An upcoming patch has a use for a tap device to be created that
doesn't need to be actually put into the "up" state, and keeping it
"down" keeps the output of ifconfig from being unnecessarily cluttered
(ifconfig won't show down interfaces unless you add "-a").
bridge.[ch]: add "up" as an arg to brAddTap()
uml_conf.c, qemu_command.c: add "up" (set to "true") to brAddTap() call.
This is in response to:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=629662
Explanation
qemu's virtio-net-pci driver allows setting the algorithm used for tx
packets to either "bh" or "timer". This is done by adding ",tx=bh" or
",tx=timer" to the "-device virtio-net-pci" commandline option.
'bh' stands for 'bottom half'; when this is set, packet tx is all done
in an iothread in the bottom half of the driver. (In libvirt, this
option is called the more descriptive "iothread".)
'timer' means that tx work is done in qemu, and if there is more tx
data than can be sent at the present time, a timer is set before qemu
moves on to do other things; when the timer fires, another attempt is
made to send more data. (libvirt retains the name "timer" for this
option.)
The resulting difference, according to the qemu developer who added
the option is:
bh makes tx more asynchronous and reduces latency, but potentially
causes more processor bandwidth contention since the cpu doing the
tx isn't necessarily the cpu where the guest generated the
packets.
Solution
This patch provides a libvirt domain xml knob to change the option on
the qemu commandline, by adding a new attribute "txmode" to the
<driver> element that can be placed inside any <interface> element in
a domain definition. It's use would be something like this:
<interface ...>
...
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver txmode='iothread'/>
...
</interface>
I chose to put this setting as an attribute to <driver> rather than as
a sub-element to <tune> because it is specific to the virtio-net
driver, not something that is generally usable by all network drivers.
(note that this is the same placement as the "driver name=..."
attribute used to choose kernel vs. userland backend for the
virtio-net driver.)
Actually adding the tx=xxx option to the qemu commandline is only done
if the version of qemu being used advertises it in the output of
qemu -device virtio-net-pci,?
If a particular txmode is requested in the XML, and the option isn't
listed in that help output, an UNSUPPORTED_CONFIG error is logged, and
the domain fails to start.
When the <driver> element (and its "name" attribute) was added to the
domain XML's interface element, a "backend" enum was simply added to
the toplevel of the virDomainNetDef struct.
Ignoring the naming inconsistency ("name" vs. "backend"), this is fine
when there's only a single item contained in the driver element of the
XML, but doesn't scale well as we add more attributes that apply to
the backend of the virtio-net driver, or add attributes applicable to
other drivers.
This patch changes virDomainNetDef in two ways:
1) Rename the item in the struct from "backend" to "name", so that
it's the same in the XML and in the struct, hopefully avoiding
confusion for someone unfamiliar with the function of the
attribute.
2) Create a "driver" union within virDomainNetDef, and a "virtio"
struct in that struct, which contains the "name" enum value.
3) Move around the virDomainNetParse and virDomainNetFormat functions
to allow for simple plugin of new attributes without disturbing
existing code. (you'll note that this results in a seemingly
redundant if() in the format function, but that will no longer be
the case as soon as a 2nd attribute is added).
In the future, new attributes for the virtio driver backend can be
added to the "virtio" struct, and any other network device backend that
needs an attribute will have its own struct added to the "driver"
union.
The introduction of the v3 migration protocol, along with
support for migration cookies, will significantly expand
the size of the migration code. Move it all to a separate
file to make it more manageable
The functions are not moved 100%. The API entry points
remain in the main QEMU driver, but once the public
virDomainPtr is resolved to the internal virDomainObjPtr,
all following code is moved.
This will allow the new v3 API entry points to call into the
same shared internal migration functions
* src/qemu/qemu_domain.c, src/qemu/qemu_domain.h: Add
qemuDomainFormatXML helper method
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Remove all migration code
* src/qemu/qemu_migration.c, src/qemu/qemu_migration.h: Add

Move the qemudStartVMDaemon and qemudShutdownVMDaemon
methods into a separate file, renaming them to
qemuProcessStart, qemuProcessStop. All helper methods
called by these are also moved & renamed to match

"qemudDomainSaveFlag" goto wrong label "endjob", which will cause
error when security manager trying to restore label (regression).
As it's more reasonable to check if vm is shutoff immediately, and
return right away if it is, remove the checking in "qemudDomainSaveFlag",
and add checking in "qemudDomainSave".
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c
The code expected that host CPU architecture matches the architecture on
which libvirt runs. This is normally true but not in tests, where host
CPU is faked to produce consistent results.
The processWatchdogEvent fix is real, although it can only trigger
on OOM, since bad things happen if doCoreDump is called with a NULL
pathname argument. The other fixes silence clang, but aren't a real
bug because virReportErrorHelper tolerates a NULL format string even
though *printf does not.
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c (processWatchdogEvent): Exit on OOM.

