[libvirt] website: API reference for virterror contains libvirt API also
by Matthias Bolte 17 Jan '11

17 Jan '11

The API reference website [1] for virterror contains the API reference for virterror as expected. But the complete libvirt API reference, that is already found at [2], is appended too. I looked into the XSLT process that generates those two HTML files from the libvirt-api.xml to understand why this happens, but I couldn't locate the problem.

[libvirt] [PATCH] tests: Remove obsolete secaatest
by Matthias Bolte 16 Jan '11

16 Jan '11

Before the security driver was refactored in d6623003 seclabeltest and secaatest were basically the same. seclabeltest was meant for SELinux and secaatest for AppArmor. Both tests exited early when the specific security driver backend wasn't enabled. With the new security manager trying to initialize a disabled security driver backend is an error that can't be distinguished from other errors anymore. Therefore, the updated seclabeltest just asks for the first available backend as this will always work even with SELinux and AppArmor backend being disabled due to the new Nop backend. Remove the obsolete secaatest and compile and run the seclabeltest unconditional. This fixes make check on systems that support AppArmor. --- tests/Makefile.am | 24 ------------------------ tests/secaatest.c | 45 --------------------------------------------- 2 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 69 deletions(-) delete mode 100644 tests/secaatest.c diff --git a/tests/Makefile.am b/tests/Makefile.am index 345cf46..72beb23 100644 --- a/tests/Makefile.am +++ b/tests/Makefile.am @@ -98,13 +98,7 @@ if WITH_VMX check_PROGRAMS += vmx2xmltest xml2vmxtest endif -if WITH_SECDRIVER_SELINUX check_PROGRAMS += seclabeltest -endif - -if WITH_SECDRIVER_APPARMOR -check_PROGRAMS += secaatest -endif if WITH_CIL check_PROGRAMS += object-locking @@ -191,13 +185,7 @@ if WITH_VMX TESTS += vmx2xmltest xml2vmxtest endif -if WITH_SECDRIVER_SELINUX TESTS += seclabeltest -endif - -if WITH_SECDRIVER_APPARMOR -TESTS += secaatest -endif if WITH_LIBVIRTD check_PROGRAMS += eventtest @@ -376,21 +364,9 @@ commandhelper_SOURCES = \ commandhelper_CFLAGS = -Dabs_builddir="\"`pwd`\"" commandhelper_LDADD = $(LDADDS) -if WITH_SECDRIVER_SELINUX seclabeltest_SOURCES = \ seclabeltest.c seclabeltest_LDADD = ../src/libvirt_driver_security.la $(LDADDS) -else -EXTRA_DIST += seclabeltest.c -endif - -if WITH_SECDRIVER_APPARMOR -secaatest_SOURCES = \ - secaatest.c -secaatest_LDADD = ../src/libvirt_driver_security.la $(LDADDS) -else -EXTRA_DIST += secaatest.c -endif qparamtest_SOURCES = \ qparamtest.c testutils.h testutils.c diff --git a/tests/secaatest.c b/tests/secaatest.c deleted file mode 100644 index d9d6b4a..0000000 --- a/tests/secaatest.c +++ /dev/null @@ -1,45 +0,0 @@ -#include <config.h> - -#include <unistd.h> -#include <stdlib.h> -#include <stdio.h> -#include <string.h> -#include <errno.h> -#include "security/security_driver.h" - -int -main (int argc ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED, char **argv ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED) -{ - int ret; - - const char *doi, *model; - virSecurityDriverPtr security_drv; - - ret = virSecurityDriverStartup (&security_drv, "apparmor", false); - if (ret == -1) - { - fprintf (stderr, "Failed to start security driver"); - exit (-1); - } - /* No security driver wanted to be enabled: just return */ - if (ret == -2) - return 0; - - model = virSecurityDriverGetModel (security_drv); - if (!model) - { - fprintf (stderr, "Failed to copy secModel model: %s", - strerror (errno)); - exit (-1); - } - - doi = virSecurityDriverGetDOI (security_drv); - if (!doi) - { - fprintf (stderr, "Failed to copy secModel DOI: %s", - strerror (errno)); - exit (-1); - } - - return 0; -} -- 1.7.0.4

