vhost-user-blk bypasses the QEMU block layer, so NBD storage migration
at the QEMU level will not work for the vhost-user-blk disk.

[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] [PATCH-for-4.2] hw/mips: Deprecate the r4k machine
by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé
The r4k machine was introduced in 2005 (6af0bf9c7) and its last
logical change was in 2005 (9542611a6). After we can count 164
maintenance commits (QEMU API changes) with the exception of
1 fix in 2015 (memory leak, commit 3ad9fd5a).
This machine was introduced as a proof of concept to run a MIPS
CPU. 2 years later, the Malta machine was add (commit 5856de80)
modeling a real platform.
Note also this machine has no specification except 5 lines in
the header of this file:
* emulates a simple machine with ISA-like bus.
* ISA IO space mapped to the 0x14000000 (PHYS) and
* ISA memory at the 0x10000000 (PHYS, 16Mb in size).
* All peripherial devices are attached to this "bus" with
* the standard PC ISA addresses.
It is time to deprecate this obsolete machine. Users are
recommended to use the Malta board, which hardware is well
documented.

[libvirt] [python] WIP-FYI: mypy annotations for libvirt-python
by Philipp Hahn
Hello,
Maybe you already have heads about mypy <http://mypy-lang.org/>, which
"is an experimental optional static type checker for Python that aims to
combine the benefits of dynamic (or "duck") typing and static typing".
I started to write a manual annotation file for the Python binding of
libvirt. I've attached my current version, so others can benefit from
it, too. It is far from complete, but it already helped my to find some
errors in my code.
(My latest version is also available at
<https://github.com/univention/typeshed/blob/libvirt/third_party/2and3/lib...>)
Long-term it probably would be better to teach the Python binding
"generator.py" to add the type information (PEP 484
<https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0484/>) directly into the generated
"libvirt.py" file, but that's for another day.
If someone else is interested in helping with that, please feel free to
get in contact.
Philipp

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] qemu: support -overcommit cpu-pm=on|off
by Menno Lageman
QEMU introduced a CPU power management feature with commit 6f131f13e68d
("kvm: support -overcommit cpu-pm=on|off").
With this flag, kvm allows guest to control host CPU power state. This
increases latency for other processes using same host CPU in an
unpredictable way, but if decreases idle entry/exit times for the
running VCPU, so to use it QEMU needs a hint about whether host CPU is
overcommitted, hence the flag name.
This patch series adds a new kvm feature 'cpu-pm' for controlling
"-overcommit cpu-pm=[on|off]"
<features>
<kvm>
<cpu-pm state='on'/>
</kvm>
</features>

[libvirt] [PATCH v4 0/2] introduction of migration_version attribute for VFIO live migration
by Yan Zhao
This patchset introduces a migration_version attribute under sysfs of VFIO
Mediated devices.
This migration_version attribute is used to check migration compatibility
between two mdev devices of the same mdev type.
Patch 1 defines migration_version attribute in
Documentation/vfio-mediated-device.txt
Patch 2 uses GVT as an example to show how to expose migration_version
attribute and check migration compatibility in vendor driver.
v4:
1. fixed indentation/spell errors, reworded several error messages
2. added a missing memory free for error handling in patch 2
v3:
1. renamed version to migration_version
2. let errno to be freely defined by vendor driver
3. let checking mdev_type be prerequisite of migration compatibility check
4. reworded most part of patch 1
5. print detailed error log in patch 2 and generate migration_version
string at init time
v2:
1. renamed patched 1
2. made definition of device version string completely private to vendor
driver
3. reverted changes to sample mdev drivers
4. described intent and usage of version attribute more clearly.
