[libvirt-users] NUMA issues on virtualized hosts

by Lukas Hejtmanek

Hello, I have cluster with AMD EPYC 7351 cpu. Two CPUs per node. I have performance 8-NUMA configuration: This is from hypervizor: [root@hde10 ~]# lscpu Architecture: x86_64 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit Byte Order: Little Endian CPU(s): 64 On-line CPU(s) list: 0-63 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 16 Socket(s): 2 NUMA node(s): 8 Vendor ID: AuthenticAMD CPU family: 23 Model: 1 Model name: AMD EPYC 7351 16-Core Processor Stepping: 2 CPU MHz: 1800.000 CPU max MHz: 2400.0000 CPU min MHz: 1200.0000 BogoMIPS: 4800.05 Virtualization: AMD-V L1d cache: 32K L1i cache: 64K L2 cache: 512K L3 cache: 8192K NUMA node0 CPU(s): 0-3,32-35 NUMA node1 CPU(s): 4-7,36-39 NUMA node2 CPU(s): 8-11,40-43 NUMA node3 CPU(s): 12-15,44-47 NUMA node4 CPU(s): 16-19,48-51 NUMA node5 CPU(s): 20-23,52-55 NUMA node6 CPU(s): 24-27,56-59 NUMA node7 CPU(s): 28-31,60-63 I'm running one big virtual on this hypervizor - almost whole memory + all physical CPUs.

The disk under datastore is NVME SSD Intel 4500. If I set cache='none', kswaps are on idle, disk writes are pretty fast, however, with 8-NUMA configuration, writes slow down to less than 10MB/s as soon as the size of written data is roughly the same as memory size in the virtual node. iozone has 100 % CPU usage thereafter and it seems that it is traversing page lists. If I do the same with 1-NUMA configuration, everything is ok except performance penalty about 25 %. -- Lukáš Hejtmánek Linux Administrator only because Full Time Multitasking Ninja is not an official job title

[libvirt-users] Which objects does dynamic_ownership apply to?

by Milan Zamazal

Hi, I'm playing with dynamic ownership and not all objects have their owners changed. Is dynamic_ownership and its scope documented somewhere, besides the comment in qemu.conf? And what kinds of objects are handled by dynamic ownership? While some objects seem to be handled, other objects are apparently unaffected. For instance /dev/hwrng or a USB host device keep their root owners and are inaccessible to the VM. Is that expected or do I have anything wrong? Thanks, Milan

[libvirt-users] How to assign IP via virt-install

by Devis Reagan Ponraj -ERS, HCL Tech

Hi Team , I am new to virt-install , need your help pls . With below command I able to create a VM & I can see the mac address as well . virt-install --virt-type=kvm --name newclicentos --ram 6144 --vcpus=2 --import --network=bridge=br0,model=virtio --graphics vnc --disk path=centos7.0.qcow2,size=60,bus=virtio,format=qcow2 --os-variant centos7.0 --mac=00:00:00:00:01:01 With below command I am trying to assign an IP address , however it throws error . I dont want to give --location as I already have the vm build in centos7.0.qcow2 Is there a was I can assign static IP to my VM ? [root@localhost tmp]# virt-install --virt-type=kvm --name newclicentos --ram 6144 --vcpus=2 --import --network=bridge=br0,model=virtio --extra-args "ip=10.254.173.99::10.254.172.1::255.255.254.0::newclicentos:eth0:none" --mac=00:00:00:00:01:01 --graphics vnc --disk path=centos7.0.qcow2,size=60,bus=virtio,format=qcow2 ERROR --extra-args only work if specified with --location.

[libvirt-users] Secondary disk unattached if guest unresponsive and killed with 'virsh destroy'

by Mathew Crane

I have a very strange issue that has plagued our KVM-based hypervisor infrastructure. Environment: - All EL7-based libvirt releases since EL7.0 - Fully patched EL7-based KVM guest on a fully patched EL7-based KVM host. - Secondary disk attached via 'virsh attach-device guest /vm/guest-with-secondary-disk-01/disk2.xml --persistent' (note --persistent flag here) Problem Description: - Guest becomes unresponsive/hangs due to issue on guest. Typically the scenario is that PID1 hangs or goes into a bad state due to a misbehaving application. - Before virsh destroy, 'virsh dumpxml guest | grep vd[ab]' returns the expected filesystems. - Guest is destroyed from the hypervisor via 'virsh destroy guest'. - With guest still powered off, 'virsh dumpxml guest | grep vd[ab]' only shows 'vda'. 'vdb' now unattached. - To fix, requires re-run of 'virsh attach-device guest guest-with-secondary-disk-01/disk2.xml --persistent' Expected Behavior: - 'virsh destroy guest' does not drop the secondary disk attached to the guest if the node is in a hung state. Other notes: - If guest is not in a hung state, 'virsh destroy' does not drop the secondary disk. - 'virsh reset guest' does not exhibit the same behavior when guest is hung - vdb remains attached. - No logs produced in /var/log/libvirt indicating an issue, even with debug logging enabled. Is there any obvious I'm missing? Is this expected behavior?

