Hi, I am seeing frequent libvirtd hangs (clients not responding) after last CentOS6-Xen update : libvirt-libs-4.1.0-2.xen46.el6.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-4.1.0-2.xen46.el6.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-network-4.1.0-2.xen46.el6.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-nwfilter-4.1.0-2.xen46.el6.x86_64 libgcc-4.4.7-18.el6_9.2.x86_64 2:qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.503.el6_9.5.x86_64 libvirt-daemon-driver-storage-core-4.1.0-2.xen46.el6.x86_64 libvi...

Bump. Folks, any ideas?

I have the following packages going through the CBS: * A CentOS 7 xen-4.6.1-2, with XSAs 170 and 154 * A CentOS 6 xen-4.6.1-2, with XSAs 170 and 154 * A CentOS 6 xen-4.4.3-11, with XSAs 170 All these should show up in mirrors hopefully sometime later today. As usual, please report any problems here. Xen 4.4 only has XSA 170 because at the time the embargo was lifted, I didn't have a suitable

...elcome. I do agree that it shouldn't be a huge amount of work for someone to pick this up, now that I've got the basic setup. (And I'll definitely still be around to help.) If someone wanted to step up and maintain the 4.4 xen packages, I'd be happy to hand that off, and just have xen46 for C6 and xen (v 4.6) for C7. -George

...king, if people are running yum cron the situation becomes even worse. I think that due to this lack of backwards compatibility with Xen 4.4 and earlier versions it would be a good idea to not force the upgrade on people who are not wary of it. I propose that the new packages carry the name "xen46" and they purposefully conflict with the old "xen" packages. That will require people to take positive action to do the upgrade and hence avoid breaking systems unintentionally. Peter

My inclination is towards a naming scheme like xen46, xen48, etc + a meta package that always depends on the latest. It should be more obvious when there's a major upgrade, and those who can't afford a major upgrade can uninstall the meta package. For the record, we have no particular desire for xen 4.4 but haven't done enough testing to...

As mentioned yesterday, Xen 4.6 packages are now available for testing. These also include an update to libvirt 1.3.0, in line with what's available for CentOS 7. Please test, particularly the upgrade if you can, and report any problems here. To upgrade: yum update --enablerepo=centos-virt-xen-testing To install from scratch: * Install centos-release-xen from centos-extras yum install
