similar to: [PATCH 0/2] Make appliance building thread-safe (RHBZ#790721).

The first patch preserves file mode, UID, GID and SELinux context across edited files. The second patch adds a useful new command in guestfish ('llz') which shows SELinux context (like 'ls -laZ') that was useful when debugging this. Rich.

This is a further, more comprehensive fix for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=788641 The guestfish 'edit' command (aka 'emacs', 'vi') suffered from the same problems as virt-edit and more. It could have failed and left a partially overwritten file, and it didn't preserve permissions etc from the original file. These three patches fix all this. The first

This patch set fixes a two year old bug in guestfish, namely that the 'glob' command does not expand /dev/* patterns. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=635971 Rich.

This preliminary patch series adds a libvirt backend to libguestfs. It's for review only because although it launches the guest OK, there are some missing features that need to be implemented. The meat of the patch is in part 4/4. To save you the trouble of interpreting libxml2 fragments, an example of the generated XML and the corresponding qemu command line are attached below. Note the

This is the libguestfs companion patch to: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2013-September/msg00045.html Rich.

This is the same as the previous patch, but the partition type is now chosen automatically from mbr or gpt, unless the user expresses a preference. https://gb.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2012-January/msg00136.html Rich.

This is very useful for debugging multithreaded programs. Rich.

Rather than me explaining over again what it does, I've included the man page below.

I've been taking a long hard look at the protocol layer. It has evolved over a long time without any particular direction, and the result is, to say the least, not very organized. These patches take a first step at cleaning up the mess by abstracting out socket operations from the rest of the code. The purpose of this is to allow us to slot in a different connection layer under the

Assorted collection of small improvements in making libguestfs build on non-Linux OSes; most of the changes impact tests though. Thanks, Pino Toscano (7): build: check the path of fuser, and use it in FUSE code tests: move guestfs-md5.sh to test-data v2v: tests: isolate SHA1 calculation in an own shared function v2v: tests: use guestfs-hashsums.sh for MD5 php: pass $(MAKE) to

I'm not going to put this upstream because there's no benefit. However it is useful to record the patch on the mailing list. Rich.

The way we used posix_fadvise was wrong, and yet right! Rich.

Hi, this series update libguestfs to a recent gnulib version, so that we can use its new getprogname module, and solve altogether one of the porting issues (the need for 'program_name' by the error module of gnulib), and have a single way to get the name of the current program. A number of changes in tools mostly, although mechanical. Thanks, Pino Toscano (3): Update gnulib to latest

Having implemented a GC for HLVM, I am now turning my attention to implementing a GC that supports parallelism. To do this, I would like to use atomic instructions as well as mutexes. What is the status of LLVM's atomic instrinsics (e.g. CAS)? Is anyone using them in real projects? I realised that an obvious test would be to compile some simple example programs with llvm-g++ instead of
