[PATCH v2 0/5] qemu: add async vCPU unplug coverage
by Akash Kulhalli 22 Jun '26

22 Jun '26

This series adds qemuhotplugtest coverage for async vCPU unplug. Async vCPU unplug does not complete at the device_del reply. The guest CPU remains in a pending removal state until QEMU reports DEVICE_DELETED and the QEMU driver handles the resulting process event. The new harness support lets the tests observe that intermediate state and then complete the unplug through the same process-event path used by the driver. The setvcpu coverage exercises both a single-vCPU x86 hotplug entity and a grouped ppc64 hotplug entity. These cases check the pending live XML before completion and the final live/config XML after completion, while also validating the expected vcpu-removed domain events. The setvcpus coverage adds a separate count-based x86 downscale case. This keeps the independent count-to-entity selection path covered without duplicating the grouped-entity coverage from setvcpu. Changes from v1: - Fixed cumulative build issues with two patches - rebased on latest master, two patches have already been merged Akash Kulhalli (5): qemu: expose process event handler to tests tests: add helper for DEVICE_DELETED events qemuhotplugtest: support async vcpu unplug completion qemuhotplugtest: test setvcpu async unplug qemuhotplugtest: test setvcpus async downscale -- 2.47.3

[PATCH v2] util: virHostCPUGetStatsLinux: add guest_nice to VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST
by Claudio Fontana 22 Jun '26

22 Jun '26

On Linux the accounting stats come from /proc/stat entries and the mapping is: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/filesystems/proc.html VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_KERNEL = (system + irq + softirq) VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_USER = (user + nice) VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_IDLE = idle <VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_INTR> = N/A, irq is accounted by libvirt as KERNEL VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_IOWAIT = iowait VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST = guest VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST was introduced in: b5878727c714 ("util: virHostCPUGetStatsLinux: support VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST") with the goal of specifically accounting the CPU time spent running guest VCPUs. Unfortunately at the time it was not considered that to get a measure of this time, "guest" is not sufficient, because any guest that is "niced" is accounted in a separate category, "guest_nice". This patch rectifies the situation by adding the guest_nice counter, so that VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST = (guest + guest_nice) which makes the statistic useful to the caller, as the totals sum up correctly. In order to find the total USER time spent running host tasks, for example: cpu_user_host = VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_USER - VIR_NODE_CPU_STATS_GUEST this follows from the fact that "guest" is included in "user" accounting, and "guest_nice" is included in "nice" accounting. Extend the existing tests artificially to capture this specific case.

[PATCH] vmx: Fix a case with 64 disks on one SCSI controller
by Martin Kletzander 19 Jun '26

19 Jun '26

From: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan(a)redhat.com> The constants for maximum units on a bus are slightly tricky because for the narrow bus it does not need to account for the extra unit used by the controller, but the wide and super-wide ones need to. With this patch a VMX with 64 disks on a pvscsi controller can be properly parsed. To properly handle the maximum numbers one of the conditions also needs to be changed to not allow for units 16 and 65. This does not change various conditionals in XML parsing and VMX formatting as they need a significant rewrite. And since that is already working only with the wide scsi controller (and not the super-wide one) we leave that refactor for another day as it was done previously. Tests show this is now possible and they fail before this change.

[PATCH v3 00/35] monitor: turn QMP and HMP into QOM objects
by Daniel P. Berrangé 19 Jun '26

19 Jun '26

Conceptually -object and object_add/object_del should be sufficient for essentially all QEMU configuration....if only we ported all our internal custom backends/devices/etc to QOM. That is of course a big job which is why it hasn't happened. This series started with the premise that the monitor is one of the easier areas to convert since we have no more than three classes, a common base, and QMP and HMP subclasses[1]. So why not give it a go and thus unlock the ability to dynamically create/delete monitors in QMP/HMP. This series does the conversion in a great many small steps to better understand the implications at each stage. The high level outcome of this series is * HMP and QMP monitors are QOM objects, 'monitor-hmp' and 'monitor-qmp' respectively * Both can be cold plugged and hot plugged. QMP only, can also be hot unplugged. * '-mon' is obsolete, deprecated and replaced by '-object', but -monitor, -qmp and kept as high level syntax sugar * QMP gains a concept of "close-action" which makes it possible to mark a monitor for auto-delete. The monitor hot-unplug code and the qtest and functional testing code is heavily derived from a series sent by Christian Brauner which proposed new monitor_add/monitor_del commands: https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2026-04/msg01349.html I left Christian's authorship & SoB on the patches which were derived from his code, though the code has been refactored quite a bit in places, so bugs are quite possibly my own. Note that Christian's series allowed the use of "monitor_del" commands against the current monitor session. ie a client could delete the very monitor it was using. This is an awkward concept as it needs special casing to delay the deletion to happen in the background, such that that the QMP response to 'monitor_del' could still be sent back. This also left the chardev was orphaned as there's no way to run 'chardev_dev' in that usage pattern. To provide an alternative mechanism to address the same use case, this series introduces the 'close-action' concept mentioned above, that allows hotplugging a monitor to service a specific task, with the monitor being purged when the script closes its connection.

