Re: [libvirt] [PATCH libvirt master] interface type: add udp socket support

Adds a new interface type using UDP sockets, this seems only applicable to QEMU but have edited tree-wide to support the new interface type. The interface type required the addition of a "destaddr" (destination address), this then maps into the following xml and qemu call. <interface type='udp'> <mac address='52:54:00:5c:67:56'/> <source address='127.0.0.1' port='11112'/> <model type='virtio'/> <dest address="127.0.0.1' port='22222'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x07' function='0x0'/> ... QEMU call: -netdev socket,udp=127.0.0.1:22222,localaddr=127.0.0.1:11112 Notice the xml "source" entry becomes the "localaddr" for the qemu call. reference: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-11/msg00629.html Signed-off-by: Jonathan Toppins <jtoppins(a)cumulusnetworks.com&gt; --- docs/formatdomain.html.in | 17 ++++++++++++ src/conf/domain_conf.c | 56 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--- src/conf/domain_conf.h | 3 +++ src/conf/netdev_bandwidth_conf.h | 1 + src/libxl/libxl_conf.c | 1 + src/lxc/lxc_controller.c | 1 + src/lxc/lxc_process.c | 1 + src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 12 +++++++++ src/qemu/qemu_hotplug.c | 1 + src/qemu/qemu_interface.c | 2 ++ src/uml/uml_conf.c | 5 ++++ src/xenconfig/xen_sxpr.c | 1 + tools/virsh-domain.c | 1 + 13 files changed, 99 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-)
