libvirt-0.10.2-29.9.0.1.AXS4

Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). The main package includes the libvirtd server exporting the virtualization support.

Security issues fixed with this release:

CVE-2014-0179 No description available at the time of writing, please refer to the CVE link below

Fixed bugs:

• Previously, libvirt crashed when reading the CPU pinning information after unpluggin a virtual CPU. This has been fixed.

• Previously, when setting QoS on a netowrk interface controller, libvirt passed an incorrect argument to the "tc" command, resulting in QoS being applied only to IP traffic. This has been fixed.

• Previously, libvirt expected all QEMU domains to be registered with sanlock when sanlock was used for managing access to shared storage. Sometimes, if a QEMU domain was started before enabling sanlock, the domain was not registered with sanlock. In such cases, migrating a virtual machine from such a QEMU domain failed with a libvirt error. This has been fixed: libvirt now checks if QEMU domains are registered with sanlock before starting to work.

• Previously, if there was an error during the migration of a QEMU domain, the libvirt API failed to properly cancel the process, leaving the guest CPUs in pause. This has been fixed.

• Previously, if a QEMU monitor could not get the migration status from a QEMU monitor within 30 seconds, the libvirt API canceled the migration. If a user queried some data from QEMU during a migration, the query timed out and libvirt canceled the migration. As a workaround, users should ignore the time-out error and try querying again, which no longer cancels the migration.

• Previously, if a host device was located on a PCI bus whose domain was different from "0", it could not be assigned to a virtual guest using PCI passthrough. This limitation has been removed,which fixes this bug.
