[libvirt] Supporting vhost-net and macvtap in libvirt for QEMU
by Anthony Liguori
Disclaimer: I am neither an SR-IOV nor a vhost-net expert, but I've CC'd
people that are who can throw tomatoes at me for getting bits wrong :-)
I wanted to start a discussion about supporting vhost-net in libvirt.
vhost-net has not yet been merged into qemu but I expect it will be soon
so it's a good time to start this discussion.
There are two modes worth supporting for vhost-net in libvirt. The
first mode is where vhost-net backs to a tun/tap device. This is
behaves in very much the same way that -net tap behaves in qemu today.
Basically, the difference is that the virtio backend is in the kernel
instead of in qemu so there should be some performance improvement.
Current, libvirt invokes qemu with -net tap,fd=X where X is an already
open fd to a tun/tap device. I suspect that after we merge vhost-net,
libvirt could support vhost-net in this mode by just doing -net
vhost,fd=X. I think the only real question for libvirt is whether to
provide a user visible switch to use vhost or to just always use vhost
when it's available and it makes sense. Personally, I think the later
makes sense.
The more interesting invocation of vhost-net though is one where the
vhost-net device backs directly to a physical network card. In this
mode, vhost should get considerably better performance than the current
implementation. I don't know the syntax yet, but I think it's
reasonable to assume that it will look something like -net
tap,dev=eth0. The effect will be that eth0 is dedicated to the guest.
On most modern systems, there is a small number of network devices so
this model is not all that useful except when dealing with SR-IOV
adapters. In that case, each physical device can be exposed as many
virtual devices (VFs). There are a few restrictions here though. The
biggest is that currently, you can only change the number of VFs by
reloading a kernel module so it's really a parameter that must be set at
startup time.
I think there are a few ways libvirt could support vhost-net in this
second mode. The simplest would be to introduce a new tag similar to
<source network='br0'>. In fact, if you probed the device type for the
network parameter, you could probably do something like <source
network='eth0'> and have it Just Work.
Another model would be to have libvirt see an SR-IOV adapter as a
network pool whereas it handled all of the VF management. Considering
how inflexible SR-IOV is today, I'm not sure whether this is the best model.
Has anyone put any more thought into this problem or how this should be
modeled in libvirt? Michael, could you share your current thinking for
-net syntax?

[libvirt] JNA Error Callback could cause core dump.
by Benjamin Wang (gendwang)
Hi,
When I changed code as following:
public class Connect {
// Load the native part
static {
Libvirt.INSTANCE.virInitialize();
try {
ErrorHandler.processError(Libvirt.INSTANCE);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
+ Libvirt.INSTANCE.virSetErrorFunc(null, new ErrorCallback());
}
The server will generate the following core dump:
Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.
#0 0x0000003f9b030265 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6
(gdb) where
#0 0x0000003f9b030265 in raise () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#1 0x0000003f9b031d10 in abort () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#2 0x0000003f9b06a84b in __libc_message () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#3 0x0000003f9b07230f in _int_free () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#4 0x0000003f9b07276b in free () from /lib64/libc.so.6
#5 0x00002aaaacf46868 in ?? ()
#6 0x0000000000000000 in ?? ()
The problem was caused that when JNA call setErrorFunc, it will create ErrorCallback object. But when GC is executed, the object is GCed. But even I change code as following.
When GC is excuted, the callback object will be moved. Then C can't find this object. Both of scenarios will cause core dump. It seems that JNA mustn't provide ErrorCallback Class,
Because nobody can use this.
Please correct me.
public class Connect {
+ private static final ErrorCallback callback = new ErrorCallback();
// Load the native part
static {
Libvirt.INSTANCE.virInitialize();
try {
ErrorHandler.processError(Libvirt.INSTANCE);
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
+ Libvirt.INSTANCE.virSetErrorFunc(null, callback);
}

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] qemu: Rework CD/DVD changing
by Michal Privoznik
The first patch is bare bug fix (without any bug reported though).
The second is again a bug fix, but not so easy to spot. Basically, when we
change a media, we should issue 'eject' first, then wait until the tray gets
open, after which we can finally issue 'change' command. Even for bare 'eject'
we ought to check status, shouldn't we?

[libvirt] [PATCH] Update to COPYING.LIB to latest LGPLv2.1 copy
by Christophe Fergeau
The text version
of LGPLv2.1 available at
http://www.gnu.org/licenses/old-licenses/lgpl-2.1.txt is slightly
different from COPYING.LIB:
- several paragraphs were rewrapped
- the FSF address has changed, so the license has been changed to
indicate the newer address
I've checked that there are no changes in the license text apart from
the updated address, which is what I want to fix with this commit.

[libvirt] Bug in DOMINFO command when balloon driver is used on a vm with more then 8 GB of MaxMemory ?
by fc lists
Hi ,
I have been banging my head on this for the last 8 hours ... and i really
need to know if is really a bug or i am doing something wrong.
Description of the problem:
When the virsh setmem command is used to inflate the balloon on a VM to
which 8GB of MaxMemory or more are allocated then the information reported
with virsh dominfo , virsh dumpxml after the balloon change has been
performed are wrong.
The actual balloon is inflated correctly though and that is verifiable both
in the vm itself and through the "virsh dommemstat" commands.
I *think* that is because the dommestat command will perform a proper query
to find out the amount of ram currently used (and i can see that in the
logs when issuing a dommestat command)

buf={"execute":"query-balloon","id":"libvirt-9"}
but no entries are shown in the log for qemu-monitor when virsh dominfo is
run, how does dominfo gather those informations?
I am going to raise a ticket on RED HAT bugzilla for this but was hoping to
get some feedback here first to avoid raising a ticket for something that
maybe i just misunderstood.
Platform is Centos 6.4 (problem was present in 6.3 as well starting
with libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6.3.7 )
The patch that actually is causing the problem is patch number 398 in the
src rpm for libvirt-0.9.10-21.el6.3.7 :
libvirt-Wire-up-handling-for-QMP-s-BALLOON_EVENT.patch (
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=884713)
And i verified it by removing the patch and recompiling the rpm , that
indeed worked perfectly after that.
The problem exists in every version up to the latest (that is what i am
running now) but now the patch is part of the libvirt source code in itself
and not a patch in the rpm anymore.
