* qcow2: Fix cache-clean-interval documentationLeonid Bloch2018-10-011-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | Fixing cache-clean-interval documentation following the recent change to a default of 600 seconds on supported plarforms (only Linux currently).

* qcow2: Set the default cache-clean-interval to 10 minutesLeonid Bloch2018-10-011-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default cache-clean-interval is set to 10 minutes, in order to lower the overhead of the qcow2 caches (before the default was 0, i.e. disabled). * For non-Linux platforms the default is kept at 0, because cache-clean-interval is not supported there yet.

* qcow2: Increase the default upper limit on the L2 cache sizeLeonid Bloch2018-10-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The upper limit on the L2 cache size is increased from 1 MB to 32 MB on Linux platforms, and to 8 MB on other platforms (this difference is caused by the ability to set intervals for cache cleaning on Linux platforms only). This is done in order to allow default full coverage with the L2 cache for images of up to 256 GB in size (was 8 GB). Note, that only the needed amount to cover the full image is allocated. The value which is changed here is just the upper limit on the L2 cache size, beyond which it will not grow, even if the size of the image will require it to.

* qcow2: Assign the L2 cache relatively to the image sizeLeonid Bloch2018-10-011-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Sufficient L2 cache can noticeably improve the performance when using large images with frequent I/O. Previously, unless 'cache-size' was specified and was large enough, the L2 cache was set to a certain size without taking the virtual image size into account. Now, the L2 cache assignment is aware of the virtual size of the image, and will cover the entire image, unless the cache size needed for that is larger than a certain maximum. This maximum is set to 1 MB by default (enough to cover an 8 GB image with the default cluster size) but can be increased or decreased using the 'l2-cache-size' option. This option was previously documented as the *maximum* L2 cache size, and this patch makes it behave as such, instead of as a constant size. Also, the existing option 'cache-size' can limit the sum of both L2 and refcount caches, as previously.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When QEMU emulates vNVDIMM labels and migrates vNVDIMM devices, it needs to know whether the backend storage is a real persistent memory, in order to decide whether special operations should be performed to ensure the data persistence. This boolean option 'pmem' allows users to specify whether the backend storage of memory-backend-file is a real persistent memory. If 'pmem=on', QEMU will set the flag RAM_PMEM in the RAM block of the corresponding memory region. If 'pmem' is set while lack of libpmem support, a error is generated.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Pre-Shared Keys (PSK) is a simpler mechanism for enabling TLS connections than using certificates. It requires only a simple secret key: $ mkdir -m 0700 /tmp/keys $ psktool -u rjones -p /tmp/keys/keys.psk $ cat /tmp/keys/keys.psk rjones:d543770c15ad93d76443fb56f501a31969235f47e999720ae8d2336f6a13fcbc The key can be secretly shared between clients and servers. Clients must specify the directory containing the "keys.psk" file and a username (defaults to "qemu"). Servers must specify only the directory. Example NBD client: $ qemu-img info \ --object tls-creds-psk,id=tls0,dir=/tmp/keys,username=rjones,endpoint=client \ --image-opts \ file.driver=nbd,file.host=localhost,file.port=10809,file.tls-creds=tls0,file.export=/ Example NBD server using qemu-nbd: $ qemu-nbd -t -x / \ --object tls-creds-psk,id=tls0,endpoint=server,dir=/tmp/keys \ --tls-creds tls0 \ image.qcow2 Example NBD server using nbdkit: $ nbdkit -n -e / -fv \ --tls=on --tls-psk=/tmp/keys/keys.psk \ file file=disk.img Signed-off-by: Richard W.M.

