If no 'listen' attribute or <listen> element is set in the
guest XML, the default driver configured listen address is
used. There is no way to client applications to determine
what this address is though. When starting the guest, we
should update the live XML to include this default listen
address
With latest changes to qemu-ga success on some commands is not reported
anymore, e.g. guest-shutdown or guest-suspend-*. However, errors are
still being reported. Therefore, we need to find different source of
indication if operation was successful. Events.
A core use case of the hook scripts is to be able to do things
to a guest's network configuration. It is possible to hook into
the 'start' operation for a QEMU guest which runs just before
the guest is started. The TAP devices will exist at this point,
but the QEMU process will not. It can be desirable to have a
'started' hook too, which runs once QEMU has started.
If libvirtd is restarted it will re-populate firewall rules,
but there is no QEMU hook to trigger for existing domains.
This is solved with a 'reconnect' hook.
Finally, if attaching to an external QEMU process there needs
to be an 'attach' hook script.
This all also applies to the LXC driver

and 'attach' operations for QEMU. Add 'prepare', 'started',

Currently, if qemuProcessStart fail at some point, e.g. because
domain being started wants a PCI/USB device already assigned to
a different domain, we jump to cleanup label where qemuProcessStop
is performed. This unconditionally calls virSecurityManagerRestoreAllLabel
which is wrong because the other domain is still using those devices.
However, once we successfully label all devices/paths in
qemuProcessStart() from that point on, we have to perform a rollback
on failure - that is - we have to virSecurityManagerRestoreAllLabel.
When libvirtd is started and there is an unusable/not-connectable
leftover from earlier started machine, it's more reasonable to say
that the machine "crashed" if we know it was started with
"-no-shutdown".
This patch fixes that and also changes the other result (when machine
was started without "-no-shutdown") to "unknown", because the previous
"failed" reason means (according to include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in:174),
that the machine failed to start.
Like for 'static' placement, when the memory policy mode is
'strict', set the memory policy by writing the advisory nodeset
returned from numad to cgroup file cpuset.mems,
On some of the NUMA platforms, the CPU index in each NUMA node
grows non-consecutive. While on other platforms, it can be inconsecutive,
E.g.
% numactl --hardware
available: 4 nodes (0-3)
node 0 cpus: 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 28
node 0 size: 131058 MB
node 0 free: 86531 MB
node 1 cpus: 1 5 9 13 17 21 25 29
node 1 size: 131072 MB
node 1 free: 127070 MB
node 2 cpus: 2 6 10 14 18 22 26 30
node 2 size: 131072 MB
node 2 free: 127758 MB
node 3 cpus: 3 7 11 15 19 23 27 31
node 3 size: 131072 MB
node 3 free: 127226 MB
node distances:
node 0 1 2 3
0: 10 20 20 20
1: 20 10 20 20
2: 20 20 10 20
3: 20 20 20 10
This patch is to fix the problem by using the CPU index in
caps->host.numaCell[i]->cpus[i] to set the bitmask instead of
assuming the CPU index of the NUMA nodes are always sequential.
This patch lifts the limit of calling thread detection code only on KVM
guests. With upstream qemu the thread mappings are reported also on
non-KVM machines.
QEMU adopted the thread_id information from the kvm branch.
To remain compatible with older upstream versions of qemu the check is
attempted but the failure to detect threads (or even run the monitor
command - on older versions without SMP support) is treated non-fatal
and the code reports one vCPU with pid of the hypervisor (in same
fashion this was done on non-KVM guests).
Though numad will manage the memory allocation of task dynamically,
it wants management application (libvirt) to pre-set the memory
policy according to the advisory nodeset returned from querying numad,
(just like pre-bind CPU nodeset for domain process), and thus the
performance could benefit much more from it.
This patch introduces new XML tag 'placement', value 'auto' indicates
whether to set the memory policy with the advisory nodeset from numad,
and its value defaults to the value of <vcpu> placement, or 'static'
if 'nodeset' is specified. Example of the new XML tag's usage:
<numatune>
<memory placement='auto' mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
Just like what current "numatune" does, the 'auto' numa memory policy
setting uses libnuma's API too.
If <vcpu> "placement" is "auto", and <numatune> is not specified
explicitly, a default <numatume> will be added with "placement"
set as "auto", and "mode" set as "strict".
The following XML can now fully drive numad:
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no <numatune> is specified.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', no 'placement' is specified for
<numatune>.
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave'/>
</numatune>
And it's also able to control the CPU placement and memory policy
independently. e.g.
1) <vcpu> placement is 'auto', and <numatune> placement is 'static'
<vcpu placement='auto'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='strict' nodeset='0-10,^7'/>
</numatune>
2) <vcpu> placement is 'static', and <numatune> placement is 'auto'
<vcpu placement='static' cpuset='0-24,^12'>10</vcpu>
<numatune>
<memory mode='interleave' placement='auto'/>
</numatume>
A follow up patch will change the XML formatting codes to always output
'placement' for <vcpu>, even it's 'static'.
When we added the default USB controller into domain XML, we efficiently
broke migration to older versions of libvirt that didn't support USB
controllers at all (0.9.4 and earlier) even for domains that don't use
anything that the older libvirt can't provide. We still want to present
the default USB controller in any XML seen by a user/app but we can
safely remove it from the domain XML used during migration. If we are
migrating to a new enough libvirt, it will add the controller XML back,
while older libvirt won't be confused with it although it will still
tell qemu to create the controller.
Similar approach can be used in the future whenever we find out we
always enabled some kind of device without properly advertising it in
domain XML.

