[PATCH v2 0/2] v2v: Add -it vddk and -it ssh flags.
The first patch was previously posted here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-December/msg00018.html
That patch hasn't changed except that I made the ‘input_transport’
variable type-safe.
The second patch adds a significant new mode for liberating data from
VMware: the ability to copy VMs over SSH directly from ESXi
hypervisors. Although this requires enabling SSH access (a

[PATCH 00/11] v2v: Change virt-v2v to use nbdkit for input in several modes.
This series (except the last one) changes virt-v2v to use nbdkit for
several input modes:
-i vmx -it vddk: No change in functionality, as this already uses
nbdkit-vddk-plugin, but the code is refactored for the other modes to
use.
-i libvirtxml: Use nbdkit-curl-plugin instead of qemu curl.
vCenter: Use nbdkit-curl-plugin instead of qemu curl.
xen: Use nbdkit-ssh-plugin instead of qemu

[PATCH v3 00/12] v2v: Change virt-v2v to use nbdkit for input in several modes.
v2 was posted here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-July/msg00115.html
This also has links to earlier versions.
v3:
- The 01/11 patch in v2 included a bunch of unnecessary plus one
necessary change to how input_password is passed around. I moved
the necessary change into the final patch (implementing SSH
password authentication) and dropped the rest.
- The 01/11

This is a rebase on top of current master branch with no other

[PATCH v4 00/12] v2v: Change virt-v2v to use nbdkit for input in several modes.
v3 posted here:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-July/msg00200.html
v4:
- The first patch in the v3 series was just a trivial doc whitespace
fix so I pushed it.
- There's a new patch using the nbdkit-retry-filter. This is not
actually upstream in nbdkit but we know enough about how it will
work.
- Rebased against master and reran the tests.
