Currently, if there's no hard memory limit defined for a domain,
libvirt tries to calculate one, based on domain definition and magic
equation and set it upon the domain startup. The rationale behind was,
if there's a memory leak or exploit in qemu, we should prevent the
host system trashing. However, the equation was too tightening, as it
didn't reflect what the kernel counts into the memory used by a
process. Since many hosts do have a swap, nobody hasn't noticed
anything, because if hard memory limit is reached, process can
continue allocating memory on a swap. However, if there is no swap on
the host, the process gets killed by OOM killer. In our case, the qemu
process it is.
To prevent this, we need to relax the hard RSS limit. Moreover, we
should reflect more precisely the kernel way of accounting the memory
for process. That is, even the kernel caches are counted within the
memory used by a process (within cgroups at least). Hence the magic
equation has to be changed:
limit = 1.5 * (domain memory + total video memory) + (32MB for cache
per each disk) + 200MB

Since we daemonized QEMU for capabilities probing there is a long
time if QEMU fails to launch. This is because we're not passing in
any virDomainObjPtr instance and thus the monitor code can not

The current code is initializing capabilities before setting
directory permissions. Thus the QEMU binaries being run may
not have the ability to create the UNIX monitor socket on
the first run of libvirtd.
This prevents domain starting and disk attaching if the shared disk's
setting conflicts with other active domain(s), E.g. A domain with
"sgio" set as "filtered", however, another active domain is using
it set as "unfiltered".
This introduces a hash table for qemu driver, to store the shared
disk's info as (@major:minor, @ref_count). @ref_count is the number
of domains which shares the disk.
Since we only care about if the disk support unprivileged SG_IO
commands, and the SG_IO commands only make sense for block disk,
this patch only manages (add/remove hash entry) the shared disk for
block disk.

virHashTablePtr; Declare helpers

When the disk alignment check done while redefining an existing snapshot
failed, the qemu driver attempted to free the existing snapshot. As in
the cleanup path the definition of the snapshot wasn't assigned, the
cleanup code dereferenced a NULL pointer.
This patch changes the behavior on error paths while redefining snapshot
in two ways:
1) On failure, modifications done on the snapshot definition object are
rolled back.
2) The previous definition of the data isn't freed until it's certain it
won't be needed any more.
This change avoids the segfault and additionally the snapshot doesn't
vanish if redefinition fails for some reason.
This also changes the function signature to take a
virDomainChrSourceDefPtr instead of just a path, since it needs to
differentiate behavior based on source->type.
The functionality provided in virchrdev.c (previously virconsole.c) is
applicable to other types of character devices besides consoles, such
as channels. This patch is just code motion, renaming things such as
"console" or "pty", instead using more general terms such as
"character device" or "device path".
Since 4c993d8a we failed to set this important capability, which
allows starting a domain with QXL video card. We set DEVICE_QXL
capability bit instead, which is not necessary wrong. Anyway, if
qemu supports the new '-device qxl' it supports older '-vga qxl'
as well. The latter is used for the primary (the first) qxl video
card, the former for other video cards.
Commit b3f2b4ca5c left buf unallocated in
the case of QMP capability probing being used, leading to a segfault in
strlen in the cleanup path.
This patch opens the log and allocates the buffer if QMP probing was
used, so we can display the helpful error message.
Despite our great effort we still parsed qemu log output.
We wouldn't notice unless upcoming qemu 1.4 changed the
format of the logs slightly. Anyway, now we should gather
all interesting knobs like pty paths from monitor. Moreover,
since for historical reasons the first console can be just
an alias to the first serial port, we need to check this and
copy the pty path if that's the case to the first console.
This reverts commit 28224c4d2a
which shouldn't be needed at all because with current qemu
we obtain all paths from 'query-chardev' output. We ought
not parse log output at all anymore.
Since 586502189edf9fd0f89a83de96717a2ea826fdb0 qemu commit, the log
lines reporting chardev's path has changed from:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -serial pty -serial pty -monitor pty
char device redirected to /dev/pts/5
char device redirected to /dev/pts/6
char device redirected to /dev/pts/7
to:
$ ./x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -serial pty -serial pty -monitor pty
char device compat_monitor0 redirected to /dev/pts/5
char device serial0 redirected to /dev/pts/6
char device serial1 redirected to /dev/pts/7
However, with current code we are not prepared for such change, which
results in us being unable to start any domain.
Many internal qemu APIs must find domain object from passed
virDomainPtr. And with function Peter's introduced, we can use it
instead of copying multiple lines among code.
Since we switched to QMP probing, the object types are spelled out
explicitly, i.e. virtio-net-pci. This has effectively disabled
the capability detection of s390 virtio devices. The trivial fix
is to add the s390 virtio types explicitly to qemuCapsObjectProps.

