[PATCH] libxl: use b_info->{acpi,acpi} when available
Posted by Marek Marczykowski-Górecki 3 years, 7 months ago
b_info->u.hvm.{acpi,apic} are deprecated. But also, on recent libxl
version (4.14) the old one seems to be broken. While libxl part should
be fixed too, update the usage here and at some point drop support for
the old version.
b_info->acpi was added in Xen 4.8
b_info->apic was added in Xen 4.10
Xen 4.10 is the oldest version that still has security support (until
December 2020).

This looks good to me.

I'll wait a bit with pushing it though in case Jim wants to chime in.

It looks fine to me, so if you want it

Reviewed-by: Jim Fehlig <jfehlig@suse.com>

On a slightly related note, it would be nice to bump the minimum supported 
LIBXL_API_VERSION in libvirt. Currently it is set to x040500. I'd like to bump 
it to 0x040800 (or perhaps higher). In fact, I have a downstream patch to do 
just that

https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/Virtualization/libvirt/suse-bump-xen-version.patch?expand=1

The problem is this API version was never advertised by libxl until Xen 4.13 
with commit c3999835df

http://xenbits.xen.org/gitweb/?p=xen.git;a=commit;h=c3999835df2d9917cf4b50be80be9a6358b1219d

We would need that commit backported to all downstream Xen packages that libvirt 
is expected to build against, which we've done at SUSE. But I can't expect that 
from all the other distros wired up to the CI. Suggestions welcome :-).

Regards,
Jim

Yeah, that's very unfortunate. I don't think I have a good answer, 
probably we have to wait until we can bump to 4.13 :-(

This broke the build on Ubuntu 1804 due to tests failing

TEST: libxlxml2domconfigtest
      .!!!!.!!!!                               10  FAIL

Oh, Ubuntu 18.04 has libxen-dev-4.9.2 and I'm not sure about FreeBSD, 
but probably something old too. So we can't use xen 4.10 APIs even 
though it was released 3 years ago.

Unfortunately, we will have to support Ubuntu 18.04 for quite some time 
because 20.04 was released only a while ago and we have this two year 
transition period:

Marek, are you okay with me reverting the patch?

Technically, the driver code itself should work on both versions (there
is an #ifdef for that). It's only an issue with tests, where we don't have
#ifdef inside json files...

One idea would be to duplicate those affected json files and pick the
right one based on the libxenlight version, but it doesn't sound nice...
Any alternative ideas?

If not, then indeed revert is the simplest solution.

I think just duplicating the JSON files is the best solution because it
is simple, low overhead and keeps test coverage in both versions.

We'll remove the duplicates a year or two down the road when we drop
older distros, so the duplication is time limited.

Daniel

I'm catching up on libvirt mail and could have missed it, but I didn't see a 
follow-up patch to fix the test.

Marek, do you have time for it? If not I'll get to it tomorrow.
