...e same thing) which disables qemu, although that means for libguestfs to work at all you would need to supply a qemu binary at runtime through an environment variable (‘LIBGUESTFS_HV=/path/to/qemu program’). The logic for all this is here: https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/blob/master/m4/guestfs_qemu.m4#L26 > I would like libguestfs to take even the "qemu-img" binary from the > installed qemu package. > How to enable that? qemu is a hypervisor, qemu-img is a program for manipulating disk images. They are very different things, and it makes no sense to substitute qemu-img f...

Not very much related to each other. Rich.

Currently we have an OCaml library for generating the qemu command line (used only by ‘virt-v2v -o qemu’). However we also generate a qemu command line in ‘lib/launch-direct.c’, and we might in future need to generate a ‘-readconfig’-compatible configuration file if we want to go beyond 10,000 drives for scalability testing. Therefore this patch series reimplements the qemu command line code as

Two (not related to each other) refactorings: Patches 1-12 split configure.ac into smaller files using the m4_include mechanism. Patches 13-15 split out parts of guestfs.pod (ie. guestfs(3)) into three new manual pages: guestfs-hacking(3) - how to extend and contribute to libguestfs guestfs-internals(3) - architecture and internals guestfs-security(3) - security and CVEs Patch 16 is a

If the connection is not local, paths of disks will refer to the remote host, which were mistakenly handled as local paths (in the best case failing to open a non-existing disk, and in the worst case opening a different disk!). In case the disks are remote resources like ssh or ceph, nothing guarantees that the hostname can be reached from the local machine, or even that it is actually the same on

Hopefully this time ...
