Add port number to <graphics> tag

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



We recently added the '<graphics>' tag to the XML description for HVM
machines. Any apps using this info though would have to hardcode the
assumption that Xen's QEMU listens on Domain-ID + 5900. Hardcoding the
port numbers in the first place is already a really questionable decision,
so we should avoid that propagating out to application code.

Thus, the attached patch changes:

  <graphics type="vnc"/>

So that it now looks  like

  <graphics type="vnc" port="5905"/>

The hardcoded 'Domain-ID + 5900' craziness is now at least isolated in 
libvirt, so provided apps take the port number from the XML they will be
immune from changes in port numbering scheme.

Dan.
