I believe that useful information being available only through stderr is at least as bad as being available only through HMP. Should we extend QMP more proactively in cases like this, too?

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/5] Fix a couple of force snapshot revert issues
by John Ferlan 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

Well, at least I hope so. There's a couple of related bz's in the last two patches with gobs more details, but the long and short of it is that when using the force flag, the domain is Stop'd and re-Start'd without applying any snapshot. For both issues I've seen, the "error: internal error: unexpected async job 6" occurs on the Start and thus the CPU's aren't started. For one bz, when running managedsave the call never returns. For the other bz, one cannot restart the paused domain. If there's a better way to do this - I'm sure someone will let me know.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/6] qemu: command: Replace vlan= with netdev=
by Cole Robinson 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

Most VMs libvirt knows how to launch will have qemu network config like: -netdev $NETDEV_OPTS,id=netdev1 -device e1000,id=netdev1 However for machine types with built-in platform network devices, we currently do: -net nic,model=e1000,vlan=1 -net $NETDEV_OPTS,vlan=1 However for the platform case, all qemu versions we support can do: -netdev $NETDEV_OPTS,id=netdev1 -net nic,model=e1000,netdev=netdev1 Which simplifies our code, and is more future proof as qemu has deprecated the vlan= option. This series switches to the netdev= method, and performs some cleanups in related code. Thanks, Cole Cole Robinson (6): qemu: command: Make qemuBuildNicStr static qemu: command: Rename BuildNicStr to BuildLegacyNicStr qemu: command: remove unused LegacyNicStr arg 'prefix' qemu: command: replace vlan= with netdev= for legacy nic qemu: Remove vlan function arguments qemu: command: vhost: cleanup error reporting src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 99 ++++++------------- src/qemu/qemu_command.h | 8 -- src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c | 3 +- .../arm-vexpressa9-basic.args | 4 +- 4 files changed, 33 insertions(+), 81 deletions(-) -- 2.17.1

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] qemu: add comma escaping in qemu_command.c
by Anya Harter 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

The function virQEMUBuildBufferEscapeComma is used to escape commas in user provided fields for qemu command line processing in the four functions listed below. A corresponding test for each comma escaping instance has been added to tests/qemuxml2argvdata/name-escape.xml. This should complete the BiteSizedTask entry at https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/BiteSizedTasks#qemu:_Use_comma_escaping_for_m….

[libvirt] libvirt profiles (a.k.a. virtuned) design ideas draft
by Martin Kletzander 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

After some discussion with people from various management apps we decided to try and create something that would help with common, duplicated, and perhaps easy to extract things for which the code exists in some (or most) of the projects. I'd be glad for any feedback, so here is the rendered document: https://github.com/nertpinx/virt-manager/blob/virtuned-docs/docs/virtuned.md and here you can comment: https://github.com/nertpinx/virt-manager/pull/1/files Even though this does not concern libvirt developers, I'm adding pointers here in case someone wants to chime in.

[libvirt] [PATCH v3 0/4] qemu: Allow concurrent access to monitor and guest agent
by Michal Privoznik 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

v3 of: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-June/msg01358.html Patches 1/4 and 2/4 are ACKed already. Patch 3/4 is new and implements agent job acquiring when doing snapshots (as suggested by Jirka in his review). Patch 4/4 is written differently (again as suggested by him) although the semantic is the same as in previous version of the patch.

[libvirt] [PATCH v2] qemu: fix msg could be a wild pointer in qemuMonitorIOProcess()
by Weilun Zhu 20 Jun '18

20 Jun '18

As qemuMonitorJSONIOProcess() will unlock the qemu monitor, there is some extreme situation, eg qemu send message to monitor twice in a short time, where the local viriable 'msg' of qemuMonitorIOProcess() could be a wild point: 1. qemuMonitorSend() assign mon->msg to parameter 'msg', which is alse a local variable of its caller qemuMonitorJSONCommandWithFd(), cause eventloop to send message to monitor, then wait condition. 2. qemu send message to monitor for the first time immediately. 3. qemuMonitorIOProcess() is called, then wake up the qemuMonitorSend() thread, but the qemuMonitorSend() thread stuck for a while as cpu pressure or some other reasons,, which means the qemu monitor is still unlocked. 4. qemu send event message to monitor for the second time, such as RTC_CHANGE event 5. qemuMonitorIOProcess() is called, the local viriable 'msg' is assigned to mon->msg. 6. qemuMonitorIOProcess() call qemuMonitorJSONIOProcess() to deal with the qemu event. 7. qemuMonitorJSONIOProcess() unlock the qemu monitor in the macro 'QEMU_MONITOR_CALLBACK', then qemuMonitorSend() thread get the mutex and free the mon->msg, assign mon->msg to NULL. so the local viriable 'msg' of qemuMonitorIOProcess() is a wild pointer now. AFAIK, it is not harmful to call again virCondBroadcast() while msg is a wild pointer, but just in case, we fix it in this patch. --- src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c | 8 ++++++++ 1 file changed, 8 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c b/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c index 215135aa3e..a4b8572e24 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c @@ -463,6 +463,14 @@ qemuMonitorIOProcess(qemuMonitorPtr mon) #if DEBUG_IO VIR_DEBUG("Process done %d used %d", (int)mon->bufferOffset, len); #endif + + /* As the monitor mutex was unlocked in qemuMonitorJSONIOProcess() + * while dealing with qemu event, mon->msg could be changed, + * thus we re-acquire the msg here */ + msg = NULL; + if (mon->msg && mon->msg->txOffset == mon->msg->txLength) { + msg = mon->msg; + if (msg && msg->finished) virCondBroadcast(&mon->notify); return len; -- 2.18.0.rc1

The flag is true after qemu_register_wakeup_notifier(). Callers so far: * piix4_pm_realize() via acpi_pm1_cnt_init() This is the realize method of device PIIX4_PM. It's an optional onboard device (suppressed by -no-acpi) of machine types pc-i440fx-VERSION, pc-VERSION, malta. * pc_q35_init() via ich9_lpc_pm_init(), ich9_pm_init(), acpi_pm1_cnt_init() This is the initialization method of machine types pc-q35-VERSION. Note that -no-acpi is not honored. * vt82c686b_pm_realize() via acpi_pm1_cnt_init() This is the realize method of device VT82C686B_PM. It's an onboard device of machine type fulong2e. Again, -no-acpi is not honored. * xen_hvm_init() This one gets called with -accel xen. I suspect the actual callback xen_wakeup_notifier() doesn't actually make wakeup work, unlike the acpi_notify_wakeup() callback registered by the other callers. Issue#1: this calls into question your assumption that the existence of a wake-up notifier implies wake-up works. It still holds if --accel xen is only accepted together with other configuration that triggers registration of acpi_notify_wakeup(). Is it? Stefano, Anthony? Issue#2: the flag isn't a property of the target. Due to -no-acpi, it's not even a property of the machine type. If it was, query-machines would be the natural owner of the flag. Perhaps query-machines is still the proper owner. The value of wakeup-suspend-support would have to depend on -no-acpi for the machine types that honor it. Not ideal; I'd prefer MachineInfo to be static. Tolerable? I guess that's also a libvirt question.
