I ran 'make dist' in the directory left over from ./autobuild.sh
(which was configured for a mingw cross build); the resulting
tarball had more files than 'make dist' on a normal Linux build.
I traced it to the fact that we were distributing a generated
file, but only when configure said the end user had to generate
the file in the first place. In the process, I noticed that
we had some difference in symbol file names; I added a comment
explaining why the difference exists (after first trying to
normalize the names and hitting VPATH build failures).
* configure.ac (LIBVIRT_QEMU_SYMBOL_FILE): Add some comments.
* src/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): No need to ship a generated file;
particularly since which file is built depends on configure results.
The daemon-driver-{qemu,lxc} packages are only built if
%{with_driver_modules} is specified, so they do not need to
further test this condition. Likewise, the daemon package
is only built if %{with_libvirtd} is specified, so it does
not need to further test this condition.
* libvirt.spec.in (daemon-driver-qemu, daemon-driver-lxc):
Unconditionally require libvirt-daemon-driver-network.
(daemon): Unconditionally include lock-driver files.
There's no need to do lots of readlink() calls to canonicalize
a name if we're only going to use stat() on it, since stat()
already chases symlinks.
* src/util/virutil.c (virGetDeviceID): Let stat() do the symlink
chasing.
Pass stub driver name directly to pciDettachDevice and pciReAttachDevice to fit
for different libvirt drivers. For example, qemu driver prefers pci-stub, but
Xen prefers pciback.

Add an optional 'type' attribute to <target> element of serial port
device. There are two choices for its value, 'isa-serial' and
'usb-serial'. For backward compatibility, when attribute 'type' is
missing the 'isa-serial' will be chosen as before.
Libvirt XML sample
<serial type='pty'>
<target type='usb-serial' port='0'/>
<address type='usb' bus='0' port='1'/>
</serial>

qemu ${other_vm_args} \
-chardev pty,id=charserial0 \
-device usb-serial,chardev=charserial0,id=serial0,bus=usb.0,port=1
With the most recent patch from Claudio, I realized how many
indentation flaws we have in the libvirt.h.in file. Even though
they are harmless, it's still worth fixing them.

With current code, if user calls virDomainPMSuspendForDuration()
followed by virDomainDestroy(), the former API checks for qemu agent
presence, which will evaluate as true (if agent is configured). While
talking to qemu agent, the qemu driver is unlocked, so the latter API
starts executing. However, if machine dies meanwhile, libvirtd gets
EOF on the agent socket and qemuProcessHandleAgentEOF() is called. The
handler clears reference to qemu agent while the destroy API already
holding a reference to it. This leads to NULL dereferencing later in
the code. Therefore, the agent pointer should be set to NULL only if
we are the exclusive owner of it.
When building libvirt rpms on rhel5, I got the following error:
File must begin with "/": rm
File must begin with "/": -f
File must begin with "/": $RPM_BUILD_ROOT/etc/sysctl.d/libvirtd
Installed (but unpackaged) file(s) found:
/etc/sysctl.d/libvirtd
It is triggerd by the %files list of libvirt daemon:
%if 0%{?fedora} >= 14 || 0%{?rhel} >= 6
%config(noreplace) %{_prefix}/lib/sysctl.d/libvirtd.conf
%else
rm -f $RPM_BUILD_ROOT%{_prefix}/lib/sysctl.d/libvirtd.conf

After checking document of rpm spec file, I think it would be better
to move the file deleting line from %files list to %install script.
Bug introduced in commit a1fd56c.
While OOM can have knock-on effects that trash a system, generally
the first symptom is one of memory thrashing.
* src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c (qemuSetupCgroup): Reword slightly.
I did a build --without-libvirtd, then ran 'make dist'. The
resulting tarball was broken, with a complaint that make did not
know how to create libvirtd.service.in. I traced it to a use
of EXTRA_DIST inside a conditional.
* daemon/Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Hoist libvirtd.service.in
outside of WITH_LIBVIRTD conditional.
when we has no host's src mapped to container.
there is no .oldroot dir,so libvirt lxc will fail

Perform all the appropriate plumbing.
When qemu/KVM VMs are paused manually through a monitor not-owned by libvirt,
libvirt will think of them as "paused" event after they are resumed and
effectively running. With this patch the discrepancy goes away.
This is meant to address bug 892791.

Libvirt's HTML documentation is not as easy to the eyes as it could
be since long text has no visual breaks.
Take advantage of the formatting in documentation comments and wrap
each part separated by two consecutive \n into a HTML <p> element.
Coverity determined that 'emulator' could no longer be set and determined the
code was dead. Looking through the history, I discovered commit-id ed769e18
removed code originally added by commit-id 9237e955 and further modified by
commit-id 6a7e7c4f.
In a non-systemd environment the post and preun scripts of libvirt-client
fail, since the required files are in libvirt-daemon. Moved them to client.
Doing that I noticed %{_unitdir}/libvirt-guests.service was contained in
both libvirt-client and libvirt-daemon, which I don't think was intended.
Removed the extra copy from daemon.

gcc 4.1.2 on RHEL 5 warned:
conf/network_conf.c:3136: warning: 'foundIdx' may be used uninitialized in this function
The warning is spurious, but initializing the variable doesn't hurt.

unused variable warning.
POSIX does not guarantee whether uid_t and gid_t are signed or
unsigned, nor does it guarantee whether they are smaller, same
size, or larger than int (or even the same size as one another).
Therefore, it is possible to have platforms where '(uid_t)-1==-1'
is false or where 'uid = gid = -1' sets uid to the wrong value,
thanks to integer promotion rules. The only portable way to use
the placeholder value of these two types is to always use a cast.
Thankfully, the issue is mostly theoretical - sanlock only
compiles on Linux for now, and on Linux, these types do not
suffer from strange promotion problems.
* src/locking/lock_driver_sanlock.c
(virLockManagerSanlockSetupLockspace, virLockManagerSanlockInit)
(virLockManagerSanlockCreateLease): Cast -1 to proper type before
comparing with uid_t or gid_t.
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

The SCLP console is the native console type for s390 and is preferred
over the virtio console as it doesn't require special drivers and
is more efficient. Recent versions of QEMU come with SCLP support
which is hereby enabled.
The new target types 'sclp' and 'sclplm' can be used to specify a
SCLP console. Adding documentation, domain schema and XML processing

Change calling sequence to only call xenUnifiedDomainSetVcpusFlags() when

Just return -1 if dom is NULL.
The code for setting up a private /dev/pts for the containers
is also responsible for making the LXC controller have a
private mount namespace. Unfortunately the /dev/pts code is
not run if launching a container without a custom root. This
causes the LXC FUSE mount to leak into the host FS.
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
check to see if the PID is still alive.

The current code is initializing capabilities before setting
directory permissions. Thus the QEMU binaries being run may

Commit dfa1e1dd removed libxenctrl from LIBXL_LIBS, but the libxl
driver uses a symbol from this library. Explicitly link with
libxenctrl instead of relying on the build system to support
implicit DSO linking.

even though libvirt attempts to set fs.aio-max-nr via sysctl,
the file was installed with the wrong name and gets ignored by
sysctl. Furthermore, 'man systcl.d' recommends that packages
install into hard-coded /usr/lib/sysctl.d (even when libdir is
/usr/lib64), so that sysadmins can use /etc/sysctl.d for overrides.
