[libvirt] [PATCHv2] qemu: Do fake auto-allocation of ports when generating native command
by Peter Krempa 06 May '13

06 May '13

When attempting to generate the native command line from an XML file that uses graphics port auto allocation, the generated commandline wouldn't be valid. This patch adds fake autoallocation of ports as done when starting the actual machine. --- Notes: Version 2: - rebased after context-conflict with 11fc1beab6e018a88182f80056d35217c150b3de src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 52 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 52 insertions(+) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c index 9492850..45fcf05 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_driver.c @@ -5274,6 +5274,58 @@ static char *qemuConnectDomainXMLToNative(virConnectPtr conn, if (qemuDomainAssignAddresses(def, qemuCaps, NULL) < 0) goto cleanup; + /* do fake auto-alloc of graphics ports, if such config is used */ + for (i = 0 ; i < def->ngraphics; ++i) { + virDomainGraphicsDefPtr graphics = def->graphics[i]; + if (graphics->type == VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_TYPE_VNC && + !graphics->data.vnc.socket && graphics->data.vnc.autoport) { + graphics->data.vnc.port = 5900; + } else if (graphics->type == VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_TYPE_SPICE) { + int j; + bool needTLSPort = false; + bool needPort = false; + int defaultMode = graphics->data.spice.defaultMode; + + if (graphics->data.spice.autoport) { + /* check if tlsPort or port need allocation */ + for (j = 0 ; j < VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_LAST ; j++) { + switch (graphics->data.spice.channels[j]) { + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_SECURE: + needTLSPort = true; + break; + + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_INSECURE: + needPort = true; + break; + + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_ANY: + switch (defaultMode) { + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_SECURE: + needTLSPort = true; + break; + + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_INSECURE: + needPort = true; + break; + + case VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_SPICE_CHANNEL_MODE_ANY: + needTLSPort = true; + needPort = true; + break; + } + break; + } + } + } + + if (needPort || graphics->data.spice.port == -1) + graphics->data.spice.port = 5901; + + if (needTLSPort || graphics->data.spice.tlsPort == -1) + graphics->data.spice.tlsPort = 5902; + } + } + if (!(cmd = qemuBuildCommandLine(conn, driver, def, &monConfig, monitor_json, qemuCaps, NULL, -1, NULL, VIR_NETDEV_VPORT_PROFILE_OP_NO_OP))) -- 1.8.2.1

[libvirt] Static Route for IPv6
by Gene Czarcinski 06 May '13

06 May '13

In the process of adding the code to support static routes for IPv4 and IPv6, I hit a problem when I tried to specify a static route for ::/0 (that is "default") ... the error was "file exists." and the problem is that this is a feature and not a bug. Here is the comment from the bugzilla report which explains things: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- yeah, this isn't a bug as far as I can see. The magic that your looking for is in fib6_add_rt2node(). When adding a new route, we search for duplicate routes, and should we find one, we compare them to ensure that when the ipv6 stack does a route lookup, they have some way to select which route should be used. To do that they use the metric/preference number (I admit that use of the term metric in the iproute2 tool is a bit misleading, but if you check the ip-route(8) man page, you'll see its a synonym for preference). At any rate, since you already have a default gateway (which the stack sees as a duplicate for the one your adding), and the existing route has the same metric/preference as the one you are adding, you get the EXIST error. Ways to work around this: 1) Use the src option in the ip route add command to differentiate and prevent the existing default gw from being used (might be useful if you want different virt guests to use different default gw). 2) instead of using ip route add, use ip route replace, which will overwrite the existing default gw. 3) Use a different metric value than the existing default gw. Both routes will be added, but only the higest priority route will be used. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As I understand the situation now, the error I got for ::/0 was valid and should not be ignored or overriden by default. However, there is bound to be someone who has a valid reason to do this so there needs to be a way to do it. Proposal: Add a new attribute metric to the <route> subelement. The default for metric will be metric='1' so that it will be the same as it is now. However, the use will be able to specify an arbitrary unsigned 32 bit number. There are two other suggestions up there. Any comments? When I started this, my goal was simply to get some static routes for "regular" networks so that the virtualization host would know where to route packets. I am not sure that it is a good idea that folks fiddle with default routes in libvirt virtual-network definitions but I am sure that someone, sometime will have a valid reason to do so. BTW, just because some static route variation is not implemented as part of the libvirt definition does not mean that a user cannot issue the ip-route-add command manually. Gene

