[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] qemu: Unplug devices that disappeared when libvirtd was down

by Jiri Denemark

In case libvirtd is asked to unplug a device but the device is actually unplugged later when libvirtd is not running, we need to detect that and remove such device when libvirtd starts again and reconnects to running domains.

[libvirt] [RESEND PATCH 0/5] Handling of undefine and redefine snapshots with VirtualBox 4.2

by Manuel VIVES

Hi, This is a serie of patches in order to support undefining and redefining snapshots with VirtualBox 4.2. The serie of patches is rather big, and adds among other things some utility functions unrelated to VirtualBox in patches 1 & 2. The code review could be done in several parts: e.g. patches 1 & 2 separately to validate the utility functions. The VirtualBox API provides only high level operations to manipulate snapshots, so it not possible to support flags like VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_REDEFINE and VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_DELETE_METADATA_ONLY with only API calls. Following an IRC talk with Eric Blake, the decision was taken to emulate these behaviours by manipulating directly the .vbox XML files. The first two patches are some util methods for handling uuid and strings that will be used after. The third patch brings more details in the snapshot XML returned by libvirt. We will need those modifications in order to redefine the snapshots. The fourth patch brings the support of the VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_REDEFINE and VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_CURRENT flags in virDomainSnapshotCreateXML. The fifth and last patch brings the support of the VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_DELETE_METADATA_ONLY flag in virDomainSnapshotDelete. The patches are only for Virtualbox 4.2 Regards, Manuel VIVES Manuel VIVES (5): viruuid.h/c: Util method for finding uuid patterns in some strings virstring.h/c: Util method for making some find and replace in strings vbox_tmpl.c: Better XML description for snapshots vbox_tmpl.c: Patch for redefining snapshots vbox_tmpl.c: Add methods for undefining snapshots src/conf/domain_conf.c | 20 +- src/libvirt_private.syms | 2 + src/util/virstring.c | 129 ++++ src/util/virstring.h | 6 + src/util/viruuid.c | 79 ++ src/util/viruuid.h | 1 + src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c | 1821 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- 7 files changed, 1938 insertions(+), 120 deletions(-) -- 1.7.10.4

[libvirt] CfP 8th Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing (VHPC '13)

by VHPC 12

we apologize if you receive multiple copies of this CfP ================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS 8th Workshop on Virtualization in High-Performance Cloud Computing (VHPC '13) as part of SC 13, Denver, Colorado | sponsored by ACM sighpc ================================================================= Date: November 22, 2013 Workshop URL: http://vhpc.org Paper Submission Deadline: September 23, 2013 CALL FOR PAPERS Virtualization has become a common abstraction layer in modern data centers, enabling resource owners to manage complex infrastructures independently of their applications. Conjointly, virtualization is becoming a driving technology for a manifold of industry grade IT services. The cloud concept includes the notion of a separation between resource owners and users, adding services such as hosted application frameworks and queueing. Utilizing the same infrastructure, clouds carry significant potential for use in cpu-intensive or data-intensive computing. The ability of clouds to provide for requests and releases of vast computing resources dynamically and close to the marginal cost of providing the services is unprecedented in the history of scientific and commercial computing. This workshop aims to bring together industrial providers with the application community in order to foster discussion, collaboration and mutual exchange of knowledge and experience. The workshop will be one day in length, composed of 20 min paper presentations, each followed by 10 min discussion sections. Lightning talks are limited to 5 minutes. Presentations may be accompanied by interactive demonstrations.

[libvirt] CVE-2013-4153, CVE-2013-4154

by Eric Blake

Two CVEs have been assigned for recent patches both related to 'virsh vcpucount'. I have backported these patches to v1.1.0-maint (the only release impacted by either bug). CVE-2013-4153 was introduced by commit v1.0.6-48-gc6afcb0, and could allow a read-only client to cause a double free in libvirtd on a domain that has an active guest agent. CVE-2013-4154 was introduced by commit v1.0.6-47-g29c1e91, and could allow a read-only client to cause libvirtd to crash on a domain without a guest agent. commit dfc692350a04a70b4ca65667c30869b3bfdaf034 Author: Peter Krempa <pkrempa(a)redhat.com> Date: Tue Jul 16 15:39:06 2013 +0200 qemu: Fix double free of returned JSON array in qemuAgentGetVCPUs() A part of the returned monitor response was freed twice and caused crashes of the daemon when using guest agent cpu count retrieval. # virsh vcpucount dom --guest Introduced in v1.0.6-48-gc6afcb0 commit 96518d4316b711c72205117f8d5c967d5127bbb6 Author: Alex Jia <ajia(a)redhat.com> Date: Tue Jul 16 17:30:20 2013 +0800 qemu: Prevent crash of libvirtd without guest agent configuration If users haven't configured guest agent then qemuAgentCommand() will dereference a NULL 'mon' pointer, which causes crash of libvirtd when using agent based cpu (un)plug. With the patch, when the qemu-ga service isn't running in the guest, a expected error "error: Guest agent is not responding: Guest agent not available for now" will be raised, and the error "error: argument unsupported: QEMU guest agent is not configured" is raised when the guest hasn't configured guest agent.

[libvirt] Using TLS with chained certs?

by Jon Stanley

I've got a setup where a given cert (for a machine) is issued randomly by one of three CA's, all of which are signed by a root CA. When using this with libvirt, it will refuse to start if the cert is signed by a CA other than the top one in the /etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem file, and if the client cert is issued by a different CA than the server cert (quite the possibility), then obviously that connection is rejected. It looks like in src/rpc/virnettlscontext.c we're using gnutls_x509_crt_import() instead of gnutls_x509_crt_list_import() which would account for this behavior.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] Convert cgroups code to report errors

by Daniel P. Berrange

From: "Daniel P. Berrange" <berrange(a)redhat.com> Since the viralloc.h methods were changed to report errors, the cgroups code's approach of returning errno values is even less sensible than it was before. This series changes the cgroups code to report errors throughout. As a general point, I think we should have a goal of eliminating the use of 'return -errno' in all libvirt code, since it will let us provide more accurate error messages. Daniel P.

[libvirt] [PATCH] security: fix deadlock with prefork

by Eric Blake

Attempts to start a domain with both SELinux and DAC security modules loaded will deadlock; latent problem introduced in commit fdb3bde and exposed in commit 29fe5d7. Basically, when recursing into the security manager for other driver's prefork, we have to undo the asymmetric lock taken at the manager level. Reported by Jiri Denemark, with diagnosis help from Dan Berrange. * src/security/security_stack.c (virSecurityStackPreFork): Undo extra lock grabbed during recursion.
