Does a comprehensive set of instructions on how to compile Libvirt on a Microsoft Vista platform exist? Has this ever been accomplished? I would very much appreciate input from persons who can give me confidence that a Windows client application can be developed on top of Libviet that connects to a QEMU system on an Ubuntu server. The Libvirt Windows Support page

Hello all, I'm currently writing a C program that uses the libvirt API and I need a way to obtain the pid of a given domain's QEMU process. Specifically, I'm writing an ivshmem server that uses SO_PEERCRED to get the pid of clients that connect to it, and I would like to use that pid to look up the domain in libvirt to determine the proper domain ID to return to the client. As

Hello. I have an app (virt-manager) for remote connection to server where libvirtd is running. When I make a new connection with uri (qemu+tcp://paul@172.16.111.20/system) I want to know username (paul here) on the side of server. But an object virConnectPtr has URI (qemu:///system ) on the remote server. Why and how I can know username on the server's side?

Having newly compiled a Libvirt on a Windows Vista machine (many thanks to Matthias Bolte) I have attempted to connect to a remote Ubuntu machine using virsh.exe. However, the connection fails as follows: $ virsh -c qemu+tcp:///system error: unable to connect to libvirtd at 'localhost': errno=10061 error: failed to connect to the hypervisor 1. I have modified

Hi In my program , When libvirtd restart , the old libvirtd connection(virConnectPtr) has to reconnect, Before usr old virConnectPtr , I call virConnectIsAlive. but when I restart libvirtd , virConnectIsAlive return 1, and I continue other operate use the old virConnectPtr, program will receive signal pipe. I use libvirt event. before any api use, I call virEventRegisterDefaultImpl, and

Hi I'm trying to Passthrough a GPU to a VM and have it still share its free memory with the host (just like it would with virtio-balloon). Is this something virtio-mem is capable of? I've tried to run it, but it immediately took over 9GB of memory: virt-install --name test --cpu cell0.cpus=0,cell0.memory=4194304,cell1.cpus=1,cell1.memory=4194304 --memory

Unlike the <cpu> node (see the other thread on the libguestfs ML), reading the Real Time Clock doesn't require libvirt and does work :-) For reference, read: https://libvirt.org/formatdomain.html#elementsTime https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_zone To test this you can run virt-p2v under qemu with a RTC offset: make -C p2v \ run-virt-p2v-in-a-vm \

Dell Customer Communication Hi All, I am using Compiled against library: libvirt 1.2.9 Using library: libvirt 1.2.9 Using API: QEMU 1.2.9 Running hypervisor: QEMU 2.1.2 I want user to provide username and password authentication to virConnectPtr virConnectOpenAuth(const char *name, virConnectAuthPtr auth, unsigned int flags) to login remotely for the qemu

A disk of type 'volume' is stored as <source pool='pool_name' volume='volume_name'/> and its real location is inside the 'volume_name', as 'pool_name': in this case, query libvirt for the actual path of the specified volume in the specified pool. Adjust the code so that: - for_each_disk gets the virConnectPtr, needed to do operations with libvirt

Move the checks for empty xmlXPathObjectPtr, and for extracting the result string out of it, to a new helper functions. This is just code motion, there should be no behaviour changes. --- src/libvirt-domain.c | 122 +++++++++++++++++++++------------------------------ 1 file changed, 50 insertions(+), 72 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/libvirt-domain.c b/src/libvirt-domain.c index 4d4142d..baab307

Hi, For testing purposes, we deploy our app on different PCs. In the environment.rb file , we would like to set a constant to the name and port of the host. Is there a function that we can call to obtain the host and port when called from environment.rb? Ideally we want something like SVR=host_and_port() Remember, we cannot use ActionController#host_with_port because we are not in an action.

Thanks for the response. /var/run/libvirt/qemu/ seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. It would, however, be nice to be able to access this file without root privileges. Is there any way to access the file using the credentials from a connected virConnectPtr? If not, I can stick to my current workaround of walking /proc and scanning each PID's cmdline for the VM's UUID string.

I have a system where I spawn a single libvirt daemon process in the default network namespace. Once the daemon is running, I create and start VMs using the virDomainDefineXML API (defines a VM or "domain" but does not boot it) followed by the virDomainCreate API (boot the VM). Now, I am trying to create these VMs in generic network namespaces provided by the user e.g.,

All, These days I am trying to understand the interaction relationship between the libvirt and KVM kernel module, eg. kvm_intel.ko. We know that KVM kernel module expose an entry in form of device file "/dev/kvm" which can be accessed by user space application to control, for example, create a VM using KVM_CREATE_VM with help of ioctl. Now let's say the tool virsh based upon

libvirtd will lock if for example kill programm which established connection, only sigkill + restart helps., to reproduce: virConnectPtr libvirt_connection = virConnectOpen("qemu:///system"); if(libvirt_connection == NULL) { std::cout<<"failed to connect to qemu:///system\n"; exit(-1); } exit(0);

Hello, I am working on replacing atoi () and atol() functions with strtol() and strtoul() . I came across many files which uses statement like these time_t secs= atoi(data_span.c_str()), here time_t Datatype is not known but wikipedia says that it is integer so is it necessary to replace atoi with strtol over here ?? And is their any document which helps me what each file function does like
