[libvirt] [RFC,PATCH] network: add 'netboot' option to dhcp config

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

 



Currently, libvirtd will start a dnsmasq process for the virtual
network, but (aside from killing the dnsmasq process and replacing it),
there's no way to define tftp boot options.

This change introduces a 'netboot' tag to the dhcp configuration:

 <network>
   <name>default</name>
   <bridge name="virbr%d" />
   <forward/>
   <ip address="192.168.122.1" netmask="255.255.255.0">
     <dhcp>
       <range start="192.168.122.2" end="192.168.122.254" />
       <netboot root="/srv/tftp" file="pxeboot.img"/>
     </dhcp>
   </ip>
 </network>

When root= and file= attributes are present, these are passed to the
arguments to dnsmasq:

 dnsmasq [...] --enable-tftp --tftp-root /srv/tftp --dhcp-boot pxeboot.img

At present, only local tftp servers are supported (ie, dnsmasq runs as
the tftp server), but we could improve this in future by adding a
server= attribute.
