This file is mainly a central place to:
- include localenv if it exists, and
- define the RHEL 5 backwards compatibility macros, instead of
spreading them over every other file.

This is a subset of tests which will be required to pass before a
tarball can be released by the maintainer.

(cherry picked from commit 2400c6ff08)
This runs all of the check* rules. Since this includes 'make check',
'make check-all' is not quite equivalent to 'make extra-tests'.
Cherry picked from commit 0a60332e1b
and modified because make extra-tests has not been removed from
this stable branch.
(cherry picked from commit 5e2dec4022)
Rules such as 'make check-valgrind' are implemented using a for-loop.
They would always exit after the first error, even if 'make -k' was
used at the top-level. Since 'make -k'-style behaviour is generally
more useful, change these for-loops so they run all the tests, and
report errors at the end.

qemu-wrapper isn't regenerated if QEMUDIR is changed, so just
delete it and force regeneration.
Additionally we can drop the silent binary check, since
check-with-upstream-qemu-1 already does a similar test with --version
that will actually report an error to the user.
(cherry picked from commit 63c324e6c4)
If you want to selectively run tests, or if the test suite fails half
way through, use:
make print-subdirs
to print the subdirectories, select the ones you want to run / the
remaining ones, and do:
make check SUBDIRS="..."
(cherry picked from commit a34072e25b)
'make extra-tests' was a monolithic set of tests that did all sorts of
things: valgrind, tests over local guests, tests with upstream qemu,
tests with upstream libvirt, tests with the appliance attach method.
This made it hard to perform individual tests, eg. just valgrind
testing. It was also hard to maintain because the tests were not
located in the same directories as the programs and sometimes
duplicated tests that were run elsewhere.
This commit splits up 'make extra-tests' into 5 separate targets:
make check-valgrind # run a subset of tests under valgrind
make check-valgrind-local-guests # test under valgrind with local guests
make check-with-appliance # test with attach-method == appliance
make check-with-upstream-qemu # test with an alternate/upstream qemu
make check-with-upstream-libvirt # test with an alternate/upstream libvirt
(You can also still run 'make extra-tests' which is now simply
a rule that runs the above 5 targets in order).
This replaces everything that was in the tests/extra directory,
so that has now gone.
New APIs: set-tmpdir, get-tmpdir, set-cachedir, get-cachedir.
The current code has evolved over time and has a number of problems:
(a) A single environment variable ($TMPDIR) controls the
location of several directories.
(b) It's hard for the library user to predict which directory
libguestfs will use, unless the user simulates the same internal steps
that libguestfs performs.
This commit fixes these issues.
(a) Now three environment variables control the location of all small
temporary files, and the appliance cache:
For temporary files: $LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR or $TMPDIR or /tmp.
For the appliance cache: $LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR or $TMPDIR or /var/tmp.
The user can also set these directories explicitly through API calls
(guestfs_set_tmpdir and guestfs_set_cachedir).
(b) The user can also retrieve the actual directories that libguestfs
will use, by calling guestfs_get_tmpdir and guestfs_get_cachedir.
These functions are also used internally.
This commit also:
- reworks the internal tmpdir code
- removes the internal (undocumented) guestfs_tmpdir call (replacing
it with calls to the documented guestfs_get_tmpdir API instead)
- changes the ./run script to set LIBGUESTFS_TMPDIR and
LIBGUESTFS_CACHEDIR
- adds a test
- fixes a few places like libguestfs-make-fixed-appliance which
depended on $TMPDIR
When libvirt is used, we can allow disks to be hotplugged.
guestfs_add_drive can be called after launch to hot-add a disk.
When a disk is hot-added, we first ask libvirt to add the disk to the
appliance, then we make an internal call into the appliance to get it
to wait for the disk to appear (ie. udev_settle ()).
Hot-added disks are tracked in the g->drives array.
This also adds a test.
New API: list-disk-labels
Allow the user to pass an optional disk label when adding a drive.
This is passed through to qemu / libvirt using the disk serial field,
and from there to the appliance which exposes it through udev,
creating a special alias of the device /dev/disk/guestfs/<label>.
Partitions are named /dev/disk/guestfs/<label><partnum>.
virtio-blk and virtio-scsi limit the serial field to 20 bytes. We
further limit the name to maximum 20 ASCII characters in [a-zA-Z].
list-devices and list-partitions are not changed: these calls still
return raw block device names. However a new call, list-disk-labels,
returns a hash table allowing callers to map between disk labels, and
block device and partition names.
This commit also includes a test.
Having a separate directory means:
(1) It's easy to clean up orphaned temporary files, the appliance,
etc.
(2) You can put an SELinux label on this directory so that qemu can
write to it when you're using sVirt and SELinux is enforcing:
chcon --reference=/tmp tmp
This adds standard LICENSE and BUGS sections to all of the man pages
that are processed by podwrapper.
Modify all the calls to $(PODWRAPPER) to add the right --license
parameter according to the content. Note that this relaxes the
license on some code example pages, making them effectively BSD-style
licensed.
