similar to: [PATCH] ocaml: Fix thread safety of strings in bindings (RHBZ#604691).

The safe_malloc (etc) functions call g->abort_fn on failure. That's not appropriate for language bindings, and we never intended that these internal functions be used from language bindings, that was just a historical accident. This patch series removes any external use of the safe_* functions. Rich.

This patch series is just FYI at the moment. However it does pass the tests. The daemon is a self-contained program. We don't need to write it all in C. Writing parts of it in OCaml would make it simpler and less error-prone. In particular if the daemon was written in a more sane programming language then we could move the inspection code to run entirely inside the appliance, which would

This synchronizes the embedded ocaml-augeas copy, and reimplements the augeas APIs using it (dropping all the C code). The behaviour seems unchanged, although I may have not tested all the various corner cases.

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.

Use the ocamlmklib -ldopt flag to pass the general $(LDFLAGS) when calling gcc to link dllmlhivex.so. We were already passing $(CFLAGS) when building the object file. When building using Fedora's standard hardening flags this gives: ocamlmklib -o mlhivex hivex_c.o hivex.cmo \ -verbose -ldopt '-Wl,-z,relro -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld' \ -L../lib/.libs

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.

Hi, recently, there was a discussion in the development list of libvirt on switching to a different JSON library than YAJL [1]. Since we use YAJL, and the points there IMHO apply to libguestfs as well, I decided to give a try in switching to Jansson [2]. The result IMHO is nice, with the additional APIs of Jansson that simplify some of our code. Unlike with YAJL, I did not set a minimum

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.

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

Parse the query string from URLs, and pass it as new add_drive optarg; use it when building the file= URL for qemu. Accept query string only for http and https protocols, for now. --- Possibly it looks like an ad-hoc solution for http(s), although I'm not sure how it could possibly be generalized somehow (maybe "extra params" which would be the query string for http(s)?).

Hi, this series introduces a basic support for registering/attaching/unregistering RHEL guests using subscription-manager, so it is possible to do for example: $ cat <<EOF > sm.conf [general] username=user password=pass [attach-0] pool=ID EOF $ virt-customize -a rhel-guest.qcow2 \ --sm-config sm.conf --sm-register --sm-attach 0 \ --install pkg1 --install pkg2

Version 1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00003.html This patch series reimplements a few more APIs in OCaml, including some very important core APIs like ?list_filesystems? and ?mount?. All the tests pass after this. The selection of APIs that I have moved may look a little random, but in fact they are all APIs consumed by the inspection code (and some more

These patches should be ready to go in now; I will also post my work-in-progress for enabling full parallel handling that depends on these, but with that series, I was still getting crashes or hangs with test-socket-activation (I think I've nailed all the crashes I've seen, but the hang is rather insidious; see my other email