[libvirt-users] Running libvirtd outside of a shell results in qemu defunct processes

by Roman Mohr

Hi, In KubeVirt we are right now starting libvirt via a wrapper shell script. I want to remove that wrapper and directly start libvirtd from our golang code. This means that our golang code is PID 1 in the container and we start libvirtd as a fork from there. When I did this, strange things started to happen. Libvirt was still able to start and manage qemu processes, but stopping the qemu processes stopped working. I can see that all qemu processes, the ones with VMs and the ones used by libvirt to do some host capability detection, stay in the process table as zombies: qemu 54 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-i38] <defunct> qemu 56 0.2 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-i38] <defunct> qemu 61 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-i38] <defunct> qemu 63 0.1 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-i38] <defunct> qemu 70 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 72 0.2 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 79 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 81 0.2 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 86 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 88 0.3 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 93 0.0 0.0 0 0 ? Zs 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> qemu 95 0.1 0.0 0 0 ? Z 11:44 0:00 [qemu-system-x86] <defunct> So to sum up, when I start our golang wrapper around libvirtd inside a bash script without "exec" everything works as usual. If I start in the container pid namespace the golang wrapper directly, or use "exec" from the bash script, things stop working. I also see the libvirt repeatedly tries to kill the qemu processes, but they are stuck. Maybe someone has a clue why things stop working. Thanks and Best Regards, Roman

[libvirt-users] Shared clipboard not working

by Filipe Laíns

Hi! I have been plaing arround with libvirt and I've ran into a problem that I don't seem to able to fix, sharing the clipboard. Both my host and my guest are running Arch Linux. I have properly installed, enabled and started spice-vdagent on both machines and I don't see any error in the logs. Am I doing anything wrong? Do I need to have anything else in consideration? Any help is appreciated :) Thank you, Filipe Laíns 3DCE 51D6 0930 EBA4 7858 BA41 46F6 33CB B0EB 4BF2

[libvirt-users] Immutable backing files

by Gionatan Danti

Hi list, suppose I have an immutable (ie: due to a read-only snapshot) backing file. After creating an overlay file with "qemu-img create -f qcow2 -o backing_file=/path/to/immutable/file.img current.qcow2", libvirt refuse to start the virtual machine and exits with an error stating "Could not open backing file /path/to/immutable/file.img: Permission denied". From my understanding, libvirtd is trying to change the owner/permissions/selinux context of the backing file but, being it immutable, fails to start the VM. Is that the expected behavior? Thanks. -- Danti Gionatan Supporto Tecnico Assyoma S.r.l. - www.assyoma.it email: g.danti(a)assyoma.it - info(a)assyoma.it GPG public key ID: FF5F32A8

[libvirt-users] Domain vCPU threads affinity

by Nikos Anastopoulos

Hello, According to the docs, vcpupin will use either cgroups or sched_setaffinity to pin vcpu threads to cpus. How is this decision made? I observe differences even on different hosts featuring the same version of libvirtd (1.3.1): on one host vcpupin affects cpuset.cpus (cgroup), and on the other it affects vcpu threads affinity (observed through taskset). Thanks, Nikos

[libvirt-users] How to specify a x509-dir from XML config file?

by 陈炤

Hi Everyone, I'd like to ask a question about libvirt xml config. I am using kvm with tls certification. For some reason I need to specify a unique certificate file for every instance, so my kvm command would be like: /usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -spice port=5900,tls-port=5901,addr=0.0.0.0,disable-ticketing,x509-dir=/openstack/etc/pki/libvirt-spice the argument x509-dir=/openstack/etc/pki/libvirt-spice is specified in /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf. It's a global argument. Can I specify it from xml? I searched the xml doc but unable to find useful infomation. BR Don
