[libvirt] [PATCH v4 0/8] Add perf and Intel CMT feature support
by Qiaowei Ren
The series mainly adds Intel CMT feature support into libvirt. CMT is
new introduced PQos (Platform Qos) feature to monitor the usage of
cache by applications running on the platform.
Currently CMT patches has been merged into Linux kernel mainline.
The CMT implementation in Linux kernel is based on perf mechanism and
there is no support for perf in libvirt, and so this series firstly
add perf support into libvirt, including two public API and a set of
util interfaces. And based on these APIs and interfaces, thie series
implements CMT perf event support.
Current state:
* 1/8 - perf: add new public APIs for perf event
- ACKed by Daniel
* 2/8 - perf: implement the remote protocol for perf event
- ACKed by Daniel
* 3/8 - perf: implement a set of util functions for perf event
- ACKed by Daniel
* 4/8 - qemu_driver: add support to perf event
- restart perf in qemuProcessReconnect and qemuProcessAttach
in patch 6/8
* 5/8 - perf: add new xml element
- ACKed by Daniel
* 6/8 - perf: reenable perf events when libvirtd restart
- add qemuDomainPerfRestart() into qemuProcessReconnect() and
qemuProcessAttach()
* 7/8 - virsh: implement new command to support perf
- ACKed by Daniel
* 8/8 - virsh: extend domstats command
- ACKed by Daniel
TODO:
1. add support for new APIs into libvirt-python library.
Changes since v1:
* change perf APIs implementation to match new style of the API.
* add new xml element
* reenable all perf events previously enabled when libvirtd daemon
restart.
* redesign perf util functions.
Changes since v2:
* add an example XML file to the test suite.
* add virPerfReadEvent().
* change 'perf' xml element to new style.
* change 'perf' command to new stype.
Changes since v3:
* move qemuDomainPerfRestart() into qemuProcessReconnect() and
qemuProcessAttach().

[libvirt] [PATCH] tools: virt-host-validate: fix KVM check on s390
by Bjoern Walk
Since kernel version 4.5, s390 has the 'sie' flag to declare its

this check is passed correctly.

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: tolerate panic device on S390
by Boris Fiuczynski
If a panic device is being defined without a model in a domain
the default value is always overwritten with model ISA. An ISA
bus does not exist on S390 and therefore specifying a panic device
results in an unsupported configuration.
Since the s390 architecture inherently provides a crash detection
capability the panic device should be tolerated in the domain xml.
This patch achieves the toleration by setting the model to the
default value in case the architecture is S390.

[libvirt] [PATCH] SCSI storage: Initialise the pool size parameters to zero while refreshing
by Nitesh Konkar
If the pool creation thread happens to detect the luns
in the scsi target,the size parameters will be populated
as part of the refresh called from storagePoolCreate().
The commit <4a85bf3e2f> added additional refresh for
SCSI which should also have these values initialised
to zero, otherwise the values would appear exactly double.
A separate refresh would correct the values, but without
an explicit pool-refresh, the allocation/capacity would
appear exactly double after pool-create.

[libvirt] [PATCH] docs: Document NSS module
by Michal Privoznik
While we have a wiki page describing the feature [1] since the
feature is distributed in our .tar.gz we ought to document it. So
I went ahead, copied the wiki page and reformatted so it fits our
docs coding style.

