[libvirt] [python PATCH] setup: Use cflags and ldflags properly
by Jiri Denemark 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

The setup.py script reads cflags and ldflags from pkg-config and uses them when compiling/linking C modules. Since both cflags and ldflags may include multiple compiler arguments we need to split them rather than concatenating them into a single argument.

[libvirt] [PATCH] rbd: Set r variable so it can be returned should an error occur

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] make containers memory settings API consistent
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

Typical HVM hypervisor has 2 memory settings - maximum and current memory. (there could be more memory options of course but let's consider these two and their correlation). Current limit is implemented via ballooning and is not greater than maximum. Containers are different, we need only one parameter to control their memory consumption - current memory. Memory settings API, domain XML schema and domain internal representation arises obviously for HVMs where we have 2 different parameters. How one should adopt it for containers? This patch series makes these 2 parameters synonyms for containers. 1. API - make maximum memory API behaviour same to just memory. 2. internally keep cur_balloon and initial (or total) the same. 3. ignore cur_ballon in XML (we do it already, just keep internal representation consistent) Nikolay Shirokovskiy (3): lxc: make maximum and current settings same conf: keep cur_balloon and initial_memory the same docs: update memory setting descripitons docs/formatdomain.html.in | 6 ++--- src/conf/domain_conf.c | 8 +++++-- src/libvirt-domain.c | 6 ++++- src/lxc/lxc_driver.c | 58 ++++++++++++----------------------------------- tools/virsh.pod | 6 +++++ 5 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 50 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemuTestDriverInit: fill driver with zeroes
by Michal Privoznik 18 Jan '16

18 Jan '16

In the commit aea47e48c473a we have fixed a single pointer within driver structure. Since all callers pass statically allocated driver on stack other pointers within driver may contain random values too. Before touching it lets overwrite it with zeroes and thus fix all dangling pointers.

[libvirt] [PATCH] Avoid wild securityManager pointer in tests
by Martin Kletzander 17 Jan '16

17 Jan '16

For some reason we are not setting the driver with memset() to zeros. But since commit 74abc3deac6e14ffa9151e425c6e6cd2b075aac5 driver->securityManager is being accessed and qemuagenttest started crashing due to that. Signed-off-by: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan(a)redhat.com> --- I chose to just clear the pointer instead of clearing the whole driver with memset() and opening another can of worms. But I would rather do memset() to zeros. however, that can be done after a discussion. This needs to be pushed under the build-breaker rule...

[libvirt] Trying to debug "Received unexpected event 3" from libvirt
by Yaniv Kaul 16 Jan '16

16 Jan '16

Hi, I'm trying to debug this issue, which may be affecting my inability to perform live snapshot. 1. I'm not sure what 'Waking up a tragedian" in the debug log means - what exactly is a tragedian? 2. In any case, it'd be great if the WARN would mention mon->await_event - is it the event libvirt is actually waiting for? (Both from qemu/qemu_agent.c) 3. I reckon event 3 is QEMU_AGENT_EVENT_RESET ? (from qemu/qemu_agent.h) 4. I'm also getting 'End of file while reading data: Input/output error' messages, not sure what they mean yet. (using 1.2.18.2-1 on FC23, trying to live-snapshot VMs (with Centos 6 & 7 in them, all with qemu guest agent, AFAIK). TIA, Y.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] Misc fixes
by Cédric Bosdonnat 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

Hi all, Here are a few patches without strong connection together. The first one only allows us not to package virt-login-shell even with lxc driver enabled. The other ones are related to mounts security. I'm wondering if changing the default dropped capabilities in the lxc driver is acceptable... dropping sys_admin makes sense, but it can introduce incompatibilities for users needing it as they will need to explicitely enable it.

A device tree binary file specified by /domain/os/dtb element is a read-only resource similar to kernel and initrd files.