Currently, we have 3 boolean arguments we have to pass
to qemuProcessStart(). As libvirt grows it is harder and harder
to remember them and their position. Therefore we should
switch to flags instead.
Instead of returning a CPUs list, numad returns NUMA node
list instead, this patch is to convert the node list to
cpumap before affinity setting. Otherwise, the domain
processes will be pinned only to CPU[$numa_cell_num],
which will cause significiant performance losses.
Also because numad will balance the affinity dynamically,
reflecting the cpuset from numad back doesn't make much
sense then, and it may just could produce confusion for
the users. Thus the better way is not to reflect it back
to XML. And in this case, it's better to ignore the cpuset
when parsing XML.
The codes to update the cpuset is removed in this patch
incidentally, and there will be a follow up patch to ignore
the manually specified "cpuset" if "placement" is "auto",
and document will be updated too.
In case an API fails with "cannot acquire state change lock", searching
for the API that possibly forgot to end its job is not always easy.
Let's keep track of the job owner and print it out for easier
identification.
As reported by Daniel Berrangé, we have a huge performance regression
for virDomainGetInfo() due to the change which makes virDomainEndJob()
save the XML status file every time it is called. Previous to that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() took ~2.5 seconds. After that
change, 2000 calls to virDomainGetInfo() take 2 *minutes* 45 secs.
We made the change to be able to recover from libvirtd restart in the
middle of a job. However, only destroy and async jobs are taken care of.
Thus it makes more sense to only save domain state XML when these jobs
are started/stopped.
If the daemon is restarted it will lose list of active
USB devices assigned to active domains. Therefore we need
to rebuild this list on qemuProcessReconnect().
Originally, qemuDomainCheckEjectableMedia was entering monitor with qemu
driver lock. Commit 2067e31bf9, which I
made to fix that, revealed another issue we had (but didn't notice it
since the driver was locked): we didn't set nested job when
qemuDomainCheckEjectableMedia is called during migration. Thus the
original fix I made was wrong.
Since Xen 3.1 the clock=variable semantic is supported. In addition to
qemu/kvm Xen also knows about a variant where the offset is relative to
'localtime' instead of 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'basis' to specify, if the
offset is relative to 'localtime' or 'utc'.
Extends the libvirt structure with a flag 'reset' to force the reset
behaviour of 'localtime' and 'utc'; this is needed for backward
compatibility with previous versions of libvirt, since they report
incorrect XML.
Adapt the only user 'qemu' to the new name.
Extend the RelaxNG schema accordingly.
Document the new 'basis' attribute in the HTML documentation.
Adapt test for the new attribute.

When qemu cannot start, we may call qemuProcessStop() twice.
We have check whether the vm is running at the beginning of
qemuProcessStop() to avoid libvirt deadlock. We call
qemuProcessStop() with driver and vm locked. It seems that
we can avoid libvirt deadlock. But unfortunately we may
unlock driver and vm in the function qemuProcessKill() while
vm->def->id is not -1. So qemuProcessStop() will be run twice,
and monitor will be freed unexpectedly. So we should set
vm->def->id to -1 at the beginning of qemuProcessStop().
Found when attempting to build on Fedora 17 alpha with:
./autogen.sh --system --enable-compile-warnings=error
(this same build command works without problem on Fedora 16). Since
the consumer of the qemuProcessReconnectData doesn't assume that the
other fields of the struct are initialized (although it uses them
internally), the simpler solution is to just switch to C99-style
struct initialization (which doesn't require specification of all
fields).
Return statements with parameter enclosed in parentheses were modified
and parentheses were removed. The whole change was scripted, here is how:
List of files was obtained using this command:
git grep -l -e '\<return\s*([^()]*\(([^()]*)[^()]*\)*)\s*;' | \

sed -i -e \

-e 's_^\(.*\<return\)\s*(\([^()]*\))\s*\(;.*$\)_\1 \2\3_'
Then checked for nonsense.
The whole command looks like this:

