[Libvir] [PATCH] setvcpus message
by Mark Johnson 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

This patch is probably not correct. I wasn't sure how to handle I18N in libvirt. Had a request to add an error message for setvcpus <domain> 0. This patch prints an error message for that case. Mark

[Libvir] Solaris patches applied
by Richard W.M. Jones 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

I applied the easy ones: * src/internal.h, src/virsh.c: Replace _N with N_ so that Solaris builds work (Mark Johnson). * src/virsh.c: Add a couple of missing error messages (Mark Johnson). * python/types.c: Fix NULL pointer deref on DEBUG build (Mark Johnson). * src/virsh.c: Spelling fix (Mark Johnson). I can't test if it works on Solaris, but it still builds on Linux. Now to look at the last patch you sent ... Thanks for your contribution to libvirt.

by Mark Johnson 15 Jun '07

Another requested error message. This prints out a message if the vcpuinfo failed because the domain was shutdown. same comment as previous patch about I18N. Mark

[Libvir] [PATCH] Spelling fix
by Mark Johnson 15 Jun '07

15 Jun '07

Hi all, This is the first of 10 or 11 patches I'll be submitting which gets libvirt compiling/working on a Solaris dom0. Also some minor generic bug fixing.. Sorry it took me so long from the Xen Summit.. Starting with a very simple one. :-) As I test them on the cvs tree on Fedora, I'll submit them.. So they'll trickle in over the next couple of days. A couple of them will probably require some discussion and changes. I'm applying the patches with the following # patch -t -s -p1 -i ../patches/spelling on todays CVS gate and tested on a fedora 7 dom0 (LD_PRELOAD=src/.libs/libvirt.so src/.libs/virsh) Thanks, Mark

[Libvir] no vfb for paravirt guest on RHEL 5 and strange args
by Glen Deem 13 Jun '07

13 Jun '07

Hi all, I'm creating a fairy simple paravirt machine under RHEL 5 (Xen 3.0.3, pygrub 0.6). A machine gets created but I see two problems: 1. no graphics console gets enabled (so RedHat VMM does not open it) so I cannot connect to it with vncviewer (am I naive to use vfb fpr a paravirt domU? - libvirt uses it, right?); 2. when I check what config has been used to create the domain (in /var/log/xen/xend.log) I see arguments ("args" or "extra") picked up from a virtual machine created a while age, my present "extra" parameter is ignored. I did regenerate xenstored/tdb and rebooted, still those args appear, drives my nuts :-). I'm actually after the graphics console, but I think both problems are related. Could anybody advise why I get no proper vfb setup (I'd expect a vnc-port vaue appearing in the xen store when it setup properly) and why I get those old args? Thanks in advance, Deem P.S. xm config ============ name = "para-2" memory = "256" disk = [ 'file:/var/lib/para-2.img,hda,w' ] vif = [ 'bridge=xenbr0' ] vfb = ['type=vnc, vncunused=1'] bootloader='/usr/bin/pygrub' vcpus=1 on_reboot = 'restart' on_crash = 'restart' extra = 'ignored' from /var/log/xen/xend.log: ================== [2007-06-12 17:13:56 xend.XendDomainInfo 5445] DEBUG (XendDomainInfo:940) XendDomainInfo.handleShutdownWatch [2007-06-12 17:41:57 xend.XendDomainInfo 5445] DEBUG (XendDomainInfo:190) XendDomainInfo.create(['vm', ['name', 'para-2'], ['memory', '256'], ['on_reboot', 'restart'], ['on_crash', 'restart'], ['vcpus', 1], ['bootloader', '/usr/bin/pygrub'], ['image', ['linux', ['ramdisk', '/var/lib/xen/initrd.NMeE1x'], ['kernel', '/var/lib/xen/vmlinuz.7QoaTW'], ['args', 'nosplash quiet rw acpi=on XXHOST=localhost.localdomain XXLDAP=127.0.0.1 resume2=swap:/dev/mapper/XxxxxxVG-swap vga=791 root=/dev/XxxxxxxVG/root']]], ['device', ['vbd', ['uname', 'file:/var/lib/para-2.img'], ['dev', 'hda'], ['mode', 'w']]], ['device', ['vif', ['bridge', 'xenbr0']]], ['device', ['vkbd']], ['device', ['vfb', ['vncunused', '1'], ['type', 'vnc'], ['display', ':0.0'], ['xauthority', '/root/.xauthfLRNzX']]]])

[Libvir] New vs old-style hypercalls
by Richard W.M. Jones 12 Jun '07

12 Jun '07

In xen_internal.c we've got code which claims to sniff out whether we are using new-style hypercall ioctls or old-style hypercall ioctls. hc.op = __HYPERVISOR_xen_version; hc.arg[0] = (unsigned long) XENVER_version; hc.arg[1] = 0; cmd = IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL; ret = ioctl(fd, cmd, (unsigned long) &hc); if ((ret != -1) && (ret != 0)) { #ifdef DEBUG fprintf(stderr, "Using new hypervisor call: %X\n", ret); #endif hv_version = ret; xen_ioctl_hypercall_cmd = cmd; goto detect_v2; } /* * check if the old hypercall are actually working */ v0_hc.op = __HYPERVISOR_xen_version; v0_hc.arg[0] = (unsigned long) XENVER_version; v0_hc.arg[1] = 0; cmd = _IOC(_IOC_NONE, 'P', 0, sizeof(v0_hypercall_t)); ret = ioctl(fd, cmd, (unsigned long) &v0_hc); But on 64 bit platforms (not 32 bit) cmd will be identical, so we'll just be trying the same ioctl twice. From <xen/linux/privcmd.h>: typedef struct privcmd_hypercall { __u64 op; __u64 arg[5]; } privcmd_hypercall_t; #define IOCTL_PRIVCMD_HYPERCALL \ _IOC(_IOC_NONE, 'P', 0, sizeof(privcmd_hypercall_t)) From src/xen_internal.c: typedef struct v0_hypercall_struct { unsigned long op; unsigned long arg[5]; } v0_hypercall_t; cmd = _IOC(_IOC_NONE, 'P', 0, sizeof(v0_hypercall_t)); On 64 bit platforms, both structures will be the same size.
