Therefore, for the vhost-user-blk disk, it is appropriate to use the vhost-user-blk disk associated socket file configuration in libvirt. But in spdk, a vhost-user-scsi controller will be associated with multiple disks, and a vhost-user-scsi controller will only be associated with one socket file. Therefore, we think that for vhost-user-scsi, it is appropriate to use the controller to associate the socket file configuration in libvirt.

[PATCH 0/5] qemu: Fix chardev hotplug and deny <console/> live detach
by Michal Privoznik 18 Apr '23

18 Apr '23

While trying to make live detach of <console/> work, I've accumulated couple of patches. The most reasonable ones made it into this patch set as paches 1-4. And after nearly losing my sanity, I've decided it's not worth supporting live detach of <console/> since <serial/> works just fine. And that's what patch 5 does. If somebody thinks it's too harsh, I'm more than happy to review their patches that fix the problem. What problem?

[PATCH V2 0/3] Change default machine type for ARM and RISC-V
by Jim Fehlig 18 Apr '23

18 Apr '23

It is difficult, if not impossible, to create usable ARM and RISC-V VMs using the current default machine types of 'integratorcp' and 'spike_v1.10'. Change the default to the more suitable 'virt' type.

[PATCH 0/3] Change default machine type for aarch64 and riscv64
by Jim Fehlig 18 Apr '23

18 Apr '23

This series is a first attempt at changing the default machine type for aarch64 and riscv64. It is difficult, if not impossible, to create a working VM with the current defaults of 'integratorcp' and 'spike_v1.10', so let's change the default to type 'virt'. See the following thread for more details https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2023-March/238746.html On aarch64, the default CPU for machine type 'virt' is 'cortex-a15', which works fine for <domain type='qemu'>, but fails for type='kvm' 2023-04-14T21:03:03.392256Z qemu-system-aarch64: KVM is not supported for this guest CPU type Do we need to go a step further and define a default CPU (presumably host-passthrough) for machine type 'virt' for kvm domains on aarch64?

[PATCH] kbase: debuglogs: Add a 'TL; DR' section for enabling logging in most common case

The document grew a bit too much explaining all the mistakes we've seen the users do when configuring logging.
