[PATCH] qapi/net: deprecate TAP fd and vhostfd options
by Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy 08 Feb '26

08 Feb '26

They are the same as fds and vhostfds, except they accept only one fd. Let's deprecate redundant options. Signed-off-by: Vladimir Sementsov-Ogievskiy <vsementsov(a)yandex-team.ru> --- Hi all! after "[PATCH v2 00/12] net: refactoring and fixes" options fd and vhostfd becomes redundant, fds and vhostfds may be used instead. this patch also based on "[PATCH v6] qapi: net: deprecate vhostforce option", that's why it's sent separately.

[PATCH v6 00/27] hw/i386/pc: Remove deprecated 2.6 and 2.7 PC machines
by Zhao Liu 07 Feb '26

07 Feb '26

Hi, This v6 is based on the master branch at the commit 0fc482b73d8e ("Merge tag 'pull-aspeed-20260105' of https://github.com/legoater/qemu into staging"). Since there's the discussion around fw_cfg_init_io_nodma() [*], v6 doesn't include that cleanups. Therefore, comparing v5, v6 has *very* minimal changes and most of patches have been reviewed (except patch 15 - I think it needs an additianl review :-) ). Thanks for your patience and review! Introduction ============ A brief introduction from Philippe's v4: The versioned 'pc' and 'q35' machines up to 2.12 been marked as deprecated three releases ago, and are older than 6 years, so according to our support policy we can remove them. This series only includes the 2.6 and 2.7 machines removal, as it is a big enough number of LoC removed. Rest will follow. Change Log ========== (Main) changes since v5: * Merge pc & q35 changes for testing DSDT tables into one patch and simplify the commit message. * Reorganize S-o-b and collect review tags from Igor. (Main) changes since v4: * Completely remove the legacy CPU hotplug approach. - New patch 2-8. - Test CPU hot-plug & hot-unplug via qmp. * Keep "dma_enabled" property in fw_cfg_io_properties[] since Sun4u & Sun4v are still using it. - About more details, please see commit message of patch 15. * Temporarily keep these properties: "cpuid-0xb" (of X86CPU), "fill-mtrr-mask" (of X86CPU), "version" (of IOAPICCommonState). - These properties will be deprecated first before removal, in another series. * Keep "l3-cache" (of X86CPU) and "page-per-vq" (of VirtIOPCIProxy), since they are still in use (e.g., libvirt).

[PATCH] virt-aa-helper: Fix unchecked return values
by Dmitry Lopatin 06 Feb '26

06 Feb '26

Add missing return value checks to fix the following issues reported by the static analyzer: - vah_add_file() call when adding render node path to the AppArmor profile (line 1029) was not checked, while there are examples with return code check throughout the code. - vah_add_file() call when adding default render node path (line 1037) had the same issue. - virDriverLoadModule() call when loading the storage driver (line 908) was not checked, while there are examples with return code check throughout the code.

Download of volume: alternating frames of 262120 and 24 bytes
by Erik Huelsmann 03 Feb '26

03 Feb '26

Hi, While analysing traffic generated by "virsh vol-download", I noticed that the download stream exhibits the following pattern (over qemu+ssh://): <Start> Read 4 bytes (= frame length field) Read 262144 bytes (= header + payload ; VIR_NET_MESSAGE_HEADER_MAX (24) + VIR_NET_MESSAGE_LEGACY_PAYLOAD_MAX (262120)) Read 4 bytes (= frame length field) Read 48 bytes (= header + payload) <Go back to Start> While nothing seems to be actually wrong with this pattern, the average payload on large data transfers is only (262120+24)/2 == 131072 and the CPU makes double the iterations necessary. I'll be trying to figure out where this comes from, but I imagine that will be pretty hard to track down. Two questions: 1. Do you see the same thing? 2. Any ideas/hints where I could start looking?