The code for doing a block-copy was supposed to track the destination
file in drive->mirror, but was set up to do all mallocs prior to
starting the copy so that OOM wouldn't leave things partially started.
However, the wrong variable was being written; later in the code we
silently did 'disk->mirror = mirror' which was still NULL, and thus
leaking memory and leaving libvirt to think that the mirror job was
never started, which prevented a pivot operation after a copy.

When a network device's bridge connection is changed by
virDomainUpdateDevice, libvirt first removes the netdev's tap from its
old bridge, then adds it to the new bridge. Sometimes, due to a
network being destroyed while a guest device is still attached, the
tap may already be "removed" from the old bridge (or the old bridge
may not even exist any more); the existing code was needlessly failing
the update when this happened, making it impossible to recover from
the situation without completely detaching (i.e. removing) the netdev
from the guest and re-attaching.
Instead of failing the entire operation when removal of the tap from
the old bridge fails, this patch changes qemuDomainChangeNetBridge to
just log a warning and continue, allowing a reasonable recover from
the situation.
(you'll appreciate this change if you ever accidentally destroy a
network while your guests are still using it).

This patch adds a new domain lookup helper qemuDomObjFromDomainDriver

mountpoint and unlinking it as soon as it has mmap()d it, therefore we
cannot predict the full pathname, but for the same reason it is generally
safe to provide access to $path/**.

This patch exports qemuMigrationIsAllowed and adds a new parameter to it
to denote if it's a remote migration or a local migration. Local
migrations are used in snapshots and saving of the machine state and
have fewer restrictions. This patch also adjusts callers of the function
and tweaks some error messages to be more universal.
Currently there is no way to detect it via QMP and requesting "-sandbox
off" works correctly even if it was compiled out, so this will work
unless someone both requests the sandbox in qemu.conf and builds QEMU
without the support for it.
These classes can borrow unused bandwidth. Basically,
only egress qdsics can have classes, therefore we can
do this kind of traffic shaping only on host's outgoing,
that is domain's incoming traffic.
When the disk snapshot part of an external system checkpoint fails the

In case the snapshot code isn't able to restart CPUs after an external

patch fixes the cleanup path.
False positive, but it breaks the build with gcc-4.6.3.

uninitialized in this function [-Werror=uninitialized]
qemu/qemu_migration.c:2887:10: note: 'offline' was declared here
When restarting CPUs after an external snapshot, the restarting function
was called without the appropriate async job type. This caused that a
new sync job wasn't created and allowed races in the monitor.
Offline migration transfers inactive definition of a domain (which may
or may not be active). After successful completion, the domain remains
in its current state on source host and is defined but inactive on
destination host. It's a bit more clever than virDomainGetXMLDesc() on
source host followed by virDomainDefineXML() on destination host, as
offline migration will run pre-migration hook to update the domain XML
on destination host. Currently, copying non-shared storage is not
supported during offline migration.
Offline migration can be requested with a new migration flag called
VIR_MIGRATE_OFFLINE (which has to be combined with
VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag).
This fixes a problem that showed up during testing of:

Due to a logic error in the function that gets the name of the bridge
an interface connects to, any time a bridge was specified directly
(type='bridge') rather than indirectly (type='network'), An error
would be logged (although the operation would then complete
successfully):
Network type 6 is not supported
The final virReportError() in the function
qemuDomainNetGetBridgeName() was apparently avoided in the past with a
"goto cleanup" at the end of each case, but the case of bridge somehow
no longer has that final goto cleanup.
The proper solution is anyway to not rely on goto's, but put the error
log inside an else {} clause, so that it's executed only if the type
is neither bridge nor network (in reality, this function should only
ever be called for those two types, that's why this is an internal
error).
While making this change, the error message was also tuned to be more
correct (since it's not really the type of the network, but the type
of the interface, and it *is* otherwise supported, it's just that the
interface type in question doesn't *have* a bridge device associated
with it, or at least we don't know how to get it).
If a network interface model is not specified, libvirt will run
into an unchecked NULL pointer coredump. On the other hand if
the empty model is ignored, a PCI bus address would be generated,
which is not supported by S390.
Since the only valid network type model for S390 is virtio,
we use this as the default value, which is the same for QEMU.

Since we can't (currently) rely on the ability to provide blanket
support for all possible network changes by calling the toplevel
netdev hostside disconnect/connect functions (due to qemu only
supporting a lockstep between initialization of host side and guest
side of devices), in order to support live change of an interface's
nwfilter we need to make a special purpose function to only call the
nwfilter teardown and setup functions if the filter for an interface
(or its parameters) changes. The pattern is nearly identical to that
used to change the bridge that an interface is connected to.

