Hm, could you try instead:

I can tell if streaming is enable if you provide qemu cmd line
for what is running (e.g: ps aux | grep -i qemu ...)

What do you mean with nothing works exactly?

In terms of packages, that can vary a bit due license/patent
code but as quick check, spice's autotools does checks the
following:


https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/-/blob/master/configure.ac#L93

x264enc element is in gst-plugins-ugly while vp8enc and vp9enc in
gst-plugins-good. You can check if you have each of those in the
path by running gst-inspect-1.0, eg:

$ gst-inspect-1.0 vp8enc | head
Factory Details:
  Rank primary (256)
  Long-nameOn2 VP8 Encoder
  KlassCodec/Encoder/Video
  Description  Encode VP8 video streams
  Author   David Schleef , Sebastian 
Dröge 

Plugin Details:
  Name vpx
  Description  VP8 plugin

Looking at the hook you posted earlier:

https://github.com/oVirt/vdsm/blob/master/vdsm_hooks/spiceoptions/before_vm_start.py

It needs user to provide the options and for this feature to work
streaming=filter or streaming=all must be giving to spice server
to enable streaming.

> do i need to change something on host or engine I need to

For mjpeg encoding, you don't need to change anything. For
x264/vp8 with GStreamer, spice must be built with GStreamer
option enabled. You can check if that's the case for your spice
server library by running ldd in the .so file, e.g:

 spice (master 717ed19a) $ ldd ~/dev/lib64/libspice-server.so | grep -i gst
libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 => /lib64/libgstreamer-1.0.so.0 (0x7f393b57d000)
libgstapp-1.0.so.0 => /lib64/libgstapp-1.0.so.0 (0x7f393b568000)
libgstbase-1.0.so.0 => /lib64/libgstbase-1.0.so.0 (0x7f393b0df000)

Plus, you need the plugins for encoding in your host.

> Additionally, steraming needs to hardware accelerator, all
> streaming apps or offers hardware acceletor for best performace

As mentioned earlier, the encoding parameters are hardcoded [0]
so, even if you argue that gpu is preferred, that's not currently
supported but patches are welcome!

[0] 
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/-/blob/master/server/gstreamer-encoder.c#L887

Video streaming like Youtube, you should get audio sync, lower
bandwidth, etc.

... but no, you don't need GPU in the host for this feature.
Spice streaming in the host supports two encoders: a mjepg
implementation in spice and a gstreamer one with support to
mjpeg, h264 and vp8. The encoding parameters are hardcoded but
I've tested them all in the past and worked well for youtube-like
scenarios... but feel free to open bugs upstream if not [0]

Good luck with the hook.

I'd guess that it could be some state issue in the host too.

If you are using remote-viewer + spice for usbredir, you might
consider checking the logs from the client to see channel's state
when windows freezes. Log from spice server could also say if the
issue is in the host + spice, but depending on the issue could be
usb on qemu or guest drivers /o\

If you disconnect + connect your client, any changes? Which kind
of usb device are you redirecting?

* What is the version of spice server running on the host?
* Which device/drivers are you using?

The driver for Windows 8+, including Windows 10 should be the
qxl-wddm-dod [0][1] one. The changelog [2] for the latest
version, 0.19, includes the line "Improve performance vs spice
server 14.0 and earlier".

It can help a bit if you add --spice-debug command line argument
to remote-viewer and share those logs.

The copy, like drag, those are features that rely on
spice-vdagent, not QXL.

I assume that spice-vdagent and spice-vdagentd are running
without errors in your CentOS 6 box? If that's the case, you can
share some logs from the client remote-viewer or virt-viewer
--debug --spice-debug.

I'm not familiar with oVirt interface but it shouldn't be hard if
you have access to the host.

For playing video use-cases (youtube) it might be okay but not
for playing games as it has some hard coded delay in the
streaming code path.

The streaming is mjpeg so you don't save much bandwidth either.

AFAIK, if virsh edit exits without issue, you need to shutdown
the vm and then start it again. Reboot is not enough.

The easiest path is to get the source from your current rpm,
apply the patch mentioned in previous email, build, install,
test.

If that does not work you can rollback. If works, you can rethink
what is best.

You can fetch the release of 0.14.1 version at
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/tags

You can fetch an rpm from Fedora here
https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1138474

Just for reference, the patch in spice-server that should help is
from the mail thread 

https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2018-June/044237.html

Merged as


https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/spice/spice/commit/ca4984570f425e87e92abe5f62f9687bb55c1e14

Looking at the repo with git tag --contains ca4984570f425e87e92
it shows v0.14.1.

0.14.0-2 probably does not contain that. Either update to 0.14.1
or backport the patch. It does need to shutdown and start the VM
again.

I hope it helps ;)

Hi,

See,

https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/spice-devel/2018-October/046023.html

So, update your spice-server too (host).

What do you get when you try to connect with remote-viewer?

AFAIK, ovirt://$engine/$vm should work but you might need to
explicit point to the certificates with extra command line
arguments; plus, some configurations might not work indeed,
see

Looks like a bug or bad configuration between host/guest. Let's

From the logs of second email:

 | [3.201725] [drm] Initialized qxl 0.1.0 20120117 for :00:02.0 on 
minor 0

Quite old qxl? Would it be possible to update it? 0.1.5 was
released in 2016-12-19 [0], that's almost 5 years of bugfixing,
etc.

Maybe just updating the qxl would solve the issue but which
configuration you have set in regards to memory for qxl?

I see in the logs

 | [3.163127] [drm] qxl: 16M of VRAM memory size
 | [3.163127] [drm] qxl: 63M of IO pages memory ready (VRAM domain)
 | [3.163128] [drm] qxl: 32M of Surface memory size

Not sure if driver is using UMS (old) or KMS mode on Debian...

[ovirt-users] Re: drag file from local machine to vm

2018-11-21 Thread Victor Toso

Hi,

If you are using windows client, you need UsbDk installed.

https://www.spice-space.org/download.html

You can run remote-viewer from console with --spice-debug option
in order to check what is wrong. Feel free to post the log here.

Cheers,

The drag-and-drop support is only from Local machine to VM.
Remote-viewer copies the file and send it to the spice-vdagent
(guest agent).

> Maybe something else need to do?

Nothing can be done for this feature at this moment.

You can try another feature, shared folder, which uses WebDAV.
Look for 'Folder sharing' at

https://www.spice-space.org/spice-user-manual.html

> By the way,I also want to use USB-redirect function,But I found

That could happen for different reasons.
- Is your client running on windows or linux machine?
- Is the VM configured for USB? Look for 'USB redirection' in the
  link above.

Victor

Not sure but perhaps you should be using qxl-wddm-dod driver for
Windows 10?

I think that's not the one included in spice-guest-tools so you'd
need to download and install it from download in the Windows
binaries section at, 
https://www.spice-space.org/download.html

Let me know if that helps.

You could try enabling the streaming mode, disabled by default in el7
due different issues (see [0])

[0] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1294564

To enable the streaming mode, you should include that inside the
graphics node, see mine bellow for an example. Options are 'off', 'all'
and 'filter'.