[libvirt] [PATCH] security: Do not restore kernel and initrd labels
by Jiri Denemark 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

Kernel/initrd files are essentially read-only shareable images and thus should be handled in the same way. We already use the appropriate label for kernel/initrd files when starting a domain, but when a domain gets destroyed we would remove the labels which would make other running domains using the same files very unhappy. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=921135 Signed-off-by: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar(a)redhat.com> --- src/security/security_dac.c | 8 -------- src/security/security_selinux.c | 8 -------- 2 files changed, 16 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/security/security_dac.c b/src/security/security_dac.c index 80709fe..378b922 100644 --- a/src/security/security_dac.c +++ b/src/security/security_dac.c @@ -1128,14 +1128,6 @@ virSecurityDACRestoreAllLabel(virSecurityManagerPtr mgr, virSecurityDACRestoreFileLabel(priv, def->os.loader->nvram) < 0) rc = -1; - if (def->os.kernel && - virSecurityDACRestoreFileLabel(priv, def->os.kernel) < 0) - rc = -1; - - if (def->os.initrd && - virSecurityDACRestoreFileLabel(priv, def->os.initrd) < 0) - rc = -1; - if (def->os.dtb && virSecurityDACRestoreFileLabel(priv, def->os.dtb) < 0) rc = -1; diff --git a/src/security/security_selinux.c b/src/security/security_selinux.c index 721c451..475cdbc 100644 --- a/src/security/security_selinux.c +++ b/src/security/security_selinux.c @@ -2034,14 +2034,6 @@ virSecuritySELinuxRestoreAllLabel(virSecurityManagerPtr mgr, virSecuritySELinuxRestoreFileLabel(mgr, def->os.loader->nvram) < 0) rc = -1; - if (def->os.kernel && - virSecuritySELinuxRestoreFileLabel(mgr, def->os.kernel) < 0) - rc = -1; - - if (def->os.initrd && - virSecuritySELinuxRestoreFileLabel(mgr, def->os.initrd) < 0) - rc = -1; - if (def->os.dtb && virSecuritySELinuxRestoreFileLabel(mgr, def->os.dtb) < 0) rc = -1; -- 2.7.0

[libvirt] Entering freeze for libvirt-1.3.1
by Daniel Veillard 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

As suggested this w.e., I just tagged the release candidate 1 in git and pushed signed tarball and rpms to the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ This works fine with my limited testing, but obviously more people need to give it some trial especially on other platforms. The output from CentOS CI is mostly green which is a good sign with just libvirt-daemon-rpm and virt-manager-test in the red, someone probably need to have a look before we release. The rc2 should come in 2 days on Thursday, and unless there is some blocker I plan to push 1.3.1 over the week-end, so please give it some testing !

[libvirt] Quantifying libvirt errors in launching the libguestfs appliance
by Richard W.M. Jones 15 Jan '16

15 Jan '16

As people may know, we frequently encounter errors caused by libvirt when running the libguestfs appliance. I wanted to find out exactly how frequently these happen and classify the errors, so I ran the 'virt-df' tool overnight 1700 times. This tool runs several parallel qemu:///session libvirt connections both creating a short-lived appliance guest. Note that I have added Cole's patch to fix https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1271183 "XML-RPC error : Cannot write data: Transport endpoint is not connected" Results: The test failed 538 times (32% of the time), which is pretty dismal. To be fair, virt-df is aggressive about how it launches parallel libvirt connections. Most other virt-* tools use only a single libvirt connection and are consequently more reliable. Of the failures, 518 (96%) were of the form: process exited while connecting to monitor: qemu: could not load kernel '/home/rjones/d/libguestfs/tmp/.guestfs-1000/appliance.d/kernel': Permission denied which is https://bugzilla.redhat.com/921135 or maybe https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1269975. It's not clear to me if these bugs have different causes, but if they do then potentially we're seeing a mix of both since my test has no way to distinguish them. 19 of the failures (4%) were of the form: process exited while connecting to monitor: fread() failed which I believe is a previously unknown bug. I have filed it as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1298122 Finally there was 1 failure: Unable to read from monitor: Connection reset by peer which I believe is also a new bug. I have filed it as https://bugzilla.redhat.com/1298124 I would be good if libvirt could routinely test the case of multiple parallel launches of qemu:///session, since it still contains bugs even after Cole's fixes.

