virtio-mem with virt-install to share memory between guest and host on-demand
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

[libvirt-user] questions about disk driver virtio and charmonitor
hi all,
I have two questions about libvirt.
At first, how can I write a XML file that libvirt could give me a command that include this: if=virtio.
-drive file=/dev/vg.vmms/lvm-v097218.sqa.cm4,if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0,id=ide0-0-0
event I have let the <target dev=vda bus=virtio> the XML file also make the

Using Virtio drivers with kernal 2.6.18-164.el5
Hi All
I looked at this page for reference to using virtio drivers on KVM guests.
http://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Virtio
In the requirements section it is mentioned that we need a virtio
compatible guest with kernel >= 2.6.25
One of my guest has this version:
[root@localhost ~]# uname -a
Linux localhost 2.6.18-164.el5 #1 SMP Thu Sep 3 03:28:30 EDT 2009 x86_64

is memoryBacking support 'share' and 'mem-path' parameter
Hi,
I want to use this qemu command '-object memory-backend-file,id=mem,size=2048M,mem-path=/mnt/huge,share=on' with libvirt but i can't find the 'mem-path' and 'share' in the documentation.
because the vhost-user backend based on 'share=on' parameter and libvirt support vhostuser i guess there maybe another way to support this parameter?
this is my xml:
