From b8aa1846a07920f56720496f1ce425a07b400614 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Daniel=20P=2E=20Berrang=C3=A9?= Date: Fri, 18 Oct 2019 15:29:47 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] docs: convert libvirtd man page from pod to rst MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This was a semi-automated conversion. First it was run through pod2rst, and then it was manually editted to use a rst structure that matches expectations of rst2man. Reviewed-by: Cole Robinson Signed-off-by: Daniel P.

This includes activities such as starting, stopping +and migrating guests between host servers, configuring and manipulating +networking, and managing storage for use by guests. + +The libvirt client libraries and utilities connect to this daemon to issue +tasks and collect information about the configuration and resources of the host +system and guests. + +By default, the libvirtd daemon listens for requests on a local Unix domain +socket. Using the ``-l`` | ``--listen`` command line option, the libvirtd daemon +can be instructed to additionally listen on a TCP/IP socket. The TCP/IP socket +to use is defined in the libvirtd configuration file. + +Restarting libvirtd does not impact running guests. Guests continue to operate +and will be picked up automatically if their XML configuration has been +defined. Any guests whose XML configuration has not been defined will be lost +from the configuration. + + +SYSTEM SOCKET ACTIVATION +======================== + +The ``libvirtd`` daemon is capable of starting in two modes. + +In the traditional mode, it will create and listen on UNIX sockets itself. +If the ``--listen`` parameter is given, it will also listen on TCP/IP socket(s), +according to the ``listen_tcp`` and ``listen_tls`` options in +``/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf`` + +In socket activation mode, it will rely on systemd to create and listen +on the UNIX, and optionally TCP/IP, sockets and pass them as pre-opened +file descriptors. In this mode, it is not permitted to pass the ``--listen`` +parameter, and most of the socket related config options in +``/etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf`` will no longer have any effect. To enable +TCP or TLS sockets use either + +:: + + $ systemctl start libvirtd-tls.socket + +Or + +:: + + $ systemctl start libvirtd-tcp.socket + +Socket activation mode is generally the default when running on a host +OS that uses systemd. To revert to the traditional mode, all the socket +unit files must be masked: + +:: + + $ systemctl mask libvirtd.socket libvirtd-ro.socket \ + libvirtd-admin.socket libvirtd-tls.socket libvirtd-tcp.socket + + +OPTIONS +======= + +``-h``, ``--help`` + +Display command line help usage then exit. + +``-d``, ``--daemon`` + +Run as a daemon & write PID file. + +``-f``, ``--config *FILE*`` + +Use this configuration file, overriding the default value. + +``-l``, ``--listen`` + +Listen for TCP/IP connections. This should not be set if using systemd +socket activation. Instead activate the libvirtd-tls.socket or +libvirtd-tcp.socket unit files. + +``-p``, ``--pid-file *FILE*`` + +Use this name for the PID file, overriding the default value. + +``-t``, ``--timeout *SECONDS*`` + +Exit after timeout period (in seconds), provided there are neither any client +connections nor any running domains. + +``-v``, ``--verbose`` + +Enable output of verbose messages. + +``--version`` + +Display version information then exit. + + +SIGNALS +======= + +On receipt of ``SIGHUP`` libvirtd will reload its configuration. + + +FILES +===== + +When run as *root* +------------------ + +* ``SYSCONFDIR/libvirt/libvirtd.conf`` + +The default configuration file used by libvirtd, unless overridden on the +command line using the ``-f`` | ``--config`` option. + +* ``RUNSTATEDIR/libvirt/libvirt-sock`` +* ``RUNSTATEDIR/libvirt/libvirt-sock-ro`` + +The sockets libvirtd will use. + +* ``SYSCONFDIR/pki/CA/cacert.pem`` + +The TLS **Certificate Authority** certificate libvirtd will use. + +* ``SYSCONFDIR/pki/libvirt/servercert.pem`` + +The TLS **Server** certificate libvirtd will use. + +* ``SYSCONFDIR/pki/libvirt/private/serverkey.pem`` + +The TLS **Server** private key libvirtd will use. + +* ``RUNSTATEDIR/libvirtd.pid`` + +The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p`` | ``--pid-file`` option. + + +When run as *non-root* +---------------------- + +* ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/libvirt/libvirtd.conf`` + +The default configuration file used by libvirtd, unless overridden on the +command line using the ``-f``|``--config`` option. + +* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/libvirt-sock`` + +The socket libvirtd will use. + +* ``$HOME/.pki/libvirt/cacert.pem`` + +The TLS **Certificate Authority** certificate libvirtd will use. + +* ``$HOME/.pki/libvirt/servercert.pem`` + +The TLS **Server** certificate libvirtd will use. + +* ``$HOME/.pki/libvirt/serverkey.pem`` + +The TLS **Server** private key libvirtd will use. + +* ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/libvirt/libvirtd.pid`` + +The PID file to use, unless overridden by the ``-p``|``--pid-file`` option. + + +If ``$XDG_CONFIG_HOME`` is not set in your environment, libvirtd will use +``$HOME/.config`` + +If ``$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR`` is not set in your environment, libvirtd will use +``$HOME/.cache`` + + +EXAMPLES +======== + +To retrieve the version of libvirtd: + +.. code-block:: shell + + # libvirtd --version + libvirtd (libvirt) 0.8.2 + + +To start libvirtd, instructing it to daemonize and create a PID file: + +.. code-block:: shell + + # libvirtd -d + # ls -la RUNSTATEDIR/libvirtd.pid + -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6 Jul 9 02:40 RUNSTATEDIR/libvirtd.pid + + +BUGS +==== + +Please report all bugs you discover.
