vhost-user-blk bypasses the QEMU block layer, so NBD storage migration
at the QEMU level will not work for the vhost-user-blk disk.

[libvirt] Supporting vhost-net and macvtap in libvirt for QEMU
by Anthony Liguori
Disclaimer: I am neither an SR-IOV nor a vhost-net expert, but I've CC'd
people that are who can throw tomatoes at me for getting bits wrong :-)
I wanted to start a discussion about supporting vhost-net in libvirt.
vhost-net has not yet been merged into qemu but I expect it will be soon
so it's a good time to start this discussion.
There are two modes worth supporting for vhost-net in libvirt. The
first mode is where vhost-net backs to a tun/tap device. This is
behaves in very much the same way that -net tap behaves in qemu today.
Basically, the difference is that the virtio backend is in the kernel
instead of in qemu so there should be some performance improvement.
Current, libvirt invokes qemu with -net tap,fd=X where X is an already
open fd to a tun/tap device. I suspect that after we merge vhost-net,
libvirt could support vhost-net in this mode by just doing -net
vhost,fd=X. I think the only real question for libvirt is whether to
provide a user visible switch to use vhost or to just always use vhost
when it's available and it makes sense. Personally, I think the later
makes sense.
The more interesting invocation of vhost-net though is one where the
vhost-net device backs directly to a physical network card. In this
mode, vhost should get considerably better performance than the current
implementation. I don't know the syntax yet, but I think it's
reasonable to assume that it will look something like -net
tap,dev=eth0. The effect will be that eth0 is dedicated to the guest.
On most modern systems, there is a small number of network devices so
this model is not all that useful except when dealing with SR-IOV
adapters. In that case, each physical device can be exposed as many
virtual devices (VFs). There are a few restrictions here though. The
biggest is that currently, you can only change the number of VFs by
reloading a kernel module so it's really a parameter that must be set at
startup time.
I think there are a few ways libvirt could support vhost-net in this
second mode. The simplest would be to introduce a new tag similar to
<source network='br0'>. In fact, if you probed the device type for the
network parameter, you could probably do something like <source
network='eth0'> and have it Just Work.
Another model would be to have libvirt see an SR-IOV adapter as a
network pool whereas it handled all of the VF management. Considering
how inflexible SR-IOV is today, I'm not sure whether this is the best model.
Has anyone put any more thought into this problem or how this should be
modeled in libvirt? Michael, could you share your current thinking for
-net syntax?

[libvirt] [PATCH-for-4.2] hw/mips: Deprecate the r4k machine
by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé
The r4k machine was introduced in 2005 (6af0bf9c7) and its last
logical change was in 2005 (9542611a6). After we can count 164
maintenance commits (QEMU API changes) with the exception of
1 fix in 2015 (memory leak, commit 3ad9fd5a).
This machine was introduced as a proof of concept to run a MIPS
CPU. 2 years later, the Malta machine was add (commit 5856de80)
modeling a real platform.
Note also this machine has no specification except 5 lines in
the header of this file:
* emulates a simple machine with ISA-like bus.
* ISA IO space mapped to the 0x14000000 (PHYS) and
* ISA memory at the 0x10000000 (PHYS, 16Mb in size).
* All peripherial devices are attached to this "bus" with
* the standard PC ISA addresses.
It is time to deprecate this obsolete machine. Users are
recommended to use the Malta board, which hardware is well
documented.

[libvirt] [python] WIP-FYI: mypy annotations for libvirt-python
by Philipp Hahn
Hello,
Maybe you already have heads about mypy <http://mypy-lang.org/>, which
"is an experimental optional static type checker for Python that aims to
combine the benefits of dynamic (or "duck") typing and static typing".
I started to write a manual annotation file for the Python binding of
libvirt. I've attached my current version, so others can benefit from
it, too. It is far from complete, but it already helped my to find some
errors in my code.
(My latest version is also available at
<https://github.com/univention/typeshed/blob/libvirt/third_party/2and3/lib...>)
Long-term it probably would be better to teach the Python binding
"generator.py" to add the type information (PEP 484
<https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/>) directly into the generated
"libvirt.py" file, but that's for another day.
If someone else is interested in helping with that, please feel free to
get in contact.
Philipp

[libvirt] [PATCH v2 1/1] qemu: hide details of fake reboot
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy
If we use fake reboot then domain goes thru running->shutdown->running
state changes with shutdown state only for short period of time. At
least this is implementation details leaking into API. And also there is
one real case when this is not convinient. I'm doing a backup with the
help of temporary block snapshot (with the help of qemu's API which is
used in the newly created libvirt's backup API). If guest is shutdowned
I want to continue to backup so I don't kill the process and domain is
in shutdown state. Later when backup is finished I want to destroy qemu
process. So I check if it is in shutdowned state and destroy it if it
is. Now if instead of shutdown domain got fake reboot then I can destroy
process in the middle of fake reboot process.
After shutdown event we also get stop event and now as domain state is
running it will be transitioned to paused state and back to running
later. Though this is not critical for the described case I guess it is
better not to leak these details to user too. So let's leave domain in
running state on stop event if fake reboot is in process.
Reconnection code handles this patch without modification. It detects
that qemu is not running due to shutdown and then calls qemuProcessShutdownOrReboot
which reboots as fake reboot flag is set.

Changes from v1[1]:
- rebase on current master
- add comments
- use special flag to check if we should go paused or not*
- add notes about reconnection to commit message
* Using just fake reboot flag is not reliable. What if ACPI shutdown is
ignored by guest? Reboot flag will remain set and now domain state
will remain running on plain pause.

RFC: qemu: use uuid instead of name for misc filenames
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy
Hi, everyone.
I'm working on supporting domain renaming when it has snapshots which is not
supported now. And it strikes me things will be much simplier to manage on
renaming if we use uuid in filenames instead of domain names.
1. Renaming will only involve saving updated config.
The saving is atomic thanx to tmp file and rename(2) approach. In constast
current renaming on error paths can leave config with old or new name. Thus
on libvirt restart extra VM will appear.
And we don't need to rename autostart links, snapshot directories etc.
2. Renaming will be possible for running domains with no efforts.
We only need to pass uuid instead of name in '-name guest=...' command line.
3. Mgmt can stop using autogenerated names for domains.
I guess openstack for example uses names like instance-000002ff because we
have many limitations on domain renaming. And if these limitations are removed
then openstack can just use user supplied names for domains.
4. No issues with long domain names and filename length limit
If the above conversion makes sense I guess the good time to apply it is
on domain start (and rename to support renaming with snapshots).
I guess we can also have tool (some virsh command) for developers to generate
symlinks so one can access logs, configs etc by name instead of uuid.
