Rebased on top of current master.
I'm posting this as an RFC mainly because I'm not sure how to model
the new API. This patches introduce a new naive API that will change
only the APPID and nothing else.
Currently there are no other known features related to Fibre Channel
resources so this non-extendable API will be sufficient, however the
appid lives in <resource> element in the XML where we currently have
root cgroup partition. Even though changing the partition will not be
supported and we don't know about anything else that could be placed
here it doesn't mean it will not happen in the future. In that case
we would have to add new API as well.
So I'm wondering if we should create a more generic API that would take
typed parameters as arguments:
int virDomainSetResource(virDomainPtr domain,
virTypedParameterPtr params,
int nparams,
unsigned int flags)
Any ideas?

I'd write this as:
if (def->resource->appid &&
virDomainDefResourceAppidValidate() < 0)
return -1;
so that this line doesn't have to be changed when something new is added
to this function. Moreover, you can have
virDomainDefResourceAppidValidate() to be NOP if appid == NULL and write
this check as:

With introduction of live changes of appid we should also support
removal of the appid from VM. This is done by writing empty appid part

Or NULLSTR_EMPTY(appid) instead of ternary operator.

Not true, @flags are used to control if we are modifying live or config
XML.

Right, I missed that in the protocol documentation. Will fix.

Good point, thanks, using --clear will be probably better and easier for

Rebased on top of current master.
I'm posting this as an RFC mainly because I'm not sure how to model
the new API. This patches introduce a new naive API that will change
only the APPID and nothing else.
Currently there are no other known features related to Fibre Channel
resources so this non-extendable API will be sufficient, however the
appid lives in <resource> element in the XML where we currently have
root cgroup partition. Even though changing the partition will not be
supported and we don't know about anything else that could be placed
here it doesn't mean it will not happen in the future. In that case
we would have to add new API as well.
So I'm wondering if we should create a more generic API that would take
typed parameters as arguments:
int virDomainSetResource(virDomainPtr domain,
virTypedParameterPtr params,
int nparams,
unsigned int flags)
I think having the spcific API as you implemented is fine for now. We
did not have much in <resource/> until now and I don't think we will in
foreseeable future.
Any ideas?

I'm curious why we need to even support updates for the APPID in
the first place. I understood it to be a unique identifier for
the VM from POV of the storage, and unique identifier are not
something you would typically change on the fly.

Good point, when implementing this feature I also thought that there is
no need to have live changes, but to be sure I asked in the BZ (no
public) and got an answer that they would like to have the live changes
as well.
It's possible though that they just asked to have it without any planned
usage for it.

Good point, when implementing this feature I also thought that there is
no need to have live changes, but to be sure I asked in the BZ (no
public) and got an answer that they would like to have the live changes
as well.
Reading the bug report I'm not convinced they are asking for live
changes. They are asking how to set the value using virsh, but
that doesn't imply live change. It is entirely possible, maybe even
likely, they just want to use 'virsh edit' to set the value in an
existing guest before booting it.

Daniel

Reading the bug report I'm not convinced they are asking for live
changes. They are asking how to set the value using virsh, but
that doesn't imply live change. It is entirely possible, maybe even
likely, they just want to use 'virsh edit' to set the value in an
existing guest before booting it.
So we had a meeting today and yes there was some noise in the
communication. There is no need to change the VMID while the VM is
running so this whole patch series can be dropped.
They wanted to have a virsh command to edit it but I explained that it
can be already done by virsh edit and that we will add support to
virt-install/virt-xml as well to make it easier.
Thanks Michal for the review but I'm not going to push this series.
