Most likely this problem arose because of the patch I pushed
in gnulib commit e07d7c40f3ca5ec410cf5aa6fa03cfe51e712039.
Previously, gnulib required timeval's tv_sec to be
the same size as time_t.  But now, it requires only that
tv_sec be big enough to hold a time_t.

This patch was needed for Emacs.  Without the patch, gnulib
replaced struct timeval on OpenBSD, and this messed up
utimens.c, and Emacs wouldn't build.

Alternatively, gnulib could substitute its own struct timeval
for the system's, wrapping every struct timeval-using function
(gettimeofday, futimesat, futimes, lutimes, etc.  That'd be
more work, though.  And it would introduce some performance
issues with gettimeofday, which is supposed to be fast.

I've been trying to get away from using struct timeval,
and to use the higher-resolution struct timespec instead,
so messing with these obsolescent interfaces has been
lower priority for me.  But if someone wants to take the
more-ambitious approach that'd be fine, I expect.

For this particular case, though, how about if we avoid
the problem entirely?  libvirt doesn't need to use struct
timeval here at all.  It makes libvirt smaller and probably
faster, and it ports to OpenBSD without messing with gnulib.

3044433f29 Fix issue of PF brought down if VF is 8021.Qbh and pci passthrough
If a 8021.Qbh network device supports SRIOV and its VF is being used
in pci passthrough mode, when the guest is shutdown or destroyed, the
PF inteface is also brought down. qemuDomainHostdevNetConfigRestore()
finds out the PF for provided hostdev (which is VF) and passes it to
virNetDevPortProfileDisassociate() as linkdev. Later, linkdev gets passed
to virNetDevSetOnline() where the interface is brought down by clearing
IFF_UP flag.

Bringing down a PF, when only VF is being brought down is not expected
behavior. This patch adds a check so that virNetDevSetOnline() is called
only for PF and not if device is a VF.

bf156385a0 network: use firewalld instead of iptables, when available
* configure.ac, spec file: firewalld defaults to enabled if dbus is
  available, otherwise is disabled. If --with_firewalld is explicitly
  requested and dbus is not available, configure will fail.

* bridge_driver: add dbus filters to get the FirewallD1.Reloaded
  signal and DBus.NameOwnerChanged on org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.
  When these are encountered, reload all the iptables reuls of all
  libvirt's virtual networks (similar to what happens when libvirtd is
  restarted).

* iptables, ebtables: use firewall-cmd's direct passthrough interface
  when available, otherwise use iptables and ebtables commands. This
  decision is made once the first time libvirt calls
  iptables/ebtables, and that decision is maintained for the life of
  libvirtd.

* Note that the nwfilter part of this patch was separated out into
  another patch by Stefan in V2, so that needs to be revised and
  re-reviewed as well.

================

All the configure.ac and specfile changes are unchanged from Thomas'
V3.

V3 re-ran "firewall-cmd --state" every time a new rule was added,
which was extremely inefficient.  V4 uses VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT to set
up a one-time initialization function.

The VIR_ONCE_GLOBAL_INIT(x) macro references a static function called
vir(Ip|Eb)OnceInit(), which will then be called the first time that
the static function vir(Ip|Eb)TablesInitialize() is called (that
function is defined for you by the macro). This is
thread-safe, so there is no chance of any race.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I've left the VIR_DEBUG messages in these two init
functions (one for iptables, on for ebtables) as VIR_WARN so that I
don't have to turn on all the other debug message just to see
these. Even if this patch doesn't need any other modification, those
messages need to be changed to VIR_DEBUG before pushing.

This one-time initialization works well. However, I've encountered
problems with testing:

1) Whenever I have enabled the firewalld service, *all* attempts to
call firewall-cmd from within libvirtd end with firewall-cmd hanging
internally somewhere. This is *not* the case if firewall-cmd returns
non-0 in response to "firewall-cmd --state" (i.e. *that* command runs
and returns to libvirt successfully.)

2) If I start libvirtd while firewalld is stopped, then start
firewalld later, this triggers libvirtd to reload its iptables rules,
however it also spits out a *ton* of complaints about deletion failing
(I suppose because firewalld has nuked all of libvirt's rules). I
guess we need to suppress those messages (which is a more annoying
problem to fix than you might think, but that's another story).

3) I noticed a few times during this long line of errors that
firewalld made a complaint about "Resource Temporarily
unavailable. Having libvirtd access iptables commands directly at the
same time as firewalld is doing so is apparently problematic.

4) In general, I'm concerned about the "set it once and never change
it" method - if firewalld is disabled at libvirtd startup, causing
libvirtd to always use iptables/ebtables directly, this won't cause
*terrible* problems, but if libvirtd decides to use firewall-cmd and
firewalld is later disabled, libvirtd will not be able to recover.

29bc4fe646 Add a sheepdog backend for the storage driver
This patch brings support to manage sheepdog pools and volumes to libvirt.
It uses the "collie" command-line utility that comes with sheepdog for that.

A sheepdog pool in libvirt maps to a sheepdog cluster.
It needs a host and port to connect to, which in most cases
is just going to be the default of localhost on port 7000.

