A Linux software bridge will assume the MAC address of the enslaved
interface with the numerically lowest MAC addr. When the bridge
changes MAC address there is a period of network blackout, so a
change should be avoided. The kernel gives TAP devices a completely
random MAC address. Occassionally the random TAP device MAC is lower
than that of the physical interface (eth0, eth1etc) that is enslaved,
causing the bridge to change its MAC.
This change sets an explicit MAC address for all TAP devices created
using the configured MAC from the XML, but with the high byte set
to 0xFE. This should ensure TAP device MACs are higher than any
physical interface MAC.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/uml/uml_conf.c: Pass in a MAC addr
for the TAP device with high byte set to 0xFE
* src/util/bridge.c, src/util/bridge.h: Set a MAC when creating
the TAP device to override random MAC
The PCI slot 1 must be reserved at all times, since PIIX3 is
always present, even if no IDE device is in use for guest disks
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Always reserve slot 1 for PIIX3
virFileOperation previously returned 0 on success, or the value of
errno on failure. Although there are other functions in libvirt that
use this convention, the preferred (and more common) convention is to
return 0 on success and -errno (or simply -1 in some cases) on
failure. This way the check for failure is always (ret < 0).
* src/util/util.c - change virFileOperation and virFileOperationNoFork to
return -errno on failure.
* src/storage/storage_backend.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
- change the hook functions passed to virFileOperation to return
-errno on failure.
To try and ensure that people upgrading from old QEMU get guests
with the same PCI device ordering, change the way we assign addrs
to match QEMU's default order. This should make Windows less
annoyed.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Follow QEMU's default PCI ordering
logic when assigning addresses
* tests/*.args: Update for changed PCI addresses
To allow compatibility with older QEMU PCI device slot assignment
it is necessary to explicitly track the balloon device in the
XML. This introduces a new device
<memballoon model='virtio|xen'/>
It can also have a PCI address, auto-assigned if necessary.
The memballoon will be automatically added to all Xen and QEMU
guests by default.
* docs/schemas/domain.rng: Add <memballoon> element
* src/conf/domain_conf.c, src/conf/domain_conf.h: parsing
and formatting for memballoon device. Always add a memory
balloon device to Xen/QEMU if none exists in XML
* src/libvirt_private.syms: Export memballoon model APIs
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_conf.h: Honour the
PCI device address in memory balloon device
* tests/*: Update to test new functionality
The first VGA and IDE devices need to have fixed PCI address
reservations. Currently this is handled inline with the other
non-primary VGA/IDE devices. The fixed virtio balloon device
at slot 3, ensures auto-assignment skips the slots 1/2. The
virtio address will shortly become configurable though. This
means the reservation of fixed slots needs to be done upfront
to ensure that they don't get re-used for other devices.
This is more or less reverting the previous changeset:

Fix restore of QEMU guests with PCI device reservation
The difference is that this time, instead of unconditionally
reserving the address, we only reserve the address if it was
initially type=none. Addresses of type=pci were handled
earlier in process by qemuDomainPCIAddressSetCreate(). This
ensures restore step doesn't have problems
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Reserve first VGA + IDE address
upfront
The VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT refers to an API which is not implemented.
There is a separate VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED for XML config
options that are not available with the current hypervisor.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c, src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove
many VIR_ERR_NO_SUPPORT replace with VIR_ERR_CONFIG_UNSUPPORTED
If you try to execute two concurrent migrations p2p
from A->B and B->A, the two libvirtd's will deadlock
trying to perform the migrations. The reason for this is
that in p2p migration, the libvirtd's are responsible for
making the RPC Prepare, Migrate, and Finish calls. However,
they are currently holding the driver lock while doing so,
which basically guarantees deadlock in this scenario.
This patch fixes the situation by adding
qemuDomainObjEnterRemoteWithDriver and
qemuDomainObjExitRemoteWithDriver helper methods. The Enter
take an additional object reference, then drops both the
domain object lock and the driver lock. The Exit takes
both the driver and domain object lock, then drops the
reference. Adding calls to these Enter and Exit helpers
around remote calls in the various migration methods
seems to fix the problem for me in testing.
This should make the situation safe. The additional domain
object reference ensures that the domain object won't disappear
while this operation is happening. The BeginJob that is called
inside of qemudDomainMigratePerform ensures that we can't execute a
second migrate (or shutdown, or save, etc) job while the
migration is active. Finally, the additional check on the state
of the vm after we reacquire the locks ensures that we can't
be surprised by an external event (domain crash, etc).

