[libvirt] How to discover the baremetal resources & install a VM image on the same
by Saravanan S 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi all How do I discover the MAC address of machines that are available just with only BIOS installed (no Operating System present). And I need to find the mac address of such machines that are up with just BIOS. How do i do image installations on * bare-metal *? Please Guide me. Thanks.

[libvirt] Decent How-To now on the wiki for setting up Transport Layer Security
by Justin Clift 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Hi all, For anyone that's interested in setting up TLS with libvirt, but hasn't gotten around to it yet, there's a decent guide on the wiki now: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSSetup It's user focused (ie SysAdmin's), and has lots of pics explaining concepts, plus shows what needs to be done, and shows how to do it. Please note, it doesn't cover SASL, it's just plain host based TLS. Very much open to feedback on it, if people have suggestions for improvement. Hope that helps. :) Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift

[libvirt] [RFC] Memory controller exploitation in libvirt
by Nikunj A. Dadhania 31 Aug '10

31 Aug '10

Subject: [RFC] Memory controller exploitation in libvirt Memory CGroup is a kernel feature that can be exploited effectively in the current libvirt/qemu driver. Here is a shot at that. At present, QEmu uses memory ballooning feature, where the memory can be inflated/deflated as and when needed, co-operatively between the host and the guest. There should be some mechanism where the host can have more control over the guests memory usage. Memory CGroup provides features such as hard-limit and soft-limit for memory, and hard-limit for swap area. Design 1: Provide new API and XML changes for resource management ================================================================= All the memory controller tunables are not supported with the current abstractions provided by the libvirt API. libvirt works on various OS. This new API will support GNU/Linux initially and as and when other platforms starts supporting memory tunables, the interface could be enabled for them. Adding following two function pointer to the virDriver interface. 1) domainSetMemoryParameters: which would take one or more name-value pairs. This makes the API extensible, and agnostic to the kind of parameters supported by various Hypervisors. 2) domainGetMemoryParameters: For getting current memory parameters Corresponding libvirt public API: int virDomainSetMemoryParamters (virDomainPtr domain, virMemoryParamterPtr params, unsigned int nparams); int virDomainGetMemoryParamters (virDomainPtr domain, virMemoryParamterPtr params, unsigned int nparams); Parameter list supported: MemoryHardLimits (memory.limits_in_bytes) - Maximum memory MemorySoftLimits (memory.softlimit_in_bytes) - Desired memory MemoryMinimumGaurantee - Minimum memory required (without this amount of memory, VM should not be started) SwapHardLimits (memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes) - Maximum swap SwapSoftLimits (Currently not supported by kernel) - Desired swap space Tunables memory.limit_in_bytes, memory.softlimit_in_bytes and memory.memsw_limit_in_bytes are provided by the memory controller in the Linux kernel. I am not an expert here, so just listing what new elements need to be added to the XML schema: <define name="resource"> <element memory> <element memoryHardLimit/> <element memorySoftLimit/> <element memoryMinGaurantee/> <element swapHardLimit/> <element swapSoftLimit/> </element> </define> Pros: * Support all the tunables exported by the kernel * More tunables can be added as and when required Cons: * Code changes would touch various levels * Might need to redefine(changing the scope) of existing memory API. Currently, domainSetMemory is used to set limit_in_bytes in LXC and memory ballooning in QEmu. While the domainSetMaxMemory is not defined in QEmu and in case of LXC it is setting the internal object's maxmem variable. Future: * Later on, CPU/IO/Network controllers related tunables can be added/enhanced along with the APIs/XML elements: CPUHardLimit CPUSoftLimit CPUShare CPUPercentage IO_BW_Softlimit IO_BW_Hardlimit IO_BW_percentage * libvirt-cim support for resource management Design 2: Reuse the current memory APIs in libvirt ================================================== Use memory.limit_in_bytes to tweak memory hard limits Init - Set the memory.limit_in_bytes to maximum mem. Claiming memory from guest: a) Reduce balloon size b) If the guest does not co-operate(How do we know?), reduce memory.limit_in_bytes. Allocating memory more than max memory: How to solve this? As we have already set the max balloon size. We can only play within this! Pros: * Few changes * Is not intrusive Cons: * SetMemory and SetMaxMemory usage is confusing. * SetMemory is too generic a name, it does not cover all the tunables. * Does not support memory softlimit * Does not have support to reserve the memory swap region * This solution is not extensible IMO, "Design 1" is more generic and extensible for various memory tuneables.

