PATCH v2: Implement NFS Protocol
by Ryan Gahagan 08 Jan '21

08 Jan '21

Per Issue 90[1], QEMU supports using an NFS disk but Libvirt had no support for attaching a disk of this type. This patch series adds in this capability as well as the tests necessary to make sure it works correctly. The changes in this second version over the previous patch series for this issue primarily address feedback. Documentation was updated and the XML <nfs> element has been renamed as an <identity> element. The code for checking user XML for an NFS protocol has been relocated to the validation method and other pieces of code were refactored per suggestion. Tests have been altered to reflect the new XML element and the fact that NFS does not allow hosts to have a port. References: [1]: https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/90

[PATCH 0/2] fix re-attach of bridge device for <interface type='bridge'>
by Laine Stump 08 Jan '21

08 Jan '21

For a long time I thought this worked, but during discussion in a bugzilla report one day I realized it only worked properly for <interface type='network'> - we're not even trying to reattach bridges during libvirtd restart for type='bridge' (i.e. no associated libvirt network). These two patches together fix that problem.

[PATCH] network: Introduce mutex for bridge name generation
by Michal Privoznik 08 Jan '21

08 Jan '21

When defining/creating a network the bridge name may be filled in automatically by libvirt (if none provided in the input XML or the one provided is a pattern, e.g. "virbr%d"). During the bridge name generation process a candidate name is generated which is then checked with the rest of already defined/running networks for collisions. Problem is, that there is no mutex guarding this critical section and thus if two threads line up so that they both generate the same candidate they won't find any collision and the same name is then stored.
