trustGuestRxFilters broken after upgrade to Debian 12
by Paul B. Henson 01 Nov '24

01 Nov '24

We've been running Debian 11 for a while, using sr-iov: <network> <name>sr-iov-intel-10G-1</name> <uuid>6bdaa4c8-e720-4ea0-9a50-91cb7f2c83b1</uuid> <forward mode='hostdev' managed='yes'> <pf dev='eth2'/> </forward> </network> and allocating vf's from the pool: <interface type='network' trustGuestRxFilters='yes'> <mac address='52:54:00:08:da:5b'/> <source network='sr-iov-intel-10G-1'/> <vlan> <tag id='50'/> </vlan> <model type='virtio'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/> </interface> After upgrading to Debian 12, when I try to start any vm which uses the trustGuestRxFilters option, it fails to start with the message: error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU command 'query-rx-filter': invalid net client name: hostdev0 If I remove the option, it starts fine (but of course is broken functionality wise as the option wasn't there just for fun :) ). Any thoughts on what's going on here? The Debian 12 versions are: libvirt-daemon/stable,now 9.0.0-4 qemu-system-x86/stable,now 1:7.2+dfsg-7+deb12u3 I see Debian 12 backports has version 8.1.2+ds-1~bpo12+1 of qemu, but no newer versions of libvirt. I haven't tried the backports version to see if that resolves the problem. Thanks much...

Error Cannot acquire state change lock from remoteDispatchDomainMigratePrepare3Params during live migration of domains
by Christian Rohmann 25 Apr '24

25 Apr '24

Hallo libvirt-users! we observe lock-ups / timeouts with in prometheus-libvirt-exporter (https://github.com/inovex/prometheus-libvirt-exporter) when libvirt is live-migrating domains: > Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock (held by > monitor=remoteDispatchDomainMigratePrepare3Params) All of the source code can be found at: https://github.com/inovex/prometheus-libvirt-exporter/blob/master/pkg/expor…. Basically the error happens when DomainMemoryStats or other operational domain info is queried via the libvirt socket. 1) We are actually using the read-only socket at '/var/run/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro', so there should not be any locking required. Is there any way to not run into lock contention, like running a request with some "nolock" indication? 2) This being reported as timeout waiting for the lock, what is the timeout and would waiting a bit longer help? Or is the lock active during the whole time a domain live migration is running? 3) Is this in any way related to the type of migration? Tunneled vs. native (https://libvirt.org/migration.html)? 4) Is there any indication that we could use to skip those domains (or certain queries)? The same issue was actually previously reported for another implementation of a Prometheus exporter (https://github.com/kumina/libvirt_exporter/issues/33) Currently the exporter locks up or throws the mentioned timeout errors during the the migration of 200 domains, 5 at a time. It would be awesome to find a way to make this work as smooth as possible, even during live migrations! I am thankful for any insights into how the libvirt socket, the various calls, the locking mechanisms or live migration modes work! Regards Christian

all domains paused, maybe logging might be helpfull
by Lennart Fricke 21 Mar '24

21 Mar '24

Hello, I just hit the situation that all domains on a host where paused due to missing space. It took me some time to figure out that there was no space left for the images on the host. I learned that 'virsh domstate --reason $GUEST' and 'domblkerror $GUEST' could have helped me. But the logs are silent about the problem. Would it be possible to show these problems in logs or is there other documentation than the reference to find out how to troubleshoot those issues? Thank you Lennart

The fact that the device resets so often might suggest a problem with the device itself. But since QEMU is seeing the device (even if only for a brief period), I think libvirt's out of the picture. Perhaps QEMU folks might have a better answer. Michal

PCI Hotplug to a VM does not work in Alma
by Chanda Mendon (cmendon) 19 Mar '24

19 Mar '24

Hi We have a chassis with a peripheral PCI device installed. We have a hypervisor running on the chassis where we have deployed a VM which can use the PCI device once it is attached. When the PCI device is powered on or off we need to do a hotplug in/out using virsh commands. Even though the virsh commands for hotplug is executed successfully, the VM sees the PCI inside the VM for one or 2 secs. What do you think is the issue?

Are their any tools that can automatically migrate VMs from one host to another, like in VMware, proxmox, and oVirt?

