by Daniel Veillard 14 Jan '14

14 Jan '14

As planned, I just tagged Release Candidate 1 for libvirt and libvirt-python in git and pushed tarballs to the usual places: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/python I think I will make a release candidate 2 during the week-end or early monday, to target a release on the 15th. Please give it a try ! thanks, Daniel -- Daniel Veillard | Open Source and Standards, Red Hat veillard(a)redhat.com | libxml Gnome XML XSLT toolkit http://xmlsoft.org/ http://veillard.com/ | virtualization library http://libvirt.org/

[libvirt] libvirt on armhf with selinux driver
by Ivan Gooten 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

hi, recently i've been busy with libvirt(d) v1.2.0 and v1.2.1 from GIT on armhf and i see, even if selinux sec driver is enabled on the configure stage, the driver is not finally created. i pass these configure parameters: --with-selinux --with-secdriver-selinux --with-selinux-mount=/sys/fs/selinux the /sys/fs/selinux is valid, selinux is running in permissive mode, got also libselinux DEV package installed, so no missing req. headers here. when trying to run libvirtd, i'm getting: error : virSecurityDriverLookup:78 : unsupported configuration: Security driver selinux not enabled error : lxcSecurityInit:1461 : Failed to initialise security drivers error : virStateInitialize:854 : Initialisation of LXC state driver failed: unsupported configuration: Security driver selinux not enabled error : daemonRunStateInit:909 : Driver state initialisation failed here i provide the configure summary: http://pastebin.com/un0UnFCP for me it looks okay, and below is is the sestatus: SELinux status: enabled SELinuxfs mount: /sys/fs/selinux SELinux root directory: /etc/selinux Loaded policy name: default Current mode: permissive Mode from config file: permissive Policy MLS status: enabled Policy deny_unknown status: allowed Max kernel policy version: 28 the platform is running custom kernel 3.10 with debian testing a.k.a. jessie. also, my friend with the same configuration on rpi, except for his newer kernel, is having same stranginess. someone got any clue what may be causing this and/or howto debug this? thanks, ivan gooten

[libvirt] [PATCH] build: fix build on mingw with winpthreads
by Eric Blake 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

On my Fedora 20 box with mingw cross-compiler, the build failed with: ../../src/rpc/virnetclient.c: In function 'virNetClientSetTLSSession': ../../src/rpc/virnetclient.c:745:14: error: unused variable 'oldmask' [-Werror=unused-variable] sigset_t oldmask, blockedsigs; ^ I traced it to the fact that mingw64-winpthreads installs a header that does #define pthread_sigmask(...) 0, which means any argument only ever passeed to pthread_sigmask is reported as unused. This patch works around the compilation failure, with behavior no worse than what mingw already gives us regarding the function being a no-op. * configure.ac (pthread_sigmask): Probe for broken mingw macro. * src/util/virutil.h (pthread_sigmask): Rewrite to something that avoids unused variables.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Don't crash if a connection closes early
by Jiri Denemark 13 Jan '14

13 Jan '14

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1047577 When a client closes its connection to libvirtd early during virConnectOpen, more specifically just after making REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE call to check if VIR_DRV_FEATURE_PROGRAM_KEEPALIVE is supported without even waiting for the result, libvirtd may crash due to a race in keep-alive initialization. Once receiving the REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE call, the daemon's event loop delegates it to a worker thread. In case the event loop detects EOF on the connection and calls virNetServerClientClose before the worker thread starts to handle REMOTE_PROC_CONNECT_SUPPORTS_FEATURE call, client->keepalive will be disposed by the time virNetServerClientStartKeepAlive gets called from remoteDispatchConnectSupportsFeature. Because the flow is common for both authenticated and read-only connections, even unprivileged clients may cause the daemon to crash. To void the crash, virNetServerClientStartKeepAlive needs to check if the connection is still open before starting keep-alive protocol. Every libvirt release since 0.9.8 is affected by this bug.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] v3: spice: expose the disable file transfer option

Addressed Christophe's comments. Added filetransfer check in another test. I think now the setting should survive a dumpxml roundtrip, any suggestion for further improvement is of course welcome.
