similar to: [PATCH] daemon: Link daemon to -lasmrun_pic.

v1 was here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2017-November/msg00068.html v1 -> v2: - Use a configure-time test. Rich.

In OCaml 4.06 we need to link to daemon to libasmrun_pic.a (the OCaml runtime linked with -fPIC). Otherwise you will see many errors like this: /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(startup_aux.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(startup.o): relocation

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

This change allows parts of the daemon to be written in the OCaml programming language. I am using the ‘Main Program in C’ method along with ‘-output-obj’ to create an object file from the OCaml code / runtime, as described here: https://caml.inria.fr/pub/docs/manual-ocaml/intfc.html Furthermore, change the generator to allow individual APIs to be implemented in OCaml. This is picked by

When parts of the daemon were previously converted to OCaml, the previous PCRE regexps were converted to Str regexps. Restore the original PCRE regexps. There was also one case where an original call to glob(3) was replaced by a Str regexp, and this is replaced by a PCRE regexp (although it is in fact identical in this instance). This updates commit b48da89dd6edce325f4c1f2956435c4d383ebe77 and

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.

I think this fixes everything mentioned: - Added the Optgroups module as suggested. - Remove command temporary files. - Replace command ~flags with ?fold_stdout_on_stderr. - Nest _with_mounted function. - Rebase & retest. Rich.

Changes from v3: - mini-os configuration files moved into stubdom/ - mini-os extra console support now a config option - Fewer #ifdefs - grant table setup uses hypercall bounce - Xenstore stub domain syslog support re-enabled Changes from v2: - configuration support added to mini-os build system - add mini-os support for conditionally compiling frontends, xenbus -

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

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

v2: - Change the OCaml code in the daemon to use PCRE instead of Str. - Call pcre_compile2 so we can capture the error code on failure. - Extend the test suite. - Some other cleanups, but very minor. Rich.

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
