similar to: [PATCH 1/2] mlstdutils/mltools: factorize the machine-readable option

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 +-

Hi, this series refactors some guestfish code (not much), and exposes it via Common_utils, so it is possible to decrypt LUKS partitions when using virt-customize, virt-get-kernel, virt-sparsify, and virt-sysprep. This brings them closer in features with C tools. Most probably a couple more of other OCaml-based tools (virt-v2v to convert encrypted guests, and virt-builder to use encrypted

Hi, this adds the possibility to select the output for --machine-readable in OCaml tools. The possible choices are: * --machine-readable: to stdout, like before * --machine-readable=file:name-of-file: to the specified file * --machine-readable=stream:stdout: explicitly to stdout * --machine-readable=stream:stderr: explicitly to stderr This makes it possible to add additional output for

Hi, this is a first approach (hence RFC, since it misses tests & documentation) in selecting the output for --machine-readable. The possible choices are: * --machine-readable: to stdout, like before * --machine-readable=file:name-of-file: to the specified file * --machine-readable=stream:stdout: explicitly to stdout * --machine-readable=stream:stderr: explicitly to stderr This makes it

v1 -> v2: - Further fixes to Getopt int parsing. - Completed the L/S changes. - Fixed the test suite so it passes now. Also we don't need the special-case tests for 64 bit arch. Rich.

v3 -> v4: - Pushed the first patch upstream since it was ACKed. - Prevent use of M except for the special virt-v2v options. - Sort the options after added --help etc. - Make corresponding fixes to the tests. Rich.

v2 -> v3: - Add M variant and test it. Rich.

Add a new Getopt module to mllib, to parse command line arguments with handlers close to the ones used with Arg, but using getopt(3) (actually getopt_long_only) to do the real parsing. This allow us to provide options for OCaml tools with a syntax similar to the C tools, and use the additional features getopt offers and Arg does not. Do a single-step conversion of Common_utils and all the OCaml

Some simple refactoring of virt-resize. I originally had the idea that we could turn virt-resize into a library (cf. virt-customize) and use it from virt-builder, but I now don't think that would make any meaningful difference. In particular we'd still have to open the handle the same number of times. These two patches are left over from my work on that. Rich.

Make use of the additional command line arguments, and API needed to decrypt LUKS partitions. This extends to v2v the work done in other OCaml tools with commit 6b26a0cce4f1d6264bee88902b8931e39288c901, since it seems to be working fine after a basic testing.

This still isn't working at the moment. See: http://marc.info/?t=139457409300003&r=1&w=2 This set of patches: - Adds new APIs to support discard in libguestfs. - Adds discard support to virt-format. - Adds discard support to virt-sysprep. - Implements virt-sparsify --in-place. Rich.

The second patch is obviously not complete yet - for discussion only. Rich.

Make use of the helper provided by Tools_utils.create_standard_options, so there is no need to implement the logic in each tool. This affects all the OCaml tools with --machine-readable, namely: virt-builder, virt-builder-repository, virt-dib, virt-get-kernel, virt-resize, virt-sparsify, and virt-v2v. --- builder/cmdline.ml | 8 ++------ builder/repository_main.ml | 6 ++----

This allow us to provide options for OCaml tools with a syntax similar to the C tools, and use the additional features getopt offers and Arg does not. Getopt now handles every part of the command line handling,

Instead of returning directly a Getopt.t handle, now Tools_utils.create_standard_options returns a struct, which at the moment contains only the Getopt.t handle. This way, it will be easy to add more data needed for handling standard command line options. This is mostly refactoring, with no functional changes. --- builder/cmdline.ml | 2 +- builder/repository_main.ml

Make use of the additional command line arguments, and API needed to decrypt LUKS partitions. This affects only virt-customize, virt-get-kernel, virt-sparsify, and virt-sysprep, as they are the main OCaml tools interacting with user-provided images. --- customize/customize_main.ml | 5 ++++- customize/virt-customize.pod | 12 ++++++++++++ get-kernel/get_kernel.ml | 5 ++++-

Hi, I tried to rewrite virt-rescue from C to OCaml. Goals were feature parity with C implementation, smaller codebase and hopefully better maintainability. I still don't know if I've covered everything right. So, please check it out. PS: my git send-email seems to be broken, so I'm sending it from thunderbird Thanks! maros

Introduce a new common helper to add the common options for libguestfs tools (short/long options, version, verbose, trace), and sort them. All the OCaml-based tools had these options already, so there are no functional changes in the interface they provide. The only difference is that now the options are always sorted, while some tools didn't had them like that previously: because of this, a

Introduce a new type of option with an optional string argument. --- common/mltools/getopt-c.c | 20 +++++++++++++++++++- common/mltools/getopt.ml | 5 ++++- common/mltools/getopt.mli | 4 ++++ common/mltools/getopt_tests.ml | 18 +++++++++++++++++- common/mltools/test-getopt.sh | 11 +++++++++++ 5 files changed, 55 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git
