Ping. Hi, requesting review from more people on this patchset. Please take a look. Thanks! On 08/04/22 11:18 pm, Rohit Kumar wrote:
Libvirt domain XML currently allows only local filepaths that can be used to specify a NVRAM disk. Since, VMs can migrate across hypervisor hosts, it should be possible to allocate NVRAM disks on network storage for uninterrupted access. This series extends the NVRAM element to support hosting over network-backed disks, for high availability. It achieves this by embedding virStorageSource pointer for nvram into _virDomainLoaderDef. It introduces a 'type' attribute for NVRAM element to specify 'file' vs 'network' backed NVRAM. Changes v1->v2: - Split the patch into smaller patches - Added unit test - Updated the doc - Addressed Peter's comment on v1 (https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2022-March/229684.html) Rohit Kumar (8): Make NVRAM a virStorageSource type. Add support to parse/format virStorageSource type NVRAM Validate remote store NVRAM Cleanup diskSourceNetwork and diskSourceFile schema Update XML schema to support network backed NVRAM Update NVRAM documentation Add unit test for network backed NVRAM Add unit test to support new 'file' type NVRAM docs/formatdomain.rst | 43 +++++++-- src/conf/domain_conf.c | 88 ++++++++++++++++--- src/conf/domain_conf.h | 2 +- src/conf/schemas/domaincommon.rng | 80 +++++++++++------ src/qemu/qemu_cgroup.c | 3 +- src/qemu/qemu_command.c | 2 +- src/qemu/qemu_domain.c | 14 +-- src/qemu/qemu_driver.c | 5 +- src/qemu/qemu_firmware.c | 23 +++-- src/qemu/qemu_namespace.c | 5 +- src/qemu/qemu_process.c | 5 +- src/qemu/qemu_validate.c | 22 +++++ src/security/security_dac.c | 6 +- src/security/security_selinux.c | 6 +- src/security/virt-aa-helper.c | 5 +- src/vbox/vbox_common.c | 2 +- .../bios-nvram-file.x86_64-latest.args | 37 ++++++++ tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-file.xml | 23 +++++ .../bios-nvram-network.x86_64-latest.args | 37 ++++++++ tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-network.xml | 25 ++++++ tests/qemuxml2argvtest.c | 2 + 21 files changed, 360 insertions(+), 75 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-file.x86_64-latest.args create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-file.xml create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-network.x86_64-latest.args create mode 100644 tests/qemuxml2argvdata/bios-nvram-network.xml
