Please take a look. This feature is necessary for in-place image expanding.

This action moves second(backup) GPT header to the end of the disk. It is usable in in-place image expanding, since free space after second GPT header is unusable. To use additional space, we have to move second header. This is what sgdisk -e does. However, sgdisk -e may perform additional actions if the partition table has unexpected params (e.g. if we call sgdisk -e /dev/sda1, it may fix

part-expand-gpt takes extreme cautions and doesn't proceed to writing to the disk if the preliminary dry run of sgdisk has generated any warnings on stdout. This blocks the use of part-expand-gpt on disk shrink (with disk resize being the main usecase for part-expand-gpt), because sgdisk dry run produces a warning in that case. So remove the excessive safety check, and leave it up to the

I'll have a look when I get back, unless Pino, Dan or others get there before me. Also, new APIs aren't 1.32 material, since I just stabilised it, created the release notes, and nearly released it.

GUESTFSD_EXT_CMD is used by OpenSUSE to track which external commands are run by the daemon and package those commands into the appliance. However because this uses linker trickery it won't work from OCaml code. Replace it with a [nearly] standard C mechanism. Files still have to declare the external commands they will use, eg: DECLARE_EXTERNAL_COMMANDS ("btrfs",

Some OSes (e.g. Windows Server 2012 R2) fail to boot after virt-resize due to changed disk guid. To fix it, we add new APIs: part_get_disk_guid part_set_disk_guid part_set_disk_guid_random We also preserve disk GUID in virt-resize. Maxim Perevedentsev (3): New API: part_get_disk_guid and part_set_disk_guid. New API: part_set_disk_guid_random. resize: preserve GPT disk GUID.
