[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Introduce 16550A serial console model
by Andrea Bolognani 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

None of the existing models is suitable for use with RISC-V virt guests, and we don't want information about the serial console to be missing from the XML. The name is based on comments in qemu/hw/riscv/virt.c: RISC-V machine with 16550a UART and VirtIO MMIO and in qemu/hw/char/serial.c: QEMU 16550A UART emulation along with the output of dmesg in the guest: Serial: 8250/16550 driver, 4 ports, IRQ sharing disabled 10000000.uart: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x10000000 (irq = 13, base_baud= 230400) is a 16550A Signed-off-by: Andrea Bolognani <abologna(a)redhat.com> --- CC'ing Rich mostly so that he can double-check the name choice is sensible. docs/formatdomain.html.in | 12 +++++----- docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 1 + src/conf/domain_conf.c | 1 + src/conf/domain_conf.h | 1 + src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 12 ++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 27 ++++++++++++++++------- tests/qemuxml2xmloutdata/riscv64-virt.xml | 4 +++- 7 files changed, 44 insertions(+), 14 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/formatdomain.html.in b/docs/formatdomain.html.in index 0cbf570a13..eb619a1656 100644 --- a/docs/formatdomain.html.in +++ b/docs/formatdomain.html.in @@ -7011,7 +7011,8 @@ qemu-kvm -net nic,model=? /dev/null is available) and <code>pci-serial</code> (usable whenever PCI support is available);

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Add more defaults for RISC-V virt guests
by Andrea Bolognani 28 Aug '18

We would have used virtio for networking anyway, but it's better to be explicit; for graphics, none of the existing models work right now but virtio is the only one which has a non-PCI variant, so it's as good a default as any.

[libvirt] [PATCH v5 0/3] vsh: Introduce new API for printing tables
by Simon Kobyda 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

Created new API for priting tables, mainly to solve alignment problems. Implemented these test to virsh list. In the future, API may be everywhere in virsh and virt-admin. Also wrote basic tests for the new API, and corrected tests in virshtest which are influenced by implementation of the API in virsh list. Changes in v5: - cleanup and merged code for calculating zero-width, nonprintable and combined character. - replaced virBufferAddStr with virBufferAddChar in some places - in tests moved code for setting correct locale - fixed few leaks and unitialized values Changes in v4: - fixed width calculation for zero-width, nonprintable and combined character. (pulled some code from linux-util) - added tests for cases mentioned above - changed usage of vshControl variables. From now on PrintToStdout calls PrintToString and then prints returned string to stdout Changes in v3: - changed encoding of 3/3 patch, otherwise it cannot be applied Changes in v2: - added tests - fixed alignment for unicode character which span more spaces - moved ncolumns check to vshTableRowAppend - changed arguments for functions vshTablePrint, vshTablePrintToStdout, vshTablePrintToString Simon Kobyda (3): vsh: Add API for printing tables. virsh: Implement new table API for virsh list vsh: Added tests tests/Makefile.am | 8 + tests/virshtest.c | 14 +- tests/vshtabletest.c | 377 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tools/Makefile.am | 4 +- tools/virsh-domain-monitor.c | 43 ++-- tools/vsh-table.c | 449 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ tools/vsh-table.h | 42 ++++ 7 files changed, 910 insertions(+), 27 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/vshtabletest.c create mode 100644 tools/vsh-table.c create mode 100644 tools/vsh-table.h -- 2.17.1

[libvirt] question about job handling across migration protocol phases
by Jim Fehlig 28 Aug '18

28 Aug '18

While investigating a bug [1] found by Xen's osstest I realized I don't quite understand how to handle modify jobs (e.g. BeginJob/EndJob) on virDomainObj across the various phases of V3 migration protocol. E.g. on the src host the Begin, Perform, and Confirm phases are performed. Should a modify job start (BeginJob) in the Begin phase and stop (EndJob) in the Confirm phase? Or should each phase, if necessary, do BeginJob/EndJob? Same question for dst host. IMO the job should be held across the phases on each host, preventing any modifications during the overall migration process. Although I do worry about orphaned jobs, e.g. a missed EndJob caused by some obscure error in the migration machinery.
