While doing some testing with Qemu and creating huge logfiles I encountered the case where the VM could not start anymore due to the lseek() to the end of the Qemu VM's log file failing. The patch below fixes the problem by replacing the previously used 'int' with 'off_t'. To reproduce this error, you could do the following: dd if=/dev/zero of=/var/log/libvirt/qemu/<name of VM>.log bs=1024 count=$((1024*2048)) and you should get an error like this: error: Failed to start domain <name of VM> error: Unable to seek to -2147482651 in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/<name of VM>.log: Success
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
