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.

When a network device that is a VF of an SR-IOV card was assigned to a
guest using <interface type='hostdev'>, only the MAC address was being
saved/restored, but the VLAN tag was left untouched. Up to now we
haven't actually used vlan tags on SR-IOV devices, so the guest would
have used whatever was set, and left it the same at the end.
The patch following this one will hook up the <vlan> element from the
interface config, so save/restore of the device state needs to also
include the vlan tag.
MAC address is being saved as a simple ASCII string in a file named
for the device under /var/run. The VLAN tag is now just added at the
end of that file, after a newline. It might be nicer if the file was
XML (in case it ever gets more complicated) but at the moment there's
nothing else on the horizon, and this makes backward compatibility
easier.
To allow for the possibility of vlan "trunks", which have more than
one vlan tag associated with them, we need a vlan struct. Since it
will be used by multiple files in src/util, src/conf, src/network, and
src/qemu, it must be defined in src/util. Unfortunately there isn't
currently a common file for simple netdev data definitions, so I
created a new file.
This caused compilation of virnetdevvportprofile.c to fail on systems
without IFLA support in netlink (these are netlink commands used to
configure the VF's of SR-IOV network devices).
It is desirable to be able to query the config params of
the thread pool, in order to save the server state. Add
virThreadPoolGetMinWorkers, virThreadPoolGetMaxWorkers
and virThreadPoolGetPriorityWorkers APIs.

Use of ldexp() requires -lm on some platforms; use gnulib to determine
this for our makefile. Also, optimize virRandomInt() for the case
of a power-of-two limit (actually rather common, given that Daniel
has a pending patch to replace virRandomBits(10) with code that will
default to virRandomInt(1024) on default SELinux settings).
* .gnulib: Update to latest, for ldexp.
* bootstrap.conf (gnulib_modules): Import ldexp.
* src/Makefile.am (libvirt_util_la_CFLAGS): Link with -lm when
needed.
* src/util/virrandom.c (virRandomInt): Optimize powers of 2.
This patch adds three utility functions that operate on
virNetDevVPortProfile objects.
* virNetDevVPortProfileCheckComplete() - verifies that all attributes
required for the type of the given virtport are specified.
* virNetDevVPortProfileCheckNoExtras() - verifies that there are no
attributes specified which are inappropriate for the type of the
given virtport.
* virNetDevVPortProfileMerge3() - merges 3 virtports into a single,
newly allocated virtport. If any attributes are specified in
more than one of the three sources, and do not exactly match,
an error is logged and the function fails.
These new functions depend on new fields in the virNetDevVPortProfile
object that keep track of whether or not each attribute was
specified. Since the higher level parse function doesn't yet set those
fields, these functions are not actually usable yet (but that's okay,
because they also aren't yet used - all of that functionality comes in
a later patch.)
Note that these three functions return 0 on success and -1 on
failure. This may seem odd for the first two Check functions, since
they could also easily return true/false, but since they actually log
an error when the requested condition isn't met (and should result in
a failure of the calling function), I thought 0/-1 was more
appropriate.
virNetDevVPortProfile has (had) a type field that can be set to one of
several values, and a union of several structs, one for each
type. When a domain's interface object is of type "network", the
domain config may not know beforehand which type of virtualport is
going to be provided in the actual device handed down from the network
driver at runtime, but may want to set some values in the virtualport
that may or may not be used, depending on the type. To support this
usage, this patch replaces the union of structs with toplevel fields
in the struct, making it possible for all of the fields to be set at
the same time.
Both of these functions returned void, but it's convenient for them to
return a const char* of the char* that is passed in. This was you can
call the function and use the result in the same expression/arg.
The current virRandomBits() API is only usable if the caller wants
a random number in the range [0, n-1) where n is a power of two.
This adds a virRandom() API which generates a double in the
range [0.0,1.0) with 48 bits of entropy. It then also adds a
virRandomInt(uint32_t max) API which generates an unsigned
in the range [0,@max)

