[libvirt] [PATCH 0/5] Add support for setting the emulator scheduler parameters
by Martin Kletzander 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

I/O threads and vCPU threads already support setting schedulers, but until now it was impossible to do so for the main QEMU thread (emulator thread in the libvirt naming). This is, however, requested for some very specific scenarios, for example when vCPU threads are running at such priority that could starve the main thread.

[libvirt] [keycodemapdb PATCH] keymap-gen: Name sections in pod output
by Andrea Bolognani 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

Properly formatted man pages have at least a NAME section, which tools like apropos(1) parse and index. The current implementation of PodLanguageGenerator doesn't generate this section, and even if the user were to try and work around the limitation by passing --varname=NAME, there would still be nothing in the section to actually parse. Change the generator so that varname will be used as the contents of the NAME section, add a DESCRIPTION section in which values are listed.

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Don't cache microcode version
by Jiri Denemark 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

My earlier commit be46f61326 was incomplete. It removed caching of microcode version in the CPU driver, which means the capabilities XML will see the correct microcode version. But it is also cached in the QEMU capabilities cache where it is used to detect whether we need to reprobe QEMU. By missing the second place, the original commit be46f61326 made the situation even worse since libvirt would report correct microcode version while still using the old host CPU model (visible in domain capabilities XML).

[libvirt] Cleaning up libvirt.git tags
by Andrea Bolognani 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

We have four types of tags in libvirt.git right now: * vX.Y.Z: we have one of these per release, starting with v0.1.0 from April 2006 and going all the way to v5.2.0 from April 2019 (but see below). Most of them[1] are PGP-signed. * LIBVIR(T)_X_Y_Z: these point to the same commit as the ones above, but the last one we created is for v0.6.5 from July 2009; not a single one is PGP-signed. * CVE-YYYY-*: these point to the commit fixing the corresponding vulnerability. We seem to have stopped creating them in 2017, even though we definitely have had to deal with CVEs since ;) * LIBXEN_FIRST_COMMIT: one-of-a-kind tag pointing to the second ever (!) libvirt (!) commit. Of course the project was still called libxen back then, but this is the only surviving tag to reference the old name. Interestingly[2] enough, a few releases seem to have partially or completely slipped through the cracks: version commit tag tarball --------- -------------- ----- --------- v0.1.2 | 567b42ce6a07 | no | no v0.1.5 | 786e029cd743 | no | yes v0.4.0 | 6cb028991705 | no | yes v0.4.3 | 7db4c905d745 | no | yes v0.4.5 | 9d3d43436eac | no | yes Note that I stopped checking at v0.6.5, so there might actually be more. Anyway, since the LIBVIR(T)_X_Y_Z tags are a strict subset of the vX.Y.Z tags, and we have abandoned that naming scheme a decade ago, all they're doing right now is clutter the output of 'git tag' and I would suggest getting rid of them; same goes for that lonely, lonely LIBXEN_FIRST_COMMIT tag, which serves no real purpose other than reminding us that the project was named differently for, like, an entire month. As for the missing release commits, I see no harm in creating them retroactively for completeness' sake, but if nobody can be bothered doing that I'll also fully understand :) The CVE tags... I really don't have an opinion there. Thoughts? [1] Though not all of them: I'm pointing my finger at you, Cole! :P [2] Well, to me at least. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization

[libvirt] [PATCH for-QEMU-4.1] Declare -realtime as deprecated
by Thomas Huth 15 Apr '19

15 Apr '19

The old -realtime mlock=on|off parameter does exactly the same as the new -overcommit mem-lock=on|off parameter. Additionally, "-realtime" does not activate any additional "realtime" capabilities as the name might indicate. We should avoid to confuse the users this way, so let's deprecate the old -realtime option.
