similar to: [PATCH 0/2] Don't fail if 'type' (disk format) attribute is missing from libvirt XML (RHBZ#701814).

Here are some of the patches that I have maintained in the patch queue of my packages that I maintain within the Debian distribution (http://packages.qa.debian.org/libg/libguestfs.html). All of them address FTBFS (fail to build from source) errors that happened with the particular configuration that is used for building the Debian package. Cheers, -Hilko

This converts more of the tests (basically everything under tests/) to use the test harness, revealing some problems which have subsequently been fixed. 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

Since v4: - More tests have been converted. - Testing local guests fixed. - Drop no-exec-stack test.

For v6: This is mainly just a rebase, but I have also added tests in the ocaml/ language bindings directory, and for all the OCaml-written virt tools. Rich.

v7: The only changes since v6 are those suggested by Pino in the review of v5.

I should probably start by saying this patch series isn't ready for review yet. This patch series adds a test harness to libguestfs. It allows us to run the tests outside the ordinary 'make check' path in the build tree. In particular, you can use this to run tests when libguestfs has been installed. 'make check' and the other 'make check-*' rules still work. The

This is a more complete patch to add the test harness. The only parts missing now are the language bindings (except OCaml). The language bindings need a bit more thought. At the moment most language binding tests are done through some sort of shell script like perl/run-perl-tests which either runs each test itself or uses some language-specific machinary to run each test. The problem with that

Since v2: - Add perl tests. - Reworked and fixed the tests for virt-builder. - Some further minor bug fixes.

This is a combination of: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00046.html [PATCH 00/12] Refactor utility functions. plus: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00023.html [PATCH v3 00/19] Allow APIs to be implemented in OCaml. with the second patches rebased on top of the utility refactoring, and some other adjustments and extensions. This passes

Since v3: - A large number of fixes, especially for running the tests on installed libguestfs. - Fixed EXTRA_DIST rules throughout. - Extra patch 17/17 which is a tidy-up of the generated XML listing guests. Rich.

This version doesn't crash or cause hung processes or stuck mountpoints, so that's an improvement. Rich.

This patch is just for review. It enables FUSE support in the API via two new calls, 'guestfs_mount_local' and 'guestfs_umount_local'. FUSE turns out to be very easy to deadlock (necessitating that the machine be rebooted). Running the test from the third patch is usually an effective way to demonstrate this. However I have not yet managed to produce a simple reproducer that

This changes the proposed API slightly. Previously 'mount-local' generating a 'mounted' event when the filesystem was ready, and from the 'mounted' event you had to effectively do a fork. Now, 'mount-local' just initializes the mountpoint and you have to call 'mount-local-run' to enter the FUSE main loop. Between these calls you can do a fork or whatever

For background on this change, see: https://rwmj.wordpress.com/2015/12/06/inspection-now-with-added-prolog/ v2 was previously posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2015-December/msg00038.html To test this patch series on a real guest, you can do: $ ./run guestfish -v -x -a /var/tmp/centos-6.img ><fs> run ><fs> debug sh "guestfs-inspection

Hi, this patch series fixes few more issues discovered by Coverity. Thanks, Pino Toscano (6): tail: check the return value pf guestfs_set_pgroup daemon: btrfs: check end_stringsbuf return values everywhere java: use cleanup handlers for structs (lists) as return values lib: qemu: improve handling of FILE* p2v: check more return values p2v: fix possible close(-1) issue cat/tail.c

I was attempting one way to solve: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1400332 "RFE: virt-builder should support templates with encrypted filesystems" However this approach doesn't really work because templates containing encrypted partitions cannot be compressed, and therefore the guest template would be a multi-gigabyte download. I better approach will likely be to use
