Bruce Ashfield 2a355647b9 libvirt: uprev to 8.1.0
Bumping libvirt to a newer version. We drop our backported patches,
update the checksums, change the meson configuration slightly and
adjust the location of the systemd manipulations.

Along with functionality changes and bugfixes, we pickup newer
python components, so we can survive the depreciation of distutils
more easily.

README libvirt: libvirtd: Facilitate using tls connection mode 2019-07-16 19:41:05 +00:00

libvirt default connection mode between client(where for example virsh runs) and server(where libvirtd runs) is tls which requires keys and certificates for certificate authority, client and server to be properly generated and deployed. Otherwise, servers and clients cannot be connected.

recipes-extended/libvirt/libvirt/gnutls-help.py is provided to help generate required keys and certificates.

Usage: gnutls-help.py [-a|--ca-info] <ca.info> [-b|--server-info] <server.info> [-c|--client-info] <client.info> If ca.info or server.info or client.info is not provided, a corresponding sample file will be generated.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! "ip_address" field of server.info must be IP address of the server. !! !! For more details, please refer to: !! !! https://libvirt.org/remote.html#Remote_certificates !! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Please deploy cacert.pem to CA and server and client /etc/pki/CA/cacert.pem Please deploy serverkey.pem to server /etc/pki/libvirt/private/serverkey.pem Please deploy servercert.pem to server /etc/pki/libvirt/servercert.pem Please deploy clientkey.pem to client /etc/pki/libvirt/private/clientkey.pem Please deploy clientcert.pem to client /etc/pki/libvirt/clientcert.pem"
