[libvirt] [PATCH] util: remove some no-op thread functions
by Daniel P. Berrangé 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

Neither virThreadInitialize or virThreadOnExit do anything since we dropped the Win32 threads impl, in favour of win-pthreads. Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

[libvirt] Call for volunteers: LWN.net articles about KVM Forum talks
by Stefan Hajnoczi 18 Sep '19

18 Sep '19

Hi, LWN.net is a popular open source news site that covers Linux and other open source communities (Python, GNOME, Debian, etc). It has published a few KVM articles in the past too. Let's raise awareness of QEMU, KVM, and libvirt by submitting articles covering KVM Forum. I am looking for ~5 volunteers who are attending KVM Forum to write an article about a talk they find interesting. Please pick a talk you'd like to cover and reply to this email thread. I will then send an email to LWN with a heads-up so they can let us know if they are interested in publishing a KVM Forum special. I will not ask LWN.net for money. KVM Forum schedule: https://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/kvm-forum-2019/program/schedule/ LWN.net guidelines: https://lwn.net/op/AuthorGuide.lwn "Our general guideline is for articles to be around 1500 words in length, though somewhat longer or shorter can work too. The best articles cover a fairly narrow topic completely, without any big omissions or any extra padding." I volunteer to cover Michael Tsirkin's "VirtIO without the Virt - Towards Implementations in Hardware" talk. Thanks, Stefan

[libvirt] [RFC] quirks of interface target device name
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy 17 Sep '19

17 Sep '19

Hi, all I recently discovered that <target dev=''/> input is allowed[*] by qemu driver's defineXML for <interface> element. On start it will turn into 'tap<N>'. At the same time empty value is not allowed by schema. This name is generated by kernel on linux. I wonder how to deal with this. 1. Fix schema to allow empty value for dev attribute. Additionally fix migrating to clear out this autogenerated name. This way we have 2 options to autogenerate dev name. First as described above. Second is by ommiting target element. The naming will be 'vnet<N>' in the latter case. Having these 2 options looks redundant. 2. Don't allow to start domains with such configuration. We can not fail definition because disappearing VMs on libvirt update looks too unpleasant. This way we don't have two different set of autogenerated names. This can even go unnoticed given we fail such starts anyway after [1] (which is fixed by [*]). [1] is commited on 2018 Jul 23 and released in 4.6.0. However Centos 7 is based on 4.5.0 and virNetDevTapCreate has logic to copy generated tap name from kernel like since the beginning (I managed to follow the history to 2011). Nikolay [*] at least with recent "virStrncpy: fix to successfully copy empty string" applied [1] 7d70a63b util: Improve virStrncpy() implementation

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] Fix systemd socket activation for systemd < v227
by Michael Chapman 17 Sep '19

17 Sep '19

A couple of bugs were encountered using socket activated libvirtd on CentOS 7: - When resolving a tls_port/tcp_port from the config file (needed even when using socket activation on systemd < v227), the port endianness was incorrect. - The wrong name was used when checking whether libvirtd-tls.socket was passed to libvirtd, leading to this socket not being properly registered.
