[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 0/2] qemu-ga: add hook to quiesce the guest on fsfreeze-freeze/thaw

[Tomoki Sekiyama]

Hi,

This is version 6 of the qemu-ga fsfreeze hook patchset.

*Changes from v5:
 patch 1/3 and 3/3 are squashed.

*Changes from v4: ( http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/200924/ )
 1/2: Improve error messages based on Luiz Capitulino's patchset.
      Make fsfreeze-hook disabled by default, and enabled only if
      --fsfreeze-hook option is specified.
 2/2: Add exit 0 at the last of the sample script.
      Add check for presence of mysql in mysql-flush.sh.

This patchset depends on Luiz Capitulino's patchset to improve error
handling, which is available at:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2012-11/msg03016.html

Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v6 1/2] qemu-ga: execute hook to quiesce the guest on fsfreeze-freeze/thaw

[Tomoki Sekiyama]

To use the online disk snapshot for online-backup, application-level
consistency of the snapshot image is required. However, currently the
guest agent can provide only filesystem-level consistency, and the
snapshot may contain dirty data, for example, incomplete transactions.
This patch provides the opportunity to quiesce applications before
snapshot is taken.

If --fsfreeze-hook option is specified, the hook is executed with
"freeze" argument before the filesystem is frozen by fsfreeze-freeze
command. As for fsfreeze-thaw command, the hook is executed with "thaw"
argument after the filesystem is thawed.

This patch depends on patchset to improve error reporting by Luiz Capitulino:

Please, change this to something like:

  error_setg_errno(err, errno, "can't access hook script '%s'", hook);

Otherwise we'll get error messages like:

 { "error": {
   "class": "GenericError",
   "desc": "fsfreeze hook '/usr/local/etc/qemu/fsfreeze-hook' is not executable: No such file or directory" } }

Otherwise this patch looks good now.

The script you introduce is called fsfreeze-hook.d.sample. If it's expected
that people really use these two scripts (vs. doc purposes only) I suggest
the following:

 1. Move these files to scripts/
 2. Drop the .sample suffix

It is good for "fsfreeze-hook". But as for "mysql-flush.sh", users may
need to configure authentication etc. if their environments are with
non-default setup (by edditing either the script or ~/.my.cnf file).

So, I'd like to (1)move these files to scripts/, but (2)reamin .sample
suffix to indicate that users may need to modify the script.
How do you think?

You could add the '.sample' suffix to the mysql script and add that
suffix to is_ignored_file().

Okey, I will try this in the next version.
(It seems Makefile also needs a patch to treat directry named "*.d".)
