------- Comment From karupert.com 2009-08-26 17:17 EDT------- For 5.5, we would like to rebase libvirt-cim if possible, The current version is 0.5.6. This version does not require a libvirt base - it works as is with libvirt 0.6.3. libvirt-cim version 0.5.6 has the follow features we'd like to have picked up: -Storage pool creation support -Support for additional guest interface options: -Specifying NIC model type for virtual NICs -Specifying bridge type interface - Support for a list of boot devices instead of just one device This also has a corresponding libcmpiutil update - 0.5. Is there a libcmpiutil request? ------- Comment From karupert.com 2009-09-24 12:46 EDT------- A feature request wasn't filed for libcmpiutil, but there should have been. If it is possible, it would be nice to update libcmpiutil to version 0.5. This enhancement request was evaluated by the full Red Hat Enterprise Linux team for inclusion in a Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor release. As a result of this evaluation, Red Hat has tentatively approved inclusion of this feature in the next Red Hat Enterprise Linux Update minor release. While it is a goal to include this enhancement in the next minor release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the enhancement is not yet committed for inclusion in the next minor release pending the next phase of actual code integration and successful Red Hat and partner testing. ------- Comment From karupert.com 2009-11-24 11:13 EDT------- Version 0.5.7 is the current version. The tip has some patches to fixes a few connection leaks, some memory leaks, a seg fault, and a mof registration failure. It would be good if these patches could be included: Fix connection leaks: http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/44a7fbb87be6 Fix seg fault: http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/b9ee6fd16113 Mof registration failure: http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/0edafcdbee2e Fix memory leaks: http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/a804ea345a48 http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/33a6a50f64e0 It would also be great to get the ACPI, PAE, and APIC support in, but that's a new feature, not a bug fix. So it's understandable if this is left out. http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/2a194008eef8 http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/897250876e27 http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/fe05476dd71b http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/90bc60da8178 Hum, let's see, the mof registration patch http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/0edafcdbee2e is already present in 0.5.7, are you sure ti was the right patch ? The 4 others bug fixes apply well as long as the pae patch is the last one I have built libvirt-cim-0.5.7-1.el5 in dist-5E-qu-candidate with the 8 patches and an updated spec file (mostly based on Fedora). However if we have a new release of libvirt-cim soon, then it may be cleaner to push the new version keep me posted, thanks, Daniel ------- Comment From karupert.com 2009-11-25 11:07 EDT------- Ah, yes. The regression that caused the need for the MOF fix was introduced after 0.5.7. This is the patch that causes the regression: http://libvirt.org/hg/libvirt-cim/rev/3430e95189e3. Yes, I hope to do a new release fix thing next week. I'll update this defect when we get a new release out. ------- Comment From karupert.com 2009-12-03 10:45 EDT------- There was a new version of libvirt-cim released yesterday. The latest version is 0.5.8. This version contains the patches for the memory leaks, connection leaks, and new ACPI (etc) features. libvirt-cim-0.5.8-1.el5 has been built in dist-5E-qu-candidate so I'm updating to the latest version, thanks ! Daniel ------- Comment From sglass.com 2009-12-14 08:42 EDT------- In RH cvs tree moving to Acceped state same reason as I commented in https://errata.devel.redhat.com/errata/show/9171 think libvirt-cim need respin. BTW: the operating system is RHEL5.5, and current libvirt-cim version is 0.5.8-2 libvirt-cim-0.5.8-3.el5 has been built in dist-5E-qu-candidate whith the change to try to make sure schemas gets properly registered Daniel ------- Comment From karupert.com 2010-02-11 13:59 EDT------- Verified this feature in the latest RHEL 5.5 beta.
