virt-install iscsi direct - Target not found
by kgore4 une
When I try to use an iscsi direct pool in a "--disk" clause for
virt-install, I get error "iSCSI: Failed to connect to LUN : Failed to log
in to target. Status: Target not found(515)". I've seen that sort of error
before when the initiator name isn't used. The SAN returns different LUNS
depending on the initiator.
I've run out of ideas on what to try next. Any advice welcome. I've
included what I thought was relevent below.
klint.
The disk parameter to virt-install is (it's part of a script but the
variables are correct when executed)
[code]
--disk
vol=${poolName}/unit:0:0:${vLun1},xpath.set="./source/initiator/iqn/@name='iqn.2024-11.localdomain.agbu.agbuvh1:${vName}'"
\
[/code]
I added the xpath.set as I noticed that the initiator wasn't in the debug
output of the disk definition and it didn't work without it either.
The iscsi direct pool is defined and it appears to work - it's active and
vol-list shows the correct luns.
Using --debug on virt install, I can see the drive is detected early in the
process as it's got the size of the drive.

So hey let's talk about this nftables ordering situation.
by robinleepowell＠gmail.com
So I, like many other people, have hit problems with nftables ordering, as has been discussed on this mailing list MANY TIMES.
This whole thing seemed ridiculous so I asked the nftables people about what one is *supposed* to do in this situation. It turns out that the standard solution is for libvirt's nftables rules to set a packet mark (there's a collision possibility here but it's a 32 bit integer if you pick one at random it shouldn't be a problem) and then the user adds a rule to exclude packets with that mark from any reject rules they might have, or explicitly accept marked packets in their own chains, or whatever.
It's not *as nice* as the iptables situation, but having documentation that says "if you're using nftables make sure that packets with mark 79892 are accepted in all your chains" is quite straightforward compared to the current situation of "LOL good luck". (I'm not blaming anyone there!, the current situation is impossible for libvirt to navigate and it's not anyone's fault.)
If y'all don't like that, what's working excellently for me is adding `iifname "virbr*" accept` to my rule chain. FWIW.
It was very hard to navigate through this situation because there's no documentation that this problem even exists.
My suggestion is to describe the situation at https://libvirt.org/firewall.html and suggest the virbr* fix, and down the road maybe look at this mark thing.
I'd like to help. I'm happy to write up issues for this, and I'm happy to write the updates to the firewall docs; just tell me what you'd like me to do.

nftables rules (DNS, DHCP, etc) not being written on Fedora 41
by robinleepowell＠gmail.com
I do not think this is any of the similar issues that have been
posted to this list; I've checked.
In particular, this in *NOT* an issue with nft rules precedence; the
rules are simply not being written by libvirt.
I'm running vagrant which is running libvirt on a Fedora 41 host. I
do not think this is a vagrant problem, but if people want me to run
virsh commands directly I certainly can.
Anyway, vagrant was failing until I noticed that the default for
/etc/libvirt/network.conf is now nftables, which I did not have set
up. When I set `firewall_backend = "iptables"`, everything worked
fine.
I want to emphasize that: the same vagrant / libvirt setup *was*
working with iptables.
But I took that as a sign that it was time to move to nftables, so I
moved everything on this host and stuff is back to working.
But libvirt just isn't writing out the right nft rules. Like, at
all.
Here's the network vagrant creates:
$ sudo virsh net-dumpxml vagrant-libvirt
<network connections='1' ipv6='yes'>
<name>vagrant-libvirt</name>
<uuid>b2d93ef4-b305-4382-a380-c1eca92d8ebd</uuid>
<forward mode='nat'>
<nat>
<port start='1024' end='65535'/>
</nat>
</forward>
<bridge name='virbr1' stp='on' delay='0'/>
<mac address='52:54:00:63:d3:f6'/>
<ip address='192.168.121.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'>
<dhcp>
<range start='192.168.121.1' end='192.168.121.254'/>
</dhcp>
</ip>
</network>
And here's the *entire* libvirt-related ruleset in nftables:
table ip libvirt_network {
chain forward {
type filter hook forward priority filter; policy accept;
counter packets 0 bytes 0 jump guest_cross
counter packets 0 bytes 0 jump guest_input

}
}

}
chain guest_cross {

So it's not like trying to create the rules and failing, that I can
see; it just isn't trying.
To clarify this setup appears to be missing every rule that would be
needed for DHCPv4 and DNS to work.
Like https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/88#note_694493261
shows rules for udp 67 and 53 that are just 100% not being created
at all.
I have no idea what's going wrong here or even where to look; the
code at
https://lists.libvirt.org/archives/list/devel@lists.libvirt.org/thread/GT...
sure *looks like* it should be unconditionally adding those rules.

Depends, if you've passed "-Dsystem=true" to meson setup then it should
replace the system binaries and thus SELinux might have the correct policy.
But otherwise, I'd suggest 'meson dist && rpmbuild -ta ...' and then
installing those RPMs.

SEV-SNP Libvirt Support
by Paraskevas Nik
Hello,
I am trying to build libvirt v10.5.0 to support SEV-SNP but when I run
virsh domcapabilities I am getting <sev support=no>. If I install libvirt
8.0.0 using apt install libvirt-daemon-system qemu-kvm them sev shows as
supported. Everything is enabled on the system about SEV, SEV-ES, SEV-SNP.
Is there a specific build option to enable SEV?

Re: Network denied access

Thank you for taking the time to respond. I want to mention that I don't
speak English, and it's difficult for me to understand using a translator.
In the file */etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf*, I have the following:
access_drivers = [ "polkit" ]
The *virtqemud* and *virtnetworkd* services are not installed. I used the
version from the Debian 12 repositories.
systemctl status virtnetworkd.socket
Unit virtnetworkd.socket could not be found.
systemctl status virtqemud.socket
Unit virtqemud.socket could not be found.
In the file */etc/libvirt/qemu.conf*, the default configuration is present.
Best regards.

How can I control iptables/nftables rules addition on libvirtd host on
Debian 12 ?

COMMIT
For some reason, I need to add a couple of other rules.
How can I do that ?

Network denied access
by Rodrigo Prieto
Hello,
I am configuring Polkit using an example I found on the web. It correctly
displays the assigned domain for a given user, but when I try to start the
VM, I get the following error:
error: Failed to start domain 'debian12'
error: access denied: 'network' denied access
Here is my configuration:
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id == "org.libvirt.unix.manage" &&
subject.user == "lolo") {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id.indexOf("org.libvirt.api.domain.") == 0 &&
subject.user == "lolo") {
if (action.lookup("connect_driver") == 'QEMU' &&
action.lookup("domain_name") == 'debian12') {
return polkit.Result.YES;
} else {
return polkit.Result.NO;
}
}
});
To grant network access, I have to configure the following:
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if (action.id.indexOf("org.libvirt.api.network") == 0 &&
subject.user == "lolo") {
return polkit.Result.YES;
}
});
The problem with the previous configuration is that it allows full access
to the network, requiring the following configuration:
polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
if ((action.id == "org.libvirt.api.network.stop" ||
action.id == "org.libvirt.api.network.delete" ||
action.id == "org.libvirt.api.network.write") &&
subject.user == "lolo") {
return polkit.Result.NO;
}
});
By default, shouldn't network access behave like domains or pools, which
cannot be deleted?
I tested it on Libvirt 9.0.0 and 10.0.0
If you can help me, I would really appreciate it.
