similar to: [PATCH 0/3] test-tool: small options-related improvements

Nothing new in the virt-tail command itself, but the second commit includes a simple test. Rich.

This adds a new tool which does a follow operation (ie. tail -f) on one or more log/text files inside the guest. I've only done limited testing, but it works for me for tailing various long-running builds inside guests which I'm doing at the moment. There are no tests at present. Rich.

Since v2: - Fix the things that Pino mentioned, except the recursion. - Implement Windows support. For Windows support to be sane, I had to inline the add_and_mount code. Rich.

This implements most of RHBZ#1367738. I didn't bother with virt-v2v-copy-to-local and virt-win-reg, but all the other tools now have full bash completion. Rich.

Hi, we needed these changes when we had to build a guest image compatible with a starting guest image but not backed by it in any way? We needed some tool to check our progress, comparing original and? rebuilt (from scratch) images, and virt-diff seemed the best option, but? we had to soften the comparison to reduce the noise in the output. I added some options to ignore certain informations when

This is the same as the previous patch, but the partition type is now chosen automatically from mbr or gpt, unless the user expresses a preference. https://gb.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2012-January/msg00136.html Rich.

Changes since v1: - Removed libxl vncviewer related dependencies - The vncviewer function was modified to accept a domid instead of domspec; - main_vncviewer was updated to reflect the new use. - A domain_create structure is now passed to the parse_config_data where required/feasible (NULL otherwise) - xl restore now have long options for vncviewer/vncviewer-autopass; docs updated. - Updated

Hi, the following series adds a --key option in the majority of tools: this makes it possible to pass LUKS credentials programmatically, avoid the need to manually input them, or unsafely pass them via stdin. Thanks, Pino Toscano (2): mltools: create a cmdline_options struct Introduce a --key option in tools that accept keys builder/cmdline.ml | 2 +-

Wherever we had code which did: if (something_bad) { perror (...); exit (EXIT_FAILURE); } replace this with use of the error(3) function: if (something_bad) error (EXIT_FAILURE, errno, ...); The error(3) function is supplied by glibc, or by gnulib on platforms which don't have it, and is much more flexible than perror(3). Since we already use error(3), there seems to be

This two-part patch for supermin implements device trees (for ARM). The first patch introduces a more rational way to handle command line arguments in 'supermin-helper'. See the commit message for details. The old style is still supported for compatibility. The second patch adds an extra supermin-helper --dtb parameter specifying a wildcard. A device tree file which matches the

I''ve attached the preliminary patch to add vncviewer options to the ''xl create''. It applies cleanly against c/s 4e1d091d10d8. All feedback is welcome.

* PATCH FOR DISCUSSION ONLY - NOT TO BE APPLIED * Colin suggested something which seems eminently sensible: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=916780 I've been through a couple of rounds of trying to implement this. I started with adding the option as suggested to the guestmount program, but it tended to make the guestmount program more complex. More importantly, adding the option
