[libvirt] Schedule for release of 0.9.4
by Daniel Veillard 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

I should have posted this beginning of this week... Basically I would like to freeze for 0.9.4 next Monday, which means we need to finish ACK'ing and pushing the number of patch sets which are well advanced already. Then try to get a final 0.9.4 release on Aug 1 or 2. So let's make sure we have updated patches on the list and let's review the patches and apply them ! This includes: - virtual switch support - support for cpu bandwith (Wen can you provide a patchset including latest feedback ?) - New virDomainBlockPull API (Adam can you provide a new patchset too ?) - and various other patch(set)s floating around And if you sent a patch which got no feedback, please raise it again, thanks everybody !

[libvirt] RFC New virDomainBlockPull API family to libvirt
by Adam Litke 20 Jul '11

20 Jul '11

Unfortunately, after committing the blockPull API to libvirt, the qemu community decided to change the API somewhat and we needed to revert the libvirt implementation. Now that the qemu API is settling out again, I would like to propose an updated libvirt public API which has required only a minor set of changes to sync back up to the qemu API. Summary of changes: - Qemu dropped incremental streaming so remove libvirt incremental BlockPull() API - Rename virDomainBlockPullAll() to virDomainBlockPull() - Changes required to qemu monitor handlers for changed command names Currently, qemu block device streaming completely flattens a disk image's backing file chain. Consider the following chain: A->B->C where C is a leaf image that is backed by B and B is backed by A. The current disk streaming command will produce an independent image C with no backing file. Future versions of qemu block streaming may support an option to specify a new base image from the current chain. For example: stream --backing_file B C would pull all blocks that are only in A to produce the chain: B->C (thus eliminating a dependency on A but maintaining B as a backing image. Do we want to create room in the BlockPull API to support this advanced usage in the future? If so, then a new parameter must be added to BlockPull: const char *backing_path. Even if we extend the API in this manner, the initial implementation will not support it because qemu will not support it immediately, and libvirt is missing core functionality to support it (no public enumeration of the disk backing file chain). Thoughts? -- To help speed the provisioning process for large domains, new QED disks are created with backing to a template image. These disks are configured with copy on read such that blocks that are read from the backing file are copied to the new disk. This reduces I/O over a potentially costly path to the backing image. In such a configuration, there is a desire to remove the dependency on the backing image as the domain runs. To accomplish this, qemu will provide an interface to perform sequential copy on read operations during normal VM operation. Once all data has been copied, the disk image's link to the backing file is removed. The virDomainBlockPull API family brings this functionality to libvirt. virDomainBlockPull() instructs the hypervisor to stream the entire device in the background. Progress of this operation can be checked with the function virDomainBlockPullInfo(). An ongoing stream can be cancelled with virDomainBlockPullAbort(). An event (VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_ID_BLOCK_PULL) will be emitted when a disk has been fully populated or if a BlockPull() operation was terminated due to an error. This event is useful to avoid polling on virDomainBlockPullInfo() for completion and could also be used by the security driver to revoke access to the backing file when it is no longer needed. /* * BlockPull API */ /* An iterator for initiating and monitoring block pull operations */ typedef unsigned long long virDomainBlockPullCursor; typedef struct _virDomainBlockPullInfo virDomainBlockPullInfo; struct _virDomainBlockPullInfo { /* * The following fields provide an indication of block pull progress. @cur * indicates the current position and will be between 0 and @end. @end is * the final cursor position for this operation and represents completion. * To approximate progress, divide @cur by @end. */ virDomainBlockPullCursor cur; virDomainBlockPullCursor end; }; typedef virDomainBlockPullInfo *virDomainBlockPullInfoPtr; /** * virDomainBlockPull: * @dom: pointer to domain object * @path: Fully-qualified filename of disk * @flags: currently unused, for future extension * * Populate a disk image with data from its backing image.