[libvirt] how to print size_t in LGPLv2+ program
by Eric Blake 28 Aug '10

28 Aug '10

libvirt is currently LGPLv2+, but needs to use the printf family of functions to display size_t values, even on mingw where %zu support is not built in. My understanding is that on 64-bit windows, sizeof(long)==4 but sizeof(void*)==8; and if I'm reading http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/s3f49ktz%28VS.80%29.aspx correctly, then sizeof(size_t) is also 8. Which means you _can't_ use "%lu",(unsigned long)size_t_val. And mingw also lacks support for "%llu",(unsigned long long)size_t_val. So that leaves several options: Is it worth relaxing the license on the *printf-posix family of modules to LGPLv2+ from their current LGPLv3+, or is this too big of a request? Ultimately, this is the nicest - %zu would just work. Is it worth relaxing the license of the inttostr family of modules?. But that is also LGPLv3+, and requires a more careful audit to convert all uses of "%zu",size_t_val into "%s",umaxtostr(size_t_val,buf). Or, since using umaxtostr penalizes 32-bit machines for converting to the 64-bit intermediary, maybe it's worth adding a size_t variant? That, and coreutils has a TODO to remove use of umaxtostr in favor of <inttypes.h> solutions. Finally, within existing LGPLv2+ modules, it is possible for libvirt to manually use "%"PRIuMAX,(uintmax_t)size_t_val everywhere by relying on gnulib's <inttypes.h> replacement, but that's also a painful audit to perform and maintain, and also wastes processor cycles on 32-bit machines for converting to the 64-bit intermediary. What a shame that POSIX omitted an <inttypes.h> PRIu* for size_t. -- Eric Blake eblake(a)redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org

[libvirt] Xencaptest.c failing?
by Thomas Graves 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

Hello, We are running xen3.4.3 on rhel5.4 and trying to build the new libvirt 0.8.3 and the xencaptest is failing. It seems to be failing because it is passing NULL in as the virtconn and it ends up going into the following code section in function xenHypervisorBuildCapabilities: if (sys_interface_version >= SYS_IFACE_MIN_VERS_NUMA) { if (xenDaemonNodeGetTopology(conn, caps) != 0) { virCapabilitiesFree(caps); return NULL; } } And that throws an error because conn is empty. I don't see how that could ever work with the virtconn NULL. If I force it to be lower version number then it passes fine. I think its figuring we are sys_interface_version=6. Any ideas? Thanks, Tom

Creating the Certificate Authority Cert http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSCreateCACertSteps Creating the Server Certs http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSCreateServerCerts Creating the Client Certs http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSCreateClientCerts Configuring libvirt for TLS http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSDaemonConfiguration Further References http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/TLSFurtherReferences They still need a few pics added, but thought it best to start getting this looked at now. :) There's also a high level concept page, to be used as an intro to the above, here: http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/HostCommTLSSetup It only has draft pics atm, still needing to be given words and life. Any takers, thoughts, input, etc? Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift

[libvirt] How to override TLS client cert and key locations used for migration?
by Justin Clift 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

Hi guys, Does anyone know if it's possible to override the default locations used for the TLS client certificate and it's private key, as used in migration? We have overrides in libvirtd.conf for the server cert and its private key, but I'm not seeing anything for the corresponding client pieces. The remote driver appears hard coded to use the default locations only: src/remote/remote_driver.c src/remote/remote_driver.h Any ideas? Regards and best wishes, Justin Clift

[libvirt] [PATCH] maint: turn on gcc logical-op checking
by Eric Blake 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

This would have detected the bug in commit 38ad33931 (Aug 09), which we missed until commit f828ca35 (Jul 10); over 11 months later. However, on Fedora 13, it also triggers LOTS of warnings from the libcurl-devel header for one file: esx/esx_vi.c: In function 'esxVI_CURL_Perform': esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] esx/esx_vi.c:232: error: logical '&&' with non-zero constant will always evaluate as true [-Wlogical-op] ... I figure the gross hack to disable the warnings in the third-party code, along with the reduction in type-safety in just esx_vi.c, is worth the improved compiler checking throughout the rest of libvirt. * acinclude.m4 (--enable-compile-warnings=error): Add -Wlogical-op. * src/esx/esx_vi.c (includes): Hack around broken libcurl-devel header, to avoid compilation warning.

[libvirt] [PATCH] PHYP: Bad comparison when checking for existing domain name
by Eduardo Otubo 27 Aug '10

27 Aug '10

When creating a new domain from an XML, the check for an existing domain name should compare the return of the function to a a valid LPAR ID (!= -1) and not to error (== -1). --- src/phyp/phyp_driver.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/phyp/phyp_driver.c b/src/phyp/phyp_driver.c index 251111d..8eeba73 100644 --- a/src/phyp/phyp_driver.c +++ b/src/phyp/phyp_driver.c @@ -3759,7 +3759,7 @@ phypDomainCreateAndStart(virConnectPtr conn, goto err; /* checking if this name already exists on this system */ - if (phypGetLparID(session, managed_system, def->name, conn) == -1) { + if (phypGetLparID(session, managed_system, def->name, conn) != -1) { VIR_WARN0("LPAR name already exists."); goto err; } -- 1.7.0.4
