[PATCH] util/qemu-error: prepend guest name to error message to identify affected VM owner |
Date: |
Fri, 26 Jun 2020 13:19:00 -0700 |
This is followup patch to the one submitted back in Oct, 19
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2019-10/msg02102.html
My mistake here, I took my eyes of the mailing list after I got the
initial thumbs up. This patch follows up on Markus comments in the
above link.
Purpose of this patch:
We want to print guest name for errors, warnings and info messages. This
was the first of two patches the second being MCE errors targeting a VM
with guest name prepended. But in a large fleet we see many other
errors that disable a VM or crash it. In a large fleet and centralized
logging having the guest name enables identify of owner and customer.

Test verification summary:
a) qemu-system-x86_64 -msg help
guest-name=<bool (on/off)> - Prepends guest name for error messages but only
if -name <guestname> is set otherwise option is ignored
timestamp=<bool (on/off)>
b) qemu-system-x86_64 -help
-msg [timestamp[=on|off]][,guest-name=[on|off]]
control error message format
timestamp=on enables timestamps (default: off)
guest-name=on enables guest name prefix but only if
-name guest option is set (default: off)
c) man qemu
-msg [timestamp[=on|off]][,guest-name[=on|off]]
Control error message format.
timestamp=on|off
Prefix messages with a timestamp. Default is off.
guest-name=on|off
Prefix messages with guest name but only if -name guest
option is set otherwise the option is ignored. Default is
off.
d) command options
