I've tested this with both upstream qemu from git, and the old non-broken qemu from Fedora 12.

For me it has so far taken a lot longer. The problem is that the number of dependent packages is probably 100s. If you want something

The more I look at this patch, the less I like it. I would summarise why I think it's wrong here, but it's better if you look at the message I posted on the gnulib mailing list here first: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2009-11/msg00434.html Directly accessing errno on Windows is wrong: you won't see the true reasons for an error by doing that. However depending on

This patch is in preparation for allowing libguestfs to use alternate "vmchannel" implementations. Although it's not a functional change, I think it is worthwhile on its own because use of the term "vmchannel" in the names of constants is inappropriate since (a) the "-net channel" option is now properly known upstream as "guestfwd", and (b) no one can

So I got a lot further building libguestfs on Ubuntu, up to the point where I can boot the appliance and run some simple commands. We need to push some patches upstream, and there are still some things in Ubuntu itself which are broken. This documents how far I've got. (1) libguestfs from git, Ubuntu 9.10, all updated to the latest versions. You will of course also need to read the README

This short patch series fixes various problems with the Java bindings, including enabling support for functions that return hash tables (returned as Map<String,String>). With this, the Java bindings are improved although still not perfect. The last remaining issue is to implement support for functions that take optional arguments.

This patch series implements user cancellation. What this means is that the "user" (or any library caller) can cancel certain long-running operations. Currently it is only possible to cancel upload and download operations (ie. anything in the generator which uses FileIn and FileOut). The mechanism in the protocol to implement cancellation already exists, and it is already used to

The current guestfs_find API call contains an undocumented limit: It needs to marshall the whole list of filenames into a single protocol message. Unfortunately just about any Linux guest breaks this limit if you try 'guestfs_find ("/")' so this isn't much use. These patches add a new API call (find0) which breaks this limit by using a FileOut parameter. It's slightly

These two patches implement the first (and hardest) part of the fix for CVE-2010-3851. This adds a way to specify the format when adding a drive, avoiding qemu's auto-detection. In order to avoid an explosion of different add_drive_* functions (we have 4 already), we have implemented a way to specify optional arguments to functions, so all we need is a single new 'add_drive_opts'

NOT a problem, just a question about distro checking: the default value is REDHAT, then you check debian (or ubuntu) and then archlinux why are you using two if statements ? -- Evaggelos Balaskas - Unix System Engineer http://gr.linkedin.com/in/evaggelosbalaskas

These patches are a distillation of the good patches from the previous large / for-discussion-only error handling patch.

This patch series adds support for outputing an ext2-based appliance from febootstrap-supermin-helper. The usage is very simple, you just add '-f ext2' flag and the name of the appliance file that you want to write to. The implementation uses libext2fs, which is a very low level way to create ext2 filesystems from scratch. We'd like to use libguestfs, but that's an obvious