In case qemu supports -nodefconfig, libvirt adds uses it when launching

we need to use it when probing for available models.

Some, but not all, codepaths in the qemuMonitorOpen() method

the virDomainObjPtr if qemuMonitorOpen() fails

In the current libvirt PCI code, there is no checking whether
a PCI device is in use by a guest when doing node device
detach or reattach. This causes problems when a device is
assigned to a guest, and the administrator starts issuing
nodedevice commands. Make it so that we check the list
of active devices when trying to detach/reattach, and only
allow the operation if the device is not assigned to a guest.

This code was just recently added (by me) and didn't account for the
fact that stdin_path is sometimes NULL. If it's NULL, and
SetSecurityAllLabel fails, a segfault would result.
When the saved domain image is on an NFS share, at least some part of
domainSetSecurityAllLabel will fail (for example, selinux labels can't
be modified). To allow domain restore to still work in this case, just
ignore the errors.
Also restore the label to its original value after qemu is finished
with the file.
Prior to this patch, qemu domain restore did not function properly if
selinux was set to enforce.
If an active migration operation fails, or is cancelled by the
admin, the QEMU on the destination is shutdown and the one on
the source continues running. It is important in shutting down
the QEMU on the destination, the security drivers don't reset
the file labelling/permissions.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Don't reset labelling/permissions
on migration abort
The patches for shared storage migration were not correctly written
for json mode. Thus the 'blk' and 'inc' parameters were never being
set. In addition they didn't set the QEMU_MONITOR_MIGRATE_BACKGROUND
so migration was synchronous. Due to multiple bugs in QEMU's JSON
impl this wasn't noticed because it treated the sync migration requst
as asynchronous anyway. Finally 'background' parameter was converted
to take arbitrary flags but not renamed, and not all uses were changed
to unsigned int.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Set QEMU_MONITOR_MIGRATE_BACKGROUND in
doNativeMigrate
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.c: Process QEMU_MONITOR_MIGRATE_NON_SHARED_DISK
and QEMU_MONITOR_MIGRATE_NON_SHARED_INC flags
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_json.h, src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.c,
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_text.h: change 'int background' to
'unsigned int flags' in migration APIs. Add logging of flags

