[libvirt] ssh from host to guest on default network
by Kay Williams 31 May '11

31 May '11

Hello, I am looking for an reliable, scriptable method to 1) install a kvm guest using the default network and 2) ssh from the host to the guest to perform machine maintenance (e.g. yum update). Ideally, this would be done by providing a host name for the guest during install (e.g. virt-install --name <myname> ...), and then by ssh'ing to the machine using the provided hostname (e.g. ssh <myname>) and a username/password or preconfigured certificate. The trouble I am having is with ssh'ing from the host to guest machine. 1. I can't (easily) use the guest hostname, as the host isn't automatically configured to resolve guest names. 2. I can't (easily) use the guest IP address (e.g. read from /var/lib/libvirt/dnsmasq/default.leases), as the IP addresses are dynamic and can change when the guest is reinstalled (which I am doing a fair amount, at least in testing). 3. I can't (easily) assign the guest a static IP address, as the default network configuration assumes all IP addresses in the range can be dynamically allocated, and thus a statically assigned IP might conflict. I can work around these issues in a variety of unfortunate ways. But I wonder if there is something elegant I am missing. If not, this would be a very nice feature for the future.... Thanks, Kay

[libvirt] [PATCH] Add support for 'passthru' mode for direct network interfaces
by D. Herrendoerfer 30 May '11

30 May '11

Hi all, starting with kernel 2.6.38 macvtap supports a 'passthru' mode for attaching virtual functions of a SRIOV capable network card directly to a VM. This patch adds the capability to configure such a device.

[libvirt] [PATCH RFC] Add domainSave/Restore to libxl driver
by Markus Groß 30 May '11

30 May '11

This patch adds save/restore functionality to the libxl driver. It is a v2 of this patch: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-April/msg00338.html v2: * header is now padded and has a version field * the correct restore function from libxl is used * only create the restore event once in libxlVmStart However I ran into a reproducible segfault. Assume you saved a vm with: # virsh save domU foo.img If you restore the save image, destroy the vm and restore it again, a segfault occurs: # virsh restore foo.img # virsh destroy domU # virsh restore foo.img # segfault If you restart libvirt between the restores no segfault occurs: # virsh restore foo.img # virsh destroy domU # restart libvirt # virsh restore foo.img According to a gdb backtrace a memcpy from the function xc_domain_restore is causing the segfault. Then I saved a vm with the xl tool (which also uses the libxenlight interface) and restored it twice. No segfault occured. So I figured something must went wrong in libvirt. However I was unable to identify the responsible part of code. Now I am hoping that a review will possibly solve this issue. Here is the gdb backtrace: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3 v2] More graceful handling of QEMU monitor failures
by Daniel P. Berrange 29 May '11

29 May '11

An update of https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-May/msg00657.html Currently when libvirt has a serious error doing I/O and/or parsing of the QEMU monitor, it will kill off the guest. Application developers have expressed a desire for more graceful handling of this scenario. In particular to allow the guest OS to continue to run, without any further monitor interactons, and then kill/restart it at a time which is convenient to the guest admin/apps. New in this posting: - Change the name of the event to 'CONTROL_ERROR' and use the generic callback, instead of passing a type field - Add python dispatch code - Add 3rd patch to improve qemu monitor error reporting

It was suggested during review of a different patch that the libvirt interface driver API's should have "netcf:" in their log messages. This patch eliminates that from all interface driver API functions, and also eliminates the extra " - " in the case that netcf returns no details in its error info (which *never* happens at present, but could happen sometime in the future. --- src/interface/netcf_driver.c | 79 +++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- 1 files changed, 47 insertions(+), 32 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/interface/netcf_driver.c b/src/interface/netcf_driver.c index b5b4f79..dd15c9d 100644 --- a/src/interface/netcf_driver.c +++ b/src/interface/netcf_driver.c @@ -107,8 +107,9 @@ static struct netcf_if *interfaceDriverGetNetcfIF(struct netcf *ncf, virInterfac int errcode = ncf_error(ncf, &errmsg, &details); if (errcode != NETCF_NOERROR) { interfaceReportError(netcf_to_vir_err(errcode), - _("couldn't find interface named '%s' (netcf: %s - %s)"), - ifinfo->name, errmsg, details ? details : ""); + _("couldn't find interface named '%s': %s%s%s"), + ifinfo->name, errmsg, details ?

