Description zhpeng 2012-02-28 06:24:21 EST
Description of problem:
can't start guest with spice

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.32-232.el6.x86_64
libvirt-python-0.9.10-3.el6.x86_64
libvirt-0.9.10-3.el6.x86_64
libvirt-client-0.9.10-3.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-tools-0.12.1.2-2.233.el6.x86_64
qemu-img-0.12.1.2-2.233.el6.x86_64
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.233.el6.x86_64
spice-server-0.10.1-1.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.define a guest:
...
     <graphics type='spice' autoport='yes' listen='127.0.0.1'>
      <listen type='address' address='127.0.0.1'/>
    </graphics>
...

2.try to start guest
# virsh start kvm1
error: internal error Process exited while reading console log output: char device redirected to /dev/pts/5
spice tls-port is out of range

[root@pengzhimoutest ~]# tail /var/log/libvirt/qemu/kvm1.log

char device redirected to /dev/pts/1
spice tls-port is out of range2012-02-28 03:17:09.365+0000: shutting down



Actual resultes:
Fail to start
-spice port=5900,tls-port=4294967295,addr=127.0.0.1 tlsport is too big

Expected results:
Spice can work, guest can be start

Comment 2 Dave Allan 2012-02-28 10:24:20 EST
Just a SWAG, but it looks to me like the XML isn't quite correct and we're using -1 as the port.
Comment 3 Michal Privoznik 2012-02-28 11:18:30 EST
Dave, you're right. It's regression introduced in fix for 790436; Long story short - we are missing curly braces around one block adding tls-port to the qemu command line. Patch proposed upstream:

2.try to start guest
# virsh start $guestname
no error display, the guest can start successful.
use virt-viewer can open guest graphic console
