      qemu: Support setting the 'removable' flag for USB disks · feba2feb
      Fred A. Kemp 提交于
      Add an attribute named 'removable' to the 'target' element of disks,
      which controls the removable flag. For instance, on a Linux guest it
      controls the value of /sys/block/$dev/removable. This option is only
      valid for USB disks (i.e. bus='usb'), and its default value is 'off',
      which is the same behaviour as before.
      
      To achieve this, 'removable=on' (or 'off') is appended to the '-device
      usb-storage' parameter sent to qemu when adding a USB disk via
      '-disk'. A capability flag QEMU_CAPS_USB_STORAGE_REMOVABLE was added
      to keep track if this option is supported by the qemu version used.

      Revert "qemu: detect multi-head qxl via more than version check" · 7524cd89
      Eric Blake 提交于
      This reverts commit 5ac846e4.
      
      After further discussions with Alon Levy, I learned the following:
      
      The use of '-vga qxl' vs. '-device qxl-vga' is completely orthogonal
      to whether ram_size can be exposed.  Downstream distros are interested
      in backporting support for multi-head qxl, but this can be done in
      one of two ways:
      1. Support one head per PCI device.  If you do this, then it makes
      sense to have full control over the PCI address of each device. For
      full control, you need '-device qxl-vga' instead of '-vga qxl'.
      2. Support multiple heads through a single PCI device.  If you do
      this, then you need to allocate more RAM to that PCI device (enough
      ram to cover the multiple screens).  Here, the device is hard-coded
      to 0:0:2.0, both in qemu and libvirt code.
      
      Apparently, backporting ram_size changes to allow multiple heads in
      a single device is much easier than backporting multiple device
      support.  Furthermore, the presence or absence of qxl-vga.surfaces
      is no different than the presence or absence of qxl-vga.ram_size;
      both properties can be applied regardless of whether you have one
      PCI device (-vga qxl) or multiple (-device qxl-vga), so this property
      is NOT a good witness of whether '-device qxl-vga' support has been
      backported.
      
      Downstream RHEL will NOT be using this patch; and worse, leaving this
      patch in risks doing the wrong thing if compiling upstream libvirt
      on RHEL, so the best course of action is to revert it.  That means
      that libvirt will go back to only using '-device qxl-vga' for qemu
      >= 1.2, but this is just fine because we know of no distros that plan
      on backporting multiple PCI address support to any older version of
      qemu.  Meanwhile, downstream can still use ram_size to pack multiple
      heads through a single PCI device.

      qemu: detect multi-head qxl via more than version check · 5ac846e4
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Multi-head QXL support is so useful that distros have started to
      backport it to qemu earlier than 1.2.  After discussion with
      Alon Levy, we determined that the existence of the qxl-vga.surfaces
      property is a reliable indicator of whether '-device qxl-vga' works,
      or whether we have to stick to the older '-vga qxl'.  I'm leaving
      in the existing check for QEMU_CAPS_DEVICE_VIDEO_PRIMARY tied to
      qemu 1.2 and newer (in case qemu is built without qxl support),
      but for those distros that backport qxl, this additional capability
      check will allow the correct command line for both RHEL 6.3 (which
      lacks the feature) and RHEL 6.4 (where qemu still claims to be
      version 0.12.2.x, but has backported multi-head qxl).

      property test.
      (virQEMUCapsExtractDeviceStr): Probe for backport of new

      qemu: enable multifunction for older qemu · 8644a379
      Eric Blake 提交于
      Now that RHEL 6.2 Beta is out, it would be nice to test multifunction
      devices on that platform.  This changes things so that the multifunction
      cap bit can be set in two different ways: by version comparison (needed
      for qemu 0.13 which lacked a -device query), and by -device query
      (provided by qemu.git and backported to the RHEL beta build of
      qemu-kvm which still claims to be a modified 0.12, and therefore needed
      for RHEL).

      second method of setting multifunction cap bit.

      Add txmode attribute to interface XML for virtio backend · e9bd5c0e
      Laine Stump 提交于
      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.
