similar to: [PATCH] p2v: Add awk as a dependency.

Move all the dependencies with the same name in all the distributions to a single list at the end. There should be no change to the package list used to build the p2v ISO. --- p2v/dependencies.m4 | 72 ++++++++++++++++------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 51 deletions(-) diff --git a/p2v/dependencies.m4 b/p2v/dependencies.m4 index 21541b4..e590f57 100644 ---

In the fake <domain type='physical'> libvirt XML that we create to describe the physical host, we did not accurately pass any information about the host CPU except the number of cores (<vcpu/>). This commit extracts detailed information about the vendor, model and topology of the host CPU and adds that to the libvirt XML for virt-v2v. Conveniently we can use libvirt

Don't get the CPU information from libvirt, because including libvirt and all dependencies in the virt-p2v ISO bloats everything. Instead get most of the information we need from the util-linux program 'lscpu'. Unfortunately the CPU model cannot be retrieved. Example output: $ ./run virt-p2v --cmdline="p2v.dump_config_and_exit" [...] cpu vendor . . . Intel cpu

Use the common denominator for SLES and openSUSE in the dependencies. For example most of NetworkManager pieces and metacity aren't provided on SLES. ifconfig is in the net-tools-deprecated package in openSUSE Factory, which means after openSUSE Leap 42.2. Older versions have it in the net-tools package. Adding this complexity only to add ifconfig because sysadmins prefer it isn't too

When the user clicks on the second column of the list of network interfaces, run 'ethtool --identify <if_name> 10', which (on supported cards) flashes a light on the physical interface for 10 seconds, allowing it to be identified by the operator. This has a nasty bit of hidden UI, basically because Gtk makes it near impossible to put a regular button into a GtkTreeView. ---

We do this by sending an Inhibit() message to logind and receiving a file descriptor back, which we hold open until the conversion completes (or fails). This is described here: https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/inhibit/ This adds an additional optional dependency on DBus since we use DBus to call the Inhibit() method.

I can do the work of un-duplicating the other duplicated

Hi, this small series fixes the generation of Debian-based images using virt-p2v-make-disk. With this series, the image can boot fine, X is started, and the p2v interface appears. I haven't tried an actual conversion, but I don't think there are Debian-specific problems preventing that. Thanks, Pino Toscano (4): p2v: fix Gtk dependencies on Debian p2v: remove

virt-v2v is definitely used by the functional tests that run virt-p2v, so check for it, and require it for running those tests.

Calculate the offset of the physical host's Real Time Clock (RTC) from UTC and pass this to virt-v2v through the libvirt XML description of the physical machine. The libvirt XML is modified to add one of the following: (no <clock/> element) - if the RTC could not be read or there was some other time calculation error. <clock offset='utc' /> - if the RTC is the

Currently virt-p2v requires Gtk 2. This commit changes virt-p2v so it can be built with either Gtk 2 or 3. By careful use of macros, this code should compile on both recent Gtk 2 and Gtk 3. With no other options, ./configure will now prefer Gtk 3 if it finds it, or fall back to Gtk 2. But you can control this by setting './configure --with-gtk=2|3|check|no' where the options mean: *

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

This is tangentially related to: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1372668 The problem in that bug is that we didn't pass the source CPU model (Sandybridge in that case) through to the target RHV hypervisor. So when the Windows guest booted on the target it gives an error about CPU hardware being disconnected (although it otherwise boots and works fine). This patch series
