This is what all the driver refactoring I've done has been about
enabling.
We gain new daemons for each driver, for the primary virt drivers:
virtlibxld
virtlxcd
virtqemud
virtvboxd
virtvzd
And again for the secondary drivers
virtinterfaced
virtnetworkd
virtnodedevd
virtnwfilterd
virtsecretd
virtstoraged
Finally to support IP connectivity, and also the legacy lbivirtd UNIX
domain socket (for the old libvirt remote driver SSH tunnelling):
virtproxyd
The the sake of facilitating upgrades, the existing libvirtd still
exists and works the same way it always has.
You either run libvirtd, or you run the per-driver daemons, never both.
The remote driver will look to see whether libvirtd is running to figure
out whether to connect to libvirtd or the new per-driver daemons.
When auto-spawning daemons for nonroot users, we default to spawning the
per-driver daemons.
This can be controlled with a UR parameter "?mode=direct|legacy|auto",
where 'direct' means per-driver and 'legacy' means libvirtd (or indirect
via virtproxyd if that's running).
Still todo
- Add systemd unit files for the new daemons
- Make it possible to disable build of libvirtd, or of the per-driver
daemons so downstream vendors can decide which to ship
- Tuning of the daemon defaults for worker threads to better suit
the fact that we have per-driver daemons
- More work on RPM packaging to allow install of per-driver daemosn
without pulling in libvirtd too
- A bunch of stuff that doesn't occurr to me right now
- Identify & fix more bugs I've created here
