In order to learn libvirt multiqueue several things must be done:
1) The '/dev/net/tun' device needs to be opened multiple times with
IFF_MULTI_QUEUE flag passed to ioctl(fd, TUNSETIFF, &ifr);
2) Similarly, '/dev/vhost-net' must be opened as many times as in 1)
in order to keep 1:1 ratio recommended by qemu and kernel folks.
3) The command line construction code needs to switch from 'fd=X' to
'fds=X:Y:...:Z' and from 'vhostfd=X' to 'vhostfds=X:Y:...:Z'.
4) The monitor handling code needs to learn to pass multiple FDs.
The source code base needs to be adapted as well. Some files
include virutil.h just for the string related functions (here,
the include is substituted to match the new file), some include
virutil.h without any need (here, the include is removed), and
some require both.
This patch refactors various places to allow removing of the
defaultConsoleTargetType callback from the virCaps structure.
A new console character device target type is introduced -
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_NONE - to mark that no type was
specified in the XML. This type is at the end converted to the standard
VIR_DOMAIN_CHR_CONSOLE_TARGET_TYPE_SERIAL. Other types that are
different from this default have to be processed separately in the
device post parse callback.
Format the address using the helper instead of having similar code in
multiple places.
This patch also fixes leak of the MAC address string in
ebtablesRemoveForwardAllowIn() and ebtablesAddForwardAllowIn() in
src/util/virebtables.c
To enable virCapabilities instances to be reference counted,
turn it into a virObject. All cases of virCapabilitiesFree

For S390, the default console target type cannot be of type 'serial'.
It is necessary to at least interpret the 'arch' attribute
value of the os/type element to produce the correct default type.
Therefore we need to extend the signature of defaultConsoleTargetType
to account for architecture. As a consequence all the drivers
supporting this capability function must be updated.
Despite the amount of changed files, the only change in behavior is
that for S390 the default console target type will be 'virtio'.
N.B.: A more future-proof approach could be to to use hypervisor
specific capabilities to determine the best possible console type.
For instance one could add an opaque private data pointer to the
virCaps structure (in case of QEMU to hold capsCache) which could
then be passed to the defaultConsoleTargetType callback to determine
the console target type.
Seems to be however a bit overengineered for the use case...

I hit this problem recently when trying to create a bridge with an IPv6
address on a 3.2 kernel: dnsmasq (and, further, radvd) would not bind to
the given address, waiting 20s and then giving up with -EADDRNOTAVAIL
(resp. exiting immediately with "error parsing or activating the config
file", without libvirt noticing it, BTW). This can be reproduced with (I
think) any kernel >= 2.6.39 and the following XML (to be used with
"virsh net-create"):
<network>
<name>test-bridge</name>
<bridge name='testbr0' />
<ip family='ipv6' address='fd00::1' prefix='64'>
</ip>
</network>
(it happens even when you have an IPv4, too)
The problem is that since commit [1] (which, ironically, was made to
“help IPv6 autoconfiguration”) the linux bridge code makes bridges
behave like “real” devices regarding carrier detection. This makes the
bridges created by libvirt, which are started without any up devices,
stay with the NO-CARRIER flag set, and thus prevents DAD (Duplicate
address detection) from happening, thus letting the IPv6 address flagged
as “tentative”. Such addresses cannot be bound to (see RFC 2462), so
dnsmasq fails binding to it (for radvd, it detects that "interface XXX
is not RUNNING", thus that "interface XXX does not exist, ignoring the
interface" (sic)). It seems that this behavior was enhanced somehow with
commit [2] by avoiding setting NO-CARRIER on empty bridges, but I
couldn't reproduce this behavior on my kernel. Anyway, with the “dummy
tap to set MAC address” trick, this wouldn't work.
To fix this, the idea is to get the bridge's attached device to be up so
that DAD can happen (deactivating DAD altogether is not a good idea, I
think). Currently, libvirt creates a dummy TAP device to set the MAC
address of the bridge, keeping it down. But even if we set this device
up, it is not RUNNING as soon as the tap file descriptor attached to it
is closed, thus still preventing DAD. So, we must modify the API a bit,
so that we can get the fd, keep the tap device persistent, run the
daemons, and close it after DAD has taken place. After that, the bridge
will be flagged NO-CARRIER again, but the daemons will be running, even
if not happy about the device's state (but we don't really care about
the bridge's daemons doing anything when no up interface is connected to
it).
Other solutions that I envisioned were:
* Keeping the *-nic interface up: this would waste an fd for each
bridge during all its life. May be acceptable, I don't really
know.
* Stop using the dummy tap trick, and set the MAC address directly
on the bridge: it is possible since quite some time it seems,
even if then there is the problem of the bridge not being
RUNNING when empty, contrary to what [2] says, so this will need
fixing (and this fix only happened in 3.1, so it wouldn't work
for 2.6.39)
* Using the --interface option of dnsmasq, but I saw somewhere
that it's not used by libvirt for backward compatibility. I am
not sure this would solve this problem, though, as I don't know
how dnsmasq binds itself to it with this option.
This is why this patch does what's described earlier.
This patch also makes radvd start even if the interface is
“missing” (i.e. it is not RUNNING), as it daemonizes before binding to
it, and thus sometimes does it after the interface has been brought down
by us (by closing the tap fd), and then originally stops. This also
makes it stop yelling about it in the logs when the interface is down at
a later time.

