Looking at the page https://doc.dpdk.org/guides-22.11/sample_app_ug/vhost.html
I first use the Virtual Machine Manager GUI to initially set up Ubuntu 22.04.
Note: I disabled AppArmor as that caused a separate problem trying to create
/tmp/sock0
Next, I add the flags to the config (note I need server**=on**, and net9 to
prevent duplicate IDs):
virt-xml ubuntu22.04 --edit --confirm --qemu-commandline="-chardev
socket,id=char1,path=/tmp/sock0,server=on \
-netdev type=vhost-user,id=hostnet9,chardev=char1 \
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet9,id=net9,mac=52:54:00:00:00:14"
--connect qemu:///system
The XML looks OK, so I then do:
virsh start ubuntu22.04
However, this hangs, and Ctrl-C gets me back to the command line, where I can
do this:
virsh list --all
Id Name State
------------------------------
10 ubuntu22.04 paused
virsh shutdown ubuntu22.04
error: Failed to shutdown domain 'ubuntu22.04'
error: Timed out during operation: cannot acquire state change lock (held by
monitor=remoteDispatchDomainCreate)
Only a reboot can reset the situation. What is missing, or where am I going
wrong?
Thanks,
Ken
