[libvirt PATCH RFC] ci: adapt to 'dtrace' package split
by Ján Tomko 21 Aug '24

21 Aug '24

Fedora has decided to separate dtrace out of the systemtap-sdt-devel package: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Separate_dtrace_package Similarly, these are split in OpenSUSE Tumbleweed, however in a backward-compatbile way: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/openSUSE:Factory/systemtap Require the new 'systemtap-sdt' package mapping, as well as the old 'dtrace'.

New features tests fails
by Anthony Harivel 20 Aug '24

20 Aug '24

Hi, I'm trying to implement the libvirt part of a new feature that has landed in QEMU staging [1]. The current draft of this implementations is the following [2]. It compiles on top of master. But when I want to run the tests suites, I hit an issue I don't managed to find the problem. It runs until: [...] 278/279 libvirt:bin / qemuxmlconftest FAIL 8.63s exit status 1 [...] then it tells me to run the following to understand the issue: VIR_TEST_DEBUG=1 VIR_TEST_RANGE=850-851,854-855 /home/aharivel/work/libvirt/build/tests/qemuxmlconftest It outputs this: [...] 850) QEMU XML def -> XML kvm-features.x86_64-latest ...

FAILED I certainly did something wrong in the implementation but I don't figure it out. I understand the Expect / Actual tests. I'm guessing the issue is that it needs to run the QEMU version where the feature is possible but I don't see how can tell the test to run this particular version. Any advise would be greatly appreciate.

[PATCH 0/3] Fix ARP table parsing over netlink messages
by Martin Kletzander 19 Aug '24

19 Aug '24

Somehow it happened that some kernels (I noticed this with 6.10.0 and 6.10.2 on various machines) started sending NLMSG_DONE message (as they probably should've even before), but our check for it could've never worked and now `virsh domifaddr --source arp` sometimes fails with "wrong nlmsg len". So I set out on a quest to tame the netlink beast and though fierceful debugging and... Oh, I forgot, nobody reads cover letters. Never mind.

[PATCH 0/3] Implement support for QCOW2 data files
by Nikolai Barybin 19 Aug '24

19 Aug '24

There are use cases when the existing disks (i.e. LVM) are wanted to be used with advanced features. For this purpose QEMU allows data-file feature for qcow2 files: metadata is kept in the qcow2 file like usual, but guest data is written to an external file. These patches enable support for this feature in libvirt.

Shared LVM and starting/stopping volumes
by dajester2005＠gmail.com 19 Aug '24

19 Aug '24

Ran into a situation using a shared LVM2 volume group, where if there were volumes locked by a server, the pool could not be started on another server due to "vgchange -aly" not being able to acquire locks on all volumes in the pool. This was referenced in issue #38 on gitlab. Long story short, I've experimented with adding APIs for starting/stopping individual volumes in a storage pool, and implementing that API in the logical backend driver. I'm not a C developer by trade, but all the existing tests pass. I'd like to submit this for some feedback, and see what would be needed to incorporate this, or similar API: https://gitlab.com/dajester2013/libvirt/-/tree/shared-lvm-storage-mods
