[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] Removing backend support when net interface is user/direct/hostdev.
by Julio Faracco 05 Nov '17

05 Nov '17

The <backend> xml tag is not supported for some interface types and the virsh command 'attach-device' permits to add <backend> settings to all of them. These commits avoid <backend> for user, direct and hostdev interface types.

[libvirt] [PATCH go-xml] Improve DomainChardevSource.

Re: [libvirt] How to best handle the reoccurring of rom changes breaking cross version migrations?
by Christian Ehrhardt 03 Nov '17

03 Nov '17

Ping - since there wasn't any reply so far - any best practices one could share? Let me add a TL;DR: - bump of ipxe rom versions change the size of virtio-net-pci.rom - that breaks on migration "Length mismatch" I'd guess the size of that rom has to be fixed up on the fly, but if that is really ok and how/where is the question. Also to +1 on bad things for today - I made this a cross post to libvirt in case there is one that has done that in the past.

[libvirt] [REPOST PATCH v6 0/8] Use secret objects to pass iSCSI passwords
by John Ferlan 03 Nov '17

03 Nov '17

Reposting after 3.9.0 release and refresh to current HEAD. Had to move the news.xml into the 3.10.0 section as well and address a couple of merge conflicts. Original: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-October/msg01012.html Copy of Original cover letter: v5: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-October/msg00228.html FWIW: AFAICT this series does not need/require changes that Peter has posted for continuing blocked-add saga related to user-specified backing chains: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-October/msg00956.html Changes since v5: * Some patches pushed as part of Peter Krempa's work and the two patches to perform the parsing of auth and encryption data in virStorageSource were pushed separately * Removed patches dealing with qemuDomainStorageSourceCopy and virDomainDiskStorageSourceNew Patches 9->16 reworked Patch1: (previous patch 10) - Rework logic to remove the need to pass around the @xmlopt for virStorageSourcePtr allocation and instead VIR_ALLOC(iscsisrc->src) directly as other consumers do. Patch2: (previous patch 11) - Use the qemuDomainStorageSourcePrivatePtr and friend macro QEMU_DOMAIN_STORAGE_SOURCE_PRIVATE to manage the iscsisrc->src data making sure to ensure that srcPriv (e.g. privateData) exists. Patch3: (previous patch 12) - Only minor merge related changes. Patch4: (previous patch 13) - Merge related plus additional check to ensure srcPriv exists before dereference secinfo Patch5: (previous patch 14) - No change Patch 6: (previous patch 15) - Merge related changes, plus checks for srcPriv before deref secinfo NB: Testing note - I did ensure at this point if the password secret capability check fails that the code will still do the right thing. Patch7: (previous patch 9) - No change...

[libvirt] storage lock issues
by Cedric Bosdonnat 02 Nov '17

02 Nov '17

Hi all, I'm investigating a crash in the storage driver, and it seems the solution is not as obvious as I wanted it. Basically what happens is that libvirtd crashes due to the pool refresh thread clearing the list of pool volumes while someone is adding a new volume. Here is the valgrind log I have for that: http://paste.opensuse.org/58733866 I tried adding a call to virStoragePoolObjLock() in the virStorageVolPoolRefreshThread(), since the storageVolCreateXML() appears to have it, but I'm getting a dead lock. Here are the waiting threads I got from gdb: http://paste.opensuse.org/45961070 Any idea what would be a proper fix for that? My vision of the storage drivers locks is too limited it seems ;) -- Cedric

[libvirt] [PATCH 00/12] qemu: Add support for more migration parameters
by Jiri Denemark 02 Nov '17

02 Nov '17

QEMU is transforming existing special migration parameters (those which need dedicated QMP commands to be set or queried) into proper parameters handled by query-migrate-parameters and migrate-set-parameters. Even though we may still want to use the existing commands adding support for tha transformed parameters will help us clean all of them before migration and reset them to their original values after a failed migration. Thus we wouldn't need to add more ad-hoc code which resets some of them and ignores some others.
