the qemu driver to tunnel connections to TCP
ports from the host. This is useful for enabling remote VNC/SPICE sessions
without the need to configure SSH tunnels or portforwards and without the
need to open the ports for public.
There's also an advantage for tools such as virt-viewer that have to guess the remote
connection parameters and you have to hope that nothing is in your way. With
spice/VNC clients that have support for read/write callbacks, this would allow also
direct connection without an intermediate socket.
The API and tunelling works but there's no (stable and good working) client for
this API. I hacked up a dirty netcat-like terminal into virsh for testing
purposes (see patch 5/5) but that isn't what I'd like to see.
The client should be able to open a listening socket and when a client connects
to it, it opens a stream and connects it to the remote host.
For the client there are two options:
1) do all the stuff in virsh: + one tool to rule them all
- i'd like to daemonize it and I don't know if that's okay in virsh
2) add a new tool "virtunnel": + less virsh pollution
- separate tool ...
As nobody responded, I'd like to re-ask for someones opinion on this.
(note: this is my personal effort, I'm annoyed of opening ssh tunnels to remote displays on my server
and I don't want to open the ports to public. )
After this it would be great to add support for this to virt-viewer. I will have a look at that later.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] Using client-id for DHCPv6 host identification
by Gene Czarcinski
The first patch is a trivial fix to the network schema
since the name in dhcp-host is really optional.
The second patch adds the capability to use the client id
to improve the reliability of having a system use a fixed
IPv6 address.
Gene Czarcinski (2):
Trivial fix: in dhcp-host the name is optional
use client id for IPv6 DHCP host definition

[libvirt] Versioning/Compatibility in the XML schemas
by Pieter Hollants
Out of curiosity, seeing that we doing modifications to the XML schema
all the time, there does not seem to be some sort of version identifier
in the XML schemas.
If I take the recently merged patch for DHCP options, for instance,
suppose virt-manager would add support for it in its GUI. How would such
a network XML definition be interpreted by older libvirt versions? Is it
supposed to ignore elements it doesn't know or do we have an implicit
requirement of "always use the latest versions together"?

[libvirt] [PATCH v2 resend 0/4]use VIR_ENUM_DECL for domain NIC model and add usb-net
by Guannan Ren
v1 to v2
*removed i8* NIC models support for QEMU/KVM
*updated docs
*rebased
This patchset uses VIR_ENUM_DECL and VIR_ENUM_IMPL macros for NIC models
and changes the related codes to use them.
All of NIC models supported by various hypervisors comprise of the enum,
so the problem is that we need to do further checking in hypervisor-specific
implementation. Fortunately, VMX and Vbox did this checking very well already.
In 4/4, a similar job is performed for QEMU/KVM.
And, adds usb-net support.
The vendorId and productID of is 0525:a4a2. The corresponding item in
usb-ids is as follows:
0525 Netchip Technology, Inc.
a4a2 Linux-USB Ethernet/RNDIS Gadget
In my opinion, using usb-net directly is good enough, so I keep it.
Any other idea is welcome.
Libvirt XML sample:
<devices>
<interface type='user'>
<mac address='52:54:00:32:6a:91'/>
<model type='usb-net'/>
<alias name='net1'/>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
</interface>
</devices>
qemu commandline:
qemu ${other_vm_args}
-netdev user,id=hostnet1 \
-device usb-net,netdev=hostnet1,id=net1,\
mac=52:54:00:32:6a:91,bus=usb.0,port=1

[libvirt] [PATCH] interface: Fix udev backend bridge device display
by Doug Goldstein
The bridge device was showing the vnet devices created for the domains
as connected to the bridge. libvirt should only show host devices when
trying to get the interface definition rather than the domain devices as
well.
---
Honestly this method sucks. But it makes the code path work and doesn't
result in brokenness. I was really thinking of sscanf() but I don't really
care to store the values. Suggestions?
