    conf: Rename life cycle actions to event actions
    
    While current on_{poweroff,reboot,crash} action configuration is about
    configuring life cycle actions, they can all be considered events and
    actions that need to be done on a particular event. Let's generalize the
    code by renaming life cycle actions to event actions so that it can be
    reused later for non-lifecycle events.

    conf: Add on_lockfailure event configuration
    
    Using this new element, one can configure an action that should be
    performed when resource locks are lost.

    locking: Pass hypervisor driver name when acquiring locks
    
    This is required in case a lock manager needs to contact libvirtd in
    case of an unexpected event.

    locking: Add support for lock failure action

commit 893647671b052cba67f2241bb910df56f3191f2e
Author: Jiri Denemark <jdenemar>
Date:   Tue Sep 18 13:41:26 2012 +0200

    locking: Implement lock failure action in sanlock driver
    
    While the changes to sanlock driver should be stable, the actual
    implementation of sanlock_helper is supposed to be replaced in the
    future. However, before we can implement a better sanlock_helper, we
    need an administrative interface to libvirtd so that the helper can just
    pass a "leases lost" event to the particular libvirt driver and
    everything else will be taken care of internally. This approach will
    also allow libvirt to pass such event to applications and use
    appropriate reasons when changing domain states.
    
    The temporary implementation handles all actions directly by calling
    appropriate libvirt APIs (which among other things means that it needs
    to know the credentials required to connect to libvirtd).

Hi Jiri,
Unfortunately, the new sanlock feature doesn't work on libvirt-0.10.2-4.el6 for me, I can't succesfully start guest with new lock configuration, the following is my test steps:


1. configure sanlock

# tail -1 /etc/libvirt/qemu.conf
lock_manager = "sanlock"

# tail -3 /etc/libvirt/qemu-sanlock.conf
disk_lease_dir = "/var/lib/libvirt/sanlock"
host_id = 1
auto_disk_leases = 1

# service libvirtd restart
Stopping libvirtd daemon:                                  [  OK  ]
Starting libvirtd daemon:                                  [  OK  ]

# ll -Z /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/
total 1028
-rw-------. root root unconfined_u:object_r:virt_var_lib_t:s0 __LIBVIRT__DISKS__


2. append <on_lockfailure>ignore</on_lockfailure> into guest XML

# virsh dumpxml foo
<domain type='kvm'>
  <name>foo</name>
  <uuid>cae86633-904f-1c90-6bc4-9c579f70e699</uuid>

      <target dev='hda' bus='virtio'/>
      <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x06' function='0x0'/>
    </disk>
    ......         <--- ignore
  </devices>
</domain>


3. start the guest

# virsh start foo-2
error: Failed to start domain foo-2
error: Child quit during startup handshake: Input/output error

# ll -Z /var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/
-rw-------. root root unconfined_u:object_r:virt_var_lib_t:s0 63170d7446adfb743772450ffb7a6af3
-rw-------. root root unconfined_u:object_r:virt_var_lib_t:s0 __LIBVIRT__DISKS__


4. check libvirtd.log

2012-10-18 07:46:30.314+0000: 1555: error : virCommandHandshakeWait:2528 : Child quit during startup handshake: Input/output error


Please help confirm this question, thx.

Alex

Interesting, I can't reproduce your error. What version of sanlock do you have installed? Could you attach more context of the error from libvirtd.log and the domain's log file found in /var/log/libvirt/qemu/foo-2.log? Also, please check /var/log/messages if there's anything from sanlock at the time you're trying to start the domain.

(In reply to comment #7)

Oh, I forgot to add them.

# rpm -q libvirt-lock-sanlock sanlock
libvirt-lock-sanlock-0.10.2-4.el6.x86_64
sanlock-2.6-1.el6.x86_64

Notes, here is a old sanlock configuration.


2. use new default sanlock configration

# virsh list --all

# virsh domstate myRHEL6
shut off

Notes, it should be a new question, I just append ' <on_lockfailure>ignore</on_lockfailure>' to foo gust then restart sanlock service after failing to start foo, however, a pervious running guest myRHEL6 is stopped, for details, please see libvirtd-2.log.

