[libvirt] [PATCH 00/18] qemu: virtio-{non-}transitional support
by Cole Robinson 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

This series adds support for virtio-transitional and virtio-non-transitional qemu devices. qemu patches, queued for qemu 4.0.0: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-12/msg00923.html Previous libvirt discussion around this: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-August/msg01073.html Previous incomplete RFC here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-January/msg00346.html Long story short we need to expose these options so apps have a usable way to support rhel6 + virtio + q35. This series exposes the new devices as model= values. This required adding new model= attributes for several devices. Here's the breakdown. 'standard names' here means the model names virtio, virtio-transitional, and virtio-non-transitional * Simply extended: virtio-rng: extend existing <rng model=X> to handle standard names vhost-vsock: extend existing <vsock model=X> to handle standard names virtio-memballoon: extend existings <memballoon model=X> to handle standard names virtio-net: extend existing qemu <model type=X> handling to support standard names * Extended with caveats: virtio-serial: extend <controller type='virtio-serial'> to handle existing model=X attribute, with standard names virtio-scsi: extend <controller type='scsi' model=X> to handle the additional names virtio-transitional and virtio-non-transitional. model= already supports virtio-scsi here which is a departure from just model='virtio' which most others use, but I chose to not extend that pattern and stick with the names the other devices are using vhost-scsi: extend <hostdev model=X> handling for the protocol=vhost case, to accept standard names. I stuck with standard names over using vhost-transitional or similar, for consistency with other devices. * New XML elements virtio-blk: add new <disk model=X/> attribute with standard names virtio-fs: add new <filesystem model=X> attribute with standard names virtio-input-host: add new <input model=X> attribute with standard names At the end is an extension to domaincapabilities to report the disk bus model values. Until domaincapabilities is fully fleshed out with support for all the above devices, apps can use that disk model check to assume transitional devices are available for all of the above.

While it doesn't have any real impact on end users generally I took that to mean 'you are doing something that is unsupported'.

[libvirt] [PATCH] dosc: schema: fix usb source address device attribute format
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

Device attribute does not have dotted "portAddr" format. Instead it has single number format described but "usbAddr" which corresponds to device parsing code in virDomainHostdevSubsysUSBDefParseXML. Looks like [1] mistakenly changed device format for hostdev devices. And [2] copy-n-paste this for hostdev network interfaces.

[libvirt] running Libvirt from source code, IPC_LOCK and VFIO
by Daniel Henrique Barboza 06 Feb '19

06 Feb '19

Hi, I'm facing a strange behavior when running Libvirt from source code, latest upstream, on an Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS Power 9 server. My QEMU guest - which is using VFIO and GPU passthrough - breaks on boot when trying to allocate a DMA window inside KVM. Debugging the code, I've found out that the problem is related to the process not having CAP_IPC_LOCK - at least from the host kernel perspective. This is strange because: - the same VM running directly from QEMU command line works - the same VM running in the system Libvirt (v4.0.0, Ubuntu version) also works What am I missing? My understanding on Linux process is that a process running as root should inherit the same capabilities of the user, which includes CAP_IPC_LOCK. Running Libvirt from source code should grant ipc_lock to it ... right? Any help is appreciated. I can provide more details (VM XML for example) if necessary. Thanks!

[libvirt] [jenkins-ci PATCH] Add support for cross compiling libvirt via Debian
by Daniel P. Berrangé 05 Feb '19

05 Feb '19

Debian's filesystem layout has a nice advantage over Fedora which is that it can install non-native RPMs in the main root filesystem. It is thus possible to prepare an x86_64 filesystem containing -dev packages for a foreign architecture, along with a GCC cross compiler. QEMU has used this technique to facilitate developer build testing of non-x86 architectures, since few people have access to physical hardware for most of these architectures. For the same reason it would be helpful to libvirt developers. This docker file allows creation of containers buildenv-cross-$ARCH for arm64, armel, armhf, mips, mipsel, mips64el, ppc64el, s390x, based off Debian 9, in which libvirt can be cross-compiled. Debian can support further architectures, but only by using the unstable 'sid' repos. This does not enable use of 'sid' but it could be added fairly easily at a later date if desired. Most of the other architectures are fairly old & obscure, the main interesting exception being riscv64. If qemu-user emulators are registered with the kernel binfmt, then it is theoretically possible to run "make check" tool, though this has not been tested. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

[libvirt] [PULL 1/8] qemu-nbd: Deprecate qemu-nbd --partition
by Eric Blake 04 Feb '19

04 Feb '19

The existing qemu-nbd --partition code claims to handle logical partitions up to 8, since its introduction in 2008 (commit 7a5ca86). However, the implementation is bogus (actual MBR logical partitions form a sort of linked list, with one partition per extended table entry, rather than four logical partitions in a single extended table), making the code unlikely to work for anything beyond -P5 on actual guest images. What's more, the code does not support GPT partitions, which are becoming more popular, and maintaining device subsetting in both NBD and the raw device is unnecessary duplication of effort (even if it is not too difficult). Note that obtaining the offsets of a partition (MBR or GPT) can be learned by using 'qemu-nbd -c /dev/nbd0 file.qcow2 && sfdisk --dump /dev/nbd0', but by the time you've done that, you might as well just mount /dev/nbd0p1 that the kernel creates for you instead of bothering with qemu exporting a subset. Or, keeping to just user-space code, use nbdkit's partition filter, which has already known both GPT and primary MBR partitions for a while, and was just recently enhanced to support arbitrary logical MBR parititions. Start the clock on the deprecation cycle, with examples of how to accomplish device subsetting without using -P.