+ <h1>Libvirt NSS module</h1>
+
+ <ul id="toc"></ul>
+
+ <p>
+ When it comes to managing guests and executing commands inside them, logging
+ into guest operating system and doing the job is convenient. Users are used
+ to ssh in this case. Ideally:
+ </p>
+
+ <code>ssh user@virtualMachine</code>
+
+ <p>
+ would be nice. But depending on virtual network configuration it might not
+ be always possible. For instance, when using libvirt NATed network it's
+ dnsmasq (spawned by libvirt) who assigns IP addresses to domains. But by
+ default, the dnsmasq process is then not consulted when it comes to host
+ name translation. Users work around this problem by configuring their
+ libvirt network to assign static IP addresses and maintaining
+ <code>/etc/hosts</code> file in sync. But this puts needless burden onto
+ users. This is where NSS module comes handy.
+ </p>
+
+ <h2><a name="Installation">Installation</a></h2>
+
+ <p>
+ Installing the module is really easy:
+ </p>
+
+<pre>
+# yum install libvirt-nss
+</pre>
+
+ <h2><a name="Configuration">Configuration</a></h2>
+
+ <p>
+ Enabling the module is really easy. Just add <b>libvirt</b> into
+ <code>/etc/nsswitch.conf</code> file. For instance:
+ </p>
+
+<pre>
+$ cat /etc/nsswitch.conf
+# /etc/nsswitch.conf:
+passwd: compat
+shadow: compat
+group: compat
+hosts: files libvirt dns
+# ...
+</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ So, in this specific case, whenever ssh program is looking up the host user
+ is trying to connect to, <b>files</b> module is consulted first (which
+ boils down to looking up the host name in <code>/etc/hosts</code> file), if
+ not found <b>libvirt</b> module is consulted then. The DNS is the last
+ effort then, if none of the previous modules matched the host in question.
+ Therefore users should consider the order in which they want the modules to
+ lookup given host name.
+ </p>
+
+ <h2><a name="Internals">How does it work?</a></h2>
+
+ <p>
+ Whenever an Unix process wants to do a host name translation
+ <a href="http://linux.die.net/man/3/gethostbyname"><code>gethostbyname()</code></a>
+ or some variant of it is called. This is a glibc function that takes a
+ string containing the host name, crunch it and produces a list of IP
+ addresses assigned to that host. Now, glibc developers made a really good
+ decision when implementing the internals of the function when they decided
+ to make the function pluggable. Since there can be several sources for the
+ records (e.g. <code>/etc/hosts</code> file, DNS, LDAP, etc.) it would not
+ make much sense to create one big implementation containing all possible
+ cases. What they have done instead is this pluggable mechanism. Small
+ plugins implementing nothing but specific technology for lookup process are
+ provided and the function then calls those plugins. There is just one
+ configuration file that instructs the lookup function in which order should
+ the plugins be called and which plugins should be loaded. For more info
+ reading <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Name_Service_Switch">wiki
+ page</a> is recommended.
+ </p>
+
+ <p>
+ And this is point where libvirt comes in. Libvirt provides plugin for the
+ NSS ecosystem. For some time now libvirt keeps a list of assigned IP
+ addresses for libvirt networks. The NSS plugin does no more than search the
+ list trying to find matching record for given host name. When found,
+ matching IP address is returned to the caller. If not found, translation
+ process continues with the next plugin configured. At this point it is
+ important to stress the order in which plugins are called. Users should be
+ aware that a hostname might match in multiple plugins and right after first
+ match, translation process is terminated and no other plugin is consulted.
+ Therefore, if there are two different records for the same host name users
+ should carefully chose the lookup order.
+ </p>
+
+ <h2><a name="Limitations">Limitations</a></h2>
+
+ <ol>
+ <li>The libvirt NSS module matches only hostnames provided by guest. If
+ the libvirt name and one advertised by guest differs, the latter is
+ matched.</li>
+ <li>The module works only in that cases where IP addresses are assigned by
+ dnsmasq spawned by libvirt. Libvirt NATed networks are typical
+ example.</li>
+ </ol>
+
+ <p>
+ These limitation are result of libvirt's internal implementation. While
+ libvirt can report IP addresses regardless of their origin, a public API
+ must be used to obtain those. However, for the API a connection object is
+ required. Doing that for every name translation request would be too
+ costly. Fortunately, libvirt spawns dnsmasq for NATed networks. Not only
+ that, it provides small executable that on each IP address space change
+ updates an internal list of addresses thus keeping it in sync. The NSS
+ module then merely consults the list trying to find the match. Users can
+ view the list themselves:
+ </p>
+
+<pre>
+virsh net-dhcp-leases $network
+</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ where <code>$network</code> iterates through all running networks. So the module
+ does merely the same as
+ </p>
+
+<pre>
+virsh domifaddr --source lease $domain
+</pre>
+
+ <p>
+ If there's no record for either of the aforementioned commands, it's very
+ likely that NSS module won't find anything and vice versa.
+ </p>
