[PATCH v3] audio: deprecate HMP audio commands
by marcandre.lureau＠redhat.com 28 Oct '25

28 Oct '25

From: Marc-André Lureau <marcandre.lureau(a)redhat.com> The command is niche and better served by the host audio system. There is no QMP equivalent, fortunately. You can capture the audio stream via remote desktop protocols too (dbus, vnc, spice).

[FOSDEM] Call for participation: Virtualization and Cloud infrastructure Room at FOSDEM 2026
by Piotr Kliczewski 28 Oct '25

28 Oct '25

We are excited to announce that the call for proposals is now open for the Virtualization and Cloud infrastructure devroom at the upcoming FOSDEM 2026, to be hosted on 31st of January. This devroom is a collaborative effort, and is organized by dedicated folks from projects such as OpenStack, Xen Project, KubeVirt, QEMU, KVM, and Foreman. We invite everyone involved in these fields to submit your proposals by 5th December 2025. About the Devroom The Virtualization & IaaS devroom will feature session topics such as open source hypervisors or virtual machine managers such as Xen Project, KVM, bhyve and VirtualBox as well as Infrastructure-as-a-Service projects such as KubeVirt, Apache CloudStack, OpenStack, QEMU and OpenNebula. This devroom will host presentations that focus on topics of shared interest, such as KVM, libvirt, shared storage, virtualized networking, cloud security, clustering and high availability, interfacing with multiple hypervisors, hyperconverged deployments and scaling across hundreds or thousands of servers. Presentations in this devroom will be aimed at developers working on these platforms who are looking to collaborate and improve shared infrastructure or solve common problems. We seek topics that encourage dialog between projects and continued work post-FOSDEM. Important Dates Submission deadline: 5th December 2025 Acceptance notifications: 10th December 2025 Final schedule announcement: 15th of December 2025 Devroom: 31st of January Submit Your Proposal During submission [1] please make sure to select Virtualization and Cloud infrastructure from the Track list. Please provide a meaningful abstract and description of your proposed session. Submission Guidelines We expect more proposals than we can possibly accept, so it is vitally important that you submit your proposal on or before the deadline. Late submissions are unlikely to be considered. All presentation slots are 30 minutes, with 20 minutes planned for presentations, and 10 minutes for Q&A. All presentations will be recorded and made available under Creative Commons licenses. In the Submission notes field, please indicate that you agree that your presentation will be licensed under the CC-By-SA-4.0 or CC-By-4.0 license and that you agree to have your presentation recorded. For example: "If my presentation is accepted for FOSDEM, I hereby agree to license all recordings, slides, and other associated materials under the Creative Commons Attribution Share-Alike 4.0 International License. Sincerely, Piotr Kliczewski and Tal Nisan In the Submission notes field, please also confirm that if your talk is accepted, you will be able to attend FOSDEM and deliver your presentation. We will not consider proposals from prospective speakers who are unsure whether they will be able to secure funds for travel and lodging to attend FOSDEM. (Sadly, we are not able to offer travel funding for prospective speakers.) Code of Conduct Following the release of the updated code of conduct for FOSDEM[2], we'd like to remind all speakers and attendees that all of the presentations and discussions in our devroom are held under the guidelines set in the CoC and we expect attendees, speakers, and volunteers to follow the CoC at all times. If you submit a proposal and it is accepted, you will be required to confirm that you accept the FOSDEM CoC. If you have any questions about the CoC or wish to have one of the devroom organizers review your presentation slides or any other content for CoC compliance, please email us and we will do our best to assist you. Questions? If you have any questions about this devroom, please send your questions to our devroom mailing list. You can also subscribe to the list to receive updates about important dates, session announcements, and to connect with other attendees. See you all at FOSDEM!

[PATCH] qemu: Drop /dev/kvm from default device ACL
by Praveen K Paladugu 22 Oct '25

22 Oct '25

A domain that runs with TCG emulation does not need kvm device, so drop it from default device ACL. To dynamically add devices to defaultDeviceACL, make it a GSList. This variable will be initialized when qemu driver is initalized. Lastly, dynamically append /dev/kvm to default ACL only if the domain is of type VIR_DOMAIN_VIRT_KVM.

[PATCH 0/2] qemu: hyperv spinlock retries count bugfix & improvement
by Friedrich Oslage 22 Oct '25

22 Oct '25

Greetings! I previously submitted this patch via GitLab [1] but was told to send it here instead. Well, here it is. Including tests! :-) The 1st patch contains the bugfix part: It fixes a type mismatch (int/uint) preventing us from using the special "never notify" value qemu recommends [2] for non-overcomitted VMs. The 2nd patch contains the improvement: While inspecting the bug I noticed that the default value for retries is currently 0. That doesn't really make sense as we explicitly require it to be >= 0xFFF (4095). This renders the retries attribute mandatory as opposed to the xml schema definition which already defines it as optional. This patch updates the default value to 0xFFFFFFFF (aka "never notify") and makes it truly optional.

