[libvirt] [PATCH RFC] libxl: reverse defaults on HVM net device attach
by Joao Martins 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

libvirt libxl picks its own default with respect to the default NIC to use. libxlMakeNic is the one responsible for this and on boot it picks LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_VIF_IOEMU such that it accomodates both PV and emulated one. The good behaving guest at boot will then select the pv and unplug the emulated device. Now, on HVM when attaching an interface it will pick the same default that is LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_VIF_IOEMU which as a result will fail the attach (see xen commit 32e9d0f ("libxl: nic type defaults to vif in hotplug for hvm guest"). Xen doesn't yet support the hotplug of emulated devices, but we don't want to rule out that case either, which might get support in the future. Hence we simply reverse the defaults when we are attaching the interface which allows libvirt to prefer the PV nic first without adding "model='netfront'" following the same pattern as above commit. Also to avoid ruling out the emulated one we set to LIBXL_NIC_TYPE_IOEMU when setting a model type that is not 'netfront'. Signed-off-by: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins(a)oracle.com> --- This allows Openstack to attach network interfaces, which currently is broken on libxl if it doesn't set model 'netfront'. I am not sure whether this is the best way (hence RFC) or if users should really be setting the model='netfront' when attaching devices. But sounds to me that it would be better to have by default the supported, and if users want emulated attach to specify a nic model.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] network: Add support for local PTR domains
by Jiri Denemark 13 Dec '16

13 Dec '16

I run a system dnsmasq to be able to forward specific DNS requests to specific servers. And I have it configured for both forward and reverse lookups. Another dnsmasq is started for a virtual network with domain "virt". The system dnsmasq knows it needs to forward any requests for the "virt" domain and corresponding PTR domain to the dnsmasq started by libvirt. The problem is dnsmasq forwards queries for unknown names to the upstream name server (which is the system instance in my case). One can get nice endless loops of DNS requests pretty easily. Forward loops can be avoided by specifying localOnly='yes', but there was no way to avoid reverse lookup loops. And this is what I'm trying to address in the following patches.