In addition, I saw some sanlock error and AVC denied in /var/log/messages, and I have ever filed some selinux bugs(831908)  on sanlock, maybe, I should upgrade the following selinux version to >=3.7.19-155.el6_3.4, but even so, libvirt shouldn't be dead, for details, please check messages log.

My current selinux version:

# rpm -qa|grep selinux-policy

Oh, it looks like you hit bug 820173. Could you modify /etc/sysconfig/sanlock
to contain:

    SANLOCKUSER="root"
    SANLOCKOPTS="-w 0"

and try again after restarting sanlock service? However, even if the features
appears to be working after that, don't verify this bug since we need to check
it is working in the default configuration.

Yeah, as you said, although this configuration works for us, but it can't verify this bug, because default configuration doesn't work.

Will there be another patch for the default configuration of this bug ?

Well, the non-default configuration was just a workaround allowing this bug to be tested until bug 820173 is fixed. I believe, this should now work even without changing /etc/sysconfig/sanlock.

Hi Jiri,

Bug 820173 was verified with libvirtd die finally according to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=820173#c54 .
Then how should we handle this one ?

Well, since bug 820173 is verified, it should mean libvirt works with sanlock in normal case, shouldn't it? That is, if you start with a clean state, start libvirtd, let it do the job without restarting it too early, it should work fine and thus you should be able to test this bug. If this is however not the case, I don't understand, why that bug was verified.

Hi Jiri,

With verified 820173 , i'm tring verify this one , but some isuees  block me..
BTW , now , everything is ok , libvirtd works well , both the lease file and __LIBVIRT__DISKS__ generated success and the guest start well.

How to make sanlock_helper run?
I noticed that it recive  parameters as a independt program , my questions is how to pass the parameters to it and run . 
What i do is config sanlock , start guest with <on_lockfailure> element and delete the lease files .Then if sanlock_helper runs , it should log some errors if the config not right or just excute the on_lockfailure evernt.

Could you tell me anything i missed ? Thanks.

sanlock_helper is run by sanlock daemon whenever it thinks disk leases are lost. When libvirtd is starting a new domain, it tells sanlockd what parameters to use for sanlock_helper according to domain's on_lockfailure configuration.

That is, you just need to configure on_lockfailure and make sanlockd think it lost the leases:

- "sanlock client status" command can be used to list active lockspaces (they start with "s" prefix)
- "sanlock client rem_lockspace -s <lockspace>" command can be used to manually remove the lockspace

If you need further assistance with how to make this working, Federico Simoncelli knows much more about this stuff (and how vdsm wants to use it) than I do.

Anyway, some of the the on_lockfailure actions are known not to work with automatic disk leases, you need to configure them manually in domain XML (which is how VDSM is going to use this).

Ah..Jiri..i test both auto and mannul way , still got the same issue like mentioned in the mail.Any sussesgion? 

qemu-sanlock.conf //close auto leases
auto_disk_leases = 0

1. <on_lockfailure>ignore</on_lockfailure>
#sanlock client status

</lease>

Then
# sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0
rem_lockspace
//It will hang here

2.<on_lockfailure>restart</on_lockfailure>

What hangs here?

Does anything appear in /var/log/libvirtd.log that would be an evidence of
sanlock_helper connecting to libvirtd and restarting the domain?

Is anything logged by sanlockd to /var/log/messages?

Well , normally the command is like 
# sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0
rem_lockspace
rem_lockspace done 0
#

After add the ignore event , it become

# sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0
rem_lockspace
              //Just stop here 

But if destroy the guest in another terminal ,then the rem_lockspace will finished.

# sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0
rem_lockspace
              //stopped untill destroy guest in another terminal
              //virsh destroy test , then it continue output
rem_lockspace done 0

One more thing here , if i do

cancel/*ctrl + c*/ the rem_lockspace ps when it hang , then destroy the guest and start  it , the guest will fail to start with a error "No space left on device"

# sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0
rem_lockspace
^C
#virsh destroy test
#virsh start test
error: Failed to start domain test
error: Failed to acquire lock: No space left on device

It depends on how much you waited. The regular timeout is about 3 minutes.
Please also check what is logged in the sanlock log (/var/log/sanlock/sanlock.log).

There are some issue in mannul config lockspace , i always get an error -19 when add , i'm researching it.Any update  will comment here.
For <ignore> and auto lease , i still wait 12m and cancel it.Sanlock log is same like i comment before.