This bug was revealed by the crash described in
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=852383
The vlan info pointer sent to virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort should never
be non-NULL unless there is at least one tag. The factthat such a vlan
info pointer was receveid pointed out that a caller was passing the
wrong pointer. Instead of sending &net->vlan, the result of
virDomainNetGetActualVlan(net) should be sent - that function will
look for vlan info in net->data.network.actual->vlan, and in cany case
return NULL instead of a pointer if the vlan info it finds has no
tags.
Aside from causing the crash, sending a hardcoded &net->vlan has the
effect of ignoring vlan info from a <network> or <portgroup> config.
Add the ability to support VLAN tags for Open vSwitch virtual port
types. To accomplish this, modify virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort and
virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort to take a virNetDevVlanPtr
argument. When adding the port to the OVS bridge, setup either a
single VLAN or a trunk port based on the configuration from the
virNetDevVlanPtr.

This is the new interface type that sets up an SR-IOV PCI network
device to be assigned to the guest with PCI passthrough after
initializing some network device-specific things from the config
(e.g. MAC address, virtualport profile parameters). Here is an example
of the syntax:
<interface type='hostdev' managed='yes'>
<source>
<address type='pci' domain='0' bus='0' slot='4' function='3'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0' bus='0' slot='7' function='0'/>
</interface>
This would assign the PCI card from bus 0 slot 4 function 3 on the
host, to bus 0 slot 7 function 0 on the guest, but would first set the
MAC address of the card to 00:11:22:33:44:55.
NB: The parser and formatter don't care if the PCI card being
specified is a standard single function network adapter, or a virtual
function (VF) of an SR-IOV capable network adapter, but the upcoming
code that implements the back end of this config will work *only* with
SR-IOV VFs. This is because modifying the mac address of a standard
network adapter prior to assigning it to a guest is pointless - part
of the device reset that occurs during that process will reset the MAC
address to the value programmed into the card's firmware.
Although it's not supported by any of libvirt's hypervisor drivers,
usb network hostdevs are also supported in the parser and formatter
for completeness and consistency. <source> syntax is identical to that
for plain <hostdev> devices, except that the <address> element should
have "type='usb'" added if bus/device are specified:
<interface type='hostdev'>
<source>
<address type='usb' bus='0' device='4'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
</interface>
If the vendor/product form of usb specification is used, type='usb'
is implied:
<interface type='hostdev'>
<source>
<vendor id='0x0012'/>
<product id='0x24dd'/>
</source>
<mac address='00:11:22:33:44:55'/>
</interface>
Again, the upcoming patch to fill in the backend of this functionality
will log an error and fail with "Unsupported Config" if you actually
try to assign a USB network adapter to a guest using <interface
type='hostdev'> - just use a standard <hostdev> entry in that case
(and also for single-port PCI adapters).
With an additional new bool added to determine whether or not to
discourage the use of the supplied MAC address by the bridge itself,
virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort had three booleans (well, 2 bools and
an int used as a bool) in the arg list, which made it increasingly
difficult to follow what was going on. This patch combines those three
into a single flags arg, which not only shortens the arg list, but
makes it more self-documenting.
When a tap device for a domain is created and attached to a bridge,
the first byte of the tap device MAC address is set to 0xFE, while the
rest is set to match the MAC address that will be presented to the
guest as its network device MAC address. Setting this high value in
the tap's MAC address discourages the bridge from using the tap
device's MAC address as the bridge's own MAC address (Linux bridges
always take on the lowest numbered MAC address of all attached devices
as their own).
In one case within libvirt, a tap device is created and attached to
the bridge with the intent that its MAC address be taken on by the
bridge as its own (this is used to assure that the bridge has a fixed
MAC address to prevent network outages created by the bridge MAC
address "flapping" as guests are started and stopped). In this case,
the first byte of the mac address is *not* altered to 0xFE.
In the current code, callers to virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort each
make the MAC address modification themselves before calling, which
leads to code duplication, and also prevents lower level functions
from knowing the real MAC address being used by the guest. The problem
here is that openvswitch bridges must be informed about this MAC
address, or they will be unable to pass traffic to/from the guest.
This patch centralizes the location of the MAC address "0xFE fixup"
into virNetDevTapCreateInBridgePort(), meaning 1) callers of this
function no longer need the extra strange bit of code, and 2)
bitNetDevTapCreateBridgeInPort itself now is called with the guest's
unaltered MAC address, and can pass it on, unmodified, to
virNetDevOpenvswitchAddPort.
There is no other behavioral change created by this patch.
This patch allows libvirt to add interfaces to already
existing Open vSwitch bridges. The following syntax in
domain XML file can be used:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'/>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
or if libvirt should auto-generate the interfaceid use
following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
</virtualport>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
It is also possible to pass an optional profileid. To do that
use following syntax:
<interface type='bridge'>
<source bridge='ovsbr'/>
<mac address='00:55:1a:65:a2:8d'/>
<virtualport type='openvswitch'>
<parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'
profileid='test-profile'/>
</virtualport>
</interface>
To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:
ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr
This fixes https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=638633
Although scripts are not used by interfaces of type other than
"ethernet" in qemu, due to the fact that the parser stores the script
name in a union that is only valid when type is ethernet or bridge,
there is no way for anyone except the parser itself to catch the
problem of specifying an interface script for an inappropriate
interface type (by the time the parsed data gets back to the code that
called the parser, all evidence that a script was specified is
forgotten).
Since the parser itself should be agnostic to which type of interface
allows scripts (an example of why: a script specified for an interface
of type bridge is valid for xen domains, but not for qemu domains),
the solution here is to move the script out of the union(s) in the
DomainNetDef, always populate it when specified (regardless of
interface type), and let the driver decide whether or not it is
appropriate.
Currently the qemu, xen, libxml, and uml drivers recognize the script
parameter and do something with it (the uml driver only to report that
it isn't supported). Those drivers have been updated to log a
CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED error when a script is specified for an interface
type that's inappropriate for that particular hypervisor.
(NB: There was earlier discussion of solving this problem by adding a
VALIDATE flag to all libvirt APIs that accept XML, which would cause
the XML to be validated against the RNG files. One statement during
that discussion was that the RNG shouldn't contain hypervisor-specific
things, though, and a proper solution to this problem would require
that (again, because a script for an interface of type "bridge" is
accepted by xen, but not by qemu).
A preparatory patch for DHCP snooping where we want to be able to
differentiate between a VM's interface using the tuple of
<VM UUID, Interface MAC address>. We assume that MAC addresses could
possibly be re-used between different networks (VLANs) thus do not only
want to rely on the MAC address to identify an interface.
At the current 'final destination' in virNWFilterInstantiate I am leaving
the vmuuid parameter as ATTRIBUTE_UNUSED until the DHCP snooping patches arrive.
(we may not post the DHCP snooping patches for 0.9.9, though)
Mostly this is a pretty trivial patch. On the lowest layers, in lxc_driver
and uml_conf, I am passing the virDomainDefPtr around until I am passing
only the VM's uuid into the NWFilter calls.
This patch cleans up return codes in the nwfilter subsystem.
Some functions in nwfilter_conf.c (validators and formatters) are
keeping their bool return for now and I am converting their return
code to true/false.
All other functions now have failure return codes of -1 and success
of 0.
[I searched for all occurences of ' 1;' and checked all 'if ' and
adapted where needed. After that I did a grep for 'NWFilter' in the source
tree.]
Following the renaming of the bridge management APIs, we can now
split the source file into 3 corresponding pieces
* src/util/virnetdev.c: APIs for any type of network interface
* src/util/virnetdevbridge.c: APIs for bridge interfaces
* src/util/virnetdevtap.c: APIs for TAP interfaces

