similar to: [PATCH v3 0/6] Import directly from OVA tar archive if possible

v4: - rebase to more recent master - 1/6: using just "quote" instead of "Filename.quote" - 2/6: reformated block of code according to Richards suggestion - 4/6: added tests for nsplit v3: Addressed Pino's comments, namely: - input_ova.ml - untar takes list of paths - renamed untar_partial to untar_metadata - replaced uggly regex with nsplit - tests - test changes

This series is related to the problem of inefficient import of OVA files. The needed enhancements of QEMU were merged into the codebase and should be available in QEMU 2.8. From there we can use 'size' and 'offset' options in raw driver to tell QEMU to use only subset of a file as an image. The patch set is more or less complete. The only outstanding issue is the missing detection

v7: - rebased because patch 1/3 has been pushed - changes to nsplit have been dropped (2/3) - addressed Richard's comments, notably the subfolder function was moved to mllib and renamed to subdirectory v6: - just rebase v5: - rebase, patches 1,3,5 were merged - 1/3: we still need to discuss whether to detect compressed discs - 2/3: - renamed argument noempty to keep_empty - tests were

Hi there, Here is v3 of the remaining patches. Diff to v2: * Removed the patch related to QXL * Fixed the firstboot script with Roman's comments * Fixed ova with subfolders test * Handle MF-relative path in ova files * Fixed now unneeded match case as per Richard's comment Cédric Bosdonnat (3): customize: fix windows firstboot script v2v: add support for SUSE VMDP drivers v2v:

OVA not a real standard. Colour me surprised ...

This has to be applied on top of this series: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-March/msg00144.html This is a fix for: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1430680 Kun Wei noticed that virt-v2v -i ova has a problem if we are running as root and the OVA is not located on a path which is fully readable by non-root. The reason for this is that libvirt runs qemu as a

Hi, I need to parse xml (vmware ovf) which have a namespace. Attached the ovf file. Thanks, Shahar.

A couple of patches cleaning up the -i ova code. These are both just refactoring (or should be at any rate). The second patch is best viewed with 'git show -w' to exclude whitespace changes. Rich.

When importing from VMware via the libvirt driver, the libvirt driver can add an empty source bridge name: <interface type='bridge'> <mac address='00:01:02:03:04:05:06'/> <source bridge=''/> </interface> Replicate what we do on the -i ova path, and map these to "eth0", "eth1" etc. This also includes a bunch

v1 -> v2: - Support for passing topology through -o glance. - Support for passing topology through -o rhv. - Use bool for acpi/apic/pae struct fields in virt-p2v. - Write the xpath expression in error messages instead of file/line. - Fix more memory leaks in virt-p2v cpuid.c. - Passes make check & check-valgrind. There may be some other minor changes. I believe that everything

The virt-v2v behaviour for OVA input now depends on QEMU version available. The tests affected by this now have two *.expect files and the expected result now also depends on the QEMU used.

The main reason for creating different OVF is that it can be used to create VM by oVirt REST API. The RHV export domain flavor cannot be used that way.

The change is not correct in case the OVF is used in -o vdsm mode, for example. Let's revert it, and then implement it properly.

The main reason for creating different OVF is that it can be used to create VM by oVirt REST API. The RHV export domain flavor cannot be used that way. v1 -> v2: - introduced flavour types instead of booleans - instead of referring to the new flavour as "standard OVF" or "fixed OVF" I refer to it as oVirt flavour. While it is more conforming than the one used in export

We don't have to always extract all files from the OVA archive. The OVA, as defined in the standard, is plain tar. We can work directly over the tar archive if we use correct 'offset' and 'size' options when defining the backing file for QEMU. This puts much lower requirement on available disk space. Since the virt-v2v behaviour for OVA input now depends on QEMU version