Commit 9962e406c664ed5521f5aca500c860a331cb3979 introduced a
problem where if the VM failed to startup, it would not be
correctly cleaned up. Amongst other things the SELinux
security label would not be removed, which prevents the VM
from ever starting again.
The virDomainIsActive() check at the start of qemudShutdownVMDaemon
checks for vm->def->id not being -1. By moving the assignment of the
VM id to the start of qemudStartVMDaemon, we can ensure cleanup will
occur on failure
* src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Move initialization of 'vm->def->id'

Suspending a VM which contains shell meta characters doesn't work with

sh: -c: line 0: syntax error near unexpected token `doch'
sh: -c: line 0: `cat | { dd bs=4096 seek=1 if=/dev/null && dd bs=1048576; }
Although target="andreas_231-ne doch nicht" contains shell meta
characters (here: blanks), they are not properly escaped by
src/qemu/qemu_monitor_{json,text}.c#qemuMonitor{JSON,Text}MigrateToFile()
First, the filename needs to be properly escaped for the shell, than
this command line has to be properly escaped for qemu again.
For this to work, remove the old qemuMonitorEscapeArg() wrapper, rename
qemuMonitorEscape() to it removing the handling for shell=TRUE, and
implement a new qemuMonitorEscapeShell() returning strings using single
quotes.
Using double quotes or escaping special shell characters with backslashes
would also be possible, but the set of special characters heavily
depends on the concrete shell (dsh, bash, zsh) and its setting (history
expansion, interactive use, ...)

QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS should be set in the function
qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo()
The flag QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS is used in the function
qemuBuildDeviceAddressStr(). All callers get qemuCmdFlags
by the function qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo() except that
testCompareXMLToArgvFiles() in qemuxml2argvtest.c.
So we should set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS in the function
qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo() instead of qemuBuildCommandLine()
because the function qemuBuildCommandLine() does not be called
when we attach a pci device.
tests: set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS in testCompareXMLToArgvFiles()
set QEMUD_CMD_FLAG_PCI_MULTIBUS before calling qemuBuildCommandLine()
as the flags is not set by qemuCapsExtractVersionInfo().

Currently users who want to use virDomainQemuMonitorCommand() API or
it's virsh equivalent has to use the same protocol as libvirt uses for
communication to qemu. Since the protocol is QMP with current qemu and
HMP much more usable for humans, one ends up typing something like the
following:
virsh qemu-monitor-command DOM \
'{"execute":"human-monitor-command","arguments":{"command-line":"info kvm"}}'
which is not a very convenient way of debugging qemu.
This patch introduces --hmp option to qemu-monitor-command, which says
that the provided command is in HMP. If libvirt uses QMP to talk with
qemu, the command will automatically be converted into QMP. So the
example above is simplified to just
virsh qemu-monitor-command --hmp DOM "info kvm"
Also the result is converted from
{"return":"kvm support: enabled\r\n"}
to just plain HMP:
kvm support: enabled
If libvirt talks to qemu in HMP, --hmp flag is obviously a noop.

Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. use gdb to debug libvirtd, and set breakpoint in the function
qemuConnectMonitor()
2. start a vm, and the libvirtd will be stopped in qemuConnectMonitor()
3. kill -STOP $(cat /var/run/libvirt/qemu/<domain>.pid)
4. continue to run libvirtd in gdb, and libvirtd will be blocked in the
function qemuMonitorSetCapabilities()
5. kill -9 $(cat /var/run/libvirt/qemu/<domain>.pid)
Here is log of the qemu:

2011-01-27 09:41:26.401: shutting down
=========
The vm is shut down twice. I do not know whether this behavior has
side effect, but I think we should shutdown the vm only once.
Depending if the qemu binary supports multiple pci-busses, the device
options will contain "bus=pci" or "bus=pci.0".
Only x86_64 and i686 seem to have support for multiple PCI-busses. When

Use it in all places where a memory or storage request size is converted
to a larger granularity. This avoids requesting too small memory or storage
sizes that could result from the truncation done by a simple division.
This extends the round up fix in 6002e0406c338668ea0ecbfeb6c1ef20a8b67efe
to the whole codebase.
Instead of reporting errors for odd values in the VMX code round them up.
Update the QEMU Argv tests accordingly as the original memory size 219200
isn't a even multiple of 1024 and is rounded up to 215 megabyte now. Change
it to 219100 and 219136. Use two different values intentionally to make
sure that rounding up works.
Update virsh.pod accordingly, as rounding down and rejecting are replaced

