Libvirt >= 2.1.0 now allows you to open files which have a "json:" QEMU pseudo-URL as backingfile, whereas previously it would fail hard in this case (RHBZ#1134878). When virt-v2v performs conversions from Xen (over SSH) or vCenter (over HTTPS) it uses these pseudo-URLs as backingfiles. We had to tell people to use LIBGUESTFS_BACKEND=direct to avoid libvirt in this situation. This

Enhance the Libvirt_utils module with libvirt connection objects, and read-only and read-writen open functions for them; adapt the rest of the mini-binding to use these objects, instead of opening + closing libvirt connections every time. This has different improvements: a) a libvirt connection is reused for different API calls, improving the communication with remote (input) servers b)

While there are input modes that do not use libvirt, making libvirt mandatory for virt-v2v slightly simplifies the code now, and allow for further improvements/integration with libvirt later on. --- Makefile.am | 2 ++ v2v/Makefile.am | 20 ++++++-------------- v2v/libvirt_utils-c.c | 22 ---------------------- v2v/v2v.ml | 12 +++--------- 4 files changed, 11

Currently virt-v2v has few custom C-based functions for libvirt operations, which are limited in what they do, and there is a lot of duplicated code. Instead, switch to ocaml-libvirt for all the libvirt interaction currently done by the Libvirt_utils module. This has few advantages: - each input & output module now opens a libvirt connection only once, only when needed - no need to pass

Hi, this series switches virt-2v to ocaml-libvirt, embedding the latest version of it from git. This way, it is possible to improve the way v2v connects to libvirt for both input, and output modules, and interacts with libvirt (e.g. no more virsh calls needed in virt-v2v). As side effect, virt-v2v now requires libvirt, as keeping it optional would create too much burden. I could not test all

Only in end-user messages and documentation. This change was done mostly mechanically using the Perl script attached below. I also changed don't -> don’t etc and made some other simple fixes.
