[libvirt] question on network interface of LXC domain
by Osier Yang 10 May '10

10 May '10

Hello there with newest libvirt, when I connect to the container via console, then execute "ifconfig", there will be no output, though the network works fine. and "/proc/net/dev" of container seems good too. (has entries about "eth0" and "lo"). I traced the call procedure of "ifconfig", it reads the infomations of network interface from "/proc/net/dev" and vise visa. so I'm confused about what cause this problem. there is no problem with libvirt-0.8.0-4. Thanks and Regards Osier

[libvirt] [PATCH] more interface functions; some needed for VEPA
by Stefan Berger 08 May '10

08 May '10

In the attached patch I am refactoring the function that changes the flags on an interface to call a separate function to first read the flags on the interface. This function that reads the flags then becomes public. I am also adding a function that test whether an interface is currently up. This prevents other code to have to include interface related include files. Then there is a new function that reads the VLANid of a VLAN interface via an ioctl(). This one will be needed by upcoming VEPA related patches. On cygwin for example none of the newly added functions are available. The flags related function could not be exported due to missing PF_PACKET -- or maybe other type of protocol that needs to be used when opening the socket for running the ioctl() on.

[libvirt] [PATCH] mingw32-libvirt.spec: bring up to date

Right now, mingw32-portablexdr is not available in Fedora, but is present in fedora-mingw.git.

[libvirt] small typo in "Terminology and goals" page
by Ersek, Laszlo 08 May '10

08 May '10

Hi, there seems to be a typo in http://libvirt.org/goals.html "Multiple mode may be accessed with libvirt simultaneously but the APIs are limited to single node operations." I think that was intended as "Multiple *nodes*". If not: sorry :) Cheers, lacos

[libvirt] [Reminder] KVM Forum 2010: Call for Papers
by KVM Forum 2010 Program Committee 08 May '10

08 May '10

Just a reminder...The submission deadline is in one week. thanks, -KVM Forum 2010 Program Commitee -- ================================================================= CALL FOR PAPERS KVM Forum 2010 ================================================================= DESCRIPTION The KVM Forum is back! After a break last year we're proud to present this year's gathering around KVM again. The idea is to have everyone involved with KVM development come together to talk about the future and current state of KVM, teaching everyone some pieces of the puzzle they might be missing without. So if you're a KVM developer, mark the dates in your calendar! If possible, also submit a talk -- we're interested in a wide variety of KVM topics, so don't hesitate to propose a talk on your work. If you're not a KVM developer, please read on nevertheless (or jump to END USER COLLABORATION). DATES / LOCATION Conference: August 9 - 10, 2010 Location: Renaissance Boston Waterfront in Boston, MA Abstracts due: May 14th, 2010 Notification: May 28th, 2010 Yes, we're colocated with LinuxCon. Tickets for the KVM Forum also count for LinuxCon. http://events.linuxfoundation.org/component/registrationpro/?func=details&d… PROCESS At first check if it's before May 14th. If you're past that date, you're out of luck. Now try to think hard and come up with a great idea that you could talk about. Once you have that set, we need you to write up a short abstract (~150 words) on it. In your submission please note how long your talk will take. Slots vary in length up to one hour. Also include in your proposal the proposal type -- one of: technical talk, breakout session, or end-user talk. Add that information to the abstract and submit it at the following URL: http://events.linuxfoundation.org/cfp/cfp-add Now, wait until May 24th. You will receive a notification on whether your talk was accepted or not. SCOPE OF TALKS We have a list of suggested presentation topics below. These suggestions are just for guidance, please feel free to submit a proposal on any of these or related topics. In general, the more it's about backend infrastructure, the better. KVM - Scaling and performance - Nested virtualization - I/O improvements - Driver domains - Time keeping - Memory management (page sharing, swapping, huge pages, etc) - Fault tolerance - VEPA, vswitch Embedded KVM - KVM on ARM, PPC, MIPS, ...? - Real-time requirements host/guest - Device pass-through w/o iommu - Custom device/platform models QEMU - Device model improvements - New devices - Security model - Scaling and performance - Desktop virtualization - Increasing robustness - Management interfaces - QMP protocol and implementation - Live migration Virtio - Speeding up existing devices - Vhost - Alternatives - Using virtio in non-kvm environments - Virtio on non-Linux Management infrastructure - Libvirt - Kvm autotest - Easy networking - Qemud BREAKOUT SESSION We will reserve some time each day to break out for working sessions. These sessions will be less formal than a presentation and more focused on developing a solution to some real development issue. If you are interested in getting developers together to hack on some code, submit your proposal and just make it clear it's a breakout session proposal. END-USER COLLABORATION One of the big challenges as developers is to know what, where and how people actually use our software. To solve this issue at least a little, there will be a few slots reserved for end users talking about their deployments, problems and achievements. So if you have a KVM based deployment running in production or are about to roll out one, please also submit a talk (see PROCESS), and simply mark it asn an end-user collaboration proposal. We would love to have an open discussion of fields where KVM/Qemu can still improve and you would have the unique chance to steer that process! Keep in mind that most of the Forum will be focused on development though, so we suggest you also come with a good portion of technical interest :-). And of course, no product marketing please! The purpose is to engage with KVM developers. LIGHTNING TALKS In addition to submitted talks we will also have some room for lightning talks. So if you have something you think might be done until the KVM Forum, but you're not sure you could fill 15 minutes with it. Or if you don't know if you'll make it until there, just keep in mind that you will still get the chance to talk about it. Lightning talk submissions and scheduling will be handled on-site at KVM Forum. Thank you for your interest in KVM. We're looking forward to your submissions and seeing you at the KVM Forum 2010 in August! Now, start thinking about that talk you want to give. Thanks, your KVM Forum 2010 Program Commitee Alexander Graf, Novell Anthony Liguori, IBM Avi Kivity, Red Hat Chris Wright, Red Hat Dor Laor, Red Hat Jan Kiszka, Siemens Please contact us with any questions or comments.