[PATCH] build: add detection of xdrproc_t arguments count
by Roman Bogorodskiy 03 Feb '26

03 Feb '26

According to 9fa3a8ab6fd82ad2f5a14b490696085061418718, macOS insists on passing 3 arguments for xdrproc_t. Passing 3 arguments was a good common ground, but since recently[1] FreeBSD only accepts 2 arguments. Add a meson.build check whether 3 arguments are accepted, and add macros which passes either 2 or 3 arguments to xdrproc_t based on the result of this check. 1: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/commit/?id=ac5a19ec6989675c8ec6c3ca245dba243d1… Signed-off-by: Roman Bogorodskiy <bogorodskiy(a)gmail.com> --- meson.build | 19 +++++++++++++++++++ scripts/rpcgen/tests/test_demo.c | 12 +++++++++--- src/rpc/virnetmessage.c | 10 ++++++++-- 3 files changed, 36 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/meson.build b/meson.build index 964d1fa4e1..4a4f89c1cb 100644 --- a/meson.build +++ b/meson.build @@ -893,6 +893,25 @@ else xdr_dep = dependency('', required: false) endif +if xdr_dep.found() + xdrproc_3arg_code = ''' + #include <rpc/xdr.h> + + bool_t test_filter(XDR *xdr, void *data, unsigned int opaque_flags) { + return TRUE; + } + + int main() { + XDR xdr; + xdrproc_t filter = (xdrproc_t)&test_filter; + (*filter)(&xdr, NULL, 0); + return 0; + } + ''' + if cc.compiles(xdrproc_3arg_code, dependencies: xdr_dep) + conf.set('XDRPROC_T_3ARGS', 1) + endif +endif # generic build dependencies diff --git a/scripts/rpcgen/tests/test_demo.c b/scripts/rpcgen/tests/test_demo.c index e6ba7ddbc5..82eda89592 100644 --- a/scripts/rpcgen/tests/test_demo.c +++ b/scripts/rpcgen/tests/test_demo.c @@ -8,6 +8,12 @@ # define xdr_uint64_t xdr_u_int64_t #endif +#if defined(XDRPROC_T_3ARGS) +# define XDRPROC(proc, xdr, data) (proc(&xdr, data, 0)) +#else +# define XDRPROC(proc, xdr, data) (proc(&xdr, data)) +#endif + #include "demo.h" #include "demo.c" @@ -27,7 +33,7 @@ static void test_xdr(xdrproc_t proc, void *vorig, void *vnew, const char *testna /* Step 1: serialize the vorig and compare to the data in test .bin files */ xdrmem_create(&xdr, buf, buflen, XDR_ENCODE); - ret = !!proc(&xdr, vorig, 0); + ret = !!XDRPROC(proc, xdr, vorig); g_assert_cmpint(ret, ==, !fail); if (fail) @@ -54,7 +60,7 @@ static void test_xdr(xdrproc_t proc, void *vorig, void *vnew, const char *testna /* Step 2: de-serialize the state to create a new object */ xdrmem_create(&xdr, buf, buflen, XDR_DECODE); - ret = !!proc(&xdr, vnew, 0); + ret = !!XDRPROC(proc, xdr, vnew); g_assert_cmpint(ret, ==, true); actlen = xdr_getpos(&xdr); @@ -68,7 +74,7 @@ static void test_xdr(xdrproc_t proc, void *vorig, void *vnew, const char *testna xdrmem_create(&xdr, buf, buflen, XDR_ENCODE); - ret = !!proc(&xdr, vnew, 0); + ret = !!XDRPROC(proc, xdr, vnew); g_assert_cmpint(ret, ==, true); actlen = xdr_getpos(&xdr); diff --git a/src/rpc/virnetmessage.c b/src/rpc/virnetmessage.c index af0f9cb30b..e66df5c9e2 100644 --- a/src/rpc/virnetmessage.c +++ b/src/rpc/virnetmessage.c @@ -34,6 +34,12 @@ VIR_LOG_INIT("rpc.netmessage"); +#if defined(XDRPROC_T_3ARGS) +# define XDRPROC_FILTER(filter, xdr, data) ((*filter)(&xdr, data, 0)) +#else +# define XDRPROC_FILTER(filter, xdr, data) ((*filter)(&xdr, data)) +#endif + virNetMessage *virNetMessageNew(bool tracked) { virNetMessage *msg; @@ -367,7 +373,7 @@ int virNetMessageEncodePayload(virNetMessage *msg, msg->bufferLength - msg->bufferOffset, XDR_ENCODE); /* Try to encode the payload.