Libvirt should not attempt to call a QMP command that has not been
documented in qemu.git - if future qemu introduces a command by the
same name but with subtly different semantics, then libvirt will be
broken when trying to use that command.
We also had some code that could never be reached - some of our
commands have an alternate for new vs. old qemu HMP commands; but
if we are new enough to support QMP, we only need a fallback to
the new HMP counterpart, and don't need to try for a QMP counterpart
for the old HMP version.
See also this attempt to convert the three snapshot commands to QMP:

That thread eventually decided that qemu would use the name

QMP Capability probing will fail if QEMU cannot bind to the
QMP monitor socket in the qemu_driver->libDir directory.
That's because the child process is stripped of all
capabilities and this directory is chown'ed to the configured
QEMU user/group (normally qemu:qemu) by the QEMU driver.
To prevent this from happening, the driver startup will now pass
the QEMU uid and gid down to the capability probing code.
All capability probing invocations of QEMU will be run with
the configured QEMU uid instead of libvirtd's.

The actual regression is due to a latent bug. The hot unplug code

on the XML passed in by the user, rather than based on the domain's
details on which disk was being deleted. As long as the revoke
path was always recomputing the backing chain, this didn't really
matter; but now that we want to compute the chain exactly once and
remember that computation, we need to hang on to the backing chain

The error "... but the cause is unknown" appeared for XMLs similar to
this:
<disk type='file' device='cdrom'>
<driver name='qemu' type='raw'/>
<source file='/dev/zero'/>
<target dev='sr0'/>
</disk>
Notice unsupported disk type (for the driver), but also no address
specified. The first part is not a problem and we should not abort
immediately because of that, but the combination with the address
unknown was causing an unspecified error.
While fixing this, I added an error to one place where this return
value was not managed properly.
I have been testing libvirt v1.0.0 for deployment within my
organization, and in the process discovered what appears to be a bug
that breaks virsh attach-device, when attaching an RBD volume to an
instance. First, here is the error presented, with v1.0.0 (this worked
in v0.10.2):
[root@host ~]# virsh attach-device W5APQ8 G84VV1.xml
error: Failed to attach device from G84VV1.xml
error: cannot open file 'dc3-1-test/G84VV1': No such file or directory
Using git bisect, I narrowed the problem down to this as the first
commit to break this setup:
4d34c92947 is the first bad commit
Upcoming patches for revert-and-clone branching of snapshots need
to be able to copy a domain definition; make this step reusable.
* src/conf/domain_conf.h (virDomainDefCopy): New prototype.
* src/conf/domain_conf.c (virDomainObjCopyPersistentDef): Split...
(virDomainDefCopy): ...into new function.
(virDomainObjSetDefTransient): Use it.
* src/libvirt_private.syms (domain_conf.h): Export it.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainRevertToSnapshot): Use it.
This patch adds a helper to determine if snapshots are external and uses
the helper to fix detection of those in snapshot deletion code.
Snapshots are external if they have an external memory image or if the
disk locations are external. As mixed snapshots are forbidden for now
we need to check just one disk to know.
Currently, if user calls virDomainAbortJob we just issue
'migrate_cancel' and hope for the best. However, if user calls
the API in wrong phase when migration hasn't been started yet
(perform phase) the cancel request is just ignored. With this
patch, the request is remembered and as soon as perform phase
starts, migration is cancelled.
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...

