The visibility field in action replaces in_fish, in_docs and internal. The defined types are: VPublic: A public API. This is exported and documented in all language bindings, and in guestfish. VStateTest: A public API which queries the library state machine. It is exported and documented in all language bindings, but not guestfish. VBindTest: An internal API used only for testing

By splitting up large C files we can make parallel compiles a bit faster. Rich.

For a very long time we have maintained two sets of utility functions, in mllib/common_utils.ml and generator/utils.ml. This changes things so that the same set of utility functions can be shared with both directories. It's not possible to use common_utils.ml directly in the generator because it provides several functions that use modules outside the OCaml stdlib. Therefore we add some

This change allows parts of the daemon to be written in the OCaml programming language. I am using the ‘Main Program in C’ method along with ‘-output-obj’ to create an object file from the OCaml code / runtime, as described here: https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html Furthermore, change the generator to allow individual APIs to be implemented in OCaml. This is picked by

If you have a struct containing ?field?, eg: type t = { field : int } then previously to pattern-match on this type, eg. in function parameters, you had to write: let f { field = field } = (* ... use field ... *) In OCaml >= 3.12 it is possible to abbreviate cases where the field being matched and the variable being bound have the same name, so now you can just write: let f {

Per my previous email: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-September/msg00203.html I'd like to talk about requiring a more modern version of the OCaml compiler. These commits show some of the code changes which would be possible with OCaml >= 3.12 [which it turns out we already require by accident] and also with OCaml >= 4.02. The latter is my favoured option. Rich.

v2 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00008.html This series gets as far as a working (and faster) reimplementation of ‘guestfs_list_filesystems’. I also have another patch series on top of this one which reimplements the inspection APIs inside the daemon, but that needs a bit more work still, since inspection turns out to be a very large piece of code. Rich.

I think this fixes everything mentioned: - Added the Optgroups module as suggested. - Remove command temporary files. - Replace command ~flags with ?fold_stdout_on_stderr. - Nest _with_mounted function. - Rebase & retest. Rich.

v1 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00098.html This series now depends on two small patches which I posted separately: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00207.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00209.html v1 -> v2: - Previously changes to generator/daemon.ml were made incrementally through the patch

Previously posted as part of the mega utilities/inspection series here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00232.html What I've done is to extract just the parts related to rewriting daemon APIs in OCaml, rebase them on top of the current master, fix a few things, and recompile and test everything. Rich.

This is a combination of: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00046.html [PATCH 00/12] Refactor utility functions. plus: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00023.html [PATCH v3 00/19] Allow APIs to be implemented in OCaml. with the second patches rebased on top of the utility refactoring, and some other adjustments and extensions. This passes

v6 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00103.html and this requires the utilities refactoring posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00169.html Inspection is now complete[*], although not very well tested. I'm intending to compare the output of many guests using old & new virt-inspector to see if I can find any

v5: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00065.html Since v5, this now implements inspection almost completely for Linux and Windows guests. Rich.

v7 was: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00169.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00184.html I believe this addresses all comments received so far. Also it now passes a test where I compared about 100 disk images processed with old and new virt-inspector binaries. The output is identical in all cases except one which is caused by a bug in blkid

Split up the huge generator/actions.ml into several smaller files. Rich.
