Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description
Stable guest ABI doesn't check ram value of video

Version:
libvirt-1.1.1-13.el7.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Prepare a guest,set the Display as "Spice" and Video as "QXL".
2.Boot the guest.
3.Use virsh dumpxml to get the xml of the guest.
# virsh dumpxml mig > mig.xml

4.Change the ram value of video:eg:change ram from '65536' to '65535'
change xml from:
      <model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
      <alias name='video0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
    </video>
to:
      <model type='qxl' ram='65535' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
      <alias name='video0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
    </video>

5.Do migrate,no error shows.
# virsh migrate --live mig qemu+ssh://$ip/system --xml mig.xml

6.If I change vram value from xml,there is error.
# virsh migrate --live mig qemu+ssh://$ip/system --xml mig.xml
error: unsupported configuration: Target video card vram 65535 does not match source 65536

Actual results:
As step 5 describes.

Expected results:
Error shows when ram value in xml is set different with guest.
eg:error: unsupported configuration: Target video card ram 65535 does not match source 65536

Author:     Ján Tomko <jtomko>
CommitDate: 2013-12-06 15:00:16 +0100

    Add qxl ram size to ABI stability check
    
    55bfd02 added a 'ram' attribute for qxl video devices
    but didn't update the ABI check.

Comment 4 tingting zheng 2013-12-11 05:50:36 UTC
Tested PASS with:
libvirt-1.1.1-14.el7.x86_64

If I Change the ram value of video:eg:change ram from '65536' to '65535'
change xml from:
      <model type='qxl' ram='65536' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
      <alias name='video0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
    </video>
to:
      <model type='qxl' ram='65535' vram='65536' heads='1'/>
      <alias name='video0'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x02' function='0x0'/>
    </video>

Error will show when migrating with the updated xml file:
# virsh migrate --live mig qemu+ssh://10.66.5.7/system --xml mig.xml
error: unsupported configuration: Target video card ram 65535 does not match source 65536
