Finally got it set up in an Ubuntu VM, but I get the same segfault
error sans-LXC. Just a note, in order to actually get it compiled
within Ubuntu I had to make a change to a Makefile: spice/server/tests/Makefile: add -lm to LDFLAGS (looks like the LIBM line below doesn't get used?) (hand typed diff, prone to error) --- Makefile 2014-11-27 22:00:04.138824336 -0600 +++ Makefile.mod 2014-11-27 21:59:37.802824336 -0600 @@ -334,7 +334,7 @@ INSTALL_STRIP_PROGRAM = $(install_sh) -c -s JPEG_LIBS = -ljpeg LD = /usr/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64 -LDFLAGS = +LDFLAGS = -lm LIBM = -lm LIBOBJS = LIBRT = -lrt But, even after getting it successfully built, I get the same segfault as in LXC (note, no X is currently running and again this is hand-typed): $ sudo Xspice --vdagent --vdagent-exec $(which spice-vdagent) --vdagentd-exec $(which spice-vdagentd) --disable-ticketing :0 ...

Server aborting .... Kind of glad I hand typed this, because I may have found the error.... it's using the distribution-provided library from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libspice-server.so.1 instead of /usr/lib/libspice-server.so.1, that would cause some weird problems.. Reordering via ldconfig... success! I actually got it fully working within Ubuntu. Using `Xspice --disable-ticketing --vdagent --vdagentd-exec $(which spice-vdagentd) --vdagent-exec $(which spice-vdagent)`. I had to make a modification to the Xspice script in order to get it working properly: --- /usr/bin/Xspice 2014-11-27 22:58:26.114824336 -0600 +++ Xspice 2014-11-27 22:58:07.722824336 -0600 else: if args.vdagent_enabled and args.vdagent_launch: # XXX use systemd --user for this? - vdagentd = launch(args=[args.vdagentd_exec, '-x', '-S', vdagentd_uds, + vdagentd = launch(args=[args.vdagentd_exec, '-f', '-x', '-S', vdagentd_uds, '-s', args.vdagent_virtio_path, '-u', args.vdagent_uinput_path]) time.sleep(1) # TODO wait for uinput pipe open for write This simply adds the -f parameter to spice-vdagentd since /tmp/xspice-uinput is a pipe and not a character devices and, therefore, "fake." Without the parameter, spice-vdagend (pretty sure it was vdagentd) exits complaining about a bad ioctl. Using the modified Xspice allows me to copy/paste and automatic resolution switching. Getting it working with Xspice is definitely an accomplishment and I now know the caveats I need to fix within my LXC container. But first, my LXC setup depends on X starting with the qxlspice settings -- moving spiceqxl.xorg.conf to xorg.conf. In order to accomplish this I added the undocumented xorg.conf options: "SpiceVdagentEnabled" "0", "SpiceVdagentVirtioPath" "/tmp/xspice-virtio", "SpiceVdagentUinputPath" "/tmp/xspice-uinput" (taken from xf86-video-qxl/src/qxl_driver.c). Now I simply need to figure out how to get spice-vdagent and spice-vdagentd to start up alongside it, but that's another problem for another day. Overall, a huge success. But now, for Fedora. I'm unable to even get the QXL driver compiled for Fedora, unfortunately. I hit the following error when running `make`: ./configure: line 18133: syntax error near unexpected token `RANDR,' ./configure: line 18133: `XORG_DRIVER_CHECK_EXT(RANDR, randrproto)'' Keep in mind, this is my first experience with Fedora, but I've installed every x11 devel and xrandr devel package I can find. I even used advice I found on another forum to use `yum groupinstall "X11 Development Files"` (or some similar group name) to no avail. Oddly enough, I didn't have any issues with with compiling within my LXC container, but I'm not sure all the steps I took to set that up quite honestly. I even compared my installed packages with those from my LXC container, and they seem the same. # yum list '*x11*devel*' Installed Packages xorg-x11-proto-devel.noarch xorg-x11-server-devel.x86_64 xorg-x11-xkb-utils-devel.x86_64 xorg-x11-xtrans-devel.noarch ... #yum list '*randr*devel*' Installed Packages libXrandr-devel.x86_64 ... If you guys could point me in the right direction here, it'd be greatly appreciated. Chuck On 11/27/2014 06:02 AM, Charles

Well, I have Spice working perfectly fine in a Windows install. However, seeing as that's not pertinent to the Linux side of things I went ahead and installed Ubuntu 14.04 in Qemu and, as expected, everything worked. I didn't bother with the git sources in this install, because I was 99% sure it was going to work anyway. I don't have a Fedora ISO lying around to test it with, but I imagine that the results would be the same. However, I don't think that even this is pertinent to the problem. The reason I think this is because Qemu acts as the Spice server if I am correct. Qemu relays information from a network socket assigned on the command line to the virtualized serial port and vice versa. Since an LXC installation is sans-Qemu server then I must use Xspice in order to take the place of Qemu and act as a Spice server in order to relay information between the agents/QXL driver and the Spice client. So, testing it within Qemu doesn't really reflect the problem at all. Beyond Qemu, there's really no way to test it sans-LXC. Actually, now that I think about it I may be able to run Xspice directly within a VM and then attempt to connect to it... I'll try that out later on and let you know how/if that works out. I may have to get that Fedora ISO after all just to broaden the test cases. I realize that I'm effectively attempting to use Spice outside of normal circumstances. However, the way that Xspice behaves -- such as creating its own versions of the virtio port (as a socket rather than a character device) and uinput (as a pipe) and attempting to destroy any existing versions of those files -- leads me to believe that Xspice was almost built for the purpose even if not intentionally. And, as I had said before, I got it mostly working in a Fedora LXC container (only lacking client functionality, which is why I asked for input in the first place ;). I would like to be able to provide a stack trace of the segfault I get in the Ubuntu LXC, but I'm unsure how to compile the sources with debugging symbols. Any help in that respect?

That was part of why I was asking about the ucds socket. I found now that the ucds socket is used to talk to multiple agents. I have tried both setting each argument to specify the paths of each piece (ucds socket, uinput, and virtio port) and letting Xspice set them up automatically. Xspice by default re-creates these devices as sockets and pipes, so it seems that Xspice is actually ideal for this purpose; there is no need to create the devices by hand. However, any way it's done even with the newest sources results in the same thing. In the Fedora LXC under Ubuntu 14.04, I get a display but no agent functionality for some reason even though the same ucds port is used by both agentd and agent. In an Ubuntu 14.04 LXC container I can't even get X to start via the Xspice script or a direct call to X because it segfaults when using the spiceqxl driver. There also appears to be no difference between letting the Xspice script start the agents or starting the agents by hand, which isn't unexpected.Have you tried all of this without lxc to see how well/bad it works without adding lxc to the mix?
