*	daemon: collect list of called external commands	Olaf Hering	2012-08-30	1	-9/+15
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	guestfsd calls many different tools. Keeping track of all of them is error prone. This patch introduces a new helper macro to put the command string into its own ELF section: GUESTFSD_EXT_CMD(C_variable, command_name); This syntax makes it still possible to grep for used command names. The actual usage of the collected list could be like this: objcopy -j .guestfsd_ext_cmds -O binary daemon/guestfsd /dev/stdout \| tr '\0' '\n' \| sort -u The resulting output will be used to tell mkinitrd which programs to copy into the initrd. Signed-off-by: Olaf Hering <olaf@aepfle.de> RWMJ: - Move str_vgchange at request of author. - Fix snprintf call in daemon/debug.c

*	New APIs: compress-out, compress-device-out.	Richard W.M. Jones	2011-09-28	1	-0/+207
	These APIs let you copy compressed files or devices out from the disk image. Compression is useful for large images which are mostly zeroes. We cannot currently do sparseness detection, and compression gives us a form of zero detection for free. Example usage: $ guestfish --ro -a /dev/vg_pin/F16x64 -i \ compress-out gzip /etc/passwd /tmp/passwd.gz $ file -z /tmp/passwd.gz /tmp/passwd.gz: ASCII text (gzip compressed data, was "passwd", from Unix, last modified: Sun Aug 28 14:40:46 2011)