Steps to reproduce this bug:
1. service libvirtd start
2. virsh start <domain>
3. kill -STOP $(cat /var/run/libvirt/qemu/<domain>.pid)
4. service libvirtd restart
5. kill -9 $(cat /var/run/libvirt/qemu/<domain>.pid)
Then libvirtd will core dump or be in deadlock state.
Make sure that json is built into libvirt and the version
of qemu is newer than 0.13.0.
The reason of libvirtd cores dump is that:
We add vm->refs when we alloc the memory, and decrease it
in the function qemuHandleMonitorEOF() in other thread.
We add vm->refs in the function qemuConnectMonitor() and
decrease it when the vm is inactive.
The libvirtd will block in the function qemuMonitorSetCapabilities()
because the vm is stopped by signal SIGSTOP. Now the vm->refs is 2.
Then we kill the vm by signal SIGKILL. The function
qemuMonitorSetCapabilities() failed, and then we will decrease vm->refs
in the function qemuMonitorClose().
In another thread, mon->fd is broken and the function
qemuHandleMonitorEOF() is called.
If qemuHandleMonitorEOF() decreases vm->refs before qemuConnectMonitor()
returns, vm->refs will be decrease to 0 and the memory is freed.
We will call qemudShutdownVMDaemon() as qemuConnectMonitor() failed.
The memory has been freed, so qemudShutdownVMDaemon() is too dangerous.
We will reference NULL pointer in the function virDomainConfVMNWFilterTeardown():
=============
void
virDomainConfVMNWFilterTeardown(virDomainObjPtr vm) {
int i;
if (nwfilterDriver != NULL) {
for (i = 0; i < vm->def->nnets; i++)
virDomainConfNWFilterTeardown(vm->def->nets[i]);
}
}
============
vm->def->nnets is not 0 but vm->def->nets is NULL(We don't set vm->def->nnets
to 0 when we free vm).
We should add an extra reference of vm to avoid vm to be deleted if
qemuConnectMonitor() failed.

If a guest image is saved in compressed format, and the restore fails
in some way after the intermediate process used to uncompress the
image has been started, but before qemu has been started to hook up to
the uncompressor, libvirt will endlessly wait for the uncompressor to
finish, but it never will because it's still waiting to have something
hooked up to drain its output.
The solution is to close the pipes on both sides of the uncompressor,
then send a SIGTERM before calling waitpid on it (only if the restore
has failed, of course).
This patch is a partial resolution to the following bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=667756
(to complete the fix, an updated selinux-policy package is required,
to add the policy that allows libvirt to set the context of a fifo,
which was previously not allowed).
Explanation : When an incoming migration is over a pipe (for example,
if the image was compressed and is being fed through gzip, or was on a
root-squash nfs server, so needed to be opened by a child process
running as a different uid), qemu cannot read it unless the selinux
context label for the pipe has been set properly.
The solution is to check the fd used as the source of the migration
just before passing it to qemu; if it's a fifo (implying that it's a
pipe), we call the newly added virSecurityManagerSetFDLabel() function
to set the context properly.
The problem was introduced by commit 4303c91, which removed the checking
of domain state, this patch is to fix it.
Otherwise, improper error will be thrown, e.g.
error: Failed to save domain rhel6 state
error: cannot resolve symlink /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/save/rhel6.save: No such
file or directory
In QEMU, the card itself is a PCI device, but it requires a codec
(either -device hda-output or -device hda-duplex) to actually output
sound. Specifying <sound model='ich6'/> gives us -device intel-hda
-device hda-duplex I think it's important that a simple <sound model='ich6'/>
sets up a useful codec, to have consistent behavior with all other sound cards.
This is basically Dan's proposal of
<sound model='ich6'>
<codec type='output' slot='0'/>
<codec type='duplex' slot='3'/>
</sound>
without the codec bits implemented.
The important thing is to keep a consistent API here, we don't want some
<sound> devs require tweaking codecs but not others. Steps I see to
accomplishing this:
- every <sound> device has a <codec type='default'/> (unless codecs are
manually specified)
- <codec type='none'/> is required to specify 'no codecs'
- new audio settings like mic=on|off could then be exposed in
<sound> or <codec> in a consistent manner for all sound models
v2:
Use model='ich6'
v3:
Use feature detection, from eblake
Set codec id, bus, and cad values
v4:
intel-hda isn't supported if -device isn't available
