In OCaml 4.06 we need to link to daemon to libasmrun_pic.a (the OCaml
runtime linked with -fPIC). Otherwise you will see many errors like
this:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(startup_aux.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(startup.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against symbol `caml_data_segments' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(fail.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against symbol `caml_exn_Failure' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/ocaml/libasmrun.a(roots.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against symbol `caml_frametable' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
This commit use a configure-time test to find the best OCaml runtime.
Remove two wrong error handling situations in btrfs_balance_status:
- if the calloc for 'ret' fails, the 'goto error' would try to
dereference the resulting null pointer (to free the items of the
return struct); hence, just return null directly, instead of jumping
to 'error'
- if the strdup() for 'btrfsbalance_status' fails, then the directly
return would leak 'ret'
When the LDM code was converted to the CLEANUP_* macros, a free()
invocation for a CLEANUP_FREE variable was left in the
ldmtool_diskgroup_volumes implementation, causing double-free on
success.
Updates commit 950951c67d.
Make use of parse_key_value_strings to slightly simplify the parsing of
mdadm output, and the parsing of os-release, and lsb-release files.
In particular, the parsing of lsb-release is simplified a lot, bringing
it much like the parsing of os-release.
Add a simple helper to turn a list of strings into key/value pairs,
splitting by '=', with the possibility to apply a function to unquote
values.
Add also a simple unquote function.
In case os-release does not contain VERSION_ID, and it is not an
exception (like Void Linux), then discard the results got from
os-release.
This matches what the old C code did -- e.g. see
commit 32d19e3289, and the changes in
commit 0251c0fcaa.
Inspired by ocaml-extlib, introduce a module for handling option
types.
We already had the ‘may’ function (which becomes ‘Option.may’). This
adds also ‘Option.map’ (unused), and ‘Option.default’ functions.
Note this does *not* introduce the unsafe ‘Option.get’ function from
extlib.
If you have a struct containing ‘field’, eg:
type t = { field : int }
then previously to pattern-match on this type, eg. in function
parameters, you had to write:
let f { field = field } =
(* ... use field ... *)
In OCaml >= 3.12 it is possible to abbreviate cases where the field
being matched and the variable being bound have the same name, so now
you can just write:
let f { field } =
(* ... use field ... *)
(Similarly for a field prefixed by a Module name you can use
‘{ Module.field }’ instead of ‘{ Module.field = field }’).
This style is widely used inside the OCaml compiler sources, and is
briefer than the long form, so it makes sense to use it. Furthermore
there was one place in virt-dib where we are already using this new
style, so the old code did not compile on OCaml < 3.12.

common/mlutils: Unix_utils.StatVFS.statvfs: This commit implements a
full-featured binding for the statvfs(3) function.
We then use this to reimplement the daemon statvfs API in OCaml.
Note that the Gnulib fallback is dropped in this commit. It
previously referenced non-existent field names in the fs_usage struct
so it didn't work. Also it's not necessary as POSIX has supported
statvfs(3) since 2001, it's supported in *BSD, macOS > 10.4, and there
is already a Windows fallback.
Define the types which will be used to communicate between the
different parts of the inspection code. The main types are:
fs corresponds to ‘struct inspect_fs’ in C code
root no direct correspondence with the C code, but in the C
code, ‘inspect_fs’ was overloaded to store roots
inspection_data
the inspection data which is incrementally collected about
each filesystem as we perform inspection steps
Other types have simple and obvious correspondences with the
equivalent C code.
Add some utility function which will be used by inspection.
Note that this commit has no effect on its own, it just links extra
dead code into the daemon.
Unlike previous ‘daemon: Reimplement ...’ patches, this does not
reimplement the umount_all API completely (yet, but this
implementation could be completed in future and then replace the C
one). However it is necessary to have a version of umount_all which
we can call from the OCaml inspection code.
hivex has a function hivex_value_string. We were not calling it under
the mistaken belief that because hivex implements this using iconv,
the function wouldn't work inside the daemon. Instead we
reimplemented the functionality in the library.
This commit deprecates hivex_value_utf8 and removes the library side
code. It replaces it with a plain wrapper around hivex_value_string.

This commit bundles the ocaml-augeas library (upstream here:
http://git.annexia.org/?p=ocaml-augeas.git;a=summary). It's identical
to the upstream version and should remain so.
We can work towards using system ocaml-augeas, when it's more widely
available.
These are generated in many different ways in the various
subdirectories, and sometimes not generated correctly. Introduce a
script to do this in one place, and hopefully correctly.
This is mostly simple refactoring, but I got rid of a couple of
things:
(1) The ‘make depend’ rule doesn't appear to be needed. automake (or
make?) seems to rebuild the ‘.depend’ file automatically just because
it is included.
(2) I got rid of the hairy path rewriting sed expression. Possibly
that is needed for srcdir != builddir.
All sorts of strings might be passed here hoping to make them
canonical LV names. We cannot be sure that the strings passed will be
devices which exist in the appliance.
For Device parameters we expect a block device name. However we were
only testing for "/dev/..." and so chardevs (from the appliance) could
be passed here, resulting in strange effects. This adds a function
is_device_parameter which tests for a valid block device name.
For Dev_or_Path parameters much the same, except we can also use the
is_device_parameter function elsewhere in the daemon to distinguish if
we were called with a device or path parameter. Previously we used a
simple test if the path begins with "/dev/...".
Reported by Mathieu Tarral.
The following functions were previously reimplemented in OCaml. This
commit replaces them with calls to the C functions:
- is_root_device
- prog_exists
- udev_settle
plus the internal get_verbose_flag function.
However note that we cannot do this for every utility function. In
particular the C function must not call any reply* functions.
When parts of the daemon were previously converted to OCaml, the
previous PCRE regexps were converted to Str regexps. Restore the
original PCRE regexps.
There was also one case where an original call to glob(3) was replaced
by a Str regexp, and this is replaced by a PCRE regexp (although it is
in fact identical in this instance).
This updates commit b48da89dd6
and commit eeda6edca1
and commit 2ca0fa778d.
This also reimplements the lv_canonical function in OCaml. We cannot
call the original C function because it calls reply_with_perror which
would break the OCaml bindings.
Move the list_filesystems API into the daemon, reimplementing it in
OCaml. Since this API makes many other API calls, it runs a lot
faster in the daemon.
