However some existing functions had names which shadowed existing
functions in the List module, so I had to rename them:
assoc -> List.assoc_lbl
append -> List.push_back_list
prepend -> List.push_front_list
This is an extension of the previous commit.
The C function mkdtemp(3) requires that the string ends with 6 'X'
characters, so appending a non-empty suffix causes the function to
raise EINVAL.
Luckily we only ever called this function with the last parameter "".
The new module ‘Std_utils’ contains only functions which are pure
OCaml and depend only on the OCaml stdlib. Therefore these functions
may be used by the generator.
The new module is moved to ‘common/mlstdutils’.
This also removes the "<stdlib>" hack, and the code which copied the
library around.
Also ‘Guestfs_config’, ‘Libdir’ and ‘StringMap’ modules are moved
since these are essentially the same.
The bulk of this change is just updating files which use
‘open Common_utils’ to add ‘open Std_utils’ where necessary.
Concatenate six small modules containing Unix/POSIX library call
bindings into a single module called Unix_utils.
The previous modules and the library functions bound were:
- Dev_t: makedev(3), major(3), minor(3)
- Exit: _exit(2)
- Fnmatch: fnmatch(3)
- Fsync: sync(2)
- Mkdtemp: mkdtemp(3)
- StatVFS: statvfs(2)
Add a new Getopt module to mllib, to parse command line arguments with
handlers close to the ones used with Arg, but using getopt(3) (actually
getopt_long_only) to do the real parsing. This allow us to provide
options for OCaml tools with a syntax similar to the C tools, and use
the additional features getopt offers and Arg does not.
Getopt now handles every part of the command line handling, including
the output of short & long options.
Do a single-step conversion of Common_utils and all the OCaml tools to
the syntax of Getopt.
Move a couple of utility functions from Common_utils to Getopt, since
they fit better there (and Common_utils cannot be used in Getopt, as
the former already uses the latter).
As side-change due to the conversion, extra arguments for sysprep
operation can have more keys for the same argument.
virt-customize:
virt-sparsify:
virt-sysprep:
virt-v2v:
- These tools consistently used -v to mean verbose/debugging
and -x to mean enable libguestfs tracing.
virt-builder:
virt-resize:
- These two tools did not recognize -x at all, and used -v
to enable libguestfs tracing and general debugging.
- This commit changes these two tools to consume -v/-x
consistently with the other tools.
Unfortunately this has a cascade of effects through the code.
Previously callbacks would return a list of flags, such as []
or [`Created_files].
In this commit we introduce two new objects, filesystem_side_effects
and device_side_effects (the latter is not used yet).
The callbacks that create files now need to call
side_effects#created_file ()
instead of returning flags.
There is no functional change in this patch.
It now appears in the respective man pages as:
--root-password selector
or:
--password selector
This avoids confusion from people who think these command line options
take the password directly.
- Use 'op' instead of 'xxx_op' for operation table.
- Add a 'defaults' for the operation table and remove any default
values.
This is just code motion and there is no functional change.
Operations that need to work directly on guest block devices will fail
because the block devices are busy. Therefore add a phase with the
filesystems unmounted, and allow operations to specify that they need
to work in this phase.
Note that this support is optional: To enable it, install the
ocaml-gettext library from
http://forge.ocamlcore.org/projects/ocaml-gettext . If this library
is not installed, then configure detects this and inserts dummy
gettext functions that do nothing.
All current operations are enabled by default.
Also:
* The POD description is split into a heading and the description body.
* An 'enabled_by_default' flag is added to the structure.
