[libvirt] [PATCH 0/2] libxl: a few domain maximum memory fixes
Patch 1 fixes reporting of domain maximum memory for running domains. When creating a virDomainDef object to represent dom0, max memory was not set correctly, which is fixed by patch2. Jim Fehlig (2): libxl: fix reporting of maximum memory libxl: fix dom0 maximum memory setting src/libxl/libxl_conf.c | 75 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ src/libxl/libxl_conf.h | 3 ++ src/libxl/libxl_driver.c | 7 ++--- 3 files changed, 81 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) -- 2.9.2
The libxl driver reports different values of maximum memory depending on state of a domain. If inactive, maximum memory value is reported correctly. When active, maximum memory is derived from max_pages value returned by the XEN_SYSCTL_getdomaininfolist sysctl operation. But max_pages can be changed by toolstacks and does not necessarily represent the maximum memory a domain can use during its active lifetime. A better location for determining a domain's maximum memory is the /local/domain/<id>/memory/static-max node in xenstore. This value is set from the libxl_domain_build_info.max_memkb field when creating the domain. Currently it cannot be changed nor can its value be exceeded by a balloon operation. From libvirt's perspective, always reporting maximum memory with virDomainDefGetMemoryTotal() will produce the same results as reading the static-max node in xenstore.

When the libxl driver is initialized, it creates a virDomainDef object for dom0 and adds it to the list of domains. Total memory for dom0 was being set from the max_memkb field of libxl_dominfo struct retrieved from libxl, but this field can be set to LIBXL_MEMKB_DEFAULT (~0ULL) if dom0 maximum memory has not been explicitly set by the user. This patch adds some simple parsing of the Xen commandline, looking for a dom0_mem parameter that also specifies a 'max' value. If not specified, dom0 maximum memory is effectively all physical host memory.

Yeah, We probably have some serious concerns if this fails. And given that libxlAddDom0 happens early while bootstrapping the libxl module, it might be good to warn the user (following similar pattern throughout the rest of the code): virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s", _("libxl_get_physinfo_info failed")); or perhaps simply VIR_WARN?

Bummer. I was hoping this function could always return a sane value for dom0 max memory. But I'm not really sure what that would be if libxl_get_physinfo failed.
Yeah, We probably have some serious concerns if this fails. And given that libxlAddDom0 happens early while bootstrapping the libxl module, it might be good to warn the user (following similar pattern throughout the rest of the code):
virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s", _("libxl_get_physinfo_info failed"));
or perhaps simply VIR_WARN?

ATM, libxlDriverGetDom0MaxmemConf returns an unsigned long long. I could change the signature to
int libxlDriverGetDom0MaxmemConf(libxlDriverConfigPtr cfg, unsigned long long *maxmem)
but again I'm not really sure what to do with maxmem in case of failure. Perhaps just set it to current_memkb? Yeap, that's what I was thinking too.
Thanks for the comments. I've sent a V2 incorporating them https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2017-February/msg00349.html Regards, Jim
