Add a simple qemu guest agent package
We don't actually build it here, we just use the alpine package, which is
already included in the linuxkit/alpine base.
Can be instantiated with a service stanza such as:
- name: qemu-ga
image: "linuxkit/qemu-ga:e5fbcf55926f6e1a96b3e49a392e547e8be1022c"
binds:
- /dev/vport0p1:/dev/vport0p1
The only functionality I've tested is to report IP addresses to the host (e.g.
via `virsh domifaddr`).
The image is configured to use `/dev/vport0p1` by default. If your VM image is
using a different port number then you can either incorporate the rename into
the bind ("/dev/vport1p1:/dev/vport0p1") or override the command with:
command: ["/usr/bin/qemu-ga", "-p", "/dev/vport1p1"]
The mdev tool appears to not create the symlinks which udev would provide
`/dev/virtio-ports/org.qemu.guest_agent.0` hence the need to hardcode the
potentially unstable `/dev/vportNp1`, `N` seems to depend on the number and
order of virtio devices in use. I don't know if it is possible to get mdev to
create these links. For reference the udev rule is:
SUBSYSTEM=="virtio-ports", KERNEL=="vport*", ATTR{name}=="?*", SYMLINK+="virtio-ports/$attr{name}"
See https://wiki.libvirt.org/page/Qemu_guest_agent for more info on the guest
agent.
A suitable stanza is added to `projects/swarmd/swarmd.yml` since that is where
I am using it.