When the libvirt daemon is restarted it tries to reconnect to running
qemu domains. Since commit d38897a5d4 the
re-connection code runs in separate threads. In the original
implementation the maximum of domain ID's (that is used as an
initializer for numbering guests created next) while libvirt was
reconnecting to the guest.
With the threaded implementation this opens a possibility for race
conditions with the thread that is autostarting guests. When there's a
guest running with id 1 and the daemon is restarted. The autostart code
is reached first and spawns the first guest that should be autostarted
as id 1. This results into the following unwanted situation:
# virsh list
Id Name State
----------------------------------------------------
1 guest1 running
1 guest2 running
This patch extracts the detection code before the re-connection threads
are started so that the maximum id of the guests being reconnected to is
known.
The only semantic change created by this is if the guest with greatest ID
quits before we are able to reconnect it's ID is used anyway as the
greatest one as without this patch the greatest ID of a process we could
successfuly reconnect to would be used.
This patch adds support for external disk snapshots of inactive domains.
The snapshot is created by calling using qemu-img by calling:
qemu-img create -f format_of_snapshot -o
backing_file=/path/to/src,backing_fmt=format_of_backing_image
/path/to/snapshot
in case the backing image format is known or probing is allowed and
otherwise:
qemu-img create -f format_of_snapshot -o backing_file=/path/to/src
/path/to/snapshot
on each of the disks selected for snapshotting. This patch also modifies
the snapshot preparing function to support creating external snapshots
and to sanitize arguments. For now the user isn't able to mix external
and internal snapshots but this restriction might be lifted in the
future.
Some operations, APIs needs domain to be paused prior operation can be
performed, e.g. (managed-) save of a domain. The processors should be
restored in the end. However, if 'cont' fails for some reason, we log a
message but this is not sufficient as an event should be emitted as
well. Mgmt application can then decide what to do.
The code that was split out into the qemuDomainSaveMemory expands the
pointer containing the XML description of the domain that it gets from
higher layers. If the pointer changes the old one is invalid and the
upper layer function tries to free it causing an abort.
This patch changes the expansion of the original string to a new
allocation and copy of the contents.
qemu is sensitive to the order of arguments passed. Hence, if a
device requires a controller, the controller cmd string must
precede device cmd string. The same apply for controllers, when
for instance ccid controller requires usb controller. So
controllers create partial ordering in which they should be added
to qemu cmd line.
Some of the pre-snapshot check have restrictions wired in regarding
configuration options that influence taking of external checkpoints.
This patch removes restrictions that would inhibit taking of such a
snapshot.
This patch adds support to take external system checkpoints.
The functionality is layered on top of the previous disk-only snapshot
code. When the checkpoint is requested the domain memory is saved to the
memory image file using migration to file. (The user may specify to
take the memory image while the guest is live with the
VIR_DOMAIN_SNAPSHOT_CREATE_LIVE flag.)
The memory save image shares format with the image created by
virDomainSave() API.
Before now, libvirt supported only internal snapshots for active guests.
This patch renames this function to qemuDomainSnapshotCreateActiveInternal
to prepare the grounds for external active snapshots.
The new external system checkpoints will require an async job while the
snapshot is taken. This patch adds QEMU_ASYNC_JOB_SNAPSHOT to track this
job type.
The code that saves domain memory by migration to file can be reused
while doing external checkpoints of a machine. This patch extracts the
common code and places it in a separate function.
When pausing the guest while migration is running (to speed up
convergence) the virDomainSuspend API checks if the migration job is
active before entering the job. This could cause a possible race if the
virDomainSuspend is called while the job is active but ends before the
Suspend API enters the job (this would require that the migration is
aborted). This would cause a incorrect event to be emitted.
Both system checkpoint snapshots and disk snapshots were iterating
over all disks, doing a final sanity check before doing any work.
But since future patches will allow offline snapshots to be either
external or internal, it makes sense to share the pass over all
disks, and then relax restrictions in that pass as new modes are
implemented. Future patches can then handle external disks when
the domain is offline, then handle offline --disk-snapshot, and
finally, combine with migration to file to gain a complete external
system checkpoint snapshot of an active domain without using 'savevm'.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotDiskPrepare)
(qemuDomainSnapshotIsAllowed): Merge...
(qemuDomainSnapshotPrepare): ...into one function.
(qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Update caller.
Now that the XML supports listing internal snapshots, it is worth
always populating the <memory> and <disks> element to match.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (qemuDomainSnapshotCreateXML): Always
parse disk info and set memory info.
The libvirt coding standard is to use 'function(...args...)'
instead of 'function (...args...)'. A non-trivial number of
places did not follow this rule and are fixed in this patch.

BZ:https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=871273
when using virsh qemu-attach to attach an existing qemu process,
if it misses the -M option in qemu command line, libvirtd crashed
because the NULL value of def->os.machine in later use.
Example:
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name foo \
-cdrom /var/lib/libvirt/images/boot.img \
-monitor unix:/tmp/demo,server,nowait \
error: End of file while reading data: Input/output error
error: Failed to reconnect to the hypervisor
This patch tries to set default machine type if the value of
def->os.machine is still NULL after qemu command line parsing.
Per the code comment in qemuCapsInitQMPBasic() and commit 43e23c7, we
should only use QMP for capabilities probing starting with 1.2 and
newer. The old code had dead logic that probed on 1.0 and newer.

The string comparison logic was inverted and matched the first drive
that does *not* have the name we search for.

The QEMU -drive id= begins with libvirt's QEMU host drive prefix
("drive-"), which is stripped off in several places two convert between
host ("-drive") and guest ("-device") device names.
In the case of BlkIoTune it is unnecessary to strip the QEMU host drive
prefix because we operate on "info block"/"query-block" output that uses
host drive names.
Stripping the prefix incorrectly caused string comparisons to fail since
we were comparing the guest device name against the host device name.