* Deprecate the -enable-hax optionThomas Huth2018-06-281-1/+1

Since "-accel" is our preferred way to enable an accelerator nowadays, and "-accel hax" is even less to type than "-enable-hax", let's deprecate the "-enable-hax" option now. Note: While "-enable-kvm" is available since a long time and can hardly be removed since it is used in a lot of upper layer tools and scripts, the "-enable-hax" option is still rather new and not very widespread yet, so I think that it should be OK if we remove this in a couple of releases again (we'll see whether someone complains after seeing the deprecation message - then we could still reconsider to keep it if there a well-founded reasons).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This option allows pausing QEMU in the new RUN_STATE_PRECONFIG state, allowing the configuration of QEMU from QMP before the machine jumps into board initialization code of machine_run_board_init() The intent is to allow management to query machine state and additionally configure it using previous query results within one QEMU instance (i.e. eliminate the need to start QEMU twice, 1st to query board specific parameters and 2nd for actual VM start using query results for additional parameters). The new option complements -S option and could be used with or without it. The difference is that -S pauses QEMU when the machine is completely initialized with all devices wired up and ready to execute guest code (QEMU needs only to unpause VCPUs to let guest execute its code), while the "preconfig" option pauses QEMU early before board specific init callback (machine_run_board_init) is executed and allows the configuration of machine parameters which will be used by board init code. When early introspection/configuration is done, command 'exit-preconfig' should be used to exit RUN_STATE_PRECONFIG and transition to the next requested state (i.e. if -S is used then QEMU will pause the second time when board/device initialization is completed or start guest execution if -S isn't provided on CLI) PS: Initially 'preconfig' is planned to be used for configuring numa topology depending on board specified possible cpus layout.

* qemu-doc: Rework the network options chapter to make "-net" less prominentThomas Huth2018-03-301-95/+94Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | "-net" is clearly a legacy option. Yet we still use it in almost all examples in the qemu documentation, and many other spots in the network chapter. We should make it less prominent that users are not lured into using it so often anymore. So instead of starting the network chapter with "-net nic" and documenting "-net <backend>" below "-netdev <backend>" everywhere, all the "-net" related documentation is now moved to the end of the chapter. The new "-nic" option is moved to the beginning of the chapter instead, with a new example that should demonstrate how "-nic" can be used to shortcut "-device" with "-netdev". The examples in this chapter are changed to use the "-device" and "-netdev" options or "-nic" instead of "-net nic -net <backend>". While we're at it, also remove a legacy remark about very old Linux distributions. Also remove the "[...]" from the examples in this chapter since we are not using this ellipsis in any other examples in our docu- mentation.

* balloon: Fix documentation of the --balloon parameter and deprecate itThomas Huth2018-03-061-7/+4Star
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | There are two issues with the documentation of the --balloon parameter: First, "--balloon none" is simply doing nothing. Even if a machine had a balloon device by default, this option is not disabling anything, it is simply ignored. Thus let's simply drop this option from the documentation to avoid to confuse the users (but keep the code in vl.c for backward compatibility). Second, the documentation claims that "--balloon virtio" is the default mode, but this is not true anymore since commit 382f074371f7dc32a34. Since that commit, the option also has no real use case anymore, since you can simply use "--device virtio-balloon" nowadays instead. Thus to simplify our complex parameter zoo a little bit, let's deprecate the the parameter now and tell the user to use "--device virtio-balloon" instead.

* net: Add a new convenience option "--nic" to configure default/on-board NICsThomas Huth2018-03-051-6/+34
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The legacy "-net" option can be quite confusing for the users since most people do not expect to get a "vlan" hub between their emulated guest hardware and the host backend. But so far, we are also not able to get rid of "-net" completely, since it is the only way to configure on-board NICs that can not be instantiated via "-device" yet. It's also a little bit shorter to type "-net nic -net tap" instead of "-device xyz,netdev=n1 -netdev tap,id=n1". So what we need is a new convenience option that is shorter to type than the full -device + -netdev stuff, and which can be used to configure the on-board NICs that can not be handled via -device yet. Thus this patch now provides such a new option "--nic": It adds an entry in the nd_table to configure a on-board / default NIC, creates a host backend and connects the two directly, without a confusing "vlan" hub inbetween.
