virCommandProcessIO(): make poll() usage more robust POLLIN and POLLHUP are not mutually exclusive. Currently the following seems possible: the child writes 3K to its stdout or stderr pipe, and immediately closes it. We get POLLIN|POLLHUP (I'm not sure that's possible on Linux, but SUSv4 seems to allow it). We read 1K and throw away the rest. When poll() returns and we're about to check the /revents/ member in a given array element, let's map all the revents bits to two (independent) ideas: "let's attempt to read()", and "let's attempt to write()". This should cover all errors, EOFs, and normal conditions; the read()/write() call should report any pending error. Under this approach, both POLLHUP and POLLERR are mapped to "needs read()" if we're otherwise prepared for POLLIN. POLLERR also maps to "needs write()" if we're otherwise prepared for POLLOUT. The rest of the mappings (POLLPRI etc.) would be easy, but probably useless for pipes. Additionally, SUSv4 doesn't appear to forbid POLLIN|POLLERR (or POLLOUT|POLLERR) set simultaneously. One could argue that the read() or write() call would return without blocking in these cases (with an error), so POLLIN / POLLOUT would be justified beside POLLERR. The code now penalizes POLLIN|POLLERR differently from plain POLLERR. The former (ie. read() returning -1) is terminal and we jump to cleanup, while plain POLLERR masks only the affected file descriptor for the future. Let's unify those.

Fix vm's outbound traffic control problem Hello, This is a patch to fix vm's outbound traffic control problem. Currently, vm's outbound traffic control by libvirt doesn't go well. This problem was previously discussed at libvir-list ML, however it seems that there isn't still any answer to the problem. http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-August/msg00333.html I measured Guest(with virtio-net) to Host TCP throughput with the command "netperf -H". Here are the outbound QoS parameters and the results. outbound average rate[kilobytes/s] : Guest to Host throughput[Mbit/s] ====================================================================== 1024 (8Mbit/s) : 4.56 2048 (16Mbit/s) : 3.29 4096 (32Mbit/s) : 3.35 8192 (64Mbit/s) : 3.95 16384 (128Mbit/s) : 4.08 32768 (256Mbit/s) : 3.94 65536 (512Mbit/s) : 3.23 The outbound traffic goes down unreasonably and is even not controled. The cause of this problem is too large mtu value in "tc filter" command run by libvirt. The command uses burst value to set mtu and the burst is equal to average rate value if it's not set. This value is too large. For example if the average rate is set to 1024 kilobytes/s, the mtu value is set to 1024 kilobytes. That's too large compared to the size of network packets. Here libvirt applies tc ingress filter to Host's vnet(tun) device. Tc ingress filter is implemented with TBF(Token Buckets Filter) algorithm. TBF uses mtu value to calculate the amount of token consumed by each packet. With too large mtu value, the token consumption rate is set too large. This leads to token starvation and deterioration of TCP throughput. Then, should we use the default mtu value 2 kilobytes? The anser is No, because Guest with virtio-net device uses 65536 bytes as mtu to transmit packets to Host, and the tc filter with the default mtu value 2k drops packets whose size is larger than 2k. So, the most packets is droped and again leads to deterioration of TCP throughput. The appropriate mtu value is 65536 bytes which is equal to the maximum value of network interface device defined in <linux/netdevice.h>. The value is not so large that it causes token starvation and not so small that it drops most packets. Therefore this patch set the mtu value to 64kb(== 65535 bytes). Again, here are the outbound QoS parameters and the TCP throughput with the libvirt patched. outbound average rate[kilobytes/s] : Guest to Host throughput[Mbit/s] ====================================================================== 1024 (8Mbit/s) : 8.22 2048 (16Mbit/s) : 16.42 4096 (32Mbit/s) : 32.93 8192 (64Mbit/s) : 66.85 16384 (128Mbit/s) : 133.88 32768 (256Mbit/s) : 271.01 65536 (512Mbit/s) : 547.32 The outbound traffic conforms to the given limit.

network: use firewalld instead of iptables, when available * configure.ac, spec file: firewalld defaults to enabled if dbus is available, otherwise is disabled. If --with_firewalld is explicitly requested and dbus is not available, configure will fail. * bridge_driver: add dbus filters to get the FirewallD1.Reloaded signal and DBus.NameOwnerChanged on org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1. When these are encountered, reload all the iptables reuls of all libvirt's virtual networks (similar to what happens when libvirtd is restarted). * iptables, ebtables: use firewall-cmd's direct passthrough interface when available, otherwise use iptables and ebtables commands. This decision is made once the first time libvirt calls iptables/ebtables, and that decision is maintained for the life of libvirtd. * Note that the nwfilter part of this patch was separated out into another patch by Stefan in V2, so that needs to be revised and re-reviewed as well. ================ All the configure.ac and specfile changes are unchanged from Thomas' V3. V3 re-ran "firewall-cmd --state" every time a new rule was added, which was extremely inefficient. V4 uses VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT to set up a one-time initialization function. The VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT(x) macro references a static function called vir(Ip|Eb)OnceInit(), which will then be called the first time that the static function vir(Ip|Eb)TablesInitialize() is called (that function is defined for you by the macro). This is thread-safe, so there is no chance of any race. IMPORTANT NOTE: I've left the VIR_DEBUG messages in these two init functions (one for iptables, on for ebtables) as VIR_WARN so that I don't have to turn on all the other debug message just to see these. Even if this patch doesn't need any other modification, those messages need to be changed to VIR_DEBUG before pushing. This one-time initialization works well. However, I've encountered problems with testing: 1) Whenever I have enabled the firewalld service, *all* attempts to call firewall-cmd from within libvirtd end with firewall-cmd hanging internally somewhere. This is *not* the case if firewall-cmd returns non-0 in response to "firewall-cmd --state" (i.e. *that* command runs and returns to libvirt successfully.) 2) If I start libvirtd while firewalld is stopped, then start firewalld later, this triggers libvirtd to reload its iptables rules, however it also spits out a *ton* of complaints about deletion failing (I suppose because firewalld has nuked all of libvirt's rules). I guess we need to suppress those messages (which is a more annoying problem to fix than you might think, but that's another story). 3) I noticed a few times during this long line of errors that firewalld made a complaint about "Resource Temporarily unavailable. Having libvirtd access iptables commands directly at the same time as firewalld is doing so is apparently problematic. 4) In general, I'm concerned about the "set it once and never change it" method - if firewalld is disabled at libvirtd startup, causing libvirtd to always use iptables/ebtables directly, this won't cause *terrible* problems, but if libvirtd decides to use firewall-cmd and firewalld is later disabled, libvirtd will not be able to recover.
