[libvirt] [PATCH] docs: fix network XML documentation
by Laine Stump 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

A few people have attempted to use the new forwarding modes with older versions of libvirt. The docs where the modes are described have always stated the minimum required libvirt version, but the examples at the end didn't, which I believe is what has caused the confusion. Similarly, the section on portgroups now has a version tag added at the beginning. I also noticed that there was no example of defining a <dns> hostname, so I added one, as well as making the domain name example more recognizable (by adding ".com" to the domain). --- docs/formatnetwork.html.in | 15 ++++++++++++--- 1 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/formatnetwork.html.in b/docs/formatnetwork.html.in index 99031d0..e06392b 100644 --- a/docs/formatnetwork.html.in +++ b/docs/formatnetwork.html.in @@ -58,7 +58,7 @@ <pre> ... <bridge name="virbr0" stp="on" delay="5"/> - <domain name="example"/> + <domain name="example.com"/> <forward mode="nat" dev="eth0"/> ...</pre> @@ -214,7 +214,7 @@ As mentioned above, a <code><forward></code> element can have multiple <code><interface></code> subelements, each one giving the name of a physical interface that can be used - for this network<span class="since">Since 0.9.4</span>: + for this network <span class="since">Since 0.9.4</span>: <pre> ... <forward mode='passthrough'> @@ -301,9 +301,11 @@ ...</pre> <p> + <span class="since">Since 0.9.4</span> A portgroup provides a method of easily putting guest connections to the network into different classes, with each - class potentially having a different level/type of service.

[libvirt] [PATCH] util: Make getaddrinfo failure nonfatal in virGetHostname
by Jiri Denemark 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

[libvirt] [PATCH v2 0/2] Xen: skip xenHypervisor version init in tests
by Philipp Hahn 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

Several tests fail when run as root on a Xen-dom0-system, since virInitialize() then succeeds to open /proc/xen/privcmd and returns the actual supported features instead of the faked one when calling xenHypervisorMakeCapabilitiesInternal(). Since Xen-3.3 supports additional features like "hap" and "viridian", the xencapstest fails. v2: Skip initialization of static version variables for Xen Hypervisor and use provided values for unit test cases.

[libvirt] [RFC PATCH v2 0/2] API to invoke S3/S4 on a host and also resume from within libvirt
by Srivatsa S. Bhat 14 Oct '11

14 Oct '11

This patch adds a new API to put a host to a suspended state (either Suspend-to-RAM or Suspend-to-Disk) and also resume the host back from within libvirt. This uses the RTC wakeup mechanism to set up a timer alarm before suspending the host, so that in-band resume is facilitated by the firing of the RTC alarm, which wakes up the host. The decision to use the RTC Wakeup mechanism to resume the host from sleep was taken in [1]. An initial API was discussed in [2]. Some design ideas for the asynchronous mechanism implementation was discussed in [3]. This patch is positioned to go in along with the patch that exports the host power management capabilities as XML, posted in [4]. v2: * Added an init function which finds out if S3/S4 is supported by the host, upon the first request to suspend/hibernate. * Added synchronization/locking to ensure that only one suspend operation is active at a time. v1: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-September/msg00830.html References: [1]. http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-August/msg00327.html [2]. http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-August/msg00248.html [3]. http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-September/msg00438.html [4]. http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-August/msg00324.html Srivatsa S.