Reposting my cgroup fixes series: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-January/msg00236.html partially because I originally forgot to CC the author (Henning Schild) of the original series for which these patch fix a couple of issues discovered during regression testing (virt-test memtune failures in Red Hat regression environment), but also to bring them up to date with the top of libvirt git. NB: I did send Henning the changes after the fact, but my resend using the same message-id skills so that replies are left in the onlist series are lacking. Henning has looked at the first patch - with a response here: http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2016-January/msg00443.html Finally, I think these changes should go into 1.3.1 since that's when the regression was introduced.

[libvirt] [RFC] memory settings interface for containers
by Nikolay Shirokovskiy 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

Hi, everyone. I plan to add means to configure vz containers memory setting and have trouble getting it done thru libvirt interface. Looks like current interface fits good for vm memory managment but its not clear how to use it with containers. First let's take aside memory hotplugging which is obviously not suitable for containers. Then memory interface is represented by 2 parameters: total_memory and cur_balloon. For VMs total_memory can't be changed at runtime, cur_ballon can't be greater than total_memory. But for containers memory model is different. We have only one parameter and it can be changed for running domains. So question is how to map this model to existing interface (it is unlikely to have a new interface for this case). I plan to make both parameters to have same meaning and be equal for containers and update virsh, API and xml model documentation accordingly. I'd be happy to hear core developers opinions on this topic.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/7] Per domain bandwidth settings
by Alexander Burluka 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

We decide to make a global per domain bandwidth setting as were discussed in mailing list earlier. This patchset implements hierarchy top level cpu.cfs_period_us and cpu.cfs_quota_us control knob. I've named this parameters as global_period and global_quota. Alexander Burluka (7): Add global period definitions Add global quota parameter necessary definitions Add error checking on global quota and period Add new cgroup thread type Rename qemuSetupCgroupVcpuBW to qemuSetupBandwidthCgroup Implement qemuSetupGlobalCpuCgroup Implement handling of per-domain bandwidth settings docs/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 10 ++++ include/libvirt/libvirt-domain.h | 32 ++++++++++ src/conf/domain_conf.c | 37 ++++++++++++ src/conf/domain_conf.h | 2 + src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c | 78 +++++++++++++++++++++--- src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.h | 7 ++- src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 3 +- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 125 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- src/qemu/qemu_process.c | 4 ++ src/util/vircgroup.c | 4 ++ src/util/vircgroup.h | 1 + 11 files changed, 287 insertions(+), 16 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1

[libvirt] [PATCH] conf: Initialize 'deflate' for balloon parse XML
by John Ferlan 14 Jan '16

14 Jan '16

Commit id '7bf3198df' neglected to initialize deflate leading to a possibility if model allocation/checks fail, then the VIR_FREE(deflate) would be erroneous. Noted by Jan Tomko. Signed-off-by: John Ferlan <jferlan(a)redhat.com> --- I would have pushed as trivial, but it still wasn't 100% clear that this was the only 'issue' Jan was concerned about... src/conf/domain_conf.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/conf/domain_conf.c b/src/conf/domain_conf.c index 1e78da1..a9706b0 100644 --- a/src/conf/domain_conf.c +++ b/src/conf/domain_conf.c @@ -11354,7 +11354,7 @@ virDomainMemballoonDefParseXML(xmlNodePtr node, unsigned int flags) { char *model; - char *deflate; + char *deflate = NULL; virDomainMemballoonDefPtr def; xmlNodePtr save = ctxt->node; unsigned int period = 0; -- 2.5.0
