With commit bc2b41778405cc6a376a670703ce63e3678bf1fb HAVE_LIBVIRT_BACKEND is defined based on the libvirt version (using its version macro), although libvirt.h is included only after that check: because of this, variables in the guestfs_h struct after the HAVE_LIBVIRT_BACKEND block would be used wrongly if libvirt.h was not included before guestfs-internal.h, like in the...

v1 -> v2: - Rebase on top of Pino's version work. Two patches went upstream, these are the two remaining patches. Note the generation number is still inside the qemu.stat file. We could put it in the filename, I have no particular preference. Rich.

Doing qemu feature detection in the direct backend takes ~100ms because we need to run `qemu -help' and `qemu -devices ?', and each of those interacts with glibc's very slow link loader. Fixing the link loader is really hard. Instead memoize the output of those two commands. This patch series first separates all the code dealing with qemu into a separate module (src/qemu.c) and

This patch series moves some files and directories around but is only code motion (or supposed to be). A new directory, common/, is created for all of the common code which is currently shared in random ways between parts of the project. And src/ becomes lib/ (the largest change, but mostly mechanical). In full this series makes the following changes: src/libprotocol -> common/protocol

Previous patch series was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-January/msg00059.html v2 simply extends this patch series to cover the extra directories common/edit, common/progress, common/windows and common/parallel. The only remaining item is to consider whether we should rename mllib to something else, mlcommon was my suggestion. Rich.