[RFC PATCH v4 0/7] riscv: add initial sdext support
by Chao Liu 02 Feb '26

02 Feb '26

Hi, Per Daniel's review feedback, this v4 series is based on Alistair's riscv-to-apply.next branch [3]. It depends on patches 1-5 of Max Chou's "Add Zvfbfa extension support" v2 series (not included; apply them first) [2]. It is based on RISC-V Debug Specification 1.0 [1]. It introduces the sdext/sdtrig config bits, DCSR/DPC/DSCRATCH state, Debug Mode enter/leave helpers, DRET, EBREAK entry, single-step, and trigger action=debug mode. To reduce review load, this series focuses on the Sdext features first. The Debug Module (DM) and related flows will follow in a later series. Changes in v4: - Fixed linux-user build errors: moved debug_mode/dcsr/dpc/dscratch fields inside #ifndef CONFIG_USER_ONLY block in cpu.h, and wrapped all code using these fields with proper guards. (Daniel) - Updated dependency from single patch (patch 5 only) to patches 1-5 of Max Chou's "Add Zvfbfa extension support" v2 series to avoid compilation errors. Changes in v3: - Rebase onto Alistair's riscv-to-apply.next branch. - Depend on Max Chou's patch "target/riscv: Use the tb->cs_bqse as the extend tb flags." (not included; apply it first) [2]. - Patch 2: default sdext to false in riscv_cpu_extensions[]. Changes in v2: - Drop the RHCT expected AML update from this series. - Replace the split sdext/sdtrig config bits patch with deprecating the 'debug' CPU property. - Rebase and update patch subjects to target/riscv prefix. Changes in v1: - Debug Mode entry/exit updates DCSR/DPC and restores execution via DRET. - EBREAK honors DCSR ebreak bits and enters Debug Mode when enabled. - Single-step uses DCSR.STEP with a TB flag and a helper at TB exit. It references Max Chou's patch "target/riscv: Use the tb->cs_bqse as the extend tb flags." [2]. - Sdtrig supports action=debug mode for mcontrol/mcontrol6 and reports inst-count triggers in tinfo. Differences vs Debug Spec (known gaps): - No Debug Module (no DMI, dmcontrol/dmstatus, haltreq/resumereq). - No debug ROM, program buffer, abstract commands, or SBA. - Resume is modeled by leaving Debug Mode at cpu_exec_enter. - Step/exception ordering is simplified: if the stepped instruction traps, the normal exception is taken and Debug Mode is not forced. - Several DCSR fields are not fully modeled (stopcount/stoptime, etc). Roadmap (next stage, DM focus): 1) Add a DM core with DMI access and hart state tracking. 2) Implement halt/resume handshake and move Debug Mode transitions under DM control. 3) Add debug ROM, program buffer, and abstract commands for GPR/CSR and memory access. 4) Add SBA if required by tooling. 5) Tighten ordering rules for step/exception/trigger priorities.

Qemu pause-before-switchover and libvirt live migration
by Rogério Vinhal Nunes 02 Feb '26

02 Feb '26

Hello, I’m looking into the libvirt hooks that are available to make use of during a live migration, but there's only hooks on migration begin and migration end. On qemu directly I’m able to use pause-before-switchover migration capability to run a custom operation just before it moves to the destination, but within libvirt it seems that while this is leveraged internally, it’s not currently exposed to the client in a way I can use. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I could expose this to the client in a generic and sensible way? Thanks, Rogerio
