virt-v2v: Virtio-Scsi patch
by Jean-Louis Dupond
Hi,
I was trying to migrate some VM's to Virtio-SCSI block devices, as this
gives some advantages.
While checking the virt-v2v code, I found out that it supported
Virtio-SCSI, but some bits were missing.
In attachment a small patch that adds the missing bits :)
Best regards
Jean-Louis

I think this is env issue, we run on overloaded vms with small amount of memory.
I have seen such radnom failures before.

Unfortunately using LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1 LIBGUESTFS_TRACE=1 creates
huge amount of logs so it is not possible to include these log for every run.
Maybe we can show the logs only if the command failed, but vdsm infrastructure
make this hard to do since we always log commnad stderr, even if the command
was successful.
Also I'm not sure this is a good idea to always run virt-sparsify in
debug level.
I think I posted a patch to run libguestfs-test-tool after virt-something errors
for collecting data, but I cannot find it. Maybe this can be useful,
so after every
virt-something error we will have enough info about the issue in vdsm log.

I think this is the right solution - when virt-something tool fails,
it should log the
reason for the failure - the error that caused the tool to fail. I'm
not sure this is
easy to do as the failing code run inside a special VM. Maybe the code running
in the VM should log the output in a machine readable way, so once an error
is detected virt-something can report the error as the reason, without running
in debug mode.

[libnbd PATCH] info: Add support for new 'qemu-nbd -A' qemu:allocation-depth
by Eric Blake
A rather trivial decoding; we may enhance it further if qemu extends
things to give an integer depth alongside its tri-state encoding.
---
I'll wait to push this to libnbd until the counterpart qemu patches
land upstream, although it looks like I've got positive review.

CI for nbdkit
by alan somers
Would libguestfs be willing to enable CI for the nbdkit project? It's very
easy to set up, at least for the Rust portion. I'm comfortable with both
Cirrus CI and Github's native CI. I can get it started if you agree to do
it.

+=head1 NAME
+
+nbdkit-exitwhen-filter - exit gracefully when an event occurs
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ nbdkit --filter=exitwhen PLUGIN
+ [exit-when-file-created=FILENAME]
+ [exit-when-file-deleted=FILENAME]
+ [exit-when-pipe-closed=FD]
+ [exit-when-process-exits=PID]
+ [exit-when-script=SCRIPT]
+ [exit-when-poll=SECS]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+C<nbdkit-exitwhen-filter> is an nbdkit filter that causes nbdkit to
+exit gracefully when some external event occurs. Built-in events are:
+a file being created or deleted, a pipe being closed, or a process
+exiting. You can also define custom events using an external script
+or command.
+
+After the event occurs nbdkit refuses new connections, waits for all
+current clients to disconnect, and then exits.
+
+A similar filter is L<nbdkit-exitlast-filter(1)>. For other ways to
+ensure that nbdkit exits when you want see L<nbdkit-captive(1)> and
+L<nbdkit-service(1)>.
+
+=head1 EXAMPLES
+
+ nbdkit --filter=exitwhen memory 1G exit-when-file-created=/tmp/stop
+
+nbdkit will run normally until something creates F</tmp/stop>,
+whereupon nbdkit will refuse new connections and exit as soon as the
+last client has disconnected. If F</tmp/stop> exists before nbdkit
+starts, it will exit immediately.
+
+ nbdkit --filter=exitwhen memory 1G exit-when-process-exits=1234
+
+nbdkit will exit gracefully when PID 1234 exits and all connections
+close. If you want to exit when the parent process of nbdkit exits,
+consider using the I<--exit-with-parent> flag instead.
+
+=head1 PARAMETERS
+
+You can define multiple C<exit-when-*> events on the command line:
+nbdkit will exit if any of the events happens. If there are no
+C<exit-when-*> events then the filter does nothing.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<exit-when-file-created=>FILENAME
+
+=item B<exit-when-file-deleted=>FILENAME
+
+Exit when the named file is created or deleted.
+
+=item B<exit-when-pipe-closed=>FD
+
+The read end of a L<pipe(2)> is passed to nbdkit in the given file
+descriptor number. Exit when the pipe is closed. The filter does not
+read any data from the pipe.
+
+=item B<exit-when-process-exits=>PID
+
+Exit when process ID C<PID> exits.
+
+Note there is a small race between passing the process ID to the
+filter and the filter checking it for the first time. During this
+window the original PID might exit and an unrelated program might get
+the same PID, thus holding nbdkit open for longer than wanted. The
+pipe method above is more reliable if you are able to modify the other
+process.
+
+=item B<exit-when-script=">SCRIPTB<">
+
+Create a custom event using the script or command C<SCRIPT>. The
+C<SCRIPT> can be a program, shell script or a command with optional
+parameters. Note if using a separate program or script that you may
+need to use the absolute path because nbdkit changes directory when it
+daemonizes.
+
+The script should exit with code 88 if the event is detected. The
+filter does different things depending on the exit code of the script:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item C<0>
+
+I<The event has not been triggered>, so nbdkit continues to process
+requests as normal.
+
+=item C<1-87>
+
+An error is logged, but the event is I<not> triggered and nbdkit
+continues to process requests as normal.
+
+=item C<88>
+
+I<The event has been triggered>. nbdkit will refuse new connections
+and exit gracefully as soon as all current clients disconnect.
+
+=item C<89->
+
+Exit codes 89 and above are reserved for future use. The behaviour
+may change in future if scripts return any of these exit codes.
+
+=back
+
+=item B<exit-when-poll=>SECS
+
+When nbdkit is serving clients this filter does not need to poll
+because it can check for events when a client connects or disconnects.
+However when nbdkit is idle the filter needs to poll for events every
+C<SECS> seconds and if any event happens exit immediately.
+
+The default is 60 seconds.

[PATCH nbdkit INCOMPLETE] New filter: exitwhen: exit gracefully when an event occurs.
by Richard W.M. Jones
This incomplete patch adds a new filter allowing more control over
when nbdkit exits. You can now get nbdkit to exit gracefully on
certain events, such as a file being created, a pipe held open by
another process going away, or when another PID exits. There is also
a script option to allow for completely custom events.
It is untested at the moment, I'm posting it to get feedback on the
idea. The manual page is a complete description of the proposed
feature.
To do:
- implement the polling thread
- add tests
