* syntax: Remove gnulib "ignore-value.h" in files that don't use it.Richard W.M. Jones2012-09-151-1/+0
| | | | Found by 'make syntax-check'.
* lib: Rearrange headers.Richard W.M. Jones2012-09-151-5/+4
| | | | This is just code motion.
* lib: Remove unused headers <arpa/inet.h> and <netinet/in.h>Richard W.M. Jones2012-09-151-2/+0
| | | | | These were used back in the day when we used TCP for the communications channel with the guest.
* syntax: Remove HAVE_*_H tests which are always true.Richard W.M. Jones2012-09-151-19/+3
| | | | | Gnulib supplies replacements for these headers, so there is no need to test.
* shutdown: Add 'check_for_errors' hint along the shutdown path.Richard W.M. Jones2012-09-041-3/+16
| | | | | | | | This hint tells the backend whether anyone cares about errors when the appliance is shut down. Currently this only has any effect on the libvirt backend, where it controls whether or not we use the VIR_DOMAIN_DESTROY_GRACEFUL flag.
* close: Check if g->tmpdir is non-NULL before removing tmpdir.Richard W.M. Jones2012-08-151-1/+2
| | | | This happens, by chance, to work.
* New internal APIs: internal-test-set-output, internal-test-close-output.Richard W.M. Jones2012-08-151-0/+4
| | | | | | | | These internal (testing) APIs allow the bindtests output to be sent to some other place than stdout. This is necessary for Erlang, since stdout is used to communicate with the Erlang interpreter.
* lib: Initialize libvirt and libxml2 once when the library loads.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-231-0/+36
|
* launch: Allow default attach-method to be set in environment or configure.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-231-6/+35
| | | | | | | | | | You can now choose the default attach method in two ways: (1) Set the LIBGUESTFS_ATTACH_METHOD environment variable. (2) ./configure --with-default-attach-method=appliance|libvirt|... Note that (1) overrides (2).
* Add attach-method "libvirt" or "libvirt:<URI>".Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-211-0/+17
| | | | | With this commit, you can set the attach method to libvirt, but calling launch will give an error.
* launch: Abstract attach method operations.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-201-45/+2
| | | | | | g->attach_ops points to a structure which contains the operations supported by each attach method backend (ie. appliance, unix, etc.).
* launch: Move the command line building code entirely into launch-appliance.c.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-201-8/+0
| | | | | Although we still use the handle as convenient temporary storage.
* launch: Move guestfs_config API and build list of qemu parameters in handle.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-201-0/+9
| | | | | | Move and rewrite guestfs_config so it accumulates a list of qemu parameters in the handle. These are added to the appliance at launch time (with attach method == unix:... you'll now get an error).
* lib: Use safe_asprintf when constructing attach_method.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-191-3/+1
| | | | Just a small code cleanup / simplification.
* New API: guestfs_shutdown: Cleanly shutdown the backend.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-031-39/+64
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The new API splits orderly close into a two-step process: if (guestfs_shutdown (g) == -1) { /* handle the error, eg. qemu error */ } guestfs_close (g); Note that the explicit shutdown step is only necessary in the case where you have made changes to the disk image and want to handle write errors. Read the documentation for further information. This change also: - deprecates guestfs_kill_subprocess - turns guestfs_kill_subprocess into the same as guestfs_shutdown - changes guestfish and other tools to call shutdown + close where necessary (not for read-only tools) - updates documentation - updates examples
* close: Warn if qemu exits unsuccessfully.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-031-1/+19
| | | | | Currently guestfs_close has no method to return an error indication, so this commit simply prints the error on stderr.
* close: Rearrange the order in which the handle is closed and freed.Richard W.M. Jones2012-07-031-33/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The order is now: - remove the handle from the list of handles - send close trace message - sync and shutdown qemu - run user close callback - free temporary directory - free memory This commit ought to be no functional change.
* New API: guestfs_canonical_device_name.Richard W.M. Jones2012-06-131-0/+23
| | | | This API makes device names canonical, eg. /dev/vda1 -> /dev/sda1.
