Subject: [PATCH 0 of 5] Improvements to libxl VIF hotplug, unplug; xapi can now use these functions
Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2011 13:26:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <patchbomb.1301315194@ely> (raw)
Improvements to libxl VIF hotplug/unplug; xapi can now use these functions
This patch set includes:
1. addition of VIF QoS parameters to libxl (this code is ported from xapi/
xenops)
2. updates to the libxl ocaml bindings to use the new parameters
3. bugfixes to the "xl network-attach" command so the QoS settings can be
more easily tested.
FYI the corresponding xapi changes are in a branch here:
https://github.com/djs55/xen-api/tree/hackathon
The only code which remains in the xapi VIF hotplug/unplug paths concerns
ethtool settings for VIFs. This could be ported separately if desired.
xapi used to have code for setting the device "protocol" field in xenstore,
depending on the PV kernel architecture. According to IanC, this was always
unnecessary for netback so it has been removed from xapi (and not added to
libxl)
This was all work done last week at the xen hackathon. Comments, criticism
etc. are welcome!
