Ryan Harper has uploaded a new change for review. Change subject: Fix vdsm-faqemu VM launch failure on hosts with newer libvirt ......................................................................
Fix vdsm-faqemu VM launch failure on hosts with newer libvirt Since January 2012, libvirt now checks[1] for the presence of /dev/kvm before starting a VM to generate better error messages when a VM doesn't start. This breaks faqemu running in a VM (non-nested) or a host which doesn't have KVM modules loaded. Work around this by touching the device node. 1. libvirt commit hash 32f63e912d3bef42a7fa70a0f2d5b04b98afe936 Change-Id: I1dc88f2931e8f716c1732a51d9f65f600f4fd1ef Signed-off-by: Ryan Harper <[email protected]> --- M vdsm_hooks/faqemu/vdsm-faqemu 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) git pull ssh://gerrit.ovirt.org:29418/vdsm refs/changes/23/7223/1 diff --git a/vdsm_hooks/faqemu/vdsm-faqemu b/vdsm_hooks/faqemu/vdsm-faqemu index 218af7f..a36a87c 100644 --- a/vdsm_hooks/faqemu/vdsm-faqemu +++ b/vdsm_hooks/faqemu/vdsm-faqemu @@ -19,4 +19,7 @@ qemu_argv += [ "-no-kvm" ] qemu_argv += filter(lambda x: x != "-enable-kvm", sys.argv[1:]) +# libvirt 0.9.10+ checks for the presence of /dev/kvm to provide +# better error messages, but this breaks this hook, fake it out +os.system("touch /dev/kvm") os.execv(qemu_bin, qemu_argv) -- To view, visit http://gerrit.ovirt.org/7223 To unsubscribe, visit http://gerrit.ovirt.org/settings Gerrit-MessageType: newchange Gerrit-Change-Id: I1dc88f2931e8f716c1732a51d9f65f600f4fd1ef Gerrit-PatchSet: 1 Gerrit-Project: vdsm Gerrit-Branch: master Gerrit-Owner: Ryan Harper <[email protected]> _______________________________________________ vdsm-patches mailing list [email protected] https://lists.fedorahosted.org/mailman/listinfo/vdsm-patches