* Record output of qemu -device '?'.Richard W.M. Jones2012-06-121-0/+1
| | | | | This allows us to find out what qemu devices are supported at runtime.
* arm: Set minimum LIBGUESTFS_MEMSIZE at 128.Richard W.M. Jones2012-05-121-1/+1
| | | | | | | | For ARM Versatile ("versatilepb") architecture, memsize must be set to 256 (megabytes) else the appliance is unable to boot. Previously setting LIBGUESTFS_MEMSIZE=256 was not allowed. Versatile Express has larger limits.
* New APIs: mount-local, mount-local-run, umount-local (FUSE support in the API).Richard W.M. Jones2012-03-291-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | Add FUSE support directly to the API. Instead of needing to use the external 'guestmount' command, you can mount the libguestfs filesystem space on a local mountpoint using an API call from any language. Note that although mount-local-run is marked as Cancellable, the current implementation does not support it, but it would be relatively simple to add it.
* lib: Use size_t for allocation size in safe realloc function.Richard W.M. Jones2012-03-121-1/+1
|
* Ignore return values from some functions in guestfs_close (Coverity warning).Richard W.M. Jones2012-03-081-2/+3

* set-smp: limit the number of cpus below 255Wanlong Gao2012-02-251-1/+4
| | | | | | Limit the number of cpus below 255, since qemu can't support. Signed-off-by: Wanlong Gao <gaowanlong@cn.fujitsu.com>
* Enable running the daemon under valgrind.Richard W.M. Jones2012-01-241-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit allows you to run the daemon under valgrind. You have to enable it at configure time: ./configure --enable-valgrind-daemon This should *not* be done for production builds. When this feature is enabled, valgrind is added to the appliance and the daemon is run under valgrind. Log messages from valgrind are passed back over a virtio-serial channel into a file called 'valgrind.log.$PID' in the top build directory. Running 'make check', 'make extra-tests' etc causes many valgrind.log.* files to be created which must be examined by hand.
* Tempus fugit.Richard W.M. Jones2012-01-181-1/+1
| | | | Update all copyright dates to 2012.
* lib: Add guestfs___remove_tmpdir helper function.Richard W.M. Jones2011-12-231-39/+2
| | | | | | | This function does 'rm -rf <dir>' for temporary directories, safely working if '<dir>' contains shell meta-characters. Replace existing code for removing directories with this.
* lib: Fix memory leak when debugging enabled (found by valgrind).Richard W.M. Jones2011-11-241-0/+2
| | | | | If you enabled debugging (eg. LIBGUESTFS_DEBUG=1) then every debug message printed would be leaked.
* inspect: Add drive naming hintsMatthew Booth2011-10-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | We currently use a heuristic to guess how drive names we find referenced in the guest map to drive names in the appliance. If this heuristic fails it can cause inspection to fail. This change adds a new 'name' option to add_drive_opts, which allows the user to explicitly pass the name of a drive to libguestfs if it is known. This change also updates the fstab-parsing inspection code to use this information if it is available.
* launch: Store drive information in guestfs_hMatthew Booth2011-10-191-0/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is a NFC on its own, but provides a place-holder for drive metadata which can be used after launch. Fixes by RWMJ: - Fix the tests: this requires a new internal function 'debug-drives' that dumps out the g->drives information so it can be checked in two of the tests. Previously these tests used 'debug-cmdline'. - Test file existence / use_cache_off in the add_drive_opts function, not when launching qemu in the child process. - Call free along error paths. - Add comments.
* New API: set-smp, get-smpRichard W.M. Jones2011-09-281-0/+21
| | | | | | | These calls allow you to change the number of virtual CPUs assigned to the appliance. This also adds a --smp option to virt-rescue.
* daemon: Remove separate configure of daemon subdirectory.Richard W.M. Jones2011-08-051-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Combine the two Gnulib instances together. Add checks from old daemon/configure.ac into configure.ac. Fix daemon/Makefile.am so it is like a normal subdirectory Makefile.am. Because we are now using the replacement strerror_r function from Gnulib (instead of the one from glibc directly), this requires a small change to src/guestfs.c.
