system cache dropped
by matus valentin 15 Mar '25

15 Mar '25

Hi, I have a setup with multiple virtual machines (VMs), each with a saved state. All VMs share the same parent, which is located on a shared drive. Whenever I restore any VM using virsh restore, the parent is dropped from the system cache, causing all data to be downloaded from the shared drive again. This results in unnecessary network traffic, even though the parent changes very rarely. However, if I create a child from the parent and call virsh create to create a new VM, the parent is never dropped from the system cache. Is this expected behavior? Should the parent be retained in the system cache during a virsh restore operation? Are there any configurations or settings that can prevent the parent from being dropped from the cache? thanks

best backup strategy for full backup's
by Michael Niehren 10 Mar '25

10 Mar '25

Hi together, actually i only do full-backup's of my virtual machines. I use the for the backup the "old" strategy: - virsh snapshot-create-as $vmname overlay --disk-only --atomic --no-metadata --quiesce - copy the qcow2 image file - virsh blockcommit $vmname $device --active --wait --pivot - the guest agent in the VM got's an 2 seconds freeze/thaw intervall Now i want to switch to the new strategy with "backup-begin". - virsh backup-begin $vmname - the guest agent does not got an freez/thaw signal As the guest agent got's no signal, is the backup over "backup-begin" still consistent ? Or do i have to be consistent to send an virsh domfsfreeze $vmname before starting the backup and an virsh domfsthaw $vmname it it is finished ? If so, the time intervall between freeze/thaw would be on an huge disk much more then 2 secords. So, is the old method currently still the better way, if only doing full-backup's ? best regards, Michael

So hey let's talk about this nftables ordering situation.
by robinleepowell＠gmail.com 26 Feb '25

26 Feb '25

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 22 Feb '25

22 Feb '25

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;

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/GT75… sure *looks like* it should be unconditionally adding those rules.

Does this also installs the correct selinux labels? 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. Michal

How can I do that ? Best regards