This introduces a new running reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP,
and new suspend event type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
While a wakeup event is emitted, the domain which entered into
VIR_DOMAIN_PMSUSPENDED will be transferred to "running"
with reason VIR_DOMAIN_RUNNING_WAKEUP, and a new domain lifecycle
event emitted with type VIR_DOMAIN_EVENT_STARTED_WAKEUP.
This patch introduces a new event type for the QMP event
SUSPEND:

The event doesn't take any data, but considering there might
be reason for wakeup in future, the callback definition is:

"reason" is unused currently, always passes "0".

numad is an user-level daemon that monitors NUMA topology and
processes resource consumption to facilitate good NUMA resource
alignment of applications/virtual machines to improve performance
and minimize cost of remote memory latencies. It provides a
pre-placement advisory interface, so significant processes can
be pre-bound to nodes with sufficient available resources.
More details: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/numad
"numad -w ncpus:memory_amount" is the advisory interface numad
provides currently.
This patch add the support by introducing a new XML attribute
for <vcpu>. e.g.
<vcpu placement="auto">4</vcpu>
<vcpu placement="static" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>
The returned advisory nodeset from numad will be printed
in domain's dumped XML. e.g.
<vcpu placement="auto" cpuset="1-10^6">4</vcpu>
If placement is "auto", the number of vcpus and the current
memory amount specified in domain XML will be used for numad
command line (numad uses MB for memory amount):
numad -w $num_of_vcpus:$current_memory_amount / 1024
The advisory nodeset returned from numad will be used to set
domain process CPU affinity then. (e.g. qemuProcessInitCpuAffinity).
If the user specifies both CPU affinity policy (e.g.
(<vcpu cpuset="1-10,^7,^8">4</vcpu>) and placement == "auto"
the specified CPU affinity will be overridden.
Only QEMU/KVM drivers support it now.
See docs update in patch for more details.
Even though we say in documentation setting (tls-)port to -1 is legacy
compat style for enabling autoport, we're roughly doing this for VNC.
However, in case of SPICE auto enable autoport iff both port & tlsPort
are equal -1 as documentation says autoport plays with both.
Currently, startupPolicy='requisite' was determining cold boot
by migrateFrom != NULL. That means, if domain was started up
with migrateFrom set we didn't require disk source path and allowed
it to be dropped. However, on snapshot-revert domain wasn't migrated
but according to documentation, requisite should drop disk source
as well.
Using 'unsigned long' for memory values is risky on 32-bit platforms,
as a PAE guest can have more than 4GiB memory. Our API is
(unfortunately) locked at 'unsigned long' and a scale of 1024, but
the rest of our system should consistently use 64-bit values,
especially since the previous patch centralized overflow checking.

No thanks to 64-bit windows, with 64-bit pid_t, we have to avoid
constructs like 'int pid'. Our API in libvirt-qemu cannot be
changed without breaking ABI; but then again, libvirt-qemu can
only be used on systems that support UNIX sockets, which rules
out Windows (even if qemu could be compiled there) - so for all
points on the call chain that interact with this API decision,
we require a different variable name to make it clear that we

</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'

</virtualport>
</interface>
To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:
ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr
The current default method of terminating the qemu process is to send
a SIGTERM, wait for up to 1.6 seconds for it to cleanly shutdown, then
send a SIGKILL and wait for up to 1.4 seconds more for the process to
terminate. This is problematic because occasionally 1.6 seconds is not
long enough for the qemu process to flush its disk buffers, so the
guest's disk ends up in an inconsistent state.
Since this only occasionally happens when the timeout prior to SIGKILL
is 1.6 seconds, this patch increases that timeout to 10 seconds. At
the very least, this should reduce the occurrence from "occasionally"
to "extremely rarely". (Once SIGKILL is sent, it waits another 5
seconds for the process to die before returning).
Note that in the cases where it takes less than this for qemu to
shutdown cleanly, libvirt will *not* wait for any longer than it would
without this patch - qemuProcessKill polls the process and returns as
soon as it is gone.