[libvirt] Bug in virsh memtune on RHEL6?
by Justin Clift 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

Hi all, Getting strange numbers from the virsh memtune command on RHEL 6. (git head compiled, rather than RHEL 6 packages) virsh # list Id Name State ---------------------------------- 4 Fedora_14_x64 running virsh # memtune Fedora_14_x64 hard_limit : 9007199254740991 soft_limit : 9007199254740991 swap_hard_limit: 9007199254740991 Those numbers are supposed to be kilobytes, but the host box itself only has 12GB ram. Bug? Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift

[libvirt] OpenVZ and Libvirt
by Nathan Stratton 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

I have been working to get libvirt to work with openvz and kvm. I have had no issues with KVM but libvirt is hit or miss. Sometimes I get it to work, but most of the time I get back "out of memory". I have tried all recent versions of libvirt and vzctl from openvz.

[libvirt] [PATCHv2] Enable tuning of qemu network tap device "sndbuf" size
by Laine Stump 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

This is in response to a request in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665293 In short, under heavy load, it's possible for qemu's networking to lock up due to the tap device's default 1MB sndbuf being inadequate. adding "sndbuf=0" to the qemu commandline -netdevice option will alleviate this problem (sndbuf=0 actually sets it to 0xffffffff). Because we must be able to explicitly specify "0" as a value, the standard practice of "0 means not specified" won't work here. Instead, virDomainNetDef also has a sndbuf_specified, which defaults to 0, but is set to 1 if some value was given. The sndbuf value is put inside a <tune> element of each <interface> in the domain. The intent is that further tunable settings will also be placed inside this element. <interface type='network'> ... <tune> <sndbuf>0</sndbuf> ... </tune> </interface> --- Changes from V1: sndbuf_specified is now a bool rather than an int bitfield. sndbuf is now unsigned long.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] Update qemu password support (v2)
by Marc-André Lureau 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

Recently, QEMU learned set_password and expire_password monitor commands. http://qemu.com/qemu.git/commit/?id=7572150c189c6553c2448334116ab717680de66d The following patches make use of these new commands if available, and fallback on VNC-only password support. Change since v1: - moved qemuInitGraphicsPasswords to qemu_hotplug, renamed to qemuDomainChangeGraphicsPasswords. - updated what looks like a typo (that appears to work anyway) in initial patch from Daniel: - ret = qemuInitGraphicsPasswords(driver, vm, - VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_TYPE_SPICE, - &vm->def->graphics[0]->data.vnc.auth, - driver->vncPassword); + ret = qemuInitGraphicsPasswords(driver, vm, + VIR_DOMAIN_GRAPHICS_TYPE_SPICE, + &vm->def->graphics[0]->data.spice.auth, + driver->spicePassword); Marc-André Lureau (2): qemu: add set_password and expire_password monitor commands Use the new set_password monitor command to set password. src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 22 ++++---- src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c | 114 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.h | 5 ++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c | 77 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h | 7 +++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c | 56 ++++++++++++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h | 7 +++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c | 69 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h | 7 +++ 9 files changed, 346 insertions(+), 18 deletions(-) -- 1.7.3.4

[libvirt] [PATCHv2] Add XML config switch to enable/disable vhost-net support
by Laine Stump 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

This patch is in response to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643050 The existing libvirt support for the vhost-net backend to the virtio network driver happens automatically - if the vhost-net device is available, it is always enabled, otherwise the standard userland virtio backend is used. This patch makes it possible to force whether or not vhost-net is used with a bit of XML. Adding a <driver> element to the interface XML, eg: <interface type="network"> <model type="virtio"/> <driver name="vhost"/> will force use of vhost-net (if it's not available, the domain will fail to start). if driver name="qemu", vhost-net will not be used even if it is available. If there is no <driver name='xxx'/> in the config, libvirt will revert to the pre-existing automatic behavior - use vhost-net if it's available, and userland backend if vhost-net isn't available. --- Changes from V1: enum now starts at 0 instead of -1. I just disallow "default" when parsing. This eliminates the need for vhost_specified.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Fix 'make check' after commit 04197350
by Jim Fehlig 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

