Hello.
I've tried to compile a custom libvirt-python+virt-manager stack following these tutorials :
https://developer.ibm.com/technologi...virt-and-qemu/
https://gist.github.com/ffledgling/9...9bec3a0db35634
on my jetson nano (arm64 + ubuntu 18.04). In details,these are the steps that I did :
1) Install Git and clone both upstream libvirt and qemu repos.
Code:
git clone https://github.com/qemu/qemu.git
git clone https://github.com/libvirt/libvirt.git
2) Configure and build the qemu code and then install the qemu code. The make install command creates the binary files in the /usr/local directory.
Code:
cd qemu
mkdir -p build
cd build
../configure --prefix=/usr/local --target-list=aarch64-softmmu,arm-softmmu --enable-guest-agent --enable-vnc --enable-vnc-jpeg --enable-vnc-png --enable-kvm --enable-spice --enable-sdl --enable-gtk --enable-virglrenderer --enable-opengl
make -j
sudo make install
2.1) qemu 6.0 has been detected correctly at this poiint :
Code:
#qemu-system-aarch64 --version
QEMU emulator version 6.0.50 (v6.0.0-1145-g7258034ab4) Copyright (c) 2003-2021 Fabrice Bellard and the QEMU Project developers
3) Configure and build libvirt and then install the libvirt code. Libvirt_build contains the log and configuration files for the daemons and the qemu driver.
Code:
cd ~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt
mkdir -p libvirt_build
cd ~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt
$ meson libvirt_build
$ ninja -C libvirt_build
$ ninja -C libvirt_build install
4) Run the following commands from /root/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build directory to start the libvirt daemon (libvirtd).
Code:
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build# sudo ./run src/virtlockd & sudo ./run src/virtlogd & sudo ./run src/libvirtd
5) Here is the ouput of the virt process running in my system :
Code:
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt_build# ps axf | grep virt
30925 pts/0 S 0:00 | _ sudo ./run src/virtlockd 30929 pts/0 S 0:00 | |
_ src/virtlockd 30926 pts/0 S 0:00 |
_ sudo ./run src/virtlogd 30930 pts/0 S 0:00 |

_ sudo ./run src/virtlockd 31205 pts/0 S 0:00 |

~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build# sudo ./run tools/virsh list --all

6) Install libvirt-python next because I need to use virt-manager and that requires libvirt python bindings
Code:
CUSTOM_ROOT=/home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build
mkdir - p $CUSTOM_ROOT/src
#cp -r /root/Scrivania/Scrivania/Dati/Data/Nano/I9/Tools/virt-manager-3.2.0 /home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src/libvirt-python-7.3.0# export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$CUSTOM_ROOT/lib
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src/libvirt-python-7.3.0# export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$CUSTOM_ROOT/lib/aarch64-linux-gnu/pkgconfig
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src/libvirt-python-7.3.0# python setup.py build
~/Desktop/zi/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src/libvirt-python-7.3.0# python setup.py install --root $CUSTOM_ROOT
LOG : https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/SVHkDhXs2s/
7) Then I've installed a custom virt-manager into the same location and it should pick up the newer python bindings :
Code:
#cp -r /root/Scrivania/Scrivania/Dati/Data/Nano/I9/Tools/virt-manager-3.2.0 /home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/src
#cd virt-manager-3.2.0
#python setup.py install --root $CUSTOM_ROOT
LOG : https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/bCn5Q3yHVX/
8) Finally I put all in my $PATH :
Code:
export PATH=$CUSTOM_ROOT/bin:$PATH
export PATH=$CUSTOM_ROOT/usr/bin:$PATH
#echo $PATH
/home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/usr/bin:/home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games:/snap/bin:/home/zi/Desktop/Work:/root/Desktop/turbovnc/jtx1_remote_access >/tmp/turbovnc-build/bin/:/root/Desktop/turbovnc/jtx1_remote_access/tmp/virtualgl-build/bin/
9) Unfortunately,when I try to run virt-manager with this command,it does not work :
Code:
/home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/usr/bin# python virt-manager
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/zi/Desktop/Work/I9/libvirt/libvirt_build/usr/bin/virt-manager", line 6, in from virtManager import virt manager ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'virtManager'
Where is the mistake ? very thanks.
