RFC - Guest memory usage
by Daniel Henrique Barboza
I was looking at the following item in the backlog:
Guests Stats: Display memory utilization (use virt-df or virt-top or ...)
If I understood it right, the idea here is to show the -inner- memory
allocation of the guest. If you have a VM with 4Gb of RAM running an
Ubuntu, we want to know how much memory the Ubuntu OS and its processes
are using.
I've done an investigation and I haven't found any tool to accomplish
this. "virt-top", "virsh dommemstat" and the libvirt API retrieves the
information of the memory usage of the guest relative to the host. In
the example mentioned before, supposing that the host has 64Gb of RAM,
all these tools would show that the VM is using 12% of the host RAM.
They do not dive in the VM and shows the actual mem usage of the Ubuntu
and its processes running there.
Haven't found anything useful in other MLs and forums. The common answer
is 'run top in a terminal inside the VM', which of course does not suit
us. My question is: any thoughts about how we can implement this
feature? Because I am starting to think that, in the end, this kind of
info is strict to the guest OS and can't be polled from the outside.
Thanks!

[RFC] Split Kimchi into Base Framework and Virtualization layers
by Lucio Correia
Hi,
Gustavo (on cc) and me have been analyzing how to split Kimchi
Virtualization layer form its Base web framework. We would like to
leverage all infrastructure kimchi base framework provides (URI routing,
error handling, i18n, authentication, API validation, plugin tabs
loading) in other projects, and contribute this back to kimchi-ginger
project.
The general idea for the web framework is that it provides basic UI with
login and tabs menu, and each plugin installed extends the menu with
some tabs.
We started by making kimchi a plugin, like ginger is. We are way
advanced on that and already have most of kimchi's UI running as a
plugin over an almost fully running base web framework.
Ginger needs minimal changes, mainly on import statements. We can
provide changes needed back to ginger too.
Currently, we are splitting kimchi specific stuff like this way: (after
renaming the dir src/kimchi to src/backend *)
* we are using the name "backend" just for disambiguation from
virtualization layer (plugins/kimchi). We will need to define a better
name for that basic framework. One suggestion is to call it "wok", the
base where kimchi is cooked.

[kimchi-devel][PATCHv4 0/7] Upload storage volume
by lvroyce＠linux.vnet.ibm.com
From: Royce Lv <lvroyce(a)linux.vnet.ibm.com>
How to upload:
POST /storagepools/<pool-name>/storagevolumes/
{'capacity':size-of-the-volume,'name':name-of-the-volume,'format':'raw'}
PUT /storagepools/<pool-name>/storagevolumes/<volume-name>
{'chunk':chunk-data,'chunk_size':size-of-chunk,'index':index-of-the-chunk-of-uploaded-file}
PATCH 7/7 is a script against real model server,
you can use it to verify the logic of upload.
Royce Lv (7):
Update docs and json schema of storage volume upload
Update controller to make update accept formdata params
Add lock facility for storage volume upload
Update model for storage volume update
Fix incomplete record when uploading
update test case for storage volume upload
A test script against real model server

[PATCH v2] Supress error messages while checking vm metadata
by Ramon Medeiros
Changes
v2: Use parse functions present on model/utils.py
The function FeatureTests.disable_libvirt_error_logging only removes the
error message that will be displayed on the console. Libvirt also logs
errors on messages log. To avoid flood messages log with metadata
errors, it will be verified manually if the xml has the tag.

[PATCH] Do not resolve hostname to IP in using remote ISOs
by Aline Manera
Due a limitation in old versions of qemu-io (qemu-io was not able to resolve
hostnames preveting the ISO streaming support), Kimchi automatically
resolved the hostname to IP to workaround this problem.
As all the most used Linux distributions (RHEl7.1, Ubuntu 14.10, Fedora
21 and openSUSE 13.2) have a working version of qemu-io, Kimchi does not
need to care about it anymore.
It also fixes the issue #436
