KVM call minutes for August 31

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

 



QMP/QPI
- declare what's in 0.13 supported
  - means reasonable effort to avoid breaking something (deprecation is
    possible)
- things that are left, shallow patch or human monitor conversion
- how to move forward?
  - need to improve interfaces (no argument there)
  - internal vs. external interfaces
  - QMP == external, stable, extensible, discoverable, fwd/back compat
  - internal == C, data structures, changeable, non-stable
  - redefine internal interfaces and work up?
    - this addresses concern that most changes are in monitor.c
    - and addresses the concern that we aren't defining proper
      extensible top level interfaces
  - work top down from external?
    - map to internal details...fix internals when external is
      hard/impossible based on internals
- need to focus on QMP command addition in the face of internal details
  - no disagreement there
- decouple monitor and QMP
- sane interfaces (proposal for migration from Anthony)
- error issues...

0.13 schedule
- rc1 tagged locally and under test, once testing completes, upload,
  then one week to fix any outstanding issues
  - will push tag later today and upload, announce once propagates (24hrs-ish)

qemu-kvm integration
- not getting a lot of cycles
- nothing major that anthony won't pull
  - extboot still
- performance
  - i/o threading model (merge both and fix in-tree)
- in-kernel apic
- device assignement (vfio against qemu tree)
- disable ia64
- avi will look at doing the pull request