I broke 'make check' with commit 04197350 by unconditionally emitting 'hap=' in xen xm driver. Only emit 'hap=' if xendConfigVersion >= 3. I've tested sending 'hap=' to a Xen 3.2 machine without support for hap setting and verified that xend silently drops the unrecognized setting. --- src/xen/xm_internal.c | 9 +++++---- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/xen/xm_internal.c b/src/xen/xm_internal.c index ec618aa..bfb6698 100644 --- a/src/xen/xm_internal.c +++ b/src/xen/xm_internal.c @@ -2413,10 +2413,11 @@ virConfPtr xenXMDomainConfigFormat(virConnectPtr conn, (1 << VIR_DOMAIN_FEATURE_APIC)) ? 1 : 0) < 0) goto no_memory; - if (xenXMConfigSetInt(conf, "hap", - (def->features & - (1 << VIR_DOMAIN_FEATURE_HAP)) ? 1 : 0) < 0) - goto no_memory; + if (priv->xendConfigVersion >= 3) + if (xenXMConfigSetInt(conf, "hap", + (def->features & + (1 << VIR_DOMAIN_FEATURE_HAP)) ? 1 : 0) < 0) + goto no_memory; if (def->clock.offset == VIR_DOMAIN_CLOCK_OFFSET_LOCALTIME) { if (def->clock.data.timezone) { -- 1.7.3.1

[libvirt] [PATCH] Enable tuning of qemu network tap device "sndbuf" size
by Laine Stump 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

This is in response to a request in: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=665293 In short, under heavy load, it's possible for qemu's networking to lock up due to the tap device's default 1MB sndbuf being inadequate. adding "sndbuf=0" to the qemu commandline -netdevice option will alleviate this problem (sndbuf=0 actually sets it to 0xffffffff). Because we must be able to explicitly specify "0" as a value, the standard practice of "0 means not specified" won't work here. Instead, virDomainNetDef also has a sndbuf_specified, which defaults to 0, but is set to 1 if some value was given. The sndbuf value is put inside a <tune> element of each <interface> in the domain. The intent is that further tunable settings will also be placed inside this elemnent. <interface type='network'> ... <tune> <sndbuf>0</sndbuf> ... </tune> </interface> --- Note that in qemuBuildHostNetStr() I have moved if (vhostfd && *vhostfd) { virBufferVSprintf(&buf, ",vhost=on,vhostfd=%s", vhostfd); into a newly created "if (is_tap) { ... }" block. This always should have been inside such a conditional, but none existed until now. (I can make this a separate patch if anyone wants, but it seemed so simple and obvious that I took the slothenly way out :-) Also, as with the vhost patch, I didn't get the html docs updated for this addition either. I will add both in a single followup patch next week. docs/schemas/domain.rng | 10 ++++++++++ src/conf/domain_conf.c | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- src/conf/domain_conf.h | 4 ++++ src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- 4 files changed, 60 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/schemas/domain.rng b/docs/schemas/domain.rng index 6d0654d..e2883aa 100644 --- a/docs/schemas/domain.rng +++ b/docs/schemas/domain.rng @@ -1025,6 +1025,16 @@ <ref name="filterref-node-attributes"/> </element> </optional> + <optional> + <element name="tune"> + <optional> +  + <element name="sndbuf"> + <ref name="unsignedInt"/> + </element> + </optional> + </element> + </optional> </interleave> </define> <define name="virtualPortProfile"> diff --git a/src/conf/domain_conf.c b/src/conf/domain_conf.c index 04ed502..5d1b8cf 100644 --- a/src/conf/domain_conf.c +++ b/src/conf/domain_conf.c @@ -2280,6 +2280,7 @@ err_exit: static virDomainNetDefPtr virDomainNetDefParseXML(virCapsPtr caps, xmlNodePtr node, + xmlXPathContextPtr ctxt, int flags ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED) { virDomainNetDefPtr def;