I agree but it can also be a chicken and the egg problem. Actually 1/2/3/5 are already working today regardless of live snapshots. > Is anyone familiar enough with the libvirt storage APIs to draft an > extension that adds snapshot support? I will take a stab at it if no > one else want to try it. I added libvirt-list and Ayal Baron from vdsm. What you're asking is even beyond snapshots, it's the whole management of VM images. Doing the above operations is simple but for enterprise virtualization solution you'll need to lock the NFS/SAN images, handle failures of VM/SAN/Mgmt, keep the snapshots info in mgmt DB, etc. Today it is managed by a combination of rhev-m/vdsm and libvirt. I agree it would have been nice to get such common single entry point interface. > > Stefan

[libvirt] [PATCH] Add domainCoreDump to libxl driver
by Markus Groß 27 May '11

27 May '11

For core dumping to work correctly the following patch for xen is needed: http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-devel/2011-05/msg01469.html This patch is in xen-unstable and is considered for backport to the xen stable branches. Without this patch the mapped memory pages of the pv guest are not unmapped after core-dump. --- src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 87 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 files changed, 87 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c index b2cc0e8..75008db 100644 --- a/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c +++ b/src/libxl/libxl_driver.c @@ -1627,6 +1627,92 @@ libxlDomainGetState(virDomainPtr dom, } static int +libxlDomainCoreDump(virDomainPtr dom, const char *to, int flags) +{ + libxlDriverPrivatePtr driver = dom->conn->privateData; + libxlDomainObjPrivatePtr priv; + virDomainObjPtr vm; + virDomainEventPtr event = NULL; + int paused = 0; + int ret = -1; + + virCheckFlags(VIR_DUMP_LIVE | VIR_DUMP_CRASH, -1); + + libxlDriverLock(driver); + vm = virDomainFindByUUID(&driver->domains, dom->uuid); + + if (!vm) { + char uuidstr[VIR_UUID_STRING_BUFLEN]; + virUUIDFormat(dom->uuid, uuidstr); + libxlError(VIR_ERR_NO_DOMAIN, + _("No domain with matching uuid '%s'"), uuidstr); + goto cleanup; + } + + if (!virDomainObjIsActive(vm)) { + libxlError(VIR_ERR_OPERATION_INVALID, "%s", _("Domain is not running")); + goto cleanup; + } + + priv = vm->privateData; + + if (!(flags & VIR_DUMP_LIVE) && + virDomainObjGetState(vm, NULL) == VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING) { + if (libxl_domain_pause(&priv->ctx, dom->id) != 0) { + libxlError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, + _("Failed to suspend domain '%d' with libxenlight"), + dom->id); + goto cleanup; + } + virDomainObjSetState(vm, VIR_DOMAIN_PAUSED, VIR_DOMAIN_PAUSED_DUMP); + paused = 1; + } + + if (libxl_domain_core_dump(&priv->ctx, dom->id, to) != 0) { + libxlError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, + _("Failed to dump core of domain '%d' with libxenlight"), + dom->id); + goto cleanup; + } + + if (flags & VIR_DUMP_CRASH) { + if (libxlVmReap(driver, vm, 1, VIR_DOMAIN_SHUTOFF_CRASHED) != 0) { + libxlError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, + _("Failed to destroy domain '%d'"), dom->id); + goto cleanup; + } + + event = virDomainEventNewFromObj(vm, VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STOPPED, + VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STOPPED_CRASHED); + + } else if (paused) { + if (libxl_domain_unpause(&priv->ctx, dom->id) != 0) { + libxlError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, + _("Failed to resume domain '%d' with libxenlight"), + dom->id); + goto cleanup; + } + virDomainObjSetState(vm, VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING, + VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_UNPAUSED); + } + + if ((flags & VIR_DUMP_CRASH) && !vm->persistent) { + virDomainRemoveInactive(&driver->domains, vm); + vm = NULL; + } + + ret = 0; + +cleanup: + if (vm) + virDomainObjUnlock(vm); + if (event) + libxlDomainEventQueue(driver, event); + libxlDriverUnlock(driver); + return ret; +} + +static int libxlDomainSetVcpusFlags(virDomainPtr dom, unsigned int nvcpus, unsigned int flags) { @@ -2722,6 +2808,7 @@ static virDriver libxlDriver = { .domainSetMemoryFlags = libxlDomainSetMemoryFlags, /* 0.9.0 */ .domainGetInfo = libxlDomainGetInfo, /* 0.9.0 */ .domainGetState = libxlDomainGetState, /* 0.9.2 */ + .domainCoreDump = libxlDomainCoreDump, /* 0.9.2 */ .domainSetVcpus = libxlDomainSetVcpus, /* 0.9.0 */ .domainSetVcpusFlags = libxlDomainSetVcpusFlags, /* 0.9.0 */ .domainGetVcpusFlags = libxlDomainGetVcpusFlags, /* 0.9.0 */ -- 1.7.5.1
