[libvirt] [PATCH v4] virt-aa-helper: Set the supported features
by Shivaprasad G Bhat 06 Feb '18

06 Feb '18

The virt-aa-helper fails to parse the xmls with the memory/cpu hotplug features or user assigned aliases. Set the features in xmlopt->config for the parsing to succeed.

[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Limit refresh of CPU halted state to s390
by Viktor Mihajlovski 06 Feb '18

06 Feb '18

Refreshing the halted state can cause VM performance issues. Since s390 is currently the only architecture with a known interest in the halted state, we're avoiding to call QEMU on other platforms.

[libvirt] [PATCH v4 0/4] nwfilter common object adjustments
by John Ferlan 05 Feb '18

05 Feb '18

v3: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-October/msg00264.html Although v3 didn't get any attention - I figured I'd update and repost. The only difference between this series and that one is that I dropped patch 1 from v3. It was an attempt to fix a perceived issue in nwfilter that I actually now have determined is in nodedev for which I'll have a different set of patches. John Ferlan (4): nwfilter: Remove unnecessary UUID comparison bypass nwfilter: Convert _virNWFilterObj to use virObjectRWLockable nwfilter: Convert _virNWFilterObjList to use virObjectRWLockable nwfilter: Remove need for nwfilterDriverLock in some API's src/conf/virnwfilterobj.c | 555 +++++++++++++++++++++++---------- src/conf/virnwfilterobj.h | 11 +- src/libvirt_private.syms | 3 +- src/nwfilter/nwfilter_driver.c | 71 ++--- src/nwfilter/nwfilter_gentech_driver.c | 11 +- 5 files changed, 427 insertions(+), 224 deletions(-) -- 2.13.6