A sheepdog volume in libvirt maps to a sheepdog vdi.
To create one specify the pool, a name and the capacity.
Volumes can also be resized later.

In the volume XML the vdi name has to be put into the <target><path>.
To use the volume as a disk source for virtual machines specify
the vdi name as "name" attribute of the <source>.
The host and port information from the pool are specified inside the host tag.

  <disk type='network'>
    ...
    <source protocol="sheepdog" name="vdi_name">
      <host name="localhost" port="7000"/>
    </source>
  </disk>

To work right this patch parses the output of collie,
so it relies on the raw output option. There recently was a bug which caused
size information to be reported wrong. This is fixed upstream already and
will be in the next release.

0ac3baee2c Fix vm's outbound traffic control problem
Hello,

This is a patch to fix vm's outbound traffic control problem.

Currently, vm's outbound traffic control by libvirt doesn't go well.
This problem was previously discussed at libvir-list ML, however
it seems that there isn't still any answer to the problem.
http://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2011-August/msg00333.html

I measured Guest(with virtio-net) to Host TCP throughput with the
command "netperf -H".
Here are the outbound QoS parameters and the results.

outbound average rate[kilobytes/s] : Guest to Host throughput[Mbit/s]
======================================================================
1024  (8Mbit/s)                    : 4.56
2048  (16Mbit/s)                   : 3.29
4096  (32Mbit/s)                   : 3.35
8192  (64Mbit/s)                   : 3.95
16384 (128Mbit/s)                  : 4.08
32768 (256Mbit/s)                  : 3.94
65536 (512Mbit/s)                  : 3.23

The outbound traffic goes down unreasonably and is even not controled.

The cause of this problem is too large mtu value in "tc filter" command run by
libvirt. The command uses burst value to set mtu and the burst is equal to
average rate value if it's not set. This value is too large. For example
if the average rate is set to 1024 kilobytes/s, the mtu value is set to 1024
kilobytes. That's too large compared to the size of network packets.
Here libvirt applies tc ingress filter to Host's vnet(tun) device.
Tc ingress filter is implemented with TBF(Token Buckets Filter) algorithm. TBF
uses mtu value to calculate the amount of token consumed by each packet. With too
large mtu value, the token consumption rate is set too large. This leads to
token starvation and deterioration of TCP throughput.

Then, should we use the default mtu value 2 kilobytes?
The anser is No, because Guest with virtio-net device uses 65536 bytes
as mtu to transmit packets to Host, and the tc filter with the default mtu
value 2k drops packets whose size is larger than 2k. So, the most packets
is droped and again leads to deterioration of TCP throughput.

The appropriate mtu value is 65536 bytes which is equal to the maximum value
of network interface device defined in <linux/netdevice.h>. The value is
not so large that it causes token starvation and not so small that it
drops most packets.
Therefore this patch set the mtu value to 64kb(== 65535 bytes).

Again, here are the outbound QoS parameters and the TCP throughput with
the libvirt patched.

outbound average rate[kilobytes/s] : Guest to Host throughput[Mbit/s]
======================================================================
1024  (8Mbit/s)                    : 8.22
2048  (16Mbit/s)                   : 16.42
4096  (32Mbit/s)                   : 32.93
8192  (64Mbit/s)                   : 66.85
16384 (128Mbit/s)                  : 133.88
32768 (256Mbit/s)                  : 271.01
65536 (512Mbit/s)                  : 547.32

The outbound traffic conforms to the given limit.

It currently produces:
-chardev tty,id=charparallel0,path=/dev/parport0
-device isa-parallel,chardev=charparallel0,id=parallel0

The first parameter is "tty". It sould be "parport".

If I launch qemu with -chardev parport,... it works as expected.

a02500d010 qemu: Make migration fail when port profile association fails on the dst host
In the current V3 migration protocol, Libvirt does not
check the result of the function

  qemuMigrationVPAssociatePortProfiles

This means that it is possible for a migration to complete
successfully even when the VM loses network connectivity on
the destination host.

With this change libvirt aborts the migration
(during the "finish" step) when the above function fails, that
is to say when at least one of the port profile associations fails.

df81004632 network: support Open vSwitch
This patch allows libvirt to add interfaces to already
existing Open vSwitch bridges. The following syntax in
domain XML file can be used:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
      <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
      <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
        <parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'/>
      </virtualport>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
                          slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

or if libvirt should auto-generate the interfaceid use
following syntax:

    <interface type='bridge'>
      <mac address='52:54:00:d0:3f:f2'/>
      <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
      <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
      </virtualport>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00'
                          slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
    </interface>

It is also possible to pass an optional profileid. To do that
use following syntax:

   <interface type='bridge'>
     <source bridge='ovsbr'/>
     <mac address='00:55:1a:65:a2:8d'/>
     <virtualport type='openvswitch'>
       <parameters interfaceid='921a80cd-e6de-5a2e-db9c-ab27f15a6e1d'
                   profileid='test-profile'/>
     </virtualport>
   </interface>

To create Open vSwitch bridge install Open vSwitch and
run the following command:

    ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr
