Running libvirtd inside chroot (mock to be precise)
by Marcin Sobczyk 13 May '20

13 May '20

Hi, I was wondering whether it's possible to run libvirtd inside a chroot environment. The assumption is that only one instance of libvirtd would be running on the machine at a time, but still, inside chroot. Currently in my chroot env I have: - /dev/kvm added with mknod - /dev/vhost-net added with mknod - mounted: - /dev/net - /dev/shm - /run/dbus When I run libvirtd in non-daemon mode I get one error: 2020-05-13 10:06:27.480+0000: 28555: error : virNetDevBridgeCreate:484 : error creating bridge interface virbr0: File exists but it seems to me that libvirtd can live with that. When I try to run a VM however I get a qemu error reported: 2020-05-13 08:56:51.643+0000: starting up libvirt version: 4.5.0, package: 35.3.module_el8.1.0+297+df420408 (CentOS Buildsys <bugs(a)centos.org>, 2020-04-10-11:06:38, ), qemu version: 2.12.0qemu-kvm-2.12.0-88.module_el8.1.0+297+df420408.3, kernel: 4.18.0-80.el8.x86_64, hostname: .....

blockcommit --pivot does not succeed in conjunction with qemu 5.0.0
by Thomas Stein 11 May '20

11 May '20

Hello one and all. Got a problem with libvirt 6.2.0 and qemu 5.0.0. virsh blockcommit mymachine vda --active --verbose --pivot works until it shows [100%] but it never actually pivots. It just sits there. Is this a known issue with 6.2.0 and i should try 6.3.0? For now i switched back to qemu 4.2.0 and this seems to solve the issue too. Any hints? Ahoi! t.

Nested Virtualization on Google Cloud.
by Tanmoy Sinha 10 May '20

10 May '20

I am using nested virtualization on a Google Cloud Compute instance. Things are generally working fine with libvirt using qemu+kvm, however I observed that <cpu mode='host-model'> is not exposing avx and avx2 instruction set to the guest Linux instance. Google Cloud platform claims the CPU model of the host compute instance is Broadwell, however libvirt capabilities maps it to Westmere-IBRS and it has avx and avx2 features, yet host-model is not exposing those. As a workaround, I am using <cpu mode='host-passthrough'>, but I would like to know what is going wrong here? I can also share the output of cpuid of the host system, if that helps. I am not sure whether it's a libvirt issue or something to do with KVM. Any help would be appreciated.

Libvirt APIs for creating virtual networks
by Santhosh Kumar Gunturu 08 May '20

08 May '20

I am using the Libvirt APIs to create the virtual networks to use the dnsmasq capabilities. I want to understand the APIs how to set the lease time in XML to control the dnsmasq lease time. Also, I need some DHCP statistics on the virtual network. Is there any API available to fetch the statistics ? Please let me know if any ? Thanks & Regards Santhosh Kumar Gunturu

sync guest time
by Miguel Duarte de Mora Barroso 30 Apr '20

30 Apr '20

Hi, I'm seeing the following issue when attempting to update the guest's clock on a running fc32 guest (using guest agent): ``` [root@virt-launcher-vmi-masquerade-mh2xm /]# virsh domtime 1 --pretty Time: 2020-04-30 23:27:29 [root@virt-launcher-vmi-masquerade-mh2xm /]# virsh domtime 1 --sync error: internal error: unable to execute QEMU agent command 'guest-set-time': hwclock failed to set hardware clock to system time # now, this one works. [root@virt-launcher-vmi-masquerade-mh2xm /]# virsh domtime 1 --now [root@virt-launcher-vmi-masquerade-44v2x /]# virsh domtime 1 --pretty Time: 2020-04-30 11:15:45 ``` This is the simplest reproducer I could come with; the original issue is this call to libvirt's `setTIme` in [0]. Is there any workaround I could try ? Am I doing something wrong here ? [0] - https://github.com/kubevirt/kubevirt/blob/6bb516148ce4c29825ae74f473e022075…
