[libvirt] [PATCH v1 0/4] libxl: channels support

Hey, Channels have been on xen toolstack since Xen 4.5 and this small series adds support for it, including xenconfig conversion and appropriate tests. After this series it's possible to do this: (assuming correct configuration of qemu agent in the guest) $ cat domain.xml | grep -a1 channel | head -n 5 | tail -n 4 <channel type='unix'> <source mode='bind' path='/tmp/channel'/> <target type='xen' name='org.qemu.guest_agent.0'/> </channel> $ virsh create domain.xml $ echo '{"execute":"guest-network-get-interfaces"}' | socat stdio,ignoreeof unix-connect:/tmp/channel {"execute":"guest-network-get-interfaces"} {"return": [{"name": "lo", "ip-addresses": [{"ip-address-type": "ipv4", "ip-address": "127.0.0.1", "prefix": 8}, {"ip-address-type": "ipv6", "ip-address": "::1", "prefix": 128}], "hardware-address": "00:00:00:00:00:00"}, {"name": "eth0", "ip-addresses": [{"ip-address-type": "ipv4", "ip-address": "10.100.0.6", "prefix": 24}, {"ip-address-type": "ipv6", "ip-address": "fe80::216:3eff:fe40:88eb", "prefix": 64}], "hardware-address": "00:16:3e:40:88:eb"}, {"name": "sit0"}]} There is just one thing unclear: is source "path" meant to be auto-generated if it's not specified in the channel config? Additionally what does "state" signify for virtio case: is it that the guest agent is connected, or that the virtio serial is connected? Looking at the qemu driver on processSerialChangedEvent it sounds to me like it's about the serial state. I also have one other series that lets us share the qemu agent across both qemu and libxl drivers, with qemu-agent-command implemented. But it's still in an early stage. Any comments or feedback is appreciated :) Thanks, Joao Joao Martins (4): conf: add xen type for channels libxl: channels support xenconfig: channels conversion support xlconfigtest: add test for channel conversion docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 11 ++ src/conf/domain_conf.c | 18 +++- src/conf/domain_conf.h | 1 + src/libxl/libxl_conf.c | 81 ++++++++++++++ src/libxl/libxl_domain.c | 38 +++++++ src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 1 + src/xenconfig/xen_xl.c | 176 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-pty.cfg | 13 +++ tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-pty.xml | 33 ++++++ tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-unix.cfg | 13 +++ tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-unix.xml | 34 ++++++ tests/xlconfigtest.c | 4 + 12 files changed, 419 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-pty.cfg create mode 100644 tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-pty.xml create mode 100644 tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-unix.cfg create mode 100644 tests/xlconfigdata/test-channel-unix.xml -- 2.1.4
