[libvirt] [PATCH] news: add note about optional "Removed features" section

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] qemu_hotplug: Check for duplicate drive addresses
by Michal Privoznik 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

This is an alternative approach to: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-March/msg01111.html which caused regression to which a proposed fix is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-April/msg00756.html One of the selling points was that having this check in virDomainDefCompatibleDevice() will fix the problem across all drivers. Well, turns out, some drivers don't care (e.g. lxc) and some have a different workflow and thus don't need that check.

[libvirt] Why virsh domxml-to-native qemu-argv changes PCI slot number

[libvirt] [PATCH v1 0/4] RFC CPU Model Comparison via QMP
by Collin Walling 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

This is a preview of the CPU comparison (and soon baseline) patches. Comments are welcome on all aspects, as they will help guide the development of the baseline implementation. The first couple of patches simply refactor code. The first introduces an XML -> CPU def helper to be used to extract the CPU definition prior to sending it to the comparison functions. The second patch refactors some of the code from CPU model expansion to be later used by comparison and baseline. Currently, only one of the functions from the refactoring is reused for comparison. The other two will come into play when baseline is implemented. The third is the typical "new capability" patch to introduce query-cpu-model-comparison and test data for s390x. The last patch implements the qemuMonitorJSON function for query-cpu-model-comparison and hooks it up to virsh hypervisor-cpu-compare. This is posted as an RFC to make sure these patches are set in the correct direction before tackling the baseline patches. Thanks!

[libvirt] [PATCH] testQemuGetLatestCaps: Lower chances of hash collision
by Michal Privoznik 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

This function creates a list of paths to the latest capabilities and returns them in a hash table where key is an arch string and value is the path. Well, we know how many arches there are so might as well use that as initial hash size.

[libvirt] [PATCH v2 00/11] conf: partial net model enum conversion
by Cole Robinson 18 Apr '19

18 Apr '19

v1 here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-January/msg00763.html Changes since v1: - patch #7, case insensitive model input comparison - Add xml2xml testing - compile tested on freebsd12.0 This series partially converts the net->model value from a string to an enum. We wrap the existing ->model string in accessor functions, rename it to ->modelstr, add a ->model enum, and convert internal driver usage bit by bit. At the end, all driver code that is acting on specific network model values is comparing against an enum, not a string. This is only partial because of xen/libxl/xm and qemu drivers, which if they don't know anything particular about the model string will just place it on the qemu command line/xen config and see what happens. So basically if I were to pass in <model type='idontexist'/> qemu would turn that into -device idontexist,... That behavior is untouched by this series, as fully unwinding that will take some more work: * Figuring out all reasonable qemu + xen values that could actually result in a working VM config, and adding them to the enum * Figuring out a long term plan for disabling passthrough entirely. There's some discussion in the v1 thread about this. Some caveats: * vz driver is not compile tested. What's the sdk magic to actually get this building? * net model enum lookup is done case insensitive. this is to maintain the behavior of the vmx and virtualbox drivers, but it's different than all our other enum usage.