src/uml/uml_driver.c: Update #include directives
The existing brXXX APIs in src/util/bridge.h are renamed to
follow one of three different conventions

src/uml/uml_driver.c: Update for API renaming
Currently every caller of the brXXX APIs has to store the returned
errno value and then raise an error message. This results in
inconsistent error messages across drivers, additional burden on
the callers and makes the error reporting inaccurate since it is
hard to distinguish different scenarios from 1 errno value.

src/qemu/qemu_command.c, src/uml/uml_conf.c,
src/uml/uml_driver.c: Remove error reporting code
The bridge management APIs in src/util/bridge.c require a brControl
object to be passed around. This holds the file descriptor for the
control socket. This extra object complicates use of the API for
only a minor efficiency gain, which is in turn entirely offset by
the need to fork/exec the brctl command for STP configuration.
This patch removes the 'brControl' object entirely, instead opening
the control socket & closing it again within the scope of each method.
The parameter names for the APIs are also made to consistently use
'brname' for bridge device name, and 'ifname' for an interface
device name. Finally annotations are added for non-NULL parameters
and return check validation
* src/util/bridge.c, src/util/bridge.h: Remove brControl object
and update API parameter names & annotations.

We already have virAsprintf, so picking a similar name helps for
seeing a similar purpose. Furthermore, the prefix V before printf
generally implies 'va_list', even though this variant was '...', and
the old name got in the way of adding a new va_list version.
global rename performed with:
$ git grep -l virBufferVSprintf \
| xargs -L1 sed -i 's/virBufferVSprintf/virBufferAsprintf/g'
then revert the changes in ChangeLog-old.
