similar to: [PATCH v3 00/23] Reimplement many daemon APIs in OCaml.

v1 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00098.html This series now depends on two small patches which I posted separately: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00207.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-July/msg00209.html v1 -> v2: - Previously changes to generator/daemon.ml were made incrementally through the patch

v2 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00008.html This series gets as far as a working (and faster) reimplementation of ‘guestfs_list_filesystems’. I also have another patch series on top of this one which reimplements the inspection APIs inside the daemon, but that needs a bit more work still, since inspection turns out to be a very large piece of code. Rich.

Previously posted as part of the mega utilities/inspection series here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00232.html What I've done is to extract just the parts related to rewriting daemon APIs in OCaml, rebase them on top of the current master, fix a few things, and recompile and test everything. Rich.

Version 1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00003.html This patch series reimplements a few more APIs in OCaml, including some very important core APIs like ?list_filesystems? and ?mount?. All the tests pass after this. The selection of APIs that I have moved may look a little random, but in fact they are all APIs consumed by the inspection code (and some more

v6 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00103.html and this requires the utilities refactoring posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00169.html Inspection is now complete[*], although not very well tested. I'm intending to compare the output of many guests using old & new virt-inspector to see if I can find any

This is a combination of: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00046.html [PATCH 00/12] Refactor utility functions. plus: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00023.html [PATCH v3 00/19] Allow APIs to be implemented in OCaml. with the second patches rebased on top of the utility refactoring, and some other adjustments and extensions. This passes

v5: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00065.html Since v5, this now implements inspection almost completely for Linux and Windows guests. Rich.

v7 was: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00169.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-June/msg00184.html I believe this addresses all comments received so far. Also it now passes a test where I compared about 100 disk images processed with old and new virt-inspector binaries. The output is identical in all cases except one which is caused by a bug in blkid

Initial discussion is here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-January/msg00188.html. v2 was posted here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-January/msg00246.html. v3 comparing to v2 is just a rebase with slightly changed commits comments.

This reimplements the augeas APIs using ocaml-augeas (dropping all the C code). The behaviour seems unchanged, although I may have not tested all the various corner cases. Changes from v2: - dropped patch #1, as it was applied already (was a real bugfix) - rebased on master Pino Toscano (3): Revert "Revert "daemon: implement OptString for OCaml APIs"" daemon: move augeas

This reimplements the augeas APIs using ocaml-augeas (dropping all the C code). The behaviour seems unchanged, although I may have not tested all the various corner cases. Pino Toscano (4): daemon: fix/enhance error reporting of Augeas exceptions Revert "Revert "daemon: implement OptString for OCaml APIs"" daemon: move augeas APIs to OCaml daemon: drop usage of C

If we want to permit more than 255 drives to be added, then we will have to add the disks to the same virtio-scsi target using different unit (LUN) numbers. Unfortunately SCSI LUN enumeration in the Linux is not deterministic (eg. two disks with target=0, lun=[0,1] can be enumerated as /dev/sda or /dev/sdb randomly). Dealing with that will require some very complex device name translation on the

Original version linked from here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1808977#c8 There is no change in the code in this series, but feedback from the original series was we shouldn't lose the error message in patch 7. When I tested this just now in fact we don't lose the error if debugging is enabled, but I have updated the commit message to note what the error message is in the

These commits, along with the associated changes to common: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-March/msg00286.html support the transparent decryption and inspection of Windows guests encrypted with BitLocker encryption. To do the BitLocker decryption requires cryptsetup 2.3.0 (although cryptsetup 2.3 is not required for existing LUKS use). It also requires a new-ish Linux kernel, I

Split up the huge generator/actions.ml into several smaller files. Rich.

As discussed in the emails today, this is the third version addressing most points from the v1/v2 review. You will need to pair this with the changes in libguestfs-common from this series: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2020-September/msg00050.html Rich.

This synchronizes the embedded ocaml-augeas copy, and reimplements the augeas APIs using it (dropping all the C code). The behaviour seems unchanged, although I may have not tested all the various corner cases. Pino Toscano (5): common/mlaugeas: Synchronize with latest ocaml-augeas daemon: fix/enhance error reporting of Augeas exceptions Revert "Revert "daemon: implement

This is a follow-up to the other generator changes in: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-February/msg00217.html Rich.

Hi, as a followup for the signature fix for mount_vfs [1], here it is a patch series to generate automatically most of the OCaml interfaces of daemon actions. Only the Lvm and Mount modules are left with hand-written interfaces. [1] https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-April/msg00059.html Thanks, Pino Toscano (3): daemon: directly use Optgroups daemon: use the structs from the

This patch series is just FYI at the moment. However it does pass the tests. The daemon is a self-contained program. We don't need to write it all in C. Writing parts of it in OCaml would make it simpler and less error-prone. In particular if the daemon was written in a more sane programming language then we could move the inspection code to run entirely inside the appliance, which would
