[libvirt] [PATCH] docs: add a note that attr 'managed' is only used by PCI devices
by Erik Skultety 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

Our documentation isn't 100% clear about hostdev 'managed' attribute usage, because it only makes sense to use it with PCI devices, yet we format this attribute to all hostdev devices. By adding a note into the docs, we can possibly avoid confusion from customer's side and also avoid a solution using ternary logic.

[libvirt] Release of libvirt-1.2.13
by Daniel Veillard 02 Mar '15

02 Mar '15

As planned I just made the release for libvirt-1.2.13, it's tagged in git, and signed tarballs and rpms are available at the usual place: ftp://libvirt.org/libvirt/ I also pushed a 1.2.13 for libvirt-python but it's really for completeness as it's virtuallyequivalent to 1.2.12.

[libvirt] new warning from ar on rawhide systems
by Eric Blake 28 Feb '15

28 Feb '15

When compiling libvirt (and probably other packages) on Fedora rawhide systems, I'm seeing a new warning message on every link line. # rpm -q libtool gcc binutils libtool-2.4.6-1.fc23.x86_64 gcc-5.0.0-0.16.fc23.x86_64 binutils-2.25-6.fc23.x86_64 For an example of the warning during a 'make V=1': > libtool: link: rm -fr .libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl.a .libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl.la > libtool: link: ar cru .libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl.a qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_agent.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_capabilities.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_command.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_domain.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_cgroup.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_hostdev.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_hotplug.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_conf.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_process.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_migration.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_monitor.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_monitor_text.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_monitor_json.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_driver.o qemu/.libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl_la-qemu_interface.o > ar: `u' modifier ignored since `D' is the default (see `U') > libtool: link: ranlib .libs/libvirt_driver_qemu_impl.a Reading 'man ar', it looks like a relatively new binutils invention, one that Fedora chose to flip on by default, but also one that might be worth using even when ar is built with 'U' rather than 'D' as the default: > D Operate in deterministic mode. When adding files and the archive > index use zero for UIDs, GIDs, timestamps, and use consistent file > modes for all files. When this option is used, if ar is used with > identical options and identical input files, multiple runs will > create identical output files regardless of the input files' > owners, groups, file modes, or modification times. > > If binutils was configured with --enable-deterministic-archives, > then this mode is on by default. It can be disabled with the U > modifier, below. Is it worth teaching libtool to change ARFLAGS to be 'crD' instead of 'cru' when it is detected that ar is new enough to support deterministic libraries, in part to shut up the warning message being printed on every single libtool link line? (Note that I would explicitly include 'D', because even though Fedora chose to make 'D' the default, other distros may choose to make 'U' the default). Or conversely, do we want ARFLAGS to be 'cruU', to force non-deterministic mode, since any speedups made possible by timestamp comparison ('u') are only possible in non-deterministic mode? Does the use of 'u' buy us much measurable time when repeatedly and incrementally linking large libraries, where the new 'D' mode is forced to link everything instead of just the new inputs? And of course there's the question of how easy is it to detect that ar is new enough to understand the 'D'/'U' dichotomy? Is this something I should redirect to automake instead of libtool? -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/3] Only talk to qemu guest agent when the domain is running
by Ján Tomko 28 Feb '15

Previously, only virDomainObjIsActive() was used to check domain liveness. This includes states like 'VIR_DOMAIN_PMSUSPENDED', where QEMU is running, but the guest is not. Explicitly check the state against VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING and refuse to communicate with the agent if it does not match. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=872424 Ján Tomko (3): Check for qemu guest agent availability after getting the job Pass virDomainObjPtr to qemuDomainAgentAvailable Check if domain is running in qemuDomainAgentIsAvailable src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 11 ++++++++++- src/qemu/qemu_domain.h | 2 +- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 49 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ 3 files changed, 36 insertions(+), 26 deletions(-) -- 2.0.5

No, I don't think so. The related code is int virFirewallApply(virFirewallPtr firewall) { size_t i, j; int ret = -1; virMutexLock(&ruleLock); if (!firewall || firewall->err == ENOMEM) { virReportOOMError(); goto cleanup; ... } I suspect 'firewall' is null, so OOM error is reported and the function returns -1. But I also don't see this preventing libvirtd from starting. I've cc'd the libvirt list for verification that these errors won't prevent libvirtd from starting. > I don't see any > evidence of a crash elsewhere in the logs (i.e. no "process segfaulted" > in dmesg, no OOM killing going on etc). > > We don't seem to collect dom0 freemem info, but that most likely > wouldn't help given the libvirtd process has exited. > > > Any ideas where to look next? Can you access the test environment and try starting libvirtd in the foreground? Or enable debug log level in /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf? Regards, Jim

[libvirt] [PATCH] Really fix XML formatting flags in SaveImageUpdateDef
by Ján Tomko 27 Feb '15

Commit cf2d4c6 used a logical or instead of bitwise or, effectively passing 1, that is VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INACTIVE. Yep, that's right.

[libvirt] [PATCH 0/4] add support for graphics to get a IPv6 address
by Luyao Huang 27 Feb '15

27 Feb '15

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1192318 We already support add a IPv6 address to graphics listen address and xml like this: <graphics type='spice' port='5900' autoport='yes' listen='2001b8:ca2:2::1' keymap='en-us'> <listen type='address' address='2001b8:ca2:2::1'/> </graphics> However we do not support get a IPv6 address for the network. add some helpers and rework networkGetNetworkAddress to make it can get a IPv6 address when we need.
