[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix PCI host reattach on domain detach.
by Chris Lalancette 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Similar to the race fixed by be34c3c7efbb1ea8999530f98b99c5dde3793f84, make sure to wait around for KVM to release the resources from a hot-detached PCI device before attempting to rebind that device to the host driver.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Look in /usr/libexec for the qemu-kvm binary.
by Chris Lalancette 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

On RHEL-5 the qemu-kvm binary is located in /usr/libexec. To reduce confusion for people trying to run upstream libvirt on RHEL-5 machines, make the qemu driver look in /usr/libexec for the qemu-kvm binary. To make this work, I modified virFindFileInPath to handle an absolute path correctly. I also ran into an issue where NULL was sometimes being passed for the file parameter to virFindFileInPath; it didn't crash prior to this patch since it was building paths like /usr/bin/(null). This is non-standard behavior, though, so I added a NULL check at the beginning.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Clarify lack of generated IDE -device string in QEMU driver
by Matthew Booth 01 Feb '10

[libvirt] Bugfix for RHEL 5.4+ ?? -- Re: Synchronous commands block virsh?
by Andreas Kurz 01 Feb '10

01 Feb '10

Hi list, I found this thread from December: http://www.mail-archive.com/libvir-list@redhat.com/msg18595.htm .... that starting with version 0.7.4 libvirtd will no longer block other API calls, which would be extremely useful in HA clusters in combination with live migration. Will this fix find its way into RHEL 5? Regards, Andreas