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] spec file fixups
by Eric Blake 06 May '13

[libvirt] [PATCH] build: always include libvirt_lxc.syms in tarball
by Eric Blake 06 May '13

06 May '13

On a mingw build, 'make distcheck' fails with: GEN libvirt_qemu.def make[3]: *** No rule to make target `../../src/libvirt_lxc.syms', needed by `libvirt_lxc.def'. Stop. I traced it to a missing entry in EXTRA_DIST. But rather than keep the entire list in sync, it is easier to list the three syms files that drive .so files directly, and then reuse existing makefile variables for the remaining files (that is, I validated that all remaining files are added to SYM_FILES, possibly via USED_SYM_FILES, according to makefile conditionals). * src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Ensure all syms files are shipped.

[libvirt] [PATCH qom-cpu 0/9] x86: feature words array (v11) + "feature-words" property
by Eduardo Habkost 06 May '13

06 May '13

This series includes the previous "replace cpuid_*features fields with a feature word array" series. The first 4 patches already have a Reviewed-by from Igor, they correspond to v10 plus a small indent fix requested by him. As the cpuid_*features series was holding my "feature-words"/"filtered-features" series (previously sent as RFC), I am now sending both as a single series, to try to get "feature-words"/"filtered-features" some attention and try to get it included in 1.5. The "feature-words"/"filtered-features" mechanism is very important for libvirt, to allow it to ensure the guest is getting the required set of CPU features, as configured by the user. Eduardo Habkost (9): target-i386: cleanup: Group together level, xlevel, xlevel2 fields target-i386/kvm.c: Code formatting changes target-i386/cpu.c: Break lines so they don't get too long target-i386: Replace cpuid_*features fields with a feature word array target-i386: Add ECX information to FeatureWordInfo target-i386: Add "feature-words" property target-i386: Use FeatureWord loop on filter_features_for_kvm() target-i386: Introduce X86CPU.filtered_features field target-i386: Add "filtered-features" property to X86CPU .gitignore | 2 + Makefile.objs | 7 +- bsd-user/elfload.c | 2 +- bsd-user/main.c | 4 +- hw/i386/kvm/clock.c | 2 +- linux-user/elfload.c | 2 +- linux-user/main.c | 4 +- qapi-schema.json | 31 +++ target-i386/cpu-qom.h | 3 + target-i386/cpu.c | 501 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- target-i386/cpu.h | 15 +- target-i386/helper.c | 4 +- target-i386/kvm.c | 5 +- target-i386/misc_helper.c | 14 +- target-i386/translate.c | 10 +- 15 files changed, 385 insertions(+), 221 deletions(-) -- 1.8.1.4

[libvirt] IPv6 iscsi targets
by Ján Tomko 06 May '13

06 May '13

Hello. Before running iscsiadm, libvirt translates the source host to an IP address for the --portal option. However, it only resolves to IPv4 and only uses the first address. iscsiadm allows a hostname to be specified [1][2], but specifying a hostname instead of the address doesn't work if the hostname translates to an unreachable IPv6 address first. Would it be reasonable to go through all the addresses returned by getaddrinfo() in libvirt, try to connect() to it and pass the address to iscsiadm when the connection succeeds? Or we should just pass the hostname and make iscsiadm deal with it? Jan [1] https://github.com/mikechristie/open-iscsi/commit/4d045cd [2] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=624437

The first round. For some reasons, I am still unable to hotplug any king of chardev. For instance: <console type='pty'> <source path='/dev/pts/4'/> <target port='0'/> </console> Doesn't work.

[libvirt] [libvirt-glib 0/3] gconfig: Add classes/methods for snapshot configuration
by Christophe Fergeau 05 May '13

05 May '13

Hey, This patch series adds the needed setters/getters to libvirt-gconfig to be able to generate the libvirt XML described at http://libvirt.org/formatsnapshot.html One thing of note is gvir_config_domain_snapshot_get_creation_time() which returns a GDateTime, which was only added in glib 2.26 while libvirt-glib depends on glib 2.22. Alternatively, we can return a time_t instead. Christophe
