Hi Riccardo, thanks for the report and the discussion until there was a fix. I have prepared PPAs for Groovy and Focal including that fix for you to try if that change alone is really sufficient for your case as well. If you could give these a try and let me know? ** Bug watch added: gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues #25 https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt/-/issues/25 ** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * The impact is log flooding with warnings for every guest start/stop + + * Maybe the impact also has in some cases worse effects due to the bad RC + of the function e.g. blocking other actions - that could be happening in + the CI run it was reported with. + + * Upstream has added a fix and this is backporting it (applies cleanly as- + is) + + [Test Case] + + * Run this in one console + $ journalctl -f -u libvirtd | grep -i meta + * and in the other spawn a guest (e.g. via uvtool-libvirt or any other) + and shut it down. Shutdown will pass qemuBlockRemoveImageMetadata -> + qemuSecurityMoveImageMetadata ... which will trigger the issue. + + Without a fix the log will all the time get an entry like: + + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: internal error: child reported (status=125): this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: Unable to remove disk metadata on vm focal from /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/focal.qcow (disk target vda) + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: internal error: child reported (status=125): this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: Unable to remove disk metadata on vm focal from /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/x-uvt-b64-Y29tLnVidW50dS5jbG91ZC5kYWlseTpzZXJ2ZXI6MjAuMDQ6YW1kNjQgMjAyMDAzMjk= (disk target vda) + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: internal error: child reported (status=125): this function is not supported by the connection driver: virSecurityManagerMoveImageMetadata + Mai 20 07:10:12 Keschdeichel libvirtd[2638]: Unable to remove disk metadata on vm focal from /var/lib/uvtool/libvirt/images/focal-ds.qcow (disk target vdb) + + + [Regression Potential] + + * It is a check on a function that doesn't need to exist for apparmor. + Hence making that check not a fail does not have a huge regression + potential - it is not that "now" it would do more.
