This requires changing the generator so it can handle passing optional arguments all thr way through to the daemon, changing the protocol (see previous patch set), and implementing the new mkfs-opts call. At the moment there is just an optional blocksize argument, thus mimicking what you can already do with 'mkfs-b'. But this change will allow us in future to encode much of the rest of

Not quite sure what happened to the waitpid()s which were along that path, but at some point they seem to have got deleted. This is a fix for: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=518747 I haven't been able to run the tests yet however, because currently Rawhide is broken (ntfsprogs has missing dependencies).

I'm pleased to announce the release of libnbd 1.4.0, a high performance Network Block Device (NBD) client library. Key features of libnbd: * Synchronous API for ease of use. * Asynchronous API for writing non-blocking, multithreaded clients. You can mix both APIs freely. * High performance. * Minimal dependencies for the basic library. * Well-documented, stable API. * Bindings

This is the previously controversial 1/3 patch, split into two parts. The first patch contains these changes from last time: - set errno = 0 before readdir, and check for errors after - check for other errors from the chdir call which weren't ENOTDIR - the documentation is clarified about when you might use this function - more comprehensive tests, including the corner cases Matt

This call wraps up some functionality of blkid so you can get the Linux VFS driver for a mounted filesystem. For example: $ guestfish --ro -a /dev/vg_trick/Win2003x32 -m /dev/sda1 \ blkid_type /dev/sda1 ntfs Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

I've nearly converted the Perl code for inspection into C, but while I'm fixing the bugs, it strikes me that the 'file_architecture' part of this is simple and self-contained. This is just a translation of the Perl call into C. The Perl call continues to exist, but is marked as deprecated. Probably we should simply replace it with a call to the new API. Rich. -- Richard

After these three patches, virt-inspector is just a shell around the core API, left doing command line parsing.
