[libvirt] Unsupported network type ethernet
by sonia verma
Hi Team
I need to launch LXC VM using ethernet network type using libvirt.While
trying the same, I'm getting below errors ..
*error: internal error: Unsupported network type ethernet*
Is there any patch available to add ethernet support to Libvirt with LXC VM
?
Please let me know regarding this.
Thanks

[libvirt] [PATCH] libxl: libxl_domain_create_restore has an extra argument
by Wei Liu
In the latest libxenlight code, libxl_domain_create_restore accepts a
new argument. Update libvirt's libxl driver for that. Use the macro
provided by libxenlight to detect which version should be used.
The new parameter (send_back_fd) is set to -1 because libvirt provides
no such fd.

Build test with Xen 4.6.1 (old API) and Xen unstable (new API).

[libvirt] 200ms delay waiting for qemu monitor
by Richard W.M. Jones
[Thanks to Dan Berrangé for doing the analysis of this one]
I was investigating a 200+ millisecond delay when libvirt starts a
qemu guest. You can see the traces here:
http://oirase.annexia.org/tmp/libvirt.log
http://oirase.annexia.org/tmp/libvirtd.log
The delay happens at around 16:52:57.327-6:52:57.528 in the libvirtd log.
As you can see the delay is almost precisely 200ms.
Dan found the cause which seems to be this code:
https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=blob;f=src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c;h...
(There are other examples of the same anti-pattern in src/fdstream.c
and src/qemu/qemu_agent.c, but it's the particular code above which
seems to be causing the delay).
To give you some sense why I regard this as a problem, the TOTAL time
taken to launch and shutdown the libguestfs appliance (that includes
qemu, BIOS, guest kernel, probing and mouting disks, running the
guestfs daemon, and the shutdown process in reverse), without libvirt,
is now 900ms. Libvirt adds about 220ms on top of this.
What can we do about this? Obviously we could simply reduce the
delay, but even if it was set to 20ms, that would be too much (aim is
to reduce the whole process from 900ms down to 150ms), and it would
also mean that libvirt was essentially polling.
Can we use inotify to detect if the socket has been created? Seems to
create portability problems.
Dan suggested:
Can we create the socket in libvirtd and pass it to qemu?
Can we pass a file descriptor to qemu?
Other suggestions?
Rich.

[libvirt] [PATCH v2 0/3] qemu: Explicitly check for gnutls_rnd()
by Andrea Bolognani
Patch 1 fixes a bug in configure.
Patch 2 performs a minor cleanup.
Patch 3 is the fix for the build issues currently experienced
on CentOS 6 (see [1]).
Changes from v1:
* update CFLAGS and LIBS before performing the check, so
that the compiler can actually find the function
Cheers.
[1] https://ci.centos.org/view/libvirt-project/job/libvirt-daemon-build/syste...
Andrea Bolognani (3):
configure: Restore CFLAGS properly after GnuTLS checks
configure: Always use old_CFLAGS and old_LIBS
qemu: Explicitly check for gnutls_rnd()

[libvirt] [PATCH v2] host-validate: Improve CPU flags processing
by Andrea Bolognani
Instead of relying on substring search, tokenize the input
and process each CPU flag separately. This ensures CPU flag
detection will continue to work correctly even if we start
looking for CPU flags whose name might appear as part of
other CPU flags' names.
The result of processing is stored in a virBitmap, which
means we don't have to parse /proc/cpuinfo in its entirety
for each single CPU flag we want to check.
Moreover, use of the newly-introduced virHostValidateCPUFlag
enumeration ensures we don't go looking for random CPU flags
which might actually be simple typos.
---
Changes in v2:
* use virStringSplitCount() and STRPREFIX() instead of
strtok_r() and strcmp(), as suggested by Peter

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Check for gnutls_rnd() explicitly
by Andrea Bolognani
Our use of gnutls_rnd() is conditional to the availability of
the <gnutls/crypto.h> header file.
Such check, however, turns out not to be strict enough as there
are some versions of gnutls (eg. 2.8.5 as available in CentOS 6)
that provide the header file, but not the function itself, which
was introduced in 2.12.0.
Introduce an explicit check for the function itself.
---
Would qualify as a build breaker (see [1]) but I'd rather have
some feedback before pushing it.

Clear the pointer after freeing the memory.

FreeBSD lacks ENODATA, and viruuid.c redefines it to EIO. However,

re-definition to a common place, virutil.h, so it could fix things for
both consumers.
