[libvirt] [PATCH] Disable IPv6 socket auto-binding to IPv4 socket

[libvirt] Mounting a bare-metal folder as a drive
by Adam Mooz 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hello List, Still working on getting the DVD drive to go, but I got another question. I'm attempting to ad a folder located on the bare-metal machine to the VM and have it appear as a drive (such as HDD), is this possible? I've looked over the documentation and it suggests this is only possible for USB devices or virtual disks, but not a folder. How would I go about adding a folder located on the bare-metal to the VM to appear as a hard drive but still be accessable to the bare metal machine? ----------------------------------------------------------------- Adam Mooz Adam.Mooz(a)gmail.com AdamMooz(a)me.com http://www.AdamMooz.com

[libvirt] Possibly deadlock with tunnelled migration
by Cole Robinson 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hi Chris (and list), Playing with TUNNELLED migration, I'm hitting an issue. Take this example: VM URI = qemu+ssh://phys1/system destconn = qemu:///system invoking virDomainMigrate with a VM from the former URI, and destconn as the latter, we will deadlock. The qemu driver would be reopening it's local qemu:///system, and eventually lock up. We should probably add some sanity checking for the URI we plan to open. Aside from that, anyone have recommendations on the best way to handle the above situation? I'm currently improving the migration support in virt-manager, and if the TUNNELLED API requires opening a URI, it makes the remote-to-local migration case a bit annoying, because we would have to require the user to provide a remote accessible URI for the local system. Thanks, Cole

[libvirt] [PATCH] phyp: too much timeout when polling socket
by Eduardo Otubo 11 Nov '09

11 Nov '09

Hello all, Since I moved to libssh2 I had noticed a weird behaviour, virsh was taking too much time to complete the operations when using phyp driver. Just found the problem, 10 seconds of timeout passed to select(). Changed to zero, since I'm just polling the socket. Actually this patch is more important than it seems, now I can write a script (using virsh) to test all the phyp features. Thanks!
