This makes it easier for people to change install media afterwards
if they want:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1508377
But also this makes it more clear that if users want to use virtio-win,
they need to add an additional CDROM and not try to reuse the install
CDROM device
Now we have only one Installer class, and callers don't need to
worry about choosing a particular class type depending on their
needs, just pass cdrom vs. location to the installer init and
we figure out everything behind the scenes.
Besides simplifying the callers this makes the control flow a
lot easier to follow whether looking at InstallerTreeMedia or
Installer classes
With another fake iso, based on stripped down centos 6.5 boot iso.
Reason we do centos 6.5 is that everything newer also compares
on volume size, and we don't want to store a huge iso in git.
virt-install -n blah -r 1024 --vcpu=1 --disk=/root/vm/blah.qcow2,size=10\
--network=bridge:br-public --pxe --boot=network,rebootTimeout=3
By default, in case of (first) pxe boot failure the VM will simply
stop trying.
By adding the above, VM will re-try pxe boot. ( useful when DHCP not
replys on first attempt.
Libvirt support it and VM XML will look as follow : ( 'bios rebootTimeout'
will be created under OS section. )
<os>
<type arch='x86_64' machine='pc-i440fx-rhel7.5.0'>hvm</type>
<boot dev='network'/>
<bios rebootTimeout='3'/>
</os>
(crobinso: fix it, add test case)
On first run of the app we will check to see if libvirt and qemu
are installed, and if not, offer to install them. In theory anyways.
In practice this stuff breaks repeatedly and is a pain to test because
every desktop has their own API provider with subtly different behavior.
My last round of testing about 12 months ago: apper on KDE was completely
busted and apparently unmaintained (although that may have changed lately),
gnome-software is the latest packagekit provider on gnome and completely
changes the semantics of the API compared to old style gnome-packagekit
that break a lot of virt-manager assumptions.
So I'm tired of it and want it all gone. Still use systemd to try and
check if libvirtd is running, and provide error messages at startup
to guide people.
The new UI is handled in mediacombo. It's a combobox+entry. The
combobox is prepopulated with host cdrom/floppy devices, and
previously used media paths from gsettings
The new VM wizard no longer has separate UI for cdrom device vs
ISO media. The choosecd dialog is gone all together, and media
is changed with the 'apply' button like all other details changes
Allow to set some memory backing options, ex:
--memorybacking access_mode=shared,source_type=anonymous

This is just a big nasty commit.
Turn the OS inspection page into an always available page that
shows the libosinfo name from the domain metadata XML. Use oslist.py
and have it absorb more of the common behavior needed by create.py
and details.py. Add UI tests for it all
libvirt will use rtl8139, but the qemu default changed a while
ago to e1000, and libvirt has diverged. e1000 is more modern and
considered the better default here, so use it
Don't rely on libvirt's default. This makes any XML changes more
explicit, and can help other parts of the code that may depend on
a machine type being encoded
Rather than forcing API users to go through the capabilities APIs.
This lets us simplify things in virt-install quite a bit, and is
needed for smarter machine type defaults
I know openstack uses tcp consoles but for end users I've never
really heard about it. RHEL compiles out udp as well. I'm fine telling
users to go to the cli and use virt-xml for this use case.
Use this opportunity to drop a lot of code that only simplified the
case when there are tons of char options we need to consider
This changes all the callers to invoke start_install directly on the
Installer object. We still stash the installer instance inside the
guest object in create.py, just for simplicity
On KDE the testManagerWindowCleanup test clicks right on the border and
the drag operation fails, bringing down the test. Clicking a bit lower
fixes this issue.

This approach is used in majority of other places and allows the
combobox items to be selected directly instead of typing text in tests.

We shouldn't concern ourselves with whether the OS supports qemu_ga
out of the box, just set up the channel regardless, as long as
virtio-serial is supported.
This adds the channel for some aarch64 cases which didn't have OS
specified, but that's desired IMO
- Remove anything for less than qemu 0.12 or libvirt 0.10, basically
rhel6 vintage stuff
- Open code some simple checks
- Remove some that are only used for unnecessary error reporting
This case will still work, but be a bit slower, which is fine. Nowadays
-M virt is much better for virt usage and nearly everyone is using that,
so save us the complication. This was really only useful when
bootstrapping arm virt support
Let libvirt/libxl fill it in. This was required for rhel5 xen at
least, but we don't support that anymore and modern libvirt seems
to do the right thing and fill it in for us.
The validation is already handled by libvirt, and setting q35 for
smm=on is overkill and just hardcoding some libvirt logic here.
I think the 'secboot' detection in Guest.py is the preferred
magic here, otherwise let users specify all the correct values.
An emulated backend doesn't require any path, since libvirt will take
care of finding the emulator and managing the storage. However, the
version to emulate can be specified.

Add codec support to virt-install so that it can accommodate
multiple instances of codec configuration.
The commandline argument:
--sound codec0.type=micro,codec1.type=duplex,codec2.type=output
maps to the sound XML below:
<sound model="es1370">
<codec type="micro"/>
<codec type="duplex"/>
<codec type="output"/>
</sound>

This type of validation should really be done at the libvirt level,
particularly for a non-mandatory feature like cpuset. Otherwise
it's just more code for us to test which will rarely be hit by users
The current OS distro selection UI is fairly cumbersome to use. First
you need to decide on a variant, then decide a distro and then look for
the version you want. The list is filtered by default so only a subset
of OS are displayed. So for less common distros you'll then need to
start again and tell it to show all OS to try to find the one you want.
The core problem is that we have an incredibly large list and want to
make it easy for the user to find a specific entry. The modern UI
paradigm for this problem is to provide interactive search with
live updated results. The current UI does provide an interactive search
facility on the OS version results, but you still have to first select a
variant to be able to use the search which is unhelpful.
This patch attempts to better apply the search UI design to the OS selection
problem. We get rid of the notion of variants, distros and version, and
provide a single text entry box in which the user can type a few letters
of the OS name. As they type, a popover displays the matching results
filtered on OS name. By default end of life OS will be hidden, so in
general there will only be a small handful of results left after just
typing a few characters. This makes it very quick to find and select the
desired OS, without needing to provide a mutli-step navigation hierarchy.

set the guest's CPU model to None.
