KVM Forum 2011 - expand the scope? yes, continue up the stack - how long? 2 days (maybe 2 1/2 - 3 space permitting) - where? Vancouver with LinuxCon Spice guest agent: - virt agent, matahari, spice agent...what is in spice agent? - spice char device - mouse, copy 'n paste, screen resolution change - could be generic (at least input and copy/paste) - send protocol details of what is being sent - need to look at how difficult it is to split it out from spice (how to split out in qemu vs. libspice) - goal to converge on common framework - more discussion on char device vs. protocol - eg. mouse_set breaks if mouse channel is part pv and part spice specific - Alon will send link to protocol and try to propose new interfaces migration and block devices: - need to invalidate data after first read on target, because it can be stale - close + reopen is what was done for NFS - iscsi: can issue ioctl(BLKFLSBUF) to flush, but it's CAP_SYS_ADMIN only - O_DIRECT to avoid cache (concerns that it's not guaranteed) - agree change the default (cache=none for qemu patch queue is long: - slow to return from break - patience and more patch review will help make sure things are applied and don't fall through cracks -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