libvirt creates invalid commands if wrong locale is selected. For
example with locale that uses comma as a decimal point, JSON commands
created with decimal numbers are invalid because comma separates the
entries in JSON. Fortunately even when decimal point is affected,
thousands grouping is not, because for grouping to be enabled with
*printf, there has to be an apostrophe flag specified (and supported).
This patch adds specific internal function for converting doubles to
strings with C locale.
This patch introduces a new error code VIR_ERR_OPERATION_UNSUPPORTED to
mark error messages regarding operations that failed due to lack of
support on the hypervisor or other than libvirt issues.
The code is first used in reporting error if qemu does not support block
IO tuning variables yielding error message:
error: Unable to get block I/O throttle parameters
error: Operation not supported: block_io_throttle field
'total_bytes_sec' missing in qemu's output
instead of:
error: Unable to get block I/O throttle parameters
error: internal error cannot read total_bytes_sec
Otherwise, in locations like virobject.c where PROBE is used,
for certain configure options, the compiler warns:
util/virobject.c:110:1: error: 'intptr_t' undeclared (first use in this function)

Prevents libvirt from treating RBD backing stores as files. Without this
patch, creating a domain with a qcow2 overlay on an RBD would fail.
This patch essentially extends 9c7c4a4fc533598e59e9a0038ec783e61a38e664,
which allows nbd backing stores, to allow rbd backing stores.
From man poll(2), poll does not set errno=EAGAIN on interrupt, however
it does set errno=EINTR. Have libvirt retry on the appropriate errno.
Under heavy load, a program of mine kept getting libvirt errors 'poll on
socket failed: Interrupted system call'. The signals were SIGCHLD from
processes forked by threads unrelated to those using libvirt.
This patch is in response to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=818467
If a caller to virCommandRun doesn't ask for the exitstatus of the
program it's running, the virCommand functions assume that they should
log an error message and return failure if the exit code isn't
0. However, only the commandline and exit status are logged, while
potentially useful information sent by the program to stderr is
discarded.
Fortunately, virCommandRun is already checking if the caller had asked
for stderr to be saved and, if not, sets things up to save it in
*cmd->errbuf. This makes it fairly simple for virCommandWait to
include *cmd->errbuf in the error log (there are still other callers
that don't setup errbuf, and even virCommandRun won't set it up if the
command is being daemonized, so we have to check that it's non-zero).
This introduces a fairly basic reference counted virObject type
and an associated virClass type, that use atomic operations for
ref counting.
In a global initializer (recommended to be invoked using the
virOnceInit API), a virClass type must be allocated for each
object type. This requires a class name, a "dispose" callback
which will be invoked to free memory associated with the object's
fields, and the size in bytes of the object struct.
eg,
virClassPtr connclass = virClassNew("virConnect",
sizeof(virConnect),
virConnectDispose);
The struct for the object, must include 'virObject' as its
first member
eg
struct _virConnect {
virObject object;
virURIPtr uri;
};
The 'dispose' callback is only responsible for freeing
fields in the object, not the object itself. eg a suitable
impl for the above struct would be
void virConnectDispose(void *obj) {
virConnectPtr conn = obj;
virURIFree(conn->uri);
}
There is no need to reset fields to 'NULL' or '0' in the
dispose callback, since the entire object will be memset
to 0, and the klass pointer & magic integer fields will
be poisoned with 0xDEADBEEF before being free()d
When creating an instance of an object, one needs simply
pass the virClassPtr eg
virConnectPtr conn = virObjectNew(connclass);
if (!conn)
return NULL;
conn->uri = virURIParse("foo:///bar")
Object references can be manipulated with
virObjectRef(conn)
virObjectUnref(conn)
The latter returns a true value, if the object has been
freed (ie its ref count hit zero)

make this value automatic. And while it may feel like we are
giving up functionality, I documented how to get it back in the

There are a few issues with the current virAtomic APIs
- They require use of a virAtomicInt struct instead of a plain
int type
- Several of the methods do not implement memory barriers
- The methods do not implement compiler re-ordering barriers
- There is no Win32 native impl
The GLib library has a nice LGPLv2+ licensed impl of atomic
ops that works with GCC, Win32, or pthreads.h that addresses
all these problems. The main downside to their code is that
the pthreads impl uses a single global mutex, instead of
a per-variable mutex. Given that it does have a Win32 impl
though, we don't expect anyone to seriously use the pthread.h
impl, so this downside is not significant.

LIBVIRT_DEFAULT_URI="", uri_default="")
- auth_sock_rw="sasl"
- virsh run as root
That are unfortunately the settings with fresh Fedora 17 installation

The check ought to be enough as conn->uri being NULL is valid in later

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.