Have you tried to temporarily disable selinux? (setenforce 0)

> Have you tried to temporarily disable selinux? (setenforce 0)

Yeah , i tried , but it doesn't work...And audit.log doesn't have something related it.
BTW i made a mistake when config a sanlock lockspace , now it works..

This is the record last night
# time sanlock client rem_lockspace -s TEST_LS:1:var/lib/libvirt/sanlock/TEST_LS:0

During the "hang time" , libvirtd shows it repeat same procedure again and again. 
Any sussgesion? Jiri && Federico , thanks

Created attachment 679298 [details]
full hang log

Any sussesgion  , Federico ? Thanks

The on_lockfailure policies to check are:

poweroff
========
If I understand correctly this is currently working. The vm is shutdown.

restart
=======
I don't think we'll ever see this working with sanlock. Once you removed the lockspace you're not able to start the VM. Anyway this depends on the implementation of "restart", if libvirt is actually killing/shutting-down the qemu process, then my assumption is correct. If the restart is handled in some way so that the qemu process remains the same then this would appear (in sanlock view) as an "ignore" (see below).

pause
=====
If I understand correctly this is currently working. The vm is paused and the sanlock resource is released (double check this).

ignore
======
This is not supposed to work with sanlock. If the qemu process is ignoring the request and it's not releasing the resources then sanlock should escalate to kill, kill -9 and eventually rebooting the host.

For what I saw the escalation is not happening on the sanlock side. David, do you want to take a look? Thanks.

Yes, as requested in the bug description, libvirt kills the process and tries to start it again.

Sorry I couldn't follow all the discussion above very well, so I'll probably repeat some obvious background to make sure that we're all expecting the same things.

pause
-----
You need to pass sanlock the path to a kill script/program that sanlock will run against the vm when the lock fails.  In the libvirt case we expect this program to result in the following (probably done within libvirtd):
1. pause/suspend the vm
2. inquire and save the lease state from sanlock
3. release the sanlock leases for the vm

When the sanlock daemon sees that the leases are gone, it will no longer trigger the watchdog reset.

ignore
------
You should not set killpath if you don't want sanlock to use it.  In this case, sanlock will use SIGTERM and SIGKILL against the vm when its lock fails.  If the pid does not exit from either of those, then the host will be reset by the watchdog.  If this is not happening, could you run "sanlock client log_dump > log.txt" and send that to me?


Finally, I'm not sure what rem_lockspace is being used for above; it should probably not be used to test lock failure.  The way I usually simulate lock failures is by using dmsetup to load the error target under the leases lv.

I think that we have a misconception here, the "ignore" policy was implemented (Jiri correct me if I'm wrong) "ignoring" the fact that sanlock is requesting to release the resource. In this situation sanlock should escalate anyway ("ignore" == forced reboot in the sanlock implementation).

Actually let me correct myself, "ignore" == vm is abruptly killed (and eventually we might escalate to the reboot).

The first problem is as I mentioned above: rem_lockspace is not equivalent to a failed lock, and should not be used to test that. (This does reveal a possible problem with a forced rem_lockspace, though, which I will look into.)

There might also be a problem with the killpath program because the the lease is not removed or the pid does not exit.  We'd expect one of those results from running killpath.  (If the lockspace had actually failed, then sanlock would have escalated when the killpath did not do anything.)

After talked with Jiri in irc , i verify this bug as  the action "power off" and "pause" work well.

For other two actions:
Ignore : will lead to sanlock stuck
Restart : Can shutdown successfuly but fail to start again.
I will create two bugs respectively to track them on 6.5

Thanks your help David , Federico and Jiri.

I create two bugs and re-write the steps  , anything miss or any mistake i made please correct me

Bug 905280 Lockfailure action Ignore will lead to sanlock rem_lockspace stuck
Bug 905282 - Lockfailure action Restart can shutdown the guest but fail to start it

I think David already has a fix for this.

I don't think there's a way to fix this. It's probably NOTABUG.

Not really, libvirt should at least refuse to create a domain with restart lockfailure action if sanlock is used as the lock manager. In case it can't be fixed of course. But anyway, let's move further discussion to the new bugs.

Since the problem described in this bug report should be
resolved in a recent advisory, it has been closed with a
resolution of ERRATA.
