similar to: Inspect running disk image

This rounds off hotplugging support by allowing you to add and remove drives at any stage (before and after launch). Rich.

This is, I guess, version 3 of this patch series which adds disk labels and hotplugging (only hot-add implemented so far). The good news is .. it works! Rich.

I was sure I was doing something wrong as I'm not yet fully aware of QCOW2 snapshot feature and how it interacts with libguestfs. I'll try to explain better the scenario: I have several hosts running lots of VMs which are generated from few base images, say A, B, C the base images (backing file) and A1, A2, A*, B1, B2, B* clones on top of which the newly spawned VMs are running. I need

Greetings, I have the following typical scenario: given one or more qcow2 base images I clone them with COW and start the VMs. At a certain point I'd like to inspect them in order to see their evolution compared to the known base images. To do so I was thinking about taking a disk snapshot of each VM and inspect its content through libguestfs (using it's Python bindings). Obviously I

Yara is a rule based scanning engine aimed to help malware analysts in finding and classifying interesting samples. https://github.com/VirusTotal/yara This series adds Yara support to Libguestfs allowing to upload sets of rules and scanning files against them. Currently provided APIs: - yara_load: loads a set of rules - yara_destroy: free resources allocated by loaded rules - yara_scan:

This series addresses the issue where non UTF8 file names in a guest image lead to libguestfs segfault with Python 3 APIs. The core issue is the APIs are not checking the return value when constructing a new PyObject. Therefore NULL pointers are added to Python collections (lists and dictionaries) crashing the application. Few notes regarding the comments on the previous patch. - Added a