During incoming migration the QEMU monitor is not able to be
used. The incoming migration code did not keep hold of the
job lock because migration is split across multiple API calls.
This meant that further monitor commands on the guest would
hang until migration finished with no timeout.
In this change the qemuDomainMigratePrepare method sets the
job flag just before it returns. The qemuDomainMigrateFinish
method checks for this job flag & clears it once done. This
prevents any use of the monitor between prepare+finish steps.
The qemuDomainGetJobInfo method is also updated to refresh
the job elapsed time. This means that virsh domjobinfo can
return time data during incoming migration
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Keep a job active during incoming
migration. Refresh job elapsed time when returning job info
When configuring serial, parallel, console or channel devices
with a file, dev or pipe backend type, it is necessary to label
the file path in the security drivers. For char devices of type
file, it is neccessary to pre-create (touch) the file if it does
not already exist since QEMU won't be allowed todo so itself.
dev/pipe configs already require the admin to pre-create before
starting the guest.
* src/qemu/qemu_security_dac.c: set file ownership for character
devices
* src/security/security_selinux.c: Set file labeling for character
devices
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Add character devices to cgroup ACL
We previously assumed that if the -device option existed in qemu, that
-nodefconfig would also exist. It turns out that isn't the case, as
demonstrated by qemu-kvm-0.12.3 in Fedora 13.
*/src/qemu/qemu_conf.[hc] - add a new QEMUD_CMD_FLAG, set it via the
help output, and check it before adding
-nodefconfig to the qemu commandline.
The domain XML parsing code autogenerates disk address and
controller elements when they are not explicitly specified.
The code assumes a narrow SCSI bus (7 units per bus). ESX
uses a wide SCSI bus (16 units per bus).
This is a step towards controller support for the ESX driver.
We already use the '-nodefaults' command line arg with QEMU to stop
it adding any default devices to guests. Unfortunately, QEMU will
load global config files from /etc/qemu that may also add default
devices. These aren't blocked by '-nodefaults', so we need to also
add the '-nodefconfig' arg to prevent that.
Unfortunately these global config files are also used to define
custom CPU models. So in blocking global hardware device addition
we also block definitions of new CPU models. Libvirt doesn't know
about these custom CPU models though, so it would never make use
of them anyway. Thus blocking them via -nodefconfig isn't a show
stopping problem. We would need to expand libvirt's own CPU model
XML database to support these instead.
* src/qemu/qemu_conf.c: Add '-nodefconfig' if available
* tests/qemuxml2argvdata/: Add '-nodefconfig' to all data files which
have '-nodefaults' present
The current code pattern requires that callers of qemuMonitorClose
check for the return value == 0, and if so, set priv->mon = NULL
and release the reference held on the associated virDomainObjPtr
The change d84bb6d6a3bd2fdd530184cc9743249ebddbee71 violated that
requirement, meaning that priv->mon never gets set to NULL, and
a reference count is leaked on virDomainObjPtr.
This design was a bad one, so remove the need to check the return
valueof qemuMonitorClose(). Instead allow registration of a
callback that's invoked just when the last reference on qemuMonitorPtr
is released.
Finally there was a potential reference leak in qemuConnectMonitor
in the failure path.
* src/qemu/qemu_monitor.c, src/qemu/qemu_monitor.h: Add a destroy
callback invoked from qemuMonitorFree
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Use the destroy callback to release the
reference on virDomainObjPtr when the monitor is freed. Fix other
potential reference count leak in connecting to monitor
Before issuing monitor commands it is neccessary to check whether
the guest is still running. Most places use virDomainIsActive()
correctly, but a few relied on 'priv->mon != NULL'. In theory
these should be equivalent, but the release of the last reference
count on priv->mon can be delayed a small amount of time until
the event handler is finally deregistered. A further ref counting
bug also means that priv->mon might be never released. In such a
case, code could mistakenly issue a monitor command and wait for
a response that will never arrive, effectively leaving the QEMU
driver waiting on virCondWait() forever..
To protect against these possibilities, make sure all code uses
virDomainIsActive(), not 'priv->mon != NULL'
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Replace 'priv->mon != NULL' with
calls to 'priv->mon != NULL'()
Following Daniel Berrange's multiple helpful suggestions for improving
this patch and introducing another driver interface, I now wrote the
below patch where the nwfilter driver registers the functions to
instantiate and teardown the nwfilters with a function in
conf/domain_nwfilter.c called virDomainConfNWFilterRegister. Previous
helper functions that were called from qemu_driver.c and qemu_conf.c
were move into conf/domain_nwfilter.h with slight renaming done for
consistency. Those functions now call the function expored by
domain_nwfilter.c, which in turn call the functions of the new driver
interface, if available.
If VM startup fails early enough (can't find a referenced USB device),
libvirtd will crash trying to clear the VNC port bit, since port = 0,
which overflows us out of the bitmap bounds.
Fix this by being more defensive in the bitmap operations, and only
clearing a previously set VNC port.
