similar to: [PATCH] lib: Add direct support for the NBD (Network Block Device) protocol.

This commit implements some hairy C macros to simplify XML generation. Given the target XML: <cpu mode="host-passthrough"> <model fallback="allow"/> </cpu> The old code would have looked like this: XMLERROR (-1, xmlTextWriterStartElement (xo, BAD_CAST "cpu")); XMLERROR (-1, xmlTextWriterWriteAttribute (xo, BAD_CAST

In some places when generating XML output in C code we use some clever macros: start_element ("memory") { attribute ("unit", "MiB"); string ("%d", g->memsize); } end_element (); This commit which is mostly refactoring moves the repeated definitions of these macros into a common header file. I also took this opportunity to change / clean up

Change virt-inspector so it uses the common set of macros. I also added: - single_element(): creates <foo>bar</foo> which is used extensively by virt-inspector - base64(): used by virt-inspector for the icon --- common/utils/libxml2-writer-macros.h | 26 ++ inspector/inspector.c | 524 ++++++++++++--------------- 2 files changed, 258 insertions(+), 292

Because of previous automated commits, such as changing 'guestfs___' -> 'guestfs_int_', several function calls no longer lined up with their parameters, and some lines were too long. The bulk of this commit was done using emacs batch mode and the technique described here: http://www.cslab.pepperdine.edu/warford/BatchIndentationEmacs.html The changes suggested by emacs were

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.

QEMU upstream has broken snapshot=on ... again. These two patches stop using it entirely. Instead we run 'qemu-img create' to create overlay disks as required. Note that the libvirt and UML backends were already doing this: The libvirt backend because <transient/> has never worked, and the UML backend was running uml_mkcow because the UML-equivalent syntax of snapshot=on was

Note this patch requires a non-upstream qemu patch that I've been experimenting with. See qemu-devel list. Rich.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=912499 (especially comments 7 & 10) This patch set is the final fix so that we can access disks in use by other guests when SELinux and sVirt are enabled. Previously such disks were inaccessible because sVirt labels the disks with a random SELinux label to prevent other instances of qemu from being able to read them. So naturally the libguestfs

Add command line options to optionally disable the output of the installed application, and the guest icon. This makes the inspection slightly faster, producing a smaller XML to parse/process in case there is no interest in these details. --- inspector/inspector.c | 59 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- inspector/virt-inspector.pod | 14 +++++++++++ 2 files changed, 51

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

This series improves ceph rbd support in libguestfs. It uses the servers list, adds support for a custom username, and starts to add support for custom secret.

This just duplicated libosinfo information, and because it was never tested it didn't work most of the time. --- docs/C_SOURCE_FILES | 2 - generator/actions_inspection.ml | 67 --- generator/actions_inspection_deprecated.ml | 61 +++ inspector/Makefile.am | 11 +- inspector/example-debian-netinst-cd.xml | 23 -