[PATCH v3 0/3] qemu: Implement support for multiple device-pluggable SMMUv3s
by Nathan Chen 22 Oct '25

22 Oct '25

Hi, This is a follow up to the second patchset [0] for supporting multiple device-pluggable vSMMU instances. This patchset implements support for specifying multiple <iommu> devices within the VM definition when smmuv3 IOMMU model is specified with a pciBus driver attribute, and is tested with Shameer's recently accepted qemu series for user-creatable vSMMU devices [1] For instance, specifying the associated emulated device in a VM definition with multiple IOMMUs, configured to be routed to pcie-expander-bus or pcie-root controllers: <devices> <controller type='pci' index='0' model='pcie-root'/> <controller type='pci' index='1' model='pcie-expander-bus'> <model name='pxb-pcie'/> <target busNr='252'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/> </controller> <controller type='pci' index='2' model='pcie-root-port'> <model name='pcie-root-port'/> <target chassis='2' port='0x0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x01' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </controller> ... <rng model='virtio'> <backend model='random'>/dev/urandom</backend> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x02' slot='0x00' function='0x0'/> </rng> <rng model='virtio'> <backend model='random'>/dev/urandom</backend> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x04' function='0x0'/> </rng> <iommu model='smmuv3'> <driver pciBus='0'/> </iommu> <iommu model='smmuv3'> <driver pciBus='1'/> </iommu> </devices> This would get translated to a qemu command line with the arguments below. -device '{"driver":"pxb-pcie","bus_nr":252,"id":"pci.1","bus":"pcie.0","addr":"0x1"}' \ -device '{"driver":"pcie-root-port","port":0,"chassis":2,"id":"pci.2","bus":"pci.1","addr":"0x0"}' \ -device '{"driver":"arm-smmuv3","primary-bus":"pcie.0","id":"smmuv3.0"}' \ -device '{"driver":"arm-smmuv3","primary-bus":"pci.1","id":"smmuv3.1"}' \ ... -object '{"qom-type":"rng-random","id":"objrng0","filename":"/dev/urandom"}' \ -device '{"driver":"virtio-rng-pci","rng":"objrng0","id":"rng0","bus":"pci.2","addr":"0x0"}' \ -object '{"qom-type":"rng-random","id":"objrng1","filename":"/dev/urandom"}' \ -device '{"driver":"virtio-rng-pci","rng":"objrng1","id":"rng1","bus":"pcie.0","addr":"0x4"}' \ Changes from v2: - Make multi-iommu adoption the first commit - Consolidate smmuv3Dev into smmuv3 model - Change 'parentIdx' attribute name to 'pciBus' - Change naming of virDomainDef 'iommu' attribute to 'iommus' - Move multi-iommu check to validation code - Move qemu dev props function to device-pluggable smmuv3 commit - Fix conditional statements per feedback Changes from v1: - Moved parentIdx attribute under <driver> - Revised qemuxmlconfdata test cases to attach emulated devices This series is on Github: https://github.com/NathanChenNVIDIA/libvirt/tree/nestedsmmuv3-no-accel-10-2… Thanks, Nathan [0] https://lists.libvirt.org/archives/list/devel@lists.libvirt.org/thread/IF6O… [1] https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20250829082543.7680-1-skolothumtho@nvidi… Signed-off-by: Nathan Chen <nathanc(a)nvidia.com> Nathan Chen (3): conf: Support multiple device-pluggable smmuv3 IOMMUs qemu: Implement pluggable-device smmuv3 tests: qemuxmlconfdata: provide device-pluggable smmuv3 sample XML and CLI args docs/formatdomain.rst | 4 + src/conf/domain_conf.c | 100 +++++++-- src/conf/domain_conf.h | 10 +- src/conf/domain_validate.c | 61 ++++-- src/conf/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 9 +- src/libvirt_private.syms | 2 + src/qemu/qemu_alias.c | 15 +- src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 197 ++++++++++++------ src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 2 +- src/qemu/qemu_domain_address.c | 5 +- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 8 +- src/qemu/qemu_postparse.c | 11 +- src/qemu/qemu_validate.c | 2 +- .../iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.aarch64-latest.args | 41 ++++ .../iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.aarch64-latest.xml | 62 ++++++ .../qemuxmlconfdata/iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.xml | 49 +++++ tests/qemuxmlconftest.c | 1 + 17 files changed, 455 insertions(+), 124 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/qemuxmlconfdata/iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.aarch64-latest.args create mode 100644 tests/qemuxmlconfdata/iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.aarch64-latest.xml create mode 100644 tests/qemuxmlconfdata/iommu-smmuv3-pci-bus.xml -- 2.43.0
