If the qemu binary supports "-no-kvm" and/or "-no-kqemu", they should
always be added for plain "qemu" domains. Previously, we omitted them
whenever the host and guest architectures implied that they would be
disabled automatically, but that logic was flawed in some cases
(such as i686 and x86_64).
* src/qemu_conf.c: fix the conditions for adding "-no-kvm" and/or "-no-kqemu"
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h include/libvirt/libvirt.h.in: adds the new
flag VIR_MEMORY_PHYSICAL for virDomainMemoryPeek
* src/libvirt.c: update the front-end checking
* src/qemu_driver.c: extend the QEmu driver
* src/datatypes.c: fix a lock problem on error handling, as the
error report takes the lock, it must be released before, fixes
the problem but just for Interface objects
qemu network devices are hot-unplugged in two stages - first the PCI NIC
is removed using 'pci_del <pci_addr>' and then the backend is removed
using 'host_net_remove <vlan> <name>'.
In order to perform these operations we need to have retained the
PCI address, backend name and vlan number.
* src/qemu_driver.c: add qemudDomainDetachNetDevice()
When we pci_add a NIC, we need to retain the PCI address assigned by
qemu for using during detach.
* src/qemu_driver.c: use qemudParsePciAddReply() to pull the PCI
address from the pci_add reply
* src/domain_conf.c: handle storing and parsing the PCI address in the
domain state XML file
The current code for parsing pci_add replies ignores the the domain and
bus numbers. Re-write the code to rectify that.
Also, since pci_add is used for NIC hotplug as well ask disk hotplug,
re-factor the code into a separate function.
* src/qemu_driver.c: add qemudParsePciAddReply() function which can
handle parsing domain and bus numbers
If we fail to pci_add a NIC, we should remove the network backend and
leave things the way we found them. To do that, we pre-allocate a
host_net_remove monitor command and issue that if the pci_add fails.
If the remove fails, we just log a warning.
We can only do this if we have a name for the network backend and
we know the vlan number its associated with.
* src/qemu_driver.c: host_net_remove the network backend if the
pci_add fails
Implement basic NIC hotplug support using the 'host_net_add' and
'pci_add' qemu monitor commands.
For now, we don't support 'bridge' or 'network' types.
Also, if pci_add fails, we currently fail to remove the backend
which we added.
Finally, NIC hot-unplug support is missing.
* src/qemu_driver.c: add qemudDomainAttachNetDevice()
* src/qemu_conf.[ch]: export qemuBuildNicStr(), qemuBuildHostNetStr()
and qemuAssignNames()
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export virDomainNetTypeToString()
qemudDomainChangeEjectableMedia() currently extracts the qemu command
line flags, but other device attaching code might need it, so move
the qemudExtractVersionInfo() call up a frame.
* src/qemu_driver.c: move the qemudExtractVersionInfo() call from
qemudDomainChangeEjectableMedia() to qemudDomainAttachDevice()
Currently, an interface's vlan number corresponds to its index in
the table of network interfaces. That is no longer true when we
allow devices to be removed.
To fix this, we store the vlan number in the domain's state XML
so that it survives libvirtd restarts.
* src/domain_conf.h: add vlan number to virDomainNetDef
* src/domain_conf.c: store it in XML as <state vlan='N'/>, defaulting
to -1 if this is state saved by a previous version of libvirt
* src/qemu_conf.c: assign vlan numbers before starting qemu
The qemu driver needs to assign and keep track of identifiers for
network devices so that it can remove them. We need to keep this state
across libvirtd restarts, but it's not configuration that needs to
be kept across guest restarts.
* src/domain_conf.c: parse and format <state nic="foo" hostnet="bar"/>
We need these so that we can remove the devices via the monitor.
* src/domain_conf.h: add nic_name and hostnet_name to virDomainNetDef
* src/domain_conf.c: free nic_name and hostnet_name
* src/qemu_conf.c: add qemuAssignNetNames(), use it if qemu has
support for the param and pass the names on the command line
* tests/qemuxml2argv*: add a test for this
Add QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_NET_NAME to indicate that '-net ...,name=foo' is
supported and QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_HOST_NET_ADD to indicate that the
'host_net_add' monitor command is available.
Set both these flags if the qemu version is greater than 0.10.0.
Checking via the '-help' output would not work for the monitor command
and even for the command line arg, it would be quite fragile.