[PATCH v3] lxc: Assign aliases to filesystem and network devices
by rsmigiel＠redhat.com 19 Jun '26

19 Jun '26

This patch addresses the missing device alias assignment for filesystem and network interface devices in LXC domains. Before this patch, virsh dumpxml showed filesystem and network devices without aliases: <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'> <source dir='/shared6'/> <target dir='/shared6'/> </filesystem> <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='b8:3f:d2:c9:e8:bd'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <target dev='vnet8'/> <model type='virtio'/> </interface> After this patch, filesystem devices have auto-generated aliases: <filesystem type='mount' accessmode='passthrough'> <source dir='/shared6'/> <target dir='/shared6'/> <alias name='fs1'/>  </filesystem> <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='b8:3f:d2:c9:e8:bd'/> <source bridge='br0'/> <target dev='vnet8'/> <model type='virtio'/> <alias name='net4'/>  </interface> Changes in v3: - Implemented new index allocation algorithm, scans existing aliases before new index allocation - Added hotplug support in lxcDomainAttachDeviceNetLive() - Handles gaps in numbering after device detach/attach - Follows QEMU's qemuAssignDeviceNetAlias() pattern - Tested hotplug scenario The implementation follows the same pattern used by QEMU's qemuAssignDeviceNetAlias() and qemuAssignDeviceFSAlias(). This is needed as a prerequisite for fixing bug #63 (loop device path length limitation), where device aliases will be used to compose synthetic lo_file_name references in the format "libvirt-$UUID-$DEVALIAS".

[PATCH 1/1] qemu: stop silently narrowing the guest CPU during live migration
by Denis V. Lunev 18 Jun '26

18 Jun '26

qemuDomainMakeCPUMigratable() strips features marked added='yes' (in src/cpu_map/x86_*.xml) from the migration cookie when the source CPU was specified as host-model. The intent was libvirt-protocol compat with older destinations; the cost is guest CPU compat, paid silently on every migration. Every Intel x86 CPU model from Westmere through Sapphire Rapids carries 60+ added='yes' features, including vmx-exit-load-perf-global-ctrl and vmx-entry-load-perf-global-ctrl that control the LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL allowed-1 bits of MSR_IA32_VMX_{EXIT,ENTRY}_CTLS. A host-model live migration on any of these models drops those features from the destination's qemu argv. Modern qemu gates the nested VMX capability MSRs on the explicit -cpu list, so the guest's MSR view shifts. Linux distributions that load kvm_intel by default snapshot those MSRs at module-load time and validate every newly online CPU against that snapshot. An automated test that boots a guest, live-migrates it, and hot-plugs additional vCPUs reliably trips kvm_intel: Inconsistent VMCS config on CPU N kvm: enabling virtualization on CPUN failed smpboot: CPU N is now offline the guest agent's online attempt returns -EIO and the hot-plug fails. Live migration must preserve the guest's CPU specification bit for bit -- this is a hard contract, not an optimisation target. Drop the strip. If a destination libvirt does not know a feature in the cookie, its parser rejects the migration with a precise unknown-feature error: operators can upgrade or narrow the source CPU definition. Either is visible; the status quo is not. This effectively reverts 14d3517410 ("qemu: domain: Drop added features from migratable CPU") together with its follow-up aae8a5774b ("qemu: Drop vmx-* from migratable CPU model only when origCPU is set"), and removes the now-unused origCPU plumbing in qemuDomainMakeCPUMigratable() and its callers.

[PATCH v2] qemu: stop silently narrowing the guest CPU during live migration
by Denis V. Lunev 18 Jun '26

18 Jun '26

qemuDomainMakeCPUMigratable() strips the features that a CPU model marks as added (in src/cpu_map/x86_*.xml) from the migratable definition unless the user requested them explicitly. This keeps a custom CPU migratable to an older destination libvirt whose copy of the model does not know those features yet. A host-model CPU gains nothing from this and is actively harmed by it. By the time it reaches this function host-model has already been expanded into an explicit custom model that is exactly what we ask QEMU for on the source, and host-model is not guaranteed to migrate to an older libvirt in the first place. Stripping the added features only narrows the guest CPU silently on the destination. Every Intel model from Westmere through Sapphire Rapids marks vmx-exit-load-perf-global-ctrl and vmx-entry-load-perf-global-ctrl as added. These control the LOAD_IA32_PERF_GLOBAL_CTRL allowed-1 bits of the MSR_IA32_VMX_{EXIT,ENTRY}_CTLS MSRs, which modern QEMU only advertises when the features are present on the -cpu command line. After a host-model live migration the destination QEMU is started without them, so a nested guest observes different VMX capability MSRs than it did before the migration. A guest that snapshots those MSRs at kvm_intel module load and validates every newly onlined CPU against the snapshot -- Linux does exactly that -- then refuses to bring up a vCPU hot-plugged after the migration: kvm_intel: Inconsistent VMCS config on CPU N kvm: enabling virtualization on CPUN failed smpboot: CPU N is now offline and the guest agent's online attempt returns -EIO. Treat a host-model CPU's features as explicitly requested by building the keep list from the already expanded definition rather than from origCPU. Custom CPUs are unaffected, so their migration compatibility with older destinations is preserved. Signed-off-by: Denis V. Lunev <den(a)openvz.org> --- v1 -> v2: instead of dropping the added-feature stripping altogether (v1), keep it and only stop applying it to a host-model CPU. Custom CPUs still rely on the stripping to stay migratable to an older destination libvirt, which v1 regressed. src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 16 +++++++++++----- 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_domain.c b/src/qemu/qemu_domain.c index a43a5c0e4f..e1b805d906 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_domain.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_domain.c @@ -5373,12 +5373,18 @@ qemuDomainMakeCPUMigratable(virArch arch, if (virCPUx86GetAddedFeatures(cpu->model, &data.added) < 0) return -1; - /* Drop features marked as added in a cpu model, but only - * when they are not mentioned in origCPU, i.e., when they were not - * explicitly mentioned by the user. - */ + /* Drop features marked as added in a CPU model unless they were + * explicitly requested, so the migratable definition stays + * compatible with destinations that do not know them.