* Add user cancellation to the C API.Richard W.M. Jones2011-07-151-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | This allows long transfers (FileIn and FileOut operations) to be cancelled by calling the signal and thread safe guestfs_user_cancel function. Most of this commit consists of a multithreaded program that tests user cancellation of uploads and downloads.
* New APIs: set-pgroup, get-pgroupRichard W.M. Jones2011-07-151-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | If the pgroup flag is set in the handle, then the qemu and recovery subprocesses are placed in separate process groups. The default is false. The purpose for setting up a process group is that ^C will not be passed from the main process down to these processes (killing them). This allows ^C and other keyboard events to be caught and handled in the main process.
* Add a trace message to guestfs_close.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-301-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | Only the "first half" (ie. the call) is traced, because by the time the function returns the handle has gone and there's no way to generate events. You should see: libguestfs: trace: close
* internal: Use size_t instead of int for command line size.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-301-1/+1
|
* guestfs_close: Move local variables close to code that uses them.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-301-3/+4
| | | | This is just code motion.
* guestfs_close: Remove unused local variable.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-301-2/+1
|
* Remove temporary directory containing arbitrary files.Richard W.M. Jones2011-04-131-9/+40
| | | | | | | | In preparation for caching inspection information in the temporary directory (g->tmpdir), allow the temporary directory to contain arbitrary files, and remove all of them when the handle is closed. This just generalizes the previous method of cleaning up the tmpdir.
* Rename $tmpdir/sock to $tmpdir/guestfsd.sock.Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | No functional change; this simply makes the purpose of the socket clearer. Notes: Labels: cleanup
* New event API (RHBZ#664558).Richard W.M. Jones2011-03-151-57/+90
| | | | | | | | | | | | | This API allows more than one callback to be registered for each event, makes it possible to call the API from other languages, and allows [nearly all] log, debug and trace messages to be rerouted from stderr. An older version of this API was discussed on the mailing list here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2010-December/msg00081.html https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2011-January/msg00012.html This also updates guestfish to use the new API for its progress bars.
* New APIs: guestfs_first_private, guestfs_next_private to walk overRichard W.M. Jones2011-03-151-0/+41
| | | | | | | | the private data area. This commit adds new APIs for walking over the keys and pointers in the private data area associated with each handle (note this is only applicable to the C API).
* check the pid is > 0 before calling waitpid()Angus Salkeld2011-03-151-1/+1
| | | | Signed-off-by: Angus Salkeld <asalkeld@redhat.com>
* New APIs: set-attach-method, get-attach-method.Richard W.M. Jones2011-02-031-0/+45
| | | | | | | | | | These allow you to get and set the attach method. The format is one of: * appliance * unix:<path> It's stored broken out into an enum and a string in the handle.
* Add a new internal-autosync API to perform autosync.Richard W.M. Jones2011-01-281-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | Instead of explicitly calling umount-all; sync, we add a daemon function called internal-autosync which does the same. Apart from slightly simplifying the process of closing the handle, the main advantage is we can modify the daemon for the standalone case so that internal-autosync does not do the umount-all operation.
* generator: trace mode prints return values.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-171-0/+6
|
* lib: Add safe_asprintf function.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-131-0/+16
|
* lib: Make pcre, libmagic and hivex libraries optional.Richard Jones2010-11-101-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change makes these libraries optional. If they are not available at compile time then certain core API features will be disabled (see below). This also changes PCRE detection to use pkg-config instead of the ad hoc autoconf checks. The large inspect.c file has been split out into separate function-specific files. file-architecture: requires pcre & libmagic inspection: requires pcre & hivex
* lib: Expose errno through new API guestfs_last_errno.Richard W.M. Jones2010-11-031-4/+17
| | | | | | | If either the daemon sends back an errno, or a system call fails in the library, save the errno in the handle and then make it available to callers through the guestfs_last_errno function.
* Enable autosync by default.Richard W.M. Jones2010-10-271-0/+1
