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.
section.
Ensure each man page contains consistent COPYRIGHT and AUTHOR
sections.
Remove the LICENSE section. We will add that back in podwrapper in a
later commit.
Since our minimum supported version is now 1.16 and mount was fixed in
1.13.16, it is now safe to replace mount-options + empty options with
mount wherever it occurs.
In libguestfs 1.20, you will be able to use 'add_drive'
instead of 'add_drive_opts' (except in the C bindings).
However until libguestfs 1.20 is the minimum stable version
people will still be using old versions where you have to use
'add_drive_opts'. This makes the examples confusing.
Therefore continue to use 'add_drive_opts' in the examples
for now.
By using the once_had_no_optargs flag, this change is backwards
compatible for callers (except Haskell, PHP and GObject as discussed
in earlier commit).
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
'del g' is a trap for the unwary. If the handle has any other
references, it does nothing (in fact, it can be actively dangerous if
the user was expecting the appliance to go away). In non-CPython it
can be delayed arbitrarily long.
Using 'g.close()' on the other hand is always safe.
Fix guestfish (and other C tools) so that they ignore errors
when /etc/fstab contains bogus entries.
Update the documentation for inspect-get-mountpoints to emphasize
that callers must be aware of this when mounting the returned
values.
Add a regression test.
Update the example code ("inspect_vm") to reflect the way this
API ought to be called.
