I can confirm that installing a newer version of libvirt fixes the
issue.

We just did this for an nova-libvirt container in the Openstack Victoria
release, wich we had upgraded from Rocky.

We used the latest available libvirt version for Ubuntu 20.04:
6.0.0-0ubuntu8.12

Hello Peter, or anyone else affected,

Accepted libvirt into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libvirt/6.0.0-0ubuntu8.11 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. In either case, without details of your testing we will
not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

"additionally testing during SRU verification that libvirt correctly
still rejects what it should"

I can try then, but I'm not 100% sure I can easily recreate that case.
If I can then sure, if not we should not block on it IMHO as the backported 
code matches the >=Groovy behavior anyway.

MP approved for upload and subsequent SRU accept.

Given this relaxes the previous commit
https://libvirt.org/git/?p=libvirt.git;a=commit;h=3615e8b39bad, would
there be value in additionally testing during SRU verification that
libvirt correctly still rejects what it should, as well as that this bug
is fixed as you've already documented?

could add an SRU template

I'll rebase and polish it and hand it over to a team member for review then.

But what I'd still need is some written out test steps for the SRU process.
Since you have just verified it would you mind adding a statement here that I 
could copy into the SRU template then?

Hi Christian,

I've tested the patch in your [2]  ([2] below) and it worked perfectly.
I got a colleague to rebuild it for me against the current focal libvirt
[1] as I couldn't find your PPA mentioned.  I'm upgrading an OpenStack
system from bionic-ussuri -> focal-ussuri, and confirmed that the
instance wouldn't start with 6.0.0-0ubuntu8.9.  I then upgraded to
6.0.0-0ubuntu8.10.1~ubuntu20.04.1~ppa202106240958 from the PPA [1] and
the instanced started.

Is this sufficient to get it included in the focal archives?

Many thanks for your work on this.

[Bug 1906266] Re: After upgrade: "libvirt.libvirtError: Requested operation is not valid: format of backing image %s of image %s was not specified"

2021-01-05 Thread Christian Ehrhardt 
Thanks everyone, I agree that we'd want to consider this for Focals libvirt.
But there is a quite excessive series of changes in v6.0.0 -> v6.1.0 before the 
referenced change took place. So it will either be a massive backport (picking 
much more related changes to cherry-pick) or have a rather big set of 
backporting changes.

I wanted to ask if out of all your testing above there is already a simpler 
testcase that one can use without nova and all such. Just a) how to create a 
broken image + b) how to make libvirt stumble over it.
We will need this for the SRU process anyway if we want to bring it to Focal.

Also for severity - since didn't have this show up in any other place
yet I wonder how common this case would be? Any comment on that?

For the time being (while discussing) I have tried to rather "bluntly" backport 
the change.
If it builds would you be able to try this PPA [1] in your existing test 
environment?
If it works then MP [2] could be a simpler change than what I was afraid it 
could be.

Adding a task for libvirt at Ubuntu/focal since this patch[0] might need
to be backported.

It appears ubuntu bionic/focal ship with libvirt < 6.1.0, marking nova
as affected in those distribs