Info regarding AMX support and libvirt implications
by Gianluca Cecchi 08 Mar '24

08 Mar '24

Hello, I'm trying to use AMX in my virtual machines. More info on AMX: https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/docs/accelerator-engines/a… My system in test is currently SLES 15 SP5. I'm also verifying in parallel with Suse (especially regarding the backported features in their 5.14 based kernel), but in the meantime I would like to understand implication, if any, of libvirt in the certification loop I have to analyse. From what I see we have in upstream: . support in the KVM kernel module since 5.17 . support of cpu model SapphireRapids, the first offering AMX as an ISA extension, in QEMU since 7.0 Is there any dependance to check on libvirt too? When I run virsh cpu-models x86_64 Is libvirt sw stack querying qemu directly? Or the kvm kernel module? Or any internal "database" file? From man page it is not clear to me what "known" means: " cpu-models Syntax: cpu-models arch Print the list of CPU models known by libvirt for the specified architecture. Whether a specific hypervisor is able to create a domain which uses any of the printed CPU models is a separate question which can be answered by looking at the domain capabilities XML returned by domcapabilities command. Moreover, for some architectures libvirt does not know any CPU models and the usable CPU models are only limited by the hypervisor. This command will print that all CPU models are accepted for these architectures and the actual list of supported CPU models can be checked in the domain capabilities XML. " In SLES 15 SP5 with: qemu-7.1.0-150500.49.9.2.x86_64 kernel-default-5.14.21-150500.55.49.1.x86_64 libvirtd-*-9.0.0-150500.6.11.1.x86_64 I get # virsh cpu-models x86_64 ... Cascadelake-Server Cascadelake-Server-noTSX Icelake-Client Icelake-Client-noTSX Icelake-Server Icelake-Server-noTSX Cooperlake Snowridge athlon phenom Opteron_G1 Opteron_G2 ... # virsh domcapabilities | grep -i sapphirerapid # In fedora39 with qemu-8.1.3-4.fc39.x86_64 kernel-6.7.5-200.fc39.x86_64 libvirt-*-9.7.0-2.fc39.x86_64 I get # virsh cpu-models x86_64 ...

Hello, the libvirt documentation <https://libvirt.org/apps.html> has nothing on installing libvirt to Raspberry Pi 5, so the documentation says to email <https://libvirt.org/contact.html> any suggestions. Cheers, Ken.

virsh undefine --nvram
by Chuck Lever 06 Mar '24

06 Mar '24

Hello - The virsh(1) man page says: > --nvram and --keep-nvram specify accordingly to delete or keep nvram (/domain/os/nvram/) file. However on my Fedora 39 system with libvirt 9.7.0, using "virsh undefine --nvram" option appears to leave the NVRAM backing file: cel@boudin:~$ ls ~/.config/libvirt/qemu/nvram guestfs-02a4oblo9vg7888d_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-7hmiolqcqwz5b0qs_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-el7lqymnwgzpnr38_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-jp0tfneh205xjrh8_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-mhqbp4gwmqsuu9w3_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-sat7x2kgpg9opjds_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-vhhi476rsq7vh83z_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-177mrq9xrb5589wl_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-88p8heyq1j0sy8bk_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-gxul3j9e1h3po19o_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-k0jf8msw4kh3yuff_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-oakcwpbozezvids8_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-sinmkv97r4k4dzcd_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-vj5cu9hgwcv0f18u_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-6jnim67ceme3h369_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-89g707uzdttxb9hv_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-h6vzt9zqxhoxx0hj_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-k4hw4gkcq8u0eebj_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-pljksgeblxgyf0pw_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-t8bnntykpzm3qvh2_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-ynbxqtj01sn4ovwy_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-6sqhenv6ditrq410_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-at8lndx32y69bjmg_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-ht0uycdn3vwdozad_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-lfy19ftph83jo4v0_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-qj0c2u9w2k4ors6h_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-tmq0h36spng4vtwk_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-7erqks7ks5c8rj38_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-ba2kzqxb1pna12l5_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-is7avsxjtnig5kgb_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-m3nrhs3x58rlget9_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-rilsled4ff9wvk6v_VARS.qcow2 guestfs-veebmlno2okc7c8h_VARS.qcow2 cel@boudin:~$ Or perhaps I do not understand what these files are. -- Chuck Lever

山东省女子监狱利用犯
by Bai Guoliang 06 Mar '24

06 Mar '24

*你好!* 山东省女子监狱十一监区利用犯人迫害学员事实补充。狱警纵容犯人打人，这就是犯法，犯人在狱中用暴力手段打人本身就是狱内在犯罪，作为监狱警察不但不制止，还纵容打人，隐瞒事实，找假证据诬赖被害人，次数不断增加，致使宋春梅越来越猖狂，这是罪上加罪。犯人是狱内在犯罪，按照监狱内部规定这必须要关禁闭高戒备，但监狱不仅不管还隐瞒事实，找人制造假证据反制被害者。这种行为太恶劣，构成犯罪。 *👉 详情请看附件。* 感谢你阅读这篇文章！ --- *法轮大法是佛法, 是正法。诚念九字真言得福报。* *法轮大法好，真善忍好* 几十年来，在中共的洗脑灌输下，大量的中国人被迫加入了共产党和其附属组织（共青团、少先队）。在「全球退党运动」中，中国人民正在从中共的谎言中觉醒。他们公开声明退出中共，远离邪恶。此时此刻，我们要让世界听到我们声音: 打倒中共恶魔！结束中共！迄今为止, 2024年2月12日 426,111,490 中国民众退出共产党，及其附属组织
