[PULL 31/31] linux-user: Remove the deprecated ppc64abi32 target
by Alex Bennée 07 Feb '22

07 Feb '22

From: Thomas Huth <thuth(a)redhat.com> It's likely broken, and nobody cared for picking it up again during the deprecation phase, so let's remove this now. Since this is the last entry in deprecated_targets_list, remove the related code in the configure script, too.

[PATCH] virhostcpu: fix getting CPU freq for Apple Silicon
by Menci 05 Feb '22

05 Feb '22

The current implementation of virHostCPUGetInfo for macOS (__APPLE__) reads "hw.cpufrequency" from sysctl, which is available only on x86_64 architecture. On Apple Silicon ARM Macs, it's not available: $ sysctl hw.cpufrequency # No output $ arch -x86_64 sysctl hw.cpufrequency # Run with Rosetta 2 hw.cpufrequency: 2400000000 When running libvirtd on Apple Silicon, I got the error: cannot obtain CPU freq: No such file or directory. To fix it, we can calculate it with "hw.tbfrequency" and "kern.clockrate" instead: $ sysctl hw.tbfrequency hw.tbfrequency: 24000000 $ sysctl kern.clockrate kern.clockrate: { hz = 100, tick = 10000, tickadj = 0, profhz = 100, stathz = 100 } The result value would be hw.tbfrequency * kern.clockrate.hz.

[PATCH 0/2] qemu_process: Start QEMU for caps probing more robustly
by Michal Privoznik 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

I'm not going to lie, my true motive is to be able to have a very small bash wrapper that spawns QEMU under valgrind, e.g. like this: #!/bin/bash exec /usr/bin/valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full \ --track-fds=yes --log-file=/tmp/valgrind_qemu.log \ qemu-system-x86_64 "$@" But if a malicious user provides slightly different script (see 2/2) then they can starve libvirt worker pool. Hence, we have two reasons for merging these.

[PATCH] qemu: Validate domain definition even on migration
by Michal Privoznik 04 Feb '22

04 Feb '22

When we are about to spawn QEMU, we validate the domain definition against qemuCaps. Except when domain is/was already running before (i.e. on incoming migration, snapshots, resume from a file). However, especially on incoming migration it may happen that the destination QEMU is different to the source QEMU, e.g. the destination QEMU may have some devices disabled. And we have a function that validates devices/features requested in domain XML against the desired QEMU capabilities (aka qemuCaps) - it's virDomainDefValidate() which calls qemuValidateDomainDef() and qemuValidateDomainDeviceDef() subsequently. But the problem here is that the validation function is explicitly skipped over in specific scenarios (like incoming migration, restore from a snapshot or previously saved file). This in turn means that we may spawn QEMU and request device/features it doesn't support. When that happens QEMU fails to load migration stream: qemu-kvm: ... 'virtio-mem-pci' is not a valid device model name (NB, while the example shows one particular device, the problem is paramount) This problem is easier to run into since we are slowly moving validation from qemu_command.c into said validation functions. The solution is simple: do the validation in all cases. And while it may happen that users would be unable to migrate/restore a guest due to a bug in our validator, spawning QEMU without validation is worse (especially when you consider that users can supply their own XMLs for migrate/restore operations - these were never validated).

[libvirt PATCH v8 0/3] Ignore EPERM on implicit clearing of VF VLAN ID
by Dmitrii Shcherbakov 03 Feb '22

03 Feb '22

SmartNIC DPUs may not expose some privileged eswitch operations to the hypervisor hosts. For example, this happens with Bluefield devices running in the ECPF (default) mode [1] for security reasons. While VF MAC address programming is possible via an RTM_SETLINK operation, trying to set a VLAN ID in the same operation may fail with EPERM. Specifically for the mlx5 driver this behavior was altered in the Linux kernel upstream [2] to avoid getting EPERM when trying to program VLAN 0. This may also get backported to older downstream kernels (e.g. [3]). However, Libvirt could potentially handle this case gracefully without needing a specific kernel version or depending on a specific driver fix. In the kernel a relevant call chain may look like do_setlink -> do_setvfinfo -> dev->netdev_ops->set_vf_vlan which calls a driver-specific function like [4] eventually. The equivalent ip link commands below provide an illustration: 1. This will work without an error: sudo ip link set enp130s0f0 vf 2 mac de:ad:be:ef:ca:fe 2. Setting (or clearing) a VLAN will fail with EPERM: sudo ip link set enp130s0f0 vf 2 vlan 0 RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted 3. This is what Libvirt attempts to do today when trying to clear a VF VLAN at the same time as programming a VF MAC: sudo ip link set enp130s0f0 vf 2 vlan 0 mac de:ad:be:ef:ca:fe RTNETLINK answers: Operation not permitted If setting an explicit VLAN ID results in an EPERM, clearing a VLAN (setting a VLAN ID to 0) can be handled gracefully by ignoring the EPERM error with the rationale being that if we cannot set this state in the first place, we cannot clear it either. Thus, virNetDevSetVfConfig is split into two distinct functions. If clearing a VLAN ID fails with EPERM when clearing is implicit, the error is simply ignored. For explicit clearing EPERM is still a fatal error. Both new functions rely virNetDevSendVfSetLinkRequest that implements common functionality related to formatting a request, sending it and handling error conditions and returns 0 or an error since in both cases the payload is either NLMSG_DONE (no error) or NLMSG_ERROR where an error message is needed by the caller to handle known cases appropriately. This function allows the conditional code to be unit tested. An alternative to this could be providing a higher level control plane mechanism that would provide metadata about a device being remotely managed in which case Libvirt would avoid trying to set or clear a VLAN ID. This would be more complicated since other software (like Nova in the OpenStack case) would have to annotate every guest device with an attribute indicating whether a device is remotely managed or not based on operator provided configuration so that Libvirt can act on this and avoid VLAN programming. https://gitlab.com/dmitriis/libvirt/-/pipelines/460293963 v8 change: * Rebased on top of the latest changes to Libvirt; * Added relevant upstream Linux and downstream kernel references to this cover letter.
