[libvirt] virNodeDevice APIs and VFIO
by Laine Stump 25 Apr '13

25 Apr '13

Yesterday for the first time I consciously noticed the virNodeDeviceDettach and virNodeDeviceReAttach APIs, and found that they are hardcoded to bind to/unbind from the pci-stub driver for qemu, and the "pciback" driver for Xen. If we want these APIs to be useful for VFIO, they will need to bind to the vfio driver instead, but there is currently no method in those APIs to specify which driver to bind to. I guess we could do this with new virNodeDeviceDetachFlags() and virNodeDeviceReAttachFlags() APIs which have a flag to indicate vfio, but before going to that trouble I'd like to know if these APIs are actually used or if they are deprecated (they don't seem to be of any use if the hostdev devices you're assigning have "managed='yes'" - as far as I can see, setting managed='yes' just makes the bind/unbind from the stub driver an automatic part of assigning/un-assigning the device to a guest). (Beyond that, this would be exposing a lower level of detail in the APIs than the original functions, and I'm not sure if it's appropriate - the choice of stub driver was previously hidden in each hypervisor driver).

[libvirt] [PATCH] util: Error out if the numa nodeset is out of range

Currently, if there has been an error in building command line process after virtual interfaces has been created, the flow jumps to 'error' label, where virDomainConfNWFilterTeardown() is called.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/6] Cleanup of internal API naming conventions
by Daniel P. Berrange 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

The naming conventions used for APIs in both src/driver.h and src/remote/remote_protocol.x should follow the public API naming, but there are a great many violations of this. This series fixes them all, and adds some tests which will help prevent regressions.

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Generate agent socket path if missing

[libvirt] Using leases with virtlockd
by Jim Fehlig 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

Nearly a question for the users list, but I might be encountering a bug too. I'm using virtlockd with 'auto_disk_leases = 0' and struggle with the correct configuration for a lease in the domXML. Using <lease> <lockspace>test-ls</lockspace> <key>test-lock</key> <target path='/var/lib/libvirt/lockd'/> </lease> results in the following error when starting the domain internal error Lockspace for path /var/lib/libvirt/lockd/test-ls It appears the path attribute + lockspace are used as the Lockspace for this lease. But I'm not sure what "Lockspace" means in this context. Is it a directory? A file? I assume the latter since it is just flock()ed when the domain is started, right? I'll be happy to provide patches to fix any bugs that might exist here (docs included), but need understand the correct configuration of leases with virtlockd first :). BTW, nice piece of work Daniel! Regards, Jim

[libvirt] [PATCH] Use camelCase for XML attribute numQueues
by Martin Kletzander 24 Apr '13

24 Apr '13

In commit d4bf0a9, we used num_queues for an attribute in the XML, but the consensus is that we use camelCase for that. Since there was no release yet (the above commit describes as v1.0.4-65-gd4bf0a9), we still have time to change it.
