how does setMemory work?
by Henry lol
Hi guys,
I used setMemory in order to dynamically change guest's memory on QEMU-KVM.
As expected, memory(total, free, available) in the guest was really
changed, but after a few seconds, it automatically reverted to its initial
memory.
So, setMemory changes the guest's memory temporarily?
Thanks.

Two questions about NVDIMM devices
by Milan Zamazal
Hi,
I've met two situations with NVDIMM support in libvirt where I'm not
sure all the parties (libvirt & I) do the things correctly.
The first problem is with memory alignment and size changes. In
addition to the size changes applied to NVDIMMs by QEMU, libvirt also
makes some NVDIMM size changes for better alignments, in
qemuDomainMemoryDeviceAlignSize. This can lead to the size being
rounded up, exceeding the size of the backing device and QEMU failing to
start the VM for that reason (I've experienced that actually). I work
with emulated NVDIMM devices, not a bare metal hardware, so one might
argue that in practice the device sizes should already be aligned, but
I'm not sure it must be always the case considering labels or whatever
else the user decides to set up. And I still don't feel very
comfortable that I have to count with two internal size adjustments
(libvirt & QEMU) to the `size' value I specify, with the ultimate goal
of getting the VM started and having the NVDIMM aligned properly to make
(non-NVDIMM) memory hot plug working. Is the size alignment performed
by libvirt, especially rounding up, completely correct for NVDIMMs?
The second problem is that a VM fails to start with a backing NVDIMM in
devdax mode due to SELinux preventing access to the /dev/dax* device (it
doesn't happen with any other NVDIMM modes). Who should be responsible
for handling the SELinux label appropriately in that case? libvirt, the
system administrator, anybody else? Using <seclabel> in NVDIMM's source
doesn't seem to be accepted by the domain XML schema.
Thanks,
Milan

I don't think we need to do such change on our side. This seems like a
hard to reproduce libvirt bug.
The strange thing is that after playing with the XML generated by
virt-manager, using
[x] Copy host CPU configuration
Creating this XML:
<cpu mode='custom' match='exact' check='full'>
<model fallback='forbid'>Skylake-Client-IBRS</model>
<vendor>Intel</vendor>
<feature policy='require' name='ss'/>
<feature policy='require' name='vmx'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pdcm'/>
<feature policy='require' name='hypervisor'/>
<feature policy='require' name='tsc_adjust'/>
<feature policy='require' name='clflushopt'/>
<feature policy='require' name='umip'/>
<feature policy='require' name='md-clear'/>
<feature policy='require' name='stibp'/>
<feature policy='require' name='arch-capabilities'/>
<feature policy='require' name='ssbd'/>
<feature policy='require' name='xsaves'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pdpe1gb'/>
<feature policy='require' name='ibpb'/>
<feature policy='require' name='amd-stibp'/>
<feature policy='require' name='amd-ssbd'/>
<feature policy='require' name='skip-l1dfl-vmentry'/>
<feature policy='require' name='pschange-mc-no'/>
<feature policy='disable' name='mpx'/>
</cpu>
Or using this XML in virt-manager:
<cpu mode="host-passthrough" check="none" migratable="on"/>
Both work with these cluster CPU Type:
- Secure Intel Skylake Client Family
- Intel Skylake Client Family
I think the best place to discuss this is libvirt-users mailing list:
https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users

is the connection object a connection pool or just a single connection?
Can it be used concurrently?

Problem with a RAW Disk and Xen
by Christoph
Hi All,
I have in config of 2 Xen DomU's this disk:
<disk type='file' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source file='/dev/mapper/keys'/>
<target dev='xvdz' bus='xen'/>
<readonly/>
</disk>
If I start the DomU's then all starts without problem, see this in log
of the DomU:
{
"pdev_path": "/dev/mapper/keys",
"vdev": "xvdz",
"backend": "qdisk",
"format": "raw",
"removable": 1,
"discard_enable": "False",
"colo_enable": "False",
"colo_restore_enable": "False"
}
but this disk isn't there in the domU... Why?
It is a shared disk between the DomU's but configured as "readonly" so
there shouldnt be a problem (with the same xen xl configuration, there
is no problem)

Read-only iscsi disk? Or hot-plug?
by Paul van der Vlis
Hello,
I have an iSCSI disk with a backup. I want to use that backup on another
machine to test putting back data.
What I use now is this:
----
<disk type='block' device='disk'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw' cache='directsync' io='native'/>
<source dev='/dev/disk/by-id/scsi-36e843b6afdddf65dc4e9d4dc2dab66de'/>
<target dev='vdh' bus='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x0c'
function='0x0'/>
</disk>
----
Is it possible to do this read-only?
What I also could do is to hot-unplug the disk at the production
machine, and then hot-plug it at the test-machine. But the machines are
Windows, and I don't know Windows well.
With regards,
Paul

Error With Xeon 2678 in virt-manager
by John Bajer
Hello, I have to select Ivy Bridge since I have Xeon 2678 but I cannot find
it on the drop-down menu in virt-manager. When I select copy host cpu
configuration it changes it to EPYC as soon as I click the start button.
I have Manjaro on my computer.
How to solve this problem?
Thanks!

printing the qemu final execution line from an xml
by daggs
Greetings,
I have a qemu line which I want to convert ot libvirt xml but as domxml-from-native is deprecated, I want to try it the other way around.
e.g. write an libvirt xml and dump the final qemu line without running it.
is there a way to do so?
Thanks,
Dagg.

usb-hdmi-cec-adapter usb pass-through experiences
by daggs
Greetings,
I need to get a device like this: https://www.pulse-eight.com/p/104/usb-hdmi-cec-adapter
I have usb pass-through experiences with some usb devices such as dtv, wireless network, thumbsticks and wireless keyboards.
I know there isn't much to be done in usb pass-through but I did had issues with the former two, now I'm using a wireless network without and issues.
I wanted to know if someone has tried using this device as pass-through into a vm and can share his thoughts.
Thanks,
Dagg.
