* Rewrite libguestfs-supermin-helper in C.Richard Jones2010-03-129-127/+963
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | libguestfs-supermin-helper was previously a shell script. Although we had steadily optimized it, there were a number of intractable hot spots: (1) cpio still reads input files in 512 byte chunks; this is *very* pessimal behaviour, particularly when SELinux is enabled. (2) the hostfiles globbing was done very inefficiently by the shell, with the shell rereading the same directory over and over again. This is a rewrite of this shell script in C. It is approximately 3 times faster without SELinux, and has an even greater speed difference with SELinux. The main features are: (a) It never frees memory, making it simpler. The program is designed to run and exit in sub-second times, so this is acceptable. (b) It caches directory reads, making the globbing of host files much faster (measured this as ~ 4 x speed up). (c) It doesn't use external cpio, but instead contains code to write newc format cpio files, which is all that the kernel can read. Unlike cpio, this code uses large buffers for reads and writes. (d) Ignores missing or unreadable hostfiles, whereas cpio gave a warning. (e) Checks all return values from system calls. (f) With --verbose flag, it will print messages timing itself. This passes all tests. Updated with feedback from Jim Meyering.
* guestfish: Use xstrtoll to parse Int params (RHBZ#569757 RHBZ#567567).Richard Jones2010-03-122-5/+5
| | | | | | Change guestfish so it uses xstrtoll to parse Int (31 bit) parameters. This fixes two bugs on 32 bit platforms which failed when long = 32 bits. long long = 64 bits on both.
* Special case hostfiles handling for libntfs-3g.soRichard Jones2010-03-121-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The ntfs-3g project keeps bumping their soname, and this causes dependency problems for the Fedora package. The root of the problem is we depend on /lib/libntfs-3g.so.<N>, but if <N> keeps bumping, the dependency keeps breaking. This commit changes the hostfiles (and hence dependency) to be on /lib/libntfs-3g.so.* instead. The downside to this is we could end up pulling more files into the appliance than are strictly required, but it will fix the Fedora packaging problems being felt by the Fedora maintainer of ntfs-3g.

* inspector: Read information about Windows guests from the Registry.Richard Jones2010-03-084-103/+113
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit changes substantially the way that we get information about Windows guests. We now use the Windows Registry to get information such as the version, product name and much else. This uses Win::Hivex (ie. the hivex library). 'reged' is no longer needed or used. As an incidental change, this also tries harder to search for %systemroot%, in the case when we cannot find boot.ini (ie. Windows Vista and more recent). This ensures we can get more detail from those versions of Windows.
* inspector: Add product_name field to output.Richard Jones2010-03-086-7144/+12150
| | | | | | This is a free text string containing the "product name" of the OS. It's mainly useful for Windows guests, and a forthcoming patch will get this field from the Windows Registry.

* More complete fix for bash regexp quoting bug.Richard Jones2010-03-021-9/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 457fccae1b665347 was not a complete fix, in that it didn't work properly on RHEL 5 era bash (3.2.x). For example: file=libntfs-3g.so.74 [[ "$file" =~ ^lib(.*)\.so\.([0-9]+)\. ]] && \ echo "lib${BASH_REMATCH[1]}.so.${BASH_REMATCH[2]}.*" would on those old shells print: libntfs-3g.so.7.* It seems the final \. was being treated as a plain period (ie. match anything). The only way to work around this incompatibility is to assign the patterns to variables and match on those, ie: p='^lib(.*)\.so\.([0-9]+)\.' [[ "$file" =~ $p ]] && ... This works in both old and new shells.

This also stops stray "builddir" (yum database) files being incorporated into supermin hostfiles in Koji (RHBZ#566512).

If there's an init script it uses 'service' or falls back to calling the init script directly if it isn't there, otherwise it starts udev directly. Tested on Debian only so far.

* Remove references to FTP, replace with FUSE.Richard Jones2010-02-153-10/+13
| | | | | | | We originally intended to implement an FTP server (and before than, an NFS server). But we didn't implement either. We did however implement a FUSE service (guestmount) which takes the place of both.
* Remove some unused variables.Richard Jones2010-02-153-4/+2
| | | | | | Since we have to compile with -Wno-unused-variables, we don't spot unused variables in code. I found these by compiling the code in Ubuntu.

* daemon: Don't need to prefix error messages with the command name.Richard Jones2010-02-1242-114/+117
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The RPC stubs already prefix the command name to error messages. The daemon doesn't have to do this. As a (small) benefit this also makes the daemon slightly smaller. Code in the daemon such as: if (argv[0] == NULL) { reply_with_error ("passed an empty list"); return NULL; } now results in error messages like this: ><fs> command "" libguestfs: error: command: passed an empty list (whereas previously you would have seen ..command: command:..)
* generator: Don't prefix error messages with command name.Richard Jones2010-02-121-11/+10
| | | | | | | The command name is already being added by the RPC stubs, so adding it again in Perl and C# just results in doubled error messages like: foo: foo: the error
* Sys::Guestfs::Lib::open_guest: Add interface parameter.Richard Jones2010-02-121-2/+15
| | | | This allows you to override the default QEMU block device emulation.
* Sys::Guestfs::Lib::open_guest: Remove freeform parameters.Richard Jones2010-02-121-6/+9
| | | | | | | | | Remove the ability to pass freeform parameters to Sys::Virt->new. We don't use it, it makes the code more complex to modify, and indeed there are no other args that Sys::Virt->new supports so this would never be used. Also change $readwrite to $rw to match parameter name.
* New APIs: add-drive{,-ro}-with-if allows you to set QEMU block emulation.Richard Jones2010-02-122-5/+44
| | | | | | | | | | | The default if=... comes from configure time (currently it defaults to if=virtio). This change allows you to set the QEMU block emulation. We don't think this will be used very often, but virt-v2v requires it in order to work around a subtle problem with running 'mkinitrd' in an appliance attached to a guest.

* Use mount-options instead of mount to avoid implicit -o sync.Richard Jones2010-02-1011-32/+47
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | guestfs_mount adds -o sync implicitly. This causes a very large performance problem for write-intensive programs (eg. virt-v2v). Document this as a "gotcha". Change the tests, guestfish, Sys::Guestfs::Lib, guestmount to use mount-options instead. (Note that this gotcha does not affect mount-ro). The source of the performance problem was first identified by Matthew Booth.
* Add -enable-kvm option to qemu command line.Richard Jones2010-02-091-0/+31
| | | | | | | | If the version of qemu being used supports -enable-kvm option, then check if /dev/kvm is openable and add this option. I have found this option makes no difference, although it is *supposed* to enable KVM (hardware virtualization) support.
