Some docs on the gereral use case:
- http://
- http://
Steps to reproduce:
# create basic guest
$ apt install uvtool-libvirt
$ uvt-simplestrea
$ uvt-kvm create --password=ubuntu xenial-
# By default there is (intentionally) not much a qemu process can read/write to
# To make external snapshots you have to either:
# - define some dir for the guest to snapshot to and add it to its apparmor rules
# - create the snapshot upfront qemu-img -c which will generate the rules for the backing chain
# But fortunately uvtool already sets things up just the way we need it.
# By default the root disk is a snapshot to the base cloud-image
# You can check the chain:
$ qemu-img info --backing-chain /var/lib/
# The guest lists the snapshot as it's disk
$ virsh domblklist xenial-
Target Source
-------
vda /var/lib/
# in /etc/apparmor.
# r/w to the current snapshot
"/var/lib/
# but only r to the base image
"/var/lib/
$ virsh blockcommit xenial-
Block commit: [100 %]
Successfully pivoted
root@artful-test:~# virsh domblklist xenial-
Target Source
-------
vda /var/lib/
The action added another rule:
"/var/lib/
Since today we have [1] applied this needs to be unapplied to check if this is still an issue to be fixed or if the actual addition of the second rule is new and fixes the issue completely.
Unfortunately something made libvirt an FTBFS that I have to fix first.
