[openstack-dev] Devstack with libvirt and xenlight

2014-11-03 Thread Clark Laughlin
Hello,

I am working with Openstack on ARMv8 and would like to test Devstack using
libvirt with Xen (xenlight).  I am looking for information on how to
correctly configure Devstack for this.

I have used Devstack with libvirt (and KVM) on ARMv8 recently and it works
for the most part (with a few issues that we knew about).

Currently, I have build libvirt (using --with-libxl) and have manually
tested various operations with it (using virsh -c xen:///) and they are all
working so far.

I have already been told by Xen maintainers that using XenAPI on ARMv8 is
not going to be an option yet, and that I need to proceed with libvirt +
xenlight for now.

Any pointers to how to setup Devstack correctly would be appreciated.

Thank you,
Clark L

 It is added automatically by libvirt when an app provides a graphics

[openstack-dev] How does the libvirt domain XML get created?

2013-10-15 Thread Clark Laughlin
Hello everyone,

I'm trying to figure out how videomodel type='cirrus' vram='9216' 
heads='1'//video makes it into the libvirt domain XML when creating a new 
instance.  I see where much of the content of the XML is created by the libvirt 
driver under nova/nova/virt/libvirt.  However, I am unable to find where this 
makes it in there.  Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thank you,
Clark L

I can see in config.py where VNC gets added (the graphics element), but I 
can't find any place where a video element gets added.  In fact, I've grepped 
the entire nova tree for cirrus or video and can only find it here:

./nova/tests/virt/libvirt/fakelibvirt.py

 This XML is created by helper classes in nova/virt/libvirt/config.py.
 I'd look for XML which matches what you're looking for there and then
 look for the class which correlates to your XML in driver.py.
 
 Cheers,
 Michael