* src/qemu_conf.h: add new flags as aliases of QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_0_10
* src/qemu_conf.c: set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_0_10 for versions >= 0.10.0
* tests/qemuhelptest.c: set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_0_10 for the appropriate
qemu versions
Re-factor this code so that it can be used for NIC hotplug
too. The awkward prefix and type_sep arguments are needed to
allow us to do "host_net_add tap vlan=..."
* src/qemu_conf.c: factor the net backend string formatting
code into its own function
Re-factor this code so that it can be used for NIC hotplug
too. The awkward arguments are needed to allow use to do
"pci_add auto nic macaddr=..."
* src/qemu_conf.c: factor the nic string formatting code into
its own function
When we hot-plug a disk device into a qemu guest, we need to retain its
PCI address so that it can be removed again later. Currently, we do
retain the slot number, but not across libvirtd restarts.
Add <state devaddr="xxxx:xx:xx"/> to the disk device XML config when the
VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_STATUS flag is used. We still don't parse the
domain and bus number, but the format allows us to do that in future.
* src/domain_conf.h: replace slotnum with pci_addr struct, add helper
for testing whether the address is valid
* src/domain_conf.c: handle formatting and parsing the address
* src/qemu_driver.c: store the parsed slot number as a full PCI address,
and use this address with the pci_del monitor command
* src/vbox/vbox_tmpl.c: we're debug printing slotnum here even though
it can never be set, just delete it
We need to store things like device names and PCI slot numbers in the
qemu domain state file so that we don't lose that information on
libvirtd restart. Add a flag to indicate that this information should
be parsed or formatted.
Make bit 16 and above of the flags bitmask for internal use only and
consume the first bit for this new status flag.
* include/libvirt/libvirt.h: add VIR_DOMAIN_XML_FLAGS_MASK
* src/libvirt.c: reject private flags in virDomainGetXMLDesc()
* src/domain_conf.h: add VIR_DOMAIN_XML_INTERNAL_STATUS
* src/domain_conf.c: pass the flag from virDomainObjParseXML() and
virDomainSaveStatus
* src/libvirt.c: activate the interface drivers
* po/POTFILES.in: add the netcf driver as a source of localization strings
* src/interface_driver.c: NETCF_ENOMEM -> VIR_ERR_NO_MEMORY mapping was
breaking syntax checking
* src/interface_driver.c src/interface_driver.h: the new driver
* src/Makefile.am qemud/Makefile.am qemud/qemud.c: hook the new driver
in the build system and get ti activated by the daemon
* src/libvirt_private.syms: export needed symbols internally
MAC address of a particular interface may change over time, and the
reduced virInterface object (which contains just name and mac) needs
to reflect these changes. Since we can't modify the mac address of an
existing virInterface (some other thread may currently be using it) we
just create a new virInterface, and let the old one die a dignified
death when its refct goes to 0.
* src/datatypes.c: fix the matching and lifetime of virInterface object
accordingly
* include/libvirt/virterror.h src/virterror.c: if a driver's
virInterfaceLookupByMACString() function finds more than one interface
with the desired MAC Address, this new error is raised.
* libvirt.spec.in: make a client rpm with shared libs, client binaries
and resources needed by those, and a small number of fixes and
cleanups in the spec file.
* docs/Makefile.am ($(top_builddir)/NEWS): Adjust rule to filter
out any trailing blank lines when generating this file.
* NEWS: Regenerate, so that it contains entries for 0.6.5.
* src/virsh.c: add a number of interface related commands:
iface-list, iface-name, iface-mac, iface-dumpxml, iface-define,
iface-undefine, iface-edit, iface-start and iface-destroy
Unlike the pty monitor (which we know exists since we scrape its path from
stdout), we have no way of knowing that the unix monitor socket should exist/
be initialized. As a result, some of my KVM guests randomly fail to start on
F10 host.
Try to open the unix socket in a 3 second timeout loop. Ignore EACCES (path
does not exist if a first time run) and ECONNREFUSED (leftover socket from
a previous run hasn't been removed yet). Fixes things for me.
Have storage building functions be definitions of
virStorageBackendBuildVolFrom: we will need to do this in the future anyways
if we ever support the flags attribute.
Break out separate functions for
- Determining the supported '*-img' tool,
- The tool's associated create function,
- Desired function for cloning (CreateXMLFrom).
This will be eventually used to unify cloning across all backends.
