[PATCH v13 0/3] virt-builder-repository
by Cédric Bosdonnat
Hey there,
Here is an update of the series. The changes:
* Incorporate Richard's comments. Left out the with_openfile one
since that leads to a double close.
* Change the ask option return type to string (removing the option)
since if the use doesn't input anything we're using the default,
and the default is now a mandatory parameter.
* Make sure there are items in the lvs list before getting the
first one.
Cédric Bosdonnat (3):
builder: change arch type to distinguish guesses
builder: add a template parameter to get_index

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/4] enable parallel nbd forwarding

With this, I am finally able to get the nbd plugin to do out-of-order
responses to the client. Once this series goes in, we should be
ready for Rich to cut a release.

[nbdkit PATCH] maint: Mention upstream NBD in README
by Eric Blake
It's worth having a link to the upstream NBD protocol as part
of README.
Fix a typo while at it.

[nbdkit PATCH] nbd: Properly mop up stranded requests
by Eric Blake
Nothing in the second loop of nbd_reader() was ever setting
quit; the only way the loop could end was via SEGV for
dereferencing NULL or abort() when attempting to write to
an invalid fd. Finish the implementation to properly mop
up stranded in-flight requests.
The testsuite did not exercise the case of quitting
nbdkit while a transaction was in flight, but was relying
on SIGTERM exiting the entire process before all threads
were reaped; otherwise, I might have spotted this sooner.

[nbdkit PATCH v2 0/8] Support parallel transactions within single connection
by Eric Blake
I've posted some of these patches or ideas before; but now I'm
confident enough with the series that it should be ready to push;
at any rate, I can now run test-socket-activation in a tight loop
without triggering any crashes or hangs.
With this in place, I'm going back to work on making the nbd
forwarder wort with the parallel thread model.
Eric Blake (8):
sockets: Use pipe-to-self to avoid hanging in poll
cleanup: Add ACQUIRE_LOCK_FOR_CURRENT_SCOPE()
connections: Add read/write lock over client I/O
connections: Add thread-safe status indicator
connections: Set up thread pool for handling client requests
core: Add --threads option for supporting true parallel requests
tests: Annotate Makefile.am conditionals
tests: Test parallel behavior

[PATCH] builder: planner: Don't add some impossible transitions.

Certain transitions where the input and output filename are the same
are impossible, eg copying a file to itself. Don't add these.

virt-builder resize error
by David Kaylor
Hi,
I was trying out virt-builder and noticed that in some directories I
receive an error when the image is resized.
For example, if I run the following command from my home directory it works
fine:
virt-builder rhel-7.4 --size 10G --output test.img
If I run the same command from /tmp or /vms (my default libvirt pool), I
see the following in my verbose output:
virt-resize '--verbose' '--format' 'raw' '--output-format' 'raw' '--expand'
'/dev/sda3' '--unknown-filesystems' 'error' 'test.img' 'test.img'
command line: virt-resize --verbose --format raw --output-format raw
--expand /dev/sda3 --unknown-filesystems error test.img test.img
virt-resize: error: you cannot use the same disk image for input and output
Am I doing something wrong or is this possibly a bug? The host I am running
virt-builder on is Fedora 27.
Thanks,
David

[nbdkit PATCH 0/2] Add nbd forwarder test coverage
by Eric Blake
To avoid bitrot, any new feature needs testsuite coverage ;)
Still to come: once I get my work on parallel nbd finished,
I will add a test-parallel-nbd.sh that closely mirrors what
my other series added in test-parallel-file.sh.
If desired, it might be a fun exercise to tweak test-nbd into
using a for-loop of user-controlled depth for how deep you
want to nest the forwarding tree, to see where the bottlenecks
like in trying to improve nbdkit performance.
