similar to: [PATCH 0/3] virt-win-reg: Add support for HKEY_USERS

This is a set of bugfixes and enhancements to allow virt-resize to really expand Linux and Windows guests. Previously there were lots of bugs. This version has been tested on a variety of guests successfully. Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones libguestfs lets you edit virtual machines.

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.

The parameters to virt-tar are swapped so they always go in source -> destination

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

I just installed virt-v2v 0.8.3.1 on a Fedora 14 VM and was getting ready to set up a P2V migration. But the virt-p2v-server man pages only tell me about the GPL and that's it. Is the documentation for that .conf file someplace else now? Or don't I need it anymore? Thanks - Greg Scott

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

NOTE: This is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL and can eat babies ... Modify the guest libvirt XML to add the virtio-serial channel: <channel type='unix'> <source mode='bind' path='/tmp/socket'/> <target type='virtio' name='org.libguestfs.channel.0'/> </channel> In the guest, compile guestfsd and run it like this: sudo

This patch series starts by tidying up the code for the virt-cat, virt-df, virt-edit, etc tools, moving them into a single directory and making the build system much simpler as a consequence. Then we add two new tools, virt-tar (a general purpose archive and upload tool) and virt-ls (for listing directories). No new functionality is enabled by these tools -- that is to say, you can do everything

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

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

Although support for write(2) syscall is not yet implemented, we might consider cautiously merging this one. In read-only mode it seems to work fine and is stable under load.

In the current Perl library we have a function called resolve_windows_path which handles the useful [for Windows guests] case where we need to resolve the true, case-sensitive path behind a case-insensitive Windows path. For example, a Windows path like "C:\Windows\System32" can be presented to Linux by NTFS 3g in a variety of ways, eg: /WINDOWS/system32 /WINDOWS/SYSTEM32

This patch also contains some code cleanup, error message fixes, and a regression test. However the pertinent change appears to be this one (which I don't fully understand): - return fwrite (buf, len, 1, fp) == 1 ? 0 : -1; + return fwrite (buf, 1, len, fp) < len ? 0 : -1; Rich. -- Richard Jones, Virtualization Group, Red Hat http://people.redhat.com/~rjones virt-df lists disk usage
