[libvirt] [PATCH] maint: avoid locale-sensitivity in string case comparisons
by Eric Blake 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

strcase{cmp/str} have the drawback of being sensitive to the global locale; this is unacceptable in a library setting. Prefer a hard-coded C locale alternative for all but virsh, which is user facing and where the global locale isn't changing externally. * .gnulib: Update to latest, for c-strcasestr change. * bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Drop strcasestr, add c-strcase and c-strcasestr. * cfg.mk (sc_avoid_strcase): New rule. (exclude_file_name_regexp--sc_avoid_strcase): New exception. * src/internal.h (STRCASEEQ, STRCASENEQ, STRCASEEQLEN) (STRCASENEQLEN): Adjust offenders. * src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c (qemuMonitorTextEjectMedia): Likewise. * tools/virsh.c (namesorter): Document exception. --- Inspired by today's earlier patch that started using strcasester.

[libvirt] [RFC] Add flag for virsh undefine to remove/wipe the disk devices
by Osier Yang 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

Hi, All I'm thinking to introduce a new flag (something like --remove-disks, --wipe-disks) for "virsh undefine", so that the user can choose whether to remove/wipe the disk devices or not, have seen this requirement in many places, @libvirt-users, public #virt, and also we have a bug of this function. So, IMHO this is a reasonable requirement, following is the rough thoughts: 1) General idea. As we don't have a API which can get all the disk devices of a domain, perhaps need to write functions to parse domain xml to extract the disks' path (this is annoyed, but seems don't other way), and then lookup them by storage volume API (virStorageVolLookupByPath), and then can remove or wipe the volume by (virStorageVolDelete/virStorageVolWipe). And for the disk path which doesn't belong to any storage pool, simply remove it by "unlink()"? 2) Which type of devices can not be removed/wiped. * Can't delete/wipe ISCSI/SCSI vol. * Vol doesn't exists (which will throw an warning when do virStorageVolLookupByPath). * Have no write permission on the parent directory of the disk path. * Can't delete/wipe the disk device which is passthrough'ed from host, (e.g. /dev/sr0 as a CDROM device for guest) * The storage pool which the disk device belongs to as a vol is marked as "share" * The storage pool which the disk device belongs as a vol is readonly * can't delete disk device of network type. * Any others? For these situations, we need to do checking and throw straightforward warnings to tell user why it can't be removed/wiped. Any idea is welcomed. Thanks. CC'ed Eric, as I saw you talked about this somewhere. (#virt?), :-) Regards Osier

[libvirt] [libvirt-php][PATCH] Fix virConnectClose failed issue on list_domains

[libvirt] Can't get connection to libvirt if one of the guests' monitor is occupied by other app
by Osier Yang 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

Hi, As $subject, e.g. the monitor is being used by netcat. Is it expected? Should we only skip to reconnect the domain monitor which is being locked by other app with a timeout specified on "qemuMonitorOpenUnix" (it blocks when trying to connect to the unix socket)? so that it can get a connection, and could manage other domains. How to produce: 1) # service libvirtd stop 2) # nc -U /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/$guest.monitor 3) # virsh (hangs forever if nc process is not killed) Regards Osier

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Ignore libvirt debug messages in qemu log
by Jiri Denemark 31 Mar '11

31 Mar '11

qemu driver uses a 4K buffer for reading qemu log file. This is enough when only qemu's output is present in the log file. However, when debugging messages are turned on, intermediate libvirt process fills the log with a bunch of debugging messages before it executes qemu binary. In such a case the buffer may become too small. However, we are not really interested in libvirt messages so they can be filtered out from the buffer. --- src/qemu/qemu_process.c | 47 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- 1 files changed, 37 insertions(+), 10 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_process.c b/src/qemu/qemu_process.c index e31e1b4..bc117a4 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_process.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_process.c @@ -762,11 +762,21 @@ qemuProcessReadLogOutput(virDomainObjPtr vm, { int retries = (timeout*10); int got = 0; + char *debug = NULL; + int ret = -1; + char *filter_next = buf; + buf[0] = '\0'; + if (virAsprintf(&debug, ": %d: debug : ", vm->pid) < 0) { + virReportOOMError(); + return -1; + } + while (retries) { - ssize_t func_ret, ret; + ssize_t func_ret, bytes; int isdead = 0; + char *eol; func_ret = func(vm, buf, fd); @@ -775,32 +785,46 @@ qemuProcessReadLogOutput(virDomainObjPtr vm, /* Any failures should be detected before we read the log, so we * always have something useful to report on failure. */ - ret = saferead(fd, buf+got, buflen-got-1); - if (ret < 0) { + bytes = saferead(fd, buf+got, buflen-got-1); + if (bytes < 0) { virReportSystemError(errno, _("Failure while reading %s log output"), what); - return -1; + goto cleanup; } - got += ret; + got += bytes; buf[got] = '\0'; + + /* Filter out debug messages from intermediate libvirt process */ + while ((eol = strchr(filter_next, '\n'))) { + char *p = strstr(filter_next, debug); + if (p && p < eol) { + memmove(filter_next, eol + 1, got - (eol - buf)); + got -= eol + 1 - filter_next; + } else { + filter_next = eol + 1; + } + } + if (got == buflen-1) { qemuReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("Out of space while reading %s log output: %s"), what, buf); - return -1; + goto cleanup; } if (isdead) { qemuReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("Process exited while reading %s log output: %s"), what, buf); - return -1; + goto cleanup; } - if (func_ret <= 0) - return func_ret; + if (func_ret <= 0) { + ret = func_ret; + goto cleanup; + } usleep(100*1000); retries--; @@ -809,7 +833,10 @@ qemuProcessReadLogOutput(virDomainObjPtr vm, qemuReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("Timed out while reading %s log output: %s"), what, buf); - return -1; + +cleanup: + VIR_FREE(debug); + return ret; } -- 1.7.4.1

[libvirt] How to get the IP address of a Domain?
by 徐滕 30 Mar '11

30 Mar '11

HI,all: I'm new to libvirt, and have some questions about How to get the IP address of a Domain? I searched the old mails int the mail-list ,found one way to do this,it is first get the mac address of the Domain,then used some sniffer or arp tools to fetch the IP address , but: Q1: Is there any APIs of libvirt to get the domain's IP address directly? If does not exist now , have any plan to add this api or some extra tools to do this ,just like the vm-tools on VMware ESX? Q2: How to get the domain's mac? I download the virt-manager src, searching it's source to find how to do this : in details.py , this line seems to get the mac address: in function update_hwlist(hwtype, info, name, icon_name): Line 2475 for net in self.vm.get_network_devices(): mac = net.macaddr update_hwlist(HW_LIST_TYPE_NIC, net, "NIC %s" % mac[-9:], "network-idle") then ,I looked into domains.py, in function get_network_devices(): def get_network_devices(self, refresh_if_necc=True): return self._build_device_list("interface", refresh_if_necc) next, go to function _build_device_list() def _build_device_list(self, device_type, refresh_if_necc=True, inactive=False): guest = self._get_guest(refresh_if_necc=refresh_if_necc, inactive=inactive) devs = guest.get_devices(device_type) count = 0 for dev in devs: dev.vmmindex = count count += 1 return devs finally ,in funciton _get_guest(self, inactive=False, refresh_if_necc=True) def _get_guest(self, inactive=False, refresh_if_necc=True): raise NotImplementedError() this puzzled me , only raise a exception NotImplentedError(),but not deal with it . How to get the mac address? Sorry ,I 'm new to Python either... Really appreciate for your help! wade
