[libvirt] [PATCH] Add documentation for C# "binding" and fix Windows documentation
by Richard W.M. Jones 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

This patch changes the bindings page so that the language names are emboldened and so that Java and C# are listed too. I've also listed Windows on that page, not strictly because it is a language, but because it's a platform. The existing documentation on building libvirt on Windows is bogus and possibly wrong. This patch also replaces that with a more accurate placeholder.

[libvirt] [PATCH] segfailt in openvz driver
by Evgeniy Sokolov 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

There was segmentation failt in openvz driver during 'create' command if domain with same id exist. Segfault was because of using structure (print warning with name of container) which is free. other: use openvzError instead of openvzLog.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Wrong comments
by Anton Protopopov 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi! In comments to structure 'virDomainInfo' there was reference to smth of type 'virDomainFlags'. Actually, the type of this field must be 'virDomainState'. Patch includes another one such replacement. There is another place where 'virDomainFlags' mentioned: src/xend_internal.c. I think, that argument must be of type 'virConnectFlags', but it is marked as ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED, so I leave the comment as it is :) And why are you writing unsigned char state; instead of virDomainState state; ?

[libvirt] [PATCH] spec file enhancements for minimal "client-only" build
by Ben Guthro 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Attached is a patch to add some additional options to the spec file, allowing for more flexibility when building. With this patch, it allows you to build a "client-only" version of libvirt for machines that may have an interest in communicating over the remote driver, but do not have a hypervisor themselves. It enables command line overrides of control variables for the build eg: rpmbuild $(RPM_FLAGS) --nodeps \ --without xen \ --without xen_proxy \ --without qemu \ --without openvz \ --without lxc \ --without polkit \ --without libvirtd \ --without avahi \ --without sasl \ --without python \ --without devel \ -ta --clean libvirt*.tar.gz Signed-off-by: Ben Guthro <bguthro(a)virtualiron.com> diff --git a/libvirt.spec.in b/libvirt.spec.in index 18b2127..666fb83 100644 --- a/libvirt.spec.in +++ b/libvirt.spec.in @@ -1,11 +1,16 @@ # -*- rpm-spec -*- -%define with_xen 1 -%define with_xen_proxy 1 -%define with_qemu 1 -%define with_openvz 1 -%define with_lxc 1 -%define with_polkit 0 +%define with_xen 0%{!?_without_xen:1} +%define with_xen_proxy 0%{!?_without_xen_proxy:1} +%define with_qemu 0%{!?_without_qemu:1} +%define with_openvz 0%{!?_without_openvz:1} +%define with_lxc 0%{!?_without_lxc:1} +%define with_sasl 0%{!?_without_sasl:1} +%define with_avahi 0%{!?_without_avahi:1} +%define with_polkit 0%{!?_without_polkit:0} +%define with_python 0%{!?_without_python:1} +%define with_libvirtd 0%{!?_without_libvirtd:1} +%define with_devel 0%{!?_without_devel:1} # Xen is available only on i386 x86_64 ia64 %ifnarch i386 i686 x86_64 ia64 @@ -23,7 +28,7 @@ %endif %if 0%{fedora} >= 8 -%define with_polkit 1 +%define with_polkit 0%{!?_without_polkit:1} %define with_xen_proxy 0 %endif @@ -46,10 +51,12 @@ Requires: iptables # So remote clients can access libvirt over SSH tunnel # (client invokes 'nc' against the UNIX socket on the server) Requires: nc +%if %{with_sasl} Requires: cyrus-sasl # Not technically required, but makes 'out-of-box' config # work correctly & doesn't have onerous dependencies Requires: cyrus-sasl-md5 +%endif %if %{with_polkit} Requires: PolicyKit >= 0.6 %endif @@ -82,14 +89,18 @@ BuildRequires: readline-devel BuildRequires: ncurses-devel BuildRequires: gettext BuildRequires: gnutls-devel +%if %{with_avahi} BuildRequires: avahi-devel +%endif BuildRequires: libselinux-devel BuildRequires: dnsmasq BuildRequires: bridge-utils %if %{with_qemu} BuildRequires: qemu %endif +%if %{with_sasl} BuildRequires: cyrus-sasl-devel +%endif %if %{with_polkit} BuildRequires: PolicyKit-devel >= 0.6 %endif @@ -119,6 +130,7 @@ BuildRequires: gawk Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). +%if %{with_devel} %package devel Summary: Libraries, includes, etc. to compile with the libvirt library Group: Development/Libraries @@ -132,7 +144,9 @@ Obsoletes: libvir-devel %description devel Includes and documentations for the C library providing an API to use the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). +%endif +%if %{with_python} %package python Summary: Python bindings for the libvirt library Group: Development/Libraries @@ -144,6 +158,7 @@ The libvirt-python package contains a module that permits applications written in the Python programming language to use the interface supplied by the libvirt library to use the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). +%endif %prep %setup -q @@ -190,6 +205,7 @@ install -d -m 0755 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_localstatedir}/lib/libvirt/images/ # Default dir for kernel+initrd images defnied in SELinux policy install -d -m 0755 $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_localstatedir}/lib/libvirt/boot/ +%if %{with_qemu} # We don't want to install /etc/libvirt/qemu/networks in the main %files list # because if the admin wants to delete the default network completely, we don't # want to end up re-incarnating it on every RPM upgrade. @@ -200,14 +216,33 @@ rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_sysconfdir}/libvirt/qemu/networks/default.xml rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_sysconfdir}/libvirt/qemu/networks/autostart/default.xml # Strip auto-generated UUID - we need it generated per-install sed -i -e "/<uuid>/d" $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_datadir}/libvirt/networks/default.xml +%endif %find_lang %{name} +# If we are not building with certain options, we need to remove files +# so that we don't get Installed (but unpackaged) errors +%if !

[libvirt] [PATCH] kvm: maxVCPU runtime detection
by Guido Günther 17 Sep '08

17 Sep '08

Hi, with recent linux kernels we can detect the maximum number of virtual cpus at runtime via an ioctl. Possible patch attached. It does this on every call to qemudGetMaxVCPUs. Would you prefer something that does this only once in qemudStartup()? Cheers, -- Guido
