Run this command across the source:
perl -pi.bak -e 's/(20[012][0-9])-20[12][012]/$1-2023/g' `git ls-files`
and remove changes to po{,-docs}/*.po{,t} (these will be regenerated
later when we run 'make dist').
Also rename the function 'uuidgen ()' (conflicts with a same-named
function in Common_utils) to 'stable_uuid'. Notice that the UUID is
now only computed once per run of the generator, whereas previously
the same value was computed over and over again.
Run the following command over the source:
perl -pi.bak -e 's/(20[01][0-9])-2016/$1-2017/g' `git ls-files`
(Thanks Rich for the perl snippet, as used in past years.)
For a very long time we have maintained two sets of utility functions,
in mllib/common_utils.ml and generator/utils.ml. This changes things
so that the same set of utility functions can be shared with both
directories.
It's not possible to use common_utils.ml directly in the generator
because it provides several functions that use modules outside the
OCaml stdlib. Therefore we add some lightweight post-processing which
extracts the functions using only the stdlib:
(*<stdlib>*)
...
(*</stdlib>*)
and creates generator/common_utils.ml and generator/common_utils.mli
from that. The effect is we only need to write utility functions
once.
As with other tools, we still have generator-specific utility
functions in generator/utils.ml.
Also in this change:
- Use String.uppercase_ascii and String.lowercase_ascii in place
of deprecated String.uppercase/String.lowercase.
- Implement String.capitalize_ascii to replace deprecated
String.capitalize.
- Move isspace, isdigit, isxdigit functions to Char module.
Previously we had a list of UEFI paths in src/uefi.c, which was
accessed in virt-v2v using a private (guestfs_int_*) API and some C
binding code. This was clumsy and required the paths to be replicated
in the virt-v2v unit tests.
Instead just generate the list of paths from the generator, creating
src/uefi.c and v2v/uefi.ml with the same content.
Remove the C bindings and the virt-v2v unit tests associated with UEFI
paths.
This is a simple renaming of the files/modules.
Note that in OCaml, module names are derived from filenames by
capitalizing the first letter. Thus the old module names had the form
"Generator_api_versions". The new modules names have the form
"Api_versions".
