When importing from VMware via the libvirt driver, the libvirt driver can add an empty source bridge name: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='00:01:02:03:04:05:06'/> <source bridge=''/> </interface> Replicate what we do on the -i ova path, and map these to "eth0", "eth1" etc. This also includes a bunch

This isn't quite the full thing. I think that Pino is also working on replacing the ssh and scp commands in the v2v/input_vmx.ml file with libssh. Without those changes, -i vmx will still issue raw ssh and scp commands, which will use ssh-agent (or keyboard-interactive). The Xen input method doesn't use raw ssh and scp commands, so that one is OK. Rich.

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

The first patch in the old series was pushed a while back, and the last "TEMPORARY"

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. Rich.

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 1 was previously posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-June/msg00086.html to handle this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1848862 I was able to observe this bug and for me at least disabling readahead seems to cure it. Patches 2 and 3 are simplifications, removing a now-undocumented feature of virt-v2v-copy-to-local and thus simplifying greatly the

This is built on top of the following patch series: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-April/msg00054.html Rich.

See earlier thread on libvir-list: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-September/thread.html#00201 Libvirt >= 1.2.20 supplies the correct dcPath parameter. If it is available in the libvirt XML, use it, otherwise fall back to the old method of trying to guess it from the vpx:// path. Patches 1, 2 and 4 are just refactoring around this change. Rich.

The first commit removes the --dcpath parameter, which just makes the following stuff simpler. Since libvirt has supported getting datacenterpath from VMware since Oct 2015, it's time to drop this hairy parameter. The rest is quite a complicated series of refactorings, followed by a very simple change to add handling of snapshots taken from old virt-v2v. Rich.
