[Libvir] [PATCH] Show Xen vif<domid>.<n> device name in domain XML
by Richard W.M. Jones 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

This patch changes the Xen domain XML so that it shows the target device (ie. vif<domid>.<n>), which you can then use to collect interface stats. For example: # virsh dumpxml fc6_1 ... <interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='xenbr0'/> <target dev='vif2.0'/> <mac address='00:16:3e:1a:2f:8c'/> <script path='vif-bridge'/> </interface> Note that this patch only adds to the XML, it doesn't change any XML that was being returned before.

[Libvir] [PATCH] Check availability of driver calls
by Richard W.M. Jones 21 Aug '07

21 Aug '07

This is a repost of a patch I sent before which adds the ability to check for driver features. This is completely internal to libvirt and does not add any public APIs. The original discussion is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-July/thread.html#00437 and continues here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-August/thread.html#00000 Daniel Veillard said: >> +typedef int >> + (*virDrvSupportsFeature) (virConnectPtr conn, virDrvFeature feature); > >I would rather use , int features) where you OR the features, allows >to know in one call if you get what you want or not. My objection to that is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-August/msg00000.html Rich. -- Emerging Technologies, Red Hat - http://et.redhat.com/~rjones/ Registered Address: Red Hat UK Ltd, Amberley Place, 107-111 Peascod Street, Windsor, Berkshire, SL4 1TE, United Kingdom.

[Libvir] [PATCH] virDomainMigrate version 5 (repost)
by Richard W.M. Jones 20 Aug '07

20 Aug '07

This is a repost of version 5 patch. Previous discussion of version 5: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-July/thread.html#00357 Previous discussion of version 4: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2007-July/thread.html#00304 (This is separate from the feature patch, but in reality if the feature patch goes in, then I'd modify this patch slightly to make it use feature detection).
