similar to: [PATCH 0/4] generator: Some work to split large C files

The visibility field in action replaces in_fish, in_docs and internal. The defined types are: VPublic: A public API. This is exported and documented in all language bindings, and in guestfish. VStateTest: A public API which queries the library state machine. It is exported and documented in all language bindings, but not guestfish. VBindTest: An internal API used only for testing

Per my previous email: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-September/msg00203.html I'd like to talk about requiring a more modern version of the OCaml compiler. These commits show some of the code changes which would be possible with OCaml >= 3.12 [which it turns out we already require by accident] and also with OCaml >= 4.02. The latter is my favoured option. Rich.

This rather complex set of patches allow non-optargs functions to gain optional arguments, while preserving source and binary backwards compatibility. The problem is that we cannot add an optional argument to an existing function. For example, we might want to add flags to the 'lvresize' API which currently has no optional arguments.

This is a simpler patch series to add symbol versioning. I have pushed patches 1-3 upstream. Rich.

As contrast to shortdesc which is forced to begin with lowercase, this patch forces longdesc to begin with uppercase.

v6: - use new test functions - fix yara_detection struct field names - revert yara_load function to initial version With Pino we were exploring the idea of allowing Users to load multiple rule files with subsequent calls to yara_load API. https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2016-November/msg00119.html It turns out impractical due to YARA API limitations. It is possible to load multiple

This rather more complex patch series adds symbol versioning (7/7 shows it in action). This works for me, tested by running old and new virt-inspector binaries against the new library. Rich.

Certain functions are intended to be internal only, but we currently export them anyway. This change moves them into a separate section of guestfs.h protected by a GUESTFS_PRIVATE variable. This change also enables private structs, but doesn't implement any. This change only affects the C api. Language bindings aren't affected, but probably should be in the future. --- align/Makefile.am
